This is why the camel is so superior to the
horse In those countries where water is
found only in the catered oases, often sew
eral days journey apart.
Traders who wish 10 sell their goods in
the interior travel in large companies called
caravans. This IS for protection from the
Bedouins, who live in the desert and often
subsist by plundcrin- passing travellers A
caravan frequently contains a thousand
camels, travelling in single file, some carry
ing the goods to be sold, others saddled as
you see in the picture The Arabs are very
kind TO these valuable creatures, and instead
OF beating them to increase their speed will
frequently sing cheerful songs for their en-
eouragement. The camel kneels to receive
his burden, and if too heavily laden will
complain Of the cruelty in bitter cries and
refuse to rise. The engraving faithfully
portrays his manner Of resting.

ROUGH AND READY JUSTICE.
How Party of California Emigranta
Avenged a Dastardly Murder.

NOW larty OF Caiilofnll Emigrantg
Avenged a Dastardly Murder.
A remarkably thrilling story of one of
the many tragedies that marked the mad
rush Of emigrGnts westward over the plaip4
after the discovery Of gold in California
has recently been narrated by Mr., jaw
Green, who left Illinois with an overland
party In 1852
As was customary. the party with which
MIR. Green Travelled was consolidated with
Several others that they overlook on their
way, among the rest by two Kentuckians.
Colonel Bosley and Major Beal by name.
The KentucIiians had quarelcd shortly aft
er joining the train, but everything ap-
peared to have been amicably arranged TN
til one day it was decided to camp for rest
till noon Of the day following This did not
suit Bosley, who desired to 90 on, and he
hitched up his two mules and left the camp
early the next morning. though his partner
refused to 60 with him.
Beal then made arrangements with Mr..
Green and his partner for conveyance to
California, and it was decided at 10 a. m.
to break camp. At noon the train over
took Bosley, who had stopped to feed his
mules. They passed him and soon came to
very steep hill Mr.. Green's team was in
the lead, and Beal was driving IT, When
they got to the top Of the hill, they waited
for the other teams to come up What fol-
lowed is best told in Mr.. Green's own Ian
guage;
just at this time Bosley appeared at the
top of the hill, riding a mare and carrying
a double barreled shotgun on the horn Of
his saddle. He rode up quickly, his eyes
flashing intense anger, and demanded:
Major, are you going to leave me in this
kind of a way2"
Beal replied firmly, YES, sir, | am"
Bosley instantly raised his gun and fired.

but not in time. grasped the muzzle of

IN MEMORIAM.

WILLIAM d. TOWLES, late professor
Of anatomy and materia medica in the
University Of Virginia, was born March
Z, 1917, at Columbia, Fluvanna county,
Va; entered this university as student
Of medicine October l. 1861. and was
graduated with the degree Of Doctor Of
Medicine in June. 1863. On October J,
1872 he returned 10 the service OF the
university as demonstrators Of anatomy,
and on the death OF the revered and
lamented Or. John Stage Davis In 1855,
was appointed his successor. He died
September -. 1893 upon the opening
day Of the seventeen session OF the uni
versity after an illness Of a few hours.
His one and twenty years OF service
form an epoch in the teaching of anat-
omy in this university and In America.
The accuracy and abundance or his
knowledge, the order and luninousness
OF his exposition. his skill IN selecting
and his felicity m expressing the salient
truths Of his science conquered tho con-
fidence OF his students, reused their IN
terest and attention. and powerfully I'M
pressed their memories.
In his intercourse with both coleasues
and pupils he was frank, bold ana dl-
rect. Loyal to his friends and geneT-
Gus TO the verge or profusion, indulgent
to the frailties of youth and inexperience'
but governed always by the highest SEN
timent Of honor he attracted the love
OF his pupils and the regard, OF his
EQUALS, and maintained from all the re-
spect due 70 his robust intelligence, his
manly nature and his warm heart. His
friends and colleagues In the faculty Of
the University OF Virginia do therefore
Resolve, ]. That they mourn the death
OF their late associate. both as a personal
bereavement and a public loss, and de-
sire hereby 10 put on record their sense
OF his unsurpassed powers as teacher
and his noble qualities OF mind and heart
9 That they extend 20 his afflicted
family their profound sympathy In the
dispensation OF Providence which has
taken from them brother husband and
father. and invoke for them those ceies-
tial consultations which alone are able
TO alleviate their grief.
3. That these resolutions be spread upon
the minutes. and that the chairman OF
the faculty be requested 10 transmit a
copy TO the family. and 10 cause them
to be published In the Richmond and
Charlottesville papers.

the day at the Stock Exchange was
the selling Of a block Of Rock Island,

for the account Of Harris & Co., of the
Consolidated Exchange. over 10000
shares were closed out. The firm in
question has dissolved and will go out
OF business. The market, generally
speaking. was inclined to weakness, be-
cause OF a belief that the chances Tor
a repeal of the Silver bill by the Senate
are diminishing As result, holders of
stocks are reducing their lines, while
the hears are more active The prices
of stocks ranged from u to ~ per cent.
and as a rule. the lowest figures of the
dov were current at the close. The
hank statement. favorable as II was,
failed 20 check the downward tendency.

easier for borrowing purposes II opened
at 3-1O per cent. per Diem premium, but
after the close 1t fell fiat. The bank
statement reflects the tide OF currency
towards this centre. The sales OF listed

opened strong and higher on light

prices for the better grades and light
receipts for next week, and scarcity
of offerings. Trading early was liSnt
