the south African nuahmen Are gilt
ed with Marvellous sight.
II has often been remarked that civil
ized people tend TO become short sighted
This is because in towns and cities their
vision is mostly confined TO short dis
tances Savage races. ON the other
hand, are generally gifted with remark
ably keen sight, and few tribes are
more noteworthy in this respect than
the African bushmen, whose eyes are
veritable telescopes. This power is no
doubt wise provision of nature, for
the bushmen are a small race, and If
they were not able to see danger long
way off they would soon be externinated
by their various enemies, whether saw
ages Of other tribes or wild beasts.
A traveller in South Africa relates
that while walking one day in company
with friendly bushman the savage
suddenly stopped. and gazing across the
plain cried out that there was a lion
ahead. The traveller gazed long and
earnestly in the direction indicated by
the bushman, but could see nothing.
"Nonsense, he said, "there's nothing

with the bushman following at his
heels, trembling and unwilling and still
asserting that he could see lion.
Presently the native came TO dead
stop and refused to bulge another inch,
for this time, he declared, he could see
a lioness with number Of cubs fact
which made the animal more danger
ous than ever. But the European, who
could see no lioness, much less its cubs,
pushed ahead, declaring the bushman
was dreaming. After walking quarter
of mile. however, he could dimly
make ont an object moving across the
horizon. Still doubling that il could be
the object which the bushman said he
had seen, he continued to advance, and
at last was able to distinguish lioness,
with her cubs around her, walking

A FISHY STORY.
A Louisville Paper Prints Story Of the
Plot to Assassinate Goebel.

Louisville, April 6.-The Courier
Journal prints circumstantial story of
the conception and the execution of the
plot to kill Senator Goebel. The story is
based upon evidence said to have been
given the attorneys for the prosecution
by Wharton Golden, Will Culton, H. e.
Youtzy and others. The story gives the
names of the man suspected of having
fired the shot that killed Senator Goe
bel. He is a Clay county feudist, and
has not yet been arrested. The men i'm
plicated in the conspiracy are the same
that were implicated by Goldens testi-
mony, several of whom are now under
arrest. The story follows Goldens tes
timony as to the plan to cause riot in
the legislature, during which Demo-
cratic members were to have been
killed, and tells how the alleged plan to
kill Goebel was carried out; of the pur-
chase from a well-known Cincinnati
house of steel bullet smokeless pow
der cartridges and the procuring of a
S-caliber rifle, with which the shooting
is said to have been done, the weapon
being returned an hour afterward; and
the payment of 5000 in advance to the
man who did the shooting. After the
shooting this man was escorted to the
mountains by number of armed men,

PROSPEROUS CERRILLOS.
The Smelter is Success and an Incentive
to Mining Operations.

to Mining Operations.
Special Cor. New Mexican.
Cerrillos, April 5.--The smelter at Ger
rillos is running very satisfactorily and
turning out bullion rapidly. The places
of the reception and storing of ores fol
treatment, and for iron ore, limestone
and coke, are being much enlarged, sc
that a large extra supply can be kept
constantly on hand. The ore now being
smelted is mostly from the Magdalena
mines, but very liberal rate has been
fixed for the purchase of local ores and
within month there will be large
output from the Cerrillos mines. Super
intendent Thomas is improving the
grounds by planting number of hand
some shade trees and by grading and
terracing. A water cooling plant has
been erected, by which the same water
is used over and over again, and with
this appliance the supply will be suffi-
cient for three stacks instead of one.
The building of an additional stack de-
pends entirely on the rapidity with
which local ores are furnished, fact
which should stimulate the mine own
ers of this vicinity to active operations.
The iron ore from Glorieta is found to
be of very excellent quality, and it is
likely that contract will he made for
5000 tons of it.
