The IXmifireros Effort to bo Tried J Again. j The 'effort discover the Nortli Pule will le abandoned only when this real or iiiaginary point is diseovtref). For two hundred years adventurous men have sacrificed "comfort, health, and life itself in the question of this elu sive ppot, only to ho met with; nisas teand utter failure. And yt t the fpidt of enterprise, the desire, for ex ploriln, are not subdued. The de termination to penetrate this unknown place is as stubborn and persistent as if danger aid privation and death had not attended all former attempts. Nothing ihrevlonss expeditions hold out at! any prospect of success; the sur vivors of these tther journeys are alive to tell the horrowkg tale of the awful desolation o that !e-ert of ice aiid now, . but they cann-jt daiuit the hardy and adventun usnien who still cherish the hone of final saecess. Two expeditions for this 'purpose are now in me miuxt or prvparanous, uuo3ant witii liope contKleivt or sue cess, willing to hazard all risks. One of these will start from Norway in June under the command of i)r. Fridtjof Nanseu, a distinguished Kor weigan explorer. He is preparing fbt an absence of live years. His ship will lie so constructed that wIrmi struck by great masses of ice its-will be foiced out wf the water to the top of the mass. It will be manned by n crew of eight men. and fully equipped for the lonj jour ney, Dr. Nausen will sail throfigh the Strait into the Artie NOcean, aiid then tollow! the current. He beUeves that a current runs from the coast of Siberia into an open polar sea. Hi -rean fortius belief is that after the ill fated Jeanntte wj:s abandoned oa the north liehriikg eaar, near the mouth; of the ri.ver Lena, articles believed toj belong to this ship were picked up on the west cpast of Greenland. Dr. Nan-, serrs-tbeory is that they got into, tins; walls, and by tappuig bun slightly un Siberi.iM current, were carried toward . dcr tiie chin force him tosit up. After the pole, and then down through iaf- nn s Bay to the western shores of Greenland. It will be -remembered that various scientific societies in Eu ropehave (liscoiih;ged 'Dr. !srauen;s theorits, but he will proceed with .his expedition, arid we shall not her of til hi for fire years, if ever.

What lies in that impenetrable be - yond is for the imagitation alotie to de- piqt. It may be only an endless ex- panse of ice and snow, with nothing to 1 , , 1 1 p , repav the tremendous exertion; ot Imd- . ' r- . . . . mg it except the satisfaction ot a urn- versal curiosity. But there has always existed a vision of an open sea an equa- bl climate, vegetation, and it has ever been dreamed that a race, of people might liveln this wonderland. And restless, daring, inquisitive 'humanity will continue its research to the end of time, or until all the mystery is solved. , 1 "" WhcrQ -Gold Comes From. The gold taken from the river bars was mostly in the form of scale re- senibling cucumber seeds aud of vary- I ing size. It was mos.t plentiful on the bd-rock and in a few inches, of soil above it, though sometimes three or four feet of earth would pay to wash. Where the bed-rock was hard the min er cleaned it, for ii shovel full of dirt might contain a few dollars worth in particles. Where the bed-rock was soft slude or slate on edge the miner picked away an inch i r so and washed it, as frequently the scales were found to be driven quite thickly into the cre vices. When the ground' was very rich the rocker was cleansed of gold every hour or two. When work was oyer, around the supper tire the events ojthe day were discussed, earnings compared, reports made, f grizisly bears or deer being seen or killed, of better, diggings of "coarse gold" dis covered. This was the hour for specu lations as to origin of gold in the riv ers, ami a strong opinion was enter tained by many who were not well read that immense masses of the pre cious metal would some day be brought to light in the snow-capped peaks tow ering to the east. "Coarse gold" was a charm to the ear of the ordinary miner. His claim might bo paying him au ounce a day in fine gold, but he was always interested in some re ported diggings far away where- the product w..s iu lumps, and not iuf re- quently he left a pood mine to seek some rich El Do-rado.' Tim character istic and besetting fault of the early miner wars unrest. He was foreYer s-ekinp better fortune. Yet it was this passion for prospecting that resul ted in the discovery of gold in an in credible short time frofn the southern end of 8 in Joaquin Valley to the northern limit of the Ute. Topros peef wjis to find a spot that looked favorable and make an examination of it. The miner would take a pan of earth, shake and gyrate it under water, raising and lipping it frequently to run the dirt and water off, then plunge it again, and so continue until a small residuum of black sand and gold re mained. A spfck - of gold was the "color," several specks were "several colors' and the number and size de termined the judgement of the miner whether he should go to work or move on. I have seen ounces taken in this way in a single day, but in a single pan, but in the earlier days we counted a "bit to the pan, twelve and a half j cents, a fair prospect. Century Touching Your Dog. The easiest trick to teach a dog is jumping. First put the learner in to a corner, and make a bar of a stick a cane, will answer the purpose so that he can not get out of the corner except by jumping over it. Do this until he jumps over the stick without hesitation, when you 'may gradually raise the height of the bar any required distance from the floor. After the trick has b'eii learned in tho corner, it may be tried in the. center, of the room. L iter on vou mav make a boon , of your arms and teach your pupil to ' jump through it, and after a while a ; real hoop. Possibly with tissue paper . j - - - - i ! may be substituted with good result. I Another easy trick is sitting up. As : in the first lin k, begin in a corner, ; Place the pupil ia a sitting position, so that his back finds support against the some practice he can do this without ; much 'effort. Now accustom him to sit -up without any back supiport. . ' is harder to makea dog stand ei'ect than to do either of the tv.o treks just described.- As before it, should begin in the corner.

Lr....un utickaw, vritten for The Watcaiaa n. The Dignity of Labor. By Prof. Owen II. Bishop. People used to say it, even if they did not think it, that there was dignity in labor, but we have long ago outlived even the idea of such a thing. Now what do we mean by the dignity of any calling? We mean that the, pursuit of it calls forth the respect of mankind and that it has an ennobling effect upon ourselves and those around us. Well then, you see at once that to speak of labor being dignified nowa days isclfieVgreatest piece of nonseiisp, even in poetry ! In the early age of the world, when the decree Ry tb sweat of thy brow shalt thou eat bread all the days of thy life" held good everyone was forced to work or starve, for without helps to labor in the shape of machinery it was as mnch as could be done by all working to supply each with sufficient food, clothes and shel ter, hi those times, when all had to tvork, they considered it dignified to labor; but now in the nineteenth cen tury, when -all try to shirk, to labor is thought dishonorable. It is exactly this endeavor, by nearly everyone in our time, to shirk, which has dishonor ed labor, and trampled the sons of toil into the very earth. There is a -certain amount of work, my friends, which must be done to carry the world on, and what a coward ! what a despi cabl e one is he who willingly and wil fully casts his share of the burdn up on the shoulders of his brother! It i no wonder that Christianity, like the dignity of labor, is simply a flowery word, nothing more. No wonder at all, indeed, when man, degraded man, disdains God, who made the world. "Six days shalt thou labor" because God labored, and this is why humanity tried, in by-gone days, to ennoble la bor and the laborer, and succeeded up to the time of the setting up of the gods Aurum and Argentum (irold and silver). All honor, we say, to those who toil and let us ity them that are idle and useless. Do not let us fenvy them, and then, perhaps the time may come when they will be ashamed to be urones in me unman iiive. Man is sur-dy gone astray, and nothing but education can rescue him. Let a man hi ever such a worth 'ess fellow, if he only dons a fine coat our first impulse is to respect him while the toiler, how- o'fl" Si U' 1 1 1 t'li I Mild IVfl.t.llV if id-id in workiu.r ntibv. usuallv meets ivith difference and calls forth notions of disdain.

He W:is a great speculator, having monev. nierve and original ideas. VVheii tiie gjeneral impression was that wheat was gingdown, "Hutch" bought wheat ahd forced it up. W hen all indications seemed to point to an advance in wheat, "Ilutcir'sold wheat and kept it dowji. VV heat speculation is carried on in thin way. "Hutch" believes that it is go iipg up. another speculator that is iago irtgdmvn. "Hutch" offers $1.00 for wjheat to be delived to him thirty days days hener. When this contract nkade he turns to another speculator and offers $1.01, $1.02, etc., gradually pi-.sh-itig the price up for future, delivery. Then he sends his agents or broker out t buy all the wheat they can ge. When tire thirty days' time is up,- I ho nien who have agreed to deliver Uta wheat cannot get hold of it, it is all controlled by the u01d Hutch' Wheat ia high and the men who have agreed to deliver it are forced to settle, pnying him the difference between the market pjiee and the price they had agreed to pay for it thirty days before. A Ijjhttchison was shrewd and boid, an 1 ill this way he niade a great deal of naoney. He Jiad not confined his deal ings to grain but bought .and sold nlieatr and other products.

To say that he was selling wheat was sufiicieiit to put tho prices down or that he was iiuy ihg it to put it up.
