PROVERBS.

All nations and ages have con-
densed the result of their experience
and observation into germs OF thought
called proverbs. They are often
called, "the flowers of popular Wis
DOM" or "The wisdom of the I'M
learned" in recognition of the fact
that it is the experience OF the mas
SEES, not the research of the student,
which has discovered and crystallzed
their treasures of wit and wisdom.
A most convincing proof of their
truth is the fact that they have stood
the wear and tear OF ages and are as
fresh to-day as when first coined.
Another peculiarly is that they seem
to us always the same; in youth, In
manhood and in old age they speak
the same language, and carry convic-
ton with the same strength. This is
true OF no other literature in the
world, because "we who read are not
the same interpreters" Life, with its
unfolding mysteries, has changed and
deepened our natures, and "few, If
any, book seems to US the same il we
read it again after many years have
passed." Max. Muller, the great
philologist, says: at is not the
words that others say to us, but the
words that they make us say to our
selves, in which we find our sharpesi
rebukes and our greatest lessons.
And proverbs are the result of those
moments when our reason, or our pas
sons, speak for us, "and we stand by
and wonder" We give here few
of the proverbs of different nations

Last week Butte shipped $4,000
in silver. That may not appear to be
very much, but it is considerably
more than any other mining camp in
the world produced in the same
length of time. Besides, In addition
to the silver, during the week there
were about 100000 pounds of cop
per sent out of the district. That is
about 100000 which, added to the
silver production, makes over $400,.
900. That is good weeks record
for the camp of Butte, and it is not
more than an average, either In.

Every lover of his country will adj

oath who have never read line OF
the constitution, and who cannot read
nor speak a word in English. They
GO through the farce OF naturaliza-

put it no stronger, this is wrong pol

Struck with PARALYSIS.

aoAt eleven O'Clock yesterday morn
ing it was noticed that Mr.. Christie
pher Leaming's cottage at Newhall
was closed up to an unusual hour, it
being the habit of Mr.. Leaning, it's
occupant, to be astir early. It was
therefore thought best to look into the
cause, and the door was forced. Mr..
Leaning was found lying on the floor
senseless. He was suffering from a
severe stroke Of paralysis, and ply
sician was summoned at once, who
applied such remedies as the case de-
manded. But at last accounts the un-
fortunate, man had not rallied or
recovered consciousness. and it is
feared the stroke will terminate
fatally. Mr.. Leaning is an old resident
Of this county and a pioneer Of the
State. He was among the very first
to discover and open the San Fer
nando oil district, and has acted as
Recorder of that district for over
twenty years. He was man greatly
liked by all who came in contact with
him, and his death would be deeply
regretted by large circle Of friends.

imbibed too much of the festive Juice

thought that he was monarch of all

pointed it in very threatening man

sembled round him. Officer Van
Luven happened to come along at the
time and took the unfortunate Dan to

charged with exhibiting deadly
weapon in a threatening attitude.

Officers Boland and Bowen for the
past few days have been on duty in
Chinatown and have prevented any
game of fan-tan being played therein
during the time that they have been
on duty in that part of the city. Yes
terday afternoon a game of fan-tan
opened up and the officers set them
selves to thinking how they could
get admission into the gam
bling den. After several prop
ositions had been discussed
they decided to get in through the
roof. After going through the Chi
nese theater they found narrow
alley leading to the gam bling room,
through which they passed and
emerged covered with cobwebs and
spiders; but their reward was great
when they found themselves on
the roof of the gambling
den. The Mongolians were so
interested in the game Of fan-tan that
was going on that they did not notice
the noise on the roof till the bars of
the skylight were torn from their fas-
Jennings, and the two determined Off
GERS dropped into their midst. Seven of
the almond-eyed gamblers were ar
rested and taken to the police station,
where they deposited $40 each for
their appearance before Justice King
on Monday.
