Living just above the foothills and in
lie midst of the virgin pine forests of the
terras are a class of induatrioua people
ittlo known to the world. They live an
lolated , happy llfo far from the busy
rorld , of which they know little and care
; ES. These are the "ahakomakors. "
'hoy exist usually in couples , and make
heir home for , the time being whore the
neat sugar pine grows , and whence the
roducts of their labor can bo convon-
mtly hauled away. They are a jolly ,
appy lot , theao ' 'ahakomakora" of the

B
litablo lengths , and then la split into
lin boards or "ahakoa" by moans of a
oo and a mallet. The shakes sell hero
i the mountains at § 1 to § 4.50 per
lousand , and are always in demand. A
inkemakors' camp is one of the most
icturocquo scones to bo found on the
last , and the voluntary recluses who
lend year after year in these mountain
) litudes are the jolliest lot of bachelors
a earth. A majority of this almost nn-
nown race of men are old minors and

era hundreds of the best frontiersmen

Thla is 'Hungry Jim's' plao. " Before
could reply to this startling and in-

lough to oat , for if you atop at my

evening , who related the following In

romance. The telegraph toid a niungro
s'ory ' of the crime which was committed
last Fourth of July , but the romantic-
part of the affair remained untold. Said
Jim : "Did you notice a
toll-gate down the mountain ? A nUo

creek ? Yes. There ia whcro my old
mining pard , Frank Parotn , lived , and

The high prosBurerat which life IB main-

ill furnish an exhilaration which

If , I find it varying , and in the latter
aita have found myaolf comparing it tc

The electric phenomena may bo scon any
cold winter's day , when it is itiito
possible for people in ordinary physical
condition to light the gas by shuttling
rapidly acrots the ctrpot and holding the
: ingor to an opened gas burner , the gas
lighting as if by a llainc , and the electric
spark giving a distinctly heard crackle.
i have scores of times performed the
oat and Boon it done by many others - its
s not in any way dependent on pe
culiar constitution. What thoao physical
conditions may have to do with the general -
oral excitability I have noted ia not ao
clear , and is subject for future investiga
tion ; but I believe that the drive and
energy of American city lifo are to exag
gerated to bo the effect of merely physical
agencies except through the hereditary
accumulation of tendencies. The effect
produced on mo , coming newly into Now
York after a long sojourn in Kuropo , la , 1
imagine , greatly , but not wholly duo to a
kind of contagion , a nervous sympathy
with _ Iho intensity of lifo around mo.
That it ia not purely climatic iscloar from
the varioua offset In the different cltioa.

Walking up Broadway some tlmo after
my arrival I lind myaolf thrown into a
kind of nervous excitement so great as ,
to use a common expression in default of
a scientific ono , to make my head swim.
1 found.mysolf unconsciously stopping to
"sco it go by. " The atreoU are crowded ,
and everybody Booms in a hurry. The
s'rcam of omnibuses , draya , etc. , appa
rently never alutoa , and the sidewalks
are continually crowded by people who
are always in a hurry , and .tho tramways
in ahnoat every longitudinal street of the
city threaten to monopolize the travel ,
while four elevated railways send their
trains thundering overhead in a way to
make quiet people unoudurably nurrous ;
and the feverish haato of everybody and
everything Inevitably and immediately
infects the HOW comer. It is dllliRnlt to
sloop from the firat. Stiinuianta affect
the brain much moro than on Una side
the Atlantic , and 1 remember very
well a Yankee captain with whom
1 once crossed the Atlantic ,
a bon vlvant of the old typo ,
who assured mo that of hia own wino car
ried on board ho could only drink half a
bottle in New York , while ho drank a
whole bottle in Liverpool.

Uow Ho Tliwnrtcil n ( ii | : of Train
WroolccrB mid Kobhrrs ,
Albuquerque ( Now Mexico Journal.
From II. D. Forguaaon , Esq. , who
: amo up from the south on the Atchlaon ,
lopoka & Santa Fo passenger train
ITrlday night , wo learned of ono of the
most dastardly attempts at train wreck
ing and robbery that haa ever boon known
in the southwest. Mr. Ferguason tolls
the thrilling story with all the vim and
fooling of ono who waa present when the
affair occurred. Ho Baid : "Just after
train No. 102 loft Socorro , with J. D.
Hcdrick as con duo tor and James Skuao
na engineer , and when it had gone por-
liaps two miles , the train stopped , but
filmoat immediately started up again with
i trctnondouB jerk. After thia jerk a
promiscuous firing began from both sides
uf the track , but the train kept moving
an faster and faster. All the passengers ,
of courao , got dowi between the seats ,
and it looked for a whllo like a prayer
mooting. About fifty shots were fired.
Every car in the train waa hit and many
of the windows broken. The conductor ,
who stopped put on the platform , came
near being killed. One bullet passed
through a sleeping car window ever the
heads of two ladies , and waa flattened on
the oppoaito aldn of the car. "
The story of the affair was told Mr.
Forgusson by the engineer when they ar
rived at the next station , Said the on-
jinoor : "I saw ahead of mo an obstruc
tion on the right side , which consisted of
pile of stonoa fully 12 inchoa above the
track. I stopped , of course , and then
told the fireman to got down and remove
: ho stones. It waa moonlight , BO that I
: oiild she plainly. At the moment I
itoppod I aaw three men jump from bo-
lind a clump of trees , and pointing their
; uns at mo , they said : 'Stop ! Wo want
tou. Wo'vo got you. ' Quick as light-
ilng I saw our predicament , ano decided
irhat to do. 1 told them 'All right ,
lon't Bhoot , ' and then to the fireman ,
Drop down. ' I gave the throttle a jerk
vldo open and dropped down mysolf. As
: jerked they fired into the cab. I didn't '
: now whether wo should jump the track
T not , but 1 wasn't going to have my
lassongors robbod. The obstruction
lamagod the cowcatcher considerably. I
aw three men on my right , two on my
oft , and ono on horseback. "
The paasongora after realizing thereat
; roat danger through which they had
lasaod , and the daring proaenco ot mind
nd the bravery and decision of the ho-
oic engineer , made up a purao and pro-
ontod it to him aa a token of their appro-
iation , and nearly all thanked him per-
anally for risking hia own lifo to save
JB passengers from robbery. It waa a
plondid act , and James Skuao will go
own to hlatory as a real hero.
