Raccoon mountain. though every year,

An Esther From an Indian village.

A remarkable woman has recently
passed away in south India-the dow
ager Maharanee of Mysore. The daugh-
ter of petty official of good family, she
was of course neglected, while her
brother received the best home educa-
ton under tutors. While scarcely 10
years of age she insisted on sharing all
his studies that she might help the boy.
Soon she got tutor for herself, and in
five years she mastered Sanskrit, Can
arese and Marathi, while not neglecting
music, drawing and needlework.
She was 10 when the late maharaja's
friends were securing the country for a
fourth bride. After the manner of Queen
Esther, she was chosen, but before she
could be sent for her father was sum-
moned to court to answer for the short
revenue Of his village. Only when or
dered to be whipped was it discovered
whom he was. He was forgiven, the mar
riage was celebrated on the first lucky
day, and from that time the young queen,
then II, was gracious and enlightened
influence in the native state Of Mysore,
the most progressive in India.-Cor.

1alotie Aesiens Of women.

Throughout the whole miserable Car
lyle Harris business certain women have
made themselves disagreeably conspicu-
GUS by an unwholesome display Of mawA-
isb sentiment, but 1t remained for q
few fanatics near Albany to give the dis
play the finishing touches. The decorab-
ton of a murderers grave by feminine
sympathizers apart from the family and
near friends was bad enough, but tho
subsequent raid on and spoliation Of the
flowers by lot OF idiotic women exceeds
all patience. These women waited until
the mourners had departed, then rushed
forward and seized the flowers. They
may have been actuated by different
motives Some doubtless wished pre-
cious souvenir of the departed, othelu
perhaps merely took the flowers as q
curiosity to be exhibited totheir friendD.
But In any case the exhibition was Of
fensive in the last degree, and more's the
pity that the women were not arrested
for trespass.
1t seems almost useless to preach to
women on the absurdities of the exhibit
tions made over the last hours Of mur-
derers, but the Harris case and its con.
clusion have necessitated strong re.
monstrance. The conduct of such wofn-
en- is almost as much an instigation as a
conformation Of murder. To hold them
up to the public and private scorn and
reproach is o duty that cannot be too
vigorously observed.--New York World.

Ladies with a rightipg Partner.

A rather curious institution is arising
in Paris-that of dueling associates of La
dy journalists. On Saturday the lady
known as Nine. Severine, who was In
ti1nately connected as friend, literary
helper and disciple Of M. Jules Valles,
contributed an article to. The journal,
at which M. Massard, socialist, took
offense. He called ON M. Xati, the edf

Of releasing M. Xau from all RESPONSE
bility in such cases, Mime. Severine was
supposed to be the joint author with M.
Labruyere of all her articles He had
agreed to be answerable for any offense
she might give.
M. Massard then sent seconds to M.
Labruyere, who, admitting that he was
the fighting partner of the lady, referred
them to couple of male friends. The
duel, which has taken place, was fierce
affair. 1t was fought with foils In the
second round NJ. Labruyere received q
cut on the chin, but the doctors saying
that it did not signify, there were five
other rounds. The combat was ended
by NJ. Massard running his foil through
the forearm of M. Labruyere. Honor
was then declared satisfied, and M. La,
hruyere was driven back to Paris.--Lon.

Mineral Soap.


San Diego Union: Coroner Wood
ward, Col. Chalmers Scott and General
Rollins OF Los Angeles visited Otay val
ley Sunday to inspect the peculiar
mineral to be found in two places in
that valley. The largest stratum is
found on bluff near DR.. Woodward's 9
old ranch, 30 feet below the summit, and
over two feet in thickness. A smaller
stratum crops out above it, and General
Rollins Is Of the opinion that still
larger one, perhaps four feet thick, will
be uncovered below it.
The mineral appears to be an excel.
lent soap. 1t has the appearance on top
of the finest CASTLE soap. Half way
through the stratum it is more Of a

1t ia believed by the gentlemen that
the mineral will prove valuable In more
ways than as q substitute for soap, and
they forwarded samples yesterday to
San Francisco for careful analysis. If
the find proves valuable it is General
Rollins'a intention to organize COM
pany to purchase the land, erect fac
tory and handle the product on large
scale. The veins or strata are horizontal,
and do not seem to dip either way. They
were discovered three or four years ago
and negotiations entered into for the

Emmons Spencer OF Big Pine arrived
in town yesterday. Himself and J. r.
Elkred and j. Mum got in few days
ago from a prospecting trip to Saline
Valley. The party had taken out ore
some time ago and sent 1t to Salt Lake
TO have test made in order to deter
mine II it would pay to concentrate.
They have got returns, and find that the
ore carries enough lead and silver to pay
well enough by concentrating. They
examined the country to find II better
road could be found than the present
from Alvord. Mr.. spsncer says they
found a much better route than any now
travelled. The proposed route will follow
the old wood road from Independence
up Mazourka csfion, but before reach
ing the summit it will swing east and
cross over to Lead caf1on. down which
easy access can be had to the plain in
Saline valley. Mr.. Spencer Gays that
his partners and himself after evamin-
ing this route were much surprised that
any other way had ever been taken to
reach Saline from this side. The party
propose to 20 ahead at once and proceed
with concentrating. They have plenty
OF ore in eight, Mr.. Spencer says. There
is plenty OF wood and water in Lead
cafion close to the mine.
Antoine Cunha and Upton Tracey are
running a tunnel above Fish spring.
Not far from their claim John Escalon is
also running tunnel to strike what he
believes the same ledge that the Others
are working upon. This last tunnel is
already in about 800 feet, and Escalon
expects to run about as much further in
order to open the ledge properly. The
parties report that the ore found in the
tunnels contains gold enough to pay
expenses. A great deal Of gold has been
taken out at the Fish spring mines.
Andy Fyfe and J. l.. Coe recently sent
q lot Of ore from the Montezuma mine
to Salt Lake to have test made. The
returns satisfy them that they can do
we'll working the mine. Concentrating
some ore and teaching the other is likely
TO be the method pursued.
