A SMALL FAMILY.-The people of Bris-
tol cannot understand how it is that
Bunkerville, much younger place, draws
more school money than they do. The
settlement of Bunkerville has more chill
dren. The family of Dudley Leavitt, ST.,
will alone nearly double Bristol. 1t con-
sists Of "a children, 81 of whom are be-
tween the age Of 6 and Is years, seven
under years, and six over Is and under
81 years of age Twenty-Five of these
children attend school, not including the
numerous children of the several other
small families at that place.
"HARDLY JusT. We think that it
is hardly fair for the ex-editor of the N.
Y. Times to be impugning the acts Of our
county officials without just cause. 1t is
certainly case of the grossest Ignorance,
or something worse, since the facts, which
are accessible to all, are simply these:
That the apportionment in question was
made according to law) on the basis of
the census of last year, Phoebe then hav.
ing lS4 children of school age and Bristol
IL, which little problem in arithmetic we
hope will not prove too difficult for the
genius of the ex-editor.
DAY CoMPANY.-At the Day mine
the lower workings continue favorable,
and the bottom of the winze continues in
ore. The Chisholm mine still yields its
regular supply of Aux and is looking well.
The furnace is now running as nicely as
possible, turning out the richest base
bullion in the State. The copper matte
is to be shipped to Hamburg, Germany,
for reduction. Owing to bad air in the
Day mine, most of the men have been
knocked off until ventilation is made.
| PAYDAY MINE. After Strengthening
the shaft and putting in timbers and
false guides, Supt. Hook resumed sink
ing on Tuesday. Everything is running
smoothly and good work is being done
In the bottom Of the shaft floral spar and
shale has been encountered, with som.
little quartz. The GROUND is changeabl'
able and breaks well. Depth of shalt
l62 feet.
The game law expired OH the first o
September and now white person cal
