ACROSS THE YhQUI COUNTRY
The First White Man Who Ever Accom-
 piisicd the Trip.

The First White Man Who Ever Accom-
 piisEicd the Trip.
 Charles T. Naylor, an American pros pector who left the city of Chihuahua eight months ago for a trip across the Sierre Madre mountains and through the wild and dangeroEs coun. try inhabited by the Yaqui Indians arrived at Hernosillo, Mexico, re gently.
 His trip was made in the search oi silver and gold. and was the most des perate undertaking imaginable. Mir Naylor's route from Chihuahua was by way of Tomochic, the town which was entirely dcpopulatcd in an attack made upon the inhabitants over year ago by Mexican troops. who massacrec the men, women and children.
 MT. Naylor stated that in the noun tains west Of the fated town he came upon band Of about two hundred Tomochic braves who had an almost impenetrable rendezvous upon which all attacks of Mexican soldiers had proved futile. Upon observing that Mr. Naylor was an American bent upon a peaceful mission, he was well received. He spent two weeks with the Tomochics and then entered the Yaqui country. It vas there that be met with difficulties. He was captured by band of YaGuis and held prisoner for several days pending 9 decision of the chief as to what disposition should be made of him. After several solemn councils by the chief with the other prominent members of the tribe, MT. Naylor was placed upon horse and with two wounded Indians as guards was started across the coun- try toward the west. He passed through number of villages, and was never permitted to tarry longer than one night at a single place.
 At the western confines of the Yaqui country his guards left him and he made his way with great difficulty across the mountains to Hermosillo. MT. Naylor tells some maI vicious stories of the mineral richness of the Yaqui country and states that the number of the members of the Yaqui tribe has been greatly underestimated. He claims to have seen fully three thou sand armed braves. Some Of the h. dian towns contain handsome chapels and buildings, all of Aztec architec- ture. Mir. Naylor is the first white man that is known to have crossed the Yaqui country. There have been nu- merous attempts made, but the Va quis always interfcred. This is the only tribe in Mexico which has never been conquered.

Too Good a Joke.

Lord Bowen, an English judge, was once tempted to sum up ironically. It was the case of Q burglar who had been caught, having entered from the roof and taken the precaution to leave his boots on top. His defense was that he was in the habit of taking midnight strolls on the roofs of houses, and that he was tempted by curiosity to have q look at one of the interiors. Lord Bowen said, sarcastically: If, gentle men of the jury, you think it probable that the prisoner considered the roofs Of the houses Q salubrious place for an evening walk; if you suppose that the temptation to inspect the interior of the houses beneath him was the out come Of natural and pardonable curi- osity, i'll that case, of course, you will acqult him, and regard him as a thoughtful and considerate man, who would naturally remove his boots be- fore entering the house, and take every precaution not to disturb his neiChbors." To the judges amazement, the jury took him at his word and ao- quilted the prisoner. Lord Bowen never attempted to joi1s with . jury again.

On the Safe Side.

A well-known lawyer on circuit in the north of England, curious to know how certain jurynan arrived at his verdict, meeting him one day, ventured to ask. Well" replied he, I'm a plain man, and I like to be fair to everyone. Fdon't go by what the wit nesses say, and don't go by what the lawyers say, and don't go by what the judge says; but I looks at the man in the dock, and says: He must have done something or he wouldn't be there,' So l brings 'em Ill in guilty"

BISMARCK'S MORTGAGES.
The Ex-Chanccllor DevOting 932, 900
 Year to tho Liquidation of Debts.

The Ex-Chanccllor Devoting s32,OOO a
 Year to tho Liquidation of Debts.
 Nobody in Germany has felt the evil effects of the agricultural depression more keenly than has Bismarck To persons who have read of the magnifi- cent presents given to Bismarck by the old emperor it has been a surprise to learn recently that his estates are heavily mortgaged. His present from the old emperor after the AustrO-Prus- sian war of 1866 was $500, ,O00, and with this sum he bought his palace at Var zin. After the Franco-Prussian war he received from the same hands the Saxon forest at Friedrichsruhe, valued at S75O,000. He inherited the ancestral estate at Schoenhausen. On April 1, 1883, Bisnarck's seventieth b;cthday, his admirers throughout the world gave him that portion of the Schoen- hausen property which his father had been obliged to sell when times were hard. The money value of the gift was some $400, 600. Bismarck is also distiller, forester and the owner of large brick yard. Despite all these ad- vantages, however, says writer in the Home Journal, he has found it impossi- ble to lift the mortgages, amounting to about 9750,O which have incumbered his estates for many years Of his gross income more than S32, 1000 must be devoted every year to paying the in- terest on his debts. The burden is not agreeable to the old chancellor, and he has often remarked to his friends re- gently that his ambition to leave an unincumbered property to his children would never be gratihed.
