Captain Moss and the Mojave. Cip^aiu John Mo >s has a wonderful history, especially when he is permitted to relate it himself. Moss has lived alternately among the Indians and the whites for over thirty years. He is not lawless, unless lying is lawless, and nobody ever accused him of lying with malice aforethought. He spins big yarns just for the fun of it. Most of Moss' time has been spent in prospectir?nr ff\r A liinff fthoilt 1862. HlSt ftt *"6 *Vi ? * * the time when there was such a furor on the Pacific coast over mineral discoveries in Arizona, he struck some greenhorns whom he induced to shell out 5*120,000 for a half interest in a mine which be had opened up on the Colorado river. Wheo he had got the cash for his raiue he started on an Eastern tour, taking along with him as his friend and traveling companion, Aratoba, a chieftain of the Mojave tribe, who had great influence among his people. % The Indian had never seen more than a few hundred white men together at a time, and his notions of Eastern civilization were very crude. Moss and his companion went from Lower California to San Francisco on a steamer, and when the city and its shipping opened before Aratoba's vision he became unmanageable from amazement and excitement, and attempted to jump overboard. When they boarded a tra;n of cars east of the Rockies, and the thing was getting down to thirtv or forty miles an hour, the old chief tried to throw himself out of a window, and during the remainder of the first day of their journey by rail it took two men to prevent bim from breaking his neck. He got used to railroad travel, however, and liked it toward the last; but the more he saw of city life the greater his amazement grew. Moss ami his friend lived at the best New York hotels for a week, faring sumptuously, aud when he got ready to visit Washington and Baltimore they took the train from Jersey City in the evening, engaging berths in a sleeping-car. During the nignt run whenever the train halted at a town Moss made Aratoba get up and look out at the gas lights. The object of this was to make the Indian think he was riding through New York. They arrived in Philadelphia before daybreak and remained there until night, when the journey was resnmed to Baltimore, Moss still practicing his deception on the Indian by waking him up at every town to convince him that they were still riding under the gas light of Now York. The game was played upon the unsuspecting and bewildered aborigiue until the trip ended in Washingtc When they returned to the wilds of Arizona old Aratoba feared to relate his experience, for he kuew that his people would think he was lying,- or that he had been bribed to deceive them. Finally he consented to tell his story, and on a certain day the whole tribe assembled to hear it." When he described his journey by rail, and told about riding two whole nights under the gas lights of one city, the untraveled Mojaves denounced his ! narrative as a monstrous "stiff," and they nearly mobbed the old chief then i.1 a ~:i 1.J .1 . * nuu LUflC. A fUUUWi WHO iiCiU, HUU 11/ was decided to banish Aratoba from the tribe as a chronic old liar, and he was accordingly stripped of his Eastern made clothes and abandoned on an uninhabited island in the Colorado river, from which he was afterward rescued by his old friend Moss. Last fall Moss took up his residence in the Ban Juan country of Colorado. He lived in a county which is nearly as large as the State of Illinois, and which has a population of about two hundred. Moss was elected to the Legislature, and after taking his seat and attending one or two days, went off to San Francisco, where he has remained ever since," leaving his isolated constituents to take care of their own interests. Riding Thirty Miles to Cet .Married. The Gallatin Xorth Missourian says : Reuben Weldon of Harrison township, in company with Miss Melda Groves, the daughter of Samuel Groves, went on horseback to Elder Poster's of Monroe township ta have a marriage ceremony performed.* Mr. Pfister was not at homo, and although the roads, were very bad, the couple went from there to 'Squire Eb. Weldon's house. 'Squire Weldon was also absent from home, but the young I couple, nothing daunted, concluded to go to 'Squire Jackson Bennett's. UnforT - >0- ' T? 11 luuiHeijr, iiuwrvrr, oijuire xifuiifit wus also gone from h >me. Night was fast approaching anil Weldon was still a bach-, elor. But he was not discouraged. He told Miss Groves that he knew a justice four miles south of Breckenriilge, in . Caldwell county, who was always at home. The wearied horses were turned in that direction, but alas! for human hopes. They found that the justice had removed from the neighborhood. But by this time they had become used to , discouragements, and each additional obstacle only added tire to their zeal. , They started for Gomer station, on the Hannibal and St. Joseph railroad, resolved to go to St. Joseph that night to be married. At Gomer they found an obligiug official, who in brief time pro- I nouneed them husband and wife, and although they hail then traveled over thirty miles since twelve o'clock, over : some of the muddiest, roughest and. most disagreeable roads, they roue home, j about six miles, one of the happiest couples in the world. How to Cook Rice. Measure three tablespoonfuls of rice with a light hand and do not heap them. Wash the rice twice in warm water, letting it stand in the water half an hour; then drain off the water, put the rice in a large pudding dish, pour over it a quart of milk, add four tablespoonfuls of white sugar, with butter the size of a walnut, and a saltspoonful of salt. Grate ^utmeg over the top and place in a moderate oven. Now, the excellence of this pudding depends upon the baking, li your oven is right it will take about two ' hours. After the first half hour open the door and stir the pudding. Several times in the course of baking a rich creamy brown crust comes upon the sur- j face and should be broken, allowing the 1 milk to cover it, when another crust will form. The pudding should be quite ' thin when taken from the oven. Let it get very cold by putting it on ice, if you have it. When cold it should be of th e consistency of boiled custard. A pleasant change can be made by adding a large handful of raisins. It will be nece ssary to allow another cup of milk.

Jimmy aspires to a profesand attends the Lincoln school, he stands high in his class, Some of Washington's Notables. A correspondent writing of Washington and its notables, says : A very notable man in those days (1853) was Dr. Louis F. Tasistro,who after a dropsy such as hardly any man had ever recovered from, liad come to the reading room of Willard's Hotel, on one of the ' last days I was in Washington, like one raised from the dead, to seize the first old acquaintance in reach for the twentyfive cents which he mtist pay for his drink of good brandy. This veteran of "" * 1 ? * - 1 . tiie dinner tame 01 Kings ana nooies, 01 Presidents and diplomats, guilty of nothing new but age and consequent incapacity, was the most literal and typical outcome o? a life purely in and of the world that could be imagined. Born of a family of rank in England, with uncommon talents, classical and personal i attainments, taste and culture, he held a commission in the "Guards," a peculiar distinction for a British officer, and married a lady eminent both for beauty and fortune. In person, he approached the colossal, with a most impressive physiognomy; and a figure uniting the powerful and the graceful beyond the most favored men. Yet, poor Tasistro brought hinlself early in life into nothing but a man of fashion with a fashionable wife. Time exposed the folly, wasted the fortune, separated :he family, estranged old associations, and thrust him into a world* of struggle. But for his love of luxury and his voluptuous practices, even yet so magnificent a man might have come to himself; but perhaps it was not to be expected. It was only after he was relatively a fallen man that he came to America, where, indeed, he was welcomed into the homes and into the studies of half the grand and gifted folks on the continent. At Washington he was given a place in the State department, where his life and very nativity in the bcaxi monde, inseparable from diplomacy, made him serviceable to the sometimes unsophisticated secretary. When I first saw him, in 1853, at a dinner party at General Jesup's, he was not a whit less an autocrat than old Sam Johnson used to be at Sir Joshua Reynolds' or Mr. Thrale's. Yet he was already waning, and soon was displaced from the office of translator for the State department by a native American production, only more marvelous in some respects, who, to an utter and perfectly honest contempt for Tasistro, united a special ambition to surpass his predecessor in social prominence. That was Alexander Dimitry, of Louisiana. When Mr. Mar^y was asked to appoint him, and the surprising multitude of lan uages were catalogued that Dimitry cjuld speak, his exclamation was characteristic : " Why, he must have graduated a. tbe tower of Babel." Professor Dimitry, a native of New Orleans, was of Greek descent, as the name (equivalent to Demetrius) indicates, on the father's side, but from the extraordinary darkness of his complexion, felt called on to seize the satire of an enemy on which , to found a suit at law in which to put to rest forever the suspicion of any African mixture, of which, indeed, his whole physiognomy was a striking contradiction. In his boyhood he had been sent to Georgetown College, where his achievements, particularly in Greek literature aud rhetoric, distinguished him all over the country as a prodigy. His spirit was strikingly imperious, his dex teritv in argumentation very like that of Dr. Johnson, and his command "both of i the abundance and the propriety of language, such that I dare ray he has had in those gifts no rival to this day. His social qualities were extremely winning, genial and affectionate, notwithstanding his boisterous Johnsonian arrogance, which, however, he knew how to temper on occasion very well. His wife was a beautiful woman, daughter of Mr. Mills, one of the architects of the Capitol, and his numerous children, all handsome, gifted and brilliant in social life. Professor Dimitrv was appointed United States minister to Nicuragua, in Central America, by Mr. Buchanan, whence, on his return in 1861, he passed through the lines, and cast his lot with the South. A French Lady's Experience. A lady of thirty, a plump and jolly brunette., sees with some anxiety a dark, downy line penciling itself on her superior lip. She does not care to compete with the bearded woman, and consults the advertisements. She finds just what she wants?a depilatory pomade, warranted to remove the most obnoxious mustache woman ever had in five applications. She obtains a box at a price of ten francs, and follows the directions on the label with care. The moustache thrives on the depilatory, and after a while madam yields td the inevitable, and consoles herself by reflecting that it might be worse. Three or four years roll by, and she sees with alarm that her hair is beginning too thin. A trifle of mustache can be borne, but a bald head never, and again she has recourse to the advertisements. She finds the article she needs?a miracle pomade?to increase the th'ckness and beauty of her hair. On vis* ug the shop she is stupefied. It is tl same shop, the same attendant, th< same bottle at the same price, the * me pomade so far as she can judge fro* appearances. Only the label has bee changed. The merchant, on being sc. erely examined, admits that it is the same pomade. It failed so utterly to remove hair that he turned it into a hair invigorator. With great joy the customer buys a pot and applies it? and her hair goes on falling out faster than ever Willing to Verify. A passenger on a street car line gave a driver, noted Dofil lor His politeness ituu shrewdness, a five dollar-bill, and asked for change. The driver, as we are told, gave him $9.90 iu change. The passenger on getting out informed-him that he had made a mistake. The driver answered it was too late to verify; it was not their practice, unless done at the time the change was given. "But," insisted the passenger, ''you must verify this time." "No," replied the driver, "I have had that thing tried before; it is too late." "All right," was the response, "I have $4.90 here which belongs to you. If you won't take it, I will keep it." "Oh! that makes a difference," said the mollified driver. " Thank you." And he verified.

A man who will chaw turbacker will ' drin k Jamaiker rum, and a man that will , drink Jamaiker rum will go to ruin, and a man that will go to ruin is mean enuff ' to do enneything.

The romantic story of pretty Jennie Burdick and her Russian lover, told in the papers, lias had a happy ending. Jennie escaped for the second time from the parental home, and was nlarr ed to Lieut. De Kalands, of the Russian fleet, by a justice of the peace in Solano county, California. Jennie's course is intcrQQ+innr in oororol Trova SllA is nOTV of VDVIU^ i U WV T VA nujwi w | age, and the objections of her parents to ' the marriage seem to have had 110 other foundation than prejudice against the nationality of the Russian who is now her husband. It is to be hoped that the devotion of De Kajands to his California wife will not wane, and that in far-off lands and coming years he will not forget all that she suffered and ventured to become his. Prof. TyndalTs Warning. Iu concluding an address to the students of University college (London),'Prof. Tyndall, who is unquestionably one of the most indefatigable brain workers of'our century, said: "Take care of your health. Imagine Hercules as oarsman in a rotten boat; what can he do there but by the very force of his stroke expedite the ruin of his craft. Take care of the timbers of your boat." The distinguished scientist's advice is equally valuable to all workers. We are apt to devote all our energies to wielding the oars, our strokes fall firm and fast, but few of us examine or even think of the condition of our boats until the broken or rotten timbers suddenly give way and we find ourselves the victims of a calamity which could have been easily avoided by a little forethought. What began ! with a slight fracture, or perhaps even a careless exposure to disorganizing influences, ends in the complete wreck of the lifeboat. The disease which began with a slight headache or an .undue exposure to cold, terminates iu death : unless its progress is checked and the disease j remedied. The first symptoms, the heralds of ; disease, give no indication of the strength of j 11-- ? r? +V,nf IIJC Uil-CUIILJJlg lll't HMU uic tiunn uus? w.uv I liis old alJv. Nature, will exterminate theinva- j dcr. But Disease is an old general and accom- , plishes bis most important movements in the night time, and some bright morning finds him in possession of one of the strongest fortifications ; and when he has .once gained a strong hold in the system. Nature ignonririously turns traitor and secretly delivers the whole* physi- i cal armory to the invader. Like the wily politician, Nature is always on the strongest side, and the only way to insure her support is to ! keep your vital powers in the ascendant. Keep ! your strongest forts?the stomach and liver? well guarded. Do not let the foe enter the arterial highways, for he will steal or destroy your i richest merchandise and impoverish your king- i dam.
