Artesian Wells in Utah.

It has of late been discovered that flow
ing wells of water can readily be obtained
by boring from one hundred to two hun
dred feet in depth in all that part of Utah
lying northerly about one hundred miles
and southerly about two hundred miles
from Salt Lake City, and in the San Pete
valley.
This part of the territory is thickly
settled. Towns of from 500 to 5000
population are numerous, and farmers and
town residents are availing themselves of
this abundant and easily obtained supply
to the partial neglect of the old method of
irrigating bitches. A good flowing we'll

also be used where light power for churn-

would attribute it to a system of water

Looking out of . window In Stone street
the other day at noon the writer saw q

dozen morning papers under his arm He
was sitting upon the curb of the wet side.

ia pool of water that had accumulated
In hollow in the gutter. The little fell
low seemed to be very nervous. so much
so that he attracted the attention of the
passers by. He noticed that he was an
object of attention. and became quiet.
At length he glanced up and down the
street. Presently he seemed to feel salts
he'd that he was unobserved. He then
placed his papers in pool of water, al

the corner. As it was an uncommon
thing for newsboy TO destroy what he
could sell, the writer followed him for
block. Then he sat down upon door
step and spread all his papers around him
as II to dry them, bowed his head upon
his hands and seemed to cry.
In very short time crowd gathered
and began to discuss the woes of the
youngster before them. The boy had his
chubby fist filled with change from chari-
table but guileless strangers, whom he
informed with accompanying sobs that
some big boys knocked him down and
threw his papers in the water. The little
confidence operator was smart. He stuck
to his story. He repudiated hunger, poor
parents and expected beating, and simply
appealed to the sympathies of onlookers
through the wrong the weak had suffered
from the strong.
After this youthful Hungry Joe had
gathered all he could from his auditors,
he gathered torether his nanera a nd ynoxyad
around the corner, where he again spread
his net with as much success as at first.
Upon being questioned about his game
he became indignant, and wanted to know
why rich ''bloke couldn't let poor fell
low live" Then, with scowl, he gathered
up hi5 papers and disappeared. New York

Gold washing In California.

What an earth soaring, devastating pro-
cess that whole system of gold washing
has been to a portion of California; 1t has
torn down hills and mountains, filed up
lovely valleys and ravines with rock and
mud and left only bare rock and piles of
powders where were before shaded and
fertile little plains. This has taken place
over hundreds of miles of territory. But
nature repairs such ravages very quickly,
especially in California, where vegetation.
wild or cultivated. grows after a rapid
transit fashion. There it soon binds up
these earth scars with wild vines and
bushes. have seen saplings growing
through the roofs and barring the doors

deserted more than ten years.
so far as outward indications" went,
no set or perfect rule viii work in finding
gold. As to place or manner of deposit,
the diggings in one locality would be a
contradiction to those in another. The
heaviest gold was generally found deepest.
But sometimes the heaviest gold was
found on the top in the very grass roots.
Old miners finally dropped on an adage
that developed itself like many other
things out of the life and luck of the dig
gings. That adage was: Gold is gener-
ally where you find it." This worked.
There is no getting outside of it. The

texts to all who are disposed to embark in

Making Nitro-Glycerine Less Dangerous.
The alarming number of accidents which
occurred from the use of Nobel's oil, as
well as the great value of the discovery in
rnfrfnnr4 nx.o
ations called the attention of scientists to
the matter and they went to work to find
some means of destroying the danger
without impairing the efficacy of the com
pound. They soon discovered that If
nitro-glycerine be absorbed by any pull
verulent body it would afterward explode
only by percussion, and that the percus-
sion had TO be comparatively powerful. It
was mixed with fine clay made into cart
ridges or nodded in forms, to be sold in
bulk. Some German chemists EMPLOYED
sawdust as an absorbent and produced
what is now known as dynamite. Others
have used plaster of paris, chalk, mag
nesia, Fuller's earth and other inert pow
ders, and have produced the various ex-
plosives known as rendrock, rackarock
and the like.
The latest discovery in this line was
very recently reported from London and
is that of new compound called carbo-
dynamite. 1t Is composed of ninety parts
of nitro-glycerine absorbed by ten parts of
variety of carbon. One of the London
papers has published an account of num-
Der of experiments made with this new
compound, which, it is asserted, showed
that it possesses several important advan-
tages over ordinary dynamite. Among
other advantages it is said to have con-
siderably greater power, and to generate
much less noxious vapor by explosion

al Natural soan weII.

A natural soap well has been discov-
cred sixty eight miles west of Buffalo
Gap, d. I. The soap is SKINNED from q
boiling spring and hardens by exposure
to the air. 1t Is like soft clay, and can be
gathered with shovel, and is supposed
to be mixture of alkali, borax and the
lubricating oil found in many parts of
Wyoming. A sample has been tested by
prominent Chicago soap manufacturer,
and he reported the discovery worth the
full weight of the manufactured article.
Parties surrounding the springs have
used the natural article as axle grease
by adding little of the oil discovered
there, and it is pronounced the finest ma
terial ever used for that purpose. The
soap will wash in the hardest of water
and leave the hands much softer than
the ordinary article. The supply is sup
posed to be inexhaustible.- Brooklyn

1t does not appear that the sharp feel
Ing that characterizes the sentiments of
professional actors toward amateurs ex-
lists between professional and amateur
photographers. The fashionable summer
resorts on the seaside and in the interior
are literally thronged with amateur pho
tographers. all loaded for game in any
shape. The local professionals straighten
out all the muddles and mistakes into
which the blithesome amateur tumbles.
The aid Is given willingly, and not trace
of the bitter envy and almost positive
malice that is said to be rampant between
professional and amateur actors and ac-
tresses is noticed. A highly interesting
professional at the Thousand islands said
all the recent great improvements in pho
Biography, the instantaneous plate par
ticularly, were discovered by amateurs.
They have time and means to expert
ment, he added, land it is for our In
terest that the amateur Photographic
craze should continue. We, who are kept
busy for money, take advantage of all
these improvements. They bring us In
more money and save US time and many
of tho expenses incident to old days. -

Reserve Force of Middle Age.

We-at least persons who have passed
middle age-have only certain amount Of
reserve force, and all that we draw upon In
hurries is distracted from that which should
be distributed through the remainder of life.
The secret Of longevity is probably skill In
so economizing the reserve Of vital energy as
to make it last out an unusual period. Per-
sons who begin unusual exercise in youth
may adapt their constitutions to the habit,
and may thereby hold on to their full term
of life; but this cannot be done safely if one
waits till mature age before beginning

Difference In Pine Woods.

Carpenters find vast difference in the
pine woods they handle-a difference
which is generally accounted for by the
fact that the woods come from different
forests. For instance, the virgin pine
from Michigan is tough and will break,
splintering for three or four inches, while
the second growth wood from Massachu-
setts Is more brittle and less fbrous. This
fact recently gained suit for New
Haven contractor whose employer refused
to pay him, claiming that while part Of
the work was well done some of 1t had
been sighted. It was shown that the car
penters had been given two varieties Of
pine, one smooth and hard workable
and the other brittle and splintering -

From an analysis of over 5000 cases Of

the disease is very slight during early in
