THE CHIEF EVIL.

Who let's mad passion
His acts control;
Doth thereby fashion
A ruined soul.
For every mortal

Set wide the Portals
Where he will pass.
AS sight and blindness
Are far apart,
So wrath and kindness
Affect the heart.
One leads to sadness
And loss and pain,
And one to gladness
And good and gain.

'Heigho!' said the wax doll, YEARLY.
| I'm awfully tired. I sat through two
dolls teas this afternoon, and then
stood on my head in the corner for one
mortal hour. I don't know which is

''That's true enough said the ball,
but I think it's pretty nard on me-

as much rest as I'm getting, and you

In the reading lesson there was ref
erence to some one vino had contract
ed a cold," and the teacher called atten-
ton to the word contracted" TO
contract a cold,' he explained, meant
nothing more than to catch cold.''
That afternoon Johnny had to write
a composition, and like a sensible boy,
chose for his subject an account of
fishing excursion. On the whole, it was
a pretty creditable performance for a
boy Of Johnnys age, but the teacher
was obliged to laugh when he came to
this sentences:
IT fished half an hour and contracted
five perches and one horn-pout.'

it for them it used to become quite

known to cause a number Of pigs to run

One of the mo.tt peculiar and inter
eSting places Oh The American CONT
nent is just being opened up. The
section lies across the diagonal line
that forms the southern, boundary of
the State Of Nevada, spreading into
California and reaching almost to the
line of the Atlantic and Pacific Rail-
road. The old forty-niners passed
through this section during the Cali
fornia gold excitement Many per-
ished from thirst, and the remains of
their wagons. such as the tires and
other iron parts, may be found strewn
about the valleys. #
Near Resting Springs a man by the
name Of Lee has a ranch an Indian
wife, and family of eight children.
Not far from there is what is believed
to be the famous Gunsight mine. One
Of the pioneers, in passing through
that section, picked up a piece of lead,t
almost pure, and made sight for his
gun with it. 1t was SO rich that when
he told the story in civilization pros
pectors started out to locate it. The
fact of the similarity of all the valleys
led many astray, and they perished
from thirst. His description Of the
spot applied to so many spots that no
one has ever been able to accurately
locate the mine, but the present own
ers believe they have found it.
The valley adjoining that which is
the route of the Nevada Southern is
called Pahrump. 1t is described as
the principal one of them all for gold
and silver and lead mines. Up in the
valley, which is one of those dry, bar
ren sand gulches between two perpen-
dicular walls of rock, is the Mesquite
stamp mill. On one side is the Key
stone gold mine, from which $4,000
has been extracted. Up at the head
Of the valley is the Montgomery gold
district. Several miles above the mill
are the Pahrump springs, where a
hardy pioneer has settled in beauti-
full oasis and reared family. Those
who have visited the family say that

walls and sandy deserts, is the most
beautiful woman in the West. She is
one of natures queens, and her fame
for beauty is spreading rapidly since
civilization placed it's foot in the Pah-
rump valley.
The Pahrump valley has not been
renegade Indians-a mixture of the
Mojaves, Chingowayras and Piutes, all
of which inhabit that country-have
settled in it. They once had a chief,
and when he died his son was the can
didate for the chieftainship. The tribe
did not want him, and would not elect
him, so they went without head, but
not for long. Tecopa stepped into the
job, and has since held it, and is look
ed up to as the chief. Chief Tecopa' s
attire consists of plug hat and an old
striped shirt. Once in while he wears
trousers, but very seldom.
When Mr.. Blake went there, Chief
Tecopa said that he owned all that
country, and that his consent was nee
essary before any railroads could be
built. His consent could be bought
for plug hat and red-sriped shirt.
These being promised over a pipe, TIE,
copa allowed the white chief to pro.
eeed with his railroad. - Denver Re.

A Pocket NiRht-Lamp.

To instantly obtain light sufficient
to read the time by watch or clock
by night, without danger Of setting
things on fire, is an easy matter. Take
an oblong vial Of the clearest of glass,
put into it piece Of PHOSPHORUS about
the size Of a pea, pour upon this some
pure olive oil, heated to the boiling
point; the bottle is to be filed about
one third full, then cork tightly. To
use the light remove the cork, allow
the air to enter, then re-cork. The
whole empty space in the bottle will
then become luminous, and the light
obtained will be a good one. AS soon
as the light becomes dim its power
can be increased by opening the bottle
and allowing a fresh supply of air to
enter.
In very cold weather it is sometimes
necessary to heat the vial between the
hands to increase the fuidity Of the
oil, and one bottle will last whole
winter. This ingenious contrivance
may be carried in the pocket, and is
used by watchmen in Paris in all the
magazines where explosives or 1nfiam'
lnable materials are stored.
