For rhp Christmas and* New ‘Year
I harejuiidiN special preparations and all
who jfiVfond of holiday egg nogg or a
social glass aitb visit.ng friends, or
One of tbd most peculiar freaks of
psjcIiMogiv'Al phv'noujcpa ever brought
to light has just culminated near Phoe
nix, Arizona. , In 185^ two brothers, A.
B. and Luther EUett, lived in Nemaha
county, Kansasi. Luther chose the part
of the wanderer and went west, pre
sumably to Colorado, and nothing more
was heard of him except vague reports
that ho had been killed* by Indians.
The war came and A. B. Ellett served
four years in the union armj*, coming
out In incompletely broken in health.
He returned to Kansas and settled
down on his farm near Sabctha, where
he remair.eil until recently. He ac
cepted rumor ns truth and, not getting
any letters from the brother, regarded
him as dead ^ In 1880 he was atlllcted
by the breaking out of an old woun
and was confined-to his room for man
weeks. During thaj. time ho dreamed'
that his brother was alive and in Pres
cott, A. T. It,seemed that they were
together In the mountains, and in pass
ing down a canyon tboy discovereda
fabulously rich gold mine a few mile#
from an old abandoned shaft once
expedition, which Was to start on •
perilous voyage into the North seas in
search of Lieut. Grecty and hH^men,
The terrible experience of that exposi
tion is well known. Some one a&j||ed
him the other day what he thought of
the Peary expedition, tils eyes lighted
up with enthusiasm.
“Lieut. Peary is the only explot^t
who has gone into the northern ics
who knew exactly what ho was going
to do. P confess I didn’t think he v. ou Id
be successful, because I never thought
he could reach the top of the ice-cap,
but,.he had his plans laid jiU right and
knew what he was about and com
pleted his work nobly. People who
have never seen that ice enp^ cannot irn*
agine what an awful obstaifc^'it is to
surmount. It looks as if an enormous
piece of the earth’s surface had just
been turned up and stood on end and
kept there.' Words cannot describe4$,
and a man can climb all day and thejr
In the evening lean over and drop a bis
cuit Into the very camp he left- hour*
before. Peary went at It in a business
like way, and after he reached the ice
pack beyond ho hot^a comparatively
eaAy time. Yes, sir, tn my opinion he
is the only Arctic explorer who ever
showed he knew anything about hit
work.** _

littlOfinsprcsaion on him, but the next
night it was repeated, and even the
trees ifhd the outlines of the mountains
were perfectly impressed on his mind.
He did not hoed the possibility of the
mine being there, for the smell of hay
had never been out of his nostrils, and
he did not know quartz from lava, but
he thought it worth while to make some
inquiry about his brother, which he did.
A letter directed to - the postmaster at
Prescott brought the information that
hi* brother was an.old resident, but was
then out in the mines. A correspond
ence began between the two brothers^
and during its conree the part of the
dream relating to the mine was di
vulged. Being in that vicinity one day
Luther EHctt looked for the mine but
found nothing. The matter passed
along until a month ago, apys tne San
Francisco Chronicle, when the Kansan
brjrther concluded to visit his relative in
Arizona, and at the same time to46ok
at the country. He still had an Inclina
tion to look. for the mine, but was
ashamed to own ft.- His brothor met
him in I’refccott, and After staying a few
days there they went to the mountains
and visited the old abandoned mine.
When they approached it the Kansas
roan recognized the oonntry as the one
he had scon in his dreams, and told
even how the shaft was situated with
regard to the mountains and canyons-
with such accuracy that his brother
was filled with astonishment, but he
was au old prospector and a belief in
dreams was not one of his superstitions.
When they arrived at the spot Mr.
Ellett said it seemed to him that he had
often been there before, and after look
ing over the ground they took a pick
and walked westward toward th* point
Indicated by the dream. In crossing
the canyon the prospector stumbled on
a very rich ledge and exultantly ex
claimed that they had found the
mine. The brother answered that It
might bo rich, but the one they were in
search of was richer. Climbing up the
other aide of the gulch, they came to
the spot where the dreams had located
the lode, but there was nothing in
sight but half-decomposed granite.
The perfect resemblance of the land
marks had so excited their hope that
they were disappointed and stood for
some time talking the matter oyer.
While so standing tlie one with the
pick began picking on the Shelving
rock ami a great piece of it fell down,
exposing a blind ledge of white quartz
resplendent with free gold. Tltoy
worked into the mass, find it to be
about thirty inches in width and widen
ing ns It went down at an angle of
forty-five degrees. The prospector
stayed there, afraid to leave the mine
for fear of cl aim-jumpers, but his
brut her brought a sack of the samples
to Phrcnijrund the assays go two thou
sand six hundred dollars in nineteen
dollars to the ounce gold. Satnplee
have also been sent to the mint at-
Francisco for testing. When Mr.
Ellett was seen by a reporter he did not
Keem disposed to talk about the mine,
saying that they wished to keep its ex
istence quiet, and had done so for two
weeks, but finding that mining men
from that section had already told it he
narrated the story as given above.
Mr Ellett is a responsible farmer in
his homo state and before FDpteraber
hail never seen an ounce of gold ore, so
he counts himself as one of the crea
tures on whom fortune has smiled. The
story oLthe dream was published in
1889 by several scientific journals in the
east as illustrating the fact that
Conner knowledge and information had
nothing to do with the substance of
dreams.

the Golden Fleece from the queen re

The emigration of the English agri
cultural population into the towns'is
attributed by T. E. Kebbel, among
other cau*ea, to the dullness of village
life. The old feasts, the fair* and the
games have for the most Apert disap
peared. Thus, while there i* vaetly
more cricket played; in England than

A Hlrd of KtII Omen.
• The pigeon is considered to be essen
tially a bird of death, says the Fancier’s
JournaL Thus if a white pigeon set
tles on a chimney some one of the occu
pants of the house will pass away ere
l on R\ but should the bird enter and
perch ttpbn the table it is considered a
less portentous omen and to testify sick
ness. Thera is, a widespread belief
through England that ho one can die
happily on a b«d in which there is
even a single plgfeon;* feather. There
is a similar superstition about par
tridge feathers and there is an old say-
ing that he who is sprinkled with

Notwithstanding their diminutive
size, pugnacity is one of the most con
spicuous traits of humming birds. Even
kingbirds and the boldest hawks aro
afraid ^f them, being compelled to re
treat before the impetuous assaults of
the tiny warrior, whose boldness la only
equaled tby tho lightning-like rapidity
of his movements, thus baffling any at
tempt fct resistance on the part of the
more .powerful adversary. Tho lance-
like thrust of the needlc-like beak la
usually directed at tho eyes of tho ene-'
ray. \ When-two or more individuals of
either sex happen near the same spot,
spirited and often violent conflicts or#
almost certain to ensue.
No Cloud Without Katn.
A very curious fact is that a clcud la
always raining. Even in summer,
when tho cloud over our head is white,
the drop* are falling from it But the^
are very small, and they evaporate be
fore they reach the enrth. In evapo
rating they pass from the cloud-particle
stage to the haze-partietarftage; from
saturation to si tuple condensation, or
the dry dust partiel«Gon which th#
condensation tbok place may be left
perfectly diy. It is a general truth
when a cloud is forced it begins to
rain. The mifmte particle* of water
eome dow n in millions. The distance
they fall depends on. their sire. If ‘the
air tho clotids rest on is dry and warm
they do net get fat*. If it Is chilly they
collect in masses and form drops of
vain that reach the earth. —Longman**
