LEAD ORES.
Carlisle Thinks That the Gov. ernment ShOnld Sample
 Them.

Secretary Carlisle has rejected all the proposals offered for asssying and sampling ores on the northern and southern borders of the United States, fer the purpose of ascertsining the quantity of lead contained thereir. The proposals submitted were only for Paso del Norte, Texas, though asked for the entire border section.
 The Secretary in r,jecting all proposals takes the position that it is impossible to carry out the intent of congr ss when bids for doing only part of the work are submitted. He is Of the opinion that the work can be done more effectively and cheaper by the government. He will, therefore, re- port the matter to congress next win- ter and ask for an appropriation suf- ficient to establish proper ore-sam- bling works at the principal ore importing points along Mexican and Canadian borders.
 The above will be of great impor- tance to Nogales, ii the recommends ton of the secretary is favorably con sidered by congress, and the asked for appropriation made, as it will mean ;he erection by the government 0! buildings souitable for the purposes for which they are required, which will necessitate quite an expenditure of money, and placing of competent parties in charge to look after the gov ernments interests, who vii be the means of circulating quite an addi. tional sum in the line city.

Gaining.

Judge Andrews, of Georgia, used to tell an amusing story of the way in which he was once taken down" by one of his audience during political address. He was candidate for gov ernor of his state, and was explaining to the crowd of people that had as sembled to hear him how his friends had pressed him to be a candidate. and that the office was seeking him; he was net seeking the office. Tn fact, he exclaimed. the office of governor has been following me for the last ten years." At this point tall country man to the rear of the audience rose. But here's your consolation, judge! he shouted. You're gainin' on it all the time! lt'll never catch you"
 This cheering prophecy proved to be quite correct, in spite of the mirth ii provoked at the time'of its utterance. Youths Companion

\ Very Thirsty Dog.

A young Wissahickon man, so the tale goes. owned a dog of mongrel breed, which had added to its one great undesirable quality of low birth the more offensive one of the mango. The young man determined to sever his re- lations with the animal, and with that end in view he secured . large wash tub and put staples in the inside of II, with ropes attached to them. to secure ly hold the dog and keep its head un- der water. He caught the dog just as it came in after long tramp in the dusty roads. The doomed animal was preparing to slake its thirst ct the hy- drant. when its master grabbed 1t and tied it down in the tub. Then he turned the water on and let it run until the dogs head was totally submerged. He could not bear to see the poor brute suffer. so he went away for a quarter ut an hour He came back expecting to find the dog dead Strange 10 say, however. the dog was very much alive. There was no water in the tub; neither was there any leak in it. The dog had simply quenched h;s thirst-Philadel' phia Record.
