Hundreds of new scttlers are clearing brush and planting orchards; the real pioneers have moved back into the pine forests and the railroads are pushing into their last retreats. [ hunted up ‘‘old man Purm” the other day. He had heen the only blacksmith of the Stillwater on week days and the only traveling Bap- tist preacher on Sundays, says a corre- spondent of the New York Evening Post. He had owned a quarter-section of land on the creek and lived in a cubin there. He sold h nim for a couple of hundred doliar and t‘moved further back.” *Do vou know,” he said to me, “them fellows I sold to has got it all ploughed an’ fenced, an’ the bresh cleared, an’ folks sy they’s making money there?” There was a tone of mingled surprise and indignation in the old man’s voice. Hisiden of land was to own a big piece, have i fow hogs and cattle, plant a dooryard full of pmks. four-o" clncl(u and red roses “for Mis Parm,” and slave in his log blacksmith shop on the creek for the small sum that they mneeded’ for groceries and clothes, It was in the middle of November, this year, that T revisited some of thu well known places in the Shasta foot- hills, and went on to the higher moun- tain region. The weather was delight- ful, und it is certain that theattractions of the Mount Shastu region for winter tourists have not received sufficient at- tention, Betwe Redding and the town of son’s is Straw- berry valley at the base of Shasta; the * rise in elevation is 8,000 feet: Aeme, the next station, 15 8,902 feet above the sea, or about four bundred feet higher than Sisson’s. A wonderful pile of solid gx'unlw. “Castle Rocks,” southwest of Sisson’s, rises 4,000 foet above Strawberry valley, and below it lies Castle lake. The real Shasta region may be said to begin at the mouth of Pitt river and the famous fishing stream of the McCloud, and to continue to Kdgawood, a distance of about eighty miles. From Sisson’s the mountains and pines extend west to the coast redwoods of Humboldt and east to -the luva bedsof Modoc. The pines fill the mountain valleys, they clothe the lon runreu of hills that rise hipher an higher -in buttresses about the great peaks, and they grow almost to the line of perpetual snow. « Strawberry Valley is the pivotal int. The principal mountains about t rise from 0,000 to 11,000 feet above the lloor of the valley,and contain the sources of six large rivers and innu- merable -tributary streams. Large streams, ice cold and clear, burst out of the mountain sides, sometimes in water- falls of fifty feet or more in hoight. Here, especially in Shasta, are the reat water reservoirs of northern Cal- fornia. If Mount Shasta could be sawed off at the 4,000-foot level, or 500 feet above the vulla\' the oval plain thus made would be eighty milesin cir- cumference, - The year just closed was one u{ the most prosperous 1 the forty yeurs’ ex- perience of that grand old corporation, the Glens Falls fife insurance compauy.

The Famous Preacher's Fen Portrait of Her Darh, 1 never write or speak o woman but my mind wanders off to one model—the aged one who twenty-four years ago we put away for the resurrection. About eighty years ago, and just be- fore their marriage day, my father and mother stood up in the old meeting house at Somerville, ,and took upon them the vows of the Christian, writes Rev. 'I'\ DeWitt Talmage in the January Ladies’Home Journal, Through a loug life of vicissitude my mother lived harmlessly and usefully, and came to her end in peace. No child of want over came to her door and turned empty away. No sorrow came to her but comforted. o one asked the way to be saved but she pointed him to the cross. - When the angel of lile came to a neighbor’s dwelling she was there to rvejoice at the starting of another immortal spirit, When the angel of death eame to that dwelling she was there to robe the departed . for the burial. ‘We had often heard her, when lead- ing family prayer in the absence of my father, gay: ‘'O Lord, I ask not foy my chlldrun who least houor. but I do ask that they may all be the subjects of Thy comforting grace!” Her eleven childr brought into the kingdom of God, she had buvone more wish, and that was that she might see her long.ubsent mis- sionary son; and when the ship from China anchored in New York Lx\l‘bm‘, and the long-absent one passed over the threshold u}‘ his paternal home, she said: “Now, Lovd, leitest Thou thy servant depart in pence, for my eyes have seen thy salvation.”” The prayer was soon answered. It was an autumnal day when we gathered from afar, ahd found only the house from which the soul had fled for- ever, She looked very natural, the hands very much as when they were employed in kindness for the children, Whatever else we forget, we never for- get the look of mother’s hands. As we stood by the cuuket, we could not hel[) but say: ‘“*Doesn’t she look beautiful?” It was a cloudless day when, with heavy heurts, we carried her out to the last resting ‘place. The withered leaves crumbled under hoof and wheel as we passed, and the sun shone on tho Rari- tan river until it looked like fire; but more calm and beautiful and radiant was the setting sun of that aged pil- grim’s life. No more toil, no more tears, no more sickness, no more death, Dear mother! Beautiful mother! ‘“‘Sweet is the slumber beneath the lm] Whilethe pure spirit rosts with God.' With such a mother as an example, is it strange that I should always have cherished the most exalted estimate of woman and womankind Auction Sale.

According to the letters received he from bis friends Vi the voyage that Yong remained b i deep [hn\whl. save for an oce ehrnest chat with another good -looking young Chinaman whose name is yet a profound sceret. * In the port of Hong- Kong.Yong and his newly made ‘friend Qisyppeared. o he story as told here among the Chinese is that Yong and his.compan- ion put up at o first-class Chinese pub- lic house under assumed names. The younger of the Lwo became the elder’s valet and made the proprietor under- stand that his companion was a Manda- rin recently commissioned to the United States to inspect railroads, and that he was on hie wayto Pekin to report, The effect of this was to bring the employ- es_of the house upon their knees. In arly 200 hundred men body guard, secretary, X\lu\chch totne per- yin,”or high official, on ajourney. e A AT R to order in solid beaten gold, 1t took more than one-haif of hi:i fortune, but it inspired confidence. To each of his 200 follow: he advanced a haif month’s wages, which means #2 apicce. In a week Yong setout in agorgeous sedan chair, carried upon the shoulders of eight able-bodied Chinam&n, for Pekin in the character of Khi Chong Wong, the uncle of the emperor, who seldom leaves the capital. He is a personage that can be soen only by vicerg and hose under these ranks name only. The bogus Khi Chong Wong began on the city of Soon Chu in the Providence of Kan'Si, The prefect was notified by couriers that his 153 lency Khi Chong Wong would probably need some ready cash for necessury expenses, us is custo- mary for all members of the imperial household. who never carry money while traveling. The frightencd “Chefoo,” with a force of gaily clad officinls, went out of the city to meet Khi()huug ‘Wong, and the next morn- ing the “(fhuh)()" upon his knees handed to the bogus prince $50,000 in gold bricks us the only available cash 1n the public treasury. The noxt city was Lin Kiang, where the prefect gave up $25,000, While in Sho Hing the R et suspicious, and nsked his Bxcellency questions which so offen- ded the impostor that he forthwith dis- missed the prefect and sent him out of town while the impostor plundered the city treasury, Other towns were laid under contribution in the same way un- til one day Yong and his companion aisappeared. The strangest part of the Whola thing was Ehetatnn body guard were as completely deceived as were the prefects., The discovery of the fraud was not made untii the Chefoo of Ly Chu called upon the Viceroy of his Providence, and the latter telegraphea to the capital to Khi Chong Wong himself. OF course the latter had not left the capitai for years, A big reward is offered for the Tmpostor’s apprehension, and if caught he will receive the *‘Ling Chi” punish- ment—that is, he will be cut up alive into eighteen pieces. Thisshows what one civilized Chin man did with the knowledge he acqui ed while washing shirts for the Christ- ians.

Two years later. on the ranch where he wa employed, there wasa battle between rustiers and cowboys, and_Me€loskey was reported amoug the slain, For nine vears his relatives here supposed him to be dead. and made some effort to lo- cate and mark his grave, but took no further action concerning him. Last night Mrs. Banks, nce McCloskey, who son Soledad street, heard her dogs barking viciously, and going out to in- vestigate she was lifted in the arms of a bearded stranger. When she got her breath and indignantly started into the bouse for help, the man with a laugh followed and made himself known. It was her brother. long mourned as dead. After leuving Dakota McCloskey went to Oregon, where he was engaged in mining and made a great deal of money. For thre ars past he has intended coming home to surprise his peopie. One of his brother deputy sherift of An entertaining romance comes from Viennn this week. Last August a young man calling himself Count San- dor Vay, who suid that he had had a falling out with his noble family in Hungary. married aschool-teacher of Klagenfort, who was the daughter of a civil officer. The ceremony was per- formed ata lonely farm house by Father Imre, and soon after the young couple visited the wife's parents, where the husband developed an uupl dency to borrow money of hi law. This led to domestic soon the bride informed her Lu.hu that her husbund was o woman.

Without cause he neglected the lady, and finally became s0 rude to her as to force her to breake the engagement. While that lasted, however, the lady had made a ving to the man the sum of #: 000 o thereabouts, and making him co- execulor with her mother and other relutives. The lady being deeply at- tached to the man, his treatment of her s0 affected her us to become indirectly the cause of her death. She had ex- pressed her intention of changing her will as soon as she should return to her home from the summer resort where she tarried, but her death came sud- denly, and her will stands, Itisunder- stood that the man not only accepts tho gifts named in the will, but also persists b serving as co-executor of the lady’s propegty. It is a mélancholy fact that there is no law in Massachusetts that can reach this cruel state of things. “That bag business,” said another woodsman, *‘makes me think of when I was picking huckleberries lust summer on Scrab Oak ridge. I'd filled o twelve- quart pail and I wanted to get % many more, o I stood the pail on top of a big stump, raised the bale up, and covere: the berries with leaves. Then I went over the other side of the ridge. a quar- ter of a mle, probably, to pick the other pailful. It took me over an hour, and when I got in sight of the stump what did I see but two cub bears stand- ng on the stump with their noses in my puil of buckleberries. They were on opposite sides of the pail, and the way they hogged in reminded me of two pigs. T yelled asloud as I could, and the cubs rolled off the stump iike two bulls. One of them had the bale of the pale over his neck and I chased him for almost a mile, but he got away’in the thick brush and 1 have vever seen my pail from that day to this,” Aunother backwoodsman told about how a bear bothered a man who moved into his neighbnrhuod fron a region where bears don’t roam through the forests and fields.

Fredrick A. Conkling in the Jan- uary Forum, These bills were all pass- ed amid the hurry and ¢ nfusion of the last ten days of the session. This pro- cedure is without a parallel in our 5\ - tory. The only approach to it is to be found in the carnival of fraud and in- famy which marked the era of what is known as the Tweed ring. Undo edly the chief cause of the demorl tion, not to say the degradation, which has of late prevailed at Albany, is to be found in the wholesale abuse of the veto power, by both the present gover- nor and by his immediate precedessor in office. The common sentiment re- gavding the passage of every measure, whether good, bad, or indifferent, has of late been—*"Let it go through, the governor 1s sure to veto it.” Of the 451 bills referred to, 173 remained unsigned at the expiration of thirty days from the date of tne adjournment. the ground like so much w Furthe Beautiful and Talented Artiste, C_ MISS AGNES HERNDON IN HER GREAT PLAY “La Belle [arie” Or, A WOMAN’S REVENGE.
