Price and Work Satisfactory A representative of the Lkadkk in company with Senator Crosuo and Albett Peterson on Tuesday week visited the A vies coal mine, which is located in section 13, nbout a mile and a half west of Toledo. We found Captain Ayles a very plensnnt geulkMimn, who showed utk their prospects. They nre run ning a tunnel about 5x6 feet nnd have gone into the mountain side n distance of 145 feet. They expect to reach the vein within the next thirty feet The Captain has good experienced men, and is building a good tunnel, timbering and log ging it in a good substantial man ner. The mine is locnted one-half mile from tidewater, nnd if sufficient coal is found will bo very easy of access. We hope thnt the company may realize their f .'iidest hopes, ns such enterprises are the making of our country. Granny Matthews' mouth got loose again last week nnd said "The County Court took the adver tising out of the hands of the sheriff, and instead of letting the contract to the lowest bidder, let the job for printing the delinquent tax list, to the Leader for $558. It is safe to say the tax payers are in (or $500 for this publication notice. Hut then we nre not recompensed for this small outlay of $500 by having a delender of the peoples interests nt the county scai. Lu to be paid for, nnd nble exponents of public economy cannot work for nothing. Granny, you wouldn't lie, would you? Now did or did not Sheriff Land is wnit six long days for you or your sou to come nnd bid on the tax list?

The latest railroad news is em bodied in the following circular is-. sued by Receiver Hadley: "All Employes and Material Menj The court having decided to con tlnue the operation of this property until such time as it can agaiq be) offered for sale, it becomes the duty of all of us to calmly consider the situation, and each one be prepared. to do all that is within his power to protect the common property, which is the security and the only security which any of us have for the ultimate payment of the sums, now due you. We can expect no nkl from without.' The property 1 must earn its own bread. It thus becomes our; duty the duty bf self-, protection to combine our efforts to make such sacrifices that "the property will, if possible, earn its own living. To this end the re- ceiver asks the hearty co-operation of every employe and of every man to whom this property owes a dol lar.

We often hear our business men ani our farmers say, just wait until the railroad g' cs ahead, then times will be good. This is no doubt true, but why wait until the road is built before we make n move. Why not go ahead and improve our farms and dcvelope our resources as best we can, and be in good shape to enjoy prscrity and good limes The trouble in all new countries is there ore a certain class of people who want to sell out and go farther west, as soon as civilization advances. This is all right, but if a farm is let to grow up to brush and weeds it does not present a very good appearance to the stranger looking for a location. We have always observed that im proved property will (tell over un improved. There is a farmer living near Toledo that took up a home stead on a rough hillside, and is now farminif about one acre of level land and three or four acres of a mountain side. This man has good barns and out buildings and a neat cottage to live in, and is lay ing up several hundred dollars every year for a rainy day. Notwith standing, he has a large family to support. We only cite this instance I to show the fact that if one man Christmas day passed off nicely. Everyone enjoying Chrismas din tiers, but as I couldn't attend them someone was kind enough to send me a nice Chrisinas cake.

The attempt to escape was evidently prear ranged, as they threw stones at the guards and ran in the direction w here only one guard was stationed.

The President has nominated C. H. Dabney, Jr., of Tennessee Assistant Sec retary of Agnculture. The Senate Committee on Military Af fairs has authorized a favorable report upon the bill for the relief of the citi zens of Oregon, Idaho and Washington who served in the Bannock, rez Perces ana enoenone wars, it gives each ft a day for the time in service, and entitles those wounded or disabled or the heirs of those killed to pensions. It is tacitly understood that the Fed eral elections bill shall not lie called up for action until after the holidays, al though any Senator may call it up at anytime (or the purpose of making a speecn. l lie vote bv winch the out was reported was a strict party one. The unusual feature of the vote was that the absent members of tLe committee were voted by proxy. Senator Squire has introduced a bill to create the Washington National Park near Mount Maimer from what is now known as the Pacific forest reserve. A petition from the Seattle Chamber of Commerce accompanies the hill. He also introduced a bill suggested by Judge Hanford regarding United States' Courts in Washington; also a bill for the pro motion of Lieutenant A. I!. Wyckofi to the rank of Lieutenant Commander. The Oregon delegation was very active in securing the extension of time for set tlers on the forfeited railroad lands until 1807. Representative Kllis' bill went from the House. to the Senate, ami Sen ator Dolph hud it ptiHsed immediate1)' without reference to a committee. Sen ator Dolnh had introduced and had re- xtrted from his Committee on Public ,ands a bill of a similar character, and so the parliamentary status of the meas ure gave him an opportunity to put it through without any delay. Settlers on these lands will be greatly liencllted bv the extension granted, especially during these hard times. I he bill for the admission of Utah war passed without division by the House at the conclusion of the debate. New lands of Nevada made his maiden speech in support of admission. He thought Utah was fully prepared for Statehood, but objected to leaving the allotment of lands in Utah to bureau oflicers in Waslung .is.i i .i n too, woo oio not umiersiano me condi tions there. The United States, he said should co-operate in the reclamation of the arid lands In that region. In ilc fending Nevada he said he was unable to understand whv there should he ho much aversion to a State which, when the count rv was in revolution, had poured KIOO.000.000 into the Treasury. New- lands claimed the cause ol the present depression in Utah was the result ol leg islation leveled at her interests. Tho annual report of Prof. Mcnden hall, chief ol the coast geodetic survey, is interesting. The report says that pre liminary surveys needed for the location of a northeastern boundary line between the United States and Canada are Hear ing completion. The survevs have been begun for the location of the houndarv line between California and Nevada from Lake Tain mi to the Colorado river, and nmcers of the survey have been sent to Southeastern Alaska under instructions to co-operate with oflicers detailed by the Dominion of Canada to locate the boundary line between Alaska and Brit ish Colombia. In accordance with re quests the survey detailed an oflicer to act as a member of the lioard of engi neers to devise a system of seuerageaml grading of streets in San Francisco ami to co-operate with the llarlsir LineConi inission of the Statu of Washington in the harlsir surveys of Puget Sound. The Committee on Public hands re ported favorably c prescntativo Her mann's bill preserihing limitations for the completion of titles of lands in Ore- f;on and Washington claimed under the aw commonlv known as the "donation act." The 1st day of January, lHlifi, is llxed as the ieriod within which li mil proofs can be made, and thereafter all such lands under incomplete proof will he held abandoned and the lands will become part part of the public domain and subject to settlement. Such laud as may have been claimed by purchase from the original claimant, or occupied and in undisturbed possession for twenty years by such purchasers ami occupants, or heirs at law or devisees, shall have pref erence of right of title by purchase or payment of $1 25 per acre w ithin ninety davs after January 1, 1HII5. The bill is recommended by several Commissioners of the general land otlice and the pres ent Secretary of tho Interior. The majority roMrt on civil service for the present year is a document of alsmt 15,000 words.

THE MIDWINTER EXPOSITION. The best npws of the week in connec tion with the corning California Midwin ter International Exposition has been the extension of the time limit of excur sion tickets from the Last to thirty days. This means that those who go to Califor nia to see the Midwinter txposition will have a month in which to vUil other oarts of the State besides those contigu ous to San Francisco, and that the bene fits to be derived by the enti-e Pacific Coast will be correspondingly multiplied. And just here there ought to tie a word said about the number of visitors that may reasonably be expected to come out of the frozen ast to hibernate in the country Where the never Udet In the stilt bloom And the Iwe banquets on through whole year oi uowerH. Those who have already arrived at San Francisco as the advance guard of the grand army of midwinter continent crofisers say that the influx of visitors will exceed the most sanguine expecta tions of the friends of tne exposition Fastern railway managers are constantly sending to the department of publicity and promotion for advertising matter in connection with the fair. Their patrons are hungry for information on the sub ject. Some of them are so hungry that more than one of the great trunk lines have deemed it necessary to prepare vast quantities of matter, based on the mate rial furnished by this department, with which to satisfy the popular demands. All this means that thousands of people in the Fast are going to take advantage of cheap rates and the special attractions of the exposition as an excuse for mak ing a long-promised trip to the land of sunshine, fruit and flowers." Meanwhile the list of attractions con tinues to grow, and there will be lively times durini! the next three weeks, get ting all the concessions in readiness for the opening day. There is one feature o( the contemplated attractions, how ever, (or which no elaborate building has to be erected, and yet it is one in which a very wide-spread interest centers, and that is the grand athletic tournament. This to'irnament is to cover the entire term of the exposition. The contests vill pot be on pneh sneppedinu dav'n pro gramme, but there will lie several events each week, and every Saturday will be largely devoted to this feature. There will be games of lacrosse between Brit ish Columbian and American teams; there will be polo matches between swell society riders; there will be foot ball games between college ami univer sity teams; there will be races and all sorts of contests on the cindar path, and last, thouuh by no means least, a series of baseball games, in which the entire Pacific Coast is invited to take part. With a viejfv3Nii'i;:ilit.-tir.(r artange monts for JTSieiitioned feature in this. con nectin Colonel T. P. Robinson x". in Fr.,l.',c'Ico has been selected to ar range the games on the diamond field, and in order to have the largest possible number of clubs participate that gentle man desires the addresses of every uni formed baseball club not only in the State of California, but in all the States of the Pacific Coast. These addresses should lie sent to him at Boom 32, second floor, Mills building, San Francisco, and based upon the number of addresses of intending participants which may be re ceived, there will be arranged such a baseball tournament as has never before been seen anywhere in the world. In the long list of other attractions it is dillicult to select one that iB worthy of more special mention than the rest, but perhaps the latest added features may lie the most interesting. The very latest and the most startling of all the sugges tions that have been forthcoming in the form of concessional features of the fair is that which is to represent Dante's Inferno," and which has already begun to he spoken of aliout town as hell on earth." This concession is to be located in a very prominent part of the exposi tion grounds, and the character of the entrance to the building containing the exhibit is one that will attract inevitable attention. A great dragon's head, 15 feet in height, with bat-like wings protruding trom either side, seems to crouch against the ground and grin a welcome to the passing crowds. The bat-like wings and entire front, in fact, are gilded to look like burnished gold, and when the sun is reflccctcd from it it presents as brilliant an exterior as one can easily mumine Out of the center of the lower part o( this tigure-head, so to speak, projects long red tongue of the dragon, and onto this those who care to venture in must step and walk between the teeth o( the dragon's lower jaw into the very body of the tieast. The interior arrangements of these internal regions are rendered remark ably effective by the highly colored sta lactites w Inch hang from the walls, and liirh setuu to extend for miles, almost, away in the distance. 11ns perspective is produced bv means of mirrors. There are mirrors on every hand, and never before has there been a bctterutilization of tho looking-glass for illusiomirv pur poses. Hidden lights are made use of to add to the ellects ol the scene, ami in tricacies of passage are also brought into play. In one large grotto a stage is erected, and halt a dozen skeletons, dancing gro tesquely in the foreground, are so re flected bv mirrors that their number seems to bo "legion." At another point after traversing several tortuous avenues the visitor conies upon a clever construe tiou of mirrors alxive and below and with lights so arranged that there really seems to he no top or 1mm torn to the place, and hence the name of the "Bottomless Pit." Only a little farther away the visitor comes to the Fndloss Cave," produced in the same w ay and quite as interesting. As the visitor to this remarkable place progresses from point to point, he rises to a higher elevation, ami lv traversing an almost imperceptible grade ho finally tluds himselt on the shore of a great l ike, into which pours a fall of lava, and it is here perhaps that he get the liost idea of tin representation ot the "in fernal regions." The effect is produced, of course, by colored light playing upon the deoo'ations of the structure and by diver and sundry device for the en hancing of these effect. There is much ttiat is grotesque alsmt the dancing skel etons in the cave referred to, and there is considerable that is uncanny in every part of this arrangement, but there is nothing that is 'tisgusting and terrifying, though there is much to amuse. When people turn to cn out after having seen all the show they tind themselves con fronted by numberless passages which seem to lead everywhere, but which reallv lend nowhere, for when you start to follow one you run plump acninst a mirror, and the result is that befon i ou tind the way out you are fully con vinced that thiparticulartypeo( "hell" is a decidedly jolly place to le in. The fall is an excellent time for pur cha-ing pure-bred stock, as the price. rv then tower than at any other season, ior the reason thai the breeder are re ducing stock before winter set in ami are w illing to make a reduction in price A little linseed oil is healthful as nu tritiou (,vk!

Many insects will be killed if land in fected with plant lice, cut worms, etc., is plowed before freezing weather sets in. There cannot be a thoroughly good farm unless there is a good water supply. If vour farm is wanting in this, spare no effort to correct it. The 1890 butter product in this coun try would require 1.000 freight trains of thirty cars each and each car carrying twenty tons to transport it. The money expended for pure-bred male animals is one of the beet invest ments that can be made, and gains com pound interest in a short time. Sow some clover seed in autumn on winter grain.

One thousand Virginia farmeri within a radius of twenty miles of Norfolk are said to have shipped i 5,000,000 worth of early fruit and vegetables to Northern cities last spring. If you have au old lot or abandoned r ad which is to be cropped next season, plow it this fall so the frosts will have an opiortunity to mellow the ground. Plow again in the spring. Save the liquid manure by using some absorbent material for bedding which can be spread over the fields. Straw, sawdust, old hay, leaves, etc., are good and most of them obtainable in all places. "ien grgen crdV are -plowed umier for the purpose of enriching the soil an application of lime w ill often be of the greatest benefit. It helps to correct the acidity of the soil that olten results from the too rapid fermentation of the green stuff. The fence law which works the great est good to the greatest number is that which compels a man to fence his own cattle in rather than to fence other peo ple's out. Where this is once tried it is not easy to persuade people to go back to the old way. A heavy clay soil will hold water like a basin, and no crop can do its best if the plants have wet feet. A subsoil plow that will break deeply without lilting the under soil will make the cropping of such land much more profitable than it bus been before. In order to be wholly successful a farmer should make his' plans a long time in advance of the dav wdien they must be put in operation. The best way is to mature a plan of operations that will require some vears for fully carrying out. This brings better results thnri the changeable way that some have of try ing one way this year and another the next. restoring land. A WTestern writer gives his experience in restoring land as follows Four years ago I bought a piece of land that' had just raised its third crop of tobacco in line, which had just killed the soil. When I told old farmers what I was go ing to do they laughed at me; so 1 gave the soil a light coat of manure and sowed it to wheat. The next harvest I shocked it in rows, turned the stubble under with three horses on July 2, rolled and dragged the soil, and put on a light coat of ma nure again. On the 4th 1 planted from five to seven grains of corn in hills two feet apart in rows four feet wide plowed three times, and the horse could not get through any more. I cut it just at frost, laid it in bunches for two days, and then put it in shocks. Kesowed the land to wheat. Last harvest I cut my wheat as high as I could. Had a big yield. Put on Borne more manure; planted in corn the same way; only drilled the grain one foot apart. This year is still better, and several farmers that laughed at me now say it was the largest crop they ever saw grow out of the earth, and oiie of them has rented the ground for tobacco next year. I cut the roasting ears and fodder both together in a fodder cutter. Mv horses and cows won't eat anything else while it lasts, and it just pou'rs the nH'.k and butter. My motto is this Plow deer) while imnomrds M.'ep: ou will hnvj corn to te.l and plenty to keep. WHAT AND HOW TO FEED.

11 POLICEMAN'S LOt Why It Is Not Altogether Happy One. niS JOTS AND TRIBULATIONS. How Strong Men Kin From Humble Post to Position! of Great Honor and Respon sibility Chicago'! Xew Superintendent. The Prefei-t or the Parti Police. Those who imagine that a policeman's Ufa Is of a rosy hue from the rising of the san to the going down of the same are likely to be greatly mistaken. Walking the streets Is no serious matter if followed for an hour or two as an amusement, but when prac ticed steadily for 12 hours a day it becomes hard work. The policeman's legs may give out, his ample calves may tremble from sheer fatigue, but he may not sit down, or f he does it is at the risk of missing some- AT THE FItfIT STAND, thing of importance on his beat. He Is held personally responsible for everything that goes on in the district under his charge, and if anything is wrong he must be prepared to explain it. If a dozen "toughs" armed with clubs, brass knuckles, knives, razors, beer mallets, revolvers and other means of defense and offense get into a general fight in a low saloon he must be prepared to rustim single liamieU, mid at the risk oi his life attipt to quell the disturbance and arrest the brawlers. Nor do Efts troubles end here. His place is generally regarded as so desirable that from two to a dozen men are all the time earnestly engaged in the effort to get him put out in order that they may have a chance to get in, and he must accordingly keep on good terms with his superiors and vib P'ec of frflluence on his bei.t f---3,r that he may not liecome unpopular and so be marked for dismissal when the first com plaint is entered against him. But the policeman does not generally take his troubles much to heart. His open air life tends to promote cheerfulness, and cheerfulness promotes digestion, Diges tion in turn helps on his appetite, and the frequency with which he satisfies his hun ger at apple stnnds and free lunch counters by and by gives him an amplitude of waist proportioned to the length of time he bus been on the force. Year by year he increases the size of belt which incloses his manly form. Year by year the amount of mate rial which enters into the regulation uni form Is greater, and as he becomes more comfortable his views of lite enlarge and he becomes more charitable. He regards with a more lenient eye the capers of the street boys, listens with philo sophic patience ami wit bout interference to the quarrels rf truck drivers and answers with eqiiatiiii.itv the questions or Bewil dered old women who have lost their way and find it impossible to understand his di rections. With increasing benevolence comes augmented popularity. He becomes a favorite on his b- at. Hit lies in a resi dence district, he knows all the young and and handsome cooks, and numerous are the delicate little suppers of which he 1b the beneficiary at their charitable hands. If on a down town beat, he Is welcome at the back door of any saloon, and a sandwich and class of beer are always at his service. The most serious drawback to the police man's complete happiness is the fact that no inconsiderable portion of the community regards him as a natural enemy. Among the dissolute and criminal classes this an tagonism is active and perpetual; among other people it is occasional, hut not the less pronounced. He is to nine-tenths of the nponle the only embodiment of the luw they know anything about even to the law abiding the restraints or. law are some- limits irksome. The nnliceman on the beat comes round nrnmnt.lv after the first snow falls in the early winter and notifies the householder tn l,ov it. nhnveled off the pavement. He primes at irrecular but too frequent inter vals to allude to the condition of the alley nr tn mention a slon barrel ill the Due yard or to inquire if there nre any vehicles or dogs on the place on which taxes have not been paid. E!fhtFn",T..rrv. r. him pmiliaily. but everybody understands that behind hiui stand the whole force, and the captains, and the chief, and the govern or, and the militia, and, if necessarv. the blue coated veteran of the regular army and the presideut of the United States. hile the life of a patrolman is tolerably monotonous, the nature of his duties fre quently gives him opportunity for distinc tion and promotion. With 'his feet once firmly planted on the ladder of advance ment, an able and ambitious policeman may climb to positions of great honor and responsibility and may even achieve na tional fame. In this connection the career of Thomas F. Byrnes, who started as a pa trolman and is now superintendent of the New York police department, is suggestive. Byrnes has a worldwide reputation and is known as a detective of extraordinary skill and address. Inspector Williams is an other New Yorker of national celebrity who rose from the humble position of patrol man. Similar examples of the opportunities open to honest, energetic and ambitious po licemen may be pointed out in nearly every large city. There, for instance, is Michael Brennan, who was recently made superin tendent of the Chicago police force. He emigrated to Chicago from Ireland in 1!?03 and entered the police force as a patrolman in 1870. After two years on- his beat he was made desk sergeant Superintendent vY ashburne made him a lieutenant. Under Mayor Cregier he was made assistant su perintendent and retained that p. sition un til Mayor ashburne was inaugurated, when he was honorably retired. Mayor Harrison recalled him to the force on suc ceeding to the mayor's chair and made him again assistant superintendent of police, and when Major R. V. McClaugbry retired from the superintendency a few days ago Mr. Brennan was promoted to that impor tant position. It is rumored that Major McClaughry will soon accept the superintendency of the Michigan state reform school for boys at Pontiac. In retiring from office he said: "I am proud of theChicago police force and proud to have been connected with it, for I consider it the peer of any police organiza tion. Indeed I confidently assert that in view of the disadvantages under which it has to be maintained and conducted it is the best police force in the world. It is much superior to the New York police TMS MlQMfST AWARD, Royal Baking Powder Has All the Honors-tb strength and Talue to Per Ceat Above lu Nearest Competitor.

The Chicago force is in every line of police duty more capable and more effective than that of London. I was proud of the position of superintendent of such a body of men, but I could not longer hamper the mayor by retaining the office." That the civil service idea ulso obtains in the police administration of foreign coun tries is shown by the recent promotion in Paris of M. Louis Lepine to the position of prefect of police. M. Lepine made his ad ministrative aeuuc HI IBi l as siiopreu-ev nt La Palisse, then he was at Montbrison, Langnsand Fontainebleau, whence he was transferred to the Chateauroux as prefect of the department of L'ltulre. He left that office to go to Paris as secretary general or the prefecture of police in Mi, which ollice ho held until ISM. Ho was decorated with the military medal in 18T1, after having served in the army during the 1 rnnco-Prus sian war, and it was while be was prefect of the Loire that he had to superintend the trial and the execution of the famous An archist Rarachol. M. Lepine was prefect of Versailles when he was called to his new office as prefect of police of Pans. Traveling In India A curious modoof conveyance in India Is the thoppa, a long cane basket, with a scat in the middle, from which wings a ennui board to support the feet. Over the beau is a covered ton of cane and cloth. As you sit in this basket a man carries you on his A Clever Dwarf. A magnificent feast had been prepared at Burleigh in honor of the king and queen, and it was arranged that the little dwarf. Jeffrey, should step from a huge venison pastry into her majesty's servic- This mode of appearance was not new even then. A pie with a dwarf inside was thought a "dainty dish to set before a king," and a gift of this kind was often abroad to tli sovereign's favor. On the day of the dinner Jeffrey found himself imprisoned in a large dish, sur rounded by a high wall of standing crust. Of course a way had been found to give him air, but he afterward said he felt buried alive. To add to his discomfort UuckiiigUam slyly ordered lue pie to ue warmed, saying, "It were better eaten warm than cold." Young Jeffrey remained quiet and said never a word as the dish was carried to the kitchen; but he was far from happy and thought of Nebuchadnezzar and the fiery furnace until he grew "warm with appre hension." The cook, however, understood the joke and the dwarf pie was placed In safety on the, royal tablo. At last came the fateful time Vh crowning moment of Jeffrey's life. The pie was opened, the trumpet sound ed and forth sprang the dwarf. He was clad in a full suit of armor and skipped about the table shaking his little sword at some of the guests; and, reniemlH-'ring the scorching the duke bad threatened for him, he gave a vicious little tweak at his grace's uoblo nose. Buckingham diew back in time to save his handsome face and threatened to cudgel the young knave with a chicken bone; but the king laughed and said Buckingham was served quite right. By this time Jeffrey was nearly deafened with applause and half drowned iu the perfumes the ladies sprinkled upon him, so he hastened to end the scene by prust rating himself before the queen s pinto and en treating to be taken into her service.

Every small boy who is anvbod y down ou the heights has a pair of roller skates and a good strong pair of lungs. These boys play hockey on the asphalt pavement of that exclu sive quarter, catch rides on the backs of grocery wagons and keep up a constant and eternal yelling. Why they yell does not appear, it is perhaps because a small boy cannot do much of anything without yelling. These boys go scurry ing around corners on their skates in im minent danger of cracking their own skulls ami to tho great terror of passers by. They dodge under the heads of spir ited conch horses aud altogether make a fresh and healthy nuisauco of them selves. Those poorer boys who are not wealthy enough to afford each a pair of roller skates, split up a pair between two and go about pushing the wheeled foot in front of them, evidently having as much fun ns the rest.

Durinii the Mexican war, while he was major of Hayes' regiment of Texas Hangers, under Ceiieral Wool, he was sent with a sinnll body of men in the direction of San Luis I'otosi to discover the move ments of the Mexican army. There were two roads to San Luis l'otosi, one by Matchuclii, n large town, the other by the trrcnt hacienda of Salado, where the seven teen Texas war prisoners drew black lieans in 110 and were shot. The two roads were divided by a range of mountains. Lane took the left hand, and actually penetrated to and entered the city of Matchiiela with its 20,000 people and a garrison of several hundred men. He ordered and obtained dinner nt a meson, a sort of wagon jard inn, announced that a large American army was near and feasted his men to their full. Then remounting he retired obliquely across the mountain to the other road and struck the hacienda of Salado.
