COLUMBUS WELCOMED BY
A WOMAN.

Mr.. W. Il. Curtis, director ol
the Bureau of American Republics
and chief of the Latin American
Department Of the Worlds Colum-
bian Exposition, delivered an ad-
dress before the Pinto Club of
Washington, of which Senator
Palmer is president, on the family
Of Columbus. Previous to the
address proper Mr.. Curtis related
an interesting incident. He said
that as woman Isabella) had
sent HIM from the old World, so a
woman gave HIM his first view OF
the new. This woman had never
received any honor or notice in
history, art or song, but that In
the future that would not be the
case. She was the wife of fisher
man 1t was the custom on the
island near which Columbus landed
for the women, mostly wives OF
fishermen, to go down to the beach
when their husbands were out after
dark, and waving torches guide
them safe to shore. On the night
of the day before land was seen,
Columbus, pacing the deck of the
Santa Maria, saw light ahead.
1t was not fixed, like that OF star;
it moved as if waving direction to
some unseen one, and the great
discovsrer knew, as he had never
known before, that his patient
search and urfaltering trust were
to be rewarded.
Mr.. Albert Bierstadt, the great
artist, is now putting on canvas
representation of that scene, which
will illustrate to future generations
the welcome of Columbus to the
new land by the wife of fisher
man.

Attention has lately been called
to a nugget of native silver weigh
ing 606a ozs. troy, one Of sixty
that have been found at the Green
wood group of mines, in the State
of Michoacan. Mexico. The other
nuggets weighed from l to 35 lbs.
each. The large nugget is entirely
worn except in cavities, where some
Of the crystals are rounded and the
form is still visible. 1t is almost
pure silver, scarcely trace OF any
gsngue rock being discernltle.
This specimen was found on the
surface, and in its original state 1t
is SAID to have weighed II pouhds
more. 1t is one of the most
remarkable nuggets of silver ever
found. The geological formation
is limestone with outcroppings OF
limonite.

GOLD FOR SNAKE BITES,
TOO.

An antidote for poisonous snake
bites Is reported as the latest dis
covery of medical science. This
will be good news to the Prohibi-
ZIONIST when they remember that
as much hard liquor as q man
could possibly drink has heretofore
been regarded as the only hope
for human being into whose sys-
tenn the poison from the reptiles
fangs had been injected. The
discovery is credited to Albert
Calmette, surgeon In the French
Navy and director in the Pasteur
Institute at Saigon. Experiments
with the substance which he re-
CARDS as an antidote for snake
poisoning have been made upon
patients bitten by the deadly nsjas
snakes, which, 1t is asserted, kill
10000 persons every year, and it is
said the antidots has proved en-
tireiy effective. The autidots is 9

Rev. Owen Watkins has been
prospecting in Mashonaland, South
Africa, in the interest of the Wes-
leyan Missionary Society. In a
recent letter he says he is pre-
sumably the first white man to see
the Mount of Footprints, which he
thus describes: "At last we came
to one large mount of rocks on the
top of the hills. Here are thous-
ands of impressions on the granite
rock. Hundreds of human foot.
steps, thousands Of footprints OF
animals-lions, jackals, wolves and
antelopes. On the top of the
mount the appearance is as if a
crowd of ANIMALS and men had
rushed together in fright. AT
whatever period these footprints
were made, it must have been
before the outer surface of the
rock had hardened. The distance
from where the footprints begin
to where they culminate on the
mount is 200 yards.

5000 shares Of stock in the Santa
Fe Copper Company, aid now the
San Francisco Chronicle com rs to

Experience is good teacher,

fession. aud has been digging aud
delving for gold in New Mex 9,
for some time. Feeling iii IL
health he decided upon paying =
visit to this coast for the purpose
of inhaling the ozone OF San
Francisco bay. So, inclosing $lS6
in greenbacks in legal envelope
which he secreted In his left boot,
with $40 in gold in his panfaloons
pocket, he boarde | the western
bound train at Albuquerque last
Monday morning Everything

the night he pulled of his boots
and threw them under the lower
berth, forgetting all about the fact
that this wallet was lying sDugly
ensconsed in his left boot. But

When Giblin started to gather his
scattered senses, then the geograph-

wealth fitted through his mind

The ticket agent was immediately
summoned and search instituted
for the missing greenbacks. but all
to no purpose as they could not be
found anywhere.
Now, it happened that a young
man named George Mann, who
had been employed at the Golden
Rule Bazaar at Albuquerque for a
month or 80 previously, was travel

the berth beneath Mr.. Giblln's.

Bob Ingersoll is the unwilling
owner of smelling establishment
at Spokane, Washington. He had
to take the plant in satisfaction of
a debt of $4,000, which amount
he loaned the company. Ifreports
are true this Spokane smelter out
fit, manipulated by one Henry
Clifford, has been a bunco game
from the start. Eastern people
bought stock IN it to the amount
of 100000, about 100000 of
which he and his associates are
said to have pocketed. The smell
ter never was operated. Is there
no way possible to stop the opera
tions of such internal swindlers?

Nearly all the principal mines
in the Occur d'Alene have closed
down to await settlement of dis
putes with the railway companies
and min ers' Unions. The railway
oonpauies are charging S2 per ton
more freight on the ore than was
charged one year ago, notwlth-
standing shipments have increased.
A reduction of rates al least to the
old figue is demanded. The mine
owners also want wages fixed on
scale where every man is paid for
his skill. They do not ask for
reduction of wages for good miners,
but they are tired Of paying the
wages of skilled miners to poor
workmsn. The mine owners ap-
pear to have the right of the subject.
About 1000 miners are thrown out
of employment by the shutdown.
