1t is an interesting coincidence that at
this precise period the first steamboat
voyage ever made in Western waters odd
ed the novelty of its occurrence to the
commissions of nature in this region.
The name of the steamboat was the New

In drifting down the river, suddenly
they found the weather oppressively hot,
the air misty, still and dull, and though
the sun was visible, like an immense

OLD SAVINGS BANK.

Where the Hoarding of Our Grand
mothers Were Kept.
The stocking bank of our grand.
mothers, says the Boston Traveller, is
not yet absolate in the country districts,
and the daily papers give frequent &C.
counts OF its insecurity. Safes are not
burglar-proof, either, and the occasional
bank Tobberies and the failures, too,
keep alive the fondness OF women for
searching for queer hiding places for
their savings. Some of the old-time
banks" showed considerable ingenuity
in their construction or covering.
An old lady living in New Hampshire
town had set OF large stationary draw
ers topped by cupboards built into one Of
her huge closets. The lower drawer, in
etead Of resting directly on the floor, ran
on groves perhaps two inches above it..
| She would pull out this lower drawer,
place her jewel cases in the place left be.
low, and then push in the drawer, which
she kept filled with linen.
Equally shrewd was an Ohio woman,
who, whenever she went out, put her
money and iewelry In the coal ecuttle,
covering them up carefully with several
layers Of coal. This might have proved
rather risky experiment in the winter
months, when the fire had to be fed, but
their owners felt that no burglar would
ever think Of looking there.
A favorite hiding place for money, es.
pecially for bills Of large denominations,
has always been the big family bible and
the unabridged dictionary. This 10 still
common in rural places So is the prac.
tice of sticking money snuely sway under
a corner OF carpet, particularly under
some large piece Of furniture. This is q
method that has much to commend it
Tea caddies aud sugar bowls make ex.

The most severe effect Of tearing up

however, Mr.. @. O. Hobart, who was

short cut across county in new grazing
grounds, driven the sheep into corner

guilty and were fined $25 each. The
costs, however, amounted to $500, and
these not being paid, the iustice OF Vale
Issued an execution against the sheep
for costs altendent on the $25 fine por-

action. Judging from the amount rolled
up on the first arrest, by the time the
Nevada sheepnen get through with Ore.
gon they will owe the officials Of this

The arrests were made under section
