South Africa is Booming.

In Bishop Heber's classic missionary
hymn we sing, Where Afric's sunny
fountains, roll down their golden sand
Though not literally true, the symbol is
being verified. Certainly the southeast
ern part of this Dark Continent is rising
from state of dependency into one of
sunshine and prosperity. 1t has a future
which will doubtless astonish the world
more than California or Australia have
done.
About twenty years ago, Mauch,
German traveller. picked up, in the re-
gion of Mangwato, the chief town of the
Betyuana tribe, a few specimens of quartz
containing gold. Showing them to peO
pie in Natal he observed, There will be
found ere long in the interior of Africa
vast quantities of the precious metal"
Some famous ruins were explored by
him, probably old Portuguese fortitica-
tons, called by Rider Haggard solo
mons Mines" but the Matabele tribe
then claiming jurisdiction over the coun-
try would not allow him to
prospect. Gold seekers have not how
to 20 so far to crafty their
wishes. The Transvaal, Swaziland
Zuluand. and even Natal are auriferous
In 1888 the total yield of gold was &c..
250, 900, and in 1889 Johannesburg alone
yielded much more than that sum. The
growth CT johannesburg has been truly
wonderful. Hotels, theatres, churches
and stores have been built, many OF
which, for style, would do credit to
city in England or America.
The impetus given in Natal, in conse-
quence of the gold discoveries, was great
to the merchants. who before were in
state OF depression. Durham, the sea-
port town. bids fair to be second Mel
bourne. There is a great demand for
houses, and in some cases persons were
in search of them for six months before
obtaining them. The railway in Natal
has wrought many changes. At first the
Beers did not take kindly to the idea of
having their nice sheep farms cut up by
this modern invention. but on seeing
that one of their number sold his farm
with its gold mine for 100000 to an
European syndicate, and knowing that
few years since the farm could have been
bought for $500, their views changed.

Blonde Hair and Other.

It was announced little time ago on
high authority that blonde hair was going
out of fashion. The right dye seems to
have been a difficulty, and the difficulty
in some cases seems to have been almost
insurmountable Those whose taste for
blonde beauty is incurably active will
have their prejudiccs so far considered
that mahogany color will be interpOsed
between dirty yellow and the dark brown
or darker brown of the future. There
is blue black, which is almost as I'M
satisfactory as the greeny-yellow. On
the whole, it is wisest to wear natural
hair. And so the market has become a
little upset. We shall not get our chief
supplies hcnceforth from Germany and
Switzerland. The blonde maids of
Deutschland will be allowed to consume
their own crops. Dark beauties are to
have their turn. As result the Chinese
have suddenly developed q new COM

Do men ever fall in love with each other?
Women do. Not long ago young woman
in New Jersey was married to youthful Ia
borer on her fathers farm. Sometime after
ward it was discovered that the husband was
female; the young wife refused, however,
though earnestly entreated by her friends, to
give up her chosen consort. The strangest
part of the discovery was the fact that the
bride knew her husband was a woman before
she was led to the altar

Bears Plentiful in Oregon.

Reports from various mountain SEQ.
tions about this valley indicate that bears
are more numerous this season than for
a long time. Up on the ridges between
Ashland and Wagner creek, and over on
Grizzly Peak bears have been sheep
hunting and berry picking, and up on
Emigrant Creek, on the high ridge be-
tween the two main forks, two fine
beeves belonging to J. M. Tyler have
been 'butchered to make an ursine holt
day." One of them was a COW that would
have dressed 700 pounds, and she had
been killed evidently by whole party
of bears, as the scene of the killing,
under a sheltcring tree where the COW
was sleeping when attacked, showed the
ground to be trampled over by bears feet
which left tracks as numerous as sheep
tracks in camp corral. The stock men
UP that way have been out in force hunt
ing for the bears, and Mr.. Rush and
Others killed one last week-a mealy-
