Harder Than Steel.

Des Moines, Iowa, has q modern
Tubal Cain in the person of s. r.
Dawson, who claims to have discov-
cred the lost art of making ''Damas.
cas- steel" He has exhibited in Chica-
go some samples of cutlery made
from the metal, which has an edge
keener and smoother than q steel
razor. This was demonstrated by q
microscope and photography. The
new metal is combination OF copper
and tin and two other elements which
Mr.. Dawson keeps secret. A dagger
made from it looked like polished
gold. Mr.. Dawson claims to be a
lineal descendant of Ralph Hogge,
who cast the first iron cannon made in
England, and his ancestors on both
his fathers and mothers sides have
been workers in iron and steel. He
says his discovery is partly accident,
but primarily the reward of years of
labor, research and experiment. He
claims that the new steel or hardened
copper is suitable for any kind Of cut
lery from a common pocket knife to
the most delicate surgical instruments,
and that no deteterious oxide rusty
forms on it under the most severe
tests. Any steel drill forced against
it when it is hardened will break

Bob Mason's Fight With Buck.

Bob" Mason, a famous Sonorna
County hunter, had thrilling expe'
rience with a big buck in Mendocino
township recently. Mason was out
hunting and slightly wounded fine
deer. In pursuing it he fell into
deep hole of water, He lost his rife
in the stream and after Aoundering
around while managed to get hold
of big log that projected over the
pool. He cravled upon it, and had
hardly seated himself before he saw
the buck swimming toward him.
The animals eyes were blazing and
he made straight for Mason. Mason
drew his hunting knife, and when the
buck got near enough he grabbed it
by the horns and both went down in
the stream. They struggled, and at
one time Mason thought his time had
come. However, he succeeded in in
Aicting q mortal wound on his enemy,
and after few moments succeeded in
getting to shore with the buck. There
party found him lying exhausted by
the side of his dead adversary, about
an hour afterwards. It was the fiercest
fight he ever had with deer and Ma.

Wedding Superstitions.

The bride, who finds spider on
her wedding dress may consider her
self blessed.
The bride who dreams of fairies the
night before her marriage will be
thrice blessed.
If the groom carry miniature
horse shoe in his pocket he will always
have good luck.
Ship marriages are considered any
thing but lucky. Get married on land,
or don't get married at all.
No bride or groom should he given
telegram while on the way to church.
It is positively sign of evil.
If the wedding ring is dropped dur
ing the ceremony the bride may as
we'll wish herself unborn, for she will
always have al luck.
Kiss bride right after the cere-
mony, and before the newly made
husband has had chance to do so,
and you will have excellent luck
throughout the year.
Maidens eager to we'd should give
dish water heated to the boiling point
a wide berth. 1t means that they will
not marry for q long time if they at.
tempt to cleanse dishes in water SO
hot.
Night weddings are better than
none, yet they are by no means the
best. The bride whom the sunshine
cannot fall upon is sure to experience
troublous times. Ifshe have children
they will die young.
Should bride perchance see a
coffin while being driven to the rail-
road station prior to departing upon
her wedding tour she should order the
driver to turn back and start over
again, or else she will surely meet with
bad luck.

Predicament of q Young Lady.

The news of a thrilling adventure
experienced by young lady from
Oakland near Skaggs Springs, Cal.,
has just come in. The young lady was
one Of party of twelve San Francis
cans who left the springs early in the
morning on a tramp through the
mountains. Just four miles from
Skaggs' is rock, we'll known to tour
list, as "Major's rock" which towers
nearly 100 feet high. The ambitious
girl went ahead Of the party and scaled
the rock by very dangerous path.
When the remainder of the party or.
rived she was sitting on top of the
rock thoroughly frightened, for al.
though she had reached the summit
with apparent ease her courage failed
her for the return journey and she
called loudly for assistance.
The other tourists strove in vain to
rescue her, but without avail. They
could not climb the treacherous path.
Messengers were dispatched to the
hotel and ladders and ropes were pro.
cured. After much loss of time holes
were dug in the rock and the ladders
were placed in position. But how TO
convey the woman to the ground after
they had reached her puzzled the
strong men who went to her assist
anoe. All other efforts proving futile,
big bucket was found, to which q
strong rope was fixed. Into this the
young lady was induced to sit.
The next perplexity was how to low.

ders had all they could do to hold on
themselves, Finally, however, by
great effort, the rescuers managed to
scramble on top of the rock. Then,
grasping the rope with their hands,
they lowered the bucket with its oc.
cupant amid the cheers of the onlook-
ers. The young lady, although greet.
~ frightened, was unhurt.-San Fran

the faintest possible perfume of tho

And to what use is ambergris put?
1t is an indispensable article with fine
perfumes, IS it is used to give per-
manency and lasting qualities to very
feeting scents. It is a curious fact
that the keynote or basis of "nose-
gays" or Bouquets" as handkerchief
odors are called, is not, as one might
suppose, the altar of garden flowers
or the penetrating balsams-these are
indispensable, but are not the ground.
work. That basis is always Of the
four animal odors; that is, ambergris,
musk, obtained from small musk deer
of Asia; civet, from the civet cat of
India, and castor, secretion OF the
castor beaver, now almost obsolete in
the perfume trade.
The essence of ambergris is obtained
by mixing three ounces of it with one
gallon of pure alcohol, and not till
after month is it ready for use.
This, however, is only kept for mix
ing, and is far too strong. Only when
it has entered in minute proportion
into the bouquets does it produce
those agreeable and characteristic per.

the lazy, muddy Colorado River is
like that of July in the Eastern States.
Two years ago an experienced
sportsman from Southern Illinois was
spending the winter in Yuma. He
had pair of very fine, large stag.
hounds, which the owner claimed
could run down and kill any wild hog
along the Colorado River. One day
ne took the dogs and rifle and went
down the river for nice little boar,
just right for the oven. He had not
gone thirty miles, and landing, be-:
tore he found band OF hogs and little
pigs, and turned his dogs loose on
them when out of the tules nearby
Jumped an enormous boar, mon
ster, who, with. mouth wide open,
paying no attention to the dogs, made
for the hunter. The latter drew up
his rifle and fred, but on came the
boar, the dogs nipping him at every
Jump.
The hunter fired second shot, but
on came the beast. The hunter turned
and ran for mesquite tree few
va rds distant, the hog close to his
heels. He dropped his gun, jumped
for life, grasping limb of the tree,
just as the hog grabbed his pants, and
tore one.half of them from him, but
he was safe, just out of reach. The
dogs all this while ran grabbing the
hog by the hind legs, to which the
beast paid no attention. The mad
boar seized the bark Of the tree in his
great tusks and tore it into shreds.
Finally he turned upon the dogs, in.
stantly killing one, wounded'the other
so that it died soon after. Then he
turned his attention to the tree where
the hunter sat. He guarded him I'M
til it was dark. Twice did the man
get down and try to get his rifle. but
his foe was on guard and drove him
back up the tree. During the night
the boar left. Daylight came, and so
did help. The men had hardly reached
the river and got out in their boat
when down came the old hog after
them, in vain pursuit. Louis
