Makes a rainbow. You kinder take to this sort o' thing, don't you, Miss Pembrook ?" ' "Oh, yes, indeed. I am a worshiper at the shrine of nature. One glimpse of such scenery as this is to me 'worth a journey across the continent," and the truth of Miss Pembroke's assertion was reflected in her flushed cheeks and sparkling eyes. - They were on horseback, and had halted on a high plateau where the sun rise and this choice hit of mountain scenery had burst simultaneously upon their view. To look at tBeae two riders one could not avoid the impression that both were somewhat out of place in each other's society. One was a beautiful young lady, fresh from the heart ol ultra-civili-. zation,withan unmistakable air of culture and high breeding; the other was a hardy miner, whose knowledge of the world was confined to the wild, mountainous gold regions of California and Nevada, One had n slight, willowy form, dis played to good advantage in a neat-fitting habit of some rich material; the other revealed a tall, athletic figure, clad in garments that were coarse and unpre tentious, but by no means unbecoming. They had met by the merest chance. A party of tourists from some Eastern city had stopped for a month at the lit tle town of Blazeaway, and Miss Pem broke and her parents were Hhe party. Blazeaway, one year ago, had been noth ing more than a mining camp, but it bad grown like a mushroom in the night, as it were, and had become so popular with travelers and pleasure-seekers that a passable hotel was now one of its most important institutions. In its im mediate vicinity was some of the grand est scenery to be found in the whole range of the Sierra Nevadas, and this with its delightful climate and many ad vantages of location was the secret of its attractiveness. It so happened that Joe Langdon, the miner, became the favorite guide of this particular party on their sight-seeing ex peditions, during their sojourn at Blazea way. He was a good-looking, big hearted, intelligent fellow, with a cer tain rough eloquence in his speech and manner, and a peculiarly graphic style of relating the legends and anecdotes connected-with the points of interest that came under their observation. ' Strange to say, the proud Miss Pem broke became deeply interested in this Joe Langdon. She found him an enter taining companion, with views and ideas similar to her own, if they had only been cultivated, and she was amused rather ' than shocked by his simple, un polished language. He liked poetry, and she read to him sometimes by the hour, while he listened with beaming eyes and bated breath. And while she marveled that a man so utterly without culture and learning could be fond of such things, it probably never occurred to hor that it might not be so much the poetry as the musical rhythm of her own sweet voice that engaged his rapt attention. At any rate, they were good friends, and when the entiie male portion of the excursion party w;nt off for a two weeks hunt up the Sa-sramenta river, Miss Pembroke was left with little else to amuse herself with beside this new ad mirer of hers. It was certainly a great comfort to her to have him always near her, as guide and protector, when she went beyond the limits of the little town. They had xisan early this morning on purpose to nee I h sunrise. Langdon saving expat Hated on the beauty of the scene as viewed f;.om a certain point on the mountain, Miss Pembroke went into raptures over it. "It is the most beautiful sight I ever witnessed !" she exclaimed, again and again. "How good of you to propose this morning ride, Mr. Langdon. You are always thinking of something new for ray enjoyment. I must induce the rest of the party to see this before we leave here. By the way," she added, "the gentlemen are expected to return from their hunt to-morrow, and I pre sume they will propose an eaily ' depar ture for some other point. I am so con- ' " cerned about Charley that I shall be Clad" Charley who?' asked Joe Langdon, almost sharply. "Why, Charley Brantley. He is one of our own party, "you know. You must have seen him." . "You mean the handsome feller with the long moustache that kept so close to you the day we rode over to the mine 1" A contio- blush reddened the lady's nheek. "Yes, -'she replied; "that was Charley Brantley." Langdon saw the blush, and moved uneasily in the saddle. "Do you love him, Miss Pembroke?" RtrH tsa - .

With heightening color she replied . "Yes, Mr. Langdon; Idon'tniadleli- Joe started, and looked positively guilty. Had she read the thought that flashed lightning-like through his mindf But the girl did not see did not know, With eyes still averted she" continued: - "Charley has such .a temper, and he sometimes loses control of it. The day he went away he caught a man in the act of stealing his silver-mounted rifle, which be valued so highly, and without pausing to consider the consequences he struck the fellow across the face with his riding-whip. I have since heard that the man has since sworn vengeance on him, and declared he would kill him at the first opportunity. The thought is so terrible that I cannot drive it from my mind, and I fairly dread Charley's return. Perhaps you could contrite to save him, Mr. Langdon " "Eh? I I don't did you speak to me, Miss Pembroke?" She looked at him now, with an ex pression of surprise. She saw how deathly pale he was, and with a woman's readiness to jump at conclusions she ex Claimed: "You believe it, too. You think Charley is in peril! I know you do!" "Wait a minute, Miss Pembroke," said the miner, making a mighty effort to recover composure, and partially suc ceeding. "You say some feller hat took an oath he'd kill your your Chwrley Brantley. Who is the feller, an' what's his name?" "The people here call him 'Whisky Tom.' He is a low, diasipated half- breed. Of course vou know him." - "Whisky Tom! I know km yr a drunken scamp and vagaboad," said Joe, with emphasis. "He oughter been hung long 'ago. Why, bless your heart, whisky Tom 'ud murder his mother for a glass o' whisky. When he says he'll kill a feller you needn't flatter perself that he won't try his blamedest to do it, jest as soon as he can make a sneak on the feller. All I'm s' prised at is that he tried to steal a rifle onless he wanted to sell it for money to buy liquor with. He never uses firearms nohow couldn't hire him to have anything to do with 'em. He does all his shootin' with a manlty, toigrnt to realize jour own audacity I" cried Brantley, his teaser getting the better of him. ' "You're a scoundrel, sir a dog " "Stopl" If Joe Langdon's face was E ale before, it was ghastly now. "Stop!" e repeated, and his voioe was terrible from it very calmness. "There ain't but on man on earth that can call me sech names as that, an' live an you're that man. But you musn't do it ag'in, sir by the Eternal you musn't do it ag'n, it's only her love for you that saves you now." ! "You threaten me, do you?" cried Brantley, in a white heat of passion. "You threaten me " Whatever was in his mind to say, it rmind nnuM fnr at that instant Jntt Langdon sprang upon him with the quickness of thought, and bore him heavily to the ground. The attack was so sidden and unex pected that Brantley was not prepared for it, but with a furious curse he strug gled to his feet and drew his revolver. He was about to fire when he heard a woman's scream,' a man's shout, and a strong hand seized his arm and held it. "Drop that pistol I" cried a stern vo;ce. "You wouldn't shoot a man when he's down!" What had happened? What did it mean? Was that Joe Lingdon lying on the ground with an arrow quivering in his side? Was that Laura' Pembroke kneeling beside the prostrate miner? Was this Mr. Pembroke who had grasped his arm and wrenched the pistol from his hand! Charley Brantley realized these things gradually, like a man waking from a nightmare. "You told me to save him, Miss Pem broke, said Joe, laintly, as the weeping THE WEATHER PROPHETS. uiTa ITim XQYAX, IU TICX AM 9 rr woix. NX ITS AND NOTES FOR TfOHE. girl lifted his head to her lap. "You told me to save him, an I've done it. I see'd that wretch, Whisky Tom, lurkin' behind the bushes yonder, witn his bow drawn and an arrow p'nted at Brantley. I knowed what it meant, an I knowed Tom never missed his aim; so I I jumped onto Brantley an' pushed him out o the way, an took the arrow my- i self. Good-bye; don't cry for me. I'm glad it turned out this way. I hope you'll be happy. Good-bye good-bye " And Joe Langdon was dead. f It was merely an episode; and after a handful of citizens had run the mur derer down and hung him to the nearest tree, after the fashion of Western justice, the event was not long remembered. But there were two who never forgot it Mr. and Mrs. Brantley. Frank StnnUn. bow an' arrow, an' he can knock a wood pecker out o' the top of a Calif orny pine every flip.

I know it would P It would have been bard to tell which was the paler of the two, only for the sun-bronze on the miner's face. It was a trying ordeal through which he was passing, and for a moment it seemed as if he were turning to ice; but the big, unselfish heart melted beneath the pite ous, pleading gaze of .those eyes that had played -such havoc with it during these sunny weeks. Joe Langdon wiped the perspiration from his brow, conscious that he was trembling, knd that she would surely notice his agitation. "If so be," he said, with another great effort to be calm "if so be it should come in my power to do Charley Brant ley a service, I'd do it, of course for your sake! But come, Miss Pembroke," he added, in a more cheerful tone, "you mustn't let yerself think 'o sech things. I guess Mister Brantley ain't in sech dan ger but what he'll take keer of hisself all right. It's time for us to be movin' down the mountain. We'll have a sharp appetite for breakfast after the ride, I reckon; but it won't do for you to carry that white face back to the hotel.- You'll skeer everybody out of a year's growth." Then, after thev had started off at a brisk canter, he said, "What do you say to a race, Miss Pembroke? Let's see which o' these horses can take the rag off the bush in a mile stretch." And away they galloped at a reckless rate of speed, leaving a cloud of dust in their wake. It was the next day after this occurence that Joe Langdon stood leaning against tho trunk of a huge tree, just beyond the limits of Blazeaway, absorbed in thought. He was alone, and he could scarcely have looked more pale and haggard if he had just risen from a long, wasting ill ness. . "I don't know what ails me, onless Pm coin' starin' mad," he muttered to himself. "I didn't think it 'ud strike me all of a heap to know that she loved some other man, but that's jest what it's done blame my skin if it ain't! I'm blowed If I understand myself at all. I'ts the fust time I was ever kerflum mixed by a woman, an' I reckon I reckon it'll be the last." He made a movement as if to wring his hands, but seemed to check the impulse, as if he were ashamed of his weakness. "Joe Langdon, your a blamed fool!" he said, unconsciously speaking aloud. "You've got the brass of a road-agent to go1 fall in' in love with a fine lady like Laura Pembroke. But how can a man help it. She ain't like other fine ladies. She makes a feller forget that he's nothin' but a rough cuss ; an' she couldn't talk any nicer to the President himself than she does to me. I don't know what I've been thinking of all this time. I ain't fit to be mentioned in the same day with her, an' here I am . in love with her. Ican'tbearto think of her going away " ing voice. "If that is the case it is time you were being taught a lesson 1" Joe looked up with a start. Charley Brantley stood before him, tall and handsome, with an angry gleam in his black eyes. The miner felt himself growing weak to think he had committed the crowning folly of betraying his secret to this man. "So you are in love with Laura Pem broke," continued Brantley, with cutting sarcasm. "I have heard of your per sistent attention to her during my ab sence. And you think you can't bear to see her go away from here. That is bad, truly." -Wait a minute, Mr. Brantley," said Joe, his voice husky. "You have heerd what I was foolish enough' to say out loud, an' there's no use in my denyin' it now. I do love Miss Pembroke, but I didn't intend to let her know it, nor you. I know she ain't for me; I know she's to be your wife." . "And knowing that, you have the impudence to tell me that you love her ,you, a low, miserable specimen of hu- ATTonderfal Lunar Eclipse. To convey anything like an adequate idea of the effect of an eclipse of differ ent minds, the writer can hardly do bet ter than describe the eclipse he wit nessed in Egypt in 1883. On the banks of the Nile, about one mile north of the town of Sohaeg, a large concourse of spectators was assembled to witness the forthcoming spectacle. A small party of these spectators were gathered around a number of instruments, doubly protected from the injurious sand-winds by stock ades of rushes and by tents. A space ex tending about three hundred yards, and enclosed on each side by the Nile and the outskirts of a, grove of acacia-trees, scarcely two hundred yards away, was guarded by a body of Egyptian soldiery. Protection was only wanted from incur sions of the curious; but had the natives been less informed of what was to take place, Egyptian soldiery, only a little less cowardly than the fellaheen, would have been small protection against any fan' 1ca outbreak. The river was lined w.;t' steamers, dahabeahs and smaller cpffr, while to the south of the encamp ment, on the sloping bank, were gathered a large concourse of the inhabitants of the neighbor ing villages, squatting on the sand in their peculiar Eastern fashion. Th eclipse began and made some prog ress before the unscientific spectators no ticed that the sun was fast disappearing, but hen they became aware of it they gav vent to their feelings by a low mean ing, the sound increasing in volume as the moon passed on. The alarm now spread to the feathered spectators, who, becoming at last cognizant of the rapidly wan'fcg light, rushed cackling hither amd thither into steamboat or into observa tory, and in search of a place in which to roost. At last a thin stieak only of light-was left ; it disappeared, and there was n sudden change from weak daylight te a dull violet, which threw on the neighboring scenery a weird, ghastly hue. At this moment a sudden shout aroM from the crowd a shout unheeded, scarcely heard, by the astronomers, who suppressed their excitement and endeav ored to make the most of the seventy seconds during which totality was to last. And yet even they were taken off their guard, for alongside the brilliant coroiti was seen a small, but vivid scim-etar-thaped comet a stranger uaex pected and never afterward traced. Lit tle wonder, then, if the regulation for bidding speech was for a moment disre garded. The short seventy seconds were soon over, the last observation made, and while one set of spectators were raising their thanks to Allah, the other had laid aside their calm reserve to join in mutual congratulations.

It was to protect the shipping oi. lake and ocean that the weather bureau was brought into existence by General Al bert J. Meyer ia 1870. From the twenty stations of 1970 have grown 400. The sphere of usefulness of the service has devoloped with the number of sta tions. Beside warning shipping of the approach of storms, farmers and shippers of fruits have been saved thousands of dollars by being notified of coming rain or frost or the approach of a cold wave. It was formerly the custom to mail re ports and predictions from stations to country post offices that could be reached the same day the reports and prediction', were made, and there to display them. The daily newspapers are devoting so much space and attention every day to matters meterological that the rural bul letins were discontinued ia July. Bul letins are now displayed in every com mercial organization s rooms, and are furnished all daily newspapers, while from each signal station signals forecast ing the weather for the succeeding twen ty-four hours are displayed from 7:30 A. M. A square blue spot on a red back ground is a cautionary signal against storm. Around blue spot on a white background bespeaks rain or snow; a square blue spot on a white background means that a cold wave is approaching; a blue crescent on a white background indicates clear or fair weather, and a blue cross on a white background calls fcr local rain or snow. The round red spot on a white background meaos high tem perature, the red crescent lower temper ature, and the red star stationary tem perature. Since General W. B. Hazen took charge of the service on the death of General Meyer in 18S0, reorganization has been goiog forward and the scope of the service has been widened. The Fort Meyer (Va.) school, where the observer are given a six or eight months' training in meteorology and army signaling, has been put on a thorough footing. rtu dents are admitted only after ptsaiog a successful competitive examination. They go out as assistants to observers. Then if they develop capability they are ad- j ronced when opportunity affords. There are three observations made at all signal stations daily and telegraphed to Washington, where the predictions are made up that are promulgated to the entire country. When a severe storm is raging special observations are taken, and the information thus obtained is furnished by telegraph to stations in ad vance of the storm and likely to be visited by it. The regular observations are taken at 7 a. m . 2 p. m., and 11 r. x., seventy fifth meridian time. Half aa hour later they are forwarded. The operators on all the telegraph sections into which the sUttons are grouped sit at their desks. CURIOUS .THINGS IX IltO. Cordoroy jackets for young rule are I what popular.

People living in the neighborhood of new Chinatown witnessed a novel sight yesterday, hen a Chinaman went gal loping along the streets on the backs of a monster bear, which was geM t pretty lively rate. Ol i Bruin waa bridled and saddled in regular fashion, and hi slant eyed rider wore a heavy pair of spurs. The rider and his steed halted in the main street of the Chinese quar ters, and the bear was led through one of th stores back into a little shed. Learning of the curious riding animal, a ChronicU representative went to new Chinatown to see it and the rider. The bear was found to be of the black spe cies, and was a regular Jumbo in size, standing nearly as high ss a cow. In conversation with the owner, it was learned that he had captured hi bear when it was a small cub ; that be carried it to his cabin, cared for it tenderly, and when it grew large enough he trained it to draw a small wagon and to perform numerous tricks. The bear has always been well treated, and runs about aa it pleases; but always returns to its master when called, just as an intelligent dog would. When the bear became strong, the Chinaman began riding him, and never had any trouble. lie now rides him whenever he goes hunting and fish ing, and finds the brute a better com panion than a dog, for he will go into water arid bring out game, or carry to his owner ducks or quails he had killed. The Chinaman lives near the Ten-mile House, on the Humboldt road, and yes terday was his first trip to Chico with his trick bear. Chico (CaU) Chronicle.
