REGISTER WILSON is discovering that
suddenly contracted friendships some
times have their disadvantages. The
SIN of yesterday w%illfully places him in
a false attitude on the Warren land mat
ter after his having for several months fed
public pap to Editor Slack. He may be
consolcd by the thought he is not the
only one who has been used in precisely
the same way by the same paper. The
late Governor Moonlight was coddled and
petted until a certain object was accom-
plished and then it heaped the vilest
abuse upon his head. Judge Bergman
and several other people have precisely
the same story to tell.
The Sun is a very nice, clean paper,
but its recolIections of past favors are
drowned in the anticipation of those to
come.

IT you'll seem at last as if fortune was
once more returning to Mrs. Kate Chase
Sprague, says a Washington letter to the
Albany Times, When Chief Justice
Chase died his estate was not supposed TO
be worth $780, 900, and Mrs. Chase, who
inherited the bad head for managing her
wi money affairs which distinguished
her father, managed to get md of her
share of 1t long ago, except the chief
Justices country place, Edgewood, near
Washington. Lately an electric street
railway has been extended out there, the
suburban farm has reached the neighbor-
hood and Mrs. Chase finds herself the
owner of one Of the most valuable proper
ties in the District. Her son, Willie
Sprague, who went with his father in the
SprAgue domestic troubles and afterward
married a sister of the woman his father
married, has separated from his wife and
returned to his mother. He is a young
fellow, not much over 81, and there is
hope for him.

w AMERICAN GIRL.

The great French actress, Nine. Jane
Hading. writing from Paris TO the New
York World, says of our American girls;
Most of the young American girls it has
been my lot to meet possessed beauty like
the English and piquancy like the French,
with something added in the shape Of
health and spirits, producing a tone OF
mind and a frame Of body we know little
about in France. They dress p~rettily.
with Just a touch of eccentricity, which,
howeg yer. becomes them exceedingly well.
They are genuine from head to loot and
perfect little Parisienncs in their way.
The Difference paid to them by the male
sex is warranted by the l~ullness OF quail.
ties they possess. They are, in fact, an
epitome of every creatures best. Be-
sides the beauty and piquancy | have allu-
ded to, they have a ~vivacity of intellect,
an aptness Of speech and address and a
noble u~prightness of purpose, which In
cludes every charm. and here again they
combine the Gallo and Saxon blood. No
where in the world are the women 80 ten
DERBY and so carefully considered as in the
United States, and that is no doubt why
the United States is the only country in
the world-not excluding my own-where

brunette in New York, blonde in Boston,
or sparkling and languid Creole in New

A multitude or Ailments.

The ailments which afiict the kidneys
and bladder are so numerous, that merely
to name them would fill a space far out
running the limits of this article. Suffice
it to say, that they are both obstinate and
dangerous. To their prevention Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters is well adapted.
The stimulus which it lends to the action
of the kidneys when they are lethargic,
serve to counteract a tendency in them to
lapse, first, into a state OF pernicious in
activity, and afterward into one of posi-
tive organic disease, which soon destroys
their delicate integuments, poisons the
blood and causes death. A double pur-
pose is served by this depurent. 1t pro-
notes actiqity of the kidneys and expels
impurities from the blood which have no
natural channel of outlet except these
organs. Constipation, biliousness, fever
and ague, rheumatism and dyspepsia, are
also remedied by this medicine of thorough
action and wide scope.

LANDING 4 BIG STURGEON.
An Exciting Time with a Fish Nearly as
Long as a Man.

An Exciting Time with a Fish Nearly as
Long as a Man.
Recently was puttingfn an afternoon at
Petaluma creek, fishing for salmon trout or
anything else 1t is tide water stream,
employing into San Pablo bay, and during
good portion of the year it is frequented by
variety of salt water fishes. The sturgeon is
a sly bitter, and sometimes mouths" the bait
ten or fifteen minutes before taking hold
On this occasion | had baited with a small
smelt and thrown into deep water from
small wharf The wind was blowing a gale,
so it was hard to tell when one had bite.
The poles were scattered along the wharf
taking care of themselves, when one of them
began to act queer The line would slacken
slowly several inches then grow taut, the tip
of the pole bending, then the line would
sacken again. 1t did this for several min
utes without change, and could not make
up my mind whether to pull or not. Then
suddenly the line sackened several feet This
is almost a sure indication of a sturgeon.
Quick as possible | struck and felt the hook
stick into something distreSsingy like snag,
it seemed so heavy and sluggish, but you
cant most always sometimes tell"
Slowly something below seemed to wake
up for all the world like a locomotive NOV
ing heavy train. Then, as it gained head
way, it got madden and madden, and the reel
hummed louder and louder, until it screamed
like little fend. Two hundred feet of
line ran out in a few seconds, and then, with
a splash as if horse had fallen into the
water, three feet of big, drab colored fish
plunged into the air He was evidently too
big to jump out all at once. Then he started
back up stream, and in spite of all the strain
| dared put on him, ran out nearly every foot
of the line from the reel My heart was in
my mouth for fear of an accident, but he
stopped just at the right time This fish
fought like a demon for one hour and half
actual time, and seemed determined not to
come to gait.
A Frenchman happened along just then,
and begged him to use the gaf. He stepped
on rock near the waters edge, but the fish
came up, and, seemingly with malice afore-
thought, with one flap of his tail wet the
kind helper from head to foot. He stepped
up and out as gracefully as possible. The
ish was finally landed and found to weigh
exactly forty pounds and to measure fifty
eight inches in length. While making q
slower fight than the trout, the surgeons
mad rushes are thrilling and exciting, and
believeth most fastidious angler will vote
him game fish after he has once landed a
big fellow with light tackle
Frequently have taken them on an eight
ounce split bamboo fly rod, with smallest gut
hook baited with worm Then their fight is
particularly pleasing, but would not care
to try one above four feet in length on that
kind OF tackle as half day is too long II

pered to the Hardness of Steel.
Having seen specimens of Peruvian an
tiquities in the Louvre of Paris and the Brit
ish museum, of London" says Mr.. Kiefer,
my impressions obtained then were fully
awakened when / engaged TO take service
with the Peruvian government during the
war with Chile My first venture into the
burying grounds of the Incas was accidental.
After our arrival in Lima we presented our
selves to Don Nicholas de Pierola, who was
then supreme chief, and few days later we
were requested to give an exhibition of our
torpedo practice in the open sea, near a town
twenty miles from Lima, named An
con. A pleasant engine, called the Favorita,
belonging to the Oroya railroad, was placed
at our service. Pierola and few aides-de-
camp, myself included, made up the party.
We reached Ancon without adventure, ex-
hibited our apparatus with satisfaction and
success, and started in return to Lima
AMONG THE MUMMIEs.
81 took a stroll around the pampa on the
side of the track, and was startled by finding
q human skull | climbed over the bank to
the north of the track and beheld a wonder
full sight. AS far as the eye could reach north
ward the ground was almost white with
skulls.
Il found bones mingled with pieces of cloth,
pottery, wickerwork netting, weed rope and
wood The ground bore evidence of immense
excavations. We picked up few relics in
the shape of mummified hands and arms and
the mummy of a child. After the entrance
of the Chilians into Lima the war was con-
sdered at an end, and took advantage of
the occasion to run down to Ancon for more
thorough investigation of the ground. As
there is nothing on the surface to indicate the
presence of a grave, it was with a shovel and
an improvised steel rod that began prospect
ing found that the nature Of the graves
varied in different localities. In some places
under the loose sand ! would come to a hard
stratum of earth, through which my shovel
would break, and then on using the rod it
would go down to depth of four or five feet
or more, marking the spot as a grave. In
other places could sound grave from the
surface, as therewas nothing between me and
its occupant but sand. At another place the
rod would strike against some reed or wood,
thus indicating a rooted grave, in which the
occupants are revealed surrounded with all
their worldly goods.
