John Bryant informs the Journal Miner that he has opened up fine body of ore on one of his mines in Thumb Butte district, about five or six miles south west of Prescott. He is only down about fifty feet, but has a good quantity of ore that runs up nearly to the Sl00 mark. He intends to begin development work on an ad- joining claim at once.

According to the Weather.

'1 know sea captain who is fun ny dog" sa4 John De Tar, the artist. T used to make long voyages with him on his sailing ship, and ill clear weather he would spend all his spare time reading the Bible. He had a cushioned rocking chair under an awning forward, and there we would sit and re9 and read, and then e Ire in plous thought at the sHDIit ocean. But as soon as a storm arose this sea captain put away his Bible and raved and cursed terribly. He would stand at the foot of the mainmast and glare up at the lowering sky, and above the fury of the storm you would hear him roaring: Blow, - you, Blow, you - And he would rant around and shake his fist at the sky and swear past all belief He did his praying when everything was all right, and turned bad when he most needed to be good Philadelphia Record

TO AVOID DROWNING.
it Is d Safe Euie to Turn Upon the
 Back.

Back.
 A c0rFeS peadent of the Jacksonville Metropolis says: \ guest at my sum- mer place, 9 fca miles from Pablo, while bathing, Was carried out to sea, and when almost out of sight, and all hope had fled. 10 cur surprise we sud- denly saw his body impellcd foreibly toward us. Then We saW it recede a few feet. and then again. as it were, shoot twenty feet toward the shore. This continued until my son and my self al last able to reach him, bore him insensible to the beach. After reeoy- cry his story was that after losing all hope, guided by some mysterious inn pulse. he had turned upon his back, when lie felt himself carried rapidly forward He had been turned over upon his face to get his bear ings, when he was carried out further from the land, end on again placing himself upon his back. The surface waves brought him rapidly to the shore, a. rescued man. It is an error that the drowning man is attacked by eranp except in very cold weather. He droWns from heart failure, induced by the v}jent eXertion and the upward zIoss5.Te of the water upon the ab- dOmen diminishing the space and inn ped4ng the action of the heart. By turning over on the back this pressure is removed, the back being almost en- tireIy strong wall of bone and mus ele. Also when on the back, the entire body is nearer the surface and the surface waves tend toward the shore, the under-current out to sea. even the legs, when upon the back, being less exposed to the current that tends to- ward the sea. By floating genlly upon the back the heart relieved of it's pres sure, becomes calm and quiet and the swimmer can regain his strength and float for hours. The bather whose heart is weak should always presG Tt, when standing erect, the right side of ;he body 10 the waves, and thus avoid the Sulhyan-like blows of the incom- ing waves upon a crippled heart. In every bathhouse should be posted the injunction. "In case of exhaustion or accident turn :2pon the back"

YELLOW FEVER.
Worst Place for the Disea,e Is Senegal
 Africa.

From the reports there can be little fever spot on earth is Senegal, the French colony in East Africa. Eff teen per cent of the population of this colony is already destroyed by the fearful disease One per cent die every sIay with hopeless regularity during tae incessant winter rain. There is still nearly 100 days of this in pros- pect. Imagine an epidemic in any city that should carry 5000 inhabitants in three montns. o' 800 persons daily. Suppose tha1 :ig the last five days alone 25.ce0 ind ,-iduals, or 5000 per sons dai5. hod Aeen carried off, and that the r"0a>l0i. ties were in favor of an increase C. the epidemic, and ono can get an idea of the situation in Senegal. We are guarded" says the report, by a military cordon, which fires on those unfortunates who at tempt to escape. It does not take long. On a Saturday Colonel de Occur was in full health. On Sunday morn ing he entered the hospital. On Mon day evening at o'clock he was buried" Usually, however, a case lasts three or four days. The mortal ity is always about S6 per cent ill pro- portion to the number of those at tackled. The epidemic started from the extreme western section of the town, and after following a regular line of march, is on board the war ship Heroine, moored at the extreme eastern end of the towG. For fifteen days the officers and men have been consigned on board this old vessel and have not appeared on shore. Never theless, the disease has found means to reach them Physicians die like flies continues the report. Sisters and infirmarians follow the same road. Mass is no longer said in public on ac count of cOntagion. Fortunately there will always remain a negro priest to absolye the last who die, for it is a curious fact that the negroes are con- pletely immune.

THIN WOMAN'S REVENGE.
Coming Style of Skirts Is Her Protest | Against Present Fashion.

The fiat skirt has almost complete ly disappeared, to give place to the tunic with small folds, which scarcely improves the figure. ..It is the re- venge of thin women" was said +O me in melanc oly tone by fashionable Parisienne who never misses a society gathering You see very many bright eolored cloth and light velvets trimmed with fur. The sack-shaped jachet worn very long, still has it's follow rs for evening and country, but flap capes, superposed one over the other, have displaced the high-mounting capes. Felt hats, with turned-up brims, small three-cornered hats and toques are trimmed with furs or fruits and autumn leaves, in pretty shades. Smal! muffs are made with roses, clirysan- themums, orchids and peoples, to har- monize with the shades of the h $. Finally, colored stockings to match the dress or underskirts seem more popu- lar than black stockings, the suprem- acy of which, after having been for so long undisputed, seems to be menaced at not very distant date by the of fensive return of the white stocking, against which, however, the majority of fashionable ladies who have pretty feet, attached to dainty ankles, protest.

Leith Building Great Docks.

Leith. Scotland, will become a port of some capacity and trade two years hence \ suite of docks is in construc- ton there, which is to cost between 200,000 pounds and 100000 pounds more than was estimated when the Leith dock comm ssioners launched their program. In 1896 seventy five acres of the foreshore were reclaimed; ; and the dock now near completion is 300 feet long, with a width of $50 feet for HOO feet of it's length and 2S0 feet for the remainder. The dock walls are forty-four feet high, and there are to be two pairs of steel gates. each weighing close upon 300 tons. To this equipment it has been resolved to add a graving dock 500 feet long.

CRIES OF WARNING.
Birds Read Storm Signals and Avoid
 Storm Center.

storm Center.
 The power of the winds is dreaded by almost all ordinary birds. and an instinetive knowledge seems to be possessed by them that if they once surrender to the force of the winds unknown dangers will have to be faced. Consequently, when a high storm prevails all birds seek shelter of some kind. The strong winged sea birds are the last to take fright at the approaching hurricane, but even they will finally try to escape it's fury be- heath the shelter of some cliff or sand dune During tremendous windstorms birds may sometimes be seen flying overhead at great altitude. When this phenomenon is observed it may be taken for granted that the upper atmosphere is comparatively quiet. and that the disturbance is confined chiefly to the lower regions. When heavy wind or gale springs up the gulls, terms. and petrels, will fly to and fro ever the waters surface rising and falling, and uttering their peculiar cries of warning. If the storm extends too high up they will drift gradually with the wind or fly away on the edge of the hurricane. Very often they get caught unexpectedly in the gales Of wind and they find themselves in a dangerous position. Then they strug- gle with might and main against the powers of the air currents. A young herring gull, a petrel, or a tern thus surprised will beat up against the wind with powerful flight. It will rise high in the air facing the gale, and making a little progress forward as well as upward Then it will sud denly descend with rapid flight toward one side of the storm-swept path, but falling off at the same time in the di- rection of the blowing wind. Once more it will sweep around and face the storm, ascending heavenward, and striking desperately out toward the di reetion of the storm. By pursuing these tactics the bird will gradually work itself to one side of the storm center

CUBAN RATS
Are Three Feet Long, and Are Good to
 to Eat


 Washington Special to New York World: The expedition sent to Cuba by the Smithsonian institution to col lect strange animals and plants has returned loaded down with specimens and with tales of adventure more strange than the freaks they brought with them.
 Rats of an edible speeies-some three feet long including the tail, and weighing eighteen pounds-were cap tured, but none were brought back to this country alive. All were eaten by the hungry adventurers. These rats and the snakes on the island, none of which are Venomous nearly al been eaten by the famished Cubans and are very scarce. Feroeiou8 giant lizards tiguanas) were captured and were brought back alive. These liz ards are also eaten by Cubans, but the scientists ssed them up. Cuba has n ore than thirty species of bats. and nlany, including white bats, were cap tured and will be stuffed and added to the Smithsonian collection. In capturing the white bats in a cave 1QQ feet underground where thousands were hiding. several of the party were bitten. Nuuefous snakes scorpions, tarantulas, giant spiders and huge dragon flies were taken. The collec- tion is also enriched by many native birds, some with brilliant plumage, and numerous rare plants.
