Speaking of stage drivers reminds one of the glory of stages, which reached ita tween. Sacramento and Virginia, Nev. Six magnificent horses to each coach, the coaches the finest possible, the horses caparisoned with every ornament which could be added to enhance their beauty. The driver; in-a-bearskin coat and cap, bearskin gauntlets, was a little sovereign in his way. No matter what the grade. was, no matter how fierce the blizzard or how deep the snow, he carried things through on schedule time. He care@-nothing for snowslides.or high water, and his ruling idea was that he must make the station ahead of the opposition line, = In this work there were a dozen men, each with a personality of hisown and all with a perfect art in their hands and their. brains -which made them sovereigns, and the locomotive that. succeeded} them did not very much increase the time which some of them made. Each iad his friends, his champions; each was greatest in his sphere among a certain crowd, but they were altogether great. ‘The like of them was never before and never will be again.—Salt Lake Tribune, Deep Sea Thermometer, The déep sea thermometer, asinvented ‘abroad and improved by officers of the United States navy, is a marvelously ingenious and effective contrivance. It is in effect a self registering instrument, though not technically so called. The thermometer is so arranged that it is automatically turned. upside down when the machinery begins to draw it up from the depth at which the temperature is to ‘be ascertained. The effect of the inverting process is to break the column of mercury, and a small portion of the colmmn_ remains in the upper end-of—the tube, exactly enough to measure the temrature at the moment of inversion. e tube is graduated so as to read from wither end, and the quantity of mercury . ain the upper part of the tube is so small that it does not respond to any but great and sudden changes of temperature. It thus happens that the reading, when the ‘thermometer reaches the aurfaca, is prac‘ttically correct for the temperature at the point of inversion.—Kansas City Times, A Rare Chance, Mother—Yes, my dear. I know that heis véry much older than you are. He is one of the old fashioned gentlemen, the only one of the old stock left unmarried, . and I advise you to take him. Daughter—But why? He is not even rich. Mother—Wealth does not bring happiness, my daughter, Like his father before him, he will do his own: marketing, and if the steak is tough you can growl at him instead of him at you.— New York Weekly. : THE TRANSCRIPT iS THE Leading Paper OF NEVADA COUNTY. AS AN Advertising Medium IT 1S THE Northern-Central Part of . s¢ widths. California A -TRAGEDY IN TURKEY. Example of the Cruelties Practiced Against Armenians In the Sultan’s Domain. Stories multiply of the fearful persecution of the Armenians in the sultan’s domain. Here is an example, and there aremany similar: . The Kurds attacked the Armenian villege,of Herfev and demanded that the beautiful daughter of the priest be delivered to them. The girl, hearing that the'villagers intended to comply with the order to escape further barbarities, fled with her, brother toward Russian territory. The Kurds heard of her escape and followed and overtook the couple in the mountains. The brother and sister defended themselves behind a rock until they had fired all their cartridges but two. The sister: then threw herself him to-shoot—her with one of the éartridges so that she might not fall into ‘the hands of the Kurds nor see the death of her brother. With the second he This was done. The sister was killed, but the brother was taken half dead and delivered tothe Turkish authorities, He is now in prison.—London Letter. Result of an Artistic Conceit, About a year agoa clever artist, in mere caprice, made an ingenious picture of a canalbdat being propelled by the trolley. He received a few dollars for the picture, and so far as he was concerned that was the end of it. Some scheming fellow up in Albany saw the illustration and at once had a bill passed appropriating $20,000: for experimenting. The results have proved successful, and that politician is now on the highThat artist is still making pictures. As this sort of power on canalboats is likely to become permanent, it is just as well to tell everybody the name of the poor, struggling artist, so that he may get some measure of justice. His name is J. F. Burns.—Detroit Tribune, The New Shine. The spring chappie, besides tying his own tie and buttoning his own shirt with real buttons, is supposed to have blackened his own shoes. Whether it is out of deference to the spring muds, or whether as a caprice, it is not known, but it-is far from fashionable-to have boots-with the gloss of a bootblack’s polish upon them. No extreme chappie would go forth in shoes done thus. ‘‘Take off the shine,’’ isthe order given to the bootblack: —New York Recorder. 5 European Expositions, Three expositions are to be held in Europe in 1894, more or less international in their character.
