WHICH LOVED BEST ?

II love you, mother" said little John:
Then forgetting his work, his cap went on,
And he was off to the garden swing,
And left her the water and wood to bring.
II love you, mother" said rosy Nell;
Il love you better than tongue can tell"
Then she teased and pouted full half the day.
TIL her mother rejoiced when she went to play.
~ love you, mother" said little Fan;
To-day I'll help you all l can;
How glad am there's no school to-day"
So she rocked the babe till asleep it lay.
Then stepping softly, she fetched the broom,
And swept the floor and tidied the room:
Busy and happy all day was she,
Helpful and busy as child could be.
~ love you, MOTHER" again they said,
Three little children going to bed.
How do you think that mother guessed
Which of them really loved her best?
If some enterprising fellow would now corner
the market on DR.. Bulls Cough Syrup he would
make fortune. Beware of frauds

NO MORE CONTEMPLATING.
Great Invention by Superintendent Snow
den, of the Philadelphia Mint.

PHILADELPHIA June 13-For two months
past Col. A. Loudon Snowden, superintendent
of the mint has been working upon an invention
to render counterfeiting the United States coin
age practically impossible. Some weeks ago he
made wooden model of his own with twice
bisected collar, which was intended to form
raised letters upon the peripheries of all United
States coins. After this had been tested he had
several steel collars made upon the same pattern
and adjusted to the enormous toggled silver
coinage press of the mint. For days and
weeks Colonel Snowden persevered in expert
ments that were often most disheartening for
he found it nearly impossible task to adjust
the opening and shutting of the bisected collar
to the rapid motion of the dies. But, at 1l:30
O'Clock this morning. a final experiment test was
made, and it was perfect success. Heaps of
round silver pieces as smooth as ice and as glls-
tening as dew drops, were placed in tall hollow
tube at the outer edge of the press These
pieces were embryo SILVER dollars With mathe
NAUTICAL exactness, all the moving machinery of
the dies was adjusted so that it would work
simultaneously with the opening and shutting
of the collar. After the hy-wheel of
the travelling metal claws were adjusted to grasp
the first round silver piece and then the ma
chine was put at full speed The silver dollars
were stamped and lettered by the new collar,
and began to pour into the tray beneath like
metallic hail. The shower of precious metal was
allowed to continue without interruption for two
minutes, when the coming press was stopped and
the dollars were examined. The test confirmed
all expectations Each one Of the experimenting
party held up a coin, still hot from the
press the raised letters appeared upon the edge,
distinct, cleaning, and without flaw what
ever. Between the legend upon the edge of
the new coin, ''E Pluribus Unum.' silver six
pointed stars appeared, as deicatsly formed as if
craven under microscope. The die work upon
both sides of the new dollars was clear aud with
out imperfection of any kind.
The new coin cannot be initiated by counter
feiters, because it cannot be made in a mold, or
by any process except the steel collar, hand en-
lifted out of a mold without injury, because the
lines upon their edges are straight up and down.
The new ones have letters and stars on their
edges, and cannot be taken out except by injur
ing them and mut!ating tho molds

A Whole Family Poisoned.

EVANSTON, Ill.,, June 13.-For two or three
days past Michael Freeres, of Rose HILL his wife
and two children have been i'll with symptoms
OF vomiting and spasms which were enough to
arouse suspicion of poisoning. A sister of Mrs.
Freeres May Klemon, who has been accustomed
to do the kitchen work for the family, was sus-
pected and yesterday an investigation was
made. Dr. Isaac Poole, of this village, visited
the family residence and was shown soup which
had been served Thursday. He found q
whitsh sediment in the bottom of the
bowl, and brought some Of it to the laboratory
of the university in this village. Professor Cor
bet made a test and the result leaves no shadow
of doubt that there was large quantity of ar
senic in the soup. The police, Immediately after
the test, went to Rose Hill and arrested tho
woman. Less than year ago. it is said, tho
father, brother and young sister Of the prisoner
were attacked with like symptoms, and all died
within short time. The prevailing opinion in
that the woman is insane, though the officers
say she conversed with them last night in most
rational manner

Passengers Sent Flying at Sight Of a Seven
Foot 0phidian.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., June 13--A genuine SEN
senger car to-day. Commissioner of Agriculture
Butler of South Carolina, secured a seven foot
coachwhip snake which he decided to present
to the national Department of Agriculture. The
coachwhip being a non-venomus reptile Mrl
Butler carried it in bag On the train to
Washington he met several friends, and consent
ed to show them his prize
Going to his seat he reached down and drew
forth the bag, around which he carefully felt
with one hand until he grasped the snakes head
There were about twenty passengers watching
the proceedings One negro more curious than
his fellow travellers, moved up to get a better
view just as Mr.. Butler, having grasped the
snakes head, jerked the bag away from it, and
seven feet Of snake began coiling and squirming
about the car. The snake coiled its body in all
manner of forms, and whipped its tail around in
the fashion peculiar to its variety.
Yells followed, and, jumping from their seats
the thoroughly frightened passengers went
tumbling down the aisle and out on to the plat
form. The curious negro lodged, but not in
time to escape cut from the snakes TAIL and
with q muttered prayer he bolted out of the car
window feet foremost catching the window
facing as he jumped He held on until brake
man drew him back into the car.
The snake meanwhile had coiled in numerous
folds around the arm rest and legs Of car seat
and MIR. Butler, unable to release his hold upon
its head, found it impossible to unwind the
creature without help. The passengers wanted
TO kill it, but Buffers friends came to his aid,
and after time the snake was unwound and
safely placed in the bag From the time Of this
incident until the train reached Charlotte,
Butler, his friends and the snake had the second
class car all to themselves.

A. j. Cassatt and the west shore.

NEW YORK, June 13 "A Philadelphia special
to the Evening Post says: 1.-THE future action
of A. }. Cassatt, late vice president of the Penn
sylvania railroad, and at present a director OF
that company, is subject of considerable gossip
at Philadelphia. For some time he has had the
offer of the West Shore receivership under con-
sideration, and it is stated on the authority OF
one of his most intimate friends that he has
about decided to accept it, Should he do so,
there is no doubt that he will institute vigorous
measures to end the existing difficulties between
that pad and the New York Cen
trail, and thus bring to close
the present disastrous rate-war. It lis
currently reported and generally believed that
the ultimate result of his acceptance will be the
control of the West Shore by the Pennsylvania.
Rumors were afloat this morning that Mr.. Cassats
had been mentioned as the successor to Presi-
dent Rutter, of the New York Central Hfs
friends. however, say that even If he wef1
offered the place, which is not likely, in view Of
his Pennsylvania affiliations, he would decline
it. with the knowledge that. as president Of
that corporation. he would be expected to act
wholly under the direction of Mr. Vanderbilt
That he will become the receiver Of the West
Shore is much more probable.

The Oargo Muchacho Mines.

The Los Angeles Express of last Mon.
 day, 17th instant, had the following
 interesting news item of the Cargo Mu-
 chacho Mines, located about IS miles
 from this place, on the California side of the Colorado river. The man Peterson referred to in the item, is John Peterson who recently was kicked in the face by a vicious horse at the Ogilby mines. and who is now in Los Angeles under physi- clar's care doctorlng one of his eyes injured by the blow. MT. Jackson, his partner, was in town this week and brought with him soms very fine speci- mems of gold bearing quartz which he gave Louis Esselburn, proprietor of tte New Capitol Saloon, where the specimens may now be seen. The Express ia refer ring to these mines, said: "The mining interests of Southern California are grow ing with such rapidity as too soon equal the horticultural and agricultural inter ests. Prominent among the late disco- veries are the mines in the Cargo MIcha- cho mountains in the Colorado desert about twenty miles west of cid Fort Yuma, The discoverer was P. Waters, of this city, who was then engaged as a section hand on the s. P. R. R. at Ogilby station. He employed hIs spare time during the cool weather in prospecting the Cargo Muchacho mountains to the north of the railroad and on January 6, 1884, he located a group of eight claims. ais discoveries led Messrs. Rabbit, Ken- nard and Peterson to make similar loca- tions, fifteen in al:, in the same district The distance is four mics north of Ogilby, which latter place Is ten miles from the Colorado river, m making the nearest water to the mines fourteen UIiles of.
 Dr. A. Sternburn, of San Francisco, has had the Walters, group bonded for the past three months, and last week his bond was extended ten days. He return ed to San Francisco today with party of experts and capitalists. who have been viewing the mines, the result Of which they did not make known.
 MT. Walters says the ore bodies are very large, and altogether gold.bearing The veins run from six inches in width to sixty feet. Assays run from $S per ounce to as high as slS5, 900 per ton, but for milling purposes will run right slong at S2O per ton.
 The heat in the Cargo Muchacho moun- talns is very intense at present. the mer- cury standing ut 12S deg. F. duiing the day, and no shade. MT. Walters is Of the opinion that it will require considerable property 10 work his mines. Successful I attempts have been made with tho ar- rastra. One carload of the ore he shipped to San Francisco averaged $l14 per sack. A boom may be expected in this district on the return of cool weather.
