Denver Tribune-Hcpnblictin : In no
place in the world perhaps nro so ninny
tales told of wonderful liltltlcn wealth ,
which fire the imagination , ns among
minors nntl prospectors. Around the
camp-Itrcs they are repeated , tiino after
time , antl every prospector has u store of
tlicin. None of the stories aru more fas
cinating than ( hu one of thn undiscovered
lode known as the "Mother of Gold , " or
Madre D'Oro , ns llio Spanish and Mexi
cans call it. Tlniro are thousands of pros
pectors in Ari/.onn andNcwiiml Old Mexico
ice who llnnly believe in it. The story
luii an ancient paternity which surrounds
it with u fascination that many do not
possess. It came frohi the Aztecs , and
they perhaps roroived it from thoToltecs ,
who preceded thorn. In the Aztec leg
ends wo are told Hint omo day Monte-
y.umu will return ( o earth , to lift his people
ple out of hluVery and lead them to vic
tory anil grandeur. When that day
comes ho will need vast stores of wealth ,
and tlio Mory goes thai the knovyledge ot
the existence of the wonderful fissure of
gold llio Madre D'Oro , which ho be
queathed to a few of his followers , will
supply the wealth required.

Somewhere there is a small valley , tlio
tale says , in southeastern Arizona or Old
Mexico. It is always described as being
about live miles long and two miles
broad , and walled in by towering moun
tains and almost perpendicular dill's ,
from 3,000 to 5,000 , feet high. In one end
falls over tlio dill's a beautiful stream
which then runs through the valley am
disappears in a cave at the lower end.
Through this cave is the only cntraneo'to
the valley , and it is hidden and protected
by desceiiilents of Montox.uma. These
Indians live near the entrance Id the
valley , and they guard the secret well ,
and would , if necessary , protect it with
their lives. Only three men in the tribe
which guards it ever know of the secret
passage. They are among the oldest
men In the tribe.Vhon one of them
diestho other two choose a man to whom
they confide the the secret. No one ever
knows who the three are that possess it.
Tlio third man to whom is imparted the
secret is led through the long and wind
ing passage which leads to the valley.
There the two who possess the secret
show him the ledge they have guarded ,
and which he must over after guard with
his life and honor.
The vallov , which is surrounded by
Mich stern anil bare ell ( Is , is u paradise.
Through its center runs the clear ami
beuilifulsrcamts : | ( ; ! banks are shaded with
beautiful trees ; its soil is rich anil
covered With grass , in which is
sprinkled a profusion of rare and
gorgeous Unworn , butterflies of countless
hues antl colors , anil briglit-plumagetl
birds of the southland Hit through the
delicious atmosphere ; the only reptiles
are the gold snakes , with their greenish-
yellow scales. Stretching across the
valley is tlio great ledge , .sinning in the
sunlight like a golden zone. It is said to
be five feet , ten feet , fifty feet ai
drctl feet wide. The gold c
great masses and nuggets , in a pure
white quart ! ' . , whose broken corners glit
ter in the sunlight like gigantic dia
monds. Tlio Mtream runs over the ledge ,
forming a little waterfall , and the spray ,
reflecting the color of the precious metal ,
seems to bo a golden mist. Growinp be
side the stream , below the waterfall is an
exquisite tree , at the base ot which lies
a great gold snake , ever watching with
uumoving eyes tlio treasure of Monte-
/.unia. It i.s the war god who guards the
placo. Gold in the ledge , gold in the
scales of the snake , gold m tlio color of
frv insects and birds , gold , gold , gold is the
f , " refrain of the story. The fearful preci
pices which surround the place , the tribe
V of Indians which live only to preserve
the treasure for their coming king , the
horrid ceremonies by which the secret is
kepi secret , has ail aided iu giving inter
est to the story.
It is not told as an Indian legend pnlv.
They tell of white men' who have stoo'd
on the high mountain und gazed down
into the vallny and scon its wondrou ;
wealth , The Mexican miners believe it
firmly , aud can cite a thousand reasons
or superstitions to support their belief.
Many u man has gone to hunt for it , ant !
probably many more will go in the fu
ture.

Another story , which has many cre
dentials of truth , locates a wonderful
gold mini ! on the plains of eastern Now
Mexico. It It said that n gold mine in
that region was discovered somewhere
about UfliO or 1C03 , and that in the follow
ing fifteen or twenty years it yielded
§ 00,000,000 in gold , estimated from the
amount of tithes paid lo the Konuu
Catholic church. In the insurrection 01
If ISO the mine was olosctt up , and all
traces of its existence destroyed us nuicl
as possible. After u century had gone
by the priests triad to find tins mine
records of whoso existence und richnesi
were found in tlio Spanish archives a
Madrid. Many n search is sitid to have
been made for It , but all wora fruitless

known as San Antonio , Tex , , nnd the
story gees that his followers , who. know
of tlio oxistunod of the lode , were nil

for thuir gold. The Staked .Plains of
Texas nro said to Imvo derived their

San Antono.
r.OSINtl TUB LOCATION.
The location of thu niinu was then lost
nnd has never boon discovered. Suvoral
ago , while General Lew Wallace , lute
minister to Turkey , was governor of Now
Mexico , ho discovered some historical re
cords of that mine. In thu old palace of
Santa Fo. which was used for 200 yoarH by
thu Spanish governors of thu province ,
and which since ( ho acquisition of Now
Mexico by the United States has boon
used for territorial ollices , court rooms ,
etc. , there were suvoral bushels of records
which had been put away in barrels and
never touched , except n some ignorant
governor burned them for kindling tires.
When General Wallace became governor
hu assorted and arranged thu ronmlnln < ;
records. He is an onlhusiaslio Spanish
student , anil ho found many a document
among them of priceless interest. Onu
of them was an account by a priest of his
visit to the wonderful gold mine. It told
of each day's journey , the number of
leagues traveled , thu character of coun
try passed over , and thu names of
the water-holes whore stoppages
were made. In that country , where
water is scarce , tliu springs ami water
ing places aru thu famous land marks.
The account tohl of thu virgin pure gold
iu thu quartz , which was cut out with
chisels. This was the- only manner in
winch the gold was obtained. Equipped
with the information given by the record
a search was madu for the mine , but it
was not successful. Out upon the dry ,
cactus-covered plains , men travoloa day
after day , but found nothing , -lleru ami
there on the brow of some low hill would
bo found an outcrop of trachyte , showing
that the country rock was Ingenious ami
in wator-washuil gulches oould bo found
au occasiouul trace of ore , but uo tracp
of the gold lode was discovered. This Is
the way the story goes. It Is also
rumored that General Wallace took oc
casion to have the records in Madrid ox-
tminpil for more information relating to
: he mine , and that his late quiet visit to
New Mexico win not entirely uncon
nected with another effort to discovcMha
richest gold mines of which history gives
any credible record.
WHITE ELEPHANTS.
How Otic Showman Got Even wltli
Another.
SI. Francisco Call : There .ire times in
a showman's lifo when his peaceful
thoughts are broken rudely , when the
glitter of spangles , the roar of the camels
or the squeak of the majestic jion is no
longer music to his delicate. Pink-edged
ear. It was on one occasion like this that
the writer , while strolling up Fourteenth
street in New York , saw the portly form
of 1'hlneas T , Itanium vanish within a
cab , and his handsome six and one-half
foot business manager , Tody Hamilton ,
turn from the cab after slamming the
tloor with a vehemence that betokened
ill-feeling of some sort. The writer walked
U } > to him and asked :
"Did you get out of bed wrong this
morning ? "
Tody smiled andsaid : "No , my boy , but
I'm not liking the job that the old man
has s < it mo at. "
"What is it ? "
"Whitewashing an elephant. "
"Ahal then the sacred white clenliant
is a fake , eh ? "
"No , sireo ; but come into the Merion
house anil sit down. "
We adjourned to the olllco of the Mor
ton house , lit cigars at Tody's expense
and ho proceeded with his narrative.
"It's this way. As soon ns Foropaiigh
heard that Itanium was bringing a sacred
elephant from India , he straightway
whitewashed one of Ids small elephants
and is gulling the public with what he
calls the only and original 'Light of Asia. "
This rankles the old gentleman a little ,
and now ho wants nn elephant colored so
that it will not-rub oil' . 1 think a bleach
ing process would do it , but it's a devil
ish costlv experiment. "
At tiiis instant Nr. G. B. Siccardi , bet
tor known as "Jack , " came strolling in
und cheerily greeted Mr. Hamilton , who
said : " 1 think" you are Ihe very man I
want to see. You are iu tlio hair-goods
business , arc you not ? "
"Yes , everybody knows that , " replied
Jack. "What do you \yant ; a wig "
"No ; I want an elephant bleached , to
show the public that Forepaugh's Light
of Asia is a fraud. "
"Stay hero a few minutes until I cot my
partner"untl Siecardi went for him and
returned shortly with Mr. Paul DoSpotto ,
whom ho introduced by saying : " Hero
is a man who can produce a bettor white
elephant than Foropatigh ever saw. "
It did not take long to make a bargain ,
one of the no euro no pay kind , and all
adjourned to Madison Square garden ,
where the animal selected for the experi
ment was driven into a large room at the
back of the garden. As she left she
heaved a sigh that was echoed by the big
fellow , who waved his trunk aud cars un
easily.
"Thai's her lover. " said Tody.
Sixteen nion went to work on the ele
phant immediately with hot water , soda
and ammonia , and worked in four hour
shifts for three days continuously. This
was for the purpose of removing the
"scums" of an oily nature , being the exu
dations from the skin that had hardened
and permeated the pores lo the depth of
three-eighths of an inch About four
times a day the writer visited the room ,
where n double rap admitted him , as the
bleaching process was carried on in
secrecy. At the end of the third day Mr.
Do Spolto pronounced the elephant sufli-
cicntly cleansed and the first application
of the bleaching wash was applied. Tody
sat on a soap box and held his breath ,
expecting a streak of dazzling whiteness
to follow the path of the crush , but he
was disappointed. At the end of the
sixth day Tody gave it up in disgust.
There the elephant stood as calm and col
lected as ever , eating hay and waving
her ears as thoiurh there had never been
a bleaching in the world. Tody did not
show up the next day , if ho had his heart
would have sang for .joy. On the morning
of the seventh day a taint tint of n pink
ish cray color was apparent and wo threw
up our nats with a shout and then went
out to take a drink. Four limes daily Iho
wash was applied until at noon on the
twelfth day Mr. Do Spotte pronounced
his job complete.
There stood her majesty , halo and
hearty , with a coat about the color of
skim milk , it having that bluish tint.
Every six hours from that time tno first
mottled spots appeared , the shin became
of a lighter tint , until Mr. Itanium was
called in. Ho looked at the elephant ,
passed his hand over her skin , then
rubbed it on his sleeve lo see if it came
oil' , but it did not. There was uo color
ing matter.
He turned to Messrs Do Spolte and
Siccardi and said , "Gonllcmen , you have
done well. You have accomplished what
no oilier man has ever done before. " Ho
Ihen handed ijtf.OOO , Iho price agreed
upon , and wo left her nloue in her glory.
The next morning when she was taken in
with the other elephants , her lover
looked at her , recognized her through
her transformation , but was wrathy at it.
Hunniii" his trunk along in the dirt , ho
gathered up about a barrel of dirt and
blow it all over her , as much as to say ,
"You are not of my kind. " This neces
sitated another cleaning and application
of the wash.
The bleaching liquid was peroxide of
hydrogen , , thirty grade proof , stronger
than any over made In Kuropo. aud was
specially prepared for the purpose by
Prof. Marchand , Iho head chemist of New
York city. An average of twenty gal

by hair-dressers to blciieh hair whitoand
it was only a speculation on the part of
Mr. Do Spotto as to whether it would
have the sumo ofl'ect on thn skin.
Thus it was thai Mr. Itanium vindi
cated his sacred white elephant and cast
ridicule on Koropangh's Light of Asia ,
the latter being bleached or painted a
dirty yellow color , the process of which
caused sores on the skin which newly in
sulted in thn Light of Asia being put out.

Get Along.
Now York Sun : As a rule It takes but
ix few days for a convict , no matter from
what social circle lie may Imvo come , or
what niny Imvo been his previous asso
ciations , to settle down to the level of tlio
criminal horde by whom he is surrounded
In a state prison , to fall with nt least a
good semblance of content Into the rou
tine of their common life. Ux-Alderman
Jaehno has done so already. Perhaps ho
did not have far.to fall morally , hut them
must have been .somethmgof a drop from
the conditions of physical comfort In
which ho was used to live to those that
are now the laws of his being. Hut he
accepts his fatastolidlyuncomplalningry ,
saying as few words as possible to'any-
body , and has already won the approval
of the keepers , who prophesy that ho
will make tin excellent convict. A letter
came to the prison yesterday aduresscd
to "Alderman Jaeline , I'risoh Laundry ,
Sing Sine , N. Y. " The envelope con
tained simply a circular advertising
starch. ( Jluiplniti Ktlgcrlnn , whoso duty
it is to open and pass upon all letters
that go from or come to convicts , de
cided that there was no reason why the
stupid joke should rcauh its object.
.It looK FcrdinardVardagood while
to settle down into being thn human
automaton that a model convict is ex-
peeled to be. Now he is much more calm
and contented , and goes along quitu well ,
running a small printing press that
strikes oft'labels for the various parts of
the stoves made for Perry & Uo.itho
prison contractors. So long as ho kicks
the treadle steadily , pays enough atten
tion to what he is doing to keep his lin
gers from being nipped by the form , and
sees that there is suHlcient ink on the
rollers , he may send his mind wandering
wherever ho will. In point of health he
was never better. lie attends the I'rot-
.estant services , conducted by Chaplain
Kdgerton. pretty regularly , and reads a
great deal in the evenings of the better
class of liction , and occasionally a moral
or even a religions book that is notlietlon.
so that the chaplain has some Hope of his
spiritual welfare as a consequence to his
present season of chastening. Mr. Ed-
"el-ton has had so many criminals to tell
him that their souls had found peace ,
and that they were resolved to load pure
and holy lives , and all that sort of thiiTg ,
that he no longer takes much stock in the
reformation of convicts until they prove
their good faith by their works after they
get out ; consequently ho is not really
confident that Ward will always be as
good as ho now is , but the worthy man
hopes so. Ho docs not forget that NVard's
father was a Presbyterian mmi.stpr , who
had been a missionary in lndiabut the bias
early training giyes to ministers' sons
can not be depended on.
Ward's cell is the nicest in the prison.
It is like all the cells , sniothermgly small
for a full-grown man , and the white
washed stone walls are not a promising
surface for such art decorations as lie can
command , so he deserves all the more
credit for what he has accomplished. His
bed ho has managed to swing up against
the wall , so that a ribbon's width more of
space is alFordud , ami it is pretty nearly
concealed by a patch-work silk spread ,
bright in color anil pretty in design ,
which has been provided with loops so as
to le hung up or spread over the bed. At
the head of his bed is a large photograph
of his wife and one of his child. Upon
the walls arc two large photographic
views of a residence sunbowered among
trees , each labeled "drove Place , Roch
ester ; Home of S. A. Ward. " Then there
are a number of cabinet-size views of
landscapes , reminders of nature's beau
ties that for years to come , may , for him ,
exist only in memory and hope.
The only cell at all approximating to
Ward's in style is that of Walter C. Allen ,
the clerk in an Eighth avenue store who
embezzled some $40,000 from his employ
ers , and by special invitation came hereto
to live for ten years. He is now a clerk
in Perry it Co.'a oiricc , enjoys excellent
health and seems quite contented. Ills
bed is spread with a covering of silk
plush , and upon his walls are a number
of photographs among which a photo
graph of his wife is conspicuous , botli by
its size and its attractiveness. A large
album of photogriphs occupies a place of
honor on a shelf at the end of his bed.
Another of the liigh-toned convicts is
the embezzler William R. Morse , who
used to bo a yacht club president , and a
society man , and no cod of a good fellow ,
as lots of people said. The keepers speak
of him with a liking that is almost enthu
siastic , and that , notwithstanding his
present position , has in it a tinge of re
spect. He is so manly , open and above
board , they say , so above all the mean
and dirty tricks of the common convicts ,
that they are all sorry that ho is In for a
ton years' stretch of this life.
Smoking tobacco was a luxury up to
within a tew months , and. oven yet the
line is drawn at cigars and cigarettes ,
which nro hold to be luxuries , as arc
fancy meerschaum pipes , narghiles and
chibouks , but any tobaccp , however good ,
with which a convict's friends may sup
ply him , may be smoked in a plain clay
or briarwood pipe , and so put down as
onu of the iioccfcsities of life. Jaohno had
no tobacco from the time ho was sent up
until Saturday , when some one sent him
some , and then he had no pipe to smoke
it iu until a kind ruportor gave him ono
on Sunday. Now he Is fixed. Ex-alder-
Won nifty ns well take a pointer from his
cx'rJOrii'neo and provide themselves in ad

into a habit of doing so. There Is o2 °

known as "Il ! ( * lloil , the barber , " whoso
latest fancy in the way of an alias is
( Jeorgo Watson who has just eomo up
thn river to seive his ninth term in this
prison. Tile longest term ho has had
to servo was live years. The average of
his sentences has been two years. This
time ho is only in for a year anil a half.

is so confident of soon coining back that

prison his raxors and other tools. When
no returns ho brings them out and Is Ret

upon which he scorns to feel that he.has
acquired n claim , Ho always gets fat in
prison. Ho certainly must like coming
buck here , for if ho did not ho would
endeavor to become more skillful In his
profession as a picKpocket , and so avoid
such frequent arrests ,
Another prisoner who has been hero
before , a famous one , too , Is the old king
of the forgers , W. E. Hrockway. Forty
years ago ho served a term in this prison ,
and now. when moro than sixty winters
huvo silvered his locks , he comes back
to thu dear old prison of his youth. It
agrees with him. Ho never has better
health than whlio hero.
There is hardly a probability that

DUFFY'S PUKE HAtT WHISKY.
What It IB.
It Is a superior brand of pure whiskey ,
Its chief merit being that ( t Is distilled by
a secret process discovered by us In 1800 ,
whereby every trucoof fusel oil ami other
injurious substances are eliminated. It la
the only whiskey cf the kind manufac
tured Iu the world tnd It Is the only abso
lutely pure whiskey on the market.
\Vlillo as a whiskey and for every purpose
to which a whiskey U put , cither as a
mcdlclno or drink , it Is unequalled by any
other whiskey , it Is.owiug to Its absolute
purity especially fitted for medicinal pur
poses. Another peculiar feature of It U
that it is the only whiskey that will stay
on the stomach of Invalids and debilitated
persons , and combining , as it does , a food
quality with that o ( stimulant , it Is the
only whiskey Unit ought to bo used in the
treatment o ( the stole ; and a still further
feature thnt In whatever quantity it Is
consumed , there are no after Directs from
it such 8 are experienced from the use of
other whlsUos containing fusel oil aud
other poisons. Heine a superior brand of
pure whiskey distilled from the very best
'Tid1" . It ) s of' necessity an expensive
nn7nT 'iw the dcumml created /or it ns
such as many of tlierh have the reputa
tion of keeping. 1'or tills reason we would
impress upon our ft Ion da the importance
of demanding oars as.the only pure whis
key , and we warn .f hem. In view of the
hundreds of analyses tills whiskey lins
received at the hands of the most eminent
chemists of this couhtry and to which we
openly submit at nil times , that where
any attempt Isj rnnd by unscrupulous
driJKcIsls to ptilrn off an Inferior nnd
adulterated whluky/ns .being as coed eras
as pure as ours/they are actuated solely
by mercenary idollvos. We repent that
this is the only whiskey of the kind in the
world. Wo are Ita dlscovercra and solo
manufacturers nnd wo challenge nuy ono
to produce a whiskey like it , either In
purity or excellence. Another thing we
would impress upon our friends Is not to
bo deceived by other malt whiskies , as
there are just as many grades of bad
inalt whiskies , equally as poisonous aa
other whiskies , nnd none of them are
pure. It is under this aulsa thntseveral
unscrupulous manufacturers are trying
to reap benefits from our name and pres
tige.

A TAUJ OF THE'SEA. .
0-ily an Iillot on Iloanl.
"I had been up the Hio de la Plata in a
British brig , " salt ! Charles Williamson ,
"and as we cume bnek { o M'j.'l'ovldeo ' to
finish our loading wo had to make con
siderable repairs above the water lluo.
There were ten or Uvelvo of us all told
when wo hauled out and wcru about lo
trip anchor tor homo , and of all 1)19 ) luinl
coses I over saw put a board a ship this
crow capped the climax. The eaptuin
and myself were the only two left of the
crow which had comn out from Liver
pool. Some of the men had tiled , some
skipped out , and wo had picked un ne
groes , Lascars , Americana , Englishmen
tind Swedes , just as wo happened lo find
thorn , until wo had a KprinkliiiK of every
thing under the sun , Wo had hauled out
info the harbor to Kober up the crow and
finish the repairs , when the captain was
taken suddenly ill. This was directly
after dinner , and ho was rowed oil' to
town to consult a doctor. The proper
thing , as it seonied to mo , would have
been to send and bring u medical man
aboard ; but things took place as I told
you.
you.Tho old man was no sooner clear of
the brig than the half sobered men broke
loose from their restraint. The mate was
seized and secure'd in his stale room , and
the mutineers , for such they had .now be
come , parrjed things with a high hand.
They riimmugcd the cabins and tlio stores ,
drank. theniafly.cH into a frenay , and , s
night 0,1)10 , ) on they hoisted out ' .ho .lolijl
boat , filled her vnlh plunder , nml nil de
serted the brig together. I had not
joined with them , and , but for having
found a safe hiding place they would
cither have done for mo or forrcd mo to
go along in the boat. As soon as they
were well away we took the dingy , which
had returned after leaving the captain on
shore , ami rowed in to Inform the old
man of what had happened. As the cook
went with the mutineers not a soul was
left aboard of the Clarence. It seemed
that the captain was taken much worse
after getting ashore , aud when wo found
him , which'was only after a couple of
hour. * , ho had n high fever and was out of
his head. The doctor said ho was in for it
for a month at least , and so Mr. Citrpeutor
that was the name of the mateanti my
self starteil back to the brig. We had
not yet reached our boat , when a sudden
and violent storm are < o , nnd it continued
during the entire night with such fury
that it was idle to think of leaving thu
wharf. During lltat storm a ship m tha
harbor was dismayed , a schooner dragged
her anchor and crushed Into a brig"tint !
thousands of dollars' damage was do note
to shipping. Wo were out at daylight to
look for thu Clarence , but she was no
where to bo seen. Thu crew of the dis
masted ship reported to have seen the brig
drive out to sea with the gale , und there
could be no doubt of her loss ,
"In a day or two we heard from the
mutineers , or at lea t thu long boat was
picked up at sou. bottom side up , with
every chance that not a man hail es
caped. Inside of a week the captain was
dead , and the mate shipped onu way anil
1 the other. I made a voyage to Rio
Janeiro and back again , and then I
shipped for a rim around the Horn , and
up the Chili coast. Sixty-live days after
the Clarence drove out to sea 1 was on
the American ship Henry Jordan , with
the Falkland islands bearing due west ,
and thirty or forty miles away. It was
mid afternoon , with a fair sailing brce/c ,
when 1 heard a man from aloft hall the
duck with :
" 'Dismasted hulk dead ahead and
about live miles away , sir. ' i
"Tlinrc was a general stir among olll-
ccrs and men , and every onu of us had
thu wreck under his eye long enough be
fore wo camu up to it. Shu was driving
broadside on , ma ts and jibbooui gone ,
and a tangle of wreckstulValongside , but
the hull appeared perfectly sound. When
wu had approached her within a quarter
of a mile the ship lay to and a boat was
lowered. It was my luok to bo sent along
and to bo allowed on board with the
mate. I had no sooner passed over the
rail than I recognized thu hulk as that of
the lost brig Clarence. The bulwarks
were steven in places , but not lifty dollars
lars damage had been done lo the hull.
She was dismasted , as I have said , but
she hadn't a quart of water in her hold ,
and her cargo had not been disturbed or
damaged. TL'hat was strange enough ,
considering how far away shu had drifted
aud the storms she had encountered , but
there was something stranger stijl. In
the cabin wu found a man in hiding a
while man and a sailer , about forty years
of age. Wo had to drag him out by main
force , but we could not get a word out of
him. He shrunk from him as if terribly
frightened and we had lo tlrop him into
the bout nuck und heels.
"Tho weather being pleasant , with a
prospect of its holding so , our captain
decided to pick up the derelict and take
her to the islands. Her steering gear
was in good order , and inside of thirty
hours wu had her securely anchored in a
sheltered bay in the Falklantls , and tweet
ot us wcro left aboard as shipkeepers.
The stranger we had found aboard was
taken along with the ship , but on the
third day , not havingyctspokcn or madu
a sign in answer to a question , he Hung
himself overboard and was drowned.
I am just as certain hu was not aboard of
the brig when the mate and I left her as
I am that I am alive. Wu had no such
man among tlio crew , nor could ho huvo
come off to the brig after we loft without
being seen. It is a solemn fact that he
must have boarded her in mid-ocean.
How ? From what ? How Ion } ' before
wo found him ? Was it the loneliness of
his solitary existence tlialdrovo him mad
or idiotic ? The land may have its mys
teries , but those of the sea overshadow
them. "

WASHING FON' ' QAY SOCIETY.
Aa Scon Through Bill Nyo'H Spec
tacle ? .
I have just returned from a polite and
recherche party here. Washington is the
hotbed of gayety , and general headquar
ters for the rechurchc business. It would
bo hard to lintl u bong onger aggrega
tion than the ona I was just to , to use the
words of a gentleman who was there , and
who asked uiu if I wrote "The Heathen
Chinee. "
He was a very talented man , with a
broad sweep of sknll and a vagtio yearn
ing for something moro tauuiulo to
drink. Ho was in Washington , ho sr.Id.
in the Interests of Mingo county. I forgot
to ask him whore Mingo county might bo.
Ho took un interest iu me , ami talked to
me long after ho really had nothing to
sav. Ho was ono of those fluent conver
sationalists frequently met with in society.
Ho used onu of thosuwcb-purfueting talk
ers the kind that can ho fed with raw
Roman punch and that will turn out
punctuated talk in links , like varnished
sausages. Being a poor talker myself
nud rather more iluont un a listener , I
did not interrupt him. Hu said hu was
sorry to notice how young girls and thuir
parents came to Washington us they
would to a * matrimonial market. I was
sorry also to hear it. It pained mo to
know that young ladies should allow
themselves to bo bamboozled into niati-
raoity. Why was it , I asked , that matri
mony should over single out thu young
und fair ?
"All. " said ho. "it is indeed rough. "
tto ttiou bruatiiud a sigh and shook the
folingo of the speckled geranium near
by uud killed an artificial catorpillinr
that hung on the branches. "Matrimony
is all right , " unid ho , "if properly
brought about. It breaks my heart ,
though , to notice how Washington is
used as a matrimonial market. It seems
to mo almost as if these hero young la
dies wurti brought lions like slaves and
exposed for sale. " I had noticed that
they went somewhat exposed , but I did
not know that they were for salu.
I asked him if thu waists of party
dresses had always been so sadly in the
minority , and 1m biiid they had. I danced
with a beautiful yoimg lady whoso trail
had evidently caught in a doorway. Shu
hadn't nnticqd it till she had walked out
partially through bur costume. 1 do not
think a liidy might to givu too much
f Jiought to hur npparol , noithur should
ghb fuul too much ttbovo her clothes. I
say tliiK In tliC kindest spirit , biicmusii I

woman. No family circle la foniplnlc
without a womau. She is like n glnti
landscape to the weary eye , Individually
and collectively , wonmrt iii a great ad
junct to civilization and progress , The
electric light is a good thing , but how
pn ! ( > and fcublu it looks by the light of a
good woman's ' eye. The telephone Is a
great invention , It is n good thing to
talk at nnd murmur into and deposit
profanity in , but to take up a coiivin'rifi-
tion mm keep it up and follow n man
out through the front door with
it , the telephone ha ? still much to learn
from woman.
It is said that our government oflicors
are not mitllcienlly paid , and I presume
that is the case , MJ it became necessary to
economize in every way ; out , why should
wive * concentrate all thuir economy on
the waist of a dross ? When clitwt pro
tectors are so cheap as they now nru , I
hate to sco ptopo ! biitlor , ami them Is
moro real siinermg , moro privation ami
more destitution purvading. thu Wash
ington scapula' and clavicle this whiter
than I over saw boforu.
But 1 do not' iiopir to change this
custom , though .1 sp.oko'to. several ja.dipo
about it , and asked Ili6m to lldnk it over.
I do not think they will. It seems almost
wicked to cut olV the best part of n dro. <
and put it ntthe other end of the skirt ,
to bo trodden under feet of men , as I
may say. They smiled peed hnmorodly
at 'me ns 1 tried to impress my views
upon them , but should I go there ng.iln
next summer nud mingle in the mail
whirl of Washington , where these fair
women are nlo mlnghui' in said mad
whirl , I preMimo that I will tind them
clothed in the same gaslight waist , with
trimmings of real vortobnu down the
back , Still , what does a man know
about the proper costume for woman ?
Ho knows nothing whatever. Ho is in
many ways a little Inconsistent. Why
does a man frown on a certain costume
for Ins wife aud admlrollon the first
womaiHio meets ? Win- does ho light
shy of religion ami Christianity nud talk
vcrv freely about tlio church , but got
mad if his wife is un infidel ;
Crops around \ \ ashington are looking
well. Winter wheat , crocuses ami indefi
nite postponemouts were never in n moro
thrifty condition. Quite a number of
people nro hero who are waiting to bo
continued , Judging from their habits ,
they nro lingering around hero in order
to bceomo continued drunkards.
1 leave here to-morrow with n InrRo ,
wet towel In my plui * hat. Perhaps I
should have said nothing on this dress
reform question while my hat is lilting
me so immediately. U Is seldom thai I
step aside trom the lieaten path of recti
tude , but last evening on thu way homo U
seemed to me that 1 didn't do much ulso
but ship aside. At thcso parlies , no
charge is made for punch. It is perfectly
free. I asked a colored man who stood
near a punch bowl and who replenished
it ever and anon what the damage was
aud lie drew himself up to hi full height.
Possibly 1 did wrong , but 1 halo lo ho a
burden to any one. It seemed odd to mole
lo go to a fir.st-clns dance and tind the
supper ami the band and the rum all paid
for. It must cost a gootl deal of money
to run this government. BILL NVK.
