Lippinoott's Monthly Magazine.

The extraordinary success of the
"The Quick or the Dead ?" renders the
appearance of a new novel by Amelie
Rives, in the April number of Lippin-
colts Magazine. an event in the liter
AIRY world. "The Quick or the Dead ?"
has been more widely read and discus
sed than any novel Of recent times.
"The Witness of the Sum-" Miss Rives's
new story, is replete with dramatic
situations, and gives further and
stronger evidence of her rare power in
depicting human emotions. 1t deals
with wider range of characters than
the Quick or the Dead ?" and will un-
doubtedly create an equal if not a
greater sensation. Richard Henry
Stoddard gives an unusually interest
ing biographical study of Bayard Tay-
Tor. Stoddard and Taylor were friends
and comrades for thirty years. and the
article is chiefly made up of personal
recollections, while an appreciative es-
innate of Bayard's worth as poet is
given. Alice Wellington Rollins has
an amusing little skit, called IF He
Had Known" which, by the space that
it occupies, proves once more that
"brevity is the soul Of wit" 1.-TWO
Nights in Bohemia" is very clever
sketch by an unknown writer. Edgar
Saltus, who is looked upon as an apos-
tie of pessimism, and who always
writes cleverly, however he may be
disagreed with, descants upon What
Pessimism is Not" lie shows that
pissimism has its roses as well as its
thorns, and breaches the doctrine of
"blessed is he that expects little.

The Rnu por.s nisnosition.

The bull dog is much more easy to train and control than is generally sup posed. am convinced that he possesses quite as much brain power as any of the larger dogs. His appearance is very much against his character for gentle ness and this has caused people to shun and avoid him, so that his disposition, however pleasant it may have been orig inally, has been made cross and savage by the treatment which he has received, though he is even now much less ferocious than sse is believed to be. Nodog is ca pablo of greater affection than he, or shows more gratitude for any kindness. Pure high bred dogs of any kind are hard to train, for the reason that they are too high spirited. Themongrels of the street can be much more easily trained, because they can be much more easily controlled. Cor. Chicago Journal.

 A ten round glove contest between John Aaron of Boston and Dan Ma honey of this city light weights preceded the fight.
 Lucie was seconed by Tom Warren and Jack Welch: Le Blanch by Paddy German and Martin Murphy. In the first two rounds Lucie did most of the fighting, getting to Le Blanche,s face easily and in the third round claiming first blood. In the 10th Le Blanche got in a right handler on Lucie's nose which knocked him down. This reused Le Blance and advancing with the right foot he knocked the Philadelphia boy down again with a terrible left hand blow. In the 12th round Le Blanche forced the fight giving Lucie right and left blows in the face, knocking him down again with left handler in the eye. In the next round Lucie was a trifie groggy and Le Blanche knocked him flat with right handler. Lucie arose at the expiration of 10 seconds ap- parently unhurt but the fight was a. warded to Le Blanche.

A CHANGE FOR INVENTORS.

ACCORDING to the Virginia City (Nev) Enterprise, the fortune that awaits the inventor of a successful dry-placer machine, or any method by which the geld in the loose dirt on the hills and mountains of Nevada can be separated. will make the present wealthy men of the world have, by comparison, dismal anticipations of the poor house. The | experiment has often been tried. and as often the result has only been partially successful, often sufficiently encourag- ing to induce continued effort, but never so far has profitable working test been made. Frequent failure, however, does not discourage those who have a con ception of the possibilities, and detail after detail of discovery and improve ment will be made until dry working is | achieved.
 Owing to the specific gravity of gold, | which enables us to collect it by the use of water, wind will probably be the chief agent of separation. The numer- ous contrivances for that purpose now in existence depend more or less upon the principle by which grain is separa- ted from chaff, and the experimentors have usually directed their attention to notifications of the form and structure of the familiar winnoWing machine.
 The severel methods of utilizing the air have at times been combined with amalgamating plates and with a moder- ate use of water, which is made to do continuous service. The failure in the sense of profitable working has usually been due to the relatively small quanti- ty of metal saved; that is, the returns have not justified the outlay. There is no question as to the feasibility of making the weight of particles of gold operate in collecting themselves in distinct mass. It is and always has been only the ratio between value received and value expended that must be overcome by the successful dry separator. Heretofore the winds have been supplied by artificial means, and its application has necessarily been lim- ited. Some time the natural motion of the air will be applied on a large scale and in such a manner that by repeated flaming the dry earth may be blown away from the heavier metal. Great air concentrators will be devised that can be operated at an expense merely nomi nal, and the problem will be practically solved. When this is accomplished, the Enterprise adds the wind, which, like the poor, we have always with us, will blow health and prosperity for Nevada

Clear the Way

Without loss of time when the intesti.
 nal canal is blocked up by reason of con-
 stipation, chronic or temporary. Ii should be borne in mind that this ail-
 ment is prone to become lasting and ob- stinate, and breed other and worse com
 plaints. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is the precise remedy to remove the ob- struction effectually, but without drenching or weakening the blockaded bowels, consequence always to be ap- prehended from the use of violent laxa- tives, which are among the most perni- cious of the cheap nostrums swallowed by the credulous and misinformed. The fiat of experience, and of the medical fraternity, sanction the claims of this standard aperient. Not only as source of relief and permanent regularity of the bowels, liver and stomach, but as a means of remedying and preventing kidney and bladder troubles, and fever and ague, it is without peer.
