FRANCES CHAMPAGNE,

Tho Yield of 1891 Valued at $25,O0O..
OOO--Care in Treating the Vintage.
The harvesting of the champagne
vintage takes place in the latter part Of
October and the first weeks in Novem'
Der, and during that period the whole
district Of Champagne becomes as busy
as bee hive. About fifteen thousand
hectares are covered with vines. The
yield is estimated at $25, 100000. 1t is
difficult for. anybody who has not seen
it to appreciate the extreme care taken
with the champagne vintage. The
grapes are plucked one by one, are Sc
lected according to their ripeness and
often they have to be cleaned before
they are put into the presses. There
are two things about champagne that
are not generally known. The wine is
not the product of white grapes. Three
fourths of the champagne vines produce
black grapes only, and the almost white
color of the wine is obtained through
the perfection Of the presses. Again,
while in Bordelais and in Bourgogne
each crop of grapes has it's own indi'
viduality and admits of no mixing, it is
quite the contrary in Champagne.
There they mix several crops, each one
of which contributes it's own peculiar
quality to the wine.
The annual production of champagne
wines is abundantly sufficient for the
consumption of champagne in the whole
world, despite what has been said to
the contrary. It amounts to 1925, 600
gallons. The export of champagne wine,
which in lS44~45 reached only 6,500,0oo
bottles, in 1soO-91 was 25,00o,O00. The
greatest consumption is in England and
the United States; then come Germany,
Russia and Belgium.

q VOLCANIC ISLAND.
Mo,ico Has One, the Result of tho Earth
quake Last summer.

Mos,tco Has One, the Result of the Earth
quake Last Summer.
!, A party which has just returned from
the head of the gulf of California, says
the Chicago Globe, brings the news
Of the formation of volcanic island
during the earthquake of last summer.
At point near the middle of the gulf,
where it has always been considered
the deepest, there is now an island that
has for it's center an active Volcano,
spouting fire, ashes and mud. The island
ter and the cone Of the volcano is but a
few feet above the surface of the island.
An attempt was made to land upon the
new island by the party, but they found
that it was simply a crust and wherever
they would place foot the crust would
break through and clouds OF steam
would rise from the orifce. The island
is of undoubted volcanic origin and the
hole is about fifty feet in diameter
while the cone itself covers nearly the
whole of it. When they went up they
noticed furious boiling at the place,
but there was no appearance OF an
island or a volcano. Upon their return
thew saw the island as it had formed,
and they believe that it is constantly
growing,
They made sounding around the
island and they found that where there
had formerly been no bottom to the gulf
as far as the usual means of measure
mcnt is concerned, now they could find
bottom within ten feet of the surface
for mile in any direction of the island.
1t has the appearance of a ridge and
the men think that the center of the
gulf has been forced up by some in
ternal pressure like the folds Of cloth.

The ore That Two Miners Could Get Out
in One Day.
Col. Hart, manager of the Cornu-
copia mine, of Neihart, told an inter-
esting little story the other evening, says
the Salt Lake Herald. Here it is: "One
of the principal owners of the Mollie
Gibson mine, at Aspen, Col, had a
daughter who was married a few years
ago Shortly after her return from
her wedding trip she went to her father
and told him she wanted house The
old gentleman, after few moments
deliberation, said: My girl, I'll tell
you what I'll do; will give you one
days work of any two men in the mine
you may select The bride thought
this was rather slim allowance from
one who could we'll afford to be gen
erous, and was not slow to express the
disappointment which she felt. The
young lady was very popular with the
miners, and when they heard OF the
proposition which their chief had made
to his daughter they held a meeting
and selected the two best worknen
from among their number. These two
worthless presented themselves before
the young lady, and after vast amount
Of preliminary bowling and scraping

choose us two fellers you'll never be
sorry for it. Well git an everlastin'

REPORTERS FADS.

Ono Who Has Mania for Collecting
CHASTITY Mementoes.
In an article on Men with Fads''
Casseu's Saturday Journal says: THE
most unique collection Of autographs
probably is that which is owned by a
journalist who has treasured up a num-
Der of interesting mementoes OF public
events. Thus, when leading orator
of the day addresses a huge meeting
and the newspapers require verbatim
reports, it is customary to send note
to the orator to ask how long he intends
to speak, and the answer is scrubbed:
AN hour or Fifty minutes as the case
may be- The bulk of these notes fur
nish a veritable museum of good inten-
lions which have not been fulfilled,
for few public men can resist the
temptation of exceeding their own self
imposed time allowance. Another jour-
nalist stores up menus of the different
banquets he attends, and a third pre-
serves the tickets of invitation also. A
well-known 'penny-a-liner,' who IN his
time has had q strange and Intimate
connection with the unraveling of Lon.
don mysteries, got together truly hor'
rible collection of odds and ends which
derived their interest from their asso-
citation with notorious criminal cases.
These objects possessed such CHASTITY
significance that one day the liner, in
order TO be rid of their depressing in
fluence, for each relic had a painful
story attached to it's acquisition, deter
,niuedly threw them in the fire, and
since that day he has never INDUCED a

A Peculiar Fish.

A remarkable fish was recently cap
tured off the Ardglais coast, County
Down, Ireland. According to Land and
Water sit was three-quarters Of a
pound in weight and had head similar
to that of pike. From the gills to the
tail on each side there was bright blue
band; the tops Of the tail fins were also
q bright blue, and around the head and
shoulders there was network Of deep
blue lines, which gave the fish a very
comical, unnatural aspect. !" Il is un-
known to the fishermen of that section.

Read This.

For the benefit of some who, perhaps,
do not understand the law, we give the
following sections from the Revised
Statutes of Idaho. Almost any day
men, boys, girls and Cinnamon China
men are not considered men) may be
seen in the town of DeLamar and ad-
Jacent to it robbing Jordan creek of
trout contrary to the statutes, and we
would mildly suggest to the officers,
who are always (?) anxious to see the
law enforced, that here is a fine chance
to put few ducats in their own pockets
and at the same time put stop to a
pernieious habit that is rapidly denud-
ing our mountain streams of trout. The
law, which should be enforced reads as
follows:
Sec. 7191. The only lawful way that
fish can be taken in any of the streams of
this State is by fishing tackle, consisting
of rod or pole, line and hook.
Sec. 1892. Said hook must not be
baited with any drug or substance
poisonous to any kind offish.
Sec. 7193. 1t is unlawful for any per-
son in this State to make any dams, or
use any nets, seines, fish-traps, or any
similar device or means for catching
fish or to use any drug, giant powder,
or other explosive pounds, intend
ing to catch, kill or destroy any species
of fish; Provided, That no person is
prohibited by this chapter from the
catching of salmon, salmon trout, or
sturgeon with seine or spear.
Sec. 7194. Every person, company or
corporation, guilty of violating either
of the three preceding sections is guilty
of misdemeanor, and is punishable by
fine not less than twenty-five nor more
than one hundred dollars for each
ofense committed.
Sec. 7195. One-half of all fines col
lected under this chapter must be paid
into the county treasury for the benefit
of the common schools of the county
wherein the offense was committed,
and one-half to the person informing
the nearest magistrate that such offense
has been committed.

The nomination of B. Byron Lower,
by the Republicans, for the position of
State Supt., of Public instruction, places
Owyhee Co., on the State ticket and
demonstrates that our delegates at Mos
COW did not become sufficiently excited
to forget where they live. Mr.. Lower
is young man of considerable exper-
ence as an instructor and, if elected,
will doubtless fill the position with
credit to himself and satisfaction to bis
constituents.

The Republicans made clean sweep
at Moscow, of the present state officials.
Against Treasurer Coffin no breath OF
suspicion has ever been raised, but,
like poor dog Tray, he was caught in
bad company and went down with the
general wreck. A new deal can do no
harm and it is to be hoped that the
lesson taught will be needed by the
next set of officials and that they may
be able to read the writing on the wall.
The voters can make another change
and will if it becomes necessary.

We lost our most distinguished swell
of the past social season. He has gone
to Europe. AS a swell he was a great
success. but he had a narrow escape
from closing his Washington career
with a tragedy. His name was De-
Lamar, a Belgian, who came to America
wears ago to seek his fortune and found
il in the silver mines of Idaho Having
become acouainted with Russell Harri-
son. the presidenrs son, he took kindly
TO youpe Harrison's suggestion that he
come down to Washington to enjoy
the winter. Mr.. DeLamar was rich,
young. tore-ably good looking, fond of
display. an ACCOMPLISHED horseman, a
devoted beau.
But finally Mr.. DeLamar ran afoul of
another social swell, none other than
the attache of one of the foreign lega-
tions. There was some rivalry about
young woman's hand at german or
some dispute at the dinner table. Just
what it was no one appears to know.
But at any rate Mr.. DeLamar's quarrel
with one attache led him into the
blunder of denouncing the whole tribe
of attaches. Permitting himself to be
interviewed by the correspondent of a
society paper, the swell Young man
from the Silver State uttered publicly
and pointedly his opinion that the lega-
ton attaches in Washington were
pack of adyenturers, dead beats, and
poverty stricken pretenders. He added
that while the aforesaid attaches arro-
GATED to themselves all the good birth
and breeding in Washington society,
they were as a matter of fact q scurvy
SET. low born and illv reared in humble
conditions of life from which they were
rescued by accident. There was more
truth than poetry in all this, and the
tbrusts were felt. They struck the
spot.
Within two davs after the appearance
of this interview Mr.. DeLamar was
called npon by at least dozen irate
attaches who desired either explana-
ton or satisfaction. The young Idaho
silver miner had no desire to figure in
duel, though he was not entirely averse
to a fight of some sort or other. His
western training had fitted him for
scrapping match, with or without shoot
ing irons. as might be desired. De-
Lamar's friends told him be had better
disavow the interview, and intimated |
that if he didn't the whole diplomatic
corps would take up the cudgels against
him, and that would cook his social
goose in this town, DeLamar replied
that he could take care of himself, in |
society or elsewhere, and that at any
rate he had slipped about all the sweets
of social triumph that were to be had
in Waebinoton and had ooncluded tn
