Adam Aulbach, editor Of the
Wallace Press, and the leading
Populist in the Cnur d'Alene coun-
try, in an editorial discussing the
Senatorial question says: "The
Democrats are not compelled to
drink at the Populist trough,
though they are hold up to it. SEN
ator Dubois will 60 into the fight
with % solid silver men, and per-
haps three Democrats who we're
supported by the Silver Republi-
cans, which would give him 81
votes. Only FIVE more votes will
elect him. Can he secure these
from the Democrats who would not
vote for an Objectionable Populist?
The Democrats have the winning
hand as straight Democrats, but if
they bend the neck to the Populist
yoke they lose their identity"

The Mining and Scientific Press
says: Judge Baker, at Phnnix Ari-
soma, recently made . mining dc.
cision that will probably stand till
ovsrrpled. In August, '94, L. P.
Nash, located the Overlook mine,
put up one monument and his To-
cation notice, and no more. Sixty
days subsequent he returned to
complete his location and found
i. J. Horton ct al. in possession
and brandishing shotguns. Nash
brought suit, but the Judge decided
that he twas guilty of unreasonable
delay" and that defendants were
entitled to the mining claim.

the attendant is never allowed in the

WOOD BENDING.

In an account Of the wood bending

remarks that comparatively few per
sons outside the carriage and boat
building interests are aware of its ex-
tent, and but few realize that the car
riages they ride in are very largely
made of such wood-the fellies of all
their wheels are bent and made III two
parts-the framework of coaches and
heavy carriages is nearly all made of
bent stock. and not only better made.
but more cheaply, and the frames of
pleasure boats are bent, as also many
of the frames of the finest sailing
yachts Furniture, too, of many kinds.

Thonet chairs, for example, being
made entirely of wood thus treated.
The object of bending is twofold-
namely, saving Of time and stock and
stability and strength of the work
when put together-this independent

shafts are almost, if not entirely, used
now, instead of the old style, clumsy,
sawed ones. Skill in manipulating the
material is very essential. Simply the
forms to bend on and the steam box
in which to soften the wood do not
alone insure success in the operation
it is necessary to know perfectly the
stock to bend, it being so variable that
no two pieces bend alike.

JAvA's woNDRoUs ISLAND OF FIRE

CIV "A . "ONOf1OCS ISLAND Or' flfLE
The greatest natural wonder in Java,
if not in the entire world. is The justly
celebrated ''Gheko Kamdka Gumko,"
or Home of the Hot Devils" known to
the world as the Island of Fire This
geological singularity, says an article
quoted in Current Literature, is really
lake of boiling mud, situated at about
the centre of the plains of GrobOgana,
and is called an island because the
great emerald sea of vegetation which
surrounds it gives it that appearance.
The ISLAND is about two miles in cir
cumference, and is situated at dis
lance of almost exactly fifty miles from
Solo. Near the centre of this geOl0gi-
cal freak immense columns of soft, not
mud may be seen continually rising
and falling like great timbers thrust
through the boiling substratum by gil
amt hands and then again quickly with
drawn. Besides the phenomenon of
the boiling mud column there are
scores of gigantic bubbles of hot slime
that fill UP like huge balloons and keep
up a series of constant explosions, the
intensity of the defamation varying
past, so the Javanese authorities say,
there was a tall Spirelike column of
baked mud ON the west edge of the
lake which constantly belched a pure
stream Of cold water. but this has long
been oblfterated, and everything is now
a Saathfng mass of bubbling mud and
slime, a marvel to the visitors VINO
come from great distances to see lit.

LEAP YEARS.
Why we Have Them and Reasons
For omitting Them at Certain
Times

The time required for the earth to
complete its circuit around the sun is
called a solar year. The time required
by the earth to make a revolution on
its own axis is called one day. and for
convenience is divided into "a parts
or hours. The hours are divided into
so parts called minutes, and the min
utes into 60 parts called seconds.
The time, upon this basis for the
journey of the earth around the sun,
is 565 days, 3 hours. As minutes and As
seconds. We call the year 365 days,
and we see that if this was done for
four consecutive years we would be be-
hind time hours, Is minutes and II
seconds. 1t was to adjust this differ
ence that we commenced to add one
day to the year every fourth year, and
called the year leap year. By adding
this day of "a hours when we are in
reality short but % hours, Is minutes
and u seconds, we get ahead of time
A minutes and 4S seconds every four
years. This we would be doing %
times in each century, and suppose we
started with the year / in the first
century we would be % times "A min
uteS and 4S seconds, or Is hours and
40 minutes ahead of time. So to avoid
this they drop the leap year on the
centennlal year, and by so doing get
behind time 5 hours and 20 minutes
This is repeated three centennial years
and consequently at the expiration of
the fourth century we would be behind
q hours and 20 minutes, if we dropped
the leap year, but on the 400th year we
add the leap year For every 400 years
we have reckoned time we are hours
and 40 minutes ahead of time, and this
excess will amount to Is hours and 20
minutes by the year 20O0
In saying we get ahead of time, 1
mean that we get ahead in our calcula-
lions. basfng the year on the time it
requires to make the journey once
around the sun
The following, therefore will deter
mine what are and what are not leap
years: All years that can be evenly
divided by 4 Chat is, without leaving
a remainder) are leap years except
those ending with two ciphers (O0).
These must be Invisible by 400 with
out remainder, or they are not leap
years.

her chief recommendation to her lady is
the quality most highly esteemed in the
