Mrs. Millions Ride.

When Mrs. Million goes to ride she travels
forth in state,
Her horses full Of fire and pride, go pranc-

But all the beauties of the day she views
with languid eye,
Her flesh in weakness wastes away, her
voice is but IL sigh.
For Mrs. Million is in an advanced stage
of catarrh, and all the luxuries that wealth
can buy fail to give her comfort. She en-

all her riches for that young woman's pure
breath and blooming health. Now, it some

Killing Heat of the Section OF Country
Made Famous by tho New Lake.
Salton has been one of the largest
salt works on the Pacific coast All the
proprictors had to do was to scrapc the
salt from the surface of the soil and
clean 1T. Few white men could do the
work, as the temperature was some
times as high as 125 degrees in the
shade and las degrees in the sun. Says
n man who has been there: eff one
makes the least cxertion pcrspiration
pours from him like water. You cross
the room and your clothing will be
wringing wet; yet in ten minutes all
this water has cvaporated. To keep
yourself alive You are forced to drink
water by the gallon. If you have no
water, your tongue swclls, you suffer
torments of the damned, and if water
doesn't reach you in twelve or four
teen hours you will perish miscrably.
The Indians can stand the heat much
longer without water. The custom is
to keep n small pebble in the mouth
and only take an occasional swallow of
water. In this way they will travel
forty or fifty miles day, going OH
dog trot. The Indians are very extrav-
agant, and those who work at the salt
mill, though they earn good wages,
never have anything. They spend all
for canned goods and other costly arti-
cles, as well as on gaudy clothing
for themselves and their squaws. They
are worth seeing on Sunday, when they
array themselves, the women, who have
gone nearly naked during the week,
donning corscts. and the men wear
ing shirts that would make tennis
dude cnyions"

Finally sone of them said: ''There is
no use talking about him; he is Il fool. {"
A policeman, whom they had not OBJ
served, on hearing this placed both men
under arrest, refusing to give any ex-
planation. On reaching the police sta

A New Yorker, who is member of
the American Society of Pychical Re-
search, tells curious story that would
interest his society. While in Mexico
recently he dreamed that in dressing
his pistol dropped from his pocket, fell
butt downward to the floor, turned so
that it leaned against his ankle and cx-
plodcd, SCATTERING his leg. The dream
was so vivid that he awokc with start
and recalled the whole scene. lie was
soon asleep again, however, and by
morning he had nearly forgotten his
vision. When he came to dress he
found himself standing as in his dream,
and as he drew on his trousers his re-
volvcr fell from the hip pocket, struck
butt downward upon the tiled floor,
struck a sunken tile and, turning, leaned
against his ankle with the muzzle
pointing directly at his leg. lie
watched with sort of fascination for
the explosion, but it did not come and
he lives unwounded to tell the tale.
