UNEARTHED EMIoRANT CACHE
Buried by Party Of Gold Seekers
When Attacked by Indians.

Berkeley Corr San Francisco Cali.
Investigating the truth Of the legend
which told OF the attacks OF Indians on
party of emigrants bound in 1854 from
Missouri to the Rogue River valley. Ore.
their flight through Nevada and their kill
ing OF oxen and their burial OF all except
necessary articles OF travel. Mr.. and Mrs
s. J. Sill Of this city unearthed a few
days ago the remains OF the emigrant en-
campment and discovered an oak barrel
containing articles OF food, knives. scis-
sors. whisky, nails and hammers and
other accessories Of the trip across the
plains in the prairie schooners.
The achievement of the Stills Is looked
upon as particularly credi able. as many
searching parties have made attempts TO
discover the buried articles in canyon
~" on ranch ~" owned by T. j. Cum
mings of Woodland.
Cummings assisted the Stills in the
search. and after several days the buried
unearthing OF the barrel required picks
and shoyels and several hours work in
a deep canyon.
According TO legend the emigrants were
pursued for several days by the Indians,
who shot many OF their oxen. and they
were forced to make the trip on foot. In
order that the journey could be made the
more quickly from the hostile country OF
the redmen the barrel Of articles which
has just been unearthed was buried.

Call of New York Town.

From Scrlbners-
They are few who could live like Tho

plore their own minds. We march indeed
10 the music of another drummer. and
here In New York the drum beats faster
than anywhere we know. 1t stirs the
blood, and once you have heard II, once
you have stepped to 1t, wherever you may
go you will hear the long roll OF II, dis
tant but distinct.
Every great city has this mysterious
drawing power in some degree. and 1t is
as difficult to analyze as the fascination
of smoking. In Europe we can often
trace IL to buildings which have a thou
sand stories TO tell us or to quaint streets
that our imagination can readily people
with the men of another age. Here there
are no such elements in the equation.
Yet New York gets In the blood. The
senseless hurry OF tour critics always
point out our lack Of repose-the rush
for wealth, the barbaric opuence tho OBJ
trusive poverty-how often we hear them
excoriated. And smiling We admit It ALL
We march to a quick drumbeat and per-
haps to barren conquests. But there Is
something martial in our very noises:
something OF the fight in our stirring
life.
Bigness Is in itself fascinating. Ono
man studies the wonders of an ant. while
a thousand stand gaping at an elephant.
In its way our city is the biggest In the
world. London may cover twice its area
and number twice its people. but II takes
statistics to convince you, for standing
in Ludgate circus or Charing Cross you
might imagine yourself In the heart of
any large city. It lies about you in two
dimensions and the rumble Of its wood
paved streets Is reduced to the monotony
OF the plane. Here we look up as we'll
as around. The third dimension gives us
sense OF overpowering bigness. The

How the Normans Dined.

From the Dundee Advertiser.
The Norman dined at In the morning
and supped at 5. The tables of the

sumptuousy furnished with every deli
cacy they could procure from foreign
parts. The monks OF Canterbury had

against their abbott for taking away
three dishes they had previously been
allowed. Thomas q Beckett gave f5
equivalent to ELS Of our money for
a dish Of cells. When this proud prelate
went on a journey he had in his train
eight wagons, each drawn by five of the
strongest horses. Two OF these wagons
contained ale. one the furniture of his
chapel, another the furniture of his
Kitchen: the others were well filled with
provisions. clothes and other necessaries.
He had. besides, twelve packhorses

GLASS WALLS.
Fruit Trees on Both Sides Have
Warmth of Suns Rays.

warmth OF Suu'S nays.
From the Cosmos
When vines and trees are trained in es-
paliers on the south side of a wall the
north face of the Wall is usually wasted.
although 1t can be used for the cultiva-
ton of varieties of apples. pears and
cherries which are hardy and not subject
to rot If a transparent wall could be
used plants growing on both sides OF IT
would receive the benefit OF the sun
rays. Some experiments have been MADE
with glass walls. Count de Choiseul re-
Gently published the results of such an
experiment, with photographs showing
heavily fruted pear trees on both sides
of the transparent wall. The wall, which
is about sixty feet long and six and
half feet high, was erected in 1901. Each
side Of it was planted with nfteen pear
trees OF the variety Doyenne dhiver
CWinter Doyen), giving a wall area of 232
square feet to each tree. In 1907 the
trees on the south side bore 134 pears
weighing ninety-one pounds and the trees
on the north side bore 100 pears weighing
seventy-seven pounds. All the pears were
OF very fine appearance and without pIem-
ish. and the pears from the north side
were smoother than the others.
In the nursery of CrouX ct Fills Is a
glass wall which Is surmounted by hori-
zontal glass sashes and planted with the
same varieties of peaches. apples and
pears on each side. These espaliers also
began bearing in 1907. and both sides
have produced equally fine fruit. The
difference in temperature between the
sides of the wall is not very great. as
the southern face reflects less heat and Is
therefore cooler than that OF masonry
wall while the northern side Is warmed
by the rays which pass through the glass.
A masonry wall possesses. theoretically.
one advantage over a glass wall. as II
absorbs during the day greater guam
tity Of heat and consequently eNerts
greater heating effect at night Longer
experience will be required TO determine
which material is better on the whole.
The cost of construction is practically the
same for both.

Marriage as q Show.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
A New Jersey justice Of the peace has
offered to marry free Of charge any
couples who will present themselves be-
fore him at the halloween pageant and
the promoters OF the pageant as an addi-
tional inducement offer household furni-
ture and a bouquet Of flowers worth SO
60 induce SWANS and sweethearts TO over
come their difidence and let him marry
them thus publicly. The rector Of one
of the local churches does well to oppose
this travesty Of the matrimonial cere-
mony. which. as he says, would degrade
Il to the level OF a street show. People
who would consent to be married In this
way can scarcely regard the ceremony
as of sacred significance

JUDGE THOUGHT He LOOKED IT
Was Not the Man Who Drank
Whisky Before Breakfast.
From the New York Sun

From the New York Sun.
In the supreme court in Brooklyn yes
terday Mrs. Jennie Caulfield was trying
to convince Justice Marean that she ought
to have a separation from her husband.
John, because he was drunkard and
sometimes drank as much as pint Of
whisky before breakfast.
Justice Marean looked searchingly at a
florid, full faced man sitting at the right
Of the defendants counsel. Having COM
pleted the scrutiny he turned to the law
yer and said sharply:
1T seems reasonable. He looks as
though he was capable Of it."
A queer expression crossed the law
yers face and broke into grin.
That isn't my client" he said. HE
isn't in court. We understood that this
case would be tried in the afternoon.
Il hope your honor is not referring to
me-" said the man who had been taken
for a horrible example and is a member
Of the bar.
Explanations were lost in a burst Of
laughter in which the justice and the
victim Of mistaken identity joined. Mrs.
Caulfield got her decree.

FERNS FOR THE WINDOW BOX.
Some Long Leaved and Long Named
Varieties That Thrive Indoors.

From Good Housekeeping.
The popularity Of ferns in the house is
30 great that suppose there is hardly a
home in our land without them. About
Is per cent of the ferns used in ferneries
belong to the Pteris family. The common
brake Is a Pteris. but most Of its fernery
kindred do not even bear a family resem-
blance to 1t so far as looks go. My ia
vorite is the dark green, corfaceous
Pteris adiantoides. 1t looks very much
lk, a young holly fern-which is also a
splendid house grower, even under try
ing circumstances. and grows to good
size.
For bedrooms, where the windows are
kept open all night in the coolest weather
We have found nothing good as the
lived for the three years we have had
them. but have grown so that We have
had to subdivide them.
The maidenhair is hardly a fern for
the beginner, although 1t is mentioned as
one of the six best house ferns. The
Aspidium Tsussimense is a japanese
dwarf fern and one of the best for fern
dishes, while the Polystichum Capense. a
native of Cape Of Good Hope, Is good
because 1t Is uninfested with insects.
Sometimes q fern will look so sicA in
day or two II will make your heart ache.
and yet you will not be able to detect any
bugs. A worm may be in the pot and
good dose of soap water will drive him
out and make the plant feel well again.
Some women dose their plants with castor
Oil. but that that Is too bad tasting and
human a remedy to do even a well plant
any good. 1t only makes the soil rancid.
OF course, every one knows the virtues
Of the Boston fern. Its only enemy is
the mealy bug. The Boston fern was
modification of the sword fern. which
was too stiff for house decoration. Now
the Boston fern has many notifications.
Our neighbors have window baskets with
the dwarf Boston fern. which Is compact.
bushy and low. The Whitman is the
showiest of the Boston ferns.

From the New York Times

The other day. when handsome young
couple. followed by a grinning porter.
entered a Pullman attached to a southern
train just about to pull out Of Jersey City,
the passengers all became wise" In an
instant. Bride and groom" whispered
the chap just back OF the seats taken

man across the aisle. The latter merely
grinned in assent. Then the young hus-

now" The young woman assumed q
weary expression. Are we going to
thrash that all over again?" she asked.

the man who had invited his attention to
the couple. You lose. Been playing the
market. Not much bride and groom about
that" Whereupon every one lost inter-
