Such legs Bowed as barrel hoops, aii(i Lis dingy hide almost naked, with just enough stiff yellow hair left in patches to prove the original color. One eye was gone, and he must have been in an awful lot of ficrhts, for both ears and tail were chewed off pretty nearly d wn to the roots. I pickecV him up in Tombstone one' day, or rather he picked me up, limping at my heels, and then trotting lamely out after me to the cabin that night. He was such a mean, sickly looking cur, at first I hated having him about and whenever the fellows came over from camp they jeered at and plagued Lovely, as they called him, till I had half a mind to drive the ugly beast off. But he wouldn't go, and by the time his foot I'ot well no one ever saw me without my dog. I was just about this time that I sold enough silver ore to go into the packing business. You boys in the geography class know how rough the country is in Arizona, and how thinly settled it was fifteen years ago. Well, as soon as I could buy five stout mules, I contracted to carry the mail and merchandise across the mountains between Tucson and Total Wreck, Tombstone and Silver King mining camps. I filled orders at the capital, and usually returned loaded down w^ith a queer assortment of hams, rope, coffee, nails, boots, candy, stamps, and dynamite. Now it was that Lovely showed up in strong colors, and after our second trip I bragged he was worth a brace of lazy Mexican half-breeds, and that "handsome is as hand- some does." As for those mules, he was harder on them than any slave-driver before the war. All day he travelled with his one good eye on the train. If old Molly stopped long enough just to tickle her nose with grass, you should have seen that dog. He would try to eat her up, barking, spitting, and kicking up dust, un- til I'd have to crack my whip and set the whole party off at a gallop. It was funny to see him treat them like servants, and I can tell you they were train- ed, too. There was MoEe,"atall, black, lum- livring creature, vicious aud ready to buck if you looked at him. But Lovely never stood fotlishness off of a mule, and the second day- out from Tucson he fixed old crosspatch good fashion. We had trotted pre*^ty briskly since noon, and I was riding aheau, watching the sun wheel down behind great thunder heads hanging low to the mountains, when all of a sudden such a pawing and kicking and bray- ing as there was, and Mose bolted by. Love- ly stuck on his back like a circus rider. I laughed till I cried at those two but the dog whipped in the first round, and from that time on, whenever he felt a bit tired, just swarmed up on one of the mules and rode till he was rested. The minute we reached camp and unload- ed, I turned the whole train over to Lovely. He knew where to find water, drove them to drink, sat by patiently till they were satisfied, and then started the gang off at a canter for the corral or pasture. After fin- ishing my business up at the mines, I always found the mules greedily browsing, and Lovely, his ragged ears erect, keeping a keen outlook to make sure they played him no tricks. Till I came to relieve him, nothing could have induced the dog to de- sert, and not the sleekest of squirrels ever distracted his attention from that flock. No wonder he declined to trust them, for, in spite of his diligence, they led him a dance. I rOincmber one day in Tombstone, when time came to load up and start off across the country. I cal'erl Lovely and told him to drive up the tra-'n, which now numbered ten. Away he went. v.-3.s back in a few minutes, rubbing gently against my leg and wagging his stumpy tail, as if asVIng approv- al. As I did not stir, he glanced hastily around, and in a ffash discovered his mis- take. OKI To'iy, tlie meanest mule in the drove, was missing. Giving me a biii;ht ^o•^k, as if to saj% " You mind these till I get back," he was off like the wind. I)o^^•n he raced to the corral, flew round and round the scrub to see if Toby was in hiding, and finally darted off on the trial. He returned presently, his tongne out and panting furiously, but no Toliy in sight. He iiad evidently nursed a liope that the truant would repent and come back, but seeinj: his mistake, sat on his haunches reflecting an instant. Then, as if struck with an idea, he made off for the camp. In and out, smelling at every house cor- ner and shed, wenttbe littleyellow shepherd, even upsetting boxes and barrels in his search. After many a sharp turn, sure enough, there was the sly black varmint, cunningly flattened out against the side of a cabin, not a vestige of tail or mane showing on either side. He was chewing a wisp of hay, with a malicious twinkle in his knavish eyes. Lovely was mad, I tell you. He barked oat his opinion, and after one vicious snap at Toby's heels dog and mule came flying UD like lightning. Before thattrip was over, Toby wished he had never been bom, for Lovely wouldn't even allow him to switch his. own tail without a scene. By this time I learned to trust the dog in everything, and loved him too, for he was as gentle and affectionate with me as he was harsh and domineering with the beasts. Besides standing guard half the night, his one eye skinned for Indians or wolves, he helped mind the drove, kept me company, and was a first-class rabbit hunter. It was not, however, until my three finest mules disappeared from the corral at Silver. King that I appreciated my dependence op him. Lovely was just- as much distressed »S I was that morning. Over and over again he went through the herd, counting them, one after another, as plainly as I could myself, and then apparently scratching his head, trying to think. High and low and up and down we hunted those wretched brutes through half of Pima County. Penning the remaining seven, I scoured the' country on horseback; liovely following. Worn ont and disgusted, I at last abandoned the search, and came to the conclusion they must have beeri stolen by the thievish Apaches, who had grown dar- ng of late. The evening of the third day after their disappearance I was pretty low in my mind, but next morning .got up at daylight, whist- ling for Lovely to round up the mnles, so we might^et an early start. Seeing nothing of him, Iiappoeed he moat be off larking, and- â- » th e ag ht no more^if the matter. AU-thatd^ passed without one trace of my dog. At first I hoped and looked, and then raged around, vowing there was foul play, fH- Lovely would never in all the world ~walk off and leave me alone. I hung around the camp all the rest of that week, neglect- ing my work, and getting blper with every day that passed. I could not believe he was really gone, and never gave the mules a thought now in my new trouble about the dog. Finding it was useless to delay any longer, I pressed on for Total Wreck. But instead of riding ahead, as of old, when I had some one to bring up the rear, I was forced to drive that gang of scampish mules, forever yelling and popping my whip over their stubborn heads. They fretted the life out of me, cutting up all sorts of shines â€" Molly particularly, who would run half a mile out of her way after three blades of crrass. Saturday, returning to the King, doleful as a moulting owl in the dark of the moon, I was thinking of cutting the whole business, when presently I spied a cloud of dust in the distance. Poking slowly along, and idly wondering what it might be, I could scarcely believe my eyes on recognizing one after Another of those vagrant mules. But it Was all three, sure enough, and smartening our pace, we were scon alongside. Not until I heard a feeble little bark near my stirrup did it occur to me who the detective had been. ta^nst heiud ttia«a^ca«ifenaR if *a ia by which this could be effected, ani i ow another method baa been ptopoKd. Tlis method is based upon the jHttperty peculiar to selenium of chan^g its electrical resis- tance with the intensity of light. Tie selenium cells are uranged in squares, each of which is connected with an electro-mag- net in the receiver. The latter is composed of a mirror constructed of thin strips of steel, to each of which several of the electro-mag- nets are attached. When a strongly illum- inated body is placed in front of the trans- mitter the electrical resistance of the various cells varies according to the intensity of the light. The various currents thus a£Eect the electro-magnets in different degrees, and the strips of steel are bent irregularly, turn- ing the mirror into a series of sliehtly wrap- ed surfaces which will throw an%unage on the screen. It is quite possible that this idea may be worked out practically. It has been suggested that in defensive warfare a telescope of indefinite length would be of the utmost value, as with^uried wires and concealed visors a General could apprise himself of the movements of his adversary with certainty and ease. .r. .flE,9-«.* There was Lovely, all beaten out, too stiff and lame to hobble another step, yet with his longest ear proudly cocked as he scanned the company and counted his flock once more complete. Before you could say "Jack Robinson" I was out of the saddle, Avith the dog in my arms, kissing and petting him like a good j fellow. He was modest and loving as ever, but I carried him in triumph into Silver King, where I heard the rest of the story. Jim Ellison told me that a couple of hours earlier in the day the lost mules came in on a sweeping trot. Lovely growling and limp- ing behind them. He began looking for me at once, visiting first one cabin and then an; other, and whimpering like a child at every fresh disappointment. Jim said they tried their best to make him stop for a rest and bite to eat but deaf to all entreaties, Love- ly kept right on, gathering up his captives, and setting off on the road he knew I had gone. Such a hero as l;e was in camp that night! Dick fiddled, Jim Ellison danced a break- down, and we had a big spread of pork, beans, and 'griddle- cakes, with the dog as guest of honor. You would like to see him, eh Well, just A queer anr suggestive imd is reported to have been made in the sleepy old Mora- uian town of Salem, N. C. Being surround- ed by enterprising neighboris, who are alive to the advantages of electric lights and electric railways, Salem determined to be abreast of the times. Not many days ago a workman was fitting electric light wires in the attic of one of the old buildings of the town, when he came upon a quaint group of souvenirs, which showed the different stages of illumination which had successively come within the ex{erience of the household. There was first a set of old-fashioned tin candle moulds then an oil lamp of an- tique pattern, and, lastly, a small section of a gas pipe, which he there and then sup- planted by the wire through which the elec- tric current was soon to pass. One of the editors of a leading journal was recently talking about the growth of electrical industries in this country, and ex- ' pressed some surprise that an impression should iiave gained ground that this growth was hot founded upon a solid basis. "It is- i agreatmistake,"8aidthiseditor, "toimagine I that there is anything unstable even in the â- enormously rapid growth of the number of I companies and increased capitalizations that 1 aregoing into electrical ventures. Of course there are some The FreDch and the Zauibar ?rotectoiate â€"The Anglo-Oeiman Agreement Again â€" Anotiier Boyal Wedding. The French Ministry has takeiian attitude of sweet reasonableness and come to terms with England about the Zanzibar Protec- torate. So, at least, say Paris dispatches. Better still, they have abandoned their claim of a pre-emption right over the Congo State, as against Belgium. Both of these acts are likely enough to occasion criticism in France, but are elsewhere approved. The long ofiScial explanation of the Anglo- German agreement issued by the German Foreign Office is remarkable for its good- will to England, coupled with an anxious desire to assure the Germans that they have got a tolerably good bargain. Both in Ger- many and in England the framers of the treaty have now discussed it, defensively rather than exultingly, and observers infer that it must be a very fair treaty. One of the prettiest and loast ceremonious of royal weddings which Europe has witnes- sed for many years took place ait Iscbl on Thursday morning, when Archduchess Valerie, the beloved daughter of the Austrian Emperor and Empress, was married to young Archduke Francis Salvator of Tuscany. The union was purely a love affair, and ere it could be permitted the bride had solenm- ly to renounce all right in the succession to the Austrian crown. Military pomp was dispensed with, which in Austria was alone sufficient to make the wedding remarkable, and the route from the royal villa to the church was lined by hundreds of little girls clad in w^hite, and flowered dresses, who carried each a basket, whence rose leaves were st||gni as the bridal party passed. The simflkty of ' the affair, however, did not kee^Toyalty away, for princes, and princesses in gorgeous raiment were there by the score. Two train loads. of them left Vienna on the previous day, and many of Ischl's leading citizens had to seek tempor- ary lodging while royalty occupied their modest villas. It had been arranged that the bride should ride in the historic gala Vim»^s^ *nmmmm^ Coimt LecMi 1?nlBfebithe Russian novelist^ is recovering from wKat threatened to be a^ fatal attack of liver com^aint.

The immense value of a successful and ec- onomical method of treating ores, and the excellent promise given by magnetic separa- tors in this country seem to have acted as an incentive to European inventors, and a pat- ent for the electrical treatment of ore has just been taken out by Siemens Halske of Berlin. After being pulverized the ore is poured into cylinders filled with a solution of sulphate of iron, which is kept in constant motion and subjected to steam heat. Copper cylinders, partly placed in mercury, are re- volved in the well, an alkaline cyanide solu- tion being in most cases added to the elect- rolyte, and a current is passed through the whole. Tlie mental is deposited on these cylinders. After the operation the dissoh^ed copper is recovered in the usual way. The process is said to be applicable to the treat- ment of copper and zinc ores and that of precious metals. The amount of wealth â- which is now lying idle on the surface of the earth in the shape of huge mounds of imper- fectly worked ore, and whidh will soon be made available by means of electricity, is almost incredible. these one or two failures, two or three liquid ations, but the remaining reports will every one of them deal M'ith increase, of plant, ex- tension of field, or doubling of dividends.

" Some sugar -works in Havana have recent- ly availed themselves of electrical applica- tions in the manufacture of sugar. The juice of the cane is poured into the middle compartment of a series of troughs, which are divided into three by two porous partj^ i hi Africa, tions. The outside compartment contains Protestants water, in which are placed blocks of carbon connected to the negative pole of the dyna- mo. The position pole of the machine is connected with carbon plates in the middle compartment. The sugar juices are purified f'-om the salts they contain which are taken up by the water. The addition of the cur- rent assists the osmetic transfer across the porous partitions. This method effects a marvellous saving in time, and is said to produce superior sugar. Mr. Shelford Bidwell, in speaking at the Royal Society's conversazione in London last week, exhibited an experiment which may possibly explain the intense darkness, often accompanied by a lur'd yellow glow, during thunderstorms. After showing on a screen the shadow of a small steam jet, which was of a neutral gray tint, and of feeble inten- sity, he electrified the jet, and the shadow became dense and of a peculiar orange brown hue. At the same meeting some remarkable work was done with the type printing tele- graph. Connections were made all over Europe, and among the persofis communi- cated with by the President in the course of the evening were Profs. Helmholtz and Dubois-Reymond in Berlin, Prof. Mascart in Paris, and Prof. Canizaro in Rome. Among the uses to which the automatic switoh block can be turned is that of re- gulating furnaces. The damper of a furnace may be kept closed during the night and opened at a fixed time in the morning, so that the apartments can be warmed before the rising of the occupants, and the eervants can at the same time be awakened by closing the switoh of an electric bell circuit. A decided advance in military telegrapliy has been made by the invention of the Jerritt military,field sounder. This appar- atus consists of a small instrument so arrang- ed as to be capable of being used as a trans- mitter and receiver. The sounder can be employed both for sending and receiving messages. The ordinary apparatus for transmitting telegraph work is thus dis- pensed with, the current being put on and off by means of a small s-witeh fixed .to the base of the instrument. A telephonic ar- rangement can be adjusted for receiving purposes if necessary. The whole can be carried by the ojterator in a compact and handy knapsack. It is expected that the apparatus will be useful not only for military purposes, but to working parties during the erection of telegraph lines for communicat- ing thessages to the nearest transmitting station. most unhappy prince decided to be pres- ent, the state carriage was used in its stead. The memory of the royal suicide seemed to haunt many of the wedding guests. The Emperor wept more than once, and is re- ported to have exclaimed, " This is my- last pleasure." The Empress had been with diflBculty induced to don light attire, and during the day she made trequent tearful apologies for the apparent slur on her dead son, declaring that stie never again would wear anything but black. The bride her- self scarcely smiled throughout the day, and shed tears freely during and after the cere- mony, aud more naturally upon bidding adieu to her parents. Mr. Stanley has found time and inclina- tion to talk about the missionary prospects He foresees trouble between the and Roman Catholics if native converts be not kept well in hand, but he has no fear of Mohammedanism m the future. That faith, he thinks, is fast de- creasing, and he ventures to prophesy that within five years there -will not be one Mohammedan south of the equator in Cen- tral Africa. He also assigns that space of time for the completion of the railway from the seaboard at Mombasa to Uganda on Lake Victoria Nyanza. How to fiun a Goal Stove A coal stove should never be filled up -M'ith coal higher than the first brick, a little lower is better. Never put wood on top of coal if you wish a good, clean fire. Wood ashes rattling down through the hard coal fire are not an improvement. No dead ashes or clinkers should be allowed on the grate or under it either. An ash-pit under the boil- er, if allowed to fill with ashes, Mrill reflect Bismarck's Favonte Flower. Prince Bismarck's fondness for heather, is not a new fancy. With him the heather is, more truly than the primrose was to Lord Bjaconsfield, " his favorite flower." Nearly thirty years ago, when Minister to Paris, he I made a trip to the "South of France, visiting I among other places Chambord. Writing to his wife from Bordeaux, under date July 27, 1862, Bismarck says "From inclosed speci- mens of heather you will no long be able to see how purple this plant I am so fonder of blooms there, the only flower in the royal garden, and swallows almost the only living creatures in the castle. For sparrows it is too lonely." Fond of Ection. Bagley â€" " That was a pretty strong story Johnson told you yesterday about Evans."

Prince Herbert Bismarck cherishes care- fully the wreck of a watoh which he carried during the Franco-Prussian war, and which stopped a bullet that otherwise might have ended his life. Captain Kane, who successfully took the British war vessel Calliope to sea during the storm which drove several American men-of war on the reefs at Apia, Samoa, has been made commander of the Inflexible, one of the most powerful battle ships in the Eng- lish navy. The original manuscript of Burns's great battle song, "Scots wha hae," was picked up recently for a small sum by John S. Ken- nedy, of New York, while he was abroad. He offered it to the city of Edinburgh for the price he had paid, and it was gladly ac- cepted, with a vote of thanks from the Town Council. The sound of the wedding bells in the tower of Westminster Abbey, the march played by the organ, and the hymn sung by a choir at the Stanley wedding C3remonies were all caught and recorded by phono- graphs and a phonograph -with these records was presented to the bride by Colonel Gourand. M. Stambouloff, tlie Premier and practical ruler of Bulgaria, is about forty-six years old. He is short and rather stout, and with bis round face, black mustache, and small gray eyes somewhat resembles the Chinese. He lives in a modest' home, whose furnish- ings are extremely simple, and the only ex- terior sign of his power is the soldier who stands at the door of his house. General Grant's famous log cabin, which once stood on the banks of the James River, but which was afterward removed to Fair- mount Park in Philadelphia for exhibition, is rapidly decaying. From this hut General Grant issued some of his most. important war orders, and here the rebel commissioners treated for peace. Under the same roof also gathered Lincoln and a number of the great Generals in conference. Darius L. Goff, of Pawtucket, Rhode Island, who has a fancy for mechanical cur- iosities, possesses a clock that never runs down. Through an ingenious contrivance it is kept wound by the simple opening and closing of the front door of the house. Electrical appliances, operated by the run- ning of the clock, raise the gas jet in the hall at dusk, and lower it at bedtime; ring i n early -rising bell for the servants, a later one for the family, and, an hour later, the breakfast-bell; and when the hour is struck, musical cathedral chimes respond in the chambers of the house. Sir Morell McKenzie, Queen Victoria's physician, is one of the busiest men in Lon- don, and work^ on an average fourteen hours a day. He lives in Harley Street, Caven- dish Square, a thoroughfare given over to the medical profession, for out of one hun- dred and fifty houses on the street, two- thirds are occupied by doctors. He calls on his patients during certain hours, receives calls for consultation from 10 a. m. to 2 p. m., and divides his time as methodically as possible. During his boyhood Sir Morell had to work his own way, and not till he was nearly nineteen years old was he able to leave his position as a clerk to study medi- cine. After making throat diseases a speci- alty for twenty- eight years, however, he stands at the head of his profession in that line, aud his efforts to save the life of Emper- orTrederick of Germany will not soon be forgotten. Lord Dunraven, known on both sides of the Atlantic as a sportsman and statesman, and more recently a competitor for honors as a yachtsman, has mingled work and pleasure more equally during the forty -nine years of his life than the ordinary inheritor of titles and wealth is sccustomed to do. His name is Wyndham .Thomas Wyndham- Quin, and he is an Irishman. After taking his degree at Oxford he joined the Life- guards, but soon resigned his commission to go to the Abyssinian war as a newspaper man, red tape and army etiquette pronibit- ing his presence there as a soldier. In his new role he achieved considerable distinc- tion, and during the campaign to Magdala he occupied the same tent with Stanley. When he returned he married, and in 1871 he succeeded his father in the earldom and the family estates. The old fa|nily mansion, Adare Muior, and its fourteen thousand acres of land, are in County Limerick, not far from the town of Limerick while in Glamorguishire, Wales, is Dunraven Castle, -with twenty-four thousand more acres of Itmd, which was acquired by marriage in 1S20. At these two country-seats Lord Dunraven has plenty of good shooting and fishing, which, with his tastes for yachting, rowing, and fencing, keep him in excellent health, notwithstanding the hard work he does in the ECoose of Lords while Parliament is in session.
