Caught in the Ice.

A prospector in Alaska, with party
of eight others, was walking across a
great ice field. At one place n thin
sheet of ice hid from view crack about
three feet wide. The party approached
diagonally, the prospector in advance,
when he and the next man in line sud
denly slipped through the thin coating
of ice, and disappeared in the chasm
below. Their wild cries narrowly pre-
vented some of the others from meeting
a similar fate. The second man was
carrying gun, and, as he held on TO it,
the weapon lodged crosswise in the
crevice, and enabled him to be rescued.
but the prospector fell down at least as
feet, and was tightly damned between
the walls of ice. He could not be seen.
but HIS voice could be distinctly heard
directing the movements of his res
cuers. Blankets were torn into strips
and tied into a rope. This was lowered
to the imprisoned man, who fastened
one end around his body. When the
rope was pulled, however, it was found
that he had been damned so tightly
that he could not be moved without
tearing him asunder. The rescuers
were in quandary, but the imprisoned
man suggested that they lower him
Ratchet, and when this was done he
chopped himself loose in short order.
Altogether he was 80 minutes in the icy
covered from the shock.-Golden Days.

CANADA'S MINERAL WEALTH.
Discoveries of Corundum and Asbestos
A New Gold Field.

Discoveries of Corundum and AsbestOs---
A New Gold Field.
Montreal, Nov. 5.-A valuable dis
covery of a stone called "corundum,"
which is akin to emery, has been
found in the county of Hastings, Ont.
This stone is now imported at cost of
about $50 per ton. DIR. Dawson, direc-
tor of the geological survey, has re-
ported the discovery to r. w. Scott,
acting minister of the interior. Mr..
Scott learned that the land upon
which the discovery was made be-
1onged to the crown lands, and he
therefore had it withdrawn from set
Element. 1t is said that there are other
viens of the same stone extending be-
J ond the crown lands. The provincial
department of mines of Ontario has
received a sample of asbestos found on
the line of the Kingston and Penn broke
railway in South Renfrew. The as
bestos is of the hornlende variety, and
a test shows that it contains .68 or two
thirds of per cent. of water, whereas
the asbestos of commerce contain ID or
IA per cent. When heated and the
water is driven out ordinary asbestos
will crumble readily, but this sample
Is not affected by fire. With the as
bestos was sent sample of soapstone
of good quality, and the deposits OF
this mineral are said to be unlimited.

Without the tribute of a tear.
And so behold II falling here.
A-trickIing into rhyme.
How shall live beyond the breeze.
All perfumed from the apple-trees.
Dispensing e'er a sense Of ease
Unknown to urban cline?
Oh, I shall miss the fields and hills
The ever-piping merry rills,
Wherein at eve the moon distils
shimmering pearly light
Th'alluring woods. the Ieafy lanes.
The glen where many bird complains,
The purple gloom. where twilight reigns
From dawn to falling night.

To regions of far lesser bliss
That makes the world just what 1t IL

But rainbows come, the poets say,
From smiles and tears along our way.
So smile on this poor tear to-day.
Mayhap the how'll appear.
Then let us take the symbol sweet.

With life just so much more complete
For this dear time together.

full of the gratitude they owe to the
God of Nations for His watchful care
which has shielded them from dire dis
aster and pointed out to them the way
of peace and happiness. Nor should
they ever refuse to acknowledge. with
contrite hearts, their proneness to
turn away from Gods teachings and
to follow with sinful pride after their
own devices. To the end that these
thoughts may be quickened, it is fitting
that on day especially appointed we
should join together in approaching
the Throne of Grace with prayer
and supplication. Therefore, l, Grover
Cleveland, president of the United
States, do hereby designate and set
apart Thursday. the 26th day of the
present month of November, to be kept
and observed as day of Thanksgiving
and prayer throughout our land. On
that day may all our people forego
their usual work and occupation, and,
assembled in their accustomed places
of worship, let them with one accord
render thanks to the Ruler of the Uni
verse for our preservation as nation
and our deliverance from every
threatened danger; for the peace that
has dwelt within our boundaries; for
our defense against disease and pesti-
lence during the year that has passed;
for the plenteous rewards that have
followed the labors of our hus-
bandmen, and for all the
other blessings that have been
vouchsafed to us. And let us, through
the mediation of Him who has taught
us how to pray, implore the forgive
ness of our sins and continuation of
heavenly favor. Let us not forget on
this day of thanksgiving the poor and
needy, and by deeds of charity let our
offerings of praise be made more ao-
ceptable in the sight of the Lord
