Diainonds n m Extinct Volcano.

An interesting discovery from . geo. logical point ef view was recently made by an explorer in the mountains of Wit zies flock, Natal On the summit of an extinct voIcano, on the edge of lake that occupies the crater, soundings re- vealed q layer of sand iuelosing small diamonds. It would be interesting to know whether these diamonds were there accidentally-that is, as the re- suit of washing operations carried on by the natives--or whether this discov- cry corresponds to an actual mine of diamonds. for the hills of Witzies flock are not situated ill regions known to be diamond bearing. On the last hypoth- esis the presence of precious stones ill the crater of volcano would doubtless throw some light on tho formation of the gems ill nature.-tsenie Civil

CUNNING OF THE LEFT HAND
Some of the Advantages That Are Pos

 Asslhiidexttgeas men and women, CT those who can use either right or left hand with equal facility, are not near ly so frequently met with as might at first be snpposed--in fact, they are quite rare. This double faculty is, however, much more frequently met with among butchers and sailors than ill any other walks of life.

 In view of the many advantages de- rived from the ability to use both hands equally well many people have often expressed surprise ab the action of eda- cational authorities i'll insisting on the use of only tho right hand instead of trying to develop all equal skill ia the other. They all stick to the right hand ed idea, however, and all old resident of FranLford. noted for his ambidex- trousness, is still mourning the loss of q prize at school through the use of lis left hand in writing, although he was equally sl-illfnl as 2 penman with his right.
 The benefits derived from the use of both hands were e1eellently illustrated in the experience of two carpenters who lived in Ffankfard some years ago. Their nanes were Cross and Walton, and the former was right handed, the latter left handed As one was also very tail and 6he other very snort, they made curious couple, but they always worked together laying Aoers aaa pat ting up jeiners work i'll bail6

There is apparently slight front light of prosperity in view, but the people have been so deeply buried in the cargo of diversity and want that the mere glimmer of prosperity does not satisfy them. But the Re publicans say that the sun has to rise before 1t can reach it's zenith. This, as metaphor, is true. But the Republican party has had noth- ing to do with even this apparent prosperity The fine agrienItural outlook is all that promises Us any change, in the SouSh. and the ad- ministration, by it's legis1asAaa for trusts, synaieates and jobs, has se- yerely beclouded that.
 Last year bad crops i'll Arkansas retarded her progress very much, and now she has the promise of a fair crop, and it makes her people feel better, and if nothing initiates against them from this on this year they will be in fair shape, but not an iota of it is traceable to Mckinley prosperity; that is and obstruction.
 A country like ours, full of varied resources, can not be kept down. If 1t could, the present iniquitous fed eral legislation would certainly do if.

fLaSKA GOLD.

1t seems that the Alaskan gold mines or rather, gold dirt, is 3 good Foundation for genuine American enthusiam, but like all great under takings, to reach and realize that new Fl Dorado involves vast amount Of labor and . great deal of hazard But that is just the entice- ment 10 put Yankee capital, eun- hing and industry al work, and 3 you need not doubt but that Uncle Sans people will get there with all feet and hands, and ample i'm plements and appliances to make paying success of it.
 If the gold is there, men from Alaska to the Cuff of Mexico will find way to mine it and bring it here, and the little thing of national domain is not going to cut any fig nre in it. Uncle Sam's boys don't care much whether 1t is on his ground or on John Bulls There has been a disputed boandrg there for years, and that is all that our thrifty and daring people want, to give them a show They will take the gold while the slow Eng lisbman is sticking over some in tricacies of diplomacy, and settle all disputed rights afterwards. No slow arbitration nor inquisitiye commission is going to retard their movements. These adyenturers think that shis is going to prove a solution of the vexed currency ques- tion. and if the gold is there in half the abundance as reported to be, it may do 1t.

A Dog Motor.

Out in California there is dog named
Gyp, and am quite sure you will agree
with me that Gyp earns his living. His
owner built dog motor--that is, n ma
chine for pumping water for the cattle.
When Gyp was put to work in this dog
motor, at first she did not know what to
do. She ran so fast that she became ex-
hausted and had to be lifted out The
next time she did little better. After a
time she would slip into the motor and
start to work OF her own accord. At first
she would pump the water until it ran
over and out of the pipes, but she does not
do that now. She watches the tank, and
when 1t is full she stops. Now when she
goes to the motor she look( in the trough
to see how much must be pumped and
goes to work.
AS soon as the water has reached the
right level she stops When Gyp sees the
cattle coming, she Immediately goes TO the
drinking trough, and if it is not filled uI
she starts to work and the remarkable
thing Is that she stays in the motor to be
ready to prevent the trough's being dry
You can imagine how hard Gyp has to
work Each stroke Of the pump puts
about quart of water in the trough
Sometimes Syp pumps over 200 gallons OF
water without stopping her work.
