In.a few weeks stoping will begin in this part of the mine and then there will be no bother in keeping the stamps busy. On the 500 level a croscut is being ran west to tap the ledge which is now about 100 feet distant from the! face of the working. The mine is looking better than ever before in its history, and when the deadwork preliminary to its thorough opening up is “once accomplished it will be among the banner }Foducers of this — district.

STAGES ON RUNNERS. Fine Sleighing From Can ptonyille to Sterra City This week. The Downieville stages are now. going on wheels to a point a mile above Camptonville and from there through to Sierra City runners are usad. When the snow came the road was smooth and hard as a rock, making a splendid foundation. There is just enough snow to make the track “glarry,” the depth at the Mountain House being eighteen ‘inches. With such slipping the fourhorse teams snateh heavy loads along ata clipping gait. As long as the conditions continue as favorable as now the trip clear through will.be made in one day. Should warm rains or very deep snow fall it will take two days for passengers to get through. == .

This animal is about the size of a football. big as the rest of the body. The crab has a fashion of raising this Siva $a such a way as to give the impression that it beckons or threatens ” In appearance it is a very formidable brute, possessing enormons eyes and the hugest of feelers. It take@ up its position at the front door Of the house and acts in every way asa watchdog and every bit as faithfully. “It is’ possessed . of wonderful strength, speed and stamina, easily ov : an enemy not possessed of sprinting powers. Its instinct’ is very dcute, and it is rarely at fault in spotting a ‘‘wrong ‘an’? who approachés the’ house with any evil intention. Woe to the intruder if he gets into the clutches of the merciless doorkeeper. It will require a sledge hammer to extricate him from the embrace.

Strand Magazine. nn ey = 0 The Bashi Barouks. .The bashi bazouks are to the Turk ish army what the Cossacks are to.the Russian. The Cossacks are, however, immeasarably their superiors in all that goes to make the soldier. Bashi bazouks are almost without discipline. Their paged is that of the wild beast seek. ing its prey, and once on the warpath they are merciless. It was the bashi bazouks who by their monstrous cruelties gave such point to the pen and tongue of Mr. Gladstone at the time of the ‘‘Bulgarian atrocities.’® Bashi bawouk means ‘‘hot brained.’’ Their motto is ‘‘Kill, kill!’’ to which they freely add ‘‘and rob.’’ Their weapons are the Jong lance, such as is used by the Coseack, the saber, two or three pistols and as many murderous looking daggers.— San Francisco Argenaut. Colors and Complexion. “It is sarprising how few women con‘. eider whether the colors they wear are suited to their own particular complexion or not.

Not a Good Job. “Yes,” he said, “I'm a self-made man.” “I take it for granted,” returned the smart young man, looking the old fellow over critically, ‘that if you had it to do over again you’d let the contract out.” The young man had no expectations in that quarter anyway, so the remark had no effect upon his future.—Chicago Post. Warring Emotions. “I didn’t know there had been any death in Miss Wayter’s family.” “There hasn’t. She’s wearing black ag. an experiment.” “An experiment?” “Yes, old Giltedge has proposed and she wanis to see how she would look in mourning.”—Chicago Jourual. Life-Like. “What did you think of the scene in my play in which I show a moderu legislator haranguing his colleagues?” “Most realistic thing I ever beheld,” was the reply. “Half the people in the place were asleep.”— Washington Star.

Gray is be coming to women with gray hair and to young women who have gray eyes and lovely complexions, old or young, provided she selects the right tint. The biond can wear pure white, without a tinge of yellow or pink in it, but the brunette must be careful to wear the soft cream shades. And if she wears black at all it must be very glossy, while a pronounced blond can safely deck herself in the dull black which is used for mourning.
