But above all the great mercy OF God aid
ed us, and when the Indians of Xicotenga
found that two of their squadrons refused
to assist them, they began TO iiag and
retire little, and then our horse charged
them on half~rein and when we saw
ourselves freed from this multitude OF
warriors we gave thanks to God. We
had one soldier killed in this battle and
seventy wounded. ALI of the horses
were wounded and was wounded twice
in the head with a rock and in the arm
by an arrow, but not so seriously that
could not fight and so it was with all the
wounded, unless the wounds were very
serious, they continued to fight, aud in
deed il all the wounded had ceased to
fight there would have been few LETT. We
now returned TO our camp well contented
with the result of the battle and we buried
our dead in cave so that the Indians
should not find out that we were mortal.
AS usual we dressed our wounds with the
fat OF an Indian, for we had neither oil
nor salt nor clothes to cover us and that
night was bitterly cold, for the wind
blew off mountain covered WI h snow

in the alley for the first rag picker to
capture and turn into money. There is
one firm in the city which bottles for half
dozen mineral water companies. and
it pays for all the bottles of those firms
that are offe ed. OF course, if the firm
changes the style of the bottle, the mar
ket falls off in an aston shing degree.
The bottle is then worth Just as much
as broken glass of the same weight and
the only place where it can be sold is at
the glass works, where il can be melted
and modelled into bottles again.
Rags come into the general category of
junk, for they are handled by the same
dealers who give the Junk its first handling.

cotton. The former brings more money,

MOCKlNG BIRD OF SATICOY
James q. Clark

What was the song bird telling the world
When day, with its sounds of JOY,
Had westward marched, with banners furled,
From the hills OF Saticoy?
He sat in the dark magnolia tree
While the mist came up from the twilight sea
And sang his evening song to me,
And these were the words heard
From the throat of the knocking bird:
al am singing the song my fathers sung
When the sea was here and the hills were
young,
And the surf leaped up to greet the sun
Where the corn now waves and the squirrels
run,
And the wild sea new and the gray gulls flew
Close up to the feet of the mountain brown.
When the sea was here and thu hills were new,
Ere the torrent bore their treasures down
To bridge the bay with the fertile lands,
Where the orange groves in gold and white
Now lift their heads in the soft warm light,
And the silver leaves of the olive shine,
And the fields are decked with the fruitful.
vine,
And the lofty eucalyptus stands
Forever green in the travellers sight
Where the rose trees blossom the whole year
round
And the hues OF heaven new birth have found
In the flowers that shine from the lowly
ground"
What was the song bird telling his mate,
In a ripple OF quiet joy.
When the midnight moon-like the eye of
Fate
Looked down on saticoy?
He sat by their nest in the cypress tree
Two leagues away from the silver sea.
And warbled low to his mate and me,
And these are the wor DIS / heard
From the heart of the knocking bird:
al am singing the song our fathers sang
In the Aztec combats long ago
When the air was rent with the battles clang
And the Northern arrows rained and rang
On the shields OF the southwark flying foe
That fought in vain, then sank and died
On the crimson plain and mountain side,
And left no sign but the tel-ta grounds
Where race lies dead in million mounds
That dot the lands from the cold North Lakes
To the cline where the wind OF the tropic
shakes
DER the grave OF many q buried town
The fruit OF the palm and the fig tree down"
But what was the song bird singing about
In chorus mad with JOY,
When the day came in and the stars went out
DER the slopes OF Saticoy?
He sat in the green acacia tree,
Where the land looked out on the golden sea,
And sang his sunrise song to me,
And these were the words heard
From the soul OF the hooking bird:
ave are trillng the notes the bird shall tril
When men no longer scourge and kin,
When the North and South and the East and
West
Shall draw their life from common breast
When the Northern brain and the Northern
will
And the Southern heart and the Souther soul
Shall together blend in perfect whole
OF the Nooler Race, whose blood shall roll
Forever tree from the faint OF crime,
In that shining Age, whose morn Sublime
Appears on the distant verge OF Time,
Whose music floats on the early air
Like an answer to a worlds long prayer
That man shall his brothers keeper be,
That the mark OF Cain may be efaced,
And the land, like the open air be free,
And the white bloom in the desert
waste

for not listening to any of their apologies
and for refusing them friendship, but
that he would now receive them in the
name of our lord the King, and that he
thanked them for the provisions. but to
go Immediately and tell their Caciques to
come and make formal treaty or that
he would go to their town and make war
on them.
As God was pleased to give us the vic
tory over the Tlascalans, the fame of our
battles spread to all the surrounding
nations, and was carried to the great
Montezuma of Mexico, and if before, we
were considered as Teules, from this on
they held lis in still greater reputation,
ana the whole land was terrified by the
reports OF our deeds, the Tlascalans being
SO many and our nlini Der so small.
Montezuina now sent eight of his prin-
cipal counsellors to welcome us and con-
graduate us on our victory, and he sent
a present OF over one thousand dollars in
gold and twenty pieces OF fine cotton
cloth and told his ambassadors to say that
he wished Cortes to receive him as a vassal
OF our great Emperor and that he was glad
we were so near his capital because of the
good will he had for Cortes and his
brother Teules; to let him know what
tribute we demanded and he would send
it each year on condition that we should
not go to Mexico. This he said was not
because he did not want us to go to
Mexico, but because the intervening coun-
try was sterile and broken and he did not
wish us to undertake such dangerous
and toilsome journey.
Cortes replied to the ambassadors that
he was grateful for the kindly spirit
shown by the message and also for the
present OF gold and the Offer to pay tribute
10 our lord, the King of Spain, and he
begged them to remain with us until we
reached Tiascala, where he would give
them message for Montezuma.

But no man can understand the total
of articles that go to make up the mass
of matter that is classed under the general
head of Junk. 1t includes nails that are
worthless and are found about the ruins
of a building consumed by fire; nails that
are picked up in the neighborhood OF
buildings in course of construction; of
tools that are worn out or lost in the
street. 1t includes all manner of metal
whatsoever and from all manner of
sources.
1t would be unfair to the fame of GER
tain gentlemen to say that all junk
travelled by honest hands from the be-
ginning TO the end of its career. Lead

There are dozen junk dealers in Los
Angeles and they do business that is
quite as reputable as any other. The
term Junk dealers includes. though not
quite fairly, all those dealers who buy
and sell iron alone and that in large
quantities. Popularity, the term is sup
posed to describe the men who drive
wagons about the by-streets of the city,
one hand to the mouth and crying:
"Ra-a-ags, old iron Ragsn' This is
the junk man pure and simple. All the
rest are but improvements upon him
He is the master thought--the key on the
kite string, the steam in the tea-kettle.
The others are simply the development
OF men who have had someone show them
the way.
For Junk is progressive business 1t is
the handling of worthless material, which
leaves value in the hands of every man
who buys and sells it. Its stock in trade
is everything from a broken glass bottle
to q copper cannon or the sword Of Bun
kcr Hill. There is scarcely anything that
the junk man will not buy and absc lntely
nothing on earth, broken or whole, that
he cannot sell.

The Largest Cross in the World

The Evangelist says that the largest
cross in the world now stands in Drake S
Bay, North America. Three hundred and
fourteen years ago the celebrated Sir
Francis Drake landed in this bay and his
Chaplin, Francis Fletcher by name,
preached the very first English sermon
crate this event Bishop Nichols of Cali

caused large stone cross TO be erected
300 feet above the sea. The cross is 81 feet
high, OF blue sandstone several of the
stones in it are larger than the largest

Louis Hartung, the youngest son Of
August Hartung, committed suicide by
shooting himself behind the right ear
Friday night at 11.30. Death did not
occur until o'clock Saturday morn

was noticed. For several weeks past
he has been suffering with quick con-
sumption, and the doctors had told
him he had but a short time to live.
This knowledge of his dreadful disease
undoubtedly brought on a melancIholia,
whioh led him to take his own life. His

Brewery and well-known in this coun-
ty. He Is survived by q wife and sew
