An enthusiastic miner writes the Port
land Sun that there is more gold in the
Columbia and Snake river bars than has
ever been mined in the United States, and
that recent inventions have made it posi-
BILE to save this fine material as easily a 5
the ooarser gold. He takes the people of
Portland 10 task for trying TO relieve the
distress of the poor of that city through
the establishment OF small manufactures,
whenfts one soap and one match factory
is languishing for the want OF necessary
home support. He asserts that money in
vested In economic appliances for the
washing of the auriferous gravel and
sands of the Snake and Columbia rivers,
will give constant employment 10 hun
dreds of men. afording them remunera-
tive returns and yielding 10 the capital
lists a fair rate OF interest. Every dollar
thus taken from the earth is a dollar adj
ded to the wealth of the country. and
every man thus employed is one less in
the ranks of the unemployed and needy.

1900 feet above the sea. With them
are found the teeth of gigantic sharks
that must have been nearly 100 feet in
length, capable of attacking the largest
whales.
The entire country of northern Cali
fornia presents the details of its history
in stone, and one familiar with those
evidences may turn the leaves and read
them as q book. Among the hills that
contained the bones of these leviathans
/ found deposits of fine clay, the bed of
an ancient lake in xhich were the re-
mains of nyriads of fishes that had been
left by the water and buried in the bot
tom, to be found in after ages to tell
their story.-Cor. Philadelphia Times.

from time TO time a sudden thrObUInS
is audible, measured by regular inter
walls, like the beating Of human pulse
These, too, proceed from no apparent
cause, and science has been unable to
solve their mistery
At the crest Of the highest rock III the
center of the Shoshone falls is the nest OF
all eagle, and for 81 years the same bird
has come regularly on the 26th, 9th
or 2Sth of March to repair and reoccu-
py it and raise brood of young. Char
lev Walgomet first noticed her when he
located here in 1860. The nest was
standing then, and as long as he lived
there, until five years ago, he kept
record of her reappearance. She never
varied more than three days i'll her ar
rival. Since his time the record has
been kept by others, who testify to the
same regularity.
The spray from the falls carries a
sediment which clings like frost to the
windows of the little hotel and can be
scrapsd off with knife. Mr.. Keller,
who keeps the place, says that they
clean the glass every spring by laying

have soaked for three or four days the
coating can be wiped off with cloth,
but in a few weeks the glass is covered
again, as if it was frosted. The scrapinss
look like the dust of lime. The same
sediment clings to the leaves of the
trees and vegetables that are grown
around the place and can be scraped off
the rocks and the face of the bare clay.

SHOSHONE FALLS.
Phenomena Which Give Rise to Stories
About This Wonderland.

Strange stories are told Of phenomena
that appear at the ssoshono falls. Some
times when the air'is perfectly still the
spray arises several hundred feet above
the walls of the canyon and can be seen
ON the plains at considerable distance.
Then for days and weeks at time there
is scarcely any spray at all. Often the
whole canyon around the falls will be
filled with spray, and every bark and
rock will drip with moisture. Again it
will be as clear as frosty night under
the same conditions from influences that
no one has been able to discover or ex-
plain.
Often above the monotone of the fall
ing waters weird sounds may be heard
unlike any that were ever named and
can be compared to no other, and again

A QUEER DISTINCTION.
1t Is That of a Man Who Was Once Swal-
lowed by an Alligator.

Edward Rowland enjoys the distinc-
tion of being the only person living who
was swallowed by an alligator. The
saurian swallows his prey whole and
digests it at leisure, and it is to this
characteristic that Rowland owes his
life.
When boy, his parents owned a win
ter home near Sanford, Fla, which is
near Dunns creek, where there are still
more alligators than can be found in
any place else in Florida.
At the time mentioned, it was liter
ally swarming with the huge reptiles,
and the largest ever killed Were secured
here, one measuring over Is feet in
length.
Young Rowland had gone with his
parents 70 = rcirt cl tho st. Johns riy-
or, near the mouth of Dunn's creek, and
had wandered away from them. Sud
denly a huge gator emerged from a
small lake and started toward creek,
coming Immediately past the place
where the boy was seated on the bank,
kicking pebbles. The child started to
run, but stumbling fell head first i'm
mediately in front of the reptile, which
swallowed him at once.
Young Rowland S screams were heard,
and the parents reached the scene jusG
in time to see the disappearance of their
son down the huge throat Of the sauri-
an. The father, never dreaming that
the boy was not killed, shot the alliga-
tor, the ball, fortunately, striking him
in the eye and penetrating the brain.
The feet of the boy were protruding
from the mouth of the dead alligator,
and with the thought of only obtaining
his remains for burial the reptile was
cut open. There were signs of life, and
after several hours of hard work the IA
ther succeeded in resuscitating the boy,
the only serious injury being to his an
kles, which had been crushed by the
reptiles teeth when he was i'll the throes
of death.
Since that time Rowland has been q
cripple, but only to the extent of having
to wear steel braces ON his ankles. -
