San Fuanctsco papers report the death lately in that city, in the most "wretched statu of destitution, of a wellknown character, Johnny Skne, who seven years ago was estimated to be worth three millions of dollars. He was employed at Virginia City as an operator in the California Telegraph Company when the four bonanza kings? Flood, O'Brien, Mackay, and Fair?were developing their operations connected with the silver mines in California and Virginia City. They communicated with each other in cypher. Skae discovered the key to the cypher and became aware, long in advance of every one else, of the marvel's which were to astonish the public. All the money he could command or borrow he invested in shares of the two mines, and when the allotment was finally settled and public excitement had somewhat cooled, it was found that the telegraph operator was worth three million dollars. But he was not content, and speculated largely in much less safe investments, so that when the commercial crash came soon after it quite ruined him. He disappeared from view ^ . until a year ago, when a policeman in San Francisco found him lying in the street at night, hopelessly drunk, with only a few small coins. Mr. Hughes, a New York boiler maker, who has spent much time in thinking how hard it is to get up and light the lire.on cold mornings, exhibited recently the contrivance by which he does away Avitli the hardship. The invention, which is patented, is a tin clock, which can be set like an ordinary alarm clock. If you want your fire started at 0 you sot the clock for that hour aud put it on a stool before the stove crate. At 0 a snrintr moves. brin<r ing down with a rush a short metal rod projecting from the back of the clock. A match is fastened to the rod so that it will rub against a piece of sandpaper and go off. A strip of paper fastened to the clock connects with the kindling in the grate, lights the fire, and there you are with a warm room to get up in. A second contrivance in tin? clock can ring . ' an alarm and wake you up as soon as the fire has had time to warm up the room. The clock wa? made to work repeatedly k and never failed. Mr. Hughes said he ' ' used it on his stove all last winter. A Viennese jmper contains an advertisement which runs as follows:?"My j name is Frederick. I am as poor as I am ugly, and if anything can exceed my I stupidity it is my disagreeable character. In spite of these disadvantages I aspire to marry. Is there any lady who will havo me ?" This is not a very inviting programme, but the gentleman has had many letters of inquiry. Women have an instinctive insight into human nature, , and probably feel that the advertiser cannot be as stupid as he declares himself, and may have better qualities than he pretends. At most he requires some kind individual to console him for his i uenciencies, ana oia maias as a rule are self-sacrificing creatures. Recent statistics show that in 1884 the number of boiler explosions in the United States was 152, being less than in the previous year. There were 244 persons killed and 201 injured in them, I however, and the number is much larger than it should be. Fifty-six of the exI plosions took place in saw mills, where the so.-called engineer finds a too facile fuel in shavings. Men chosen for such positions should have the gumption to perceive that such firing generates steau 1/ too rapidly for* safety. These people can reduce the general death rate if they wish, and can est ecially reduce the present high percentage of mortality i , among sawmill engineers. The custom of giving tips continues, "but the man who resorts to it is only enrifhine tl\r> lintp) livnnripfAr wlincn . o r 1 coffers are already full, and the servant whom he would bribe to do his duty is just as poorly off in this world's goods as ever. If you get'your boots blaekcd at the Grand Pacific, in Chicago, according to a local paper, pay the "porter to bring down your trunk, hand the waiter a small sum to secure you a favorite dish, and drop a dime to the bell boy ! for brushing' your clothes, the money so given must be turned over to the bookkeeper of the house, and gors into the profits of the concern. This is also the rule at the Palmer. A Prince Edward Island girl drove up fo a store in liose Valley and gracefully alighting from her wagon inquired * :the pi ice ot a barrel of flour. The proprietor pointed to a barrel on the plat form and said: "Miss , if you can put that barrel of flour it your wagon you can have it for nothing." The trader is not given to charity, and his disgus-t was conspicuous when the fair maid gripped the barrel and landed it clean over the front wheel into the wagon, took her seat upon it, thanked the merchant for his gift, and drove off ! amid the cheers of those who witnessed the performance. A natural bow that, is on exhibition at the Brownsville (Oregon) Post-office is described by the San Francisco Examiner. It is a vine maple about eight , feet in length, has the curves of an ordinary Indian bow, and, strange to say, is already strung with a slender limb-that grows out of one end into the other so perfectly that at first sight it 1 # * F, wuuiu uu quite uiracuit ior one to detect at which end the limb begun. The bow , is about three inches thick, and the string part is about one-fifth of lhat thickness, and is strong enough to shoot ?n arrow 200 yards.

The "Grand River I Ditch," in western Colorado, at the be- f ginning, is thirty-five feet wide at the I bottom, fi.ty feet wide at the top, five r feet deep for the first ten miles, then c diminishing until the last two and a half are sixteen feet wide at the bottom, with three feet deep of water. Tiie j grade is a little over twenty-two incites to the mile, which gives a strong current. One company engaged in the irrigating business has constructed over 100 miles of canals in the Rio Grande valley at a j i cost of $750,000. , i . It is so difficult, to distinguish between Chinese faces that the courts of San Francisco are likelv to be imposed upon, some other Chinaman than the one charged with offence sometimes appearing to answer. A case of the kind happened only a few days ago, when a Chinese merchant sent a substitute into * court to be tried. The deception was discovered, however, and both men were F punished. It is now customary to ex- lt amine closely all Chinese offenders when ? they are arrested, and take an inventory 1 of all molds and scars on their faces. A lately published report on the British army gives the number of recruits inspected for 1833 ut 59,430, of 1 .whom 23,595 were rejected as unfit for service. There seems to be no further reason for the popular belief that Ireland fights England's battles, for the recruits J born in England numbered 773 per . 1,000. Scotland gave but 91, and Ire- / land 125 per 1,000. The number of short men offered was unusually large, so much so as to give rise to a question whether Englishmen were decreasing in stature. Fishing at Nassau is accompanied with some eccentricities. At certain seasons of the year the jew fish lies dormant about the sandy bottom and refuses to take the bate. The native fishermen seeing through the transparent waters ; the fish in this condition dive down and place a stout hook in his mouth! The fish cannot well refuse the buit. in these circumstances. [ PnoK. A. Laxdmakk, director of the Norwegian fisheries, lias studied the capability of salmon to jump waterfalls, lie has seen a salmon jump sixteen feet perpendicularly in the Drams Hiver, at llaugscnd, where two great masts hnve been placed across the river for the study of the habits of the salmon, so that exact measurements may be effected. A petition has been tiled in the Fulton Ga., Superior Court, by a woman, who asked permission to change her present name, which she received with her second husband, to that of licr first, "who was an affectionate, true and devoted husband," while her second (now dead), she avers, made her life a burden.

A BANKER'S STORY. Tlic Clerk Wlio llud n Chance to 8teal $100,000 aud Would Not. ??? / "I can tell you a true story of a young broker's clerk who, from deliberate honesty, threw away an opportunity to steal $100,000 when he knew he would never be detected," said a New York broker. "When George 1. Seney was speculating heavily in railroad securities lie had a large amount of bonds hypothecated with a first-class Wall street fiim. The bonds bore interest-paying coupons, <inr? iinrloi* rvF 4Ka UUU IIU\?V1 IV1J1IO v/i IUV 11J lion Mr. Seney's clerk was to have access to tliem every six months for the purpose of clipping the coupons. Tho clerk was known to the broker's firm. One day when lie dropped in to cut oil some coupons, the hypothecated securities were handed to him, and he wat left alone in one compartment of the offices. The firm, of course, retained in its possession a list of all the hypothecated securities, which it was accus-' tomed to compare with the securities returned by the clerk. On this particular occasion the clerk found infolded in Mr. Seney's package other good negotiable bonds of the value of $100,000. They had evidently got mixed up with Mr. Seney's securities through one o 1 thoRC unexplainable mistakes that happen very rarely in brokers' offices. "The clerk cut off the coupons that he had come after and restore*1 the package of securities to a ..representative of the firm. The extra $100,000 of bond; had been slipped into the clerk's coal pocket. Mr. Seney's securities wew compared one by one with tho check list and found to bo alf right. "'Is everything there?" asked the clerk.' " 'Oh, yes,' said the broker, as he pre pared to put away the box. 'Everything is as straight as a string.' 44 'You are sure that there were no , other bonds in that box ?' " 'Perfectly,' answered the broker, with a confident air. 'We never *get things mixed up here.' 44 'Well, how about this $100,000 of bonds ?' asked the clerk, drawing the extra securities from his pocket. The broker recognized them instantly, and mentioned the name of the person to whom the} belonged. His astonishment knew no bounds wheu the clerk told him where tho bonds had been found. The broker said that he would ? have sworn in court that those identical 1 bonds were in a certain place in his private safe.

U*ofollowingstoiy?which is attracting wide Ueotion from t.ho press?is so remarkable :iat we cannot excuse ourselves if we do not Iv before our readers entire: 7) the Editor of the Rochester (N. Y.) Democrat. I Sta;- -On the first day of June, 1881, I lay at j ^esidenco in this city surrounded by my I riends a>ud waiting for death. Heaven only j nowithc agony I then endured, for words can ever describe it. And yet if a few ysars preious any one had told me that 1 was to bo rought so low, and by so terrible a disease, I i liould havesoofTed at the idea. 1 have always | oen uncommonly strong and healthy, and reighed over 2JQ pounds, aud hardly knew, in ly own experience, what pain or sickness ( rere. Very many people who will rend thin i tntement realize at tiinos they are unusually , ired and cannot account for it. They feel j ull pains in various parts of the body and do ot understand why. Or they nre exceedingly ungry one day and entirely without anpeLile iio next. This was just, the way 1 felt when lie relentless malady which had fastened tself upon mo llr.st began. Still 1 thought othing of it; that probably I had taken <*<x>ld ,lucli would soon pass away. Shortly after ilia I notioed a heavy, and at times neuralgic ain in one sido of my head, but as it would 1 ome one day and bo gono the next, I paid I ittlt, attention to it. Then my stomach would ct out of order and my fotxl often ailed to digest, causing at. times greut [^convenience. Yot, even as a physician, I did ot think that these things meant anything erious. I fancied I was suffering from malaria nd doctored myself accordingly. But 1 got 10 better. I next noticed a peculiar color and dor about tho fluids I was passing?also that here were largo quantities one day and very ittle the next, and that a persistent froth and cum appeared upon tho surface, and a sedinent settled. And yet I did not realize my langer, for, indeed, seeing those symptoms ontinually, I Anally became accustomed to hem, and my suspicion was wholly disarmed >y the fact that / had tu> pain in the alTected irgans or in their vicinity. Why I should have >eon i^> blind I cannot understand. I consulted the best medical skill in the land, visited all tho famed mineral springs iu Vmerlca and travelod ficm Maine to Califorlia. Still I grew worn#. No two physicians igrecd as to my malady. One said I was roubled with spinal irritation, another, dys)ei>sia: another, iieart disease; another,general Icbllity; another, congestion of the base of the jrain; and so on through a long list of oommon liseases, tho symptoms of m iny 01" which I eally had. In this way several years passed, luring which time I was steadily growing vorse. My condition had really become pitiable. The Might symptoms I at first expori;nced were developed into terrible and constant disorders. My weight had been reduced rrom 207 to 130 pounds. My life was a burden xi myself and friends. I could retain no food >n my stomach,and lived wholly by injections. [ was a living mass of pain. My pulso was uncontrollable. In my agony I frequently fell to the floor and clutched the onrpet, and prayed lor death! Morphine had little or no effect in [leadening the pain. For six days and nights ] liad tho death-premonitory hiccoughs constantly! My water was Ailed with tube-casu und albumen. I was struggling with Bright'! Disease of the kidneys in its last stages. While suffering thus I received a call from ny pastor, the Rev. Dr. Foote, at that timerecor of St. Paul's Episcopal church, of this city. . felt that it was our la-t interview, but in the ;ourse of conversation Dr. Foote detailed to ^e the many remarkable cures of cases like nv own which had come under his obferva ion. As a practicing physician and a graduate >f the schools, I doridcd the idea of any m?di:ine outside the regular channels being in the east beneficial. So solicitous, however, was 3r. Foote, that I finally promised I would waive my prejudice. I began its use on the Bi st day of June, 1881, and took it according to lirections. At first it sickened mo; but this 1 liought was a good ttlgn for one in my debilitated condition. I continued to take it; the sickening sensation departed and I wus finally ible to retain food upon my stomach, in a few lays I noticed a dccided change for the better, as also did my wife and friends. My hiccough* :cascd and I experienced loss' pain than formerly. I was so rejoiced at this improved conlition that, upon what I believed but a few lays before was my dyinc bed, I vowed, in the presence of my family and friends, should I rc L-over i won in coin puuneiy ana privavciy nuike known this remedy for the good of humanity, wherover and whenever I had an opportunity, and thin letter is in fulfillment ol Lhat vow. My improvement was constant from that time, and in lees than throe months [ had gained pounds in flesh, became entirely free from pain and I believe I owe my ife and present condition wholly to Warner's uifo cure, the remedy which I ummI. Sinco my recovery I lmvo thoroughly rc-inrefltlRated the subject of kidney difficulties and Bright's disease, and the truths developed ure astounding. I therefore state, deliberately, and as a physician, that 1 believe more than vie-haif the deaths which occur in Amcrica arc rauncd by BrlyhVn dtmaxe of the UUlneys. This nay sound like a rash statement, but I am prepared to verify it fully. Bright's disease lias no distinctive features of its own (indeed, it )ften develops without any pain whatever in Uo kidneys or their vicini y), but has the lymptoins of nearly every other common comilaint. Hundrods of people die daily, whoso rarials are authorised by a physician's cortitl:ate as occurring from '"Heart Disease," " Apojlexy," "Paralysis," "Spinal Complaint," 'Rheumatism." "Pneumonia," and the other Bommon complaints, when in reality It is from Brlght's disease of the kidneys. Few physicians, and fewer people, realize the extent of this.diseaso or its dangerous and insidious nature. It steals into the system like a thief, ' manifests its presenoe if at all by the commonest symptoms and fastens itself in the constitution ^.store the victim in aware of it. It ia nearly as hereditary as consumption, quite as common and fully as fatal. Entiro families, inheriting it from their ancestors, iiave died and yet none of tho number knew or realized the mystorlou* power which was removing them. Instead of common symptoms it of ten shows none whatever, but brings death suddenly, from convulsions, apoplexy or heart disease. As one who has suffered, and knows by bittei experience what he says, I implore every on? who reads these words not to neglect th? slightest symptoms of kidney difficulty. No on? can afford to hazard such chanoes. I make the foregoing statements based upon facta which I can substantiate to the letter. 'The welfare of those who may possibly be sufferers such as I was is an ample inducement for me to take the step I have, and if I can jraccessfally warn other* from the dangerow path In whioh I once walked, I am willing to 'endure all the professional and personal con* setiuenoe*.

Thousands of people annually ruiu their constitution by simply swallowing too much medicine. It may seem a very strange thing for a medical man to say, but it is nevertheless the fact. It ft a dangerous thing to tly with every little ailment to the medicine chest. The use of tonics, unless under medical advice, should be discountenanced; a tonic i* snarper tnan a two-edged sword, it is :i tool that needs to be used with caution. There are now, I am soiry to see, sonic aerated waters coming into use which contain the strongest mineral tonics, that are apt to accumulate in the system with the. most disastrous results. They should, therefore, not be drunk ad libitum as tc 1 quantity, or without guidance to quality, i Rest should be taken with great regular- i ity. One day in seven should be set ! apart for the complete rest of both body j and mind. Independent of this, all .who j can alTord it should take an annual holi- I day. Travelling is quite cheap, and two | weeks or a month's relaxation from care I and business cannot make a big hole in J the purse of one who works all the rest of the year and knows how to economize time. Innocent pleasure and wholesome recreation conduct, to longevity. All work and no play sends Jack to an early grfcve. Recreation is to the mind and nervous system what sunshine is to the blood. As a physician, T mu.-st lie allowed to say just one word about the calming, ' quieting elTect of religion on the mind.
