Solomon'a Celebration.

Solomon had an old fashioned
Fourth of July yesterday that did the
hearts of all present good. There was
the usual parade, a unique series of
races and games and an oratorical pro-
gram. William Pitt Seeds, stalwart,
made the address. The eagle was
duly scared on high and patriotism
fairly bristlsd in every sentence of his
stirring speech. There was large at
tendance of people from the vicinity as

Will Be a Beauty.

When G. G. Sterl & Co. go at any
thing 1t is well known than they do it
up in metropolitan style. They have
started in to arrange their new store
room and 1t goes without saying that
nothing SURPRISING it will be seen in
the State. The firm will occupy the
room Immediately north Of its pre-.
sent location and will in order to ac-
commodste its large stock have both
upper and lower floors, making a
double floor space. The room will also
be greatly improved, the walls newly
decorated, the windows lowered, the
stairway improved and IN all respects
the room will be beauty and worthy
the progressive and enterprlsng firm
that will occupy IL, Such improvements
as Sterl & Co, contemplate are an
honor TO the town and when the new
model clothing store Ia complete, as II
will be in ten days, Abilene will SEE
something TO be proud Of. The large
stock Of mems furnishing goods which
now overhows the shelves, counterI
and tables will be added to until IL will
be a surprise even to the hundreds Of
customers Of the house who have cont
to think that nothing is too good To-
Sterl 50 Co. The improvements beiol
made will be watched with interest al
1t will make 80 decided in addition u
to Abilene's list of business rooms.

Fish Alive IN Boiling Water.

One Of the most remarkable discevries
in the shape Of q peculiar fish ever made
on this continent, says the Sacramento
Record Union, was that made at Carson
City. Nevada, in 1875. At the time both
the Hale and Norcross and the Savage
mines we're down TO what is known as
the 200 foot level Wnen at that depth
q supterranean lake OF boiling water was
tapped. The accident flooded both mines
10 depth Of 400 feet. After the water
had all been pumped out except that
which gathered in basins and in the in
accessible portions OF the works, and
when the wafer still had temperature
Of l2s degrees-nearly scalding hot
many queer-looking little hlood-red fish
were taken out. In appearance they re-
semble goldfish. They seemed lively
and sportive enough when they we're IN
their native demonstrating water
notwithstanding the fact that they did
not even have rudimentary eyes. When
the nsh were taken out of the not water
and put into buckets Of cold water for the
purpose Of being transported to the sur
face, they died As quickly as a perch or
bass would If plunged into kettle OF
water that was scaIding hot. Eyeless
fish are common enough in all snbter.

4 Joke That Reacted.

A young man who is now well estab
lshed in bis profession told reporter a
story OF an experience he had when a
student in q Chicago medical college
In this college there was an irascibIe old
jsnitor upon whom the young medicos
we're alwavs playing tricks. In the base
ment Of the college were two "picklip
vsts," and one day the boys decided
that one OF their number should clip
down and conceal himself between the
tanks, and when the jsni,or made his
tour OF that portion Of the bnIlding to ap-
pear before the old man wrapped in a
sheet. In due course OF dime the j,nitor
put in an appearance, making his final
round OF inspection of the building for
the night.
As the janitor approached the tanks
the young man came out from his hiding
place and said, in sepulchrsl voice, Il
want 10 get out Of here" The janltor
was unnerved for an instant only; then
taking in the true situation, he seIzed the
student by the nap Of the neck and
around the waist saying" "You will not
get out Of here 20 back where you be-
long," lifting him up bodily and threw
him into one of the watts, which contained
several subjects. The young man was
extrica'ed from his horrible position by
his companions, who we're close at hand
to enjoy the janitor's scare. but it was
several weeks before he could forget his
experience sufficiently to enjoy his meals.

The Purity Of Gold.

The purity Of gold is estimated by an
Abyssinisn weight called q carat, Ara.
bian quirrat, a bean, the fruit OF the
csrab tree, which is subdivided into four
parts called grains. The term carat
when applied to gold and silver is not
weight unit, but the whole OF express
ing the purity and fneness Of the metal
In wenty-fourtbs. Thus lS.carat gold
is metal in which eighteen parts out Of
twenty-four (or three fourths) are pure
gold. This method Of estimating fineness
is traceable from the marc of Europe
having been divided into twenty -four
real csrsts or actual weight units. The
present method is to estimate fineness
in thousands; i. e., gold fine has $50
parts alloy, corresponds to lS-carat gold,
three quarters Of the metal being pure
gold in each case Our gold coins are

A Transvaal correspondent TO Mon
tans paper calls attention to several fes'
lures OF life in South Africa that are worth
repeating. "a very noticeable feature OF
this new country" he says, lis that no
body carries gun and there IS no
toughness such as characterizes mining
camps in other lands. For upward OF
six wears hundreds OF thousands oi ounces
OF gold have gone annually from this
place by stage and the coach has never
been held up or penny weight Of gold
lost in transit. A box containing over
100 pounds avoirdupnis OF gold was drop

was picked up and brought on by another
team.

cause there is less probability Of the mar.

more to be feared from lead ore from
Spain or other foreign countries than
there is from Mexico. Probably lead will
