San Francisco in IS4S.

In 1913, just before gold had been dis
covered il. California, the city of San
Francisco had population of $50 all
told and consisted of about 200 wooden
buildings. In the spring of 1S4S there
began to be rumors of gold discoveries
in the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas,
and presently actual miners appeared in
town showing small parcels of gold dust.
Then came an era of wild speculation
and extravagant prices. Common la
borers were getting ten dollars day
and ordinary mechanics twenty dollars;
men who had lived on five dollars a
month now spent hundreds; men who
had been idlers formerly were now
among the most industrious, and men
who had before never wasted day be-
came loungers and gamblers. The mad
scramble for wealth manifested itself
on all sides. In the first six months of
1949 $4,000 souls were added to the popu-
lation of San Francisco, and by the end
of the year the Pacific coast metropolis
had over $4,000.
And how did they all live? In frame
houses of one story, more commonly in
board shanties and canvas tents, pitched
in the midst of sand or mud and various
rubbish and strange filth and feas, and
they slept on rude cots, or on "soft
planks" under horse blankets, on tables,
counters, floors, on trucks in the open
air, in hunks braced against the weather
boarding, forty of them in one loft; and
so they tossed and scratched and swore
and laughed and sang and skylarked.-

Sheep on the Track.

"Sheep;;" said Engineer Willard,
"cause more trouble than any other
stock An engineer always tries to
guard against killing stock, but if l had
my choice would rather run into cat
tie, horses, hogs or any other animals,
rather than sheep. Many thousands of
sheep are in the great focks that some
times cross the tracks of western rail
roads. Where there are no fences quick
turn in the road through cut may find
the locomotive moving right through
them. 1t is well known how sheep fol-
low their leader. Notwithstanding the
moving train they continue to rush un-
der the cars, and sometimes many are
killed that the locomotive never touched
They really commit suicide, crowding
under the wheels before the train can he
stopped.
sometimes over 200 Or 300 sheep have
been killed. But the wool gets into the
running gear of the engine, and this
causes the engineer more trouble than
the killing of other stock. Sometimes
the engineer is compelled to stop and
clean out the wool that works its way
into the more delicate machinery. At
the end of the trip search is also made
for wool that may have escaped the at
tention of the engineer in his examina-
tion,"- Denver News

Il will be happy whatsoever befall."
Alas. full soon the darling OF my flock was laid

And brought such grefs as memory ne'er for
A bush of thorns sprang up where bloom'd but

A bed of violets.
At last, full tired of seeking Joy and finding
Sorrow,
said, "Oh, thing of tears! prithee come
With me today-be first to greet me on the
morrow
Make of my heart thy home.'
Then Joy outspread her wings to follow where
went,
And time few by as in fairy's dream;
The fragrant air seemed filled with songs mel

And life was Joy supreme.
There's wealth in penury; how rich are they
who own
Contented hearts, and strength to bear their
lot;
And many petty tyrant-puppeto on throne
Were happier in cot.
So would teach thy heart toe dear philosophy
That showers blessings on the human race;
If rightly seen, its mans best privilege to die
And see his Makers face!

Our lives are reckoned best by deeds-not

Enough to know that God to every heart will
send
Its share of joy and tears.

Cold Storage in the Polar Regions

In the polar regions seal oil is buried
in the ground in bags of skin. Meat is
heaped upon platforms built among trees,
which are peeled of bark in order to
keep bears from climbing up them. Lit
tie sticks with sharp points upward are
buried in the ice to distract the attention
of the bears from the provisions over
head. Another kind of cache is In the
shape of a strong pen, the main supports
Of which are standing trees, with brush
and logs piled on top to keep out wild
animals.
During the salmon catching season in
arctic Alaska the heads of the fish are

When they are half purified they are
dug up and eaten, being esteemed great
delicacy. Chicago Herald

He was fifty pounds lighter it seemed
to him, as he mounted the restaurant
steps. But then. what if, after all, she
did not come? No matter, he would not
think of it, but continued on, greeting
again with pleasure that varied odor pc
cullar to resta 1rants, that rattle of plates
and glasses clinked up and down the
stairs by hurrying walters, towel on arm,
and knives and forks sticking like quilts
from their jacket pockets.
Monsieur is ;lone?" asked one of them
affably, advancing to meet him.
Eyes; but expect some one. No. is
free, is 1t not?''
Eyes. monsie,.y." He threw open the
door, and Raoul entered joyously.
"And monsieur will not order now?'
demanded the man, depositing the menu
with flourish.
mot now, I'll watt" and he threw
down his hat and looked about him.
The same eternal cabinet that he had
seen hundred times-red paper, leafed
with gold; sofa with three cushions,
none too soft; clock in gilt bronze, two
flower pots with flowers, an upright
piano out of tune, a carpet where all
the boots of Paris had a right to leave
their traces, and a table in the center,
laid with covers for two. The forks We're
twisted and tarnished from service to
hundreds of mouths, the crystal heavy,
warranted not to mick" and on the
edges of the plates and the rest of the
''indestructible" china the name of the
restaurant scrolled in gilt.
Something in the surroundings recalled
to Raoul the &sgust that he had once
felt, but certainly would feel no more;
nevertheless he got up and opened wide
the window to freshen the atmosphere,
which was indisputably trife close
"How curious" he murmured; '.but
l had forgotten all thisr'
And he began to whistle softly to chase
away fancies not SO pleasant that were
coming to mind. Somehow or ether his
gayety, too, seemed leaving him. He
drew out his watch to see the time-a
quarter past 7, and he was distinctly
hungry. What if that letter after all
was a joke? A joke! He had not
thought of it that way, but maybe after
all it was better it should be so.
Quiet as it was now-not to say sad
in No 3, it was very gay indeed in the
adjoining cabinet, the loud clatter of
plates and clinking glasses mingling at
times with gay bursts Of laughter.
At last rustic of skirts approached
in fho rnrri6n1. Al tho
the door flew back, lady entered pre-
cipitately and fell, evidently prey to
fear or embarrassment, breathlessly upon
the sofa.
A dy?-undoubtedly. Uneasy and
puzzled-why he knew not-Raoul ad-
vanced to meet her. She raised her
hand, the veil was of, and-Leulse was
before him.
Louise, serene, smiling, unruffied as
ever and sweetly murmuring:
Il was dying, you see, Raoul, to taste

tions were made l have not an idea. But

The Thief Had the Drop.

Smith was trailing horse thief. He
had been on his track for two weeks
and finally got into small town in
Dawson county about fifteen minutes
behind him. The inspector learned the
man was in a saloon, and he started af-
ter him. Opening the door, and before
he could step in or out, he was surprised
to find his horse thief was prepared for
him. With his gun pointing directly at
his pursuer he called out: ''I've got the
drop this time, Mr.. Inspector. Don't
reach for your gun, but come and take
a drink" Smith laughingly accepted
the invitation, but two days afterward
he got the drop, and that same horse
thief is now over in Deer Lodge.-Hel-

Here is quaint but crushing refer
rnce of 1881 to theatrical representa-

The opera of ''Masaniello' has been
got up at this Lancaster theater, the
music being left out, no doubt by very
particular desire, inasmuch as there
were only five persons in the orchestra.
An Irish jig was substituted for the
overture, and Scotch dance was one of
the chief attractions Of the piece.-Lon-
