A Han in search Of Mining Infer
nation.
| Postmaster White received thu
following, a few days ago:
FAIRFIELD, GREEN Co., Ono,
June 10th, 1885. !
POSTMASTER, Carson City, New
Dear Sir: I have been looking fol
some time for book that would
give me some information in re-
gard to mining in Nevada, but can
find none. l thought I might get
some points from some of your pa
pers, published in Nevada. Will
you have the kindness to send me
copy of one, or give me the name
of one that publishes such news.
Yours respectfully,
GEORGE W. GREENE.
Any paper can give Mr.. Greene
hints on mining. If you want to
regularly engage in the business of
practical mining, secure good
mine (Which you can easily do, by
purchasing a controlling interest in
the stock) then send out your cap
pers, work the newspapers, and by
seesawing the stock up and down,
and levying assessments every 60
DAYS, you can make money hand
over fist. Buy 'em when they're
low and sell EN- when they're high,
and you can make cleanup pretty
often. If you strike ore, hide it
for about twelve years, assess regu-
larly, and if the public don't let go
food the mine with water, and if
that don't shake 'em out get Maui
rice Hoehich, Archie Borland, John
Kelly and Lucky Baldwin toinspect
it and say it is big thing, and you
can take it in at the Big Board next
day for a song. These are about all
the hints necessary to success in
the business out here.

unsatisfactory to reader to peruse
such a meagre account of . great

he wore is passed over in silence.

He might have borrowed a plug of
tobacco of some of the passengers
or, perhaps, recognized some old
friend among the emigrants, and
staked him for a meal, but on these

The Electric Eel.

1t varies in length from three to six
feet, and, to give room for its powerful
electrical '.installment," the greater
portion of its body is devoted to the
batteries, only some two or three inches
of the space behind its head being re-
served for the viscera essential to an
humber phase of its existence. The
batteries, which have been compared
to galvanic troughs, consist of a num-
ber of piles, placed horizontally from
head to tail, and are supplied by an
immense number of nerves, derived
from the inferior or motor roots of the
spinal nerves. The result is a capa-
bility of generating shock so power
full that when the fish is in full work.
ing order it can stun or even cause the
death of the largest animal. In the
Guianas and Brazil the swamps and
ponds which it frequents are Stunned
BY the Indians. and in some cases, ow-
ing to the number of horses which have
been killed in fording pools infested by
these floating batteries, the lines of
highways have been changed. Lon

Soapstoae for Walls.

The latest invention for covering
walls and ceilings is called "soapstone
fnish," and is mainly composed of
pulverized steatite. 1t takes high
polish, is pearl-gray in tint, presents
the best possible surface for painting,
either in oil or in water-color, and will
neither crack nor chip. 1t is claimed
to be a non-conductor and non-absorb-
ent, and can be washed without injury.
Nails can be driven into it without
damage. When subjected to heat, and
moisture and chemical fumes, it is said
to give no smell; it also does not turn
yellow with age. 1t is recommended
for hospitals, factories, cellars, mark
cts, closets, pantries and kitchens, and
is pleasanter to the eye than ordinary
whitewash or cheap paper.-We Mule

Der he opened my eyes when he charg-
ed big fee for what then seemed little
work. He was engaged in an import
ant suit for one of the big New York
insurance companies, and had 10 pre-
pare his brief that night.
He forgot 1t till about8 o'clock that
evening, when he came around and
went to work with hurry, as the brief
had to be finished before morning. At
his direction got down alarge number
Of law books and handed them to him,
as he wished to consult authorities. He
had hardly well begun when the door
opened, and in walked the president of
the company for whom he was prepar-
ing the suit.
i want to ask your advice about
the wording Of our policy he said.
THE general refused, saying he had
no time.
1t will only take you few min.
utes,' urged his client. and it is all inn
portant that the matter receive imme-
date attention
"As he was not to be put of, the gen.
eral asked him TO state his point, but
went on with his work. He hardly
paused to hear the policy read. and
without looking up from a book. told
him to change about four words, as
well as can remember. His client
thanked him and went out.
"a few days later Gen. Harlan told
me to enter charge on his books
against the insurance company of $5,-
600 for advice, naming the day when
the incident l have related occurred. 1
could scarcely believe my ears, and
pretended to misunderstood the
amount. He repeated it, however, and
l entered the charge almost dumb
founded. Six months later he directed
me to send the insurance company tho
bill for his services, including the $5,-
900 item for advice. I did so, and in q
few days there came a check for the
whole amount, accompanied by most
complimentary letter from the presi-
dent, stating that the change he had
suggested had been of the greatest val
ue to them in their policies.

suited he was preparing brief in a
case of Importance. Seemingly his at
tention was not distracted from that
work, and 1 think had right to be
astonished. ."-Louisville Coatrier-Jour-

an effort his uncertain balance, be left

The girl looked after him wistfully,
then, as his form was lost to her view
in the crowded room, with deep de-
spairing sigh she turned and left the
place. Outside the electric lights
streamed full upon her slender figure
as she hesitated o moment before de-
sceuding the step. The nightwas cold
and stormy. An icy sleet was falling
driven in every direction by the capri
cious and fitful wind gusts, and the few
pedestrians who were abroad hurried
on their way anxious TO gain shelter.

now she turned swiftly and retraced
her steps. She paused not q moment
on the threshold; evidently she feared
her own resolution. The doors YIELD
ed instantly to her touch, and once
more she looked over the scene whose
light and warmth and comfort were as
little to her as the wind and rain out
side. Her searching glance soon
found out her father; for the moment
he was standing alone, and his daugh-
ter felt that she had one more chance.
Rapidly she gained his side.
"Father, dear father" she began,
speaking low but passionately, 81 can
not leave you here. cannot face
mamma without you; she has waited
so many nights for your Homecoming,
and the hours are SO weary without
you. Oh, father" the child went on,
gathering up all her energies as she
saw that her listener was half needing
her words, "break away from this
wretched place, come back to your
home and mamma and me; we love
you so dearly we cannot live without
you, and oh! it is all so different now
from what it used to be-. The child
ish voice was breaking. ''Such little
time ago we were all so happy" Here
a sob almost choked her. She slipped
her clinging fingers into the unresent-
ing hand of the man who. staggered at
her side. ''Come back to us, father;
come home with me now," and the
tears, no longer within her power to
restrain, coursed down her pale cheeks
as she lifted her face to him, holding
his gaze with her wistful, pleading
eyes.
The mans features worked convul-
sively; he looked about him once half
desperately; then some better feeling
swept over him, and, Strengthening
himself up, he said brokenly. II will

The Toothpick-


I wish TO enter Q protest against the
toothpick. Not the pick In its proper.
useful sphere, 1t has done good service
In its day, and its constant, regular ap-
plication has doubtless helped preserve
many . set Of teeth; but it Is TO the
toothpick ct the table, in the parlor,
on the street, on the cars, at the thea
tire, in church, that would enter TO-
600 words Of protest il they only sue
ceeded in banishing this article to the
seclusion to which it belongs. Who
has not been sickened at the sight of
wide-opened mouth, its rows of lily
formed, tobacco-stained teeth, the own
er of which would insist upon exhibit
ing to the public, together with his
dexterity in fishing out and exposing
secreted particles of food. And yet
repulsive as this habit is, we see 1t in
dulged in, not merely by Doors and per-
sons making no claim to gentility, but
by gentlemen, and-yes. ladies belong
ing to our highest classes of society.
On many tables of elegance and luxury
has the writer seen the little dish OF
toothpicks standing, which at the close
Of the meal would be passed around
the table, whereupon each member Of
the party being provided with his
weapon would fall to excavating and
splitting with all the vigor and enthus-
iasm imaginable. What a sight! If
anyone wishes to see it in its true vul-
garity, let him for once be an unoc-
cupied spectator.
At the hotels no one is permitted to
leave the dining-room until the omni-
present toothpick is thrust upon him;
at hotels of the highest, most luxurious
class, how often do we see fine-looking
gentlemen, elegant-appearing ladies,
issuing from the dining-room, promen-
aiding in the corridors, conversing in
the parlors, picking. yes, actually pick
ing their teeth, as if no other time or
place could be so suitable. OF the
multitude of other places where the
toothpick is used l will say nothing.
What wish to denounce in stronger
words than have power to utter is
its use in public by ladies and gentle
men who lay claim to good society and
cultivated manners, and whe ought to
know better. Why not comb, ones
hair. brush ones teeth, clean ones
nails, in short, perform any other lit
tie personal duties in public, if tooth
picking is allowable? To those who
claim the practice to be necessary
one, I would refer the ancient Romans,
who frequently topped off a banquet
with good old emetie, furnished them
by their host, for the purpose of reliev-
ing them of the superfluous quantity of
food they carried upon their stomachs.
A later civilization has outgrown the
emetic; may a still later outgrow the
toothpick. When used let them be
confined to the privacy of ones own
room, or to any place apart from those
where they are so manifestly out OF
place. The Inter Ocean.
