mountains from which they spring.
shortly after the, conquest mining settle

were formed, which rapidly became large and

tons OK the conquerors excited the Indians to
desperate revolt, in which all the males OF
their oPpressors were exterminated. the gov

legend relates. finally settled by a quantity OF

Since that time no attempt has been made to

Is Only by reference to the archives Of the
different provinces that their existspce and

silver mines OF Pillzthum, which are now icing

Several minss have also been opened in the
province of Esmeradas and in Orc by a
British company. Some American companies
have lately been formed to work the mines In

TWO FAST RIDES.
The Headlong GallOps Of Dick Turpin and
Squire Osbaldestons.

The Headlong GallOps Of Dick Turpin and
Squire Osbaldestons.
From Chambers Journal.
Foremost among English feats Of horseman-
ship We have one which for generations has
been represented in the circus ring. Dick
Turpin's famous ride from London to York has
taken its place among nursery legends; never
theless it was actually performed and stands as
q record Of its kind. The highwayman, riding
with the very best reason in the world-the
safety Of his neck-covered tho distance Of
over 200 miles in little under twelve hours.
This performance stands alone a. the longest
and fastest journey ever made on the same
horse. Most Of the long rides Of which records
exist have been made for wagers. Such records
are, therefore, reliable.
Squire Osbaldestones undertaking to ride
200 miles in ten hours, which he accomplished
30 successfully, is one of the most remarka BILE
feats of endurance in the saddle and has the
merit Of freedom from cruelty. The squire
rode his race on the Newmarket race course.
changing his horse every fourth mile. Four
miles is a safe limit for such purpose. as that
splendid horseman knew. Three-mile laps
could have been covered in time relatively
little better, but a sound horse in fair condition
could do his four miles without distress in such
time as to make that distance, with the subse-
quent reduction in the number Of changes. the
most suitable for the purpose. Mr. Osbalde-
stone used sixteen horses for his task. and rode
standing In his stirrups like jockey, while he
kept his mount at best speed from start to
finish OF its four-mle heat, having quite
'set-to with his pace-maker at the end of
each. The squire was hard man and in good
training, SO suffered no bad effects from his
exertions.

SHE DROPPED HER MITTEN,
And Was Angry Because the Deaf Old Ms
Misunde rstood Her.

And Was Angry Because the Deaf Old Man
Misunde rstood Her.
From the Chicago Sews-Record.
II was Just o'clock and the car was packed
with people going home. She carried some
bundles and in her efforts to handle them and
save them from crushing she dropped her nit
ten She saw it go, but was powerless to stay
its descent and it went down in successive
stages in q triangular space between herself, a
man who looked over her head and an in
dividual who deaf.
There goes nv mitteni
The deaf man leaned over and said: "Eh?'
''Ny mitteu-m itten-it fell down"
well. We can't git it, mum. Yell have to
wait till the car gifts to the end of the line. SO
the conductor kin pull up the floor"
I'm do nothing of the kind. Besides. ain t
goin 10 have all these people walkin' on it for
half an hour
Haven't ye got another one?'' said the deaf
man.
Course. I've got another one." and she
wiggled the hand encased in her other mitten
The deaf man saw the movement, and, know
ing that women often carry car fare inside
their hand covering, reached over and pulled
her Initten of for her.
Then she screamed.
The conductor was the only man who could
edge his way 10 the scene Of trouble.
What's the matter here?'
''Ladv dropped her nickel and can't pick it
up" said the deaf man.
Didn't drOpmy nickel-droppsd my mitten,' -
said the lady with the packages.
said she had another one," pursued the
deaf man. but she lied"
''You re an old door post" aid the woman
with one mitten.
''Quee- how folks 60 travelin' about town
with only one nickel" said the deaf man.
They get along better'n people with no
ears. said the woman who didn't drop her
nickel
WAS that all the money yer husband give
ye: asked the deaf man in q tone Of sympathy.
''He must be regulr brute
eff he was here now he'd eat you up"
Il spose thenls collars and cuffs she's been
doiu' up and is goin' to deliver en-" said the
deaf man TO the passengers.
Then the conductor said, ''Fare, please" and
the women gave up nickel that she had been
carrying III her mouth.
Though: it was in yer mitten," said the deaf
man.
You don't know how to think" said the
woman.
Wonder why she didn't carry EN- both in
her MOUTH" said the deaf man.
You ought to stun both of your own mittens
in yer mouth" said the woman.
''Ain't We afraid ven swaller yer nickel that
way some tIme: asked the deaf man.
II 90 reckon II won injure my hearin' :"
said the woman.
Then the conductor got down on the floor
and recovered the womsns mitten, and she got
of at the next crossing, wondering why some
people dldu carry ear trumpets.
The deaf man said. BY way Of enlightsninp
the other passengers, Il guess it WAS her nit
ten instead OF her nickel that she dropped"
