BY KVE JOHNSON. A long train of white covered yroffons bail for weary weeks been elowlr Irail-iup- its ways toward the settintj sun. Many were the hardships endured, and dangers run by the hardy inri grunts composing the party. Thpy hwd been hired from comfortable eastern hoiiKH by roso-tintcd tales of a land wiiere nature's handiwork made small exorUon necessary on the part of man kind. But for weary weeks they had journeyed on, uud tho lands flowing with uiilk and honey was still "just on before." Their provisions were nearly gone, ammunition was getting scarce.the cattle and mules seemed on the point of giv ing out, and tho hearts of all were filled with a terrible fear of what the future might hold for them in suffering. Even sturdy Tom Knox, whom they had picked up in the Arizona country, and who for pity sake consented to guide them out of the sterile alkali region in which thoy were wandering, feared they could not hold out much longer. He knew u fertile region was near, and upon the afternoon of the day in question, they came upon a wide stretch of green grass covered prairie. "With audiblo thanksgiving the leaders urged the weary beasts along, and presently reached tho bank of a clear, swift flow ing stream. It was with difliculty the animals were prevented from rushing into it, wagons and all, but presently all had blaked their thirst, and turning they followed along its banks north ward for a few miles. Then they came to a spot which to these poor" wanderers looked like a garden of Eden. " Before them lay out-spread a wide, long valley, sheltered on three sides by the foot lull of an isolated range of jagged looking mountains. Here and there about the valley were groves of trees and shrnba, but Tom Knox would not halt until the farthest extremity was reached. There in a grove of gigantic cotton woods where the camp was located. The half starved mules and cattle were picketed out to feed upon the lush grass, and preparation for a lengthened stay was begun. A dozen men immediately set out in eaten of game, m which lorn Jvuox l.t ev the.-e hills abounded. Tho women, )or souIh, worn and weary by con tinuous jolting over the rough country, v.here there was never a sign of a road. flung themselves down upon the soft sod to rest until time to prepare the evening meal. The children rau about in joyoti3 abandon, and presently their loud shouting proclaimed a dis covery, and a few minutes later thoy came running into camp with their ! aims full of boxes and tin cans such as ' I ii if nvwl rnfj rsk tMlf Ufa 111 These Tom Knox proclaimed suro evidence that the grove had been lately civil nied bv another party, and, upon t examination of the spot, asserted they hi'.d not been gone above two days. "While pursuing this examination he picked up, at some little distance from the camping ground, a richly-bound blank book, such as men of wealth carry. On the cover was tho name of John Owens, and the address, Los Angeles, Cal. Upon opening it most of the leaves were found burned away. There was only here and there a part of some business entry, and on one leaf the words "last will and testament" and farther down the same leaf a part of two signatures, "Shultz and ke Hines." Its having been picked up on the im mediate bank of the beautiful spring which was the source of the stream, the name Burnt Book Spring was at once conferred upon it, aud the queer cog nomen clings to the village located I there to this dav. Iy province as a faithful chrouicler of passing events is to l el ate to you the history of that Burnt Book. Some years ago, it is not necessary to Bay how many, there lived in the city of Los Angeles a very rich merchant named John Owens. He was a hand some man of middle age, and from his courteous, gallant ways was universally popular among both sexes. He as supposed to be a bachelor, and his magnificent home was presided over by his sister .Mercy, a sweet-faced, sad-eyed woman of about 30. It was hinted there was a sad story connected with her past, but no one in the city of the angels knew anything about it. There were two other members of the household, both orphan nieces of John Owei.s. The oldest, Xell Owens, was the daughter of his eldest brother, whom he had sent word to jeiu him in the far Southwest and take a partner ship in his enormous business, hoping thus to secure a fortuue for both. Henry Owens had joined a wagon tram at Santa Fe, with his fair daughter and what of his means he had been able to turn into cash in so short a time. The train was once attacked by road agents, and all their valuables taken away, and later on in a sharp light with the Indians Owens had leceived a wound which caused his death soon af ter their arrival at their destination. John Owens was profoundly grieved at this unfortunate ending of which had promised so much to his brother's ad vantage, and made the grieving daugh ter's future his care, promising his dy ing father she should be well provided for. For a long time the girl Mas pros trated by a low fever, caused by tho hardships she had undergone and the shock of her father's death. But after a time she fully recovered, and then the brother and sister wondered at the change her sunny presence made in their erstwhile silent house. Thcv had learned to love her very dearly, when, a year later another mem ber was added to the family in the per s n of Olive Dane, daughter of Johu Owen, only sister. Her parent's sudden dea h by an accident left her quite peu-nitC--, which was a terrible blowto one i f her haughty, intolerant spirit. She w- '-ear Nell's age and their uncle aMi aant hoped the two girls would be great friends. Noll was so sweet tempered, and of so open and sunny a disposition this might hate been the case but for a sad trait in the new comer which Nell was not long in discovering. This was au insane, never quiet jealousy of every ikmIt more favored, or better provided J for than herself. With the beauty of an angel she had t':e heart of a demon; with the ability I f becoming great and good, she cho-e , most deliberately to dedicate her fair . i e-s to evil, and my story is of the re &ulta of her machinations. No where could you have found two greater con trasts than these girls whose circum stances were so similar. Olive, pink and white, with a wealth of yellow hauj Nell, a rich brunette, with hair of a.nritty brown. Olive had gif.j-fcycs, capable of expressing brry pas-ion" of her heart Nell's feyes were a glorious brown, deep, unfathomable at times when their owners heart was most stirred, yt with a lurking laugh seeming r.hvays hidden in tLelr depths-. Oiiva wa3 petite, and moved always with the alow sinuous grace of the ser pent, or the stealthy grace of a panther. Nell was quick, and often energetic in her ways. Immediately upon her entrance in the family Olive began an unceasing scrutiny of both aunt and uncle, to de termine which w3 to be Ihe favorite, she or Nell; felie had hated the girl be fore ahe saw her, because John Owens had spoken of her in loving praise, when he told of her presence in his home. "First or nothing" was the ruling passion of Olive Dane's life, and she vowed to usurp her place in her un cle's heart and well, when she saw Nellie's sweet face, and merry, joyous ways, she knew she had a formidable rival, but it only made her the more resolute to succeed. Accordingly she began by making hnrstilf necessary to their comfort, by a thousand little attentions, many of which it had been Nellie's pleasure to do before her cousin came. Nell was ut first indignant, and then grioved at see ing herself so resolutely set asido, but after a time drew into her shell and al lowed Olive to have her way unques tioned in all things. Mercy and Johh Owens were so thoroughly good, and so unsuspicious of the bent for evil that existed in kit tenish Olive Dane, that they never mis trusted why Nell grew so quiet and re served, and lived so retiringly. And too, they could not understand why her generous allowance, so lovingly prof fered, was almost invariably refused. They did not know how many times she had been told in a polite and unspoken way that she was an interloper and a beggar. Aunt Mercy delighted in buying gifts for the two girls she loved so well, and could not understand why they were so frequently refused with a low spoken, "Give them to Olive." Olive would ac cept them with a sweetly worded re proach for Nellies ingratitude. A scorn' ful glance eves would stood. For because sho would cause her to bear it all in bl- lence. Nell fully understood that it was her uncle's millions Olive was scheming for, but as she viewed him in his glorious prime, she exulted in the fact that, barring foul play, it would be long years ere her cousin would handle the money. And in those long years, she, herself, would have opportunity to re gain her old place iu his heart, for she knew sooner or later Olive's nature must become revealed. As things now were she was content to wait, but a change was coming in a way she had not dreamed of. They were at breakfast one morning when a servant brought in the mail. All were busily engaged with their let ters, when John called to his sister, "Listen, Mercy," and read aloud: ai)EAU-GuAEDiAK: Nothing preventing.

Mercy looked pleased, but the girls were puzzled, and noting this John Owens explained. Ross Emerson and Karl Shultz wero wards, ot whom he had had the care for years. "Two noble youug fellows," he added, and a pang rent Olive's jeal ous heart as she saw tho glow of affec tion on his handsome face when he spoke of them. "Come to think of it, John, people have a notion of leaving their children to you, as if there wore no one else they thought worthy," said his sister, with a loving glance at the noble face opposite her. "When cur boys come our household will be complete" was all he answered, but he glanced lovingly from one to another of the three beautiful women. Time went swiftly by, and at last the youug men arrived. The iustant Olive Dane met the glance of Karl Shnltz's black eyes she knew she had found a kindred spirit, a worthy coadjutor in all her schemes. He was German by birth, but she made one tremendous mistake just at the beginning, which he was careful never to rectify. That was in regard to his position. In reality he was quite depeudent .on John Owens, but she imbided the idea iu some way that he wa3 very wealthy, and his lordly manner and lofty ways served to confirm her in her mistaken belief. Eoss Emerson, on the contrary, she imagined poor, and when tho merry. light-hearted fellow fell head over ears in love with charming Nell, she only laughed scorn fully over it, and very kindly let them alone, much to Nell's satisfaction and comfort. It was a very happy company gath ered in the old Hajose mansion,., and one day in the latter part of May. Uncle John suggested a long camping out expedition in the mountains to the north of San Bernardino County. Tho proposal was "received most enthusiasti cally, and preparation at once began. Two weeks later we see them in camped in a broad, green-tree dotted valley, beside a glorious spring of pure, sweet water. High around them tow ered massive foot hills, and beyond the.-e rose the jagged peaks of the isolated range on whose borders they had halted. An old hunter ,.,,!

So thev set off in the gayest spirits imaginable one fine morning, leaving the camp in charge of the ladies and the half dozen servants they had brought along. The four men found sign of the mon- sterthev sought within a mile of camp. Thev followed the trail for hours, and then lost it on one side of a deep valley whose sides were c vered by jagged, broken rocks tumbled about in the strangest disorder and confusion. Here John Owens sat down hot and tired, and the others spread out over the valley for 6ome distance, in hopes of lecovering the trail.

He eavo him self up for losl then, for, following up his attack, he caught Owen's leg in his teeth, with a blood-curdling roar, and shook him as a terrier would a rat. As his teeth crunche.1 through, tho : lesh th wretched, man fainted, and but or Jake Hine's opportune arrival would mve been torn limb from limb. Half a dozen well-aimed shots laid the mon ster low, and then Hine3 examined into the wounded man's coudition. At first he tlicught him dead, but at length signs of life rewarded his ministrations. Picking Owens up, Hines carried him down to where a stream of water splashed noisily along, and soon was pleased to see him recover conscious ness. "Shall I have to go this time, old man ':" he asked, speaking with much diiliculty. "I'm afraid so, sir," with a dismal shake of the head: "Set me up- and give me my pencil and that blank book in my pocket," he ordered, and grumbling over the risk, Hines obeyed. For a few minutes he wrote rapidly, his right arm being the uninjured, one. While he was writing the two young men appeared, and Jake went to meet them and explain tho terrible ending of their hunt. Owens saw them, and in a faint Voice called to Jako and Karl Shultz to come and sign what he had written, saying it was his last will and testament. They signed, aud he exacted a prom ise fro"m Karl to see its provisions faith fully carried out. As Karl promised, Owens settled back to all -appearances dead. As they stood about in sorrowful silence, a loud scream in a woman's voico rang out from among the rocks some where above them Nell," gasped Boss Emerson, and he ) dashed rapidly up the hill followed b' both Karl aud Hines. lieturning half au hour later after a fruitless search of the rocks, what was their horror to lind John Owens' body had disappeared. Search as they might no trace of it ever could be di-covered, and the next day they returned to camp with their dismal talc. To their further undoing, they found the camp-iu an uproar, and Nell Owens missing since the previous noon. She had wandered away from the pmg here, there, everywhere, but after a week spent in fruitless indeavor, they broke camp and returned to their now dosolate home. The evening before they staited, Karl Shultz and Olive Dame wero walking by them-elves along the brink of the large pool tho 3pring formed, and tet ting out on its long journey "some where." They hadbeeu talking earnestly, aud Karl in the course of conversation related the making of John Owen's will, and his picking up the book near where the body had disappeared. Olive listened eagerh "Did you read the will?" "No, tho time has not yet come." "Give me that book," "bhe demanded imperiously, and he did so at once. "I am going to read what he has written before it is too late." "Too late?" he echoed questioningly, but she did not reply. She was heaping up a quantity of dry leaves, and when they were lighted, crouched beside them and holding the book in the glare read. "I. John Owens, being of sound mind, but in fear of approaching death, do declare this my last will and testament. I hereby acknowledge Boss Emerson as my dearly beloved son, aud inheritor of all my fortune, barring tho following benuests: To my dear sNter Mnncy, the" sum of $250,01)0. To each of my dear nieces $10,000 as a marriage por tion, aud to Karc Shultz, also tho son of my dead friend, $10,000 to start him in business. Signed John Owens. ,.... Ki:l S'II-ltz, Witnesses, Jake n,xi:s When she had finished reading Olive broke out wrathftilly. "Ten thousand, indeed, I'll show him." Catching the book by the covers, she shook the leaves loose aud before Karl could hinder her, even had he been minded too, she had held it in the blaze of the fire. When the leaves were shriveled and blackened she flung it from her. aud turning, faced ler ! lover with a wicked, triumphant gleam on her lovely face. "Aunt Mercy and I are now the only heirs to Johu Owen's wealth." "And you will be my wife," he as serted. "Yes. when vou so desire." Thus it transpired when the estate of j the late popular merchant was semen, and the triumphant Olive entered upon her rich inheritance, there was a quiet wedding, and the two set up a graud establishment in auother quarter. a f Aforov ,.,! ll.,- nnntiiiiioil on at . the old home, both living in hopes that the mvstery of their dear one's f.ito ' -vw- -. -.,.,. - --" might some dav be unraveled. A faint, yet unmentioned hope yet lived in both their hearts that dcath'had not forever parted them. So hoping, expectant, they lived on. Boss had found himself obliged to take a clerkship in order to susiport himself, and was still surprised over such a turn in his affairs. The loss of his dear uncle and the girl he was learn ing to love so dearly, was a far greater blow than the loss of fortune, however, and the work served to occupy his thoughts aud prevent his brooding. Time ran on until three months were gene. Then one evening as Boss and Mercy Owens sat together, talking as , usual of the absent ones, the door opened and a white-faced, trembling . servant rushed in "Oh, Miss Mercy!" he gasped, 'Miss Neil and Master Neither heard anything further he l might have to say, for both rushed into the hall, to be confronted by the two so long mourned, and another.

It was he and his friends who, com ing across what they thought John Owens' dead body, had carried it to their cave to give it Christian burial. To the intense satisfaction of his old time friend, it proved to bo no dead body, and he had carefully nursed the injured man back to health, aided by the fair Nell who was flung down a dark hole in the side of the mountain by her treacherous cousin Olive. The place proved to bn tho back door to the camp of Torgen's party and the insensible girl was Lund, and happily, was uninjured save a few bruises. They had just arrived in Los Angeles, and John Owpns, was exceedingly broko at the way things had gone. Still all was now well. l?oss was proud and dolighted to lind a guardian he had so loved was his father, and when Nell promi-cd to be his wife, his happiness was complete. So one day there was a double wed ding in the old Protestant Church around the corner, and that completed the romance of Burnt Book Spring. A 1'riiicu Win V.it.

O'e Hti'l's Imlepriitleiici-. The late OIo Bull, the well-known violini-r, was perfectly fearle-s of con sc.piences when his self-respect was touched, sas Chamber Journal. As an example of this: The Grand Duche-s of Mecklenburg gave the mu-i-e'mi n totter of lccommcudation to her f u f, Ki of pru,b;;lj afterwaid ,, ,-.' m-;ii:. the Emperor William. With this he went to Berlin, where, as directed, he called first on the Sup erintendent of the Boyal Opera Huse, to whom he stated his mission. That gentleman was so patronizing that Bull could hardly stand it; but eventually an hour was fixed on the following day J-.r another call at the oj era hou-e. The i violinist, with his usual punctua ity, piesented himself at the hour, deter mined to stand no nonsense. "Where is your violin?" demanded the Superintendent. "Iu the case," ic -.ponded Ole Bull, coolly. "And where is the case?" "At the hotel." "But did I not tell you to play for me: "Excuse me, sir," was the answer; did not think you were in earnest, plav either for monev or honor, and in this ea-e neither is in question." The mauager was piqued, and he re- J plied, sharply : I cannot present yon to his Majesty without having heard you." "If the request of tho Grand Duchess is not a sufficient recommendation to his Majesty, her father, I a:n content to leave the city," which lie did that day. It is all veiy well, of course, for ua to try to improve our fellow men just as much as we can, but if it wore not for lioir Inllinu mill f. .ilcnecsr-'. wc Hii"ht not be able to realize si well just how- good we are ours ".

Some of the best performances of leg erdemain, or slight of hand, are not seen bu tho stage. It is much easier for a prestidigltatcur, standing several feet distant from his audience and on a higher elevation, to perform tricks to deceive tho eye than when he is in the midst of a company so closely grouped about him that ho can be touched by an out stretched hand. 'Professor Hermann is probably the most skillful of all perform ers in close company, but there aro others who are proficient to a remark ablo degree under such circumstances, and they aro not all professionals. A few nights ago a little party sat at one of the tables of the Casino roof gar den. Among them were Albert Aronson, Captain Brainbridge, a few newspaper men and McCloud McKesson, a young amateur, who was amusing the party by some clever tricks. Mr. McKesson would allow any member of the company to tie any kind of a hard knot In a handker chief, which ho would instantly cau.e to become untied by merely snapping It with his finger or slightly shaking the handkerchief. Taking a silver half dol lar in one hand, he apparently passed it beneath a hat on the table. When the hat was lifted a lemon was found instead of tho coin, which Mr. McKesson then removed from Mr. Aronson's vest pocket. After several other tricks had been per formed Mr. Aronson esnied Professor Herrmann at another table. "By Jove!' I... .ir..l.i,r1 'I'll lil.-o in if lli-rr. III 14V,IUIUIIU, ....v .w .-. .- - maun can untie knots as MeivCM-on docs." The professor came over to the table at Mr. Aronson's invitation, and Mr. McKesson tied au extremely hard knot in the handkerchief. Mr. Herrmann looked at Nr. McKesson quizzically for a moment, threw the handkerchief in the air, caught it as it descended, and the knot wa& there no longer. By this time a large crowd had gathered about tlie table, and for Several minutes the Jwo performers kept their impromptu audience laughing. Suddenly, no one could tell how, Mr. Ilerrman's russet shoe appeared on the table. No one had seen him take it from his foot, but there it was on the table. Then it disappeared, and was found a moment later in some body's hat. Somebody then had it under his coat, lio person present being able to discover how and why it went. A shoe is too large an article to be con cealed in the palm of the hand, and tho feat, which is known as palming. hav ing been performed in the near presence of at least thirty men, seemed almost phenomenal. Among the other tricks by Mr. Mc Kesson was one that he said no one else could do. Taking a sharp knife he ap peared to make an incision In his thumb. The blood flowed freely and fell in rapid drops to the floor. Wiping the blood away with his handkerchief, Mr. Mc Kesson exposed the thumb again, and offered to treat the party to wine if any one present could detect even an abra sion of the skin. The blood had stopped flowing and the skin was unbroken. An other trick was heartily applauded. .Mr. McKesson placed four little hits of moistened paper on the narrow blade of a small knife, two on each side. He then wiped them off one at a time, show ing the blade clean. He then turned the blade over and the bits of paper were there again. Turning it again they had gone, and they appeared to come back and disappear at every turn of the blade. The movement was rapid, and when he stopped all the bits of paper were on the blade as iu the h'rt place. Prof. Herrmann said he liked to see am ateurs so clever. A'cie Vorl; Tribune. The EfTccts orMcntal Kxtianstion. Many diseases, especially thoso of the ner vous system, aro the products of daily renoued mental exhaustion. Ccsiucss avocations often involve an amount of mental wear and tear very prejudicial to physical health, and the profea- i Bions, if arduously pursued, aro no lns d"ttruc tive to brain aud nerro tissue. It is olio of tl'e most important attributes of Ilostetter's'Stoiu- ach Bitters that it compensates for thi- unduo loaa of tissue, and that it imparts now energy to tho brain and nerves.

Several months ago a chewing gum factory at Cleveland, " O., conceived the idea of making a new brand of gum, wrapping it iu imitation 5." greenbacks, and calling it 'Greenback Chewing Gum.' It was put on the market and made a hit, large lots being sold. A government detective who chews gum bought a stick of the brand and he at once saw in the imitation $." bill a vio lation of the statutes of the Cnitcd States. He notified the treasury depart ment at Washington of his discovery, and this telegram was sent out to all the district secret service officers: 'Green back Chewing Gum' has a wrapper that is a violation of section 5.130.
