CattIeman or Gambler,

1One day last fall" said a well known Montana capitalist "I was rid Ing on a train in my state and got to be on pretty fair terms with the train boy by buying a few of the things he had to sell. It was not a very formal kind of a train, and when the boy had fin- lshed his rounds he came over to sit with me and chin a bit as he said. was willing enough, as he was a sharp lad and there was nobody else to talk to, and he went right at things.
 "'Do you know he said, that can tell by looking at a man mighty near what he is. Now, there's that fellow oyer there in the corner; he's Chicago drummer. I can tell him by the way he lets his money go and the flip style he has when he talks to people. And that chap over there with the silk hat on; he's a preacher from a country town, I'm dead sure, and I'll go ask him if you say so.'
 ''I didn't say so because I didn't care continental, and the boy went on with his descriptions of the people on the train. At last 1 asked him what he thought I was. I had on a pretty fiashy suit of light stun and was think ing I was looking pretty we'll, so I was willing to risk the boys venture. He looked me over for a full minute very carefully.
 swell he said at last. you've got a sloo of money, but I ain't dead sure whether you are cattleman or a gam bler.' .'"-Washing. on Star.

The Center of the Earth.

Of late years the general view has been that the interior of the globe, though partly liquid, is for the most part solid. Some have considered that a section through the earth would show the following:
 CD An outer sclid envelope, CD a semihuid envelope, (9 fluid envel- ope. (4 a smeifiuid envelope, (5l a solid nucleus. No. l results from a reduced temperature only, No. 2 from pres sure and temperature not quite suffi- cient for liquidation, No. 3 from tenn perature sufficiently high to produce complete liquidation, No. 4 from & pressure so great as to prevent even the terrific heat which most certainly exists deep down in the earth from completely liquefying the material on which 1t works, and No. from pres sure which overcomes completely the liquefying power even of the maxi mum heat of the interior.
 This pressure is estimated to be at the center of the earth 7,1S0,5 ,593, ,750 pounds to the square foot, a pressure so enormous that no known substance could fuse beneath 1t. Even hydrogen at the highest possible temperature would under such conditions become as hard as a diamond. Hence 1t seems probable that, far from there being a vacuum at the center of the earth, there is basis of intensely solid mat ter there.-Pearson's Weekly.

Farmer. scaId Hog. In Them, Mnd a
 Laundry Is to Be Established.
 c. Grimes, the owner of the hot springs two miles south of Lakeview, Or, has decided to put in laundry plant there and convert the millions of gallons of hot water that are going to waste to laundry purposes. There Is only a small amount of it now being used for bathing purposes. The water boils out of these springs and runs to
 waste in volume two feet wide and six inches deep and at distance of 100 yards, in ordinary weather, is at the
 boiling point. During winter or sum- mer ranchers scald their hogs in the
 stream near the spring and do it ns quickly as 1t is done in the vats pre-
 pared for that purpose by the butchers. Within a radius of three miles of Lakeview there are three of these
 springs. and all are very large. It Is claimed that move is on foot 10 con vert the hot water from some of these springs to use in & wool washing
 plant. The wool Is shipped in its natural state, and the expense of wash lDk IS Shtu tO nt thoIlhodrs bhN th~ washing would cost but a nominal sum with such natural facilities.
 While the water has great medicinal | qualities and various diseases have been permanently cured by bathing in | the streams, yet 1t bleaches well when used for laundry purposes and
 will not injure the texture of the goods, either woolen or cotton.
 Two of the largest springs are going | to waste. only the one owned by Mir. Grimes having heretofore been utilized at all. He has a couple of small swim
 ming vats inclosed in board shacks,
 and people go out and pay 20 cents
 occasionally for 6 swim. - Portland | Oregonian.
