The goldseekers of both America and
Australia have singular but well
grounded superstition that the discover
ers of hidden treasures are sure to meet
with violent deaths. The original pro-
prietors of between thirty-five and forty
of the most prosperous gold and silver
mines in this country are known to have
come to just such ends. Out Of the
forty or less twelve were shot or stabbed
to death in saloon or other broils, five
committed suicide, three were engulfed
by landslides, five turned murderers or
robbers and were caught and executed
in various ways, one fell into boiling
spring and had the flesh literally stewed
from his bones, while the others have
disappeared and no one knows what ever
became Of them.
George 81. Fryer, once the millionaire
proprietor of the Fryer Hill mine, COM
mitted suicide in Denver after spending
the last nickel between himself and star
vation. The discoverer of the great STAN
dard mine, in California, was caught and
swallowed up in an avalanche; Colonel
Story was killed by Indians; William
Fairweather, of the famous Alder
Gulch mine, died with the "frenzied
horrors" after a continuous two years
debauch. Farrell of Meadow Lake.
died with terrible disease in San
Francisco hospital. The owner of that
great mine, the Homestake, became a
highwayman and was shot while robbing
stage coach. John Homer tried the
same route that Fryer went. ''Dough-
nut Bill, "Ninemile Clarke" "Old Eu-
reka" and many others were killed in
saloons.-St. Louis Republic.

Two days after leaving Port Said,

weather. Looking southwark | OBJ

black cloud rising and coming steadily
toward our steamer. When | looked

steamer several times, as though unde-
eided whether to stay until the storm
passed. At last, just before dark, sew
eral of them alighted on the stayrim of
our main funnel, which was soon one
black mass of birds The rain came
down in torrents, and it was pitiful to
see those frail creatures struggling with
the wind and rain.
Those of them that could not find a
roosting place soon commenced to fall
on deck quite helpless. lpicked up all
those that fell on the bridgedeck and
lodged them in the chartroom. Those
birds that fell on the foredeck were
sheltered in the forecastle by the crew.
The next day came in bright and clear,
with light weste-. oreeze, and all the
swallows tool 4ght just at sunrise. fly

captive birds were soon set free, and
they followed in the wake of the others.
l may say that all the birds we had were
able to fly except one, and it died during
the day. Several dead ones were found
on the decks at daylight. These birds
had beautiful plumage, and l fancy they
looked rather smaller than the swallows

birds had golden brown feathers just

A Statue of Jupiter Olympus.

There is a difference of opinion as to
which of the seven wonders of the world
deserves the title of the 'most magnifi-
cent" and as the majority of these Won
ders have disappeared it is somewhat
difficult to arrive at true decision. The
evidence appears, however, to be pretty
fairly balanced between the gold and
ivory statue of Jupiter Olympus and the
Temple of Diana, at Ephesus. The sta
tue of Jupiter was the work of Phidias,
a celebrated Athenian sculptor; it stood
sixty feet high and it is said to have ex-
hibited marvellous representation OF
the grandeur. state and dignity which
are naturally associated with human
ideas of the awful majesty of the ''king
of gods and men," indeed, according tc
an ancient Greek epigram, it seemed
that either Phidias had ascended to
heaven to sketch Jupiter, or Jupiter had
descended to earth to sit to Phidias.
The god was clad in a robe of solid
gold, garnished with lilies and other
flowers, and four golden lions supported
his footstool. The throne was of cedar,
inlaid with ebony, gold, ivory and pre-
cious stones, with sculptured representa-
tions of the destruction of Niobe's chill
dren, the contests of Hercules and other
exploits of the heroic age; at the back
of the throne were the Hours and the
Graces; at each corner figure of Vic
tory danced upon Sphinx, who was
tearing Theban youth. The almost
superhuman magnifcence of this great
work dazzled all succeeding artists,
threw them into despair and absolutely
set at defiance all competition. Brook

In wet weather it is usual for the
Australian aborigine to carry in the
hand, beneath the kangaroo skin, a
piece of smoldering wood, which COM
pensates the bearer in some sort for the
want of a flannel waistcoat, and en-
ables him to light fire at a moments
notice.
One of our men had also plan or
cold nights of lying down, rolled up in
his furs, upon the ashes of raked out
fire. He explained to my husband that
the advantage of thus going to bed was
twofold, being no less good for warmth
than for concealment, especially when
passing the night in strange place,
where the keeping up of fire after dark
might attract the notice of unfriendly
natives.
Each tribe possesses a territory of its
own, and each family of the tribe has
its own especial tract of land within
that territory. Here man can light
his fire and build his hut without fear
of molestation. 1t is in fact his pater-
nal estate, so that the word ''fire" con-
veys to an Australian the same mean
ing of fatherland or birthplace as the
word "hearth" conveys to a European,
and is used by the aborigines in the
same sense.-Mrs. Millett.

How Sir Gavan Duffy Looked.

Mrs. Carlyle, in her Journal" thus
describes Sir Charles Gavan Duffy as he
looked in 1874 during visit he paid to
1.-THE sage of Chelsea" "Mr. Duffy quite
took my husbands fancy. and mine also
to a certain extent. With the coarsest
of human faces, decidedly as like a
horses as mans, he is one of the people
that should get to think beautiful"
Sir Charles Gavan Duffy himself tells
this story: An artist named tfomley
painted his portrait and bestowed on
him a dreamy poetic face which, might
have passed for Shelley's. The portrait
was shown to Daniel O'Connell by the
artist in presence of Duffy. SIS snot that
very like Duffy" said Cromley. Him, !"
said O'Connell, looking from the por-
trait to the original, 81 wish Duffy was
very like that" London Star.
