Looking for n Cattle-Growing Land.

The ranches of the west are claimed
and occupied to such an extent that
there are no longer opportunities for the
introduction of large herds. One who
wishes now to engage in the business
must purchase range and the herd oc.
cupying it. This state Of affairs has
caused capitalists to look elsewhere for a
cattle-growing country. Longing eyes
are turned toward the islands in the Pa
cific, along the coast of Alaska, which
Lieut.. Schwatka pronounces the best cat
tie country in the world. Others are
studying the pampas countries of South
America, and still others are attracted
to old Mexico. Some well-known cat
tlemen of Texas have engaged in the
business in Paraguay, and quite mum.

Favorite Dance of the Mexicans.

The jarabe, more Familiarity known as
the fandango, is the favorite dance of the
native Mexicans. A man or woman
stand opposite to each other-or if the
women are scarce the men pair of-and
dance, or rather stamp, kind of smoth.

nor reel. The dancers do not need much
space to execute it successfully, and
hence the large, fat-bottomed freight
boats, which ply between the city and
Chalco, afford ample accommodations
for their simple revels. The music on
these occasions is usually harp and a
bandolon, the latter being an instrument
much like the guitar, with twelve metal
strings. and the dancers generally chime
in their voices, making wild chorus,

Spread of the Wires In China.

The telegraph now extends TO Langson
in Tonquin, on the Chinese border. On
the Chinese side the telegraph was car.
ried during the recent military operations
in Tonduin from Canton to Lungchow,
about thirty miles from Langson. Hence,
with the exception Of short gap OF
thirty miles, the telegraph extends in an
unbroken line from Saigon in the south
of the Indo-Chinese peninsula to Pekin,
where five years ago there was no tele.
graph whatever. The rapidity with
which, since 1881, it has spread all over
China, and has come in general use, il
one Of the wonders of modern days.

A Queer Tree Down In Georgia.

There's a peculiar freak of nature on
the road leading from this place to Balls
ferry. 1t consists of two large pine
trees, whose bases stand four feet apart
and which unite about forty feet in the
air, TO be one and the same trunk. A
few feet above, where the two trees join
can be traced the two separate bodies
merging more and more into one another
until all lines of demarkation is lost, and
there is but one trunk from there up
ward, perfectly round and symmetrical
1t is reasonable to conceive how two
trees could, from close contact, grow
into each other. But in what manne
did one tree lose its identity as to a top

M wild world hastens on its way;
The gray-haired century nears its close;

The summer blush forsakes the rose,
But, darling, while your voice hear,
And while your dark-brown eyes see,
AAd months and sunless, seasons drear,
Are all the same, all glad, to me.
Despair can never reach me while your soft

While your eyes love and teach mo. never

They say that love forsakes the old
That passion pales and fades away.
That even loves bright locks Of gold
Must lose their charm and change TO gray,
But, darling, while your heart is mine,
And while feel that you are true,
For me the skies will ever shine
With Summer light and tenderest blue.

Advice to the Art Amateur.

If you go following Tom or Nelly's
ideas Of painting, or take in ideas of color
from your maiden aunt, or copy sporting
subjects from your bachelor uncle,
either from love of their personality OF
respect for their intelligence, you are
wasting time entirely and preparing for
yourself difficulties in the future similar
to those you might feel in making free
hand drawing after you have been ac-
customed to use tracing paper. For the
first beginning of art, whether for anna
teur or professional, is freedom. You
must run alone, even if you stagger
and fall in the attempt, from
your first moment. But having got
rid Of their advice, let us go a step fur
ther and get rid of their appreciation
Perhaps this is even more fatal than
their blame. For in the first place they
seldom care, save for you personally
and in the second place they seldom
know; and in the third place, IL they both
know and care, they will probably b.
silent.-Contemporary Review.

MAKING A HEADFoRsMosT LEAP.
An Ingenious Arrangement I'm Use ON the
stage-Jumping Into the Water.

An Ingenious Arrangement I'm Use ON the
stage-Jumping Into the Water.
In play now running in the east an
actor LEAPS headlong from the walls of a
prison into apparent water. He actually
falls twenty-three feet clear in the sight
of the audience. The device by which
he escapes injury is ingenious. A an
vas cone is fixed under the stage, with
its large end even with the stage, which
is arranged to represent water. This end
is covered with rubber cloth, also painted
to represent water. The rubber cloth is
cut acr Jss in its center, the cuts reach
ing half way from the center TO the
edge. The ring or edge of this circle is
hung on thick rubber springs. As the
cone narrows to its apex three other
rings are disposed at proper intervals,
covered with netting that easily breaks,
affording only slight resistance.
Now, when the lIeadforemost leap is
made, the leaper covers first twenty
three feet of clear space unresisted. He
then strikes the certer of the diaphragm,
and the rubber cloth, partially giving
way, still offers some resistance, and,
clinging around his shoulders, retards
his progress without harming him at all.
The next and tie next, and still the next,
or last, ring in turn offer enough resist
ance to check the fall until the apex of
the cone, by its narrowing, holds the
diver in a close embrace about the Shout
ders, with his head protruding from the
opening. Thus far the diver has not
hurt himself.-Cincinnati Commercial

Raising the Price of Coal.

CHICAGO, Dec. 15.-In imitation of the
example and encouraged by the success of
the Eastern anthracite coal men, the East
ern miners of soft coal raised their prices a
few days ago. The higher prices made by
these men have made it possible for the
miners of Western coal to put an additional
% cents per ton On their product This OPP
portunity they have not neglected. and
prices were announced yesterday at 3d. 25
per ton by the carload on the track here, or
S1.75 per ton on cars at the mines. This
rate applies to pretty much all coal coming
to this market from points within the state.
The advance is favored by the temporarily
short supply in the market.

for them" 1t has been the good fortune of
your correspondent to have had assignments
to interview the general not less than fifty
times during the past ten years. The result
OF every attempt has been precisely the
same. The general hates newspapers and
newspaper men as his satanic majesty is
Teputed to hate holy water. His sufTeringS
during the early and closing days of the
war were indeScribable. The papers rep
resented him as a lunatic at first, and
traitor at last, when he had completed the
circle of the hunt and captured the last
armed foe. He has been dealt with I'M
justly and harshly. He is a proud, sensI-
tive man, and has suffered intensely. Hence
his bitter enmity to the profession. He
makes no exceptions. but has a set deter
mnation that it is his duty to hate journal
ism and journalists. hBeSides, he is a man
whose reputation has been made and who
can afford to frOwn upon whOmsOever he
pleases. He is changed but little since leav-
ing Washington. Active. nervous. straight
as an arrow. trimming over with wit
and good humoT. lie is popular everywhere.
His penchant for kissing young ladies

Manning May Retire.

SDecIaI to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-Unfounded
rumors continue to be circulated concerning
the designations of Secretary Manning and
Attorney General Garland. Mr.. Manning
believes that he Is daily improving in health
and has no intention of retiring. But the
secretary is mistaken. 1t is said by one
competent to Judge that the secretary is
wearing out his strength faster than nature
can provide it. His ultimate retirement is
almost certain to occur at all early date,
notwithstanding his heroic determination to
remain at his post. 1t is generally conceded
that his place will be filled by Senator Nc
Pherson, of New Jersey, when the change
becomes necessary. Attorney General CAL
land will remaiu IN the cabinet until the
4th of March, 1889. That is his intention,
and it is the wish of the president, too.
