e ——— . THE TRANSMISSOUR] COUNTRY How a Lot of Adventurers Followed a Madman on & Fool's Errand, A WARVEL-WORKING GOLD TRAP Red Lako Roservation to Be Oponed—A Boulder Strike—flow Lo Works Unele m—A MBIt of Real Romanoce—~ Western News in Briet. The scriptural proverb that ‘whoso Is not against me is for me' may well be applied to the weather, for each day that it I8 not unfavorable it is really favorable and lessens tho days of possible disaster. In general there is nothing from which the west can tuko more comfort today than the assurance of an abundant crop. The warm wenther of the past week has hastened corn and had a favorable influence on other cereals, besides fruits of which a large yield is promised. In Colorado the silver depres- sion will bo largely counteracted by a more vigorous search after the yellow wmetal, which is abundant throughout the state, and between increased prospecting and working of mines that had hitherto not paid an outlet will be found providing employment for thousands, until the vexed silver question has been adjusted, The Gold Trap Scheme. News comes from British Columbla that Sampson's great gold trap scheme, which was to revolutionize mining, has ended in ignominious failure, and Sampson, the in- ventor, whose scheme looked so well as he explained it, is now a prisoner for obtaining money by fraud and for threatening eastern capitalists who went into the venture with him. His actions on the expedition to Na- tion river, where the trap was to bo tried, led to the belief that he is a dangerous mad- man, whose genius has merged into insanity. Messengers have arrived from Giscombe portage and Summit lake, bringing news of the end of the ex‘)ndl\,hm, which departed with such pomp early in May. From_ their reports, Sampson informed Fissiault and La Perierre that he had the gold machine already in the creck and was catching gold successfully when he left eighteen months before. As the expedition progressed they discovered that he was ig. norant of the river, as well as of gold min- ing, and a priest at Fort George told them he had never been there. However, they went on to Giscombe portage and thero Sampson commenced to treat them with resolute cruelty, rofusing the commonest necessitics from the supplies and compelling ehom to carry his pet cats and dogs over vortages, threatening to shoot any daring to disobey, After many mad actions, the party reached Summit lake, where Sampson or- dered them to make boats, while he sent a man back to spy on Dr. Fissiault, saying that he would be rewarded, and that the plan was to abandon the two capitalists in the wilder- ness. This young man informed La Perierre of tho rlul‘ and was told to go to the nearest town_for officers, a companion being sent ‘with him unknown to Sampson. The two poor fellows were almost drowned, arriving at Fort George waist deep in a flooded canoe and vtterly exhausted. Meanwhile Sampson sent word to La Perierre that the men were all discharged. He gave them all a day's fooa and a canoe and dared them to molest the scow or pro- visions. He walked in front of ‘the store- house at Giscombe with a loaded rifle and cocked revolver. La Perierre was deter- mined to arcest him, and telling the men his plan of capture, they gradually closed in, making a pretense of asking for wages. At the words “‘arrest him,"” all sprang forward, and Sampson was disarmed and bound. Mrs. Sampson was locked in the storehouse with & loaded shot gun, which she surrendered on demand. Taking the provisions on the scow the party returned to Fort George, where they arrived next night, Sampson being - de- livered to the Hudson Bay company officer and kept under guard until a warrant and police arrived. The case will be tried betore ex-Governor Cornwall,local judge at Queens- nelle, this week, if the doctor pronounces Sampson sane and responsible for his actions. Real Life Rattioannko Romance. K camping-out party of boys who have been spending a week’s outing- up the Sun river returned to Great Falls, Mont., and gave an account of their adventure with a rattlesnake, which shows that although they wero only lads they were not lacking in courags, presence of mind and knowledge. The party consisted of Ed Pontot, Carroll Pontet, Reed Bywater, a son of Superin- tendent Burrill of Sand Coulee and a boy named McLain, a step-son of H. G. Klenze, and their ages ranged between 9 and 15 o They had gone out for a woek's fish- ng and camping trip during the vacation and had o good time, as boys will One evening when bvlaying near their camp Burrill picked up what he thought was o piece of rope lying in the grass, but which proved to bo u rattlesnake, Before the Ind discovered his mistake tho venomous reptile bit him on the fingor. Under theso alarming circumstances the boys helda council and quickly decided on tho propek thing to do. A string was tied tightly around the bitten fincer both above and below the spot where the fangs of the snake had ontered, and the McLain boy volunteered to suck the poison ‘out of the wound. This he did so thoroughly and ef- foctually that noserious effects have since been experienced from the bite, The boys certainly deservo great praisa for their coolness under tho circumstances, and the promptitude with which they took the right means to_avert the deadly conse- quences of the snake bite. They were only boys in years, but they demoustrated by their prompt courage and coolness in an emergency that they alroady possess the manly qualities of brave men. It is safe to predict that they will make good American clitizens some day. Better than Goid, The ledge of Belgium black marble re- cently discovered by M. D. Conway near La Conter, Wash., bids fair to prove more valuable than & gold mine. The fortunate discoverer has already refused a bona fide ofter of §20,000 for the property. The ledge 18 situated on o forty-nine-acre tract of land for which Mr. Conway paid 3300 about a year ago, and is only fifty feet from the Columbia river. During the past two weocks it has beer doveloped sufticiently to show that the formation 18 very perfect, and that its ex- tent is almost unlimited, as there is appar- ently a wholo mountain of the valuable stuff, It is proposed to forward a number of large specimens to New York to be testod by ex- perts there. If thoy prove as valuable as supposed a stock company will be formed and the marble will be juarried on a largo scale. There is no doubt as to the beauty of the specimens already sccured. Mr, Conway came to Portland with several large speci- mens. The polished surface appears to bo a cloudy greenish-black in color, dotted with irregutar deud-black spots. This variety of marble is said to be very scarce in the United States, and this is the first discovery re- corded on the Pactlic coast. 2 A Copper Find, Larimer county residents are just a little excited over the copper discoveries at Prai- rie Divide, which is about thirty-ive miles northwest of Fort Collius. Specimens from the Copper Bug, which is down fifty-five foot, show 72 per cent coppar. Sowe Lime ago .00 pounds of the ore was sent to the sampler and $300 was paid for it. Several E»J offers have been made for the Copper g, but its owners believe that they have 8 godd thing aud will not part wit it velopment work is now going on sud the owuers of the mine have great hopos for the future, The land about the Copper Bug is sald to be copper-bearing and it will be well prospected before the fall. Bear Guich Wakiig Up. Up in Bear gulch, Moutana, which has in she past contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to the nation's wealth, Mr. J. P. Catohing, who lately purchased the Wooa- lock and Dimpley placer ground, is replacing $he old-fashioned Barrow flume with & new one of and 1nid on an even grads of thrse inches to therod. Some iden of the undertaking can bo had from the fact that the length of the flume when gompleted will be upwards of 4.000 feat, using over 100,000 feet of one and one-half inch_lumber. Kach box is twelve feot long, 29x26 inches in the clear, and takes 600 pounds of nails of different sizes to build it. About one-half of the flume (s already in operation, gathering the golden sands which move the world—to which Wall streot bows down and silver plays second fiddle. Eight men are busy putting in flumes and squaring uv the ground ready for heavy work next season Farther up, at Top O'Deep, it is rumored that Mol McGhoe has struck a very rich pocket or streak on the old Abascal ground, and $25,000 are the figures given. Lo as n Nchomer, Some of the Indians have tumbled to an- other scheme which results to the benefit of their stomachs, Among the solaiers at Fort Meade are a number of Indians—and strange as it may scem they have relatives at the Sioux agencies. These relatives have found itconveniont to visit the Indian soldiers at Fort Meade, and not long ago forty-nine of them were enjoying the hospitality of the army officers at Fort Meade. When not en- gaged in eating they would visit with their army brothren. The visiting Indians gave a grass dance for the amusement of the of- ficers, and au its conclusion the mnnounce- ment was made that rations would be issued to them from the military stores. This an- nouncement is said to have brought forth many approved grunts of satisfaction from the visitors. 1f Indian shrowdness can be Judged aright the army officers will discover in the near future that almost every in- dividual member of the Sioux nation has relatives among the Indian soldiers at the post, and that these alleged relatives will visit the fort in crowds for the ‘eating there is in 18.” Gold and Iron. Some prospecting work has beon carried on all winter on the iron properties of the Como Iron, Coal and Land company, and a very promising gold strike has been made bafweon the iron and overlying porphyry wall, says the Como Record. The character of the ore is a decomposed oxide of iron, and from assays and mill tests is worth from 810 to #40 per ton. A sample assayed by E. E. Burlingamo of Denver gave . result of 40.5 ounces of gold rnd 17.3 ounces silver por ton. Total value, $524.70. 'This sample was taken out of a “potted deposit” and could not be considered average ore, but demonstrates the fact that there is gold in sight. These- iron claims are at the head of Tarryall chan- nell, now successfully worked for the entiro distance from the Poabody placer near Ham- ilton to the Liebelt placer delow and adjoin- ing these mines, and those iron properties are evidently the fountain head and source of the millions of gold mined in Tarryall dis- trict since their discovery. An Important Land Decision. Judgo Sloan disposed of a very important land grant case in the district court which involved 100,000 acres. The suit was brought by the government against the owners of the Calabasas grant, in Pima county, Arizona, to restrain the owners from fencing in certain portions of the grant. The defendants made a motion to dissolve the injunction, claiming that they had vested rights, and that the government had no right to assert the prerogative of public domain over the property in question, Judge Sloan sustained the motion and dis. missed the suit of tho government. There will not be any appeal taken. Co'lecting Fish Specimens. Messrs, Evermann, Cox and Butler, repre- senting the Smithsonian institute, Washing- ton, D. C., have boen about Chamberlain, S. D., gathering fish from the streams in this section. The party succeeded in securing some excellent spocimens. From Whito river thoy caught about twenty good speci- mons, among them being a catfish weighing forty'pounds. Another curiosity taken from White river was a catfish having & bill simi- lar to the billor & swordfish. Crow creek furnished the Iargest number of specimens, about forty having boen taken from that stream, . " A'Vatunble Strike. Joseph Brazile, foreman of -the Center ‘mine of the Mareugo district, owned by C. W. Allen of San Bernardino, Cal, came in with glowing reports regarding the latest developments of that mine. “I'he old shaft has been cleared out to a depth of 125 feet, showing an ore body four- teen feot in width assaying about §18 per ton in gold. Ata dopth of seventy feet in the new shaft an elghteen-inch vein is ex- posed, going over 50 per ton. Some very rich specimens ave exhibited by Brazile.

He was about I7 years old, and at {he same timo s young lady neighbor disappeared. The boy was an.only son. The father hunted assid- uously for tho boy, but could find no trace of him. ~ He was given up for lost and mourned as dead.

' There are countless’ remedies sug- gosted to the seasick’ traveler by means of which hope of upeedy recovery is held out, and to the intending traveler by sea it is safe tosay thatthere are given any number of sup) -to-be sure preveatatives of this troublesome but never dangerous illness. The Philadelphia Times does not believe that there is any known herb, drug or iine of action that will prevent seasick- ness if you once start inon that dis- agreeable path, but there are man things that help to ward off an attacl which will indced prove of value to those who dread so much the crossing of the great Atlantic or Pacific ferries, It is advisable before one starts on such a vovage to be particularly careful as to their diet. On the first day out keep as much wupon the feet as possible and do not be tempted to eat too heavily .of the numerous palatable dishes that will be set before you. Walking up and down the deck Ccontinuously is advised by many by arguing that one more quickly becomes used to the motion of the vessel in this exercise, und the fatigue which it in- Auces brings the much-needed sloop. But it is useless to wear one's self out hoping to stave off the feeling of nausea if it once attacks you. Lemons are most grateful to persons in thisstage, and there is no better settler of an unruly stomach than 1ced champagne. If you do not feel inclined to eat do not force yourself to go to the table, for it is ten chances o one that the very sight of food will make you retire ignominiously from the festive board. A well known medical man declares that fifteen grains of sulphate of quinine taken from two to four hours before sailing will prevent all feeling of seasicknoss, even to a most sensitive subject. Whether this applies in all cases we have no way of ascertain- ing, but jt is simple enough to be fol- lowed ouf, and if it proves helpful is worth all of the confidence such an au- thority places in it. — - NOTE CHANGE OF TIME.

Lioutenant Marcus Braun of the Aus- trian army, here in the cnR:Acl!y of newspaper correspondent, was brig tenoufih to copyright the march and will reap the benefits. But the inspirited march and the inspiriting boverages of Alt Wien are not its only charms. hao student of the antiquo can find much to interest him, for what moro ancient treas- ures would ho care to see than the portraits of Grecians uncarthed in the tombs of a small city near Jerusalem, placed there with the mummies about 800 B. C., something near the time the Greeks invaded Egypt! Does the paiater of today desive any botter obportunity to study tho lost art by which those portraits stand out in colors as vi s upon the day the brush was appiied, more than twenty-one centuries ago? ‘There seems 10 be not the least doubt of the genuineness of these treasures. There is also exhibited here a papyrus declared to be the oldest ex- tant, some portions of which are missing, but upon its face appearing enough Greek characters to decipher that at one time was written thero partof Zachariah, from the Old Testament. There aro more priccless relics and raro antiques scattered all about the Austrian villages, in many cases loaned by royal personages. There’s Poetry in It. As we sat at the table in a recess of the square while pretty Lena, the barmaid just arrived fram Austria, was unloading & tray from the cafo's temptirg store and trilling a Hungarian carol, tho contrast of the situa- tion struck us forcibly. Here was this ancient Viennese city in iniature, set down in Chlcn%e right beneath the shadow of the monster Ferris wheel—the shadows of long ago and the acme of the most daring modern solence side by side. Over across the way the graceful white minarcts of Egypt and of Turkey are dimly outlined against the red ?lonm! of the setting sun, The poetry of it s almost thrilling while the soft strains of Carl Zehrer's orchestra issue forth, and then a voice from the “‘cheap section” of the village sings out lustily, ‘awei bier,” the greasy Arab next door pounds on his night- mare tom-tom, and the poetry is all gone. Back in Chicago again. Old Vienna is saia to be a historically cor- rect counterfeit of the Graben as it ap- peared about the time of the Turkish in- vasion. Whether it is or no is another matter. It certainly doesn’t conform to the idea an artist has transferred to a canvas, now displayed in the Austrian section of the Fine Arts palace. Yet it is doubtless as nearly accurate as the architect could know. Nearly every bit of the material was brought here from Austria_Mr. Braun says ‘The builders have certainly endeavored to follow out the umformly ancient design, which is carried out even to the numerous shops and bazaars, which are managed so as mot to mar the antiquity., A mammoth Viennese, fat .and handsome and big-mus- tached, stands sentry at tho gato in an opera bouffe costume, He rests immovably on a long spear, quite statuesque. A woman went up to him the other day and squeezed his arm to see if he was wax. He grunted and waxed familiar. The woman shrieked and waxed fast with her feet, S0 the Blarney Ston: fagged out.

The stone has Dbeen advertised extrayagantly a8 a portion of the sure-enough stone, atd employed to collar the nimble nickle from the credulous visitor. Some very intelligent peoplo—Eu- gene ield, for instance—had been induced to take stock in Lad 7 Aberdeen’s counterfeit stone, The noble Irish woman is doubtless actuated by charitable impulses in her efforts to make the Irish village a remunera- tive institution, yet it does seem as if she were making an overdraft upon the proverb, “Charity covers a multitude of 1S, It is no less an imposition because a titled lnd{ is countenancing it. Aud yet peoplo will continue 1o perform osculation upon the greasy surface of the sham bit of rock, for a nominal consideration, and go away in happy contemplation of their ability to tell their neighbors they had been there. ‘While mentioning this it occurs to me that the press of Chicago has given no prominence to the discovery of the Blarney stone fake, though its arrival was duly and graphically chroniclea, But one nowspaper hinted at it. This may reimnforce the allega- tion of Mrs. Ernest Hart, who has also a worthy enterprise in competition with Lady Aberdeen, that her Irish villageis being boycotted in Chicago. Mrs, Hart certainly gots very littlo space in the local press, in contrast with Lady Abordeen's show, about which much is suid that 1s good, and nothing that could be construed as unfavorable erit- icism. Mrs. Hart's village is fully as mer- itorious an énterprise as that under the pro- tectorate of tho wifo of Canada's new gov- ernor general.

Fow People Imagine What One of Them Can Do When Thoroughly Active, Few people in this country imagine what terrible work a voleano of the reg- ulation sizo can do whag it once gets fully aroused, says tho Philadelphia Press. In 1838 Co'opaxi threw its flory rockets more than 3,000 feet above the crator, and in 1857 when the blazing mass confined in the same mountain was struggling for an outlet it roared so loud that the awful noise was heard for a distance of 600 miles. In 1897 the crater of Tunguragua, one of the greatest peaks of the Andes, flung out torrents of mud and lava, which dammed up a great river, opened now lakes besides making a deposit of secth- ing mud, ashes and lava 600 foet deop over the whole area of a valley which was twenty miles long and averaged 1000 feet in width. The stream of lava which flowed from Vesuvius in 1837 and passed through the valley of Terre del Greco is estimated to have contained 333,000,000 cubic feet of solid matter. In 1760 Altna poured out a flood of melted stones and ashes which covered eighty-four square miles of fertile coun- try to a depth of from ten to forty foet. On this oceasion the sand, scoria, lava, ete., from the burning mountain formed Mount Rosini, & peak two miles in cir- ference and over 4,000 feet high. Inthe eruption of Vesuvius in the year79 A. D., the time of the destruction of Pompeii, the seoria, ashes, sand and lava vomited forth far exceeded the en tire bulk of the volcano itself, while in 1660 Atna disgorged over twenty times its own mass. Vesuvius has sent its ashes into Syria, Egypt and Turkey. It hurled stones of 800 pounds weight to Pompeli, a dis- tance of six Enxllsh miles, during the eruption of 79, A.
