THE FIGHT NOT ENDED.

Butte, June 9.-Practically matters on
the disputed ground of the yellow Jacket
lode remains the same as before Messrs.
Cobban and Fitschen began war ON the
surface claimants. The property is To-
Gated i'm Park street, east OF Arizona, and
its value is building ground may bc easily
inferred from the determination OF the
surface claimants to hold il for that pur-
pose. The mineral claimants believe II
equally valuable for the ore IL contains
and, holding n receivers receipt for the
claim, are determined to secure possess

Last week they tore down "A small shack
and threw the lumber OF which II
was built into the street. This
has nee rebuilt, but on another part Of
the claim. A shaft house and gallows
frame has been erected on the site OF the
cabin and a man is kept on guard there
continually.
Skidmore ri al, the surface claimants,
announce that they will resist with force,
IL necessary, any farther encroachments
upon their rights. IL Is not probable that
any more physical encounters will take
place as the fight has been transferred to
the courts for arbitration. Pending de-

HAY FEVER.
BY G. A. CUTLER, NJ. D.

Hay fever Is not, "a many suppose,
an incurable disease True, it does not
yield as readily TO treatment as asth-
ma, and Is one of the most stubborn of
the diseases that aitlict the human
family, but it can be conquered by per-
sistent treatment.
The disease is of germinal origin,
and whether these heterogeneous,
which are the exciting cause, are pro-
duced from rag-weed, new mown hay,
heat and vegetable decomposition,
want of ozone in the air, or from the
dozens of other assumed causes, we will
not undertake to say-indeed, it Is
problem that no one, as yet, has salts
factorily answered. The same exciting
cause does not seem to produce the dis
ease in different cases. Patients who
could not pass a load of bay without
causing an aggravated attack, HSdid
expose themselves to any of the other
exciting causes with perfect impunity,
while others when on the waters. from
twenty to fifty miles from shore, had
severe attacks without the slightest
apparent cause.
The treatment must be constitution
al, and it must be thorough. 1t is, in
every sense, a blood disease. The local
application of cocaine Is but palliative
and is dangerous. A cocaine habit is
more to be feared, if possible, than an
opium habit. Bhe destruction of the
mucus membrane of the nasal cavity
by electrolvsis has failed to cure the
disease, and the injection of weak solu
tions of carbolic acid and other power
full antiseptics has given but little re-
lief. The micro. organisms that infest
the mucus membrane may be destroyed
by this treatment, but the blood, which
carries an ample supply, will soon re-
store the loss.
The inhalation of oxygen, especially
in a heated form, is the best remedy
yet discovered, but even this, in obsti-
nate cases, will fail unless backed by
other antiseptic treatment. The or
ganisms are most tenacious of life, and
the blood should he reached by the aid
of the stomach as well as by the lungs
The patient himself can aid materially
in accomplishing a cure. / notice one

tient can do to help himself. This is

pelSin's Toy Railway.

About two years ago they presented
n complete miniature railway TO the
Emperor through Ii Hung Chang, and
the line. which is about three miles
long, Is laid down within the imperial
city.
The Young Emperor is very much in-
terested in its workings and spends a
great deal of his time in riding to and
fro in the beautifully appointed little
carriages.
He was greatly struck with the toy
railway, and its influence upon the re-
cent DEGREES has been very consider
able. The old reactionary party
among his advisers were adverse to the
miniature line being laid down within
the precincts of the sacred city. and it
was very near being returned to the
donors.
But the government was afraid lest
1t should give offense to the French.

but the high authorities would not al
low any foreigners to have hand in
laying down or working the model rail
way.
The resuk was when they started
the little engine they could not stop it,
and great Consideration was occasioned
to the occupants in the palace by their
inability to control the strange contriv-
ance of the FOREIGNERS which dashed
along the line till it was pulled up by
coming in contact with a mound of

OF the population of western cities, a
large proportion are country-born and
bred, and for such the chestnut-vender
is a reminder of boyhood's days, and is
on that account very largely patron
lied. Chestnuts are chestnuts, to
Judge from the price demanded for a
handful, and they are, not infrequent
ly, "chestnuts" in the sense of being
decidedly ancient and musty.
The "old clio man" is known to all.
He purchases cast-off garments, which
when renovated and rejuvenated, so
far as the art of the repairer extends,
find ready sale and yield large
profits.
OF the same family is the hat buyer.
He canvasses the entire city in search
of abandoned head-gear which tie art
of the halter can make presentable once
more. While no residence escapes him,
his great harvest of tiles" Is secured
in the business section. Here he may
be seen at all hours. He visits every
Office, except those in buildings where
merchants of his class are not admitted.

Hanhy Man TO Have Around.

Thackeray answered the accusation
that Dumas did not write all his own
works by asking
Does not the chief cook have aides

Then-it is in one of the most de-
ligh;ful passages of the always delight

that he himself would like compe-
tent, respectable and rapid clerk, to
whom he might say:
Mr.. Jones, if YOU please the arch

the transition is not a difficult one In
deed the two professions" are often
united in the same person, much as an
attorney at law" is likewise "coun-
selor" and solicitor. The rag
picker is one of the most familiar of
street figures.
"He"-using the word in the broad
est senA-is as likely as not to he n
woman, and not unfrequently a small
girl, staggering under a burden she
seems in no wise able to carry. Not
even in this most humble of all callings
has the boosted "lord of creation" n
monopoly, but is obliged to divide the
business with his weaker but more tenn
perate and industrious sister.
The term "rag picker" is generic
one, and includes the collecting of any
and all things that his patron and pro-
moter, the junk-dealer, will buy.
From cutters and alleys he picks pa
per, pieces of cloth, old shoes, tin cans,
bits of metal and fragments of coal.
The stroller and observer will gener-
ally see him poking in old barrels and
garbage boxes. He is often accom-
panied by boy or girl to assist in car

appears insignificant to the uninitiated,
yet the profits are very large. and but
for the habit of drinking, which seems
almost universal with the class, the
buyers of discarded chdpeauT might
become capitalists.
In front of beer saloons, especially
during the warm months, large
number of seemingly empty barrels
and kegs may be seen. Although the
proprietor of the place has removed all
of the contents of use to him, still a
little of the amber-colored fiuid-the
dregs in fact-remain. In any large
city men may be seen going from saloon
to saloon with large tin cans, into
which they empty the stale quart or
two of beer left in each keg by he
landlord. The observer of this rather
familiar street scene may suppose that
this novel "rusher of the GROWER" is
collecting material for a spree of his
own. This may sometimes be
the case, but many-perhaps a
majority of men so employed-are
in no sense drunkards, but are earn
ing a livelihood for themselves and
families. Most of the beer thus
CLEANED" from the sewers, finds its
way to the lowest saloons, where it Is
purchased for about . cents gallon.
1t is placed in kegs, charged with car
bonic acid gas, and retailed at about
half the price of genuine fresh beer.

When asked what he dined on the day
previous, he will say, "Corned beef and
cabbage" Fried steak and onions, or
some such diet. While this matter of
diet applies to hay fever, it applies
with much greater force to asthma.
Exposure TO night air. and especially
in the matter of cover at night in a
chapgeable climate like ours. should be
of the utmost concern to both hay fever
and asthmatic patients. While a change
of climate will benefit majority of pa
tients, it will not do SO in all cases. and
it is a very difficult matter to tell pa
tients where TO go. opart of this con-
tinent seems entirely exempt. L have

Gently nearly lost a fiancee A few
nights ago he called on the young lady
and entered the parlor. There was no
light in the hall or in the room. In a
short time he heard his girl coming
down the steps. He stepped out into
the hall, and IA she reached the bot
tom of the stairs he inclosed her in
his arms and imprinted long, linger-
kiss upon her ruby lips. Releasing
her. he struck a match and lit the gas,
then, turning to snatch another kiss,
he was Mortified to see before him the
black cook. He gave her dollar not
to say anything, but the story was too
good to keep and she told it. 1t passed
from one person to another until it was
known to all his friends, and his life is
anything but happy one, particularly
as the lady of his choice is wavering
in her original intention of marrying
him.

In city, especially one that has
passed beyond the "overgrown village"
state, vast number of curious trades
and callings are pursued. OF these an
astonishing number are carried on in
the public streets. In cities of the
magnitude of Chicago, thousands of
people have no other place of business
than the sidewalks and curbstones,
where they not only earn livelihood
but in numerous instances amass for
tunes.
A stroll down busy thoroughfare on
pleasant afternoon or evening reveals,
to one who has his eyes open, no end of

is at once told to whistle. The music
must be kept up as long as the work lasts,
and it Is evident that the baker knows
what he is about.
