STORY OF A LOST MINE.
[Contlnued from first page.l

discovery of Negro Ben's remains a Mexican who was prospecting in that locality met an Indian of the Yuma tribe. The Mexican had in his posses sion a saddle that the Indian tried to barter for. The Mexican told him that if he would get him a double handful of gold the saddle was his. The Mexi- can was not serious, but was surprised when the Indian gave grunt of as sent with the rejoinder for the Mexican to remain there until he returned. It was then nearing dusk and tn Mexican watched the Indian until he disap- peared on the trail over Nigger Ben's peak. The next day shortly before noon the Indian reappeared and si- lently handed the Mexican a nugget of pure gold much larger than hens egg. The trade was at once made, but to the Mexican's query as to where the nugget came from the Indian only shook his head.
 Strangely enough there is now living in the neighborhood of the peak a negro who is working a claim with an arastra and is getting wealthy fast, and to those who are cognizant of the existence of the mine spoken of in that district are of the opinion that the spot is not far from where the colored man is working.

The Soko Ape.

Letters from the African traveller, Oscar Neumann, at Buhoba, says the London News, contains many interest ing things that Neumann learnt from the Manyemas. One is that the Sol1o ape is very common and much feared in Manyamaland, between Nyangwe and the northern shore of the Tang anyilla. Some time ago an Arab wanted to take Soko which he had captured to the coast. He succeeded in reaching Ugogo with his prize. There he died, and his sons, who attributed the death of their father to the entertainments of the wicked wood demon. hastened to retransport the supposed origin of their misfortune to it's native place, and the interesting specimen was thus lost to science.

DUlRRANT SENTENCED.
The Dreadful Words Heard With 3
 Smile of Defiance.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 6.-Judge Murphy denied Theodore Durrant's motion for new trial and ordered the prisoner to stand up.
 He promptly arose and not a muscle of his face moved while Judge Murphy sentenced him to be hanged at San Quentin till dead. He then smiled defantly and commenced talk ing to his father.
 Durrant was taken back to the county jail. In ten days he will be taken to San Quentin prison, there to await the execution of his sentence.
 Durrant will appeal to the supreme court.

The First Metal.

Gold, because it was found pure and fairly tractable, was probably the first metal used by man. Copper, it is true, is found as a metal, but only in one comparatively restricted locality. Oc- casionally gold fish hooks have been discovered in graves in New Granada. In mining a tunnel in Cauca a gold hook was found in 18G2 fifty feet under the surface of the ground and beneath what must have the bed of river. Copper fish hooks have been found in many of the ancient burial mounds of PerTJ

DEMOCRACY'S DESTRUCTION.
What Adoption of Cleveland's Finan

DENVER, Dec. 6-Hon. c. s. Thomas, National Democratic commit lteeman, from Colorado, expresses the following opinion regarding the presi- dents message:
 "On foreign affairs, the president is Democratic, therefore right. On fiscal affairs he is consistent with his past but so radically wrong that none save Wall street interests can regard it otherwise than as the expression of an obstinate man, whose theory is that he must be right and therefore every one

POSSESSIONS OF A TRAMP.
Wayfarer Who Was Prepared for AnI
 Emergency.

A Wayfarer Who Was Prepared for Any
 Emergency.
 Probably there wasn't another person in the state so well prepared for emer- gencies as tramp who has just visited Saco and Biddeford. Hehad no over coat, but. as he wore two coats, two thick vests, two pairs Of trousers and plenty of underclothing, he didn't miss one much.
 When he wandered into the police station, says the Lewiston (Me.) Jour nal, he bore big bundle consisting of heavy comforter rolled in piece of several dozen of loose matches and box of parlor matches, a big roll of newspapers, two dozen railroad time tables, box of salve, bottle of insect powder. two harmonicas, lot of cards, handful of toothpicks, shoestring, wire nail, collar button, lead pencil and a carpenters pencil, box of inGel- ible leads, an illustrated catalogue of rubber shoes, purse with six cents and an old copper. three broken clay pipes, a new pocketbook. a piece of silk hat lining, two pieces of castillo soap, two sand rollers, three seashells. a broken clamshell, a knife, plug of to- bacco, some fishing tackle, spool of thread, a piece of wood, a paper of needles. a roll of birch bark, suspen- der buckle, package of cigarette pie lures, notebook containing several sketches of Bar Harbor and vicinity, a chestnut, an acorn, a whetstone, a dozen pieces of rock, a new whisk broom, pocket comb and big spoon.

Produce of Fractions of a Penny.

The old lesson as to little drops of water, little grains of sand" making the universe has had one more exempli- fication. It is the custom of the Bank of England not to pay fractions of a penny. In the case of dividends on government stock these fractions have in the course of years amounted to one hundred and forty thousand pounds, which amount, it is stated, was few years ago paid over to the chan cellor of the eXchequer.

personal invitations Toward the end of
the services temperance meetings are held,
pledges presented, and women invited to
join. Over 10 lady missioners are now
ready for the work. ;"
From five states alone were reported 81,
1888 gospel meetings, 1904 visits in
homes, so, 415 services in jails, 2, 335 in
churches 906, S5S pages of literature dis
tributed.
Mrs Alice Gordon Gulick of San Sebas-
tian, Spain, formerly of Boston, reported
that I" in Spain the work is largely per-
sonal, as there is no opportunity for pub
lie work under existing religious condi-
tions. Many are employed as evangelists
and teachers and the graduates of the in
ternational institute at San Sebastian,
organized under the laws of Massachu-
setts, are exercising Christian influence
over nearly 10)0 children.
'f1n Spain it is necessary to teach the
young the Christian doctrine as found in
the revealed word of God, otherwise
many would grow up almost as ignorant
as the heathen.
'It is no small thing for Spanish
girl to sign the pledge An American
has no idea what it means, for wine is as
common, yes more common than good
water in Spain
So few avenues of support are open to
young women in New South Wales that
they are found keeping private bars, es-
pecially in Sydney These are generally
upstairs, sublet by publicans to girls.
The photos and pictures on the walls, in
some of the places are most debaSlng.
The W. C. T. u. labors to free Aus
tralasia from barmaids and private bars.
The superintendents of the Sunday
school department are recommended that
the W. G. T. U. throughout the world
unite in the effort to make the last quar-
terly temperance Sunday Of 1885, which
falls on November "a, a special temper
ance day, not only in the Sunday school,
but in the churches as well.
At the afternoon session the convention
received and disposed of department re-
ports on questions of suppressing the use
of opium, the international arbitration of
disputes and the reading of the Bible and
secular newspapers. Lady Somerset read
q petition signed by Miss Willard on be-
half of the convention, which it is in
tended to have presented to Parliament,
if possible asking that legislation be
enacted to further the prevention of
inebrity. Walter S. B. McLaren, M. p,
delivered an address urging the conven-
tion to place the question of female
suffrage at the head and front of it's pro-
gramme. Miss Willard moved that the
convention record the opposition of the
union to all forms of lawless punishment,
especially to torturing and lynching, and
pledging its utmost efforts to cause such
barbarous acts to cease everywhere. The
convention then welcomed the fraternal
delegates. most of whom were residents
of London.
