A Wonderful Electrical Plant.

India, the land of poisonous serpents, immense jungles, fabulous wealth, fevers, cholera and mysticism, has again come to the front through the recent discovery of a strange plant with magnetic powers equal to Brush dynamo To attempt to pull a leaf from this marvellous plant is to invite an electric shock equal to that pro- duced by an induction coil. If com pass be held within six meters of this lightning charged vegetable the needle acts as strangely as if it were being held above the true magnetic pole. Its electrical qualities, however, do not cause more amazement than the won- derful variation of its magnetic pow CTS, which are most manifest at g o'clock in the afternoon, gradually diminishing until at midnight or be- tween midnight and 2 a. m., when it can hardly be noticed.
 Day after day these wonderful changes take place, the plant gradu- ally losing its magnetism as the dark ness becomes more intense only % have the current renewed with seeming in- creased vigor as the sun mounts the tropical skies. A thunder storm aug ments its peculiar qualities a dozen fold and, even though sheltered, it drops its Leaves and branches as if in the last sonvulsions of death.,, Birds and inoects shun the plant as do the natives rf Java the deadly upas tree. One would naturally suppose that the plant would be found growing in re- zion abounding in magnetic metals; the contrary Is the case. There is neither iron, cobalt nor nickel found in the home of the wonderful magnetic plant.-St. Louis Republic.

An African Superstition.

In the country at the back of Luko- lela there are some powerful but peaceable tribes, at the head of whom is a chief who has rather a unique SUI. perstition, which $ that he must not see the river Congo. He is now an old man, close on to 70 years; but neither himself nor his father before him has ever seen the river. He has the impression that the day he sees the river will decide the day of his funer- al. He will go down within a few miles of it, but never runs the slight est risk of catching a glimpse. Among these people there IS a custom that a big chief in a district, on having proved to the satisfaction of the aS- sembled chiefs that he is the wealth jest, and, physically speaking, the strongest, is invested with the order of the Tall Hat. This resembles very much the stovepipo hat of civilized life, only with the brim at the top, and is made of plaited fiber.-Herbert Ward i'll New York Ledger.

The Bride Rides n Mule.

A marriage celebration in Algeria ii an interesting relic of ancient customs The bridegroom goes to bring a bride, and the guests assembled outside the house will wait for his coming Soon the sound of pipe is heard coming from the summit of some neighboring hill, and the marriage procession approaches the bridegroom's house.
 The pipers always come first in the procession, then the bride untitled up in veil, riding mule led by her lover Then comes bevy of gorgeoUsly dressed damsels, sparkling with silver orna. ments, after which the friends of the bride follow.
 The procession stops in front of ths bridegrooms house, and the girls friends line both sides of the pathway. The pipers march off on one side, while the bridegroom lifts the girl from the mule and holds her in his arms. The girIs friends thereupon throw earth at the bridegroom when he hurries forward and carries her over the threshold of his house.

 Miners.
Miners.
HERMOsA.

The Prince mine in Peck district, sold once for 53O,O00 or 54000O, produced lot of silver, ''pinched" and was given up as "dead," Not long since says the Pres 0ott Courier, miner named $. c. Mott thought:he would prospect the "Little Prince" as far as Sl00 he had on deposit with Ed L. Gobin would go. A man who had the reputation of being able to "see into the ground" told him he would be fool to try it. Mott was not afraid of becoming q fool, so he put in a shot and it exposed small vein of silver orc, worth hundreds of dollars per ton. More work developed more ore; the "streak" has kept growing from that day to this, and is now about eighteen inches and as rich as ever.
 O.W. Stunt, just from Hassayampa dis trict, tells us, says the Prescott Courier, that himself and partners recently found an old mine which they have named the Aztec; that the ore mills from S20 to SJ2, gold; concentrates carry Sl0 more in gold, SI0 dollars m silver and about 5per cent part of the old cut, in which they found stone hammers and ether tools; also charcoal. The cut, they think, is quite long. They work the ore in stamp mill. As this ancient mine is but about 12 miles south of Prescott, several peo- pie talk of going to it and seeing with nineteenth-century eyes how prehistoric miners dug the precious ore.

4 Sad Accident.
MINING TowN OF LEROY Bitterwell Mountains,
 Tnlr Sfb 1900

Bitterwell Mountains, Q
 July 9th, 1890.
 Your reporter on reaching this camp learned of the very sad accident of one of the miners, Trinidad Sanches, who had a contract to sink on the Vekol just above the Com bination shaft. They had just completed the 200 feet of contract, and were about to drift to connect.the two tunnels, when Sanchss finding that one of tho holes had not exploded started to drill to the powder. But one tap too many on the head of the drill and an ex- plosion followed which mutilated Salches almost beyond recognition, throwing him up the shaft some distance and causing him to fall on hls comrades who were working with him at the bot tom of tho shaft. Sapches being direct ly over the charge received tho who!e force of it, and to this Is attributed why the other two escaped with slight bruises. The dead man leaves wife and two children and was well liked, be- ng good man ard good miuer.
