The two men following Towne drove
two oxen. On top of the mountain
range these were killed and some OF the
meat was dried. From the top Of these
mountains, looking back, they could see
black dots far out over the desert,
crawling along sluggishly and ant-like.
There were other dots that lay on the
white sands quiet and still.
In the horrible march of the next day
Brands two children died in his arms.
With his hands he scooped grave for
them In the hot sands, and, lifting his
wife on his shoulder, walked on, hour
by hour, until he began to race, ana
the woman had to guide him toward
his objective point. the western SIDE Oh
the Argus range.
One day there staggered into n little
mining camp in Eastern California
tall, skeleton-like man, bearing deau
woman in his arms. He sat down by
the side of a little stream where men
were washing for gold with cradles.
When they came to him he snarled IKE
n wild beast and would not let them
touch the woman. 1t was Brand.
Finally he was subdued by force,
and. realizing his condition, the miners
gave him food and drink, and IN
week he was well. The story he told
was startling. A rescue party was
made up, which hurried eastward.
Along the trail which Brand had tray
orsed and scattered on either side they
found the dry and mummied remains
of thirty men, women and children. as
late as 1860 bones were still found iar
south of the camp on the mesa. Some
of them were within 300 yards OF
spring. which they had failed to reach.

BIGGEST GRAVE MONUMENT.
Daniel Moriarity Starts 375-Tonner fol-
His First Wife.

Daniel Moriarity, a retired New Or
leans grocer, now living in Alameda
County, California, is a happy man at
last, or nearly happy, for after visit
ing all the quarries and cemeteries in
the United States. he has found peo-
pie willing to fulfill the desire of his
heart, and he will soon be the owner of
the largest graveyard monument in the
country, and probably the largest in
the world. 1t will weigh 100000 lbs,
and when everything has been paid for
it will have cost over $4,000.
The monument is not for himself,
however. 1t is to be erected in honor
of his first wife, to whom he says his
present affluence is due, and after her,
in honor of his father, Joseph Moriari-
ty, who died in New Orleans in 1858.
His first wife has been dead eighteen
years, and Mr.. Moriarity has taken
unto himself another and moved to the
Pacific coast. He came to America
when a boy, and got into the grocery
business. His boss was a widow Mary
Farrell by name, who fell in love with
him and took him into partnership for
better or worse and the success of the
grocery business.
Daniel Moriarity Eaxed rich. Mrs
Moriarity gave herself up to domestic
duties and died. Daniel grew richer
and richer, but in the days of his pros
perity he remembered the cause there
of. and with the aid of Mrs. Moriarity
No. he determined upon a fitting me-
mortal When the plan was all worked
out, it was found that the memorial
would.he large enough to stand for his
father, too.
Here are the parts and their dimen-
slons: On a foundation of fifty-foot
piles there rests a concrete block thir-
ty feet square and six feet deep. Next
comes four slabs, two of them 30xS
1-2X1 and the other two 13XS Xxi.
These will be laid so as to form a
square 13X13, which will be filled with
concrete. Then comes the base stone,
14X14X3, weighing about fifty tons.
Next are two courses of granite about
twenty tons each, which support the
die stone, eight feet high by six feet in
diameter, panneled ON four sides, at
the joining of which will be granite
columns with Corinthian capitals. Up
on each column will be a statue carved
in Wesley granite-Faith, Hope, Chair
ty, Temperance.
Then comes the great shaft of Barre
granite four feet at the base and ta-
pering to two feet. This will be sur
mounted by a simple granite cross,
making the total height of the monu-
ment seventy feet.
The lot on which it will stand faces
Central avenue in Metairie Cemetery,
New Orleans. 1t is the finest situa-
ton within the grounds, and is the one
which was chosen by the South to re-
ccive the remains of jefferson Davis

AN EMPERoR's WARDROBE.
Kaiser's Williams is Probably the Most
Extensive in the World.

1t is not easy for the average person
to form an idea of the dimensions %
the wardrobe of him of Germany. Some
sort of Il list of his possessions IN thls
respect has recently been made out,
and from this it appears that, TO peglh
with, his Majesty possesses UNIFORM
of every regiment in the Prusslan army
with the helmets, caps, epaulets,
swords, etc, en- suite. Over and above
this, the Emperor, being the head OF an
endless number of regiments in Baya-
ria, Wurtemberg, SaXony, Baden anu
Hesse, Il complete uniform of each oil
these hangs in bis clothes presses. But
this is not all. Two rooms at the pal
ace at Berlin are entirely filled with
uniforms of the regiments in Austria,
Russia, Sweden, England, Italy ana
other countries which belong TO
William IL. TO these must be added
the uniforms of Admiral of the British
and Swedish fleets.
There are all the ordinary suits for
morning, noon and night during the
warm and cold seasons; the hunting
suits and uniforms, which latter the
Emperor has introduced for the use of
himself and his courtiers; the uniforms
of the English and German yacht clubs.
lawn tennis clothes, etc. 10 each suit
belong special hats, gloves cravats and
canes. The Emperor's body linen is,
again, specially made to go with the
various suits of clothes, and there are
whole packing cases full of tie-pinS,
rings, studs, etc
The keeper of this private "mu-
scum" who is, as a rule, Il superan-
nuated valet, has under him a number
of men we'll versed in the art of the
needle. These do what little mendinS
there is to be done, in the way of sew
ing on buttons, braidS and ornaments.
But though his Majesty has so extcn-
sive a wardrobe, he is most careful and
parSimoniouS concerning it, and the
uniforms especially are treated with
great consideration. New collars and
cuffs are added three or four times TO
the ordinary uniforms before coat is
done WITH" and not an article of
clothing is ever wasted. The German
and foreign orders in the Emperor's
possession are estimated at about 50,
10000, and when the travelling EN-.
peror' goes abroad there are among
his luggage some iron cases containing
a selection of orders representing the
sum of $15,000- Westminster Budget.

A Wonderful Drug.

All through Eastern Asia plant
grows which is called ginseng. 1t is
indigenous to Japan, China, Korea and
Manchuria. At its full growth it stands
about a foot to foot and half high.
The flower is purple and develops into
a bunch of brilliant red berries. The
plant grows wild and is in this state
the most valuable, being extremely
rare, probably because it is so eagerly
sought after. Indeed, it is worth more
than it's weight in gold. The cultiva-
ted plant is less costly, but is the one
Indispensable drug of the regions
where it grows. The fields are very
carefully guarded, watchmen being
stationed on high perches and kept on
duty day and night, lest thieves break
through and steal the precious vegeta-
BILE. 1t takes six years for the plants to
reach their full maturity, then the roots
are used incidentally and are consid-
is said that scarcely a dose is pre-
pared in these countries in which GIN
seng does not appear in one form or
other. The preparation of this decotion
is curious process. 1t is cooked in
dish resembling our farina kettle, be-
ing a double boiler with hollow
cover. The root is placed inside of the
pot The hollow cover is filed with
rice, and the whole is baked over
brisk fire. When the rice is done the
ginseng tea or drink is supposed to be
sufficiently cooked and is drank with
the utmost faith in its efficacy.

James Bennett, Aged Twenty Four, of
 Waterbury, Loses His Life.
 Glastonbury, Aug. 31.-A drowning accident occurred Sunday afternoon in the river on the east side about one hundred rods below the paper mill. James Bennett, in company with four companions, was in a sailboat which was tied ill the river near the paper mill Bennett was under the influence of liquor and getting into the small rowboat in the rear of the sailboat, fell into the water with his clothes on. He climbed into the sailboat, and then, al though his companions advised him not to, he removed his clothes and went into the water again from the rowboat. He said he was going to swim down to where several boys were in the water, a distance below the sailboat. When near the boys he was seen to go down, He came up once and then went down for the last time.
 It is thought that he was seized with cramps. The body has not come to the surface Bennett was twentyfour years old He belonged in Waterbury, and worked at the cutlery works at Naubuc.
 Bennett is not known in Waterbury by any of the families of that name living there.

WEST SIDE CLUES OUTING.

The West Side clubs moonlight ex- cursion last evening, their third this season, was another success. The Mar garet left the dock about o'clock and landed at Pawson park, where those who wished could enjoy the dancing. The boat then sailed out in the sound for about three hours, then returning to the park and arriving in the city about l o'clock.
 On the evenings of September and 9 the club will give an autumn carnival on it's lawn side of the club house, cor ner of Howard avenue and Putnam street. On the first night Wednesday, an entertainment will be given, follow ed by dancing. On Thursday evening a white duck masquerade will be giv- en. All of the clubs social functions are enjoyable, and without a doubt the carnival will eclipse them all.
