Precious-Metal Mining in the United
.... $780,. ...-.-. States.

Whoever looks over the whole field of
American precious-metal mining will be
convinced that this industry is certain to
make a very rapid growth in what isaeft
OF this century. He will also come to the
conclusion that the production Of silver.is
destined to increase very rapidly for q
score OF so Of years to come, provided the
demand for this much-slandered metal
does not fall too far short of the supply.
Beyond a brief term this yield of silver
will surely diminish, especially if there is
any considerable lowering in its price.
The obsetvant eye can also see that the
production Of gold is likely to be ex-
tended to many new fields, and that the
yield of this metal is, in the future,
likely to be rather more steady than that
of its bulkier sharer in the greed Of men.
North America and the twin continent
on the south are doubtless to be the
great producers of precious metals in
the future; their store of silver must be
of greater value at the present price of
this metal than their store of gold. II
the world continues to use silver in the
coming century as it has in the past
thirty centuries, there is fair prospect
that our continent will win some thou
sands of millions from its silver-bearinp
lodes. Even il we make what seems to
me the mistake of gold alone as
basis of exchange, the production Of
this metal will no doubt give us larger
mining industry than any other country
can expect to gain.-Attnntic llonthly.

Max Muller to Ralph Waldo Emerson,


In honor of Ralph Waldo l5meEson's
birthday, Max Muller sent the following
letter from London:
The translator Of the Upanishads.
Mollshamula-Ra, sends greetings and
best wishes to his American Guru,
Amarasunu, on his 18th birthday, and
mcloses all extract from an Upanishad
lately discovered:
cold age and decay lay hold of the
body, the senses, the memory, the mind
never Of the Self, the looker-on.
The Self never grows tired-th
body grows tired Of supporting the Self.
1.-The Self never grows blind the
windows Of the senses become darkened
with dust and rain.
s 6 The Self never forgets- inscrip-
tons on the memory fade, and it is well
that much should be forgotten.
:" The Self never errs ~ the many
wheels Of our own small watches grow
rusty, but we look up to the eternal dial
IN the heavens above, which remains
right forever"

Atlas.

Professor to classical student: You
ask, if Atlas supported the world, what
supported Atlas. The question, dear
sir, has often been asked, but never, 80
far as 1 am aware, satisfactorily an
swered. I have always been Of the
opinion that Atlas must have married
rich wife and got his support. from her
father.

Interesting Cabinet, Meeting.

There was very interesting session OF the
cabinet this afternoon. >The outrage on Deputy
Collector Stewart and Instantly. in Fannin
county, Georgia, by moonshners-the details Of
which were given In yesterdays SrAR-was dis
cussed. The principal point OF the discussion
was In reference to the question whether the
perpetrators of the incendiaTiSm and attack were
amenable to the United States laws. This was
referred to the Attorney General for decision.
sitting Bull again came 10 for Cabinet consider
Secretary Ramsay that the Sitting Bull Indians
Ing in large numbers. are not In fact doing so.
Comparatively few have presented themselves.
III the military authorities receive them tney
VIII take them as prisoners of war: they will
then have TO be fed by the government. If they
should come In large numbers they could not
be fed. According to Gen. Miles, as stated.
1he Indians are not SO many In num-
Der who want to surrender that they cannot
be provided for. The report will be acted
on in the manner indicated-Such Indians
as come in Will be taken in and given food
The West Point outrage was also considered
by the Cabinet. The Secretary of War had no
new facts TO report. 1t was thought that Whit
taker should have counsel before the board OF
inquiry now sitting, OF rather the government
ought TO furnish some one to look after the
ttgation of the affair is had. To this end it was
