osterhaut Hitched to the Coast.

Smith w. OSterhaut, of Grand Rapids
Mich, has just returned from spending the
winter on the Pacific slope, and while he
was there he travelled pretty extensively
among the timber regions, and as practi-
cal lumberman, found much that inter
ested him. He estimates that there are
about 50,000,000,000 feet of redwood tim
Der standing in California waiting for the
ak and saw, and about four times that
amount of fir. The redwood will average
10000 to 100000 feet to the acre, while
some especially fine tracts will run up as
high as 100000. 1t grows almost entirely
In mountainous regions, and logging is
more expensive and harder work than in
Michigan. The trees are often six, eight,
ten and twelve feet in diameter, and some
have been found twenty-five feet through,
and it is almost impossible to handle logs
of that size. The trees are chopped and
sawed down, into lengths, and are then
cut by steam donkeys and usually
hoisted upon the logging cars to be
transported to the mills At many
of the mills streams have been damned
up to form pond into which
the logs are dumped, and then drawn up
by chains to the saws. In the modern, re-
Gently built mills, the band saws have been
adopted almost exclusively, and give good
satisfaction, especially in handling the
large size logs. In many of the older
mills, "mulay" or the upright saw is used,
and In others a combination of three saws
does the work. Many Eastern capitalists
are going into the Pacific slope forests
making investments and operating, espe-
cially in Oregon and Washington Terri
tory, where the fir and pine grow. The
redwood lands are held mostly by Califor-
mans, but Michigan and Minnesota men
are getting a hold there too. The red
wood is especially useful for siding, roofing
and interiors, being almost freproof while
the tir is used extensively for .joists, floor
ing and timbers. The two kinds Of lum-
Der work WELL and are extensively used to-
gether in house building The California
!umbermen seem now to be doing well, but
it has only been since the boom started
that they have prospered.-Eastern En-

Unique TeIegraph system,

There has been growing up among the
farmers of county in Michigan tele-
graph system which might be generally
extended throughout the rural districts
everywhere. The system began by two
farmers connecting their houses with
wire for their own convenience and oper-
ating their line with the Morse instru-
ments. Gradually other farmers extended
the line to their houses, and after time
the wire was run into the neighboring
village. Seven years ago the combined
farmers and a few village merchants Or
ganized themselves into a company, and it
has since been extended until now it has
sixty-ive miles of wire and ninety offices,
two-thirds of the latter being in farm
houses, and nearly all the rest in stores
where the farmers do their trading. One
or two newspaper offices, as many more
railroad freight offices, the county tele-
phone exchange and the larger postoffices
are all connected. Every farmer is his
own operator, battery man and line re-
pairer. OF course any quantity of private
communication is kept up between the
stockholders Of the Independent system
There are two are three Independent sys-
TENS of these lines in operation in the
county, arranged so that they can be con-
nected with each other at interesting
points, and the whole scheme is being
worked very cheapiy aud successfully

ton in public exercises on Independence
Day. In some instances, also, newspaper
offices were raided, simply because their
managers favored the adoption of ma
tional bond of union. Most of these saw
age spirits lived long enough to perceive,
and in many cases to admit, that they had
been wrong, but there is little doubt that
their heads, not their hearts, were in
fault. 1t would require lively magma

it remained under the straw bonds of a

Fourteen Living Husbands.

There is woman living in Mexican
county, in this State, says the Pittsburg
Dispotch, who has married fourteen hus-
bands. She is known as Mrs. Ida Hoosted.
Her chief attraction is her Juno like form.
She is tall and magnifcently proportional,
and looks as if the winds of thirty-eight
winters, more or less, might have toyed
with her abundant dark-brown tresses.
When scarcely out of her short dresses
she contracted her first marriage. She has
been after men ever since, and is now liy-
ing with husband No. IA. The other thir-
teen husbands are all in the flesh and are
all on good terms with the marrying
woman. She has been legally separated
from all her alliances, and was only mar
ried few months ago to No. IA.

She wanted "to go home" and she had
her desire. 1t was in the cold, misty
morning that they had found her quite
dead, her head resting on the table beside
faded bunch of violets, little enamel
pencil that had once been attached to a
ball programme, and curl of bright
brown hair.

Weary and Worn,

When the tired factory operative, the
weary outdoor laborer, the overtasked
bookkeeper or clerk seeks a medical recon-
pense for expenditure of bodily force, where
shall he find it? Could the recorded expe-
Renee of thousands of workers be voiced,
the verdict would be that Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters renews failing strength, stimu-
lates the jaded mental powers to fresh &C
tivity aud relaxes undue nervous tension
as nothing else does. Digestion, regular
habit of body, appetite and sleep are pro-
NOTED by it, and it is an admirable auxil-
larry in the recovery of health by GONZALES

by it, and to persons of both sexes in deli

Of an efficient tonic, the whole range of the

THE r LAST WALTZ.

"You do not know how wretched l feel
at the thought of leaving America and
you. 1t seems like death, and you do not
care enough to look even sorryr
The speaker is good-looking young
man, with remarkably effective gray
eyes, which are pleading very eloquently
for their owner, and yet the young lady
on whom they are fixed smiles carelessly,
opens her fan and contemplates the
courtly group of knights and danes painted
thereon, as if the gray eyes were not plead
ing, or sad, or reproachful at all, but like
her own, calmly smiling.
" Do you know sail the day after to-
morrow he continues, desperately.
$50 soon ?' she says, raising her fan, so
that her face is hidden from him. Well.
] hope you will have safe and pleasant
voyage"
you scarcely seem to care whether it is
safe or not As to being pleasant. you
might as well hope the earth will stand
still p
captain Talbot does not intend me to
stand still, anyway" returns the girl
lightly, Have you no partner for this
dance p
And then she glides away with her
partners arm round her waist, and Victor
Lorrimer stands looking gloomily after
her.
Finally the music ceases; the waltz
comes to an end. Lorrimer's gray eyes
follow reproachfully the girl who just
passed him on the arm of Captain Talbot.
