The Bloody Canyon.

A correspondent of the San Francis
co Chronicle, who has been exploring
the Sierras in the vicinity of the Yose-
mite, thus describes the Bloody Can
yon," which les about forty miles from
the valley: Toward evening we neared
the head of the Bloody Canyon, at what
is known as the Mono Pass. Never be-
fore had we gazed on such scene of
barrenness and utter desolation as that
which was now open before us. Being
SO near night the effect was doubly en-
HANGED. To the west the sun was vet
an hour high, and was tingeing here and
there the snow-covered granite with
blood-red spots, while the shadow in
tervals were of the color of blued steel,
but to the east and below us it was to
all intents and purposes night. An oc-
casional sparkle at our feet, very far be-
low, denoted the presence of a lake,
and the muffled roar and hiss also told
of waterfalls, probably cascades in the
outlets of the various lakes, which,
from description, we knew existed ii.
this canyon, but now could not see.
The canyon is the usual V-shaped
gorge of all the California canyons
But this one is a 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 an
gle of the slopes is as sharp as sixty or
seventy degrees, with many perpen-
dicular faces of 500 or 1000 feet. Now,
in this evening light, the top of the
great cliffs was of deep purple-red,
with black-purple 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 indentations. 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 a beautiful
rosy light where the sun struck the
ground beyond the shadows The gen.
eral effect was grand beyond descrip-
ton

Hundred NapoIeons Ahead.

A traveller in the South of France
was recently passing through forest
when he suddenly met dozen, as he
thought, suspicious characters. His
first thought was how to make his es-
cape; but, to his great establishment,
one of them came forward and, after
some general conversation about trees,
suddenly offered 100 Napoleons if he
would retire. The traveller said he had
no objection, and the sum was given
him, and he went on his way rejoicing.
He applied to the authorities, when he
discovered that a large sale of forest
trees took place that day to which the
local buyers had been hidden, and
these men composed n knock OUT
that Is, had conspired to prevent any
one else bidding, in order that they
might obtain the timber at cheap rate.
The traveller was supposed by them to
be well-known timber merchant, and
to have entered the forest for the pur-
pose of bidding; so he was bought off.

"Am Stepoff Johnsing in de hall dis

"Yes, sahl" replied a high-pitched
voice from one of the back corners.
"You will please step to de front"
Brother Johnsing had always Dragged

now appeared to think that the hour
had come when he was to receive a

grin, and just at that moment he would
have lent Brother Backslide Davis fifty
cents without the least security.

A Fish Candle.

"Turn out the gas" said a naturalist,
sand will show you the latest thing
in light; that is" he added, "the latest
thing in that line in British Columbia.
AS the gas went out, the speaker un-
rolled several objects that had an "an-
cient and fish-like SMELL" and, striking
a match, touched one. A moment
later clear, yellow light appeared,
issuing from what looked like the
mouth of fish, the caudal end of
which was thrust into a larg, bronze
cadlestick.

For the Newark Machine Company, of
CoJuu Inns. Ohio-

The Newark Machine Company, at Column
bus, OHIO, is the owner of several patents for
building the Victor Double Huller Clover
Machine, which is the only double cylinder
clover huller made in the world. 1T has a
wide reputation all over the land, and the
sales have run up to 500 i'm single year
After the destruction of the company works
at Newark, last summer, tho Ashland Ma
chine Company at Ashland, Ohio, sent out
notices that owing to the destruction OF the
works of the Newark Machine Company
that company would be unable TO furnish
hullers for last years trade, and stated they
would build a clover huller and seed cleaner
as coed as the Victor. The firm of Gear,
Scott x Co., OF Richmond, Ind, secured q
Victor clover huller and tore IL apart and
commenced the building of clover hullers
with seed cleaning attachments thereto,
which could scarcely be told from the Victor,
upon which they tried to secure letters
patent. The Newark Machine Company filed
interference suit before the Commissioner of
Patents at Washington, and furnished such
conclusive evidence of the attempted seizure
OF Newark Companys patents, that the
Commissioner of Patents decided the patents
of the Newark Machine valid in law and were
infringcd upon by the firm of Gear, Scott &
Co. Under this decision the agents who have
sold or the persons who have purchased and
used a Clover huller embodying any of the
features of the Victor are liaLle TO the New
ark Machine Company for damages.
The Newark Machine Company will now
turn their attention to the case OF the Ash
land Machine Company for similar infringe

Rattlesnake Oil.

/ have heard, within very modern
DAYS, of rattlesnake's oil prescribed as
O febrifuge, and for divers other all
ments, while its value in rheumatism is
regarded by few persons with doubt.
The demand for it is shown by the fact
that the serpents are often hunted sys-
tematically in order that quantities of
their oil may be obtained. That was
the object the men of Warren County,
N. Y, had in killing the ], 100 snakes,
of which DIR. Kay gives an account.
Every summer, to this day, citizens of
Portland, CT, go to the rattlesnake
lodges and catch the reptiles with gait
hooks, the local druggists paying them
a an ounce for the oil, which finds ready
sale. prominent physician in Wash
ington told me of case, within his
knowledge, where a man suffering from
on ulcer took rattlesnake into his
bed with the vague idea of somehow ex-
tracing the virulence of the sore. In
some rural districts of the Union, men
wear the rattles in their hats as a rem
edy for headache; and know a case in
the Watauga mountains of North Car
DINA, where man who was far gone
with consumption hung the body of a
rattlesnake to dry and smoke in his
chimney, in order that he might nibble
at il and get we'll. His faith was weak,
and he did not take the medicine, but a
sickly boy began to pull the flesh from
the skeleton, and grew fat and sturdy
before he had finished it. In the East
ern States it used to be considered a

with which more witchcraft and super
stition is mixed up than almost any
