An English Tradition.

There is . large bowlder lying in q
field near Foremark, England, which
is known throughout Derbyshire as
'Hangman's Stone" The exposed por-
ton of the bowlder rises about six
feet above the surface OF the surround
ing field and has narrow ditch or in
dentation running across the top. The
mark, so tradition says, was made in
this way: A sheep thief in the dead OF
night, while leaning against the
bowlder to rest, placed his booty above
on the fat surface of the stone. The
man had the sheep tied with rope
and in its effort to escape the creature
slipped on the opposite side, and the
rope catching under the thiefs chin
choked him to death. The indentation
IN the rock was made by the friction OF
the rope while the dying man was en-
gagged in IN effort to extricate himself.

AN OPTICAL PHENOMENON.
Peculiar Silhouettes Seen from tho Top OF
q High Mountain In Telemarken.

Peculiar Snhouettos Seen from tho Top OF
High Mountain In Telemarken.
A correspondent of Nature at Chris
tiania gives an account OF very curl
GUS phenomenon witnessed from the
top of Gausta mountain (height six
thousand Norwegian feet) in Tele-
marken, south of Norway. "We were
a party" he says, "of two ladies and
three gentleman on the summit OF this
mountain on August t. On the morn
ing of that day the sky was passably
clear; at noon there was thick fog.
Between six and seven o'clock in the
afternoon (the wind being south to
southwest the fog suddenly cleared in
places so that we could see the sur
rounding country in sunshine through
the riffs. We mounted to the flagstaff
in order to obtain better view OF the
scenery, and there we at once observed
in the fog, in an easterly direction,
double rainbow forming complete
circle, and seeming to be twenty TO
thirty feet distant from us. In the
middle of this we all appeared as black,
erect and nearly life-size silhouttes.
The outlines OF tuc SlAAOuC1CCS "OAS
so sharp that we could easily recognize
the figures of each other, and every
movement was reproduced. The head
of each individual appeared to occupy
the center of the circle, and each OF us
seemed to be standing on the inner
periphery Of the rainbow. We estl'
mated the inner radius of the circle to
be six feet. This phenomenon lasted
several minutes, disappearing with the
fog bank, to be reproduced in new fog
three or four times, but each time more
indistinctly. The sunshine during the
phenomenon seemed to us to be un-
usually bright. Mr.. Kielland- d-Torkild-
sen, president of the Telemarken Tour
ist club, writes to me that the builder
Of the hut on the top of Gausta has
twice seen spectacles of this kind, but
in each case it was only the outline OF
the mountain that was reflected on the
fog. He had never seen his own image
and he does not mention circular OF
other rain bows"

TOLD 81 a SOCIETY GIRL.

Mild Sprees That Appear to Her In the
Light of Demoniac Tears.
A couple of girls met down town the
other day, and both at the same time
exclaimed: "Say! Let's do something
dreadful!'
They thereupon rapturously resolved
to break away from conventionality's
bonds, swear eternal secrecy and do
something daring. They couldn't
quite decide what was bad enough to
do, says the New York Recorder, so
they adjourned to soda stand to talk
it over, while their guardian angels
wrung their white hands in trembling
horror of what was to come and the
girls themselves felt like awful adven-
turesses. And what was it they really
did?
Well, they crossed the street to q
place where some long-haired ladies
held forth, envied them their six-foot
long tresses, were coldly frozen out at
presuming to question them, bought
some shampoo powder and emerged

they remembered certain lady

had always labored under the impress
sion that they were-to be modest
not especially bad looking, and this
experience rather put damper upon
their feelings, so they gained the
street in q subdued frame of mind and
wondered how people could bear to
look at two such homely girls. After

" urged things upon them. Then they

SCENES At THE SEAS BOTTOM.

A Tutor ut tho Paris Un1ver slty succeoo~
In Taking submarine Photographs
NJ. Louis Bonton, tutor at the Paris
university, who has been for some time
distinguished by his submarine investi-
cations and geological treatises on the
Red sea, has now, says the Par1s
Figaro, succeeded in taking photo
graphs of sights which he encountered
in the depths OF the sea. Descending
by means of divers dress, tins gen.
tleman manages to carry with him
small camera specially constructed for
the purpose. After trying for some
time to operate in the natural light to
be had at the bottom OF the sea, he
found that it was too weak to produce
photographs. so he next attempted
with magnesium to obtain flash that
would enable him to take by the in
stantaneous process. He contrived
small spirit lamp resting on bottle OF
oxygen and covered by glass shade,
and into this lamp he threw some
magnesia by means of an india-rubber
ball which was pressed for the pur-
pose.
At each flash thus obtained photo
graph was produced. These expert
ments have been made in q quiet bay
near the coast, in the ichthyologicsl
laboratory at Banyniser-Mer, but the
success which has attended them leads
to the hope that soon we may venture
further ahead. Already dreams OF au-
tomato apparatus are not wanting
which could be sunk and return with
pictures of the deep sea such as no
mortal eye has ever behold. M. .Bou-
ton relates that while he was busy
with his experiments large numbers OF
fish and other creatures that inhabit
the depths Of the sea gathered round
the spot with evident curiosity about
the nature of the proceeding. But
they showed no fear. When he tried
to touch or catch them they merely
moved aside to evade his grasp. but
were not disturbed, nor did they move
away to any great distance from the
spot in which they were interested

Preventing Future Misery.

If there IS, in this vale of tears, a more prolific scource of misery than the rheumatic twinge, we have yet to hear of it. People are born with a tendency to rheumatism, just as they are with one to consumption or to scrofula. Slight causes may develop this. As soon as the agonizing com plaint manifests itself, recourse should be had to Hostetter's Stomach Bitter's which checks it's further inroad and banishes the rheumatic poison from the systam. This statement tallies exactly with the testimony of physl- clans who have employed this fine blood depurent in their private prac- tice. There is also the amplest profes- sional and general testimony as to the efficacy of the Bitters for malaria, liver complaint, constipation, indiges- tion, kidney trouble, nervousness and loss of appetite and flesh. After a wettmg, whether followed by a cold or not, the Betters Is useful as a preventive of the initial attack of rheumatism.

old TIme Friends.

Nothing during our stay in Yuma, has ever given us more pleasure, than to meet our old time friends, Hon. D. c. Reed president of the San Diego, Yuma and Phoe- nix R. R. and Hon. w. H. Carlson, Mayor of San Diego, two of the most energetic business men and capitalists in that growing city, who spent Wednesday in Yuma. They visited all of the principal gardens in town, and were more than pleased with the fine growth of oranges, Times lemons and other nearly full grown fruits, What surprised them most were the beautiful ripe lemons still on the trees, the grapes as large as peas, and the beautiful date palm trees, in blossom and in fruit. In the afternoon they visited the Sanford Farm and were astonished at the marvellous growth of vines, veget- ables, nut and fruit trees, and the large area now under cultivation. The alfalfa, now three feet high and ready to be cut the second time, came in for share of their admi- ration. In the evening both gentlemen spoke at the railroad meeting, and were listened to, with great interest by all of those pres ent.
 Coming as these gentlemen did from San Diego, after having visited Phoenix and seen the boasted beauties of that section, it was more than a pleasure, to hear them give Yuma the name, of surpassing any place they had seen on their trip of nearly 1000 miles though Southern California and Arizona. Like Mr. and Mrs. c. A. Curtis, they were more than surprised to find that not tree, plant or shrub in Yuma or vicinity, showed either the red, white or black scale, and to find the bark, every limb and leaf so clean, clear and bright. What they saw, though old timers on the Coast, was revelation to them. The people of Yuma can rest assured, that in Messrs. Reed and Carlson they have two warm friends. They left for San Diego, Thursday morning but will shortly return to Yuma, on business con nected with the new railroad line to Phoenix and San Diego.

The Spring,

Of all seasons in the year, is the one for making radical changes in regard to health. During the winter, the system becomes to a certain extent clogged with waste, and the blood loaded with impurities, owing to lack of exercise, close confinement in poor ly ventilated shops and homes, and other causes. This is the cause of the dull, sluggish, tired feeling so general at this season and which must be overcome, or the health may be en- tirely broken down. Hoods SaTsa- parilla has attained the greatest popu- larity all over the country as the favorite Spring Medicine. It expels the accumulation of impurities through the bowels, kidneys, liver. lungs and skin, gives to the blood the purity and quality necessary to good health and overcomes that tired feel ing.

PHOENIX, Ariz., April q, 1893.
 To the Branch Silver Leagues and Silver Clubs of Arizona: It is hereby ordered by the undersigned that a silver convention be held at Phoenix, Arizona, on Thursday, May 18th, 1893. Each league and silver club is entitled to a representation in said convention by as many delegates as they may choose to represent them. And all other silver men are cordially invited to attend.
 The object of the convention is to perfect thorough organization in the interest of silver in order that effect i've work in the direction of the free coinage of silver may be accomplished. Our sister silver states and Territories are organized and laboring to bring about this much needed financial reform, and Arizona should not be found tagging ir the great work. The time has come when decisive action must be taken to assist the silver cause. An arrogant and corrupt gold ring is determined to destroy silver as money in the United States, and the impending crisis is now upon us. Come one, come all, and let us take such action as will cause our power to be felt, and let us do so without fear, for the lord hates a generation of towards. Able speakers from abroad will be present.

Of the ninety laws enacted by the 17th legislature nearly all went into effect on the date of their passage, yet the people will remain in ignorance of their provisions until their publication in pamphlet form, and even then their distribution will be so limited that not one in twenty of the people in the Ter ritory will gain knowledge of their requirements. Provision should be made for the publication, in the news papers of tha several counties of the Territory of all laws, as soon as enact ed, the expense of which would not necessarily be burdensome tax on the Territory, as in view of the i'm portance of giving publicity to new enactments the press of the Territory would willingly do the work at re- duced rates. In no other way can the laws be given the desired publicity and it would be much more sensible and advantageous than the appropria- tion oflarge sums to favored newspa- pers at Phoenix for the publication of the legislative proceedings, which give little if any information of the pro- visions of bills introduced and serve only to confuse the reader.
