THE GOLDEN HAND. The gold is thero, that's certain, and I'm determined to make a trial for it." 'Yon 're counting too much on the word of an Indian. Old Zapetl is a noted liar like all these Spanish speaking aborigines." 'Ah, Jack. Yon do him injustice. He's a deeper liar than yon gave him credit for. Don't you remember that he told usfjf the legend in his tribe that there was a treasure hidden by the an cient keeper of the mint on the first news of the coming of the Spaniards to Central America? Oh, yes. Yon re member that of course. But don't yon remember that he afterward trotted out that ridiculous yarn about the mysteri ous golden hand that guarded the hid ing place and struck down the venture some seeker for the wealth? It's ridicu lous to brieve that the ancients had enough mechanical knowledge to con trive a machine that could prevent one from getting at the gold. Ten to one its out of order anyway. Old Zapetl simply invented the wives' tale of the golden hand because he didn't want to go on the trip that might mean death or pri vation. I'm resolved to eo if I have to start without you. " This was a long speech for my oW comrade, Tom French. We were in the interior of Central America when the foregoing conversation took place. It was the end of many a long debate we bad had on the subject of a search for a treasure. From love of adventure I had left a comfortable home in the states. Tom French and I bad met as rustlers on the cattle ranch in Montana and we became firm friends. When the dearth struck the cattle ranch business, we took a herd across the country south of Texas, where they could feed on the deep alfalfa. Then we drifted into Mex ico and into the employ of a railroad company in the capacity of surveyors. For want of capital the company sus pended operations, and Tom and I found ourselves stranded in the City of Mex ico. We bad saved some money, and when there came a prosposition to join 'some pioneers who thought they. saw a fortune in building up a coffee planta tion in the unexplored lands far to the south in the state of Chiapas we accept ed the offer. Life was pleasant in Mexico, though, and I would have willingly remained, but Tom was eager, as always, to grasp the first opportunity that seemed to pre sent itself for new adventures. Tom had but one object in life to make a for' tune quickly. .Poor fellow, be bad a heavy heart most of the time. He was in love, in love with a heartless coquette, so far as I could learn, and had been re jected She could never have been worthy of him, yet he blindly believed that the girl would marry him if be could lay a fortune at her feet As I remember bis buoyancy and courage in the face of ob stacles that would have discouraged oth ers my sympathy brings tears to my eyes ; but this is anticipating my story. To reach the highlands from the east ern coast it had required two weeks hard toiling up the hills, cut by clefts and gullies and traversed by mountain streams. We bad cleared away a tract and set out coffee plants, with the aid of the good natured, lazy Indians, and Tom revived again the legend of the treasure farther up in the mountain fast ness as he had heard it from one and an other of the Indians in their soft accents in broken Spanish and Indian. The leg end was briefly that deep in the center of a crater of a worn out volcano the ancient Indians of that country had ex cavated a vault where tbey bad piled up countless bars of virgin gold. There was above this planted a bowlder, the only indication of the hiding place. The pe culiarity of the crater was that it was four square, half a mile each way, and from the summit to the floor a distance of 500 feet To reach the floor there was a hidden path, and this was "guarded by a mvstenous golden band. Tradition, the Indians said, made it possible to lo cate the mountain in only one way. That was by climbing the peaks in the barren region far above us to the south eastward until one should be found from whose lojjg crest there were three other peaks forming a straight line. In the central mountain was the treasure. Few burdens could be carried with us in that hish, rare atmosphere, and we were soon on our way with old Zapetl shaking his head, as if in prediction .of disaster. Hardened as we were by our out of door life, the strain was terrible. We lost our way repeatedly and found ourselves confronted by vast crevices in nnr uathwav ud the mountain- side. Wide detours, costing ub half a day and sometimes a day of valuable time, were Tjerforce made, only to find ourselves at the top of a precipice that barred our progress. We had with infinite trouble climbed two lofty mountains only to find ourselves at the summit out of rnnc-A of the mountain tops, as demand- - it m a ed by the legend, when i nnany reiusea to go farther. It was suicidal. Half our nrmria.nns and water were gone. But Tom nleaded for one more chance. ' von see that long range?" he cried. ltd in one ox uiuou. o xuuav .w more attempt. " In mistaken pity fci him 1 vieldarL reached the summit, behold! Them wprn three mountain peaks in a row. Tom sprang forward and after an other struggle we were at tne top oi ine oontml mnnntain. As we aonroached the top it could be seen that there had been volcanic action in ages past. .a- nnr.i 'n nirnn tPRrf, rollintz in every direc tion, nn thfl look out for some superna tural phenomenon. Suddenly bursting tiimnoli rlennn frinTOof bushes W6 f OUnd ourselves on the very edge of a vast crater. As with common impulse we lmt-nri rn r.hn center and there was an immense bowlder. "At last," cried Tom, "at last !" Then he ran his eye along the verge, scanning it root ny foot The patn, ne almost Ecreameu, w,a ha atnmhlAd alone at a naoe that, exhausted as we were, we could scarce ly maintain. "Take care, Tom, l man ui ts uiunkte. thoneh I was nearly as wild as he. But Tom apparently heard nothing. He had eyes and ears only for the one goaL - Tha nntVi nlnnir fhft side of the PTeoi- pice, we could see, led upward from the wide floor of the arena far below us, but the top was concealed from ! our intent gaze by a dense mass or snrurjDery. imnnd r.h nirtafl of the crater we half stumbled, half ran. . When we reached the spot where we thought it possible to Strike upon the opening, we maae aasnes here and there into the greenery." After many disappointments aery from Tom told me the path had been found. Za petl by this time was in a state of col lapse through fear and fatigue. Again I warned Tom to exeroise caution, but he pinnged ahead, and I followed as slowly as I could. Tho path downward was not more than a foot in width, and 1 it re quired all my strength and dexterity to keep my footing. Suddenly on rounding a sharp angle m the face of the preci pice I was confronted by a flat rock five minutes' climb farther down. It seemed to be set in the face of the crater and to jut out, cutting off farther progress in that direction. The rock was of a pe culiar reddish yellow color and, on look ing more intently, it seemed to take upon itself the shape of a monstrous hand. It flashed over me all at once this was the golden hand of the Indian's legend. I called to Tom, but he was fax below me. "Tom, the rock!" I cried hoarsely, and my own voice sounded strangely in my ears. But Tom had al ready reached it. Suddenly a scream of anguish I shall never forget rose in that awful stillness, and in another instant I saw that ponderous hand of golden stone sink lower, still lower. Another scream, wilder than before, and Tom's form could be seen "striving vainly to clutch with his hands the smooth surface as it sank downward with increasing rapid ity. I shut my eyes and listened. The sight was too awful to bear. When I opened them, the rock that had turned on a pivot with poor Tom's weight was upright and was moving back to its original place. Of that frightful fall in to the crater I never dared to think. Old Zapetl and I had weary days of toil in our return to the plantation, and my life was nearly forfeited by a fever in which I could hear Tom's last despairing shriek and see him sliding to his awful death. Brooklyn Eagle. MORMON SOCIAL CONDITIONS. Advantages of Town Life Blended With tho Charms of Rural Existence. Social changes of a marked char acter will bo wrought by the occu pation of tho arid region. In thia piattor also Mormon experience- is luminous. Brigham Young sought to found his prosperity not only on Industrial ethics, but also upon the happiness of the people. He would not tolerate . idleness, and the walls of cobblestones still standing in the older portions of Salt Lake City were invented that the church might pay for the labor of men who would otherwise have . been temporarily supported by charity. x As a means pf furnishing entertainment various diversions wore planned, including tho Saturday night dance, led by bishops of the wards. The leader's wisdom is almost as clearly exhibited in his social scheme as in his plan of industry. Tho cen tral idea in it was the farm village. A village site, generally a half mile square, is selected in tne midst of a tract of 5,000 or 6,000 acres to be colonized. In Utah thero are many small valleys between the towering mountains, and the village site is generally located near the center of the valley and near the river from which tho water is diverted into ca nals on each side at a sufficient eleva tion to command tho irrigable lands. Tho half a square mile is then laid out into blocks of four acres, with broad avenues between, and the blocks are divided into lots of an acre each. On these acre lots the farmers havo their homes. Here also are their commodious barns. Here they have their poultry and swine, while considerable space is devoted to a market garden. Tho farmer then has his farm on tho outlying lands, which aro divided into lots ranging! from two acres up to 20 acres. From the public park in the center to tho farthest outlying farm is only 2 miles. Most farmers traverse a much shorter distance to reach the farm from their homes. On tho other hand, tho women and children enjoy tho important advantage of having near neighbors, while tho church, schoolhouso, stores and post- office aro near at hand. Under this system tho advantages of town life are blenaea to a very consiaeraDio degree with tho charms of rural ex istence. It is a system full of delight ful possibilities. Tho Mormons have realized its substantial advantages in neighborhood association, but their model will be much improved upon by many colonies of moro re cent establishment Farm hfo under the old conditions has involved iso lation, The hunger for human sym pathy and company has driven thou sands from tho country to cities al ready overcrowded. This factor is responsible for many a social trag edy, as well as for the problems which have arisen in congested city populations. There is no reason why farm vil lages patterned after those of Utah should not have a social life and an outward beauty quite as pleasing as, for instance, tho suburbs of Boston. Thero the architecture seems almost uniformly pleasing. Attractive lawns, with trees, vines and flowers, aro everywhere. People of small means will be able to surround them selves with similar advantages m the farm villages of the arid region while realizing all the benefits of in dependence and equality inseparable from the industrial scheme of irriga tion. William E. Smythe in Cen tury. The Flying Squirrel Does Not Fly. Of course tho flyins squirrel has nn winsrs. and he does not really rise and fly, but good Mother Nature has kindly given him a wide fringe of akin rrmnirisr nearly all the way around his body, which forms a very perfect parachute. Wnen ne leaps frnm his tree ton into the air and spreads himself, his parachute and his broad, flat tail enable mm to fln.it down easily and gracefully, in a slanting direction, until he alights low down on the trunk ot a tree per- haiis B0 or even . 100 feet distant Then he clambers nimbly up to its top, chooses his direction, ana launches forth again, quite possibly to the samo tree from which he started. His flight is simply a sail ing downward at an angle of about 4ft dasrrees. with a graceful sweep upward at the last, to enable him to alight easily. W. T. uornaoay in St Nicholas. A Curious Verdict.

J'.--': There is one variety of the whist fiend I do not like.:; It is the man who sets himself up as an authority on that noble and much : abused game. All one has to do in order to be a self made authority on whist is to bo able to repeat the formula, "ace, king, queen, jack, " the max im, "Never trump your partner's aco," and to have once seen a copy of Hoyle. And one possessing these data and a strong pair of lungs oan shine as an authority and reformer at the various neighborly whist parties where the neighbors meet informal ly to have a good time; where whist is menrily discussed and you're sup--posed to play just to pass away the evening; where the women gather together to enjoy the game and com pare household notes ; where the men meet to forget their cares, chat with the ladies and enjoy themselves, j In such places tho whist authority comes like a wet blanket over the joy of the evening. He has been in vited in to keep the game on. Poor, misguided company. Before the evening is over he has nearly broken up the party by merely airing the valuable knowledge he possesses on the subject of whist He calls the ladies down on their method of playing, rebukes the men because they do not know as much as he, and before the evening is over gets himself thoroughly disliked. . But he does not care. He holds forth during refreshment time on tho duties of playing whist properly, brings up personal reminiscences of the evoning, calling the attention of the whole company to the fact that little Mrs. Brown doesn't know a heart from a spade. Mrs. Brown blushes, and Brown gets so mad he threatens to leave. But the hostess prevails on him to stay, and after the refreshments the game goes on. But tho interest flags, and all of the company, except the authority, play m a sulky, half hearted man ner. But tho authority doesn't care. Ho is having a splendid time, and he holds forth on correct playing and calls down every one who throws a card. He is the show of the evening, but he is not popular. The women hate him for showing up their mistakes, and the men de spise him for being a cad. He is shunned. His invitations grow fewer and fewer. People do not dare in vite him. He wonders why he is not invited out to play whist any more when he tried so hard to bring about a correct mode of playing. He wanders about from one club to another, but ends in being dropped by all. Wearily and listlessly he spends his evenings, his wife even refusing to play with him. Poor, misguided man, like many another reformer, you havo struck 12. You have thrown a pall over the innocent joys of your neighborhood. You have gotten yourself disliked for so doing. Now you can either stay at home. nursing your knowledge, or else throw it away, get a new birth and come humbly and repentantly and as the rest of us for a good time only into our whist parties. Wo will take you back, and you can play with us once more if you 11 only drop "what sou know about whist " Pittsfieid (Mass.) Sun. A Happy Hit. Many stories are told of the happy faculty of saying a word in season possessed by Dr. Hall, an old clergy man of Princeton, N. J., years ago. At ono time a difficulty had arisen in the Presbyterian church at Cran berry. Tho presbytery was convened to hear and adjust the matter. They met at Cranberry, and the discussion became so very hot that a good deal of unpleasant feeling was discerni- blo in tho tones and faces of those who were carrying on the argu ments. Just at the most critical point old Dr. Hall rose to pour bil upon the troubled waters, as was his invariable custom. "Mr. Moderator," said he in his gentle voice, and with no suspicion of a smilo on his fine face, Mr. Moderator, I rise to offer a resolu tion, which is that a little sugar be put into this cranberry tart" The effect was instanteous; the laugh came at just the right ma ment, and the bitterness that had begun to gain ground was checked then and there. Youth's Compan ion. Their Difference. . "The most telling testimony as to the difference between the French and the English nature that I ever witnessed,' said a woman, "was in Dresden. We were dining with an American woman in honor, of her daughter's just .an nounced engagement, and among the guests were a Frenchman and an Eng lishman. When the fruit was served, the Frenchman took some, bnt didn't ,eo much as' taste it. The Englishman, it so happened, did the same. The hostess apparently did not notice this, however, and partaking heartily of the fruit her self she presently observed, with true American frankness, 'How delicious those grapes are, don't you think so, monsieur?' The untouched fruit was aa plain as daylight on the Frenchman' plate, but without a quiver he replied courteously. "Truly, madam, they ara the most delioious I have ever tasted. The hostess then turned to John Bui and said, 'Don't you agree with us. 'No, ' growled the Briton, 'I don't never eat the stuff.' "New York Sun, Before He Went to Boston. A couple of naive remarks may be worth repeating : A guest at one of our big hotels while going down in the elevator remarked to the colored elevator man, "I want to go to the wharf where the tea was thrown overboard.". "Well," replied the man, looking mystified, "you'd better inquire at the office. I reckon that was before came here. I've only been in Boston about a year!" The other remark was made by an Irishman in the Museum of Fine Arts. He was looking at the Morse collection and Baid to his companion : "Mike, will ye Ink at all them pots from Japan.
