Tliu camels now running wild in Ari zona arc tlie descendants of a small herd originally imported for use in the state of Nevada." says the San Fran cisco Chronicle. In the early days of mining on the Conrst'oek, long before there were any railroads in the lircat J'.asiu region. It was thought that camels might be profitably used about the mines, particularly In packing across tht surrounding deserts, and twelve "ships of the desert" were ac cordingly purchased and brought to Virginia City. They were wanted for use in packing; salt from the Hot Spring salt marsh to the Comstock re duction works. This salt depoit lies lur out in a desert region, ami to reach It many w aterless stretches of sand and alkali had to be traverse,!. The camels were able to cross all the deserts in perfect comfort, carrvinir heavy li-ads of salt and iindinfr means of subsistence in the prickly and bitter plants and shrulis everywhere to be found in abundance. In short, the animals did ns irood work here in our deserts as they are able to do in any country in the world, but they were too slow. The camel mav be fast enough for an Arab, but he is too slow for an American. When the occupation of the camels as packers of salt was srone thev were i sold to som Mexicans, who used theiu for a time in packing wood down out of You want an Orjcan. Of course You want the BUST.

They soon killed three of the wretched bcastn and wauld have killeU the remainder had not a Frenchman, who owned a big ranch on the Carson river below Day ton, taken pity on the poor, abused creatures and bought the whole of them. This Frenchman had been in Algeria with the French colonv, where had developed an affection for the camel probably owed the animal a debt of gratitude fur having jivcd his life on some occasion, lie hud no use for the beasts therefore turned them out to roam the desert plains at will. The animals left to shift for tin-in-Ives, soon waxed fat, mid Increased nd multiplied. In a few years from nine the herd had increased to thirty bix, old aud young. The Frenchman, then sold the whole lot to lie tnken ! down to Arizona to be used in packing ore down off a big mountain range. Jt wnh said there w;isa good smooth trail, but tN- animals found all the rocks and Soon Iteeame footsore and useless, when all were turned adritt to shift for them belvcs. They have regained the in stincts of the original wild state of their species and are very wary and swift. They fly into waterless wastes impenetrable to man w hen approached. Some of the old animals, however, oc casionally aptear in the vicinity of the settlements. Uf late it is reported that the cattlemen have been shrmtiug them for some reason, perhaps because they frighten aud stampede their horses. No one knows how many camnls are now running at large in the wilds of the tiila country, but there must be a great number. One is occasionally caught. Four years ago one was cap tured near to tula If end that measured over nine feet in height. It appeared to be a stray from one of the herds iu that region. With the herd of camels when it was owm-d by the Frenchman on the t ar son river wes a huge old bull camel known as Hd Heenan." because of his lighting proclivities, lie was a giant, and the patriarch of the herd. He had hair on parts of his body that was a foot or eighteen inches in lengh. The animals ranged down the valley of the Carson nearly to old Fort t'hurchill. At Sam Auckland's ranch, a mile above the fort, several Mexican vatjueros were employed. These men hail seen the big camel, and looked with envious eyes upon the long, silken hair that hung from the huge frame. They thought this hair might be spun into ttcautiful riatas, bridle reins and orna- i inents for bridles. One fine Sunday morning in spring two of the Mexicans Antonio and tre douio equipped themselves with a lasso aud a pair of sheep shears and set out to catch and shear Old lleeuan. (e dotiio found the big animal ca-sy of ap proach. The old fellow stood stock stilL He was dreamily chewing his cud with hatf-cloMd eyes. The lavso swishfd through the air. and in a mo n lent was about the big animal's neck. Then, as the patriarch felt the rope tighten about his throat, the fun be- Alongside the giant beast the Mexi can looked a mere pigmy. When old Heenan realized that the small two- legged creature was actually trying to gather him in his little eyes turned green with rage. Hissing like a red hot locomotive he charged (tedonio. The little Mexican held to the rope for lime, hoping to choke the camel down, but found the animal apparent ly able to subsist as long without 'wind as without water. Itesides. Heenan made for him so rapiiliy that lie could get no pull on the old fellow. At last tietlonio was so hard pressed that he was obliged to drop the lasso and take to his heels. Ity this time Old Heenan was wild with rage. The Mexican tried todde, and shouted: Gedonio! Uedonlol mio amigo!" G.'doci heard and shouted lustily for Antonio to mine to his relief, lie in strutted Antonio to tie the two mus tangs fast together and leave them, then slip quietly down the bank, get hold of the trailing end of the lasso and tie it to a tree. All went well until Antonio wat alwut to pass the end of the lasso round the tree. It would not reach by a foot or two, and he hauled upon it. Instantly Heenan wheeled about and went for Antonio open-mouthed. L'F the bank went Antonio, with the bi camel close at his heels. He tried t; reach the horses to mount and ride off, but at sight of the camel the mustangs gave a snort of terror and dashed away up the river. Heenan's attention being attracted to the horses he gave chase to them, much to the relief of Antonio, who had plunged head first into a big bunch of sagebrush to conceal himself from the enemy, though his hiding was merely that of the istr:ch- Presently the two men got together and went in search of their horses. Half a mde up the river they found both animals drowned in a deep hole, with old Heenan upon the bank look ing down at them. It was only after infinite trouble that the two Mexicans were able to recover their saddles and bridles. As they sneakt'd home to Itucklaml's that evening they were sadder and wiser men. They "went for wool and came hack shorn" even their shears were lost. The pair told all manner of lies to account for the drowning of their horses but as it happened the French man who owned the camels had cliuntted a tree to watch the Mexican, not knowing what they were after, and bad been an amused w itness of the whole alTair. When the true story reached the ranch there were a thou sand jokes among the men about the ; fun to be had in "shearing the bull camel in the rutting season." When the camels were first taken down to Arizona to be useu m packing ore one of them was shot and killed by a Herman miner. The man who did the deed suffered about as much dis tress of mind as did the sailor who killed the albatross. The Oerman was working for a mining company at a place about three miles from where were located the men who were trying to use the "ships of the desert" as prairie schooners in carrvmg ore I down out of the mountains. The m:in did not know there was such an animal on the American continent probably in all his life had never seen a camel. Oae Sunday Hans came tearing into camp about ten times as wild-eyed as usual. ltys,' cried he, "I shoot a helick." A what? aske.l one of the men. "A hel-ack helik," cried Hans. "Mine Oott, the biggest helak in nil Arizona. "He means he has shot a monster elk." said someone. "Vas, a lieik," said Hans. "So wohr inir tltt helfe, es ist de biggest in de mountains." 'I!ig horns like this?" queried an old miner, draw ing his neck down into his chest and spreading his arms abroad. "No horn at all," said Hans. "She was a frau helak: she wos de grand imiddcr of all ! helick." As Hans w.is aUe to show blood on his knife, gun and hands, the men eon eluded he had at hst really kilted a Itea-t of K,.me kind.

Hans insisted upon all hands taking gmis.as he said he had sen a large hen! of the elk just across a little valley from where he had downed his victim. As the party rode along with him to find his game, Hans honestly owned that he I. ad never before seen an elk. He had heard so much aUut the elk, how ever, that he thought he knew the ani mal. I're.-ently Han put spurs to his mu--tuug aud proudly dashed to the spot w here lay the dead came). Dismount ing, he threw his beloved jager' acr-tss his game, then as the others came tip laid a linger on his lips. He pointed in the direction of some low j hills. He wanted no noise made. He f j was in jut ttu risrht humor to creep over i in inns ami slaughter the whole herd. In his anxiety to make sure of his victim, Hans had nearly sawed the head off the poor camel with his knife. When his companions came up they w ere for some moments at a loss as to what kind of a huge creature Hans had slain. Presently one of them. Tom Alchorn. the well-known Comstock millw right (now dead), cried out: P.y the holy poker, it's a camel. He has killed one of the camels that belong over at the otlier camp. Here is a nice mess. Tve no dmiht the animal i worth all of one thousand dollars." "Wort a tousand dollar?" cried Hans. "Oott in lliii'inci: If we could kill dem all it is more as twenty tousand dollar in our pocket." !t was long before Hans could Ik made to understand that the "InmiI was on the other fMt;" that the owners of the camel would demand one thousand dollars for it Ach. der teufel'" cried Hans with rueful face.

When they got back to the mine and told of Hans latest exploit with his old "jager," the w hole camp was in a roar.

For about a week Hans endured the gibes and jeers of the camp, then he came up missing ami his old "jager" with him. The men had made the camp too hot for him. HOME HINTS AND HELPS.

The handle is of wood. like the ordinary hoe handle, but the ferule at the business end is square and of steel, tempered hard, with a threaded hole running through tlio solid end (mine was three inches solid) for a threaded steel screw bolt The hoe blades hare a round hole for the inser tion of the screw bolt and a plate of steel with a square hole riveted tirmly to the blade. The square end of the ferule on the handle fits smipl.v into the square hole iu the plate, holding the hoe blade in a fixed position and preventing any stress on the screw bolt tending to unscrew it. The ad vantage of this hoe is the saving of storage room, for here you have as many diiTerent shaped hoe blades as your fancy or necessity may dictate, and only one handle, though it were better to have two made in caie of wishing to use more than one blade at RANDOM NOTES.

It is proposed that postage stamps be numbered so that when stolen from post ofliees the rogues may be traced.

Don't Blame the Cook If a baking powder is not uniform in strength, so' that the same quantity will always do the same work, no one tafl know how to use it, and uni formly good, light food cannot be produced with it All baking powders except Royal, because improperly compounded and made from inferior materials, lose their strength quickly when the can is opened for use. At subsequent bakings there will be noticed a falling off in strength. The food is heavy, and the flour, eggs and butter wasted." . It is always the case that the consumer suffers in pocket, if not in health, by accepting any sub stitute for the Royal Baking Powder. The Royal is the embodiment of all the excellence that it is possible to attain in an absolutely pure powder. It is always strictly reliable. It is not only more economical because of its greater strength, but will retain its full leavening power, which no other powder will, until used, and make more wholesome food.

In some sections the prevailing wind will in time overcome this inclination. It is advisable also to whitewash the trunks, or even to protect them per manently by tyinj thin strips of wood about them; for this purpose lath ma be used, but they should be tied oil once or twiee each year with fresh tv ing material. The whitewash is bene ficial also in killing moss and prevent ing the attacks of insects.
