Wide publicity has been given lately
10 the reported discovery by the United
States fish commissioner steamer Alba
tross OF the extensive codfshing banks
Oft San Diego The journals of the
southern C Jast towns have been much
Impressed with the importance of the
discovery. and nave had much to say
about it. Old fishermen, who know well
the habits of the cod, have been 10th to
believe that the fish could be found in
any great numbers in such warm water
and such an exposed position as desig-
mated, in the region OF st. Nicholas Isl
and. Evidently there is something wrong
about the announcement. AS far rs the
banks and shoals are concerned, these
discoveries have been marked on
coast survey charts for the past thirty
five years. The coast survey vessels
have often sounded in the locality men
toned, and there has been more or less
fishing done by them, but never has
there been any cod found. The currents
there are very strong, and any vessel of
size can remain near the banks only
with much difficulty. That the reported
cod banks ear Cape Lookout, on the
upper coast, will prove of value is con
sidered very likely. for there are many
of the surroundings hal fishermen CON
slider most favorable to the cod.-San
Francisco Bulletin.

On Aug. A, 1886, Charles E. Burnes
and Nathan Hubbard left Linkville, Ore,
on n prospecting tour to find the "Lost
Cabin in the mountains. For years the
Lost Cabin has been one of the tradi-
tions Of that section, and many n search
has been made for it md the gold that is
supposed to be waiting for the finder.
Nothing was again heard of the two
men until n few weeks ago, when a cat
tie herder found their camp and their
skeletons in n dense wilderness near Dia-
mond lake, fifty miles from Fort Kla-
math. The skeletons were found heal
together, wrapped in their blankets and
clothed. Their guns stood against q, tree
near by. A small sum Of money was in
one of e'men's pockets, and a watch,
so that 1t seemed certain that they had
not beer murdered and robbed. A diary
and n postal card addressed to Burnes
mother served TO identify them. The
diary was carried to Aug. 81, 1886, SC
the men had been dead nearly three
years. But how they died will probably
be one of the mysteries of the Diamond
lake region.-Chicago Herald.

Paper In tho Household.

do not propose to speak of the many
useful and wonderful articles that are
manufactured from paper, but merely
of the valuable uses to which it can be
put by the housekeeper. Few house,
keepers have time to black their stoves
every day. or even every week. Many
wash them in either clear water or dish
water. This keeps them clean, but they
look very brown. After a stove has been
once thoroughly BACKED, it can be kept
looking perfectly well for a long time by
rubbing it with paper every morning.
If 1 occasionally End a spot of gravy
or fruit juice that the paper will not
take of, l rub it with q wet cloth, but
do not put on water enough to take off
the backing. l find that rubbing with
paper is a much nicer way of keeping
the outside of my tea kettle, coffee pot
and tea pot bright and clean han the old
way of washing them in suds. (The in
side of coffee and tea pots should DO
rinsed in clear water and never in the
dish water.)'
Rubbing with dry paper is also the
best way of polishing knives, spoons and
tinware after securing. This saves wet
ting the knife handles. If a little -four
be held on the paper in rubbing tinware
and spoons, they shine like new silver.
For polishing windows. mirrors, lamp
chimneys, ETC., 1 always use paper in
preference to a dry cloth.
Preserves and pickles keep much bet
ter if brown paper instead of a cloth is
tied over the jar. Canned fruit is not
SO apt to mold if a piece of writing pa
per, cut to fit the can, is laid directly Cd
top of the fruit.
Paper is much better to put under a
pet than straw. 1t is warmer, thinner
and makes less noise when one walks
over it. A fair carpet can be made fol
a that is not in constant use, by
FASTING several thicknesses of newspa-
per on the floor, over them a layer of
wall paper, and giving it a coat of var
nish. In cold weather l have often
placed newspaper between my bed
quilts, knowing that two thicknesses of
paper are as warm as a quilt.
If it is necessary to step upon a chair,
always lay 4 paper on it; this saves rub
bling the varnish.-Mary johnson in
New York Mail and Express.

ACCORDING to a voluminous report
publis he'd in the Buffalo Echo the North
ern Wyoming lair must have been a great
success this year, The exhibits of cattle
and horses while not extraordinarily large
was very good, but in the matter of agri-
cultural products it was far and away ahead
Of anything ever yet seen in the territory.
Considering the exhibits which could be
made in various counties it is rather re-
markable that so few county fairs are yet
held IN Wyoming. Such gatherings are
always productive of good and as they
gather together in compact form speci-
mems of the county they give
ever the inhabitants a better conception
of their " possessions aud a prouder
confidence in their value.

OUR CONSTITUTION SUPPLE
MENT

The first constitution ever adopted by
the people OF Wyoming will meet the
public eye for the first time through the
agency of a supplement to THE LEADER
which is issued this morning. Att first
glance it looks like a voluminous docu-
ment and it certainly lost zone of this dis
tinctive feature in the labor Of putting it
into type. but when it is compared with
the constitutions recently adopted in the
four newly made states it contains decid
edlY less matter.
With the entire constitution thus
grouped in handy form before them. the
people viii probably find less to criticize
in 1t as a whole than they may have ex-
pected The more they study it the more
apt they are to discover that it is a clean
cut document which fits the situation very
closely.
1t will be well for those who receive
copies of the constitution this morning to
preserve them carefully for future refer
enc as questions concerning certain arti-
cles will constantly arise both before and
alter the election.

A hardy apple tree, loaded with ripe,
luscious fruit, growing from the c~revices
Of a rock, is a curiosity which has at
tracted the attention of visitors to Fair
o park through the Callowhill
street entrance this summer. The tree,
which is very large, shoots up from the
~crevice of the rocks blasted to form the
pool for the pumping at the Paramount
water works.
The apples on the tree are the beauti-
full rosy checked, yellow variety, and
from their quality and size it would APP
pear that there was some rich source of
sustenance, though none is visible from
any point of view, the roots being plain
ly seen clinging to the rocky walls,
shooting in one crevice and out of an
other. Hundreds of small boys try, day
after day, to procure specimens of the
fruit, but the isolated position of the
tree has thus far saved it from their
raids.-PhiladeIphia Times.

The Foot OF Tho Grand Canyon.

/ went to the bottom of the Grand
canyon of tho Colorado last winter and
am one of the few. men who ever at
tempted the descent. l went there to
examine n mine said to exist in the bot
ton Of the canyon. | have beer all
through the Rockies from Montana to
Central America and know what a
chasm is, but the sight of that abyss
took my breath away. From the top to
the bottom it is full 5000 feet. Over a
mile below you can see the river tearing
through the gorge, but not a sound n
be heard, it is so far away. From one
bank to the other it is apparently not
over n quarter of n mile, but as n matter
Of fact it is fully nineteen miles. My
guide told me | would never be able to
reach the bottom, but | was determined
to 20 and | went. 1t was a terrible
climb and it took us eight hours to reach
the bottom. 1t is certainly the most
desolate place in the world. There is no
living thing down there-no insects, rep
tiles o animals of any kind. Every
thing is absolutely dead. The mining
prospect was worthless. Before the sun
was up the next morning we were on
our way out, and it took us until 10
o'clock that night to climb the wall of
the canyon.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

A SPECIAL election will be necessary to
fill the vacancy made by the resignation
of Frank II. Clark as member-elect of the
coming legislature. The vacancy will be
filed at the same time as the constitution
is voted upon. 1t is probable that Domi-
nations for both parties will be made by
their county committees. There seems to
be at least poetic justice in giving the
nomination TO the individual on either
ticket who came closest TO being elected.
