GERMAN GOVERNMENT
SEEKING WAR HORSES

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 4.-The fact
that the German government is pur-
chasing California horses for use in
the Chinese campaign is now matter
OF. official record in the office of me
county clerk. That foreign agents have
been quietly purchasing horses in this
and other western states for use in
China has been known for some time,
but now the horse market threatens to
take a squirt.
Mrs. Eliza NJ. Miller, as administra-
tor of the estate of the late A. p More,
applied to Judge Coffee yesterday for
instructions regarding bringing horses
belonging TO the More estate from SAM
"a Rosa Island to San Francisco for
inspection by agents of the German
government with view to their pur-
chase. Judge Coffee investigated the
matter and instructed Mrs. Miller not
TO ship the horses to this city, but to
endeayor TO sell them where they are,
on Santa Rosa Island. An order TO this
effect was made, and if the German
government wants the horses it must
inspect and purchase them as stated
in the order.

SAVES THE FINE GOLD.
Snn Francisco Man Solves the Mos
Important of Alaskan Mining
Problems.

With the view of overcoming one of
the chief difficulties with which gold
seekers are confronted at Cape Nome
and other Alaskan beach and placer
mines an invention has just been per-
fected in San Francisco which is
worthy of more than passing attention
from those who contemplate a visit
to the new fields this spring.
In an unpretentious shop at No. 254
Beale street is a complete mechanical
ly constructed machine for the pur-
pose of saving the fine gold found in
the sand and gravel of the beach mines,
much of which it has been found i'm
possible to secure by the means ordi-
narily employed by miners. The prin-
cipal of this machine is centrifugal ag-
itation, but its construction is remark
ably simple.
The practicability is assured, as one
of the builders has covered the Alas
kan gold fields and is familiar with the
character of machinery necessary to
such mining.
In appearance it resembles a minia-
ture dredger, there being a simple APP
paTatus of buckets on an endless chain
which gathers and elevates the sand
from the beach and dumps it into
disintegrator, whence it falls into sep
arator. Here the black sands separated
fromits coarser elements and falls into
special grinder, which so polishes
and brightens the gold that perfect
amalgamation is assured.
1t is a well1known fact that rusty or
dirty gold will not amalgamate, and
under ordinary circumstances much of
it is lost on this account. This ma
chine, however, insures such perfect
agitation of the sand that the gold is
given free access to the plates in the
amalgamator, and all of it is there
fore saved.
After leaving the grinder the sand
falls into second amalgamator, pass
ing over about 80 feet of riff1ed silver
plates before being dumped into the
failing chute.
1t is the intention of the inventor to
take several of these machines to Cape
Nome in the spring. To meet all re-
quirements the machine has been so
designed that it may be driven either
by hand or other power. and two men
can accomplish as much with it as 20
could with oldfashioned rockers.

BUILD YOUR NEST LOW.
Advice to Girls from Mary Lowe
Dickinson, General Secretary
of the Kings Daughters

One who had been listener while a
bright girl announced most ambitious
aspirations and purposes for her OWL
life answered, gently: "You may be
right, dear child, but do not forget that
the singing birds build low"
If your fight is above the roof trees,
If your hearts are to be high up among
the windrocked boughs, the home nest
sannot fail to suffer loss. And apart
from the loss to those who remain, the
daughter who goes out often finds too
late that the low nest was safest and
best. There are colder winds on the
mountain crags, and it is the birds of
prey that build their nests on high.
After all our thinking and talking of
progress for man or woman, it is true
that nothing ever comes to US that is as
sweet as the life of home. Let women
seek largest culture, the broadcast free
dom, the highest service. All goes well
while they keep the home love warm.
When that love wavers, it is time to
pause. We are building our nests in
the wrong place. Singing birds are to
make melody, first, for our nearest and
dearest, and when our best is too good
for the home we are placing our nests
too high.
For some of the sweetest of our
daughters and sisters there is creep
ing danger here. Not danger that they
shall be too brave, too strong, too
learned, or that their weapons shall be
too heavy or too sharp-but danger
that, in the joy of welding hem, they
forget that all their gifts and powers
must ultimately be used for homes, if
not for their o. for the homes of 9TH
ers. The true woman may build high,
but she cannot for very long dwell
above the home. In her hands is it's re-
generation and its eXaltation into the
noblest institution of God She may
not herself hold therein the place of
wife, mother or daughter, but so long
as in her heart she holds home most
sacred and devotes her highest powers
to the objects that uplift all homes, her
nest is low, and her voice shall be to
the world as sweet as the song of the
birds.-Mary Lowe Dickinson, in St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1900-05-31

accessories, got it in working order,
introducing in its construction quite
500 reeds and pipes. AS a climax he
tuned the organ without assistance.
Next he attached to the organ a
snare and bass drum, cymbals and 20
tuned bells. These additions do not
figure when the machine is in opera
ton simply to mark time, as such at
tachments do in many instruments,
but there is played the regular drum
score, and when the machine is in op.
Grafton it sends forth melodious and
tuneful music.
There is no keyboard, but the music
is produced by the application of rolls.
The keys are worked by being released
by small pins in long roll of wooden
music" The latteris made of strips of
wood into which are driven in proper
time" and spacing metal notes of ap-
propriate size and arrangement. The,
strips, and in some selections there
may be several of them, are glued to a
long strip of canvas which is attached
to the organ. \
But the particularly unique feature
of the instrument is quartette of life
size figures. These are directly in front
of the organ on platform. At the
will of the operator they can be made
to rise from the chairs in which they
are rested. They can be made to bow,
turn their heads and open their
mouths.
For years Mr.. Marshall has put in his
spare time on this novel combination
instrument. Little time could he gen.
orally find until after the close of the
day, so that much of his labor has been
done between supper time and mid
night, and many a time his labors have
continued until break of day.

SOUTH AFRICAN WOMAN.
Feminine PulchrItude Among the
Zulus and Kafilrs Is Judged by
AvOirdupOis.

The Kaffir women of South Africa
beautiful as are their white sisters of
other and more civilized lands. They
pay great attention to beautifying
their bodies. They are great athletes
and their life in the open air makes
them physically strong and well
formed. They are particular about
the condition of their skin, and daily
battle and anoint the entire body,
massaging it until it shines like eb-
ony. They are plump and well round
ed, and usually of handsome bronze
color.
The style Of dressing the hair is
next in Importance. Their kinky
locks are filled with a clay ointment,
by means of which they retain any
position desired without the use of
pins or other fastenings.
The single women stretch their hair
into peak at the top of the back of
the head, where it remains for weeks
in a solid mound. The married won-
en- twist the front hair into a fringe
of tiny curls by mixing the hair with
clay and then twisting it between the
fingers. These twists hang thickly
down over the forehead, and really
deserve the name of fringe, looking
very much like the fringe of the Rus
sian poodle. The back hair they dress
in variety of ways, using clay al
ways to straighten out the kinks and
keep them straight.
Young women wear only beads and
beaded ornaments, but these are
quite profuse. The only semblances
of garments are a short beaded apron
and a chest protector. The gauge of
beauty is plumpness. The plumper
the girl the more beautiful she is con-
