Tho Power Of Gold.

The power of gold is phenomenal.
The discovery OF gold in California
gave population and new life to the
Pacific cost. Such discovery in Aus
tralia populated continent and in
South Africa is making the Transvaal
'predominantly English. And now ad-
vices from Demarara represent that it
was only the discovery Of gold which
prevented an insurrection. The COM
parative failure OF the sugar-cane in
dustry left the negroes without work.
The East Indian coolies had all
the places on the sugar estates.
The negroes were on the point
of rising against the government
when ga few exploring gold-seekers
found gold along the sides OF one OF
the upper rivers. The gold fever set
in, and it carried into the interior
so many of the idle. strong and reck-
less fellows that great public danger
was averted, and the emigrants
have speedily made and are now spend
ing nice competencies."

But the German Could Not Match
the Russians Big Story.
A German was Boosting in the pres
ence OF some russians about the obe-
dience and discipline OF the German
army, citing numerous incidents from
the war between France and Germany,
says Texas Siftings.
Gentlemen" replied one Of the Rus
SLAMS, ''what you say about the disci-
pline in the German army amounts to
nothing ut all when compared with
that which occurs continually in tho
Russian army. But 1 will merely re-
cite one instance of what occurred at
tho beginning Of the reign OF the
czar Nicholas, when the discipline Of
the Russian army was comparatively
lax. At that time, before the tele-
graph was discovered, the Russians
used signal stations, which were few
miles apart The soldier made q sig-
NAL which was repeated by the soldier
at the next station, and thus the news
was conveyed thousands OF miles.
Zone day soldier at station near
St. Petersburg did not see the signal
in time. and dreading the punishment
that awaited him for negligence, de-
liberately hung himself on the signal
tower. The soldier at the next sta
tion mistook this for a signal, SO he
deliberately but promptly hung him
| self also. In consequence OF this dis
cipline which prevails in the Russian
army, next day it was discovered tn at
all the soldiers at the signal towers
from ST. Petersburg to Warsaw had
hung themselves on their signal
towers. or course a mach stricter dis
cipline prevails at present. and"
THAT will do" replied the German,
II give it up"

winter approached he resorted to Four
Mile Creek; where he dug hole in the
oank and constructed cot OF straw
and such other materials as he could
gather and spent his nights there.
During the continued rainy spell his
