labor devolved upon the three men who
had been upon the mountain for almost
three days and one night without sleep.
Ii was almost an engineering feat they
say, to lower the body from ledge to
ledge with ropes. They toiled until late
in the night before they reached Lagaan.

Our party, which left Milwaukee on
Wednesday. reached Medioiue Hat.
on Friday night, the time when the
party of which Mr.. Abbot had been a
member left Banff, and we awaited them
at that place. We came east to Moose
Jaw, on the Canadian Pacific, and took
the 500 road to ST. Paul, while Profs.
Little and Fay and Mr.. Thompson CON
t1nued over the Canadian Pacific to Bos-

chosen as the leader because he was by
far the most proficient climber. He had
mads number of difficult ascents. and
had great deal of experience on the
Matterhorn. He was daring, but not
reckless, and never neglected to take
every precaution possible. This was
clearly shown in the well-made steps
which he left for their descent. and by
which the remainder of the party re-
turned in safety without the use of
ropes, and over portion of the noun

The post mortem examination and

BILE that he never regained consciousness.

which requires $13, SOC, 900. Next comes
the item OF Sustenance, which is 81, $780,
900; next, clothing for the troops,
81, 100000; then medical supplies, $14O,
900; cavalry and artillery horses, $780,
600; arsenals, 100000, and quartermas-
terS supplies and other miscellaneous
expenses $4,000, 900. For the mainten-
ance of military posts, parks, hospitals
and cemeteries, 81 GOO, coo was required.
The West Point academy for the train
ing of future officers cost $500, 900. The
transportation of troops is put down at
81, 100000, and the expenses of the war
department in Washington at 100000.
All these and many items besides bring
up the expenses of the American army
to more than $50, 900 in year for, as
said, $4,000 soldiers, and it requires no
elaborate computation to show how
great is the burden of expense abroad
with the prodigiouS armed forces which
are maintained in European countries.
Russia has an army on a peace foot
ing in excess of 500, 900 men. Germany
and France follow with $4,000 each
there is less than 5000 difference be-
tween them-AuStria with 800. coo, Italy
with 100000, England with 100, 900, and
Spain, exclusive of the army in Cuba
with 100000 troops. In fact, there is no
country in Europe making any pre-
tense of having any army that does not
possess a larger force on a peace foot
ing than the United States. Even a.
kingdom so insignificant as Portugal
mas standing army of 10000, and
three small countries of Europe, Hol-
land, Denmark and Belgium, have each
of them more infantry soldiers than
the entire United States army. rank
and file. The maintenance of the Rus
sian army costs $125,000,00O, and the
French and German armies cost about
the same.

CHANCE IN MINING.
story Told by "a Former Prospector
Who Made Money on the Snake
River.

Denver Republican: "The romance of
mining said Henry t. Cooper of Gin
cinnati, at the Albany yesterday, lis
very largely a matter of legend. Years
ago when I was mining in Gilpin
county we used to hear some extra
ordinary stories of accidental discoV-
cries of mines, but so far as my exper-
fence went the discovery and Develop
ment of mines was nothing but genu-
inc hard work, with the chances
against the prospector securing any
thing more than a living. There was
one exception, however, which came
under my observation, and l have al
ways regarded it as the exception
which proves the rule. There was
young fellow from New York working
on shaft with me, who was always
joking about what he proposed to find
sometime. He frequently took a week
off and went prospecting, but found
nothing, and always came back in a
good humor TO take our jokes upon his
lack of success. Sometime in 1867 he
worked pretty steadily until he had ac-
cumulated quite a stake and struck
out for Montana. His name was John
Shuster, corrupted in the camp
to Jack Shoestrings. Nothing was
heard from him for more than a
y
letter from .'Shoestrings He was up
in Idaho, and wrote me that he had
found something good, and if 1 came
up he would put me in the way of
making some money. 1 found him
away up on the Snake river working
on placer. He told me he camped
near the river one night, and in dig
ging in the bank TO make a comfortable
sleeping place had found a nugget
weighing about half an ounce. In the
six months that had elapsed since his
discovery he had taken Fut with rough
sluice boxes about $4,000. We turned
in together, dug a ditch to bring the
water to our claims, and in two years
took out about 600 and then sold the
claim for $4,000. Shuster is now a
prosperous farmer in Illinois, having
been extremely lucky in all his ven
lures, and 1 have managed to get along
with the stake 1 made then. This is
the only instance that l know of in
which the discovery of a gold mine was
the result of pure accident !"

COSTLY STANDING ARMIES.
Every Nation Pays Dearly for the
maintenance of Its Troops.

The United States army, limited by
law since June, 1874, to $4,000 men,
forms a very modest land force when
compared with the prodigious armies
of European countries yet it's main
tenance costs more than $50 000, 900 a
year, and the treasury estimates, for
next year viii entail larger appropri-
alton for army purposes, If adopted
than in any previous year since 1870
when with Indian wars on the frontier
and the army doing police as well as
military duty in the south the total
expenses Of it were So, 0OO. GOO The
United States army at the present time
consists roughly of 1900 infantry. 6. 500
cavalry, and 4.500 artillerymen and en-
gineers, the officers of each service he
ing included. The United States own
and are put to no expense for the
rental of the various forts. barra cISs
and encampments required for mill
taryl purposes The pay of the soldiers
IS not on a scale of extravaganza. and
congress is more frugal than liberal as
rule with army appropriations.

from each wound a new hydra is born.
A love of the weirdly grotesque can
gain infinite satisfaction from the COM
binations this animals character
makes possible. Wherever the freshly
cut surfaces of hydras are Joined to-
gether, they will adhere and grow to-
gether. Thus I have aided in the crea-
ton of hydras with two suckers, with
out body; of hydras with many
mouths; of hydra with multiplied ten
tacles. Two hydras, or more, may be
made into one; one may be made into
almost any number.
What, then, can be said of the hy-
dra's individuality? Certainly it is not
fixed, as it is in the case of most

HELPFUL HINTS.
Household Suggestions That Is Well
to Paste in the Family Recipe
Book.

Remove grease spots from a carpet as
soon as possible, before they have time
to sink into the fabric. One of the sim
plest and most effectual ways of remov-
ing them is this: Take equal proportions
of lump magnesia and fuller's earth,
pound and mix well together, and make
into paste with a little boiling water.
Spread this paste while still hot upon
the grease marks. and leave it until dry.
Then brush it off, and you will find the
carpet quite free from stains, the grease
having been absorbed by the paste.
If SCOT is spilled on the carpet, it should
never be wiped up with Il cloth, for it IS
sure TO smear over the carpet and make
an ugly mark difficult to remove. Scatter
salt thickly over the place and sweep it
and the SCOT together. By so doing the
latter will come up without leaving any
mark.
Fuller's earth if properly applied will
remove the most obdurate grease spots
frcm the daintiest fabrics. Put a layer
OF the powder on bit of clean cloth.
Upon this place the spotted part of the

to dip it in hot soapsuds, thoroughly
shake it. and then hang it up to dry

WHAT THE WIND SAYS.

When Willie goes upstairs to sleep,
A keful ear he's sure TO keep
Upo-c the Wind who always knows
What Willie does, and where he goes:
If he's been good the whole day long,
The wind sings ever the same song.
In sweetest. softest lullabies
As White gently shuts his eyes:
"Gcod and truei Good and truei
Willie, you-Willie, y-o-u"

Poor Willie's willful, cross and bad.
He breaks his mothers stricCeSt rule
And even slips away from school,:
Then when he creepS into his bed.
And pulls the pillow Ger his head,
And listens-harkl the mad Wind Knows.
Hea- how it whistles, storms and blows:
so untrue. So untruel
Willie, you'll mean YOU
Oh, then his heart begins to quake,
And one long hour he lies awake,
Ard wonders how the wise Wind knew
TIE wisest wind that ever blew
TIL something inside speaks out bold:

Oh, yes, twas l. who told the Wind,
And both of us know you have sinned. =
