Toll of 1 I.iVe nnil Property. Every year the life of a miner in the hicrh mountain regions la inenaeed by J the avalanche or snowslide. and every t year brings its list of casualities and . of hairbreadth escapes. The story of j snowslides would till a book and would be a thrilling, tragle and in soma eases i a protvsnmi; one. Men have ridden hundreds of feet on the back of a snowslide and li.ivo es- , eaped unhurt. Others have been caught and buried so deep and in su< li uneer- j tain spots tl;at tiieir bodies have not been discovered until the melting of the snow in the following spring. Some have been caught as they were walking, but a few stej.s from the . ( board in ; li?>use u> the mine, or while emptying a < ar on the mine dump. Not ' infrequently men have found themselves lenipu/arily imprisoned by the! enframe of the mine being closed by ; a ? !! ie while they were at work and have had to ditheir way out. A Chinese cook at one of the Idaho mines stepped outside las kitchen door v for a momeut and was caught and ; lmr'.ed with the slide 1.00b feet down 1 the hillside and his body was not re- g ? overed till oat i.ih spring.

Tlie til-eat livent In Chronicled Nut Only In the Talmud nud Kornn. bet In the I.crcu:!* of Alnicnt Lvory Rltce Thr.t Ever l ived 0:1 Earth. One of (ho most powerful nud vivid descriptive portions of the book of Genesis Is that devoted to the wonderful story of (lie delude. Together with the accounts of Adam's fall, the slaying of Abel and the turning of Lot's wife into a pillar of salt, every one remembers from childhood how Noali was warned of the doom impending over the children of men and how lie eon druetod a huge ark in which he did live, himself and his famil, and two of every bea^t of the Held and fowl o? the air. for the space of ICO days, or until the waters subsided and the dry (ami appeared. But the Biblical recital of this terrible visitation of divine wrath is by no menus the only o.ie. In fact, the most skeptically inclined must believe that something of the sort actually occurred long ago. for it lias been perpetuated not only in the Talmud and Koran, but in the legends of iiniMiM every ii.iiiou nut race timl over lived on the face of the earth, including tlio Chinese, the ancient Aztecs of Mexico, the Indian tribes of North and South America and even the savages of Africa. The story, of course, varies materially in the multitudinous traditions, hut the gist of it remains substantially the same- namely, that the earth was once visited by a great Hood In which nearly every living thing was overwhelmed and lost. Thus in the Koran we read that Noah constructed the ark with divine assistance and was railed at for his pains by the wicked. When the time prescribed for the punishment of mankind arrived, water was seen to flow from the burning oven of Noah's wife, and immediately all the veins and arteries of (he earth broke and spurted out water. Noah was then admonished in those words: "Take and bring into the ark two couples of every kind of animal, male and female, with all your family, except him who has been condemned by j*our mouth,* and receive the faithful and even the unbelieving, hut few only will enter." The Koran' a I ?> says that the ark was bi^ilt in two years and that it contained threw stories, the upper one for the birds, the middle one for the men and the provisions and the hold for the beasts. Canaan, the son of Ilam, refused to he saved. Therefore Noah cursed him, and his posterl- \ ty became black and were ensltved. The Persians assert that Ham incurred his fat tier's malediction as well. When six mouths had passed the ark rested on the top of Mount DJondi (Ararat), after having made the circuit of the worhtv Tabari says that two sou*-' ' nnjrnni* left (liu urk which '? < ,uot en- J(<>PP(I It?(ho tilir ?>!?? (ho I, oucertl- I ion; men xx:;;: 7* ( :au to make trouble the voyaffers comdallied to Noah. Whereupon th patrl- 1 irch "passed his hand down tin* bark ?f the lion, who sneezed, aud the *at . eaped out of its nose. And the cnt ate he rats." According to the Talmud, Noah and lis family and one pair of each hind of jeast were to he saved in the ark, but >f every clean beast seven were to enter in. The rhinoceros, however, had to be left out, for the simple but suftirdent reason that its neck alone was liree miles long. Nevertheless all the 'uhhinic writers agree that the rliiloceros survived the Hood; hence it is I easonable to suppose that the huge least was taken in tow by a rope atached to its horn. Some authorities ikewiso declare that Noah extended lis hospitality to another outsider in he shape of Og, the giant who climbd 011 the roof of the ark and received j lis daily food through a hole bored in ' he side of the vessel. Ararat has been known under this ame for .1.000 years, and an Armenian riter declares that an entire country i as so called after Aral the Fair, nn ucicni Armenian king, who lived bout 1730 H. O. He fell In a bloody at tie with the Babylonians, and the one of his death was thenceforth nown as Aral-Arat, or the Pall of' rai. Josephus refers to the mountain j s Nazuana and declares that the re- I tains of the ark were there to be seen irefnlly preserved. Almost all the Asiatic traditions osely resemble the Biblical account, erosus in his Chaldee history (B. C. Mb speaks of ten kings, who appear > correspond to the ten patriarchs in | tmesis before the flood. The last of j i ese kings was called Xisuthrus. Be- | | sus relates that "Kronos appeared'to ' isuthrus In a dream and warned him _ at all men would he destroyed by a I r luge on the 13th of the month Dae- _ >s and commanded him to write g >wn all the learning and science of I en and to hide It In the sun city ^ paris and then to build a ship and tor it along with his family and rela- ^ os and nearest friends and to take lo it with him turn iirinK ami fists nnil winged fowl.

In Japan tfie uses of the fan are many ami various. They are wleldcil j by men, women and children, by soldier and civilian. A butterfly shaped fan in the hands of the umpire at n wrestling match is made to convey all sorts of messages, which are promptly understood and attended to by the combatants. tJraln is winnowed by the . farmer with a stout fan, and the do- ! niestle servant not only fans the em- t hits or ;i enareoai lire. but she also ! uses her coarse paper fan as a dust- ' pan for taking up the ashes. A Ship's Speed. A ship's speed is reckoned by knots. a knot being a geographical niilo. or ! one-sixtieth of a decree. Six geograph- ! icai miles are about equal to seven statute miles, and a ship that sails 1*2 j knots therefore is really moving at the i rate of fourteen statute utiles an hour. ; It should he remembered that it is in- | i correet to say so many "knots at: : hour." simply so many knots, for a , knot means "one mile an hir.tr."
