The illustrated West.

We want to call the attention
of the readers of The Sun to The
illustrated West, a monthly pub
LEGATION which is gotten out at
Grand Encampment by G.. w.
Taylor. 1t is a truly creditable
publication, filled with interesting
matter and profusely illustrated
with mountain scene in and
around the town of Encampment
and the adjacent mountains. Ne
yer before in the history of the
west have we seen an attempt
made TO get out an illustrated
magazine in n mining camp and
we feel like logging for this
publication a little. We suggest
that every reader of The Sun, who
is at all interested In this country,
send 20 cents for a sample copy of
the West and, if after looking it
over, they find it of sufficient in
terest send Mr.. Taylor two dol
lars for Il years subscription. If
you don't need it yourself, then
send it to some friend in the east
who thinks this wild and woody
west grows nothing but Indians,
cacti aud bad men. Take our
advice and try the Illustrated
West.

One does not realize the many
changes taking place in this part
of the country, unless attention is
called to them by some such cir
cumstance as occurred last Thurs
day night, when the few remaining
odd timers" Of Cow and Calf
creeks, met ut the home of A. H.
Huston to celebrate his birthday.
/ say the odd timers There
we're n rev others present, besides
the members of his family, and it
vas hard to realize that represent
atives of four families. that are
now living on Cow and Calf
creeks. are all that remain of those
who were there twelve or more
years ago.
Cards were the entertainment
of the evening, spiced with many
a timely jest and well turned joke.
After the handsome prizes had
been distributed, all repaired to
the dining room. The table was
truly a thing of beauty. Pink
was the predominating color, and
it was most artistically cnrried out
in detail. The centerpiece was Il
large vase, filled with fern and
pink and white carnations, sent by
Mr.. Todd from Denver. From
the hanging lamp was suspended
n pink basket of tilagree work,
from which ribbons we're festoon
ed to the four corners of the table.
1t is not necessary to enumerate
the good things to eat, as our host
is never known to be remiss in
in that line. 1t was morning
ing when the last team drove away
hoping to be with him on many
more such happy occasions.
But | must not omit one pleas
ant incident which occurred in
the morning before Mr.. Huston
had arisen. when his little grand
daughter, Frances. went into his
room with "A big switch saying,
"Grandpa, this is what everyone
must have OF their birthday"

ACQUISITION OF CONSCIENCE.
Why the Mountaineer Men and Women
Sit Apart in Church.

A man was talking to his fellow
travellers in a Pullman smoker.
"On one OCCASION" he said, Il
was down in the mountains of
Tennessee, where everything is
primative, and on Sunday l at
tended a Baptist church. Much
to my surprise and interest. the
women were seated on one side of
the house and the men of the 9th
er. | had never seen anything of
the kind before, and after services
were over | spoke to one of the
members about it, as he was a pill
lar of the church and n man |
knew quite well.
I'VE have always done it that
way he said in explanation.
But Why?' l persisted.
Sos to worship God accord
in to our own consciences, as the
constitution pervides,' he replied,
in IL matter of course tone.
But sitting on the opposite
sides of the church doesn't make
any difference with your consci-
ence, does it?' | kept on.
Don't itY' he said, with. en-
phatic confidence in the knowl-
edge that it did. We'll it makes
ali the difference in the world.
Do you mean to say that a man
kin sit over there alorgside NV
his wife, where she kin nudge him
in the short ribs with her elbow
every time the preacher says any
thing she thinks fits his case? |
say, kin a man do that and wor-
ship God accordin' to his consci-
ence? Not much he can't / reck-

DR.. Moss of the English polar expe-
dition of 1S15-77. among many other
things, told of the strange effects of the
extreme cold upon the candles they
burned. The temperature was from 80
to so degrees below zero, and the doc
tor says he was considerably discour-
aged when upon looking at his candle
he discovered that the flame had all it
could do to keep warm 1t was so
cold that the fame could not melt all
of the tallow of the candle, but was
forced to eat its way down, leaving a
sort of skeleton candle standing. There
was heat enough, however, to melt odd
shaped holes in the thin walls of tai
low, the result being a beautiful lace
like cylinder Of white, with n narrow
tongue of yellow flame burning on the
inside and sending out many streaks Of
light into the darkness.

Man Found Dead.

Chas. Travis about 60 years of
age formerly from Colorado who
has.been in the employ of Allen
Il Christensen Sheep company
was found dead lying in the hay
meadow on the ranch. He left
the house about 10 O'Clock II. m.
saying he was going down on the
meadow to see how the horses
we're getting along and would re-
turn shortly TO help haul q load of
hay. This was the last seen of
him alive. He failed to return
and the men at the ranch thought
nothing strange of this, thinking
he had changed his mind and
gone out to some of the neighbors,
looking for work. His corpse was
discovered about 4 p. m. Tuesday.

The Cause of GeyseTs.

Bunsen has explained the periodical
eruption Of geysers in such satisfac-
tory manner that doubt is no longer
possible. \ cavern filed with water lies
deep n the earth under the geyser, and
the water in this cavern is heated by
the earth's internal heat far above PIP
degrees, since there is a heavy hydro
stati: pressure upon it arising from the
weight of water in the passage or nat
ura, standpipe that leads from the sub
terranean chamber to the surface Of
tie earth.
After a time the temperature Of the
water below rises, so that steam is Civ
en- off in spite Of the pressure, and the
column in the exit tube is gradually
forced upward. The release Of pressure
and the disturbance OF the water then
cause the contents Of the subterranean
chamber to fash into steam and expel
the contents of the exit pipe violently.
These eruptions may also be provoked
by throwing stones or clods Of turf into
the basin Of the geyser. The water in
the cavern below is disturbed by this
means.

PLANT PECULiARiTlES.
The Reason Fruit Bushes and Vines
Are Protected by Thorns.

The Reason Fruit Bushes and Vines
Are Protected by Thorns.
a1ost persons think that the stem Of
& plant grows from the roots. On the
contrary, the roots grow from the
stem. In the case of plant that dies
down to the ground in autumn it Is
not the roots that send up new stem
in the spring, for a part Of the true
stem remains underground on the root
crown, and from it grow up the bud
bearing stems in the spring. When
seed terminates, it sends the light
loving stem upward and the dark low
ing root downward.
Saw off part of a tree trunk and you
will find a series of rings from the GEN.
ter to the bark, each ring marking a
year Of growth. But these rings indi-
cate also which of the seasons through
which the tree has lived were dry and
which had plenty of rain. The rings
are always of unequal width. The
narrow ones represent dry seasons and
the wide ones seasons when the condl-
tions of growth were better by reason
Of plentiful rain.
Every rose has its thorn, and the
same may be said Of such fruits as
blackberries, raspberries, etc., only
they are not real thorns, but prickles,
which strip off with the outer bark,
while thorns will not strip off, being
hardened, undeveloped branches.
But why do bushes and vines have
prickles? Many people wonder at it,
for they see no good reason for such
growth. But there is q reason, as
there is in everything in nature. The
prickles are given to them as pro-
lection against plant eating animals.
The stems have a pleasant, aromatic
taste, and COWS and sheep would be
sure to eat them in winter, when they
crave something fresh, If it were not
for the prickles.

The coast folk make their plans with
method and deliberation.
From the harbors where they reside

fords which strike into the interior.
When navigation is no longer possible,
they debark and continue on foot to
the deer country. They carry barrels
filed with salt and sometimes go IN
large companies. When the rendezvous
is reached, they camp. They ambush
themselves along promising "lead' or
deer track, armed with long six foot
muzzle loading sealing guns, which
they charge with about eight fingers"
Of coarse gunpowder and "slugs' Of
lead, fragments of iron OF bits Of rusty
nails, whichever they may have. They
fire point blank into herd Of caribou
as it passes and, being usually good
shots, contrive to kill almost anything
they aim at or to wound it so badly
with these dreadful missiles that it
soon collapses. Then they skin and cut
up the meat, for these men know lit
tie Of every trade, and pack it in the
barrels, with the salt as preservative.

Ants In Siam,

N. Charles Nielsen, French ex-
plorer, in travelling through Siam OBJ
served a species Of small gray ants
which were new to him. These ants
were much engaged in travelling. They
lived in damp places and went in
troops. To his surprise he noticed
among them from time to time an oc-
casional ant which was much larger
than the others and moved at much
swifter pace, and each Of these larger
ants NJ. Meissen saw always carried
one Of the gray ants On its back. While
the main body Of gray ants were al
ways on foot, they were accompanied
by at least one Of their own sort
mounted on one Of these larger ants.
1t mounted and detached itself now
and then from the line, rode rapidly
to the head, came swiftly back to the
rear and seemed to be the commander
of the expedition. The explorer was
satisfied that this species Of ant en-
ploys larger ant, possibly drone Of
the same species, just as we employ
horses to ride upon, though scarcely
more than one ant in each colony
seems to be provided with mount.
