A short and Compact Novel.

Lately / had a talk with an author
about his book, and he told me how il
came to be no larger than it is. He said
he had formed the idea in his own mind
that short, compact, straightforward
story was what the public demanded at
the present time. He had also talked
with book men, he said, and they had
confirmed him in this view. Stories
which can be read in three or four
evenings are the most popular. People
were tired, he said, of long descriptive
passages, lugged in apparently for the
mere purpose of lengthening out the
story.
So he had determined to make his
story plain, simple and short; to go right
to the pith of the matter, and tell his tale
straight through from beginning to end,
without any of those breaks of long,
tedious description upon which the
novelists of the Henry James school SO
much pride themselves. This fact ac-
counted. he believed, for his being able
to find a publisher for his volume with
out difficulty, when more ambitious and
perhaps more meritorious ventures were
declined on account of their prolixity.
The idea struck me as being good one
and worthy the attention of aspirants
for literary honOrs.-Chicago journal.

The Result of Partisan Ingenuity.

"Rhine stones, Lake George gems and
Brazilian diamonds will have to shine
from a back seat now" said leading
wholesale jeweler to reporter. Paris
has produced an imitation of the dia-
mond which even experts find some diff
6culty in distinguishing from the gen.
uine. II is made Of strass, a variety Of
flint glass containing more than the
usual proportion of lead, and in some
cases a smaller proportion of borax. The
strass is subjected 10 an intense heat and
then plunged into hot water, by which
process it is contracted and its refraction
power increased.
"The Jumps Of strass are then cut and
polished precisely the same as the genu-
inc diamond, a leaden wheel, oil and dia-
mond dust being used. They are graded

Maps Made by Native GrcenIanders.

In the collections recently taken to
Denmark from the east coast of Green
land by Capt. Holm are several objects
that have excited the astonishment of
European geographers. They are maps
made by the natives. The maps are en-
graved with their rude cutting imple.
ments on boards that drifted ashore.
They were found among the natives who
live along the shores of deep ford near
the most northern point attained by
Holm. Only ten or twelve of these 400
people have ever visited the Danish set
Elements in south Greenland. owing TO q
stretch Of glaciers and ice fields which
have SO nearly isolated them from the
world that their existence was not known
until recently. They had never seen a
white man until Holm and DIR. Knutzen
came among them.
Some of these curious maps, Can't
Holm says, represent quite accurately
the contour Of the coast, with all its
many big and little indentations, along
which they live. Other maps give the
outlines of islands lying near the coast,
and the explorers say the maps repro
duce the shape of the islands with good
degree Of fidelity. New York Sun.

country of an overflowing population,

Author Of the First American Tale.

ROYAL Tyler was not only the author of
the first American drama, but also wrote
the first American tale. This was the
"Algerine Captive, which went through
two editions. but is now a very rare book.
1t has no plot. and was written to show
up errors of the times, and especially the
absurdity Of paying tribute to the Alger-
ines for the privilege Of sailing in the
Mediterranean unmolested. Ii may now
seem almost incredible that the United
States was once subjected to this humil-
iating condition, but such is history.
Our government, however, eventually
sent squadron TO Algiers under De-
catur, who soon taught this nation of
pirates to respect our flag.
To return to the aforementioned tale,
i may say that in early childhood came
across copy, and / well remembered
that the author mentions that while yet
lad he was SO deeply interested in
"Pilgrim's Progress" that he stuck a
pin in Apollyon's eye in order to help
Christian out of the fight" The author
published this book under a nom de
plume, and the title page was, THE Al
gerine Captive; or, The Life and Ad.
venture Of DIR. Updike Underhill, Six
Years Prisoner Among the Algerines." /"
The book was popular, and Tyler might
have continued his attention to fiction,
but the next year Q79s) Charles Brock
den Browns first novel appeared, and
this checked all rivalry.-Cor. Cincin-
matt Enquirer.

MINUTE DIVISION OF LABOR.
The MetIiods Of Carrying on Business In
the French Capital.


the French Capital.
The manner of carrying on business in
France has much to do with the suffering
caused by commercial depression. Labor
and trade are divided to an inconceiv'
able degree of minuteness. The variety
of goods that one person sells, whether
at wholesale or retail, is exceedingly linn
ited, in order not TO trench on the busi'
ness of another. II is rule that books
and stationery must be sold by different
persons. A butcher does not sell all
kinds of meat one sells beef, or beef
and mutton: another pork, and still an
other the animals head, tongue, liver,
lights and kidneys.
II often happens that in the line of
toilet article, YOU must look for applica-
tions for the face and beard in one place
and for the head aud hair in another. II
one wants lamp and appointments, he
buys the lamp at one shop. then searches
the city for an oil can, and having found
one, purchases his oil. with the expense
Of considerable further muscle at a third.
n ileilNh hluS htolS hStPS i'bhihS "ue
drugs and medicines, or il i; is little
Anglicized or Americanized, perhaps
little tooth paste or some similar staple
article. Tooth paste or powder is found
at one end Of the city and a toothbrush
at the other. Butter, cheese and milk
constitute a separate branch of trade,
wholesale and retail, sometimes each of
these articles by itself.
The same rules apply to all other lines
of trade and manufacture with more or
less strictness. The convenient show
case seen IN American stores, in which
is found collection of small articles in
common use, is never seen in French
shops. The advantages of this minute
division of labor are these. A large pro-
portion of the population find employ
ment in some of these branches of busi-
ness, and when times are good every
body is relatively prosperous. But when
the current of affairs changes, the shops
which have increased 10 an unreasonable
number and have bought largely pre-
suming OF the continuance of prosperity.
find themselves overstocked, and the
result is poverty and disaster on all
sides.
There are some exceptions to the sys-
tenn. Within few years there have
grown up in Paris and in the large pro-
vincial cities large general stores, or
bazaars, where almost everything of per-
sonal necessity, except eatables, can be
found at slightly reduced prices. These
places are numerous in Paris, and they
are almost the only ones that are excep-
tons to the prevailing commercial stag
nation. There are some other exceptions,
such as the sale of bread and pastry in
the same shop, but they are not numer-
GUS. One of the most absurd results of
a system which is to a certain extent
necessary have been the cafes as they
exist at present in France, The hotels
and restaurants do not furnish coffee
without an addition to the bill. You eat
your dinner in one place and take your
coffee in another. Hence the evolution
of separate branch of business, and the
employment of thousands of bonnes and
garcons who would otherwise swell the
pauper list.-San Francisco Chronicle.

Consequences of killing Birds.

@Steps are being taken to pass laws in
every state of the Union to make il a
criminal offense to kill birds for any pur-
pose, except strictly game birds used for
food and such birds as are needed for
scientific purposes"
"How can YOU make a crime out of a
matter of sentment!'
This is something more than a matter
of sentiment, something much more.
The loss Of the birds which are almost
insectivorous has already caused quite
appreciable loss ON the farmers crops,
and we are destined Ia see plague of
insect life 50 great rs 10 entail important
commercial consequences to the country
at large. Nothir- nut birds can regulate
the increas, oi insects and keep it within
bounds. and To destroy the birds as we
have done t. i crime of the highest order
against so.a3y AMI will cause loss and
waste inralcuHblc.

thesis;"

to-day some one will suffer loss, some
one will go hungry and lose some joy
out of life. If il would be a crime to
destroy the grass of the fields and hills,
because gra,, is necessary for the support
of life, SO il is crime to destroy that
which mature has provided as the sole
protector of that and its kindred grain,
the birds. Nothing can make il less than
a crime: crime against the order of the
world, against human society and well
fare.-Chicagu Tribune Interview.

HALEY AND ERA.
A Mail Route Needed Between These
Two Points.

John Ward, the stage man, got in
from Era last night, and reports a
very cold and slow trip, owing to the
recent storm. He does not propose to
make another round trip this winter,
and hardly thinks that the road be-
tween Era and Haley can be kept
open, as there are few settlers along
the road, and the trade with Wood
River, though not by any means in
considerable, will not suffice.
The mail, too, will have to be car
ried around by way of BlackfoOt.
The people there have asked for a
mail route between Haley and Era
for long time, but the administra.
ton refuses it.

This camp has been making active
preparations of late, for the coming
winter.
The Bannock Company's mill is in
full operation. For completeness and
finish, it is pronounced one of the fin
est ever erected on the Coast. The
mill is supplied with 200 incandescent
lights and other late inventions, which
tend to make it a success. For the
winter, the working force at both
mine and mill has been limited to
25 men each. More will be added
from time to time. Professor Whit.
lev, Hailey's dancing-mas has
charge of the boarding house at the
mill.
The hoisting-works at the Horn Sill
yer are up and in running order. 1t
is the intention to sink a 4OO-foot
shaft. They are already down dis
tanoe of 100 feet, where a rich vein
was struck.
Regular shipments are being made
from the Hub, Valley, and other
mines on Lava Creek.
Frank Grinnell, a well-known miner
on Lava Creek, died here Wednes
day, after a short illness of typhoid
pneumonia. He was good fellow
and highly respected by all.

THE GOLD BELT.
IL VIII "B0om" Just as Soon as the
ores Are Reduced Properly,

1t VIII "Boom" Just as Soon as the
Ores Are Reduced Properly.
The development of the Gold Belt
will naturally cause inquiry into the
best methods of reduction, as the
mills there have heretofore simply
been reducing the ores for what gold
they could catch, allowing the larger
and better part of the precious metals
to run to the tailings reservoir. But
this wasteful system will soon have to
be abandoned for a more satisfactory
one that will work the ores up to the
50 per cent. which is common now, in
old mining districts.
What that system or process will
be--whether chlorination, or lixivia-
ton, or what, remains to be deter.
mined by actual and exhaustive ex-
periments; but certain it is that the
owners of mines on the Gold Belt
can no longer be satisfied with the
low percentage heretofore obtained.
If a really first class mill Is ever
built to reduce Gold Belt ores it will
make such record that the public
will be astonished and wonder how SO
much wealth has been permitted to
lie dormant so long. Then will come
a genuine and lasting boom, for HALEY
and the Gold Belt.
