In sight of the Erie tracks, between
Susquehanna and Great Bend, are the
Red rocks, a red cliff standing above
the Susquehanna river. Near them can
be seen traces of the grave Of beauti-
full Indian maiden, the daughter of a
famous chief She was betrothed to a
young brave, member Of her fathers
tribe, then encamped near here Her IA
ther desired her to marry the son Of the
chief Of the neighboring tribe, and the
wish Of the paternal ancestor usually
counted for something. ~
In consequence she resolved to fly to
the happy hunting grounds, - and one
night she stole noiselessly from her wig
wan, and, with the death song upon
her lips, flung herself from the high
cliff, her life's blood staining the rocks
below. And to this day they have retain
ed the reddish hue which the 14ains and
floods of century have failed to eface.
When the maiden's lover saw her
mangled corpse, he retired to a cave in
the mountains and never again was seen
alive. Forty years later his petriied
body was found in the cave by wan
dering remnant Of the tribe. Under his
body were found the long raven tresses

Exploring the Upper Niger.

After all absence of three years the
expedition under Lieutenant Hourst has
safely returned to Europe from the Nj
ger. The party assembled the Senegal
river and then carried the sections of
an aluminium boat overland to the up
per part of the Niger. On reaching this
river the pieces of the boat were put to-
gether and two native boats purchased.
In these the expedition sailed down the
Niger to Timbuktu, where stay of
ten months was made. The voyage
from Timbuktu to Lokoja, at the con-
huence of the Niger and Benue, seems
to have been arduous, but from that
point the expedition was towed by a
launch belonging to the Royal Niger
company to the coast at Wari. How
much fresh typographical information
Lieutenant Hourst's party has obtained
is not yet stated. This will depend on
the highest point reached on the Niger
Reuters message states that the expedi-
ton first met, the river Niger at
Kayes,'' but that town is on the Sene-
gal river. There can be no doubt, how
ever, that much valuable scientific in
formation was obtained, for the expedi-
ton travelled slowly and was admirably
equipped. One novelty was the use of a
photograph for reporting the native war
songs. The expedition kept peace with
the natives throughout the journey, in
which it differs greatly from some Of
those previously conducted by French
explorers in that region. Mature.

A Story of Cecil Rhoies.

Often mentioned is Cecil Rhodes dis,
like to women and the fact that he will
not allow female to serve him in any
way. He had secretary to whom he
was much attached. One day he an
nounCed the fact that he was going to
be married. The chief was thunder
struck, and after glaring at him for a
second growled out, ''Where the devil
am to get another secretary?" and then
walked out OF the room and banged the
door. His innate goodness Of heart,
however, prevailed after bit, for he
presented the bride with some lovely
diamonds, and when, soon after, he left
for England he lent the young couple
his carriages and horses, SO that the Of
Tending bride was enabled to return her
wedding calls at his expense! It never
occurred to him, however, to keep his
favorite secretary on. The mere fact Of
his marrying put that quite out Of the
pale Of possibility

Tran0VAal Gold.

Of his recent extended study of the
gold resources of South Africa Dr.
Becker says that the Transvaal republic
contains the largest gold deposits in the
world. Within Is miles of Johannes
burg there is an amount of gold, prac-
tioally in sight, estimated to be worth
s., 500, 900, 900, or nearly as much as
the entire volume Of gold coin now in
the world. The gold is extraordinarily
uniform, as uniform as coal in an Or
binary deposit, as shown by shafts
which have been sunk to depth of
1900 feet and diamond drillings which
have gone still farther At present the
gold is being taken out at the rate of
800, 900, 900 year.
The most surprising news which Dr.
Becker brings is the testimony of an
American who was formerly his assist.
ant in the geological survey, and who
is now engaged in mining in the Trans
vaal, where he has made several mil
lions of dollars The American mining
expert says to his knowledge and belief
the gold deposits, instead Of being 80
miles long the region now in sight
practically 1900 miles long, except that
in the rest Of the region later deposits
have come in over the gold. This, how
ever, will not prevent economical min
ing, but will simply delay it. Popular

THE FROZEN BREEZE.

Lover of Nature.
Did you ever see frozen breeze? You
might have seen one if you had gone
with me into the country one winter
morning.
This was the way it came to be frozen:
All night long the air had been laden
with mist. Over the fields, in the hol.
lows, all through the woods, even on
top of the hills, the fog hung heavily.
All that time the wind blew steadily,
but not fiercely, from some northern
quarter.
At nightfall the mercury fell below
the freezing point, SO that this mist, as
it drifted through the trees, was frozen
upon their branches and twigs. The
elms, the oaks and the other leaf1ess
trees took their ice coating quite evenly,
but the thick, impenetrable masses of
the needles Of the pine trees were COW
cred noticeably only upon the sides to-
ward the north or northwest, from which
the wind came. The strong, steady
breeze bent the branches to leeward,
while it was icing them, and when the
wind went down in the morning they
all remained just there, leaning to the
southwark, iced and frozen to immova-
bility, but looking just as if the wind
were still steadily blowing.
Even in the afternoon, when the rain
began to fall and the wind came from
quite another quarter, that north wind
of the night before still remained white
and frozen over the piny woods, the
pale, rigid corpse Of a thing once keenly
alive.-Listener in Country.

A TlGERlSH TURKISH MOB.

Murderous Bludgeon Men In the Streets
of Constantinople.
Such men as the bludgeon men one
does not often see in the streets of Con-
stantinople. Of the better class of Turks
there were none among them. They
were of class like the wharf rats and
longshoremen of western lands. They
were of all shades Of color, from the
white skinned Lac and Circassian to the
brown and hook nosed kurd and the
coal black Nubian from Africa. Their
faces were a study of fearful passions.
There were faces scanned and Scared
like the head Of a fighting bulldog; faces
distorted by malice and greed; faces
scared, as by fire, case hardened in ig-
norance Of all except vice and ferocious
as an angry tiger. Some of those faces
burned their way into my memory and
remained for days, haunting revela-
tion of brutal instincts and beastly de-
sires which made one wonder how it
was possible to have lived in safety for
weeks in a city containing such men.
These men were not armed, in the
common sense of the word. Some of
them had revolvers, and the most of
them had knives. But they seldom used
either, for awkward questions might be
raised if the police were called to &C.
count for failing to arrest armed civil
ians on the streets. Carrying ak helves,
pickax handles, heavy clubs, like base
ball bats; jagged fragments of broken

BILE. Their silence by day was almost as
terrible as their bowls by night. They
would be seen going along the street,
when they would meet an Armenian
who had ventured to attempt to reach
his home. Without word they would
break in his skull and go on their way,
entirely unmoved and hardly having
spoken loud word. If resistance was
offered, they had only to say, ''The
Giaours resist" and a horde of their
fellows would come running from all
directions to destroy one who had prov
ed his seditious quality by daring to re.

IN HOLLAND.

Some Curiosities of Etiquette In the Meth.
erlands.
An unmarried girl in Holland always
takes the right arm of her escort, while
the married one selects the left side of
her husband. So deeply has this custom
entered into the life Of Hollanders that
at a wedding the bride enters the church
on the right side of the groom, the
young wife returning on the left side of
her husband when the ceremony has
been performed. No unmarried lady in
this country can dream of going to
church, a concert or any other place Of
public assemblage without the escort Of
parents or male members of the family.
She cannot take a walk, pay visit or
go shopping unaccompanied by her
mother or some married lady friend.
The Holland young lady does not go
to the theater with the gentleman who
has been introduced to her week be-
fore, neither does she vary her beau to
suit her dress or complexion. Unmarried
daughters are chaperoned to all places
of amusement. Even dancing parties are
interspersed with songs, 1ecitations
etc., for the amusement of elders of the
family who sit around tables socially
slipping their coffee, wine or other favor
ed beverage, while the young members
glide over the waxed floors to the fitful
strains of music. Here the young must
make the best Of their opportunities, for
when it pleases the parents to seek the
quiet solace Of the house the daughters
also quit the gayety Of the ballroom

The Mormon Bishop Was Frightened at
the Railroad Speed.

The Mormon Bishop Was Frightened g
the Railroad Speed.
Speed was once demonstrated on a
western road in a fashion to curl the
hair Of at least one old Mormon bishop.
The church man considered it q phenom-
enon and got Off the train as quickly as
he could. He had bullwhacked across
the plains in the early days, and, strange
to say, had never ridden on 9 railroad
train. until the time when he entered
upon his trip from Green river to San
Francisco. The speed was, therefore, a
revelation to him He had never before
seen anything SO swift, and he was
scared About IL miles from Ogden he
asked the conductor for the time of day
and was told that it was 1885. He inn
pressed this time forcibly on his mind.
Now, for wonder, the western con.
nection at Ogden was quickly made,
and after the lapse of but a few minutes
the San Francisco bound travellers were
on their, way Calsorniaward. Ogden
had been left behind only a few miles,
and the train was whooping along at a
behind time rate Of speed, when the old
bishop, frightened and trembling, dared
to ask the conductor what was the time
Of day.
If you have travelled westward, you
know that at Ogden the time changes,
and San Francisco time, one hour ear
lier, is adopted. The conductor had San
Francisco time, and he said:
ut is 7:1O-ten minutes after ~
The old bishop, previously haunted
by dread OF impending destruction be-
cause of the horrible rate Of speed at
which he was being whirled through
space, rose with a wild cry and made
for the door:
''Lemme off!' he cried. 1T was 35
minutes after an hour ago, an we're
goin SO fast we are goin OYSTER than
time can count itself. Lemme offp'
Had he really been going as fast as
the old man had believed, he would
surely have been beaten to bits as he
jumped from the train. As it was, he
was only rolled something like halt
mile and was carried back to Ogden on
hand car.-Chicago Record.
