MINING


NOW 10 fIOat btOck upon =
Great and Good RnbIic.
To those who contemplate the organiza-
ton OF . mining company, says the Phila-
delphia Mining Journal, the stock Of
which is to find its way on our local ex-
changes, q few words of advice may not
be inappropriate. In the first place, do
not pay over $500 for a property, even II it
represents only a sandhill. The brokers
handle certificates-not mines, and IT will
DO well to keep the fact before you. In
corporate FOUR company with . capitalize
ton OF SOC, 600 shares, and il your means
do not allow the expense OF an office, en-
gage desk room somewhere at q low figure.
Your expenses will aggregate say $500, and
not more Than 500 if you can get q prop
erty bonded to you for . length Of time
with q view to purchase. You pay $500
more for listing the stock, and are now on
a fair way fer business. Select half q dozen
brokers, and they will make" sales Of
your stock at various prices varying from
SO cents to 81. But no money must be
expected from these sales, as they are
merely figures for quotations. After
dallying with the stock a month or two,
let the price suddenly drop to 4 and 5
cents. The public will readily risk 4 and
8 cents for a 81 certificate, and if you are
successful in unloading your entire stock,
you sum q total of from SO, 600 to $751;
600 to your credit minus the small outlay
This is the only mining scheme that can
be worked at a profit at present. And yet
there are envious persons connected with
legitimate corporations who publicly state
that their stocks shall not be listed on the
Board. But an allowance must be made
when we take into consideration that these
stocks represent mines that are being
properly developed at considerable outlay.
and the paper in the certificate Of the one
is only eqnal 10 value to the paper Of the
other. But you must not mind the hue
and cry OF these people. They have not
struck the proper method.

A Chance for Another White Pine
outbreak.

A Chance for Another White Pine
Outbreak.
The Phoebe Record gives the particulars
OF the shooting of an Indian by a young
man named syphers, the son Of the Nor
mon Bishop Of Panaca. II appears that
the young desperate was on his way home
from Bullionville, and CHANGED to meet an
Indian. Without cause or provocation,
Syphers drew his revolver and shot the
Piute, inf1icting what is considered to be
a mortal wound. From last accounts the
assassin. who is alleged to be q very hard
case, and who has or several previous oc-
casions handled the pistol, has not been
ap~prehended. The affair is q much more
serious one than may appear from the
mere particulars OF the probable tragedy.
One-half Of our Indian wars have been
p~recipitated by just such violent and bar
barous acts as this son of q Bishop has
ding Of q great deal Of innocent blood,
but the expenditure of vast sums of
money. Although quite free from the
former since '65, we have had a bloodless
war in a neighboring county, a repetition
OF which would wreck the finances of the
State almost beyond redemption, and re-
tard the development Of the mining and
agricultural interests for half q decade.
The Pluto tribe, being scattered over 4
vast stretch Of territory. may not be able
to present a very bold front, but tits not
likely, cowardly as they appear to us dur
ing their lazy habits in our streets, to
quietly submit to the murder Of one Of
their number while the assassin is allowed
to run at large. 1t is to be hoped that the
authorities of Lincoln County will appease
the wrath of the redskins by capturing
Billy the Kids disciple, and keeping him
where the hangman can put his hand upon
him, SHOULD the law so direct.

The SENTINEL is indebted to ]. E. Hill
gard, of the United States Coast and
Geodetic Survey, Washington, D. c., for
two magnificent charts Of Yorktown and
vicinity. The maps have been made for
the occasion of the Yorktown Centennial,
and are published by transfer to stone
from engraved plates, combined with
photolithographic reductions from draw
ings and prints. The topography Of the
interior Of Yorktown Peninsula is COM
piled from United States military survey,
and presents to those familiar with Amer
lean history q view Of the ground where
Washington's band of patriots and the al
lied French bottled up the baughty Lord
CORVALLIS, and compelled him to sur
render his army, which was the beginning
OF the end Of the revolution for independ-
ence. The national days Of the celebra-
ton, we believe. begin to-day, which will
be o memorable one In the observance, as
it will witness the presence Of the Presi-
dent, q portion Of the Cabinet, nearly all
the Senators, and q host Of distinguished
military men and civilians from both at
home and abroad. But the most noted
personages present will be the descendants
Of the gallant Frenchmen who aided the
patriots in their struggle for freedom, ac-
accompanied by the representatives OF the
French Government to the Centennial.

Thursday was a day the like of which is
not often witnessed in this or any other
section Of the country. The wind blew a
fearful gale, and the dust blew in volumes
80 thick as at times to obscure the light Of
the sun. By request of a committee Of
citizens all the fires on Main street were
extinguished as a precaution against fire.

Cotton Factories and PhilanthrOphy.
: boston Special to Philadelphia Times.
Atlanta Constitution

Mr.. Charles Estes, of Augusta, who
is now travelling the continent over as
an apostle of manufacturing, says
Every thousand dollars put into cotton
factories will comfortably support FIVE
people," The statistics shows that $1,000
given to philanthropic purposes will
hardly support five people one year.
It costs 5000 per head to support pau
per, or $1,000 for five. But $1,000 put
into cotton factory will give to the
five people it supports the sweetest
bread of earth-that earned by honest
labor Put into almshouses, it gives its
stipendiaries the bitter bread of chart
ty. In the first case it builds up the
country-supports schools and stores,
and makes idle hands busy. In the
last it stagnates, paralyzes, impedes.
Money put into an asylum does its work
in one year and is gone. Put into q
cotton factory it is an investment that
supports its five people year after
year, gives its owner a handsome divi-
dend, and then comes back to him un-
impaired. The man who invests in cot
ton factories, then, is a true philanthro-
pist in effect if not in purpose. The
returns show that factories pay in the
South % per cent. per snnum dividend.
Where viii philanthropy pay better?
