\ False Alarm.

Sheriff MulvenOn and party returned at noon to day from their trip to Ante lope and Weaver. To say that they were disgusted but feebly expresses the condition of their feelings. The Indians reported to have been seen there. proved on investigation to be myth. It origi- mated with Mexican named Siesto Lsrsvico. who few days since reported that his partner. "A man named Fowler had suddenly and mysteriOusly dis- appeared from camp. LaravicO and Fowler recently discovered rich placer mines m the vicinity and It was but q day or two afterwardss that Fowler dis appeared It is now generally believed, there, that the Mexican knows more concerning his disappear ance than he is willing to tell. Sheriff Nulvenon, ID his investigation, found that the Mexican himself had built the signal fires in different parts of the mountains, before returning tO camp with his story about Indians. Satisfy ing himself on that he questioned LH- vRrioO SO closely that be finally admitted that he had not seen any Indians, but had concOcted the story himself. Iudig- nation ran SO high and the citizens had become So thoroughly alarmed that but for lthe presence of the sheriff they would have lynched gLsrsvicO on the spot It Is thought now that the whole thing was done for the purpose of at tempting to conceal a crime, and n most rigid snd thorough investigation will be had to get at the bottom Ot it and solve the my stery of Fowler's disap- pearance.-JUurnal-Miner.

General Miles Plan for the ApacheS

General Miles Plan for the ApacheS.
 A gentleman just in from Arizona who had long conversation with Gen. Miles st Tucson reports that officer Very much on the alert for the sub!ugation of the ssvages. The day this person saw Miles a detachment of cavalry had just arrived from long chase m the mountains after the hOstIies. They had been out two weeks Bnd were utterly used up. as well as their animals. The men had slept but little and had been short of rations for days. The horses fared DO better, and neither men nor beasts would be fit for smother campaign for many days. General Miles said this was the trouble m subduing the hostiles. His forces are altogether inadequate. When Indian depredations arc reported Bt any point, messages must be sent the troops at a distapce from them, and by the time the scene of the massacre or plundering IS reached the red skins are far away. Miles wants more troops so that he can place small bands veil supplied with everything in the mountains, along the passes and trsIls, and then fl there IS a raid the soldiers will be near by and can get on fresh trail with some hope of striking the wil1 murderers. before they get cut of reach. Such plan looks busIness-like, earnest snd practi- cal. There is DO milk and water ID Miles. He is sure there is no good h. dian slive--Los Angeles Herald.

MAKING GLOBES.
How the Miniature Representa- tfous of the
Earth Are Manufactured

How the Miniature Representations of til e
Earth Are Manufactured.
Our library and school education al
globes have. perhaps, been a puzzle tc
many an inquisitive mind. they being
so light, so easily turned on their axis
and so smooth as to appear more like
natural exact productions than mechan
zeal constructions. The material of the
globe is thick, pulpy paper, like soft
straw board, and this is formed into two
hemispheres from disks. A fiat disk is
cut in cores or radical pieces, from
center to circumference, half of the
cores being removed and the others
brought together, forming a hemispher-
ical cup. These disks are gored und err
a cutting press. the dies of which are so
exact that the cores come together at
their edges to make perfect hemisphere.
The formation is also done by press
with hemispherical mold and die. the
edges of the cores being covered with
glue. Two of these hemispheres are
then united with glue and mounted on a
wire. the ends of which are the two
axes of the finished globe. All this
work is done while the paper is in a
moist state. After driving, the rough
paper globe is rasped down to a surface
by coarse sand-paper, and then re-
ceives coat of paint or enamel that
will take clean. smooth finish. The
instructive portion is a map of the
world printed in twelve sections. each
of lozenge shape, the points extending
from pole to pole. exactly the same as
though the peel of an orange was cut
from stem to bud in twelve equal di-
visions.
These maps are obtained in Scotland.
generally. although there are tive or
three establishments elsewhere which
produce them. The paper of these
maps is very thin but tenacious, and
is held to the globe by glue. The
operator-generalE a woman-begins
at one pole, FASTING with the left hand
aad laying the sheet with the right,
working along one edge to the north or
other pole. coaXing the edge of the
paper over the curvature of the globe

dcwn the entire paper to an absolutely
smooth surface. As there are no
laps TO these lozen@e sections. the
edges must absolutely meet. else there
would be a mixed up mess, especially
among some of the islands of the great
and in the arbitrary polit-
ical borders of the nations. This Is
probably the most exact work in globe
and vet it appears easy. be-
cause the operator is so expert IN coax
ing down fitness and in expanding
scantv portions. all the time keeping
resolute relation and perfect joining
with the other sections and to their
edges. The metallic work-the equators,

The Queer Method of Choosing King
Prevailing Among the Chilkst Indians.
As among nearly all savages. the
women are hrutalized. but they appear
to have one pHerogative of the most
singular character that is Wen worth
relating. Nearly everything deseends
on the mother side. Vet a chattel may
be owned. or At least controlled, bv the
men. although traveller will notice
many bargains wherein the woman's
consent is first obtained. The ROYAL
succession is most oddly managed with
reference to women = rights. The heir
apparent to the throne is not the oldest
or any other child of the King and Queen.
but is the Queens nearest blood
relative of the male persuasion.
although the relationship may be no
closer. perhaps. than that of cousin.
As this curiously chosen King may
marry anv woman of the tribe, it is easy
to see that any one may in this indirect
wav become the sovereign of the saw
ages. and with the help of luck alone
may acquire royal hOnors. One rich
Indian woman of Sitlka. who took q
f:,bcv to slave. purchased him for the
purpose of converting him into hus-
band. at cost of nearly thousand
dollars in goods and chattels. and if he
was not very expensive thereafter he
NAV have been cheaper than the usual
run of such bargains. Lieutenant

A Lady Describes How a Train Was Run

The night was SO pleasant that we
slept sitting up till the new conductor
woke US after leaving Nickerson. The
morning remained pleasant till an
ominous cloud appeared in the south
west extreme horizon, at Florence, as
the train pushed out. 1t rose higher
and extended northward, like great
dark wave. entirely obliterating the
light of the sky over which it spread.
As 1t rose higher and spread wider. it
became impregnated with that lurid
green dye that seems to indicate death
and fearful storm. At this time there
was scarcely q breath of air, but the
great black. greenish volume had dark
ened all the earth around and almost
made use of lamps in the cars necessary.
An earnest prayer for preservation filled
my soul, when all at once came tn e
conviction: Move to the other side. -
By this time the sky on the north

IMPORTANCE OF CAPITALS.
The Defenseless State of England In Cas-
London Were Captured.

The Defenseless State of England In Case
London Were Captured.
Napoleon enunciated this as a mill
tary principle in his reflections at St.
Helena, giving his reasons, and attrib-
utlng his rapid conquests of Austria
Prussia and Spain to the defenseless
state of their capitals. and the loss of his
own kingdom in 1914 to the same de-
feet. In the war between Prussia and
Austria in 1866 the latter power made
peace when the capture of Vienna be-
came almost inevitable. When the
French and Germans fell out in 1870
the French cry was "a Berlin;'' and the
German hosts having cleared the French
field armies out of the way, fastened
their grip on Parti as the vital point.
The enormous development of the Ger
man force, and the long-conntinued oc-
cupatlon of the country before they
could force the city to surrender to
blockade, afford measure of the adj
vantage of fortifying Il capital as 4 means
or preventing an attack upon It
The Crimean war and the Italian w ar Of
1899 might seem exceptions to the rule
that the capital is the vital point, but
they are not The first was undertaken
as a means of preventing Russia from
taking or threatening the capital of
Turkey, which is, besides, a most i'm
portant strategic point. The second
was in sense a local war for an out
lying province of Austria. in which
that State was not itself invaded
at all; nevertheless. the capture
of the capital of Lombardv was fol-
lowed by the evacuation of that province
by Austria, and the battle of Solferino
was only necessary TO prevent her at
tempting to recover it. London. be-

London would therefore paralyze our

transfer the seat of Government else

cessible to a foreign army and equally

idea of our position in case we lost COM

BEE-CULTURE.
The Annual Profit to Be Derived From
an Ordinary Hive.

The Annual Profit to Be Derived From
an Ordinary Hive.
As to how much honey may be ex-
peeted from each hive no one can give
correct answer. A swarm may store a
large supply one season and fall short
the next. The temperature of the at
mosphere. the duration of the winter,
the length of the following season, and
the number and kind of plants within
their reach affects the result. Then,
again, something depends upon how
much the bees are assisted. BY supply
ing artificial comb. and arranging the
hives so as to permit the colony to have
plenty of cells to till, as well as keep up
their numbers, they will perform
greater amount of work. Bookkeeping
IS science, and he who engages in the
business should make himself familiar,
not only with the habits of the bees,
but also with the condition of the colo
MES ut all periods of the year. as
well las with the plants upon which the
bees work. By strict attention to his
duties New York bee-keeper succeeded
in netting twenty dollars per hive from
his bees for thirteen years, the number
of hives being forty-two- We may es-
timate much lower than such figures for
the average bee-keeper. and allow only
five dGllars as the net profit. which. con-
sidering the ease with which the bee
keeperwill secure that proportion. is an
amount that will amply reward the
owner. The profit depeRas upon the
food and its abundance ms wen as the
number of colonies. 1t is much better
to have.anly ten strong colonies, yield
ing ten dollars per hive than twenty
weak colonies that produce only five
dollars per hive. As rule. the major
ity of bee-keepers are induced to keep
too MANY bees which is not always the
more profitable method.-Euna, Field
and !Stockma3l.
