i only necessary to announce that the leading
features which have characterized the editorial
conduct Of the YoRKvILLE ENQUIRER for the

what it has been in the past will be an assurance
Of v hat it shall be in the future. The leading
departments of the paper will be retained as here
tofore and they will be conducted with the same
labor and care that have marked our efforts in the
past. While the Literary and Miscellaneous fea-
lures of the ENQUIRER will be kept up to the
standard which has given the paper distinctive
character, careful attention will also be given to
the News department, which will embrace a re-
cord of the leading events at the State and Ma
tional Capitals; Congressional and Legislative
Proceedings; "Scraps and Facts" being hotch-
potch of light current topics; compend of the

VIrIATED A1R.-Dr. Willard Parker, in a
lecture before the students of the College of
Physicians and Surgeons of New York, used
the following apt words: "If, gentlemen, in
stead of air, you suppose this room to be filled
with pure, clear water, and that instead of air
you were exhaling twenty times a minute d
pint of milk, you can see how soon the water,
at first clear and sparkling, would become
hazy and finally Opaque, the milk diffusing it.
self rapidly through the water. You will
thus be able to appreciate, also, how at each
fresh inspiration you would be taking in a
fluid that grew momentarily more impure.
Were we able to see the air as we are the water,
we would at once appreciate how thoroughly
we are concentrating it, and that unless there
be some vent for the air thus vitiated, and
some opening large enough to admit a free
supply of this very valuable material, we will
be momentarily poisoning ourselves as surely
as if we were taking sewage matter into our
stomachs."
On THE CARE OF THE FEEr.-A clever
writer says that the feet should be given as
nice care as the hands, beginning with bath
of fifteen minutes in hot soap and water, fol-
lowed by scraping with an ivory knife, and
rubbing with bail of sandstone. The nails
may be left to take care of themselves, with
constant bathing aud we'll. fitting shoes, unless
they have begun to grow into the flesh, when
all to be done is to scrape groove lengthwise
in each corner of the nail. The whole foot
should be anointed with purified olive oil, or
oil of sweet almonds, after such bath. The
oil will soak off the old skin, and wear away
the scaly tissue about the nails, while it rem
ders the sole as soft and plant as that of a
young child. Such treatment persisted in
will make the foot as supple and elastic as the
Arabs, and hel ps to realize that highbred
ideal f CURE that so few women ever approach.
Be CAUTIOUS AND BEwARE.-Be cautious
of salves, of plasters and of eye-waters. Be-
ware of hair-dyes, washes for refining the
skin, and of toilet powders. Be careful in
the use of scented soaps. Why? Salves
make and keep the skin sore, plasters prevent
wounds from healing, eye-waters do often
more injury than good, most hairdye pro-
duce sore eyes, beautifying washes are often
poisonous, ditto toilet powders, while scented
soaps are usually too sharp by the free alkali
they contain.

PARITY OF REAsoNING.-Lately at a dis
tribution of prizes at German village, lit
tie girl seven years old, whose parents had
just been turned out of their lodging, because
they had failed to pay their rent, was asked
by the rector:
"Have you studied sacred history, my
childY
"Yes, sir"
"Do you know the history of the creation p
"I know that God made ALL"
"Why were Adam and Eve turned out Of
Paradise?"
The child hesitated moment and then,
fixing her eyes on the examiner, replied
"Robably they aoere turned out because they
could not pay their rent"
Dag A reporter of the Cincinnati Gazette
interviewed the divorced wife Of .Guiteau
while she was on her way to Washington to
testify in the trial of her former husband, on
Tuesday last She denies that Guiteau is
insane, and says she simply regarded him az
of peculiar temperament and exceedingly sell
fish and irritable, always wanting to have his
own way. She said he was very vain and
seemed to enjoy any kind of notoriety, and
was not less sane than most other men are.
She had never heard of insanity in Guiteaus
family and all this talk about his being lu-
natic was entirely new thing to her. The
lady is Mrs. Dunmire, having married
gentleman of that name in Leadville, Colora-
do, which is her present home.

RELIGION AND BUsINEss-The man who
neglects his lawful and necessary business on
the plea of religion, or because be thinks him:
self too holy and heavenl y.mnded to attend
to it in proper manner, ives sad evidence
that his religion is not that of the Bible, or
else that it is very imperfectly or dispropor-
tionately developed. His views are very un.
scriptural and erroneous. Religion does not
consist altogether in going to meeting. There
can be too much of this as well as too little /;
but there cannot be too much religion pro-
vided it is of the right kind. 1t is not thing
for the Sabbath onl y, but for the week. 1t
takes hold upon the every day affairs of life.
A slovenly farmer, or a lazy mechanic, is al
most as much sinner in the sight of God as
is a careless preacher or dishonest merchant.

On the 10Th Guiteau was shot at
twice while being taken from the
court room to Jail. One ball slightly
grazed his wrist, doing but little harm.
The man who did the shooting was ar.
rested at midnight, in a saloon. He
fired at the officers, which appears to
be the worst feature of the case. as
Guiteau appears to be friendless in
Washington. Robinson, who was ap-
pointed to assist Scoville in the de-
tense Of Guitean, has withdrawn from
the case, and Butler is likely to be ap-
pointed in his place. ScovilIe saws if
the Court does not appoint Butler, be

The Custer Mine and Mill.

gives the following description of this
famous mine and mill. They are near
the. town Of Custer, in the Yankee
Fork district, ldahu:
"rhe Custer nine, which is one of
the largest exposed bodies of ore in
the world, is an immense ledge stick
ing above the surface, so that it is
ohly necessary to quarry the ore in
stead of mining it. A tunnel ruhs
into this great ore body at a point
from which ore Can be sent with ease
10 the head Of the tranlway extending
to the mill. A chute extends from The
tunnel to the surface one or two hun
dred feet above, in which ore is sent
down from top. In order that mining
may be conducted through the W inter-,
drifts have been run in from this chute
and the ore is taken out, leaving large
chambers. A supply sufficient to keep
the null running for the next two or
three years is thus exposed to sight,
and can be easily mined as requ red,
1t only requiring 40 men working
twelve hours per day to break down
enough ore to keep the stamps run
ming. The tranway consists of an
endless steel wire rope suspended on
towers aud held in position ly suita.
BILE wheels owes VIII ch it passes. Tue
tramway IS $500 feet i'll length, in
wnlch Instance it rises 1900 f, ct
above the lower end at the null. One
man at the upper end operates brake
to regulate the speed, while all auto
matte machine fills the buckets with
o,e as they move along. These bnck-
cts are suspended by rods from the
rope and each bucket holds about $50
pounds of ore when filled. The Weight
of the loaded buckets operates the
tramway. At the lower end, the ore
house is so arranged that one man cali
u. load the bucket into such bins as it
is desired, so that the ore may go d.
rect to the crushers or be stored for
future crushing. The buckets have
hinged bottom which is self closing,
80 that the process of emptying Con-
slsts only of striking a lever, which
lets the bottom opeu. Should the at
tendant fail to do this, the bucket
would be emptied as it passed
a certain point, where an arrangement
is provided for that purpose. The ore
once in the mill passes through the
crushers, thence through the drying
process, is then pulped by the twenty
stamps and afterwards conveyed by
elevators to the upper part of the mill
to again descend through the roasters
and afterwards treated in the amaIga-
mating and setting pans. All these
movements of the ore, from the time
ii starts from the mine until it leaves
the mill as tailings and fine bullion,
are SO nearly automatic that only if
ty-two men are required for all the
various parts of labor.
Probably no other silver stamp mill
is so economical in labor as the Custer.
Salt, for use in the process of reduc-
ton, is hoisted to the top of the mill
and placed in bin, from which it is
carefully fed to a drying apparatus,
which does the work evenly and with.
out cost for fuel, the spent gases
FROM the roasters being used for the
purpose. The salt and ore are fed to
the stamps by machinery.
The mill was erected in 1880 under
the supervision of Colonel W. B. Hyde
