selves into the belief that when the effects
OF excessive indulgence begin to inconyen.
ience them, they can apply to the first
dispensary OF patent nostrums and obtain

cures doubtless have points Of merit, but
In Its last analysis, their success depends
upon the individuality and will power OF
the patient.
Those who avalled themselves OF the
benefits offered BY these different systems
have been variously proflted. Some few
were never visited by q desire to taste the
alcoholic poison again. Others held out
against Its a.lurements for a brief period
after they had been discharged from the
institute, and still others tired Of the
strict methods In vogue, and fed from
their temporary refuge before receiving
any good from the treatment. The dff-
ferent systems have all had their successes
and failures, and the secrecy surrounding
the formulas OF the medicines employed
has always left doubt as to, whether It was
the chemical or moraf agents which
wrought the change, 4 u

A YAQCI HERDER.

Sierra Madres, lies a territory that is
theirs (by right of their exclusive
ability to penetrate and when neces.
sary flo inhabit it. This is the war
home of the Yaquis. Here in the con-
ficts of late years they have proved
invincible, unconquerable. It is a
country of rugged mountain sleeps,
OF deep, furnacelike defles and deso-
<lste, sweltering mesa lands-a coun-
try inaccessible, intolerable to any
thing human save only the Yaquis.
Such is the stronghold in which this
race of fighters is intrenched to-day.
The Yaquis derive their name from
their peculiar habit of loud talking,
their verbal designation Yaqui mean
ing, "He who shouts" The Yaqui,
or Huaqui, is one of the chief rivers
of Mexico, being about 400 miles in
length, and is formed of several
streams, which rise close to the Amer
ican boundary in the Sierra Madre
Mountains. The Yaqui has its outlet
in the Gulf Of California, about twenty
five miles southeast of Guaymas, the
principal Mexican seaport of the Calf.
The State of Sonora has an area OF
about 1900 square miles, or nearly
25, 900 miles more than New York,

town, N. Y, was seriously injured in
4 very peculiar manner the other after
noon. She desired to slake some
lime, and, not being familiar with
chemistry, placed the stuff in heavy
bottle, filed the bottle with hot water
and tightly corked it.
The lime soon set the water boiling
and generated a quantity OF steam
that exerted an enormous pressure.
The bottle burst with report like an
eight-inch shell, and pieces OF the
glass struck Mrs. Washburn in the
face and neck, terribly lacerating the
flesh. One large fragment of glass
cut cash in the left side Of the neck
that extended to within an eighth OF an
inch of the jugular vein. The flying
lime penetrated Mrs. Washburn.s
eyes, and they ere seriously burned.

How to Boil Money.

A well-known chemical expert in
England recently boiled q sixpence
and watched it dissolve and pass
away in the form of vapor, just as any.
one might do with pot of water.
While he was doing it he declared
that any substance on. earth might be
boiled and made to become vapor, il
only you had great heat enough to do
it, not excepting granite rock.
In boiling the sixpence it was cut
up intu small pieces, which were
placed in the hollow carbon CT ar
electric arc lamp. Anyone who has
examined the discarded carbons of or
arc lamp will have noticed that one OF
the carbons is always pointed, while
the other carbon has small cupllke
hole in the end.
When the lamp is lighted the car
bons stand one above the other, the
sharp point Of one carbon fitting into
the "cup" of the other. 1t was III
this little cup that the si1pence was
boiled. Probably it was the smallest
pot and the hottest fire in theS,wofld
He placed the pieces of coin in the
hollow end OF one carbon and fixed
the other pointed carbon down against
them. Then he turned on the electric
current.
He had arranged the apparatus in
front Of a magic lantern. SO that the
whole thing could be seen on O large
white screen. The carbons, the coin,
and in fact everything could be viewed
3plainly. OF course, the electric cur
rent passing between the carbons
made them very hot, and the cup soon
became filed with a white heat. It
was wonderful to see how quickly the
silver melted and ,simmered, and
finally boiled.

.lEs q
Mexican aovernment has announced
s policy Of determination against these
Indians. GS 2
The present uprising is the sixth in
their history. The indiana revolted
against Spain in 1875. The Hidalgos
we're worsted in battle, but they made
apsfor their failure in arms by their
;arffnl duplicity. The Yaquis revolted
again in,e1S25, and again in 1882,
against Mexico, when, armed with
bows, battle axes and spears, and led
by their celebrated chieftain, Bande-
ras, they made it lively for the Gov
ernment troops, but were finally over
come. They made another attempt
in 1S41, and defended their mountain
Businesses with Spartan valor, and for
years held the Government at bay.
Order was restored by compromises.
The conflict this time will be to the
death. In their ten years war the
Yaquis were still using almost wholly
their primitive weapons. To-day they
are we'll armed. u.
The Yaquis are fine people; and
rather deserve encouragement than
annihilation, writes an American Of
fcer who recently visited their coun-
try. They are the remnants of q
brave and partly civilized people
whom the Spaniards found in Mexico.
They have never been conquered, and
have never forgiven their Spanish
enemies nor their descendants. Their
military organization is almost per-
feet, and consists of companies, regi-
ments and divisions.

after it. These will be placed on the
highest points near the various cities

snnsr,t,t,o,n, Affects Price of opals.

A, Ninth street lapidary is authority
for the statement that nothing but the
queer superstition concerning the ILL
lack supposed to cling to opals is re.
sponsible for the low market value OF
those often beautiful stones. This
dealer has in his shop probably the
finest collection of uncut stones and
quartz in this part of the country, and
his array of opals is particularly fine.
"Take an equally handsome group
of gems of any other kind" he said
rather mournfully, as he handled q
tray of the opals, sand people would
quarrel for their possession. AS it
is, nobody wants the opal, and it is q
shame, for there is no gem more
chaste or beautiful. The ill-luck
theory is oil can find to account for
it, Every stone in the LOT shimmered
temptingly as he replaced the tray.
The cheapest opals are the Mexican
varieties. They run from . cloudy
white to steel gray in color, and are
not remarkable for their lustre. The
best ones come from Australia, and
vary from palest blue to pink and
blood red. Even these ere ridicu.
lousy cheap. A pair Of them, oblong
in shape and Of equal size, were OF
exquisite lustre, and when held up to
the light reflected simply countless
succession of tints. The eprice? "You
may have them for $6," said the
lapidary sadly. eff opals were not
uulucky," he added, "they'd be
worth fifty. With o pearl let into
each they'd make set Of sleeve but
tons for an Emperor. New York
