The SpOutiug OF > Whale.

The whale does not discharge water,
but only its breath; this, however, in
rushing up into the air hot from the
animals body has the moisture con-
densed to form sort OF rain. and the
colder the air. just as in the ease of our
own breath, the more marked the re-
suit. When the spout is made with the
blowhole clear above the surface Of the
water it appears like u sudden jet Of
steam from q boiler. When effected,
as it sometimes is, before the blowhole
reaches the surface, q low fountain rs
from the street fire plug is formed, and
when the hole is close to the surface 1t
the moment q little water is sent up
with the tail jet Of steam, The cloud
blown up does not disappear Mt once,
but hangs little while, and Is often

UP FROM THE RANKS.


Htlvhtee VINO Are COmpot0ut WIN DnVoA-
dsr-straps in Two Years
THE number Of men who enter the
army with a view to secure promotion,
outside Of those who have relatives In
the service, is limited to much small.
er number than Is generally supposed,
says Harper's Weekly.
The enactment Of the law allowing
enlisted men Of any grade to apply for
examination for . commission removed
all incentive for applicants to strive for
the lower noncommissioned grades, .
most serious defect in the law. 1t Il in
keeping with the legislation advocated
by Mr.. Proctor during his term Of Of
fee, relative to the gradual elimination
Of the old soldier, and his replacement
by a better class of young men, who
were to be secured by holding out -
bait promotion from the ranks.
The large number applying for ex-
animation at present would naturally
lead to the supposition that Mr.. Proc
tors object was surely being accom-
plished, but such is not the fact.
The enlisted force of the army Is to-
day composed of no better men than II
was ten or twelve years ago; in fact, .
comparison results favorably to the old
soldier. The men who arc now being
examined for promotion do not in any
sense represent the great body Of en-
listed men of our service.
They in reality re present class con-
sisting OF about one-twcntieth Of the en-
listed force, who have nothing in COM
mon with the other nineteen-twen-
tieths, and Who are fully alive to the
advantages .acy possess over the West

The cnIistcl nan of the army, es-
pecially the Oil ,'.liers, look upon
these III n as favored class-and IA
vored they are in many ways during
their pre- ,itory two years service.
The soldier reasons, and justly, that
If the foar years of preparation at
West Point are necessary to fully equip
the cadet for the requirements Of his

to suppoio that a man of ordinary in

The kitchens of tropical countries.
such as are to be found in our Spanish
American lands, are like cells, from the
thickness of the stone walls-often two
or three feet deep-and the projecting,
omnipresent veranda, which gives a
grateful shade, and which looks out on
court. The cell resemblance is en-
HANGED by the iron bars at the windows
and the heavy double doors, which lool,

Mr.. sLuDoE, THE MEDIUM.
The Poet Browning Detected an Imposi-
tIOn ON HIS Wife.

SpW Ou h1io WIG.
Mr.. Frederick Greenwood. in his per-
sonal recollcctions, written for the
''Realm," tells the following story:
Everybody who lives with books has
heard that Robert Browning's 'Sludgc,
the Medium reflected upon Home, and
most people have also heard that the
celebrated creature succeeded in bring
ing Mrs. Browning under his influence
completely. But the trick that unde-
ceived her 1--WE must suppose) is not SO
well known. It may have got into
print, but, il SO, !, for one, have never

his tea-party way, an agreeable sort of

and seances there; and said the poet,
casting vague look about the room to
express his bewilderment, 4 don't know
how it was. l did my best, but little

Wishes running out to embrace the
promise, he began to hint that some day
he would bring the little ones spirit
into her presence. But he was slow in
performing this promise-naturally;f for,
otherwise, he would have lost the ad.
vantage Of an excited expectation,
often stimulated and as often baffled.
At last an evening was named when
the mothers yearning should be
satisfied. In the customary way, light
was shut out of the room when the
three sat down, and the usual rap.
pings and questionings and invoca.
tions went on for . time, and then
then the child's spirit was to ap.
pear. And, sure enough, there did
arise above the edge Of the table some.
thing that was whittier than the dark,
that seemed to have . motion of its
own and tho luminousness of living
thing, and that might veritably be
what poor Mrs. Browning fancied IL.
But, conscious Of her trembling state Of
mind. her husband was in another

sprang up, dashed my arm across the
table, and took hold of-what do you

Browning finished the story-after so

in a mining way.
Mr.. Moon, who is known
to be a very active prospector,
has recently made a discovery
about three miles east of here,
mention of which has already
been made in the FREE PRESS.
He staked two claims, the Car
RE and the Curlew, on the lead,
while the Amazon and Ken
lucky on the west were taken
up respectively by w. A.
Rend of Butte and Charles
Wentworth of Spokane. The
eastern extension of the lead
was secured by w. J. Ross.
On the Curlew, which crosses
the divide between Big Creek
and Lake creek Cor, so as to
be clearer), which sits squarely
on the divide between the
Clearwater and Salmon, the
quartz ledge is exposed for
nearly 100 feet in width, and
from here on the surface Mr..
Moon has obtained the crafty.
ing assay of $50 in gold and
silver. Like the Big Buffalo
group this property is SO locat.
ed that it can be opened by a
tunnel on the vein, and there is
ample water power to drive
machinery and plenty of timber
for mining purposes. Stand
ing on the Curlcw lode Buffalo
Hump shows up distinctly just
twenty-five degrees north of
west. The Tellurium, Colum.
bia and Union groups of mines
are all visible from this point.
Messrs. Moore and Wagner
helieve that Reno, being 30 &C
cessible from Buffalo, will
eventually become a perma-
nent residential spot, and with
It's excellent water power facil-
ties and promising tributary
mining properties, it must
figure prominently in the area
of development now dawnin9
upon central Idaho.

POLAR BEAR AND wALRus.


strange Association Existing Between the
Two Animals. 80
Old voyagcrs in Behring sea tell Of .
strange association between the wal.
rus and the polar bear. The walrus
furnishes the principal food Of this
great carnivore, which is his deadliest
foe. in fact, yet to see them together,
as they frequently are encountered,
one might think they were boon COM
panions. Lying upon the field ice will
often be seen patches Of walrus con-
tanning from thirty to fifty, and with
each Of these groups will be found the
polar bear. They all are apparently
resting together in the happiest sort Of
unity. Occasionally q walrus flops into
the water and sinks leisurely into the
depths, while others will be seen
emerging therefrom and climbing up
on the ice.
The bear becomes hungry and de.
cides he will dine with the walrus that
day. He rises to his launches and sways
himself heavily upon oil tours. After
. yawn and stretch he saunters to the
nearest walrus and swings his power
full paw in q crushing blow ON its
head, instantly killing the animal. He
then proceeds leisurely TO mako COM

ject Of his selection. This perform-
ance, apparently. does not startle the
others. They continue to bask un.
disturbed, seemingly indifferent to the
int Of their courade and awaiting
their turn like stoics. The female wal.
rus with young, however, does not toll.
crate the presence Of the bear. She
regards him with meritsd suspicion;
and promptly takes to the water Will

There are some things ABOUT the
negro character, SAID southern man
as reported by the Chicago Tribune,
(which you folks can never understand
because you don't see that peculiar
character as closely as we DO First
and foremost, it is next to impossible
to get good continuous service out of
the negro. Whether as river rousta
bout, farm hand, or general workman
in business employment in the cities
he's naturally restless creature. One
Atlanta man, who had gone into this
branch thoroughly and compared notes
for many years with people in different
southern states, claimed that about
three holidays week was the usual
quota of the colored hand, and he traces
this propensity centuries back to the
heart of Africa, where the savage the
ology for unknown ages has taught,
and in some interior tribes still teaches,
the doctrine of work and rest alternat-
Ing by successive days. Hence this
propensity is all legitimate race heri-
tage. His father had negro from in
terror Africa, a big man of his tribe,
and he caused small panic ON the
plantation by inaugurating u revolt
against six days of labor a week on
religious grounds. No matter what his
own necessities or those of his family
may be the average colored man to.
day in Dixie, so he says, is good for two
or three days rest in week. Nomat.
ter what the exigencies of harvest it's
well-nigh impossible to hold higl in line
on continuous labor. With the south
practically dependent on this class Of
help it leaves that region under big
industrial cloud, which nothing but
the introduction of white blood will
remove"
