Breyfogle was something of a miner in his way, and whilu prospecting in a wild and forbidding region he found a place where he could literally dig great nuggets of gold ont of the decomposed quartz or cement, as he called it, with his knife. As lie described the place, there was n large deposit of an exceed ingly rich character—enough to make the whole party wealthy. He returned to camp, but the travelers were short of provisions and water, the Indians were troublesome and there was no time to waste in mining. They pushed on toward their destina tion, but between the Indians nnd thirst only a few of them ever reached civiliza tion. Breyfogle told his story, exhibted the nuggets he had dng ont and careful ly preserved, and then spent the rest of his life in a fruitless search for the" de posit. Others who heard the story fol lowed his example, and for upward of forty years the Breyfogle mine has been a veritable will-o’-the-wisp, luring men to destruction in the terrible deserts of southeastern California and southwest ern Nevada. A LCCKY STEIKE. George Montgomery, an experienced miner well known in the Wood river re gion of Idaho, was on a prospecting trip in the region to the southeastward of Deatli valley. It should be premised that the old Utah road after leaving San Bernardino city turns through the Cajon pass nnd then strikes oil in a northeast erly direction across the Mojave desert, passing Resting Springs, the Kingston mountains and then traversing the Paiir- ump valley. This valley lies just on the boundnry line between California and Nevada and has a general northwest erly and southeasterly course, the Kings ton mountains lying to the west and the Pahrump range to the east. While prospecting in the mountains last named nnd at the upper end of the valley Montgomery made a discovery which bears every indication of being the long sought Breyfogle mine, or at least one exactly similar. Bat the loca tion answers to that given by Breyfogle, while the gold has been found just os be said—so plentiful that it conld be dng ont in nuggets with a knife. Ono ledge located by Montgomery is eight feet wide, and has been traced by its outcroppings for a distance of 9,000 feet In the decomposed surface rock the gold is found almost like plants in a podding. Pieces of qnartz picked out are from a quarter to half bright yellow gold, while with a hand mortar the lncky discoverer pounded ont in a short time a yeast powder can full of nuggets of various sizes. All along the ledge free gold is fonnd in quantities that as tonish the oldest prospectors nnd which seem scarcely credible. After making several locations Mont gomery spead the news of his discovery, the result being that some thirty or forty miners nre at work in the valley. Mont gomery himself packed up as large a quantity of the richest specimens as he conld carry and made his way across the desert to Daggett, the nearest railroad point, 160 miles away. From there he came to San Francisco. FOBTVNES FOR MANY. To the question whether he was look ing for capital or a purchaser. Mr. Mont gomery returns an emphatic-negative. The mines, he -ays, are the richest ho ever saw, and lie is satisfied that he can realize a furtune by working them. There ought to be* plenty of placer gold in the gulches leading from the ledges that have been discovered, but no effort | has been made to find any. All tbo miners yet in the camp are busy on the quartz claims they liavo located. On ono claim taken up by Montgomery a cross cut has been pushed for twenty feet across the vein without striking the hanging wall, and it is free milling ore all the way. Besides the deposits of gold, some rich silver veins have been fonnd, ussays from which ran over a hundred ounces to the ton. Lead Rnd copper also abound, but at present gold is the sole object of rearch. There is plenty of mesquite wood for fuel in the valley within three or four miles of the newly discovered camp, while in the, mountains, fifteen miles away, are foreets which afford abun dance of timbering material. Water can be had «t a moderate depth in Pahrump valley, while at Ash Meadows, fifteen miles away, are streams which conld be If the handle is, rather short it will lx- an improvement to add a piece of wood to it.

New Use* for an 01.1 Material. Peat, used for fuel from the eurliest times, and long known to be of great value as a fertilizer, now finds so many other applications that its preparation has developed into an industry. Peat powder is serviceable, not only abont stables but elsewhere, on account of its Absorbent and somewhat antiseptic prop erties and low cost. A French snrgeon introduced this powder, treated with au- tiseptic solutions and contained in a cloth bag. as adressing for wounds. The idea, said to be a very old one among the work ing people of some places, was improved upon by another medical man of Paris Dr. Redon, who made a soft and pliable wadding of peat. Other dressings have since crowded these out of hospitals, though the peat applications are coming into use and gaining in favor ameng vet erinary surgeons. Dr. Redon's wadding has yielded important results by leadin to many efforts to produce woven fab ric*, so that peat is now made into mat tresses, coverings, carpets, etc., which are esteemed on nccotuit of their jiower of absorption.—Iron. Which Was Correct? Two young girls who were considered bright scholars in the high school were looking over a birthday book, which was arranged alphabetically, a hand some, illuminated letter forming the heading for each page. I wonder,'' said ono of the girls, there are just as many pages as there are letters in the alphabet, or whether there are some duplicates? Coant the page* and sec, Maud.” Maud turned the leave* rapidly and announced. “There are no duplicates only thirty pages, just a* there are let ters.” ‘•Why, yon goose I” said Alice, “yon’d better go back to primary school. Don’t yon know there are only twenty-four letters in the alphabet?’—Yonth’* Com panion. A Train Problem. It is seldom indeed that the following question is answered correctly offhand: A train starts daily from San Fran cisco to New York and one daily from New York to San Francisco, the jonrney lasting fire days. How many trains will n traveler meet in journeying from New York to San Francisco? About ninety-nine persons out of n hundred wonld say five trains, as a mat ter of course. The fact is overlooked that everyday dnring the jonrney a fresh train is stoning from the other end, while there are five trains on the way to begin with. Consequently the traveler will meet not fire trains but ten.—New York Tribune. Crefily Forrijjner*. All excursionists agree as to the avid ity with which those ••furriners" seize on to gissl, hard, honest American gold. A Springfield man was bargaining for a parrot in a Havana bird store. Thepric. was set at seventeen dollars, but the dealer shaded it down, a few dollars at a time. Finally the American took ont n United States five dollar gold piece, remarking that he wonld give so much and no more. The dealer clutched the coin, and passed over the parrot, cage .-uni all, before the gay bird could wink. —Springfield (Mass.) Homestead. utilized for power. In any event the Breyfogle mystery seem* to have been solved, and perhaps this fact will give another stimnlnsto the march for the Gnnsight and the Peg- leg mines.—San Francisco Letter.

At a meeting of the Royal Botanical society tlfe secretary brought to the no tice of members a portion of a large pop lar lately blown down in the gardens, showing a network of roots running al most round the trunk, between the bark and wood, at some distance from the ground. The plant had apparently de rived its nourishment not from the soil, but from the decaying portions of itself. -Pan Mall Budget.' Health is Wealth! iweine ............ . Fits*.
