The Bloody Canyon.

A correspondent of the San Francisco Chron-
icle, who has been exploring the Sierras in the
vicinity of the Yosemite, thus describes the
Bloody canyons which lies about forty miles
from the valley: Toward evening neared the
head of the Bloody canyon, at what is known
as the Mono pass. Never before had we
gazed on such scene of barrenness and utter
Being near night the effect was doubly en-
HANGED. To the west the sun was yet an hour
high, and was tinging here and there the snow
covered granite with blood spots, while the
shadow intervals of the color of blued steel,
but to the east and below us it was to all intents
and purposes night An occasional sparkle at
our feet, very far below, denoted the presence of
lake, and the mutfied roar and hiss also told of
waterfalls, probably cascades in the outlets of
the various lakes, which, from description, we
knew existed in this canyon but now could not
see.
The canyon is the usual v-shaped gorge of all
the California canyons. But this one is giant
among pygmies. The northern slope is at least
5000 feet deep, and the southern one fully 1000
feet in depth And we find from sketches made
at the time that the angle of thu slopes is as
sharp as sixty or seventy degrees, with many
perpendicular faces of 800 or 1000 feet. Now,
in this evening light, the top of the great cliffs
was of a deep purple with backpurple
shadows the face to the north was series of
great ridges, running vertically in parallel lines
to the slant of the rock, and each ridge notched
and broken up into series of saw-like indenta-
tions. The shadows of the Sierra were projected
below far out on to the broken plain, but ceased
at the foot of volcanic looking mountain on
the edge of Mono lake. The lake and the
distance were in beautiful rosy light where the
sun struck the ground beyond the shadows.
The general effect was grand beyond description.

Germanic Types.

Some time ago Prof Virchow brought to-
gether the results of any inquiry into the rela-
mixed types among the school children of the
German empire. Since then the inquiry has
been extended to Belgium, Austria and Switzer
land, and embraces nearly 10000 900 children
in its scope. In a lecture at the Berlin Academy
of Science, Prof. Virchow shows that more
than so per cent of the school children of
central Europe belong to the mixed type. The
distribution of the purely blonde type, which
contributes something over rs per cent, and is
associated with unmixed Teutonic blood, is
rather curious. 1t is highest in Hanover where
it forms 43 per cent. of the population, but it is
very nearly as high in the extreme east Prussian
and Pomeranian districts, where history and
tradition locate pleponderating Slavic element
and points to the completeness Of the gradual in
dustrial conquest of those sections by the
Teutonic race.

IL
The political cauldrcn is beginning to stir. and
some strange and startling developments may DO
looked for. / find that Roscoe Conkling is very
much talked about here in Gotham. There are
some men, whose political opinions are entitled
to respect who say that Dir. Conkling is likely
to take the seat Of Warner Miller in the United
States Senate as soon as that gentleman's term
has expired. Such a result would make him the
ally and co-worker of his old enemy, Evarts, an
arrangement which, many wiser men say, he
would not consent to for all the senatorial hon
ors in the gift of the American people. / am In
formed, however, by a gentleman who for several
years has enjoyed eminence in politics and the
personal friendship of Mr.. Conkling, that re-
Cancellation has been effected between the man
of long sentences and the ex-senator.
am not permitted to give the name Of
my informant but / quote his language
verbatim: ''It was during Mr.. Eyarts's term as
the Secretary of State that he said to me one
day at the White House: Mr.. Conkling is a
queer man. Whenever he is to speak Ia the
Senate L always leave my work in order to go
and hear him. L admire the man very much
and have tried to cultivate his friendship but
without success, for he always passes me with
out even nod, no matter where meet him..
Some months ago | met Mr.. Conkling at one
of the clubs in New York and told him precisely
Wuav Tie secretary nau Salu 10 me. we were
sitting at table alone when I related the Incl
dent. He did not speak for moment or
two after had finished Suddenly he
rose, in naughty manner and said. L
must CO. and hurriedly put On his overcoat
and bid me good night A few days after
ward | received a letter from him, in which
he said that he was glad to have learned what
Mr.. Evarts had told NE, and added that it might
lead to important results in the future Who
knows but that the mediation of my informant
may be already working very important results
in American politics. 1t is possible, however,
that Mr. Warner Miller may have something to
say on the question of the succession. The ia
nous ''Wood-pulp man" has not the splendid
abilities of Roscoe Conkling, but he has shrewd
common sense and no end Of ambition. He has
also, what Mr.. Conklng lacks. the faculty of
making friends and holding them. The superb
egotism and arrogance of Mr.. Conkling alienated
from his friendship at early date most men
whose friendship was worth having, and kept in
his train manly the baser class of flatterers
who were ready to turn on and betray him when
his sun was clouded. Warner Miller will never
fall into the same mistake

Intemperance in Switzerland.
London Standard.

London standard.
1t is lamentable to think that the virtues of
the hardy mountaineers of Switzerland should
be Slapped by drink; that the free inhabitants
of republic should rival the vices of the poor
wretches existing under effete monarches. 1t
seems however, that this IS the case; and the
evil has reached such point that the Federal
Council is taking into grave consideration what
is to be done to check the degradation of
the race. In the matter of brandy alone,
the population, which, all told - includ-
ing women and children = number but
two millions and a half, consume 81 600, 900 litres
per annum-a litre being pretty we'll equivalent
to an ordinary wine bottle This is an average
of thirty bottles of brandy for each adult male.
When it is considered that in Switzerland wine
is both plentiful and strong there is no reason
for surprise at the alarm of the Federal Council
at the consumption of brandy, and that drunk
enness is declared to be so general that every
year the number of men fit for military service
decreases The term frugal. which has for CEN
turtles been applied to the Swiss, is now clearly
a misnomer, or if still frugal in other matters,
the Swiss Of to-day has altogether ceased to
deny himself in the matter Of Intoxicating
LIQUORS

Indian Homemaking.

One of the new experiments at Hampton this
year is taking several young married couples
from different Indian tribes, and teaching them
how to make a home 1t has been very success
full, and the dawning gentleness of the men to
their wives and children. the new tenderness
and pride of the women their eagerness to learn
how to sew and their pleasure in cleanliness,
are encouraging in every way. 1t is funny,
and yet touching, to see the men with their
children, their awkwardness in handling them,
and yet their determination to carry the heavy
youngsters and share the care of them with
their squaws. And these are not the Creeks
and Cherokees, but the warlike Sioux and
OmahaS.

February these young ones got into the pond
and were quite unable to climb up its perpendicu

reach them from the side of the pond. She then
plunged into the water, and, after playing with
one of them for short tins 'he put her head
close to its ear, as if to mai t understand her

Fruits and Flowers.

Roses with tint of yellow golden flush,
And grapes of shining amethystine glow.
Together grouped by hands white snow
So soft of touch the bloom they do not brush
From off the richly ripened fruit. crush
The satin leaves of flowers which shining show
AS perfect as in the gardens where they grow
And meath the kiss of summer sunshine blush.
From golden flowers a rarer fragrance flows
On zephyrs of her breath than ever spilled
By any bloom that in garden grows
And twixt her lips, that sweetness sun distille
In fruit whose heart prisoned shining shows
Finds filter hive than bees have ever filed.

A woman at New Rochelle who found herself
in peculiar situation Tuesday evening dis
played great presence of mind, and thereby
saved her life. She was walking on the tracks
of the New Haven railway, and saw train APP
preaching when she stepped on the other track.
She had hardly done so before she heard Sec

not time enough to clear the track by crossing
it, she gathered her skirts tightly about her and
lay down between the two tracks, and in this
manner the two trains going in opposite direc-
tons passed her, and she then arose, sh ook out
her skirts and proceeded on her way as though
nothing unusual had happened.
