A Mystery About Artemus Ward.
Serrbners for May.
Among the mysteries of his life, and they
are many, none was greater than that involv-
ing the total disappearance of his property
at the time of his death. Mr. Maxfield, his
administrator, who knew much of his affairs
says: that while he did not have as much
money as was generally supposed, yet, being
in his room in Waterford, one day, just
before his departure for England and while
he was arranging his business affairs, “so
that,” as Charles said, “if anything should
happen, mother will be all right," he saw a
pile of notes on the table. amounting to about
twelve thousand dollars, which he thought
was all the money Charles had. He had a
valuable gold watch and chain. The chain
was of solid gold, a present from the Cali-
fornia miners, very heavy, though plainly
wrought, and worth alone several hundred
dollars. He had also a diamond pin of
considerable value, and ’two diamond rings.
Besides, his last season in London was very
successful: for some six weeks, he'netted
three hundred dollars a night. He was also
liberally paid for his contributions to
“Punch.” But of all this his mother never
received a cent, and not so much as a single
relic. Previous to his death he had cleared
the old homestead of debt, and had willed to
his mother a small property at Yonkers, N.
Y. What became of the rest? '

Total Yield or the Big Bonanza.
The consolidated Virginia mine has pro.
duced $4,970,777.95 in biflm, and paid
$42,930,000 in dividends, and the California
mine has produced $46,738,831,044 in bull-
ion and paid $31,320,000 in dividends.
making a. combined product of $111,707,608
and $74,250,000 in dividends. All this
wealth came out of one of those nodules or
concretions of are in the great Comstock
vein, popularly known ,as bonapzas. These
nodules are the sugar plums occuring‘ here
and :there in the vein. Many have been
found in the vein, first andlast, but the one
in the ground of the California and Consoli-
dated Virginia Companies, mentioned above,
was the chief of them all. They occur in
the vein with as much regularity as do
plums in a pudding. As John Mackay says,
“Bonanzas are where you find them.” They
are hand at times and places most unex-
pected. With all the knowledge gained in
twenty years, our mining men cannot te
bonanzas in advance of the picks and drills.
Could any of them have done so, the big
bonanza—the grandest of all thus far dis-
covered—would not have laid under our
noses in the middle of the city for nearly
eighteen years, trodden over and despised.
Not a sign on the surface or in the sur-
rounding ground indicated the wealth lying
below.

Women as Telegraphers.
The English government has employed
women as telegraphists since January, 1870.
Nominations to compete are given by the
Postmaster-General. The limits of age' are
“not under fourteen or over eighteen." They
receive eight shillings a week to begin with,
the highest scale of pay being thirty shillings
a week, and they work eight hours a day be-
tween the hours of 8 a. m. and 8 p. m. They
formerly worked in separaté‘galicrics, but it
was found desirable to place them in the
same galleries as the men and boys, and the
society and mutual influence has been pro-
dictive of btncilcial results. Tire female

assistants behind the counters of shops are

She parted from him with the old han-
kering for something better. What was
amiss? Must: it always be amiss? Had all
women this bitch, this jar, with the men
they loved ? Of course she loved him. Of
course he loved her. Why could not there
be the abandon and joy she had always
dreamed of in her girlhood when she read of
love ? ‘
“She” was Ruth Lindsay. You would
have called her a queen anywhere. Tall,
handsome—oh, so handsome !—-and still.

cheerful _; jo, one, but wise; loved by all 1101'
school companions, half “’Ol'bml’l’ml by half
the men, Ami Ruth had parted thus, dissat-
isfied at heart—though she was too proud to
own this—from Alfred Moshier. They had
been engaged, now several weeks, since they
crossed the ocean on the Par-thin.
“I will not worry any longish,” 'snid Ruth,
aloud. Shc girt herself for work. She went
down t) elli Mrs. Royal’s and washed the
baby, who needed it badly, aired the bed-
room while lIIrs. Royal sat over the fire.
She went to the French reading and laughed
her best and brightest as the professor read
{‘L’Ami Inconnu.” She came home, and
locked round her work-room for something
that would take her out of herself. “I will
talk with the newts and moles,” she said. I
will see what they are saying.”
80 she lifted her telephone from the wall,
called Caesar’s boy Pompey, and bade him
carry the heavy plates, and went down to
her dreaming-place in the garden. She sent
Pompey sway sank the plates herself, with
her trowel, in the border, and hogan to listen
to the endless sounds, which came in a
strange refrain, as grass grows, and dcws
distill, and crystals take form in mother
earth. She was soothed by the unrhythmed
music more and more did it rest her, when
suddenly.
“Taap, tap, tap—tap—tap, taapt—tap,
taap, tap—tap—tap, tap, tap—taap—long
and short, in tones no moles uses not root
of grass, sounded the _word “Dearest” to her
well—trained sense. “Fine-car,” himself, in
the story, never listened more absorbed.
“Dearest, dearest," the taps went on,
“answer—answer. now.—-MosniEB.-”. More
faint, but perfectly clear, came, “0. K. I»
am here—Wire open. , Your pet” “My pet:
and my darling," said Member, in answer;:-
“oh, I am dead bored—say something sweet
,to me.” “Poor old boy! poor darling dear!
where has he been ?" was the telegraph girl‘s
reply. “He has not been with his heart's
delight, he can’t tell you that,” tapped Mo-
shler. And Ruth, or Finears, threw the list-
ening cup upon the ground. She was one
too many in this teta-a-tete.
Moshler was an observer in the great
Tamworth Observatory. He was using the
time wire in this disgusting intrigue. Ruth
had hit upon Mr. Trowbridges’ curious dis-
covery, by which you can take, with the
telephone, anywhere from the ground, the
“return message,” as the electricians call it.
She sent her return message by mail to the ‘
faithless Alfred as soon as she reached the
house. Her mystery was solved. He did
not love her. And she—shefihad been trying
from mere loyalty, to love him. She wrote
her proud note of dismissal with absolute
joy: ~
She went to the reception at Mrs. Mandell’s

General Putnam’s Duels.
A good story is told of General Putnam,
the revolutionary hero, in Forn'ey’s “Anec-
dotes of Public Men.” He accepted a chal-
lenge and fixed the time,and as his antagonist
approached he was greeted'with a shot from
Putnam’s gun at thirty rods. 'As Putnam
was reloading his gun his antagonist ap-
proached and said: “What are you about to
do! Is this the conduct of an American
soldier and a man of honor i" “What am I
about to do '1’" was the reply of the General.
“A pretty question to put to a man you
intend to murder! I am about to kill you ;
and, if you do not fight in less time than it
takes old Heath to hang a Tory, you are is
gone dog." Of course the other turned and
ran away. The second aflair was with a
British officer who challenged him. Putnam
accepted, fixed the time and place, .and
when the Englishman found him he was
seated near a barrel, apparently containing
powder, smoking his pipe. The General
requested him to take a seat on the other
side. of the cask, and then set fire to inmatch
communicating with the contents of the
barrel. The officer locked at the burning
fuse and retired. As he moved off the
General said “You are just as brave asI
took you to be; this is nothing but a barrel
of onions, with a few grains of powder on
top, to try you by; but you don’t like the
smell.” ’

Tue N 1313.1on or Samaria—Even drawingr
rooms do not escape the curse; men whose
dress is accepted as proof of good manners
often carry into the parlors of their lady
acquaintances sickening suggestions of after
dinner cigars or cigarettes, while half the
men who go out of the theatre or opera
house between the acts come back again to
breathe vile odors toward people who never
did them any harm. There is much to be
said in favor of an occasional cigar, but the
habit of smoking should be kept within
decent bounds. Apples are offered for sale
as freely as cigars, and their flavor is gener-
ally pleasing, but if one man of every three
or four were to munch apples whenever or
wherever he happened to find a few mo-
ments of leisure and were to maka all places
redolent of apples the public would denounce
the custom as an intolerable nuisanca. When
a smoker finds that the tobacco habit impels
him to burn his favorite incense under his
nose wherever he is not strictly prohibited
from doing so it is time for him to sacrifice
his habit tosavc his manners—New York

Innnrnnmoara Dresden—It is not only
probable but certain that many cases of in-

activity by voluntary acts,'and perhaps by a

How Wmsxav Pun—Some years ago,
we had in our employ a mauwno ran out of
the office several times a day to buy a drink
of whiskey. Every time he went the cashier
was instructed to drop ten cents into the
drawer to our credit. At the end of
seventeen menthsthe man who had gone but
so often had drunk himself out of a situation,
and the draw, when opened, was found to
contain four hundred dollars, which we
loaned to a young mechanic at seven per
cent. interest. He used it to purchase a set
‘of tinncr’s tools. 0a the 16th of‘Nov.. 1870,
he returned it to us with interest, saying in
his letter, that he has now a wife, two child-
ren and property worth $5,000, The other-
fellow is a bummer, looking around for food.

The London Times declares that the de-
mand for “legislative chan’gc in reference to
the liquor traffic has become new so general
that we mhst make up our demands to what
ever experiments may be needed to satisfy
it." At the same time it gives the following.
optimistic view of the progress of temperance
as a social virtue:
“Every class is reforming itself as fast as
it can. Drunkenness has long ceased to be
a prevailing vice; in the upper sections of
society. The middle classes have shaken
themselves pretty well clear of it. The
better part of the artisan class has done the
same. The vice, Lord Fife declares, lingers
only in the lowest grades of the community,
where wages have risen of late years while
education has not penetrated. In other
words, the entire nation is becoming sober,
, though we must wait a few years more be-
fore the process will be complete," .
. .>—.—-—‘——
One of the discoveries of the temperance
reformation—perhaps the most important of
all—is, that for persons in health, and to be
used as a drink, intoxicating liquors are
never useful; they only serve to excite,
never to nourish and strengthen; and that
the habitual use of them is injurious and
dangerous, causing more suffering and pov-
erty, diseases and deaths, than any other
cause whatever. This is a late discovery,
and it it be true, as we believe it is, then the
practice of selling licenses for the sale and
use of it loses all its consistency, loses its
entire foundation, and becomes one of the
grossest and dost dangerous absurdities.—

The Birth of a. Kangaroo.
Just after Mr. Barnum had retired from
the ring in the Madison Square Garden, New
York, on Monday evening, where he had
announced to .an applauding audience his
' return from Florida in robust health, Mr. J.
A. Bailey came running in from the menag—
erie to see him. A few words were sponen
then Mr. Barnum hurried out after Mr.
Bailey. Those who were privileged to
follow the two showman found themselves
in front of the kangaroo cage. Inside of the
cage :1 pair of animals balanced themselves
on their hind legs and stout tails as ,upoh
three-legged stools and gazed out upon the
gathering group with mild-eyed speculation.
Apparently there was no other occupant.
“When was it born, John i” asked Mr.
Barnum of the keeper. 4
“I don't know,” said John. “I discovered
it only about gve minutes ago."
_While the keeper was speaking the con-
cealed mouth of the pouch, midway between
the fore and hind legs of the mother opened,
and a clear-cut, sharp-featured kangaroo face
appeared. The slim neck was turned toward
the visitors, and two little black, specula-
tive eyes began a study of the situation.
This was the only part of itself that it vent-
ured to show". From the top of its head to
its nostrils was about two inches. The
mother’s head was about six inches long.
When the throng which had crowded the
amphitheatre passed through the menageric
on its way to the street the new‘s soon spread
from one to another, and the happy parents
held a numerously attended levee; but the
infant, frightened by the noise and an hers
insisted for the most part on keepin its
chamber. Mr. Bailey says this is the only
kangaroo ever born in this country, except
one in Cmcrnnati, the mother of which had
just been brought from Australia. That one
lived only a few days; but the parents of this
one 'are both tame and acclimated, and Mr.
Bailey believes they will raise it.
“What,” asked the teacher, “was the
greatest obstacle Washington encountered in
crossing the Delaware ?” And the smart bad .
boy thought for a minute and then made an
swer, “The toll man. " _ .

A pair of Italian twins are now being ex-
hibited in Vienna. From the sixth rib down—
ward thc boys are grown together. They
have but one abdomen and two feet. The
upper part of the body is completely devel-
oped in each, and the intellectual faculties of
each head are of a normal character. All the
operations of eating, drinking, sleeping,
Speaking and thinking are performed by each
child independently of the other. Further
than‘this, it is quite possible for one to suffer
“‘1 millsposition without effecting the other.
The chlldren are in perfect health, and are
now over three years of age.
thle 0‘" knOWledge of the regions sur-
rounding the North Pole h b 1
extended by the cner as con greaty

modern explorers, comparatively time has
been done in the exploration of correspond-
ing portions of the southern hemisphere.
At the head of an American expedition
Lieut. Wifkes believed that he had establish:
ed the existence of an Antarctic continent;
and this discovery was verified a year later
by Sir James Ross, who found the extensive
Victoria Land, with mountains 14.000 feet
high and an active volcano. The expedition
now being fitted out for Antarctic explora-
tion under the auspices of the Italian Gee-
graphical Society, will, it is stated, he fur-
nished with everything necessary for a pro-
longed voyage, it being the intention of the
party, under the command of Lieut. Beve,
to winter in the polar regions.
The following experiment very prettily
shows the gain in weight by oxidation. A
handful of fine zinc filings is placed on the
scale-pan of a common balance, which is
then brought into equilbrium by weights in
the other scalepan. The application of t.
spirit lamp now readily inflames the finely
divided zinc, and as it is slowly converted to
‘ a cohesive mass of oxide the scale-pun will
descend, showing that in burning it has
gained in weight. ‘
It is claimed that more. rain falls now in
Nebraska than. formerly,and that this rainfall
is increasing with the march of settlement
and consequent cultivation.
_ By keeping the soil beneath charged with
moisture,forest regions tend to make gradual
and constant the supply of water to the
rivers, give uniformity to the flow,und hence
when forests are cut away, the rains reach
speedily the streams, making them liable to
alternate periods of wasteful violence and
worthless feebleness. The cutting away of
the forests has led, in the French Alps, to
uncontrollable floods? despoiled fields, and an
impoverished people; and, in America, to
annual seasons of dry mill ponds,an immense
sacrifice of available water power, and the
dcsertion of many a mill site. .
‘ In the tropics of the Old World the annual
rainfall is, according to Dana. about 77 inch., '
while it is 155 inches in South America. In
the Eastern United States, it h 40 to 50
inches; but west of the one hundredth
meridian,beyond the Mississippi to the Sierra
Nevadas, It is mostly 12 to 16 inches. The
annual amount in Great Britain averages 35
inches; in France, 20 to 21 incbees; farther
from the coast, in Central Germany and
Russia, only 15 to 20 inches; but about the
Alps, it is mostly 35 to 50 inches.
The researches of P. Plantamour have
shown that every rise in temperature is ac-
companied by an elevation of the ground,
and a fall of the thermometer is marketfiy
a_sinking of the ground level. The extent
of the movements is in some cases quite re-
markable.
Fragments of celestial bodies in the form
of meteors occasionally reach us from the
distant regions of space. These stones ex—
emplify the same chemical and crystallo—
graphic laws as the rocks of the earth, and
have afforded no new element or opinion of
any kind. .
A very remarkable deposit of petroleum is
described as existing in’ Venezuela between
the Rio Tara. and Zulia. Near the former
there rises a sand bank about thirty-five
yards in extent, and some ten yards in
height. On its surface is visible a collection
of cylindrical holes, apparently artificially
made, through which streams of petroleum,
mixed with boiling water, gush out with
great violence, accompanied with a noise
resembling that of several boilers blowing
off steam. The column of vapor that as-
cends from the spot would doubtless be seen
from along distance were it not shrouded by
the thick forest, to which the petroleum beds
that evidently lie underneath, give a perpet-
ual greenness and freshness of foliage.‘ From
one of these holes oil has been collected at
the rate of four gallons per minute. A very
curious phenomenon has been occasionally
seen in Venezuela, consisting of a frequent
lightning unaccompanied by thunder, which
is observable from the bar at the entrance of
the Lake of Maracaibo, and which has been
attributed to the vapor ascending from the
Cienega de Agua Caliente. It is more prob-
able that this appearance, called by mariners
“El farol de Maracaibo," is due to the in—
flammable gas that permeates the whole
district to such an extent that itis known by
the natives as "El Inferno.” There is no
doubt that the supply of petroleum is very
large, not only at this point, but in the neigh-
boring Republic cf Columbia, whcrgbetween
Escuque and Bettijoquc, the laborers gather
it up in bandkereblefs, which, when satura-
ted, are sqnerzd out into barrels.
Is that wonderful phenomenon; the aurora
borealls, accompanied by sound? Suchpis the
much—mooted question which is being reviv-
ed among British scientists. The evidence
of observers and writers from the time of
l‘icitus to the present day is quoted to prove
that the mystic light of our northern skies
produces a decided sound.
Pillows as Life Preservers.
In the new steel steamship Parisian,
recently completed at Glasgow for the
‘Ailen Line, and now nearly ready to make
her maiden voyage across the Atlantic, the
pillows with which the stateroom beds are
supplied constitute, in case of danger, an
efiectlve life-saying apparatus. These pil-
lows, which have been invented and patented
by Mr. Woods, superintendent of the vic-
tualing department of the Parisian, are made
of the hair of the moose, and are so con-
structed that in the hour of danger the pass-
engers can immediately fasten them around
their bodies in a way that will make their
sinking impossible. The pillows consist of
two parts, one to cover the chest and the
other the back, and the two portions can‘be
readily fastened by the passengers themselves.
Once secured to the bodies they cannot
be removed by the pressure of the water-
The end of a pillow supports the chin, and
therefore keeps a person’s head above water,
the whole contrivance will serve as a pro-
tection against injury from’ floating wreck.
The steeragc passengers of the Parisian will
all be supplied with them at a very moderate
cost; and thus fortified against danger there
would, in the event of anything serious hap-
pening, be no tendency on their part to in
dulge in the panic which‘so often breaks out
on such occasions.
Does any one, asks the London Truth, re—
memberabeautiful girl who went by the
nickname of “La Comete," and flushed
through the Parisian world during the last
year of the second empire? She was called
“Comet” on account of her exceeding length
and loveliness of' her golden hair. 'Theo~
plule Gautier wrote a sonnetto her, Cabanel
painted her portrait, Worth dressgd her.
and Leon Cugnot took her as the model of
his pretty statue, “La Baignsuse." Her real
name wasAdele Terchout. and just before
the Franco-German war broke out she de-
ciined an at of marriage from an elderly
duke, with a very ancient escutcheon- At
one time she owned one of the finest man—
sions in the Champs Elysees,- had twelve
horses in. her stables and »a bushel of dia-
monds in her dressing case. Last week this
dazzling creature died in a Parisian hospital
absolutely destitute, and the disease which
carried her off was the most hideous which
could befall a pretty woman—a. lupms some,
or cancer in the face, which totally disfig-
ured her. Like Zola's Nana, the only ves~
tige left of her beauty when she died was
her mumblelchalr. which measured nearly
l“ feet.
