A cable dispatch stated the other
day that the famous Dr.. Stsousbere
had offered his creditors three cents
on the dollar, and that it ~as likely
to be accepted. Many Of our readers
will not have forgotten the career of
this most extraordinary man. Born
in 1923. Prussian Jew. he went to
London in 1885. and in his boyhood
joined the church Of England. While

some damaged goods and selling them
at q heavy profit, returned to London,
where he invested his money in nevs-
paper. and then went to Berlin rs
agent for an insurance company. A
chance Acquaintance with some Eng.
lish capitalists led to his becoming q
contractor. He went from Que work
to another. and within . few years
MAS employing over 100000 men,

There is no saying how matters might
have Frospered with him but for the
breaking out Of the Franco-G German
war. which found him up to his ears
in enterprises at once impsrilled by
that event. Had he declared failure
then he would have merely been
deemed victim Of fate. and might
have soon made . prosperous fresh

pleting his Bohemian iron-wOrks, from
which it is thought his profits really
promised to be COLOSSAL. The final
collapse came to st. Petersburg. He
had borrowed money from the Bank Of

Proper Use of Mining Terms.

Proper use OF 4tning Terms.
The La Plata Miner Is reforming
things generally in the Sun Juan
country, and naturally the confusion
of mining terms comes under its ken.
The Miner says that several different
words are used among miners to ex.
press the same thing. which some.
times conveys wrong impressions. For
example the words lods vein ledgs and
lead, are severally used to express the
same idea. The word ledge 10 used
generally BY California and Nevada
miners, but is evidently not q good
word. The generally accepted mean
ing word ledge is a horizontal layer
which projects. 1t comes from the
Saxon ledger. a layer, and should not
he used to express perpendicular
vein. Vein is q better word, and in
geology means "a seam of any sub
stance, interesting q rock or stratum
and not corresponding with the strait.
ication." There is no we'll founded
authority for useing the word to ex.
press q assure vein. M it has been one
signi6cxtion-'a metallic vein or any
regular vein or crevice. whs;h.s me-
tallic or not, but community q metallic
vein." Tunnel. drift and adit are also
words which frequently convey the
wrong meaning. The only definition
which Webster gives OF the word
drift in connection with mining 10 ~
passage cut between shaft q passage
within the earth" This word comes
from drive, and would appear to b.
the more proper name for excavation
under ground. Tunnel is more
properly q passage through q hill or
mountain and would appear to b the
proper name for an opening from the
surface into q mine. Adit Is frequent
" used in the same sense % tunnel
and probably correctly. but in this
section Of country in useing the word
adit, miner usually means the open
cut outside tho tunnel. By useine
the word in this sense, We have q term
to express clearly every part of the
workings. First. the tunnel, which
reaches from the internal workings,
and the drifts. which are interior
chambers running from the tunnel.
If miners universally would use these
terms a above indie ated it would
avoid confusion.

More than half a century since the
Bank Of England resumed specie pay
- ments in advance of an act of Parlia
meDt fixing the date for resumption.
The bank had about 500. 600. 900 in
notes afoat, and something over $780,.
100000 in gold coin in its vaults.
These notes were redeemed when pre-.
scented with gold for nearly a year,
when the coin 10 the vaults ran down
very low, but just then the demand
tor gold ceased, as the people found
that the bank was entirely solvent and
able to pay ITS notes in what they
have ever since recognized as the true
standard of value - Guinea gold.
When the Bank of England made its
first attempt at resumption the effect
upon business was almost disastrous,
but after few months trade improved.
and before the first year Of resump-
ton closed all lines were active, and
prosperity fully restored. Our Treas
ury is now our National Bank, and it
is about to resume specie payment. 1t
had the advantage of the Bank Of
England in 1921, because it has
brought gold down to par, but the un-
dertaking Of our government is quite
as great a. was that of the British
concern in the FIST quarter of the cen
tury. We have over $500, 600, 900 in
paper money aAoat. and to redeem this
vast volume We have in the Treasury
vaults $l35. 0OO, 900 in gold coin
which is Immediately available for pur-
poses Of resumption. We have the
advantage of q right to reissue the
redeemed notes, and this, With the
probable satisfaction of the popular
demand for gold with the disburse.
ment Of 500, 900, 900 in coin, may
make our attempt at resumption a
success.
There are some dangers apparent,
such as the depreciation Of silver and
the boarding of gold, but the grow.
ing confidence in the credit Of the gov
eminent may prevent these from a.
Stunning very extensive proportions,
and If % ill will Be well.

The following story Of prominent rail-

ing railroad companies has lately extended
its mileage by leasing another road thus dis
posing of an opposition ronte, also securing
monopoly ofa coveted section Of country.
Whilst the articles of the lease were under
discussion, one of the gentlemen present,
mentioned very important law suit,
pending, involving some $40 900, to which
the leased road was party and that the lesse
would probably fall heir to that. "oh, no"
said the Superintendent, emphatically, eve
won't have anything to do with law suit
our lease don't covor that" "But," replied
the gentleman who first mentioned the sub
Ject, "the suit is pending, and you must as
sumo it." al tell you we won'tl l assure
you our lease don't cover law suits; we
have been very careful on that point" re-
joined the Superintendent. "Well, am
very sorry for you, for your leased road is
the Plaintiff in the case, and the attorney
says he is sure to gain it," replied the first
speaker. "What how? Repeat that re-
mark, sir" said the superintendent. The
case was again stated. "Ah Ah Well
yes-party plaintiff, that's different ques-
ton Oh, yes our lease does cover that"
