An evil which threatens women is the
bad literature of the day. Ninety-nine
novels out of hundred are injurious. A
woman should never read a fictitious
story which misrepresents life; she
should beware of the sensational book
and any book that influences the mind
by its passion Obscene pictures which
are passing through our postoffices every
day should be mathematical in every
possible way. | am sometimes tempted
to believe that amateur photography is a
curse.

The IiIlna woman and Her oapa.,.

a blind woman, giving her name as

Snow in Chicago.

A Chicago man came to the city the
other day, and he began to tell his New
York acquaintance what big and
bustling and prosperous place was the
metropolis of Illinois. Everything was
on a gigantic scale there, he said, even
the evil odors. The bacteria in the
water were ma1nmoths beside the prod
uct of the effete Croton. Chicago's
buildings were taller, her elevators were
huger, her private residences were more
magnificent, her parks were far and
away beyond anything New York could
show. Even nature was proud of Chi
cago, and there she gave the most nota-
BILE demonstrations of her power. The
winds blew stronger, the rain and snow
fell deeper than they ever did on Man

Silver in Volcanic Ashes.

The existence of silver in volcanic
ashes is a rare occurrence. Only in two
cases have argendferous ashes been met
with. The sample was obtained during
an eruption Of Cotopaxi in July, 1885, in
the ashes of which Mr.. j. W. Malet
proved the existence of one part of sill
yer in So, 900 parts Of ashes. In the fol-
lowing year the same investigator was
able to add second instance. In Janu-
airy, 1886, a violent eruption of Tun-
guragua. in the Andes of Ecuador, be-
tween fifty and ffty-fve miles from
Cotopaxi, took place, the eruption con-
inuing at longer or shorter intervals up
to November of the same year. The
ashes thrown by this volcano, which
had been at rest for over a century,
contained silver to the extent of one
part in los, 200 parts Of ashes. This ap-
pears, at first sight, TO be only very
small percentage of the metal; but when
it is considered what enormous quaint
ties of ashes are erupted, and what a
vast extent of area they cover after an
eruption, the quantity of silver thrown
up with them must be considerable

John A. Suffer was born in Baden in
1893 of Swiss parents, and was proud Of
his connection with the only republic Of
consequence in Europe. He was a warm
admirer of the United States, and some
of his friends had persuaded him to come
across the Atlantic. He first went to a
friend In Indiana with whom he staid
awhile, helping to clear land, but it was
business that he was not accustomed to.
So he made his way to st. Louis and in.
vested what means he had in merchan-
disc, and went out as New Mexican
trader to Santa Fe. Having been unsuc-
cessful at Santa Fe he returned to st.
Louis, Joined a party of trappers, went
to the Rocky mountains, and found his
way down the Columbia river to Fort
Vancouver. There he formed plans for
trying to get down to the coast of Cali
fornia to establish colony.
He took a vessel that went to the
Sandwich islands, and there communi-
Gated his plans to people who assisted
him. But as there was no vessel going
direct from the Sandwich Islands to Cal
ifornia, he had to take a Russian vessel
by way of Sitka. He got such credit
and help as he could in the Sandwich
islands and induced five or six natives to
accompany him to start the contem-
plated colony. He expected to send to
Europe and the United States for his
colonists. When he came to the coast of
California, in 1870, he had an interview
with the governor, Alvarado, and OBJ
tanned permission to explore the coun-
try and find place for his colony. He
came to the bay of San Francisco, pro-
cured small boat and explored the
largest river he could find, and selected
the site where the city of Sacramento
now stands.-Gen. Bidwell in Century.
