THE RIVER OF UNTRUTH.
BY WINFIELD CLARKE.

Across Arizona from east to west
like a great artery, flows tine Giia river.
Down from the north comes the Ilassa-
yampa and empties into it. There is an
odd tradition connected with the Hassa-
yampa. 1t is that he who drinks OF its
waters will never thereafter be able to
tell the truth. Politicians sometimes
come long distances, it is said, Just out
of curiosity, and if, percbance, found
drinking OF the water, claim thatthey
had heard it was beneficial to the liver.
Newspaper men fee from its vicinity
as they would from a plague; yet it is
only a tradition and no person knows
whence it sprung.
Some years ago, George Washington
Thompson, u most carefully reared and
altogether exemplary young man, came
10 California from an eastern state. lie
came for the purpose of making his
fortune. In this he has been successful,
but oh! at what fearful cost. The
story is 4 sad one, indeed. .
Previous TO his coming to California,
and, in fact. for some time thereafter,
George Washington Thompson had
never even heard of tine Ilassayampa
river. How different might lis fate
have been had he never heard Of it.
In choosing the mining conn any pro-
motion business as an occupation Mr.
Thompson was actuated more, perhaps,
by the thought that lie could thus
achieve sooner the goal of his ambition,
than by the. loftier thought Of the good
he might DO thelnining interests oi the
great aud growing west. But he was
young and tired by all those various de-
sires which crowd the mind of tie
young.
His first venture in the mining com-
pany promotion business was also his
his last one. He secured an option upon
some very promising mining claims IN
Arizona. Some wealthy men in Los An
geles. under the spell Of his glowing en-
thusiasm, having joyfully consented to
back him, he set out upon the journey
10 Arizona to examine the property and
report 10 his hackers.
Chance threw George Washington
Thompson into the company ofan elder
" cattleman from the ArIvaira coun-
try soon after he left Los Angeles. They
occupied the same seat in the smoker.
The cattleman conceived a violent dis
gust for the young pan because lac
smoked cigars which the trainhoY had
for so1a Ccorrc bonrbt six of tliese
alleged cigars, for which he raid . half

The earliest spoons were made of
horn. Specimens of ivory and bone
have been found in the abodes of the
cave dwellers and lake jewellers all over
Europe. Spoons of gold and silver are
mentioned as having been used at
Nero's table. In Saxon times every
guest brought his own knife and spoon,
the host providing a towel or cloth for
wiping each at the close of the repast.
