THE Highest Colony In California.

Life at the Lick observatory, over four
thousand feet above the ocean level, on a
lofty summit, with other mountain crests
only for neighbors, is an interesting study.
Here u.s., probably, the highest colony in
California. The astronomers and neces-
sary employees of the observatory form a
little world of their own, and few of them
care often TO go outside of it. The stage
that comes once day brings news from
the world outside and visitors curious to
see the wonders Of the mountain. A con-
tract with San Jose expressman secures
all needed freight once month and some
times oftener. A butcher with supplies
comes up the twenty eight miles of tortu-
Gus mountain road once week. Cows
and chickens are adjuncts of the commits
sary department. Quail, rabbits and deer
are plentiful in surrounding canons and
some of the sportsmen astronomers occa-
sionally bring them down. The summer
air is soft and SO rarifed as to exhilarate
and make great exertion seem slight. All
the astronomers came from cities, yet none
complain or sigh for attractions beyond
those revealed by the marvellous tele-
scopes.

serious matter in those days.
I arrived ut Dubuque, at which place
I expected to get letters from the
house. The only thing I got was a
telegram, short and to the point. It
said: $50 to McGregor for mail"
The next day found me in McGregor,
and there / found q letter from the
financier of the house that ordered me
to Waucoma, o small interior village,
twenty miles from any railway.
The letter said: "Your friend Will

of getting to Waucoma. / found after
little trouble that the nearest railroad
town was Calmar. So to that village
took the next train. arrived in
Calmar at about a. m. February IL.

in the town, and to it / Immediately
went. And to the man of spawned
horses and buggies I told by business |;
l told him I wanted q team and where
I wanted to 60.
The first thing he said to me was,
"Who do you know here?"
I told him that l was profoundly
happy to state that had no acquain-
lance in the bailiwick.
Well, them" he said, "in that case
you will have to put up for the rig"
I asked him to explain.
Well" he said, 1T is just like this,
the last drummer that got rig from
me, about a month ago, has not come
back yet; in fact, he stole the outfit.
He was chap like you, he knew no
body here. and 1 made up my mind
that strangers must put up the cash for
the rig, or no rig of mine can they
drive"
l said to him, "My friend,
I am not the proprietor of

Well, to make long story short, we
argued the matter in all its bearings,
and finally convinced him that horse
and buggy would be safe in my hands.
The way he expressed it was this:
"I'll be id if / don't try q
stranger once more. Harness Black

The horse-a large, rather good
looking beast. was hitched to an ordi-
nary buggy, and jumped in. After /
had got into the buggy, the livery-man
became communicative, and gave me
full instructions as to the route, say
ing,
IT do not think you'll get over the
creek at the Fort. Ii you cannot get
across, of course You can come back |;
it is but six miles to the creek and
twelve miles from the creek at Fort At

The Secret OF Success.

Improvidence is the besetting Amer
lean vice. No other civilized nation in
the world has so large proportion of
men, young and old, who live up to and
beyond their income. In no other
country does the versatility of the
people and the wide range of oppor-
tunity conduce to such frequent changes
of vocation as are seen here. Our
people are not lacking in "dig." We are,
as race, great workers. But our rest
lessness and ambition to get on rapidly
lead to frequent changes, and the saw
ing habit is not now so characteristic
as the spending habit. For the mere
