ADEAD INNING TOWN.

There is in V .ctoria town of ruined
hout tes-Matlook. It's life began In 1884
with rush Of diggers. The last inhabi
itant left n 1879. In the fifteen years
Natlock had found fortune and seen
IL turnet to dross. The diggers lost
their wit, as at Ballarat, lit their pipes
with bank notes and played at skittles
with bottles of wine. ION one occasion, u
says Mr.Sutherland, 1.-TWO lucky diRgers
laid wager about which of them should
treat the assembly to the largest Shout!
The first ordered several dozens OF the
most expensive wines, far more than
the company could be ex pected to drink
with the utmost diligence.
"But the other completely eclipsed
this effort by ordering out The land
lords whole stock of champagne,
amounting to about two hundred bot.
ties. 1t was bought and disposed of in
every absurd way that reckless inge'
nuity could invent. This sort OF con-
duct ruined many of the diggers.
Deeson, the poor man who went out
one day with his children's cries OF
bread ringing in his ears, and returned
with the nugget {" Welcome Strange"
that sold for ten thousand pounds, was
a man of good personal habits, but he
soon fell into poverty. He DID not
know when he had enough. He In
vest ed his fortune in machinery and
lost 1T all. He toiled on through life
in poverty a hundred yards fiom the
spot where q single stroke of his pick
turned up fortune.

The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Com
pany have succeeded in obtaining ar
entrance into Philadelphia, and at the
special meeting on Friday the Board O!
Po.t Wardens granted license to the
Schuy' 'lkill River East Side Railroad
Company to build four piers in the
river Schu ,vkill, about 1900 feet below
Gray's Ferry bridge. Thirteen mem
bers were present, and George A Cotton
presided. In opening the meeting Mr..
Tucker, Chairman of the committee
which had the matter in charge, said
that since the receipt of the Coast
Survey report 1t had been found that
the proposed location of the bridge
was the best any where within 1000 feet
OF the site.
The question wag raised that a pre.
vious license, granted by the 1ard in
April, 1884, was in the hands of the
Master Warden, and If the present one
we're granted the railroad would have
the right to build two bridges. The
license was granted subject to the ter.
mination Of an equity suit by the city
against the Schuylkill East Side Rail
road Company, which suit was dropped,
and nothing was ever done with the
license.
uDVou W uTbJ ulB-
pose OF this license before gr anting a
new one.
There was some discussion and delay,
but a motion directing the Master War
den to deliver to the officers of the
Board the former license in his poses
sion was finally adopted.
The Board then unanimously adopted
the committees report, which stated:
Your special committee, to whom
was referred the application OF Ii. L
Douglas Chief Engineer, for license
| for piers for bridge to be built by the
ISchuylkill River East Side Railroad
Company across the Schuylkill river at
a point about 1900 feet below Gray's
Ferry bridge, beg leave to report
that they have visited the site
of the proposed piers, have held
several meetings to hear objections to
the same and arguments in its favor,
and have caused two weeks public no
tice to be given by advertisement of its
consideration by the Board. Your com
mittee having given due consideration
to the subject, approve the application
and recommend the adoption of the
following resolution
Resolved, That license be granted
and issued to the Schuylkill East Side
Railroad Company to build four piers
in the Sshuylkll rivar in accoriancs
with the application dated June sign
ed II. T. Douglas, Chief Engineer, and
the plan filed there with, dated January
30, 1874, AMI June 1, 1885, signed

MEAT EATING NOT NECESSARY

1t Is q vulgar error to regar1 meat In
any form as necessary to life; If for any
it is necessary, IL Is for the hard.work-
ing outdoor laDorers, and for these a
certain proportion is no doubt desirable.
To many 1t has become partially desir-
able only by the force of habit, and be
cause their d digestive organs have thus
been trained to deal with it, and at first
resent change But this being gradu.
ally made, adaptation takes place, and
the individual who has consumed two
or three meat meals daily with some
little discomfort, chiefly from being Of
ten indisposed to m AXE active exertioDs,
becomes, after sufficient time has
elapsed, stronger, lighter and happier,
as we'll as better tempered and mani
festly healthier, on more delicate
dietary. Alterations in the dietary,
especially of elderly persons. should be
made gradually and with caution.
This condition fulfilled, considera
BILE change may be effected with salts
factory results VIXEN circumstances
render 1t necessary. A brief allusion
must be made to the we'll known and
obvious fact that the surrounding
temperature influences the demand for
food, which therefore should be de-
tornlneu as ToBhlub quautIty VI hiuu
according to the climate inhabited, or
the season Of the year as it affects each
climate. In hot weather the dietary
should be lighter In the understood
sense of the term, than In the cold
weather. Living on cereals, vegeta.
hles and fruit, with some proportion Of
fish, and abstaining from slcholie drinks,
the same person would probably enjoy
the high temperature, and be free from
the thirst which is the natural result of
consu ming needlessly substantial and
heating food.

A BRAVE LADY !
Surgical Operation without
Taking Chl0rOfOrm.
From the Courier.


Mrs. Schoomaker, OF Greeks Locks,
Ulster Co., N. Y, had the misfortune to
entirely loose the sight of one Of her
eyes, through an accident. and endured
painful inflammatory action therein for
two long years the othef eye becoming
sympathetically affected, her general
health seriously suffering indeed, she
was mere wreck, a walk ing skeleton.
In this terrible strait, she consulted DR..
David Kennedy, of Rondout, New
York, who told her at once that the in
jured eye must be removed. She
quietly but firmly said : "All right,
Doctor. but don't give me chloroform.
Let my husband sit by my side during
the operation, and l will neither cry
out or stir I" The work was done and
the poor woman kept her word. Talk
Of soldiery courage This showed
greater pluck than it takes to face a
hundred guns To restore her health
and give tone and strength to the sys.
ten, DIR. Kennedy then gave the
" Favorite Remedy" which cleansed
the blood and impaired new life to
the long suffering woman. She rapid
ly gained health and strength, and is
now we'll. The Favorite Remedy" is
a priceless blessing to woman. No
family should be without 1t. Your

THE PITCH LAKE OE TRINIDAD.

The most markable feature of Trini-
dad Ia the Pitch Lake. 1t is about a
mile and a half in circum ference. The
pitch at tho sides of the lake is perfect
~ hard and cold; but as one walks to.
ward the middle W ith the shoes off, in
order to wade through the water, the
heat gradually increases, the pitch be-
comes softer and softer, until at last 1t
is seen boiling up in a liquid state.
The air Is then strongly impregnated
with bitumen and sulphur, and the
impression of the feet is left upon the
pitch. 1t is possible during the rainy
season to walk over most of the lake but
during hot weather a great part cannot
be approached.
/ extract the following account from
the narrative Of q gentleman who visit
ed it from San Fernando: "To get to the
lake tits necessary TO sail ten miles on the
Gulf Of Paria. The course lay along
the shores of the district of South Ma
parma, with cane cultivation coming
down nearly to the waters edge, and
the planters houses placed no as to
com mand good view OF the sea; then
past the swamp called, par excellence,
the lagoon, which fronts ths sea for
three or four miles. and extends far in
to the interior, fertile source of agues
and fevers to the estates adjoining,
especially 10 leeward.
Then came some more miles of bush,
and then our destination, the beach
and village Of La Brae (which signifies
pitch). Nothing could be more ap.
propriate than the name, for it 10 pitch
here and there and everywhere. 1t is
the shore, it is the bed Of the sea far
as you can trace it.. 1t is the street
and the surface of the ground. 1t forms
| the floors of the houses, and is under
the vegetation which fiourishos with
tropical luxuriance all around. The
road proceeds almost in straight line
from the shore for about mile to the
borders Of the lake, which is wholly
covered with pjtcn, presenting the ap:
pearance of motion, though quite hard
when he visited it'll.
1t appeared as II wave after wave waf
coming on, each one having sufficient
consistency to preserve its crest, AS II
the ripples on a level sea shore had been
suddenly arrested and solidi6ed. The
pitch is quite level with the edge of the
basin. 1t was our inten tion to proceed
toward the middle Of the lake, and
after we had spent some time on the
border surveying the singular scene we
began to put our intention into effect
The sides of the hummocks were slip
perry. and very steep but we pursued
| our way till we arrived near the middle
wherewas a larger flow of pitch tfan
any we had crossed. Some guava bushes
afforded shelter from the sun rays, and
there we halted.
The stiffness was very marked. No
a sign of animal life hat what came
from our own party, while the black,
brow n4sh hue of the surface of the pitch
added TO the monotony of all around.--
YET even here we're the guava bushes
growing, without any visible soil to
nourish them, although probably a
cropping up of soil in the lake gave
them place to strike root In. The waite
in the lake is 80 slightly tinRed with
the taste OF pitch as to be drinkable, J, and
there are many places where those in
clined to bathing can indulge theiI
wish"
