BOUNDARIES OF MINING CLAIMS.
Engineering and Mining Journal

Engineering and Mining Journal.l
An important decision OF the Supreme
Court OF Colorado, is worthy of attention.
This clearly decides the question OF
swinging" claim to ct o vein. and
says that the surface OF claim as located
cannot be changed to cover any moro OF
the vein than outcrops on the original
location. This is point Of great in
tsrest to miners, and as the decision
seems to receive the approval OF eminent
legal minds. it will probably be estab-
lished as the law OF the land.
No doubt there is certain satisfaction
in having the meaning OF our exceedingly
complex mining laws defined. In this
sense the Eureka Richmond, and this
recent Colotado decision, are the most
important. for the one explains what ia
meant by vein or lode. and defines the
mining rights as limited solely by the
cad lines; the other says that the end
lines are to be drawn through the points
whore the outcrop of the vein crosses the
sid lines and passes out Of the claim.
Important and satisfactory al these de.
cisions are in ono sense, in another they
merely demonstrate more clearly than
ever the absurdity of our mining laws,
which''no fellah can understand" and
which make it all but certain that every
mine which proves of any value must
pass through the ordeal Of one or more
lawsuits.
What we want is q thorough revision
and simpli1cation OF the mining code,
and the adoption of such clear and expli.
cit rules 90 will prevent those conflicts
Of titles which are now the curse of most
Of out Western mining districts. The
immense extension which the term ''lods"
has received In the Eureka. Richmond
decision. and the great varieties of forms
which wider experience shows mineral
deposits assume, render it extremely
desirable that the rights Of mining COM
panies should be bounded by surface
lines. and that every claim should hold
oil the mineral found within vertical
planes drawn through all its bounding
surface lines, just % is now the case with
coal, rock salt, or other mineral deposits
recognized as strati6ed In character.
Naturally this would require mining
claims to have larger area than is now
allowed. Perhaps tho limits allowed by
the old Spanish laws of about 200 meters
In width, might be considered too mar.
row, but 600 meters in length by SOC
meters in width (say 1500x90O feet)
would give sufficient area In most cases.
Then in no case would miner follow
his vein beyond his lines, and be would
ON the other hand, bs entitled to all min
sral within the limits Of his claim. Thil
law would prevent most of the litigation
which now 20 seriously interferes will
the success Of many Of our best mines.

Twelve hundred and sixty acres
of wheat are to be sown on one farm in
Cottonwood County, Minnesota, this

London Hard1Care says: At an eXhi-
bition of japanese art and manufacture
held in the Imperial Palace, the first OBJ

Briggs, K. N, were an American pillow
and large farm wagon.
Misunderstanding is on the increase,
In 1871 the quantity of tobacco used in
the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and Ireland was less than fourteen
ounces head of population; in 1876 it
was one pound seven and one-half
ounces head.
Mr.. j. B. Knight of the Franklin
Institute, in Philadelphia, u scientific
engineer, has made a thorough exam
tnation of the Keely motor during a
period of five months, and reports that
it is fraud, and that the varied parts
of its apparatus have been constructed
with intent to deceive.
The bones from farmers kitchens
would amount to large item of fer

When bone-grinding mill is not with

then add fifty pounds sulphuric acid to
every one hundred pounds of bones.
"A novel and valuable application of
electricity, designed to prevent the posi-
bility of collisions on railroads, is now
the subject of experiment in the Mar
settles station. 1t consists of an electric
mirror, in which all the movements on a
line 100 kilometres in length are brought
wildly before the eye, and enables the
station-masters to follow exactly the
progress of every train. By this means
it is hoped that all accidents resulting
from delays or too rapid runs can be en-
tirely avoided, and arrangements are
being made for the general introduce
ton into the stations of the new inven-
ton.

THE WAR TROUBLES.

Vienna dispatches of the Sd indicate be-
lief that Austria will support England's de-
mand for full discussion of the provisions
Of the treaty, with a view to some important
notifications.
A Vienna dispatch of the 9Th states that
Count Andrassy has replied to Lord Sails
bury, declaring he also regards the accept
ance Of the treaty as impossible and asking
for specific stipulations from England. 1t
is said that Prince Gortschakof will make
similar request. Russia is secretly negotiat-
ing for n large loan.
A London dispatch of the 9Th says: There
seems to be some hope of the renewal of
the Congress negotiations, unless a collision
is precipitated by the necessity for counter
acting the military measures Russia is push
ing forward on both sides of the Danube.
The position at ConstantinOple is regarded
so doubtful, even threatening, for England,
that very slight notifications of the situa-
tion might be considered 10 warrant an act
which would amount TO breach Of neutral
ity.
Intelligence from st. Petersburg via Ber-
lin, 9TH, seems to indicate that the peace
party is acquiring greater influence in the
counsels of the Gar. 1t is reported that the
Gar will solicit the good offices of the En-
peror Of Germany as a mediator between
himself and England. The Russian reply
to Lord Salisbury's circular will, it is said,
lay particular stress upon the absence of a
definite counter proposal. This will be the
main point urged.

converts on the Pacific Coast have been
licensed to preach.
Miss Lou M. Reed, instructor in the

The Bible College, situated at Bing-
hamton, n. Y, which affords free uni
versity course to the daughters of disa-
bled or deceased ministers, without re-
gard to sect, is full to overlooking.
Free schools flourish in Japan
The latest educational report shows
that two million children are receiving
instruction in the schools, that number
representing six per cent. of the whole
population of the empire.
A Presbyterian chapel was dedicat-
ed in the City of Pekin, China, on the
1st of October, 1877. The chapel had
been built in part by the native Chris
tians, but mainly by gifts from friends of
missions. All the missionaries in the
city were present.
A separation of the State Church
of Prussia has occurred in the Province
of Hanover, occasioned by the suspen
sion therefrom of the Rev. Mr.. Harms for
a refusal to observe the new marriage
ritual. A large number of members
have followed Mr.. Harms out of the
church.
The statement comes from trust
worthy source, according to the Spring
field Republican, that fund from the
sale of Gospel Hymns, now amounting
to 5000, 900, is in the hands of John
Wanamaker and George II. Stuart, of
Philadelphia, and John V. Farwell, OF
Chicago, as trustees, and that Moody
and Sankey's support comes from the
proceeds of this fund.
Prof. Felix Adler's exclusion from
the Temple Sinai, Chicago, in which he
had been advertised to lecture, was ex-
planned in a letter by the Rev.. DR..
Kohler, who said: :" shall not allow
my temple to be disgraced by lecture
to be delivered within its walls by one
who blasphemes God and Judaism. "
The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1878-04-11

He also speaks of Prof, Adler as one
who ''has deserted the Jewish flag and
openly processes his disbelief in God and
Immortality"
The Baptists and the Methodists are
both troubled with surplus of minis
tiers. The Yearbook of the former re-
ports in the United States at close OF the
year 1877, Baptist churches, 24,0O0i
Baptist ministers, 1850; that is, 2S
churches to II ministers. The Meth
odist statistics show minister for every
146 communicates, and Bishop Foster
recently stated that there were now
1900 young men knocking at the doors
of the Methodist Church, and seeking
employment rs ministers.
The clergymen in charge of the
Episcopal missions among the freedmen
of the South are encouraged at the result
of their labors. There are already in
the South 81 chapels for colored wor-
shippers of that denomination, 81 clergy
men and teachers, five of whom are col
ored, and one colored evangelist. 1t is
held that of the 100000 cOlored peo-
pie one-third have since the war risen
to higher civilization and higher life I;
one-third have gone down to lower
plane, and one-third are left victims of
circumstances.

French Butter.

The finest French butter is made in
Normandy; the quantity, too, is large,
and the care expended great In LIE
Bessin, near Isigny, there are farms that
sell Fl, 600 worth of butter yearly, and
in view of the predominance given in
this country to the shOrt-horn, it is GU
riOus to read that in that district, which
takes the lead as TO butter, "the Opin
ion of the farmers is that the smallest
cross of the short-horns would reduce
the yield of milk from 20 quarts a day,
which they get now from a newly calved
COW, to IA or 49," First-class short
horns have, however, yielded more than
this, up to % and 30 quarts daily. The
brand at Isigny that makes the highest
price is that of NJ. Demagny. In 1876,
his minimum price for sailed butter was
Fl IS. per hundredweight, and his maxi
mum f10 los. taken at Isigny his sales
during the year reached EGO, 900, mostly
for export to the Brazils. In winter,
Isigny butter realizes from shillings
to 3 shillings and 6 pence per pound
wholesale by auction in the Paris mar
ket! Such a price will seem incredible
to English dairymen. Here is the Sc
cret: "The care in the manufacture
at Isigny is something excessive, and
much of the superiority of the butter is
attributed to this The hand never
touches the butter; it is always beaten
up in cloths; the utensils are of marvel
Gus cleanliness, and if drop of milk or
cream falls on the floor it is at once
sluiced away" Next to Isigny comes
the butter made at Gournay, in the
Seine Inferieure, which, in Paris, reach
es two shillings pound. In Neufcha-
tel, in 1873, $500 tons of butter were
made, averaging on the spot f120 per
ton, total of about f400, 000.-EngIiSh
paper.

been sent to Queen Victoria, praying
her to use all the influence at her COM

The Grand Duke Nicholas is tall,
strongly built, and soldierly in person,
but with no indication of capacity, and
certainly none of refinement, in his
countenance. His forehead is narrow,
his glance fierce but without penetra-

coarsely nodded. He is filled with
buster. His Highness is one of the
best linguists in the Russian empire.
William Calcraft, the English vet

Battenburg, and is a years old. 1t will
be remembered that last year this young
gentleman was reported to be engaged
to Beatrice Mary Victoria Fedora,
youngest daughter of Queen Victoria,
but nothing developed from the report,
so it is probable Prince Louis, who has
a very slender income, was not deemed
on aliOihle match

FOREIGN,

The Earl Of Leitrim, his clerk and driver,
were all shot dead while driving near his
Lordship's lodge, Manor Vaughan, County
Derry, Ireland, on the morning Of the ID.
The Earl had had considerable trouble Of late
with his tenants, large riumber of whom
were under notice to quit. There is no evil
dence In regard to the killing, the three dead
bodies being discovered in the road and in
the ditch, each with one or more bullet-holes
in the head or body. There were evidences
of a severe struggle having taken place, and
the Earl's left arm was broken and his head
battered. Three or four men were seen
lettering in the neighborhOod before the
murder.
The Lerdoists have stirred up another
revolution along the Mexican border. Col.
Salinas, of Tamaulipas, has raised the stand
ard of revolt, and on the LIST, with 40 men,
attacked the Custom house guard at New
Laredo, who were OverpOwered and two
killed. Salinas then retreated, being closely
followed by a force Of National troops.
Large shipments of horses, for military
service, and also of cattle, are being made

Cardinal Giuseppe Berardi is dead. He
was an Italian, born in 1910, and nominated
Cardinal in 1868.
The German EmperOr's letter to Pope Leo
XIU., while extremely courteous in the eX-
preston Of willingness to entertain friend

cation of basis for negotiations.
In the House of Lords, on the Sth, Lord
Beaconsfeld moved an address of thanks to
the Queen for her Majesty's message calling
out the reserves, and followed with a speech,
which was repeatedly cheered. The address
was agreed to without division. Sir Stafford
NorthcOte moved the address in the House
Of Commons, and made a speech. He
was followed by Gladstone, who said
that he did not intend to contest the address
by offering an amendment, because the vote
on supplemental estimates would afford
better opportunity in discussing the policy of
the Government's ornaments. The Chancel-
lor of the Exchequer had failed to show the
existence of an emergency justifying the
calling out of the reserves. Mr.. Gladstone
urged the acceptance of Germany's propo-
sal for preliminary Conference. No vote
was had.
