The Hottest Place on Earth,

There are many very warm spots on

ture goes, absolutely without a rival.
For forty consecutive days In July and
August, last year, which was not an ex-
ceplional season. the thermometer was
known not TO fall lower than 1000 Fab
rcuhelt, night or day, and often ran up
as high rs 1880 In the afternoon. Nature,
ss If to make the spot as inIolerabie TO
human beings as poesIb e, has baDished
al water from the rocks OF the locality
at least none has ever been procured by
digging to depths of nearly 5u0 feet, aud
TIE numerous pits or dry wells In the
neie hbcrhocd show how thoroughly the
upper stratum has been tapped. ln spite
of these apparently insuperable otsta-
cles, however, mankind has contrived to
flourish aud multiply in this region to an
amazing extent, and tho necessary fresh
drinking water (Which the land has
refused to yield) is obtained from the
boi,om Of the Gulf Of Persla, where, at a
distance of mpre than u mile from the
shore, innumerable copious springs
burst forth.

Chained for Fifty Years.

OF a maniac, who has Just died rear
Greensboro. N. c., a despatch from
there says: He was 70 years old, and for
so years he had been chained 10 the floor
OF the house 10 witch he died. He was
mons,rosity, his head resembling a
lions rore than that Of . human being.
Up to his 20th year he was regarded as
harmless, but he suddenly developed a
vicious disposition and would attack
any one who injured near him. He
broke bis chain 90 years ago and was at
large for day or two. He was recap
tured with difficulty and only after he
had been severely wounded.

Whitworth Female College.
A THOROUGHLY EQIPPED AND PROGRESSIVE
INSTITUTION.

OF the many educational institu-
tons of the country, none can Just.
~ claim higher place in the public
esteem than the celebrated Whit
worth College at BroOkhaven. It
ranks fourth in size among the fe-
male colleges of the Union, and in
the extent of it's curriculum, thor
OughneSs OF training, moral infuen-
ces, healthfulness of location, firm
and caaeful discipline, is surpassed
BY none. 1t is a thoroughly pro
gressive institution, which keeps
fully abreast with the times, and
the latest and most approved meth
DDS are adopted in every depart
ment, whether of science, music or
art.
The session of 1899 80, was one
of the most successful and satisfac-
tory in the history of the college,
and no pains or expense will be
spared by the management to make
the session of 1890 '91 equal to
or even surpass any former record.
The best teaching talent has been
engaged that money can procure.
The Conservatory of Music and Art,
the finest in the South, will be kept
fully upto its present high standard.
Add to this the fact that the board
ing department is perfect in its ar
rangement and Accommodations and
under the immediate supervision of
the President and bis family, and
there is nothing to be desired.
Before any of our readers decide
to send their daughters elsewhere,
We advise them to write for a cat
alOgue and acquaint themselves
With the superior advantages of
Whitworth. See advertisement in

The New Saltfse.

A recent issue of The Pennington
Register, of Oregon, contains letter
from Andrew Saltise, the head of the
Occur d'Alene Indians, asking the saloon
men not to sell his people liquor. He
says if any of them are found drunk in
town he would like to have the CITY
marshals arrest them and send word to
him, and he will go and get them and
put them in his jail. He also talks to
the county clerk about estrays, and saws
his people lose many horses. He closes
by saying: II want to be at peace with
all the whites, and would like to have
the whites use my people as they use one
another" It is but few years since
Saltise rode at the head of the Occur
d'Alene warriors and was savage chief
bent on destroying the whites. Now he
rides around the country taking a ia
therly interest in his tribe and KEEPING
them straight. He is thrifty and well
to do, and rides into town in comfort-
able carriage behind good pair Of
horses.

The Goldfish Banks.

Wide publicity has been given lately
to the reported discovery by the United
States fish commissioner steamer Alba
tross of the extensive codfishing banks
off San Diego The journals of the
southern coast towns have been much
impressed with the Importance Of the
discovery, and have 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 announcements. AS far as 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 moro 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 near Cape Lookout, on the
upper coast, will prove of value is con-
sidered very likely, for there are many
of the surroundings that fishermen con-
slider most favorable to the cod.-San
Francisco Bulletin.

Fruit Growing Out of the Rocks,

A hardy apple tree, loaded with ripe,
luscious fruit, growing from the crevices
OF a rock, is a curiosity which has at
tracted the attention of visitors to Fair
mount 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 Fairmount
water works.
The apples on the tree are the beauti-
full rosy checked, yellow variety, and
from their quality and size it would ap-
pear that there was some rich source of
sustenance, though none is visible from
any point of view, the roots being plain
" 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.-Philade]phia Times.

The "LOst Cabin"

On Aug. 4, 1886, Charles E. Burnes
and Nathan Hubbard left Linkville, Ore,
on a prospecting tour to find the s.Lost
Cabin" in the mountains. For years the
Lost Cabin has been one of the tradi-
tions of that section, and many search
has been made for it and the gold that is
supposed to be waiting for the finder.
Nothing was again heard of the two
men until a few weeks ago, when a cat
tie he1der found their camp and their
skeletons in dense wilderness near Dia-
mond lake, fifty miles from Fort Kla-
math. The skeletons were found near
together, wrapped in their blankets and
clothed. Their guns stood against tree
near by. A small sum of money was in
one Of the mems pockets, and a watch,
so that it seemed certain that they had
not been murdered and robbed. A diary
and postal card addressed to Burnes'
mother served to identify them. The
diary was carried to Aug. 81, 1886, so
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.
