Connected With the Capitol.
The Capitol is connected with the library
building by subway a quarter Of a mile
in length, through which books can be sent
within few minutes from the time of be-
ing ordered. This subway is large enough
for man to walk through and extends
from the library tc a small room in the
rear of the old Hall of Representatives
This subway is provided with q tramway
that will carry parcels to the size of a
bound volume of newspapers. The libra

matte tube and telephone with both houses

sentatives will have every facility in Sc
curing books that they now enjoy while
the library is within the Capitol building.
The library was designed with az great
a regard for utility as for beauty, and the
art of preserving and readily referring
to books within It was closely studied. The
windows have been SO sealed as to make
them dust proof no fire can ever spread
in the building. which will be kept at an
equal temperature throughout, and there
are no leoges on which dust or other dirt

A little over two years ago, strslg-
er named Anderson appeared at Seat
tie. lie was, in the yernacular OF the
street, busted" While in these des-
perate circumstances he met Charles
f. Wallin, a well-known shoemaker.
Wallin liked the man. and, although In
poor circumstances, took Anderson IN
and gave him a home until he found
an opening on one of the Pacific Coast
Steamship Company's big steamers
and vert on the Alaska run. After
several trips he had the mining fever.
A partnership was formed with
Yukon miner, who had money enough
for two outfits, and the men made for
the Yukon. They were soldiers OF
fortune for a time, drifting ground
from one camp to another. and finally
we're attracted to the Klondike region
by the report OF a great discovery.
They took up claims side by side on
Bonaza Creek. On these claims both
built and began to mine industriously
for the yellow metal which seemed so
plentiful. Anderson worked hard, aud
soon developed one OF the biggest
bonanzas on the creek. During his
hard work at the mine he had not for
gotten his old friend Wallin. Recent
ly he telegraphed him that he would
be in Seattle on a designated day He
came. and in return for the good turn
the shoemaker did him, Anderson has
decided him half the mine on Bonanza
h.a 10
and for which he was offered $50. 900
by San Francisco company while In
that city.

Ter in Cosmopolis, by the extraordi-
nary power OF observation OF French
friend OF mine, who, when in 1855 the
queen and the Empress Eugenie enter
ed the Grand Opera at Paris together
and were received with immense ap-
plause, turned to his neighbor, an Eng
lishman, and said: Look at the differ
ence between your queen and our em-
press They had both bowed gracious

press looked round TO see II there was

But your queen-a born queen-sat

Most extraordinary is the expertness
OF Hlndoo jugglers and acrobats. One
who moves about perched upon a single
long stick Is the latest novelty. This
performer is mounted on bamboo pole
about fifteen feet high. the top OF
which is tied to a glrdle worn round
his waist. A small cushion Is fastened
few feet down the pole, which acts
as leg rest. The acrobat hops around
a large space in the livelies. way. utter
ing cheerful shouts and accompanied by
the tapping Of a curious drum He al
so executes a sort OF dance. and goes
through a little pantomlme. 1t is a
marvellous feat of equilibrium. To walk
on a pair of stills as high as this would
be a performance worthy of exhibition
on our vafiety stage. But to hop
around on one is quite another thing
The same man can do many other
wonderful things He appears abso-
lutely perfect in the art OF balancing
He can balance very light stick on
his nose and another one on his
chin When balancing these two
sticks, end on end. he will
make one revolve In one direction and
the other in the other. He puts one
hand on a fiat, circular stone, throws
his feet up into the air, and balances
a stick on each of them. At the same
time he revolves rapidly on the pivot
formed by his arm and the stone.

BRONZE OF LAKE-DwELLRRs.
Used for Making All Sorts of OrnA-
ments,

ments.
Bronze was very extensively used by
the Swiss lake-dwellers in the manu-
facture of a great variety of things
useful and ornamental, such swords,
knives, fish hooks, javelin heads, pins,
needles, bracelets, etc, says the An
tlquarian. Their bronze swords were
similar to those found in other parts
of Europe of the same era, rather short,
broad and thick; some plain, others
highly ornamented. Their bronze
knives are OF two patterns, some very
large and curved, and thick on the
convex edge. These were evidently in
tended for hard usage, probably IN har-
yesting, for we know that these peo-
pie raised barley, wheat and flax. The
smaller knives were Of finer workman
ship, averaging about five inches IN
length, very thin, and now, after haV-
ing lain buried in the mud of the lake
for twenty centuries or more, stlll
have fine, cutting edges. The Jayelin
and spear heads resemble those OF no
man and Etruscan make, and perhaps
many of them were forged in Rome
and welded by the Roman invaders OF
HelYetia. The bronze fish hooks are al
most identical in form with those OF
iron used by us today, having at the
end of the shaft a fat head to retain
the line, and sharp point and barb.
They are recovered in great quantities
The needles of bronze are very much
like those OF bone, and rather heavier.
The pins are Of all sizes and many
patterns, and were employed princi-
pally as ornaments. They range in
length from two to fifteen inches, and
some Of them must have been beautiful
when new. Specimens of them are
seen finely engraved with fancy figures
their entire length; some with fiat
ornamental heads, others surmounted
by balls OF other designs an inch OF
more in diameter. The bronze OF
which they We're made was suscepti-
Bile Of high polish and Of yellow color
glistening like gold Many OF the brace
let's are quite plain, others are most
elaborately engraved and beautifed
Bronze buttons were in general use
by the lake people.

RAMER AS A STORY TELLER.

H. J. Banner, of Canyon creek, Gils county, one of the largest owners and shippers of cattle in that section, ar. rived Tn town Dec. 19. Mr. Banner, like majority of the cattlemen, is feeling very good, having enjoyed Il prosperous year, and after payiug all debts and striking @ balance, he has money to throw at the bir,ls.
 He reports that everything in his section is all right, and that for three days previous tO his departure from home peace and harmony had prevailed aud that every man, woman and child in the neighborLood wus enjoying sweet contentment. Shortly before leaving he had the pleasure of attend ing Fl dance at the abode of Huse Kyle, at which the ladies were bewitching, the refreshments sumptuous, and the dancing divine. The guests departed in the morning from the scene of rev. elry with smiles as long as the moral law.
 Col. Ellison has won a lasting repu- tntion as bear hunter He recently killed bear that weighed 1140pounds, aud of the whole carcas there Was only HOO pounds of lard, the remaining 4U pounds being meat, and all of that ten. derloin. In the fight the colonel lost 17 dogs and hundred or so rounds of ammunition, but he has repaired the damage. and IS fortified with fresh pack of hounds and his arsenal replen- ished with powder and ball. He is now prepared for any emergency in the bear liue and invites correspond- ence from all baid headed men who might derive benefit from the free ap- pllcation of ''bar's lie" This is Ramrr's bear story and, nltLongh he is usnalIy truthful man. se viii pot v"uch Tor 1t.
