Culberson, the governor of the
State, This paper not only charges
the short comings Of the governor

The Dallas News should rise above
this, and give the governor pointers
as to what he should do, and not
wait until he makes his "boyish

A Phenomenon About Gold.

1t has always been q wonder to the
honest miner where the gold comes
from that he finds in the grass roots
at the tops of mountains far away
from ledges of gold bearing quartz.
Out at Cripple Creek, Col, last sum-
mer this phenomenon was pointed out,
and one ingenious explanation, which
is generally accepted by the ignorant
miners, was that the little particles Of
gold dropped from the SCOT that was
thrown out by the volcanoes that are
said to have ornamental that section
away back in the mysterious past.
But Professor Walcott, the director
of the geological survey, says that is
not so. He thinks that the tops of
the mountains there where the gold
dust is now found were once covered
with crags of quartz which decayed
and crumbled ages ago. Their dust
has mostly blown away, but the ker-
nels of gold, being heavier, have hid
den in the soil and remained. Hun
dreds of thousands OF tons of dirt
have been carted from the mountain
tops to the creeks in the valleys where
there was water to wash it on. That
is what they call "mining the SEN
ery. y."-Chicago Record.

In an Indian Canoe.

leaps in safety from crest to crest of
the cataract, or buoyantly surmounts
the pillows of the stormy lake. 1t
was we'll for this morning that it was
so, for we were heading toward Il
broad sheet of water that was thickly
dotted with white caps. We were
soon far enough out to feel the full
force of the gale that stung our faces
with wind and spray. To 60 against
such q wind with q bark canoe would
be an utter impossibility, but to run
with it was great fun. Our safety
depended upon the skill of the steers
man in keeping her before the wind.
Certainly the day had commenced
auspiciously; we were making quick
time. The complacent 1rishman was
taking to himself all the credit for
this gale as though it were pnrt of
his business. was forbidden to pad
die, but with Capt. Mick's consent I
tied the tails of my rubber coat to
the handles of two paddles and in
serted the blades in The armholes.
This extempore sail greatly added to
the speed of our flying craft On we
flew, outstripping the spray that
leaped after us und fell short. This
kind of sailing furnished sensations
for which no analogy can be found in
the whole range of navigation. In
stead of plunging deeply and labor
ing heavily as wooden boat would,
our buoyant vessel scarcely deigned
to plunge at>all, but seemed to skim
like q sea-gull on the very foam it
self. So we crossed Lake Talon in .
boat which man could carry, doing
eight miles of angry waves without
shipping q thimbleful OF water. -

Mrs. Beecher as an Author.

The first thing Mrs. Henry Ward
Beecher ever wrote for publication
was in 1859, when she was lying on a
sick bed, and to pass away the time
she wrote what afterward grew into
the story ''From Dawn to Daylight. "
These were sketches OF western life,
many of them drawn from her own
experience. The sheets of paper upon
which the story was written were
thrown into o bureau drawer without
any thought on the part of the writer
of ever making use of them, but one
day her daughter, a young girl about
twelve years old, came across the man
uscript and became SO much interested
in the story that she begged her mother
to have it published. "And for that,
my first publication, I received $500, "
she added. This was the beginning oi
her literary labors, which have been
kept up more or less ever since.

Keeping Trees Awake Nights.

Electric lights are playing sad hav-
oc with shade trees in towns and vii
lages," says philosopher. 'The effect
is to make the leaves appear as though
they had been subject to blighting
breath. Artoriculturists say that the
light keeps the trees awake, and con-
sequently they are tired to death.
Trees need sleep and rest as we'll as
any other things in nature, and the
lack of this rest causes the leaves to
droop. This solution is probably cor
rect, as it has been noted that similar
trees in the neighborhood of those
affected, but removed from the expos
nre of the illumination, retain their
strength and color" This should be
looked into.. If remedy is not pro-
vided for before another spring, the
trees near electric lights will probably
leave,

The Vineless Sweet Potato.

The 7ineless sweet potato is proba-
bly, sport of the common yam grown
in Mississippi and Alabama. It was
found near Columbus, Miss, in 1884.
Since then it has been gradually dis
tributed throughout the south. It's
vines are short, never reaching three
feet in length, and oftentimes not
over two feet; very stocky and com.
pact in growth. Leaves very large
and deeply cut. Both vine and foliage
very dark rich green. Roots are me-
dunn in size, smooth and excellent in
quality. Quite productive and stands
drought we'll.
On ascount of the character of its
vines it may be cultivated late in the
season; oftehtimes q very important
factor in deciding the yield OF the
crop: It is also known as the bunch,
the early bunch, bunch yam and trie
bunch.
The variety has been grown at the
Louisiana station for the past four
years; and is there regarded as the
greatest acquisition in sweet" potatoes
thus faf obtained.

Miss Lavinia lad gone home on
feet that scarcely seemed to touch the
pavements, so swift was her stately
speed. She had locked herself and

they were part of the plan of creation

this Inskip pride? Her woman's
