his golden spurs and his waving ostrich

where are Cordo De Gastos and his beau

LEFT-UANDED CREATURES.
Livingstone, the Explorer, Made a
Curious Discovery.

There seems to be evidence that some
animals, at least, are left-handed. Par
rots grasp and hold food with the left
hand. Livingstone stated that lions
struck with the left paw; he held. in
deed, that all animals are left-handed.
one investigator, who has been shak-
ing hands with parrots to verify this
observation, finds that the left-handed
habit may be induced in parrots from
the fact that in offering ones finger for
the parrot to grasp it is usually that
of the right hand. The parrot, there
fore. puts his left claw forward. If a
left finger be offered, the bird will put
forward the right foot.-New York

THE VOTE WAS SECURED.
A Highlander who Would Not stand
at u Trihe.

An ex-Member of Parliament, who
contested a Highland constituency in
the sixties, tells the following anecdote:
once, after a long and fatiguing
days canvass, 1 tackled a dissenting
Minister, who was very keen upon the
subject of getting bishops out of the
House of Lords, and in pursuance of
his fayorite hobby he asked me: well,
sir, what are you prepared to do about
the bshops?'
1 was irritated and fatiGued by the
days work, and I testify muttered:
"Oh. hang the bishops"
The Minister bowed and replied:
"Well, sir, YOU go rather beyond me
there; I Gamma undertake to go alto
gether that length with you, but yo
shall haze my vote"

EARTHQUAKE SIGNS.
Various Animals That ForeteII se-
iSmic Disturbances

People who have had the opportuni-
ty of taking note of this peculiarity in
countries where earthquakes are fire.
quent are well aware of it's signific-
altce, and always prepare for a seismic
disturbance. 1t is advanced in this ex-
plaration of this sign of fear that ami
mails are able to perceive things-such
as very slight movements-which es-
cape the eye Of man; animals see these
pramonitory signs and know what to
expect, whereas man goes about his
business quite unconscious of what is
about to happen.
In Japan, it is usually the pheasants
very numerous in the classic land of
earthquakes-which give the first dan
ger signal; they cry out and rush about
in characteristic fashion, and in a few
minutes the shock is felt. Other birds
and animals, such as fowls and dogs,
also give warning signs.

AS we anticipated, the action
of the Indian Council in suspend
ing the issue of council drafts,
has put exchange on India to a
point at which gold exports to
India are possible at any time,
put the Indian Government il
the market for silver for coinage
into rupees in preparation for
the expected presentation of
gold for exchange into silver
rupees and so put up the price
of silver. Silver has risen five
cents an ounce above the lowest
price recorded for it two or three
weeks ago.
The rise in silver has further
been attributed in part to the re-
port that the directors of the
Bank of England had consented
to hold one-fifth of the banks
reserve in silver. This would
mean q holding of silver by the
Bank of England of from $780,
900, 900 to $40, 900, 900. 1t was
regarded as a part of the contri-
button the British Government
was willing to make toward re-
establishing bimetallism. But
the report that such a step was
contemplated by the Bank of
England raised such a storm of
protest that the consent of the
Bank of England directors to
such a plan, if ever made, was
promptly withdrawn. So we see
how the city of London is oppos-
ed to bimetallism and we learn
from private advices that the
Indian government has raised
objections to the re-opening of
the Indian mints to free silver
coinage. So there is little for
our bimetallic commission. or

having come home, to wait for

When we come to look it all
over we are not surprised at the
Tribune's article. 1t was evil
IDENTIFY in a very our mood when
this was written. Why, Ex-Gov-
ernor Mcconnell came in for a
share of their abuse; and he,
too, a man whom that sheet al.
ways idolized until after he had
done every dirty official trick he
ever did-if he did any. Con

that don't end it; not only the
populists, whom they always
fight; because they struck the
fatal blow to their controlling
schemes, and Mcconnell, and the
State administration and Asylum
management, but now they have
come to the conclusion that Sen
ator Heitfeld is simply q nonen-
ity. Now this last and most I'M
called for and we believe unjust,
slash, it is patent, comes from
the fact that this man Henry
Heitfeld was better appreciated
by mankind than their party
whom they sought to have elect
ed. This argues badly, indeed,
for the Tribune. If such a tran
scendant idiot could walk away
with their idol, what would a
right smart man have done to
their darling ? Beware /! Never
dare put him in field of good
stock. But all this is spite
bosh. The Tribune knows bet
ter than to think that everybody
but their very few companions
are fools, and that they carry
all the wisdom and honesty and
honor in existence. No, no,
quit that style before the people.

ions in Idaho. Tt is accessible

Beaver and Bernard creeks from
a point on the state wagon road
in the vicinity of Cape Horn.
The center of the district is a hill
seven or eight miles down Ber-
nard creek, north of the divide
between the upper Salmon and
the Middle Fork. The periphery
of the district, however, includes
the divide, and along this there
has been considerable prospect
ing.
The country rock is gray gran
lite and quartzitic and micaceous
schists, which in some layers are
strongly calcareous. The schists
occur both in series by them
selves, and as included belts, one
to one hundred feet or more
wide, in the granite. The latter
is more commonly the occurrence
on the summit of the divide,
while the schists in series are
found chiefly on the northern
slope, The bands of especial in
terest here are those in the gran
tie. They may be traced for a
mile or more, or may disappear
after q few hundred feet, seem
ing to occur as irregular, isolat
ID bodies. This appearance ma.
be due to original differentiated
n the material from which thu
GRANTEES and schists were deriv-
ed. or to included masses through
faulting, the former perhaps
being most plausible. The strike
of schists, and of the GRANTEES
where they show foliation planes,
varies 70 all points of the com
pass, N. Is deg. to 35 deg. W.,
N. go deg. E., and east and west
being most common. This vari-
alton is due to local textures,
evidences of which are constant
ly recurring. The dip of the
series in the divide is to the west
or the south usually at q high
angle.
Undergraduates and quartz
porphyrites occur in dykes
throughout a large territory. In
the immediate region examined
the quartz-porphyrites are most
common; their trend is often
with that of the states, though
occasionally across it. They, in
some instances, in proximity tc,
if not Immediately next, the ore
bearing States; in others they are
at a distance.
The ore bodies are the result
of the naturalization of certain
layers in the ores of states or
schists. Quartzitic, micacecus
and calcareous beds all carry ore
in greater or less amount. If the
one of states is narrow-one to
two feet-the entire width NAV
be more or less mineralized: in
this case the walls are granite.
In the wider belts the ore shows
in considerable deposits in some
of the layers, in others in much
less amount; in others still it
may be altogether wanting.
Evidences of assures are
slight, though in some instances
the rocks r contorted to q con-
siderable degree.
The ores are argentiferous
galena and antimonial and ar
senical sulphides, also silver
bearing. They are more or less
altered near the surface. Their
values varies greatly, but in the
assorted ore it is sufficient to
warrant shipment by pack train.
