GEOGRAPHICAL FRIENDSHIPS.
Those which Depend Altogether Up
ON Being Located In the Same
NeighbOrhoOd.

A true friend, of course, Is one
whose bodily presence, agreeable
though it be, is not essential to the
continuance of the relation. says the
Weeks Progress. Such one we meet
after ten years separation with as
little awkwardness as If we had parted
yesterday. We need not even write
to each other, except as we desire to
know the facts of daily progress or
retrogression and satisfy our pride In
the others achievements or express
our verbal sympathy over his disap-
one or two for every man or woman
who is capable Of deep feeling, and
that is usually all. But there Is
larger minor grade of friendships that
are based upon propinquity The man
we chUm with because we go TO the
same college, or travel with on the
same train or boat, or stop with at the
same hotel, or sit near in the same
office, or chat with at the same club be-
longs to this geographical class. Some
one of him may become deeper
friend, but as rule our relation with
him depends entirely upon certain
common interests, business, social or
intellectual. and does not extend be-
yond the qualification or the desire TO
talk to or merely be some one who VIII
not jar. That desire, truly, is the foun-
dalton of all the common human IN
terrelations; without it, social rela-
tons would be purely sporadic.

SELECTING A WATERMELON.
There Are . Number of Ways, But This
One II Said to BE Better
Than Any.

Good, sound watermelons, not
cracked, kept In shady place, will keep
three or four weeks. Many attempts
have been made to keep them al winter,
but the fruit prsservers have not made
much Of a success Of 1t, says the New
York Herald.
The scene at the great freight piers is
a busy one when a cargo Of watermelons
comes In. News Of the arrival Is soon
spread among the dealers, and at what
ever hour In the day or night 1t may be,
the trucks Of the commission merchants
or dealers crowd the piers.
No attempt is made to handle the mel
ons in bulk or in barrels. They must be
passed out from hand to hand, and long
lines Of men are formed for this purpose.
There is always crowd OF Youngsters
Italians and negroes-at tle depot to
catch a stray melon that is cracked or
broken, and the dismembered parts are
soon gobbled and disappear in gulp.
There are various ways Of telling a
good watermelon. Some persons say
they can, by pressing the sides together,
hear, in good, sound, ripe melon. Pc
culiar sound Of crispness like that OF
celery. A well-known expert gives these
directions:
Lay the melon on its back. with white
part up scratch the skin Of the lightest
part with your finger nail. II the skin
is tender and the melon is yet firm to the
pressure Of the finger, so that you can
with difficulty pierce 1t with your nall,
# is probably a good melon"

ANOTHER NEVADA BuNco
MINING SCHEME.
Californfa-Nevada Mining Company
Paying Irish Dividends.

| Ehom huo UlDuemucch 5HNef btnte
Some weeks ago the Silver State pub
lished an expose of the methods OF the
California-Nevada Mining Company, &
concern that is using the history Of the
old Arizona mine to catch eastern suck
ers. The article would have been libel
Gus il it had not been true. This paper
was endeavoring not only to protect gull
ible fasteners, but to save Humboldt
county black eye as place Of invest
ment.
The Reno Gazette has now taken the
matter up also. That paper says:
The California Nevada mining COM
pany is doing buiness that to a man up
tree would not seem to be legitimate.
The working OF the company's mines at
Humboldt has never yet warranted the
paying of anything but Irish dividends. J"
The mill, as the Gazette understands it,
is an old rattle trap, which was sold for
taxes years ago. II eastern people or
those in the west put money into the
Csliiornia-Nevads Mining Company's
property it is u safe gamble that at least
so per cent of it is gone up. The COM
pany may keep the people nibbling on
the promise OF big dividends, but they
will never realize-that is, the Gazette
does not believe they will.
The more enterprise" Nevada has
like the California-NevadaM Mining Com.
pany, the poorer she will be. Stock
iobbing killed the State in years back,
and will kill it again if wildcats are allow
ed TO rope in people on speculation,
and a poor speculation at that.
Several days ago the Gazette Mining
Department was called upon for inform
alton as to the operations of the Cali
fornia-Nevads Mining Company doing
business in Humboldt county.
The Gazette will be frank and cay that
our investigation has led us to believe it
to be stock-jobbing proposition. 1t is
understood that the company is paying
dividends, but as near as the Gazette
can find out the dividends" come from
the sale OF stock and not from the mine.
