An official of the government, who recently made an investigation of the prison facilities there. comes back to Washing ton with an enthusiastic account of the rapid growth and advancement of Ok lshoma. He says many of the people who were formerly regarded as out laws have reformed, and are now in dustriously at work helping to build up the Territory. He says that the saloons arc closed Sundays and other evidences ef growing civilization are noted. The population of Oklahoma, he says. is now larger than that of South Dakota and two or three other States recently admitted.

ALBANY, N. Y., Jan. 7.-Both branches of the Legislature assembled at II o'clock. The Senate after the usual formalities, proceeded to the election of officers, and those chosen by the Democratic caucus were duly elected. Edwards, the independent, voted with the Democrats. No effort at obstruction was made by the Repub- licans.

 The Assembly was quietly organized and the officers nominated by the Democratic caucus elected.
 Gov. Flower, in his first annual message, congratulated the people of the State upon the fact that for the first time in eight years the Governor is able to address his suggestions to a Legislature in political accord with the Executive.

He also points out the neces- sity for an immediate reapportionmcnt of Congressional districts.

Al Bushart was the engineer in charge of the west bound train, and Joseph Vasconecllas the conductor. Both engines were completely wrecked and both engineers instantly killed. The trains took fire, and both smokers an baggage cars and one chair ear were consumed.

GERRIAN'S RANCH.

GERRLANS RANCH.
A few years ago was working gold
quartz mine in California.
It was a worthless mine, under the
conditions of that time. ! had been
dragged into it by the shifts and needs
Dof California life. Destiny probably
meant to teach me patience and self
possession in difficulty. So destiny thrust
me into bitter bad business of quartz
mining.
If I had had countless dollars of cap
ital to work my mine, or quicksilver for
amalgamation as near and plenty as the
snow on the Sierra Nevada, might have
done well enough.
As it was, got but certain penny
worths of gold to most intolerable
quantity of quartz. The precious metal
was to the brute mineral in the proper
ton of perhaps a hundred pinheads to
the ton. My partners down in San
Francisco wrote to me, "Only find twice
as many pinheads and our fortune is
made" So thought those ardent fellows,
fancying that gold would go up and
labor go downfall presently l would
strike a vein where the mineral would
show yellow threads and yellow dots,
perhaps even yellow knobs, in the crew
ices, instead of empty crannies which
nature had prepared for monetary de-
posits and forgotten to fill.
So thought the fellows in San Fran
cisco. They had been specializing in
beef, breadstuffs, city lots, Rincon
Point, wharf property, mission lands,
Mexican titles, Sacramento boats, pol
itics, Oregon lumber. They had been
burned out, they had been cleaned out,
they had been drowned out. They de-
pended upon me and the quartz mine to
set them up again. SO there was small,
steady stream of money flowing up from
San Francisco from the depleted Golfers
of those sanguine partners, flowing into
our mine and sinking there, together
with my labor and my life.

"a STRANGE CARGO"
What Yarns They Do Fasten on

Under the heading, "a Strange
Cargo" the Glasgow Weekly Herald
of a late date has the following
feline story:
The strangest cargo that ever ar
rived at Honolulu was on the bark
Edward James, from Portland, Ore
gon. 1t consisted of lumber, live
stock, salt, salmon, dried apples, four
bears, and nearly a hundred cats. A
man heard that the Sandwich Isl.
anders were very anxious to have
some cats, and he paid twenty-five
cents apiece to the Portland boys,
who probably stole them. At any
rate, the bark sailed away, and
when ten days out dreadful storm
arose, and the ship was tossed about
at lively rate. In the midst of it
all the bears broke loose, and when
the cattle saw them they beloved
until they were heard above the fury
of the gale. The captain seized a
gun to shoot the bears, to save the
cattle, but when he went below,
where it was pitch dark, there
cleaned in all directions so many
fiery eyes of cattle, bears, and cats,
that he fled in dismay But in the
end a bear was killed, a lot of cats
thrown overheard, and the vessel
was 81 days reaching Honolulu
which should have been sighted in

Lighthouse Knocked Into the Sea


LONDON, Nov. 1S.-A curious acct
dent occurred to-day in Belfast
Tough. Lighthouse No. 2, which
warns vessels from running aground
near the entrance to the Tough, is
built of wood, and is not a very
heavy structure. The steamship
Midway was proceeding on it's way
without paying any attention to the
lighthouse, which it suddenly hit.
Instead of the steamers being wreck
ed the lighthouse was wrecked and
toppled over into the sea. The
lighthouse did not sink, but hoated
on the waves, while the inmates
shouted for help. The crew of the
Midway fastened to lower boat
and rowed to where the lighthouse
was floating. Two of the inmates of
the lighthouse were drowned and
two were rescued.
