The New York Sun, under head OF
"Great Danger" sounds the following
alarm in double-leaded editorial:
The water in the upper Hudson has
been lower than ever before since the
settlement Of the State by white mon.
Rocks and sand bars never seen G.
fore have appeared above the surface.
Navigation has been greatly impeded,
and river commerce above Troy has
suffered. The great waterway of
the State is endangered by the invas-
ion Of the Adirondacks by large lum-
bering firms. Operations are conduct
ed on an enormous scale, and the
headwaters Of the Hudson are being
stripped of pine and spruce. There
must be no delay by the authorities in
taking energetic action if the Hud-
son is to be saved.

Tim Townsend has six arastras run
ming to their full capacity. From Q
mill wright who assisted in putting
up the machinery we have some par
ticulars regarding the novel appara-
.tus, which is Mr.. Townsend's own in
vention. The arastras are placed in
little sandy fiat, where only water
for drinking purposes and to moisten
the ore operated upon is to be OBJ
tanned. The arastras are actually OPP
Grated by sand, which drives a large
over-shot wheel. On this wheel sand
takes the place of water. 1t was at
first Mr.. Townsend's intention to run
the arastra by means of large wind
mill or windwheel, but as this wheel
would run too slow at times, a. other
times so fast as to be liable to tear
everything to pieces, and again would
not run at all, he hit upon regula-
tor. This regulator is sand, a great
pile Of which has been raked up to
the works. The windmill runs belt
containing great number Of buck
cts, and these carry the sand up to
big tank, just as grain elevators car
ny. wheat in Touring mill. A stream
Of sand being let out over the over
shot wheel, itrevolves just as it would
under the weight of a stream of wa
ter, and the arastras move steadily on
at their work. When there is much |
wind sand is stored up for use when
calm prevails, SO the arastras are new
eridle. After sufficient quantity OF
sand has once been accumulated, there
IS no moro trouble on that score, the
same sand being used over and oyor.

How the southern PaciGc was Bnilf.

How the Southern Pacific was HALT
"a correspondent Of the San Fran
cisco Exchange says; Viewed By
Itself, the Southern Pacific was a mir.
acle Of enterprise, daring and persis,
tency, and was built in the face Of
obstacles and disadvantages that
would have crushed any but Western
spirits. It crosses the mountains by
the most wonderful tricks Of any en-
gineer's audacity, crossing and re-
crossing its own tracks and curling its
iron loops about the Tehachipi peak
until the track lies on it like . alariat
thrown BY Titanic hands. It crosses
leagues upon Leagues Of desert that
any century will not SEQ reclaimed
from its waste Of sands; stretches
through tho bed Of an ancient lake
wherc the barometer shows deprcs-
sion Of three hundred feet below the
level OF tho seq, and pursues it's
straight course across an arid country
where dew or rain is seldom known
and water cannot be found. The road
was built in the face Of every discour-
and for months at time
tracklaying and work had to be sus-
pended on account of the fierce des-
ert heat. The iron rails and tools
became SO hotthat they could scarcely
be handled. The men could not en-
durc tho exposure Of the scorching
sun, and in the land Of the marauding
Apaches there were other perils to be
dreaded. Water for the workmen had |

| Judge McCrary, of the United
States Circuit Court now in session al
Des Moincs, Iowa, has rendered an
important decision upon tho question
OF the right OF a State to regulate in
tcr-State commerce. The case arose
out OF suit against the Illinois Cen
trail Railroad to recover damages for
over-charges on freight shipped over
that company's road from points in
Iowa to points in Wisconsin, and orr
ginated under the taiif law of 1874.
The Court held that if the Act in
question applied to through shipments
it related to d subject which, in it's
nature, is national, and that if the
power OF the State to pass such an
act is conceded, it would necessarily
the power to discriminate
against the commerce of other States,
and for that reason would be in vio-
lation of the Constitution OF the Unit
ed States. The Court, therefore, de-
,idcd that it is not within the power
IF the State to fix the charges to be
paid within its territory on an inter-
State railroad, for thatwould in effect
give it the power to demand more |
han it's reasonable share for the en-
ire distance.

brainy, versatile men, crude oftimes,
but vigorous and alert, who are
here to do the main bulk of legis-
lation, and at the fine parties one
meets only two or three of all their
number, and q little knot Of Sena-
tors-not the interesting, either, of
the senatorial.body except from the
fortunes which are theirs by In
heritance, marriage or successful
business venture. At the card re-
ceptions by the Secretary Of State
and family this is nearly as appa-
rent as in the most exclusive pri-l
yate homes Of the city. It is a.
source of great disapp pointment to
many ladies' who come here, think
ing their husbands seat in Con.

Senator Salisbury, though one Of
the safest and best men in the
Senate, and bearing one of the
most iflustrious names, is not much
of an orator, and those who know
that fact will appreciate the follow

flock Of Delaware beanties he re.
Gently visited one of the govern
ment departments and called upon
a distinguished official. One of the
young ladies' Of the party, who is

pected that / would be able to meet

rolled such a pair of blue eyes at

reyered spine to his distinguished
heels with the electric shock, as the
red blood Of his boyhood stole up
into his cheeks. Languishly the
young giddy creature bent her gaze
npon the statesman, who warmed un-
der her look like a house cat before
a cheerful blaze, as she said: aOh,
tell me, great and good sir, who is
the most eloquent orator in the
Senate. I want your really, truly
honest opinion 2 The distinguish
ed official was equal to the occa-
sion. Stepping back, with q pro-

A Boy's RIDE ON a DEER,s
RACK.

The Pentwater Mich. Neses has
this account Of a thrilling adven-
ture which a fourteen-year- boy
named Weaver had with q deers
Upon Nh. Weayers land near The
dividing between him and Mr..
Wetmore is stream which flows
into north branch Of PentWater
river. Across the stream Dir. WeaFs
er has built a bridge which passes
a private road which runs about
eighty rods on Mr.. Weayer's land
and then reaches the State road.
At the time referred to, the boy was
standing upon the bridge, when
hearing a splashing in the stream
he discovered big deer making its
way up the stream, It's movements
indicating that it was pursued BY
hounds, On it came, and the boy,
thinking that he might secure it,
whipped. out his jack-knifc and
made ready for the attack. With
out apparently noticing tts boy, the
deer plunged ahead and attempted
-.
to jump over the bridge. but sue
ceeded only in getting its fore
feet there. The boy, thinking that
his opportunity bad arrived and he
could crush it down with his weight
and cut its Throat, jumped upon i.
The deer, now thoroughly fright
ened, gave spring and reached the
top Of the bridge, causing the boy
to lose his knife, but astride its
back and grasping its antlers, be
resolved to hang to it. Then coul-
menced a ride equaled only BY the
wild ride of Mazeppa. On, on, tore
the frightened deer through britr
bushes, over logs and up the hill
with theboys sastride with hair flying,
and yelling for help at the top Of
his voice. Finallv the state road
was reached, when the deer turned
and returned part way down the
private road mentioned, when chang.
ing its course it started to cross an
old logging fallow. Over logs and
fallen trees it went, growing weaker
and weaker with every jump; until
reaching one higher than the rest il
stumbled and fell throwing the

WHAT A DEER SEES AND
HEARS.

/ l-7 g.
When a deer is much hunted his
ears become exceedingly acute.
Mr.. Van Dyke has seen one spring
from his bed and run away at a
racehorse speed before he was With
in two hundred yards of the ami
NAL, altough he had not touched a
single bush or twig in approaching
the game, and altough he was posi-
tive that man could not at twenty
yards distance have heard the soft
tread Of the moccasins on the light
snow. Deer, toe, are able to meas
ure with correctness the distance
and character Of sounds. They viii
often lie all day within hearing of
the normal sounds of a settlers S
cabin; the sound of the woodman's
axe and the shouts of the teamster.
AS a rule, too, the crash of a squir-
rePs jump, the roar of thunder, the
shopping Of trees with frost, their
creaking or falling in the wind,
does not alarm themsin. the least.
Yet the faintest pressing of the
leaves beneath the hunters mocca-
sin may instantly send them fly
ing. A deer can also, see q.
long way On one occasion Mr..
Van Dyke saw one watching a
brother sportsman nearly a mile
away, whose motions he could.
hardly himself make out. It is true
that for recognizing an object at
rest, the eyes of a deer are about,
as dull as those Of a dog. If un-
alarmed, he will not distinguish a
? =
MN from stump on open ground,
if the man is seated and perfectly
motionless. On the other hand, to
catch q motion, a deer's eyes are
maryeloasly quick, and the fact that
he is generally at rest while the
hunter is moving gives him an I'M
mense advantage. Even the slow
lifting Of your head over . ridge, or
the slow dragging Of your limbs
over the trunks oftrees, or the slow
advance Of your creeping bQd
