One of Gilmer county's chief con-
tributions to the Worlds Fair was
taken to the railroad Monday for
shipment. 1t was a lump of coal
weighing from 1900 to $500 pounds,
and was taken out of Elmer EIIiott's
bank, a short distance above here.
1t took eight horses TO haul this
mammoth lump, and even such a
team was hardly equal to the task,
as they were stuck for several hours
on the way from here to Weston.
This is the kind of coal that has
been lying here through all the
years awaiting the advent of a rail-
road. And there are untold guam

EgEs of the Bob White.

Perhaps no bird in America, Ger.
tainly no other in Michigan, equals
the common bob white or quail in
the number of eggs it sets upon. This
species not infrequently lays Is eggs,
and even more are found in one nest.
but I can assure the readers that with
any other shaped eggs the bob white
could never succeed as a successful
setter. I will suggest that my friends
with collections at hand compare a
set of 20 eggs of the quail with 20
eggs of equal dimensions in longer
and shorter diameter of any other
species and observe which lot occu-
pies the smaller space We may say.
for illustration, that the bob whites
egg is triangular and fits in as no
other egg, to my knowledge, can

After studying the section in a re-
cent act of parliament emitting wit
nesses to claim to be sworn in Scotch
fashion with the uplifted right hard
instead of by kissing the book, the
Rev W. J. jenkins of South Often
ham wrote for information concern
ing the Scotch manner of taking the
oath to the secretary for Scotland. 1t
Is hardly the business of Sir George
Trevelyan to answer such questions.
but he has good naturally sent by
the permanent under secretary of
his department the terms of the
Scotch judicial oath, which are. Il

shall answer to God at the great day
of Judgment, that Will tell the truth,
the whole truth, and nothing but the
truth, in so far as 1 know or as the
same shall be asked of me-"
This, says Sir Colin Scott Mon
Grief, is the formula used by wit
ness when he is put upon his oath.
He stands and with his right hand
held up repeats these words after

cred to administer the oath.-Lon-

WHERE INDIANS WON'T VENTURE.
The superstitious Mountains of Arizona
and Their Wonders


The suPerstitiOus Mountains OF Arizona
and Their Wonders.
Among the natural wonders of
the great southwest are the Super
stitious mountains, which loom up
red and rOseate from the arid desert
TO the east of the Salt river valley, u
said Ben Rogers, an old cattleman.
These mountains are so curious that
as long as Arizona has been settled
the Indians would have nothing to do
with them. In consequence they are
full of deer. ibex, bear and other wild
game 1t is tough work getting up In
them, however, and because of this
they are natural fortress for wild
game Rising out of the level surface
of the desert like the pyramids of
Egypt are the Superstitious noun
tains.
They reach total height from
the valley of from 5000 to 5. 500 feet,
and probably their height above the
sea Is from 1000 to 5000 feet. There
are 40 foothills leading up to them
whatever. On one side is valley as
level as a billiard table, and on the
other these lofty mountains rise.
There are many theories for this, but
no certain solution.
ION the crest of this unique range
and IN full view in the rarefied at
mosphere for an immense distance
from the plain are hundreds of queer
figures. representing men in all atti-
tudes. They represent ball throwers,
Outlooks, mere viewers of the coun-
try round about, men recumbent and
cOntemplative, others starting on a
foot race and in every conceivable
posture and position They are not
real flesh and blood men, however
nothing but stone syenite-yet moth
ing can convince the Indians and some
white men that they are not genuine.
They say they are real mortals turned
to stone, petrifed by the peculiar
condition of the air on the mountains.
Now, you can induce an Indian to
brave all the ella monsters and rat
tlesnakes of the plain, but you can't
induce him to try and scale that per-
pendicular range. He is satisfied to
let alone the ancient abodes of the

where the petrified men are, even
though the mountains about are full

field for the naturalist and the anti

the petrifed men they will at least

Old Fashioned Business Methods.

Some business methods survive a
long time even in New York, and
the ancient custom of taking a
young man in to learn an important
mercantile business upon little or nc
salary still prevails. A college bred
man, anxious to learn a certain
wholesale business, found that his
pay would be but 800 the first year,
and at the end of five years he would
hardly be able TO pay his board out
of his salary. The business has in
it, however, the possibility of for
tune and the eventual certainty of a
handsome income. York Sun.
