The decision made yesterday by the Secre-
tary of the Interior that reservation in favor
of royalty claimed by Mr.. Sutro shall be made
in the patent issued to the Occidental Mining
Company, establishes that the section of the
act of Congress which provides for the pay
ment of royalty to the owner of the Sutro
tunnel Is not confined In its application to
companies within the 1900 feet limit on either
side Of the tunnel, over which space special
control Is given. but applies to all mines
drained, benefited or developed by the tunnel.
1t also gives Mr.. Sutro prinaa facie case,
should the Occidental company deny in the
courts that IS mines have been drained or
benefited. The tunnel has been carried as far
as the Comstock lode, and will soon reach its
west wall. 1t is claimed that the great volume
Of air passing through 1t can be carried to the
rem0test workings and greatest depths in the
mines. Millions OF dollars win thus be saved
to stockholders, and the health and the lives of
miners will be protected. The mining COM
panies need no longer fear any sudden influx
of water, and drifting in every direction can
be done with comparative impunlty. IL any
water Is struck above the tunnel level, it will
flow out of its own accord if below, pumping
only for short distance will be required.

SeasOnable Advice.

The Gardeners Monthly gives the follow
ing paragraphs OF SeaSOnaOle advice: the
latter end Of August is one of the best seasons
of the year to transplant evergreens. The
young growth of the past season has got pretty
we'll hardened. so as to permit very little
evap0rafl0n,-and the earth being warm, new
roots push with great rapidity, aud the tree
becomes established in the ground before
IS that the soil Is usually very dry, viii n pre-
vents much speed with the operation; and
the weather being usually very warm, the
trees have to be set again in the ground al
most as fast as they are taken uD: SO that 1t is
not safe to bring them from a distance. 1t is
as we'll, therefore, to make all ready in antici-
patton OF rain, when no time may be lost in
having the work pushed through. Should a
spell OF dry weather ensue-whch in Septem-
Der and october is very likely-One good
well through the soil and well about the roots.
A basin should be made to keep the water
from running away from the spot. and to as
1St lis soaking in. After being well watered,
ne loose soil should be drawn in lightly over
he watered soil, which will then aid in pre-.
venting the water from drying out soon again
AS soon in the fall as bulbs can be obtained,
they should be planted-thOugh this will moi
generally be the case till OctOber-but it as
well to bear in mind that the earlier they are
the end OF the month, and in September, ever
green hedges should receive their last pruning
till next summer. Last spring, and in the
summer, when a strong growth required it,,
the hedge has been severely pruDed towards
the apex of the cone like form in which it has
been trained, and the base has been suffered
to grow any way it pleases. Now that, In
turn, has come under the shears, so far as to
get 1t into regular shape and form. 1t will
not be forgotten that. to be very successful
with evergreen hedges, they ought to have a
growth at the base OF at least four feet in dia-
meter.
