AN ATHLETIC CoACHMAN.

John, I'd like to know what makes
your back so straight" said a rich man
to his cOachanan the other day, land how
do you stand the fatigue of sitting SO
beautifully erect while you drive for
hours at a stretch?" The coachman
blushed with pleasure as he led his mas
ter to a light and airy corner of the car
riage house. "I'll show you the kind of
exercise l a k every day. SIR" he said,
$50 as to be a credit to your livery and
your eQuipage and yourself and lady"
The man then lay down on his stomach
and drew upward his body and his legs
until he formed a v. he point OF which
his abdomen-alone touched the
ground. II do this two hundred times O
day. sir" he said. 1T gives correct car
riage. " Then on parallel bars, he dipped.
"One hundred of these daily; sir. expand
the chest n give a robust grace to the
upper arms and shoulders" He put his
arms. well stiffened, at his sides and then
slowly raised them till the hands met
over his head. II do about five hundred
OF that movement for a chest ~broadener
also for straighteners." He then nearly
touched his back with the crown Of his
head and quite touched his chest with
his chin. "That straightens the neck.
sir. and gives the head a proper poise.
And so on, sir, I continue for an hour or
two every morning, and I don't believe
as long as I keep it up I'll ever lose my
figure"

Under This Name a Claim In
City Limits Was Located.
EMERY PLACER
II open to Entry, a Good Thing Has
Been Over Looked For
Years.

A location notice bearing the names Of
William Guedelhofer, John G~uedelhofer,
H. A. Sager, w. H. Hill and Albert Gins
berg n dated January l. was filed for
record in the office of the county clerk to-
day, and in view Of the fact that the prop
cry 1t represents is located within the
city limits, it shows that the locators have
either found a good thing or a bad one.
The further fact that the claim was locat-
ed on the first day of the year indicates
hat if it was open to location a good
thing was overlooked for many years. The
claim is a full one, being 600x1. 500 feet;
is described as ouartz-bearing and Is
named the Revelation and Justice" It
lies between Gaylord street and Ohio ave-
nue. and Jefferson and Mercury streets.
The adjoining claims are the Solid Null
doom on the east and north, the Otisco on
the west and the May nj Maud on the
south. The location is said to cove a
portion of the Emery placer. for which a
United States patent vas issued to George
Tong, Wesley p. Emery and others, only
a short time ago after litigation covering
a period Of fifteen years. The Emery
Placer, however contains only eighteen
and a fraction acres, which is less than
a full claim.

THE WONG

When the Dakota volunteers scrambled
off the train at the Northern Pacific depot
at Spokane they were besieged by q
crowd of high school girls, who demanded
buttons from the blue uniforms as SOU
venirs. The soldiers for the most part
submitted c~heerfully. Soon their blouses
were denuded of every fastening. Sud
denly a tall blonde girl rushed through
the depot to the platform. She was late.
The buttons were all gone and her
friends proudly exhibited their trophies.
But the blonde girl had come for but
tons, and buttons she would ave. Down
at the end Of the platform h espied a
colored man standing near the train. He
blue and every button was in place. "Just
because he was a negro soldier he has
been overlooked" thought the high school
blonde. "Well, I don't care for color-I
want buttons A moment later the un-
suspecting victim was accosted by the
blonde girl who had an ocen knife, in her
hand. Won't YOU give ME some If your
buttons?" she sweetly asked, as she
reached the top one and began to saw the
thread with the knife blade. "Heah, heah.
miss-don' do dat. It's again de rules, I
ain't'-But it was too late. With a
dexterity born of a desire to have brass
buttons or die. the girl had severed two
~circlets. h paused on the third attempt
noticing the letter /" on the button,
With one Mortified look at the man she
realized that she had struck the porter
of a Pullman car. Then she threw the
buttons on the platform, and with GRIM
son checks darted through the depot.
