Ii f I I GOLD SEEKERS REWARDED | THREE MEN FIND THE LONG-LOST i GUNSIGHT MINES. Traveling Through the Noted Death 17?? 1 ?Almnc^ Pnfichn/1 nf' Hoaf. I and Thirst?Gold In Abundance. 1 A recent letter from Los Angeles,Cal., to the A'ew York Sun says: There are ' now in this city three men who have re- ; ccntly crossed and recrosscd the famous [ Death Valley of Southern California, and ! who have succeeded in solving a mine ' mystery which lias balhed the most dar- j ing and skilliul prospectors for many years. The Gunsight placers were located in '4i?, but were afterward lost, and though repeated attempts have been made to tmd them, most of the men engaged in the effort have perished. About six weeks ago when A. P. Jud- ' son, A. D. Spring and Harney Carter an- 1 nounced that they were going after the < Gun-ight trail, their friends sought to 1 dissuade them, and chance acquaintances 1 laughingly bade them good-by forever. < No one ever expected to see them again, ' and when they set out confidently on 1 their mission they were given up as dead ] men might have been. So many such expeditions had left this and other towns < ' - J- ^ Si-- 1 I oniy ro meet aeatn in us uumuit forms, that this one was regarded as ; especially foolhardy. ' About a week ago the three men re- ! turned. They came in by rail, ragged, J emaciated, and feeble, and one of them, ' Carter, sick abed. But all were enthusiastic over their achievements, and each 1 had in his pockets Nuggets 10 prove his < assertion that the Gunsight mine had been found. The story of their trip would be incredible were they not here as living witnesses to its truth, their bodies bearing all to > plainly the proofs of the suilerings which they have undergone. Knowing that the discoverers of the Gunsight mines crossed the Death Valley, these adventurers sought, if possible,to make the same trail. Once through the Mojave Desert, they soon came to the daz-ling white sandy plain, where no life can exist. Almost at the tirst step they were prostrated by the fierce heat from above and below. Their feet swelled so that they were compelled to ^ rip open their shoes, and the goggles which they had prepared were but feeble protection for their eyes. The men had two wagons, each drawn by two horses, and in these vehicles they carried water in barrels and other supplies. After an hour or two of the most painful locomotion, the heat becoming more intolerable at every step, the party paused a few minutes for rest and refreshment. The poor beasts fairly groaned in their agony, and the men themselves did not dare look at each other lest they would read in each other's eyes the despair which all knew was settling upon tbem. On every hand tiiey beheld the whitened skeletons of men, of horses, . and of burros. In some places they found the remains of what appeared to have been an expedition? ruined vehicles, with the skeletons of horse- and men lying about. Yultuies swooped down upon them with angry \ cries, and other birds of prey circled high X above-their heads, following them as X they pro^ressejl. When ni^ht tame thev followed the north star,' or.e man trying to sleep while the others drove. At daybreak there was nothing to relieve the eye. All around them was the gleaming sand; overhead the brassy sky, and far away the rocky sides of the mountains ou which no vegetable liTe was ever found. Wearily they"pressed on, confident that the worst was over, but when almo-t in sight of the east range of the Amargosas, to which they were bound, the blazing heat played them a merciless prank. The scorching which men and beasts were enduring with reasonable fortitude was too much for the water barrels and their wagons. The wood of which they were made shrank and shriveled until they fell to pieces, first the wagons and then the barrels. All attempts to keep them together were useless. With the water gone the party was well nigh in despair, but when the wagons, too. fell to pieces theie was a minute when all recognized the probability that another expedition was to be added to the long list of those which had gone into that abode of death never to be heard of again. When thing* appeared to be at their worst, Carter spied something in the white sand a few rods awav, and, hurrying toward it, found the pieces of a wagon which had belonged to a '4!ter whose skeleton lay close at hand. Wood never decays in that atmosphere, and of the three wrecked wagons the men were able to gear up one vehicle that would convey their remaining supplies and their tools. $ This delay came very nea* being fatal to all concerned. One horse died in the harness, and Carter was prostrated so completely that for a time his life was despuire 1 of. Toiling painfully along, now without water and with no hope of any until they coulU clear the desolate valley, .iudson and Spring were at length j compelled in their agony to dig deep into the sand in the hope of rinding moisture with which to quench their intolerable thirst. At a depth of a few feet they catne upon water, but it was salt. They drank of it, but it only served to increase their suffering, and when they gave some of it to their horses the beasts refused to swallow it. With a firm determination to pi ess on to the utmost limit of their strength, the men continued their iournev. and at length. more dead than alive, they emerged from the valley and began the ascent of i the mountains. | Here they found some bunch grass, on which their horses feasted, and a spring ' of water, copious draughts from which revived the entire party. Tarrrying at this spring a day or two for the purpose of recuperating, the men finally pushed d on, prospecting the country closely as Xl X r ?A 4.AAA IAI.I Iiut'y went. x ur i* ween, uu t.owe ui yuiu or of the previous presence of man was found, but on the eighth day, as they were digging for water, they came upon gravel abounding in coarse gold in nuggets worth from $1 to $5 apiece. This, then was in the vicinity of the far-famed . Gunsight placers, and another day's investigation brought them upon the very ground where nearly fcrty years ago the mines had been staked out. ] Procuring many fine specimens, the men returned by a roundabout way. and on arriving here made known their discovery. The dilapidated appearance of the adventurers and the magnificent specimens whicn they had with them brought plenty of friends to their side, and already preparations are in progress for an expedition which is to have for its object the opening of the mines. This caravan will be supplied with wagons with steal wheels, and it will carry water iu barrels made of sheet iron. The experience of the party has nnnvinwd thnm that wooden Vehicles and leservoirs are useless in the parching itmosphere of Death Valley, and they will run no further risks with them. It is expected that a start will be made in ibout two weeks, the company this :ime being larger and going prepared for a winter campaign. Winding up the Owl. In one of the JL'owcry mu?eums, in a tvire cage, is a monster owl, with eves as big as live-dollar gold pieces. A solemn ooking man wandered from the serpent's leu to the owl's cage, and his eyes met those of the captive bird. As he walked irouud the cage the big, flat eyes of the owl remained lixed upon him. He kept on, aud, while the claws of the bird olutched the rod on which it was perched, the eyes neither winked nor wavered. Three times he made the circuit of the cage, keeping his eyes fixed on those of the owl. Then he halted, still eyeing the bird, and a perplexed look came over his face. Again he started on, with quicker step, and as often as he made the circuit of the cage he closed one linger of his open hand. After he had doubled over seven fingers an attendant in the museum came up and asked him what it was all about. "Go away,"' said the man. without taking his eyes from the owl, and he kept on around till he had closed the other finger and both thumbs. Then he halted, and, still keeping his eyes fixed on those of the owl, he said: "I've walked around that owl ten times since I counted, and three or four times before, and he hasn't taken his eyes off me yet, nor let go the perch with his claws. He ought to be pretty near wound up, hadn't hef" The museum man thought the stranger was a crank, and went off to attend to some boys who were pestering the monkeys. "With the observation that ho could keep on walking as long as the owl could keep turning his head around without letting go his claws, the stranger started on. He made eight or ten more circuits and then halted and waited to see the owl's head fly back like a piece of twisted India rubber, but the owl's eyes remained fastened upon him with a placid look. "Well, that beats me," saia tne man, and he disappeared down the stairway. What puzzled the man has been a puzzle to naturalists also. One of the solutions is that after each turn the owl's head flies back so quickly that the human eye cannot detect the movement.?New York Sun. An Opening for Economy. Farmers complain that they make little money. Tliey occupation is healthy and independent, but fails to be lucrative. Many young men detest the homefarm a d flock to the cities in search of Larger remuneration. If any means can be devised byv^hich farmers can lay up more money, this great drift may possibly be arrested. One m-eat imurovement seems possi "" o 1 ? # | blc, which would make a large saving in I annual expenses. It is computed thjit on the farms of the United States there are at least six million miles of fences, which have cost in round numbers, $2,000,000,000, and have to be renewed every fifteen years. In other words, the farmers of the country expend every fifteen years on their fences a greater sum than our entire nat onal debt, and the amount increases annually instead of diminishing. If this vast outlay could be saved, it would add greatly to the farmers' annual income. Much of the expense is needless, and is merely the outgrowth of long-established habits which need reforming. There is room here for economy on a stupendous scale, with lucrative returns. Fences are disappearing in our cemeteries, with a great gain to beauty and good taste. They are not introduced in some of our newer cities, like Norwich and Minneapolis. When laws against vagrant cattle are rigidly enforced, farmers will be benefited by saving the heavy expense of fencing.?Youth's Companion. A Century's Change. The city directory of 1786, when the population of New York was about 25,00U, contained only fc'43 names, a very small proportion of the whole number of inhabitants. The directory of this yeai f!1M OOO nnmpQ nr nlinnfc nnft tn every five of the population within the municipal district. A century ago the northern limit from which names were taken was Roosevelt and Cherry streets on the east side, and Dey street on the west side. Now the northern limit is the southern boundary of Yonkers, fourteen and a half miles from the City rtall. Among the names in the directory of 17SG are those of Blcecker,Brevoort,Bceknian, C'ruger, Cortlandt, Desbrosses, Hamilton. Goeict, Jay, Livingston, Remscn, Roosevelt, Schulyer, Schermerhorn and Vandarn. Many of the representatives of old families of that day have entirely disappeared,and more of the representatives of the old families of the present had not then emerged from the common multitude. In 1786 Philadelphia was the metropolitan city and political capital of the country. AN hat a wonderful growth New York and the whole nation has made in 100 years.?iVeu? York Commercial.

SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL. By a new process of steaming white wood and submitting it to pressure, it can be make bo tough as to require a [ cold chisel to split it. Hot air, drawn over steam pipes that are heated by exhaust or live steam and +Vr/-.urrVi ninoa t.o various I IUCU Uivy ?T U J iui ? points where it escapes, is a satisfactory method of heating shops. A new signal torpedo, which is shot backward by a spring being attached to a sort of carriage which enables it to slide along the rail, but does not allow it to fa'l olf, is to be introduced on the Australian railroads. It is disappointing to learn that the eucalyptus has had no visible effect on the banishment of malaria from the Roman Campagna, and that whatever has been done in that direction must be credited to drainage and the ardent rays of Old Sol. Dana finds that the average height of the land above sea level is about 1,000 feet, and that this would probably cover the bottom of the sea to the depth of 375 feet; so that, taking the average depth of 1,500 feet, it would take forty times as much land as exists above sea level to fill the oceanic depressions. American inquisitiveness and ingenuity united have produced thread from the blossom of the common milk weed, which has the consistency and tenacity of imported flax or linen thread, and is produced at a much less co9t.

It is proposed to drill holes down from the surface into the workings of "fiery mines ' to allow the fire-damp which accumulates in them to escape much in the same way as gas is allowed to escape from the natural gas wells of Pennsylvania. The damp would be collected in reservoirs and used as gaseous fuel, while the pits would be freed from danger of explosion. Paper pipes for water and gas have been | exhibited in Vienna. They are rolled from sheets of paper, and coated on the inside with an enamel of secret composition. In winding the paper is soaked in melted asphalh and the pipe is painted outside with as^kalt varnish, and dusted over with sand. It is claimed that such a pipe will resist some 2,000 pounds internal pressure, although the material is only about half an inch thick. Russian geographers report that numerous lakes in Siberia, chiefly in the Tobolsk and Tomsk provinces, are rapidly drying up,and vilagjs now stand on spots covered by extensive sheets of water a hundred years ago. Lake ; I Tchebakly has shown the most remarka- j ble change, its area being 350 squnre ! miles a century ago, while it now consists of three small ponds, the largest f covering not more than five or six squurc miles. The restoration of color to fabrics which from one cause or another have deteriorated in this respect, has suggested various chemical applications and processes. It has been customary to employ ammonia for the purpose of neutral- | lzing acids that have accidentally or j otherwise destroyed the color of the i Stuffs, this being necessarily applied immediately. or the" color is usually imper- j fectly restored. An application of chloro- i form has the effect of bringing out the j colo.sas bright as ever. Plush goods, j and alfarticles dyed with aniline colors, i faded from exposure to light, resume | their original brightness of appearance ! after being spoDged with chloroform; ! the commercial chloroform, which is less ! costly than the purified, answ ers wen ior this purpose. The Magdalena River. Consul Dawson, of Bar nn-juilla, has been exploring the Magdalena River, the principal commercial stream of the United States of Colombia. The river rises in the southern part of the country, in latitude one degree thirty minutes north, and longitude seventy-six degrees twenty minutes west, at an elevation of 14,271 feet above the sen level. The river runs nearly due north and empties j into the Carribenn Sea. Its length is , nbout 1100 miles, and the temperature of I the country through whi h it passes varies from forty to ninety degrees, thus affording the greatest variety for the crons of both temperate and torrid zone3. It is navigable by large steamers lor GOO miles, the journey up-stream requiring ninety-seven hours, whle the return, trip can be made in about forty-five hours. There are some twenty tributary streams, the principal one being the Cauca, draining one of the finest valleys in the country. Towns and villages and i trading posts are scattered all a^ng the , stream, and already six companies, running twenty-seven steamboats and fleets of barges are required to accommodate the great trade centering on the river. The principal town is Barranquillu, not far from the mouth, the terminus for the river boats and the enter-port for the country. It has 25,000 inhabitants, fine buildings, factories, and all the appearance of a thriving, growing city. The country raises vast herds of cattle, linrrl nrnnrle rl T-o.nrnnrla pinrVinno +n bacco, ivory-nuts, grain, and minerals. The back country described as full of resources waiting cheap transportation for development, and furnishing an inviting field for the adventurous capitalist.?Hartford Courant. A Survival of Saxon Times. The blowing of a horn from the market-cross which wound up the first day of the Ripon millenary festival is an everyday event in the picturesque old city. It is a survival of Saxon times, i wlicn it was the signal for setting the | watch at sunset. At 9 o'clock every evening three notes are sounded in front of the Mayor's house and three at the obelisk in the market-place. The practice was revived in 1857 by order of the municipal authorities. If any house "on the gate svd within the towne'' were robbed after that hour the "wakeman" was bound to make up the loss. The watch, it is curious to know, was maintained by a tax on doors. It was not very onerous, however, being at the rate of ~ pence per door per annum. In ten years the consumption of horses as food in Paris has risen from 4,858 to 9,485; of asses, decreased from &1S to 307, and of mules, increased from six to forty.

We have so often seen fatal results follow the declaration that It can bo cured, that we have unconsciously settled down in the belief that this disease must necessarily prove fatalIt is true that occasionally a community has witnessed an isolated case of what may appropriately be termed spontaneous recovery, but to what combination of favorublo clrcum stances this result was due none nave nunerto been found able to determine. We have now the gratifying fact to announce that the process by which nature affects this wonderful change is no longer a mystery to the medical profession, and that the changes brought about in the system under favorable circumstances by intrinsic causes may be made as certainly and more expeditiously by the use of the proper remedy. In other words, nature is imitated and assisted. Tuberculous matter is noth'ng more or less than nourishment imperfectly organized. Now, if wo can procure the organization of this food material so that through the process of elective affinity it may take its place in the system, we can euro the disease. This is just what Piso's Cure for Consumption does. It arrests at once the progress of the disease by preventing the further supply of tuberculous matter, for while the system is under its influence all nourishment is organized and assimilated. It thus controls cough, expectoration, night-sweats, hectic fever, and all other characteristic symptoms of Consumption. Many physicians are now using this medicine, ana all write that it comes fully up to its recommendations and makes Consu inptlon one of the diseases they can readily cure. The forming stage of a disease is always the most auspicious for treatment. This fact should induce persons to resort to the use of Piso's Cure when the cough is flrst noticed, whether it has a consumptive diathesis for its cause or not, for this remedy cures all kinds of coughs with unequaled facility and prompt* In rnucrha from a simnle cold, two or three doses of the medicine have been found sufficient to remove the trouble. So in all diseases of the throat and lungs, with symptoms simulating those of Consumption, Piso's Cure is the only infallible remedy. The following letter recommending Piso's Cure for Consumption, is a fair sample of the certificates received daily by the proprietor of this medicine. Albion, N. Y., Dec. 29,1885. I had a terrible cough, and two physicians aid I would never get well. I then went to a drug store and asked for a good cough medicine.

About thirty years ago a prominent physician by the name of Dr. William Hall discovered, jot produced after long experimental research, a remedy for the diseases of the throat, chest and lungs, which was of such wonderful effi cacy that it soon gained a wide reputation in this country. The name of the medicine is Dr. Wit Hall's Balsam for the Lungs, and may be safely relied on as a speedy and positive cure for coughs, colds, sore throat, &c.
