An improvement has been made in the
Honigman soda or ~fireless locomotive. a
specimen Of which was tried on the
Adams Street Passenger railway n few
months ago. 1t is II new method of
evaporating the water out of the ~caustic-
soda solution after it has become too di.
lutte to be effective in heating. The
method consists in inverting the process.
The soda remains in its own tank, next
the water boiler, into which high pres
sure steam is turned from a stationary
boiler. The raised temperature Of the
water is communicated to the soda,
which is also in communication with the
air. The water in the soda is thus driven
off, until the boiling point of the soda So
luton is equal to the temperature Of the
steam which is being used used for heat
ing, after which the soda engine is dis
connected from the stationary boiler ano
is ready for use. -Scientiic Journal.

We have concluded at the expiration OF
our present copartnership, to change our
business from the mercantile to the land
and cattle business. With this object in
view, we will on Tuesday, April 20, place
our entire stock of dry goods, clothing
boots, shoes, hats, millinery and every
thing contained in our stocks at Cheyenne
and Fort FettermaD on the market at job
bers' wholesale prices, for cash.
This is the largest closing out sale ever
made in the territory, and considering the
large stock and our well-known business
principles, is sufficient to the public that
there never was such an opportunity to
buy goods before. We invite the mer-
chants Of the surrounding country to this
sale, as our stocks are now complete with
all the newest style goods. This being
the closing out and end Of our mercantile
business. we request all knowing them
selves indebted to us t. call and settle at

There was yesterday received in Cheyenne,
specimens of brittle silver, assaying from
$50 to $500 per ton. These are from a
mine located some sixty miles from Cehy-
enne, which has been worked at intervals
for the past year. A depth of eighty feet
has been reached, and the ore body from
which the specimens referred to are taken
is apparently inexhausti.le, and consists
of brittle silver, sulphides o. silver and
sand c%arbonates, the latter in especially
immense quantities. This bonanza is
partly owned by a gentleman resident in
Cheyenne, who justly feels himself one OF
Fortunes fvorites. The property is
christencd the "Avant Courier" from the
fact that it is situated in a district alive
with indications OF the valuable character

THE MOUNTAIN HOME.



Two years ago this spring two brothers
named Closson, from one OF the midland
counties of the old York state, came West
for a summers hunt in the Rocky noun
tains. Selecting the great watershed OF
the Green, Wind and Snake rivers as the
scene Of their summers sport, they pre-
ceeded thither. One day, some two weeks
after they had arrived IN the hunting
grounds, John, the eldest OF the two
brothers, failed to return to camp at the
close of a days hunt.
By dawn next morning Charles was in
search of his missing brother. Fer some
time he failed to find any trace, but at
length he heard the faint, lar away sound
OF a dog bark. As a large mastlff al
ways accompanied John on his mountain
tramp, Charles at once followed the sound.
1t led him to the edge Of a precipice, from
which the powerful bay OF the mastiff
came up full and clear. Following the
edge OF the ravine, the searcher found a
spot where broken bushes and displaced
rocks indicated the fall of a heavy body.
Thoroughly alarmed, he, after a long
search, discovered a place where the de-
scent of the face OF the cliff was possible.
With torn hands and garments he finally
reached the bottom, and guided by the
anxious bark OF the faithful. dog soon was

RETROSPECTIVE.

In 1851, says the Abberllle UedIum,
our country was filed up with gallant
young men and pretty gals. Itseem-
ed that the proportion wasj just about
right for them to pair off judicioasly.
The young men went to the war.
Tbey fell into battle and died from dis
ease until very few could return home.
The girls lived on in security and then
number was decreased only at the Or
dinary rate.
Now, let an Old soldier recur to
those days aud recall the boys and
girls who grew up with him. He can
tell where this and that boy died and
lie will find himself almost alone Bat
what has become Of the girls? He viii
find but few cd maids and mast Won,
der where they found husbands
Somc OF them have married several
times The more you think of it the
