About Mining.

II has often been remarked that
two dollars are put in the ground
for every one taken out, but II
a l-- 'ha AVERAGE mind to
prove tho assertion, and we very
much doubt IT, Colorado produced
In the year 1881 in round numbers
$50, 900, 600 Now according TO the
above assertion in order to produce
this amount the immense sum Of
s44, coo, 900 would have to be put
into the ground, to use the asser-
ton. Can any one think this was
the case? Again, an average Of 500
was extracted from the mines of the
State last year for every man
woman and child in the State, OF
an average Of 5000 for every miner
Can any one think for a moment
| that an average of double this
amount was spent in its extraction
The abaurdity of the argument II
proof enough against IT, Tha'
money has been spent in its extrac
tion2 The absurdity Of tho argu
ment is proof enough against it
That money has been spent un
profitahly at times, no sane man car
dolly, but take the whole industry
of mining and the facts of the cas-
fall short Of proving the assertion

who lived practical Christian life;

Woolrich was blowing his garden
patch, on the farm purchased last
November of Jud Beardsley, he no.
ticed in one of the furrows what he
supposed to be white carrot, and
of which, by the way, he was passion
ately fond; but, to his sorrow, twas
a parsnip. This occurred about
half past ten o'clock, and his stomach
being empty, digestion immediately
began and the poison quickly per
meated his whole system. But
very short time elapsed after eating
the root before John discovered his
mistake, and he at once started
for the house to get reliei; and had
not his wife, who happened to be
out of doors, looked toward where
he had been working, he would have
been unable to reach the house, fei
when discovered he Was rambling
and overcome with intense pains.
Mrs w. Immediately gave him salt
and water to drink, which produced
no result, when she sent for Mrs. ]
Woolrich, Sr. BY the time his
mother arrived the pain had so in
creased that a physician was at once
sent for, and Dr. Tailman made
haste, conjecturing the cause of the
illness. On arriving DIR. Il. found
him paralyzed, the teeth so firmly
set that no medicine could be taken
ut the mouth, and therefore dispatch
, ed his team for DR.. Patterson. On
DR.. Patterson's arrival injections OF
ammonia and brandy were given
the purposes of which probably
were antidotal and stimulant; anc
during the treatment nearly 400 ol
these injections have been made
covering almost the entire body IL
their location. During Friday anC
a portion of Saturday it required anc
sometimes matched the strength o
three able.bodied men to hold tn
|
patient as he writhed with the horri
bic, torturing pains As the poison
which we understand to be n narcot
ic, and affecting the nerves anc
brain, was eliminated from the sys
TEN he became more quiet, and by
Saturday evening had partially re
covered sensibility, and at times was
conscious of his condition and what
was transpiring about him. Sunday
he was apparently n great deal bet
ter; also, on Monday; but at this
writing, Tuesday afternoon, he seems
to be sinking, and is quite low. So
far as attention and nursing are con.
cerned, everything has been done
to alleviate suffering and induce re-
covery. DR.. II. has been very de
voted in his attention To the case,
and has used all the skill he is pos
sessed of to help the patient; and
anxious relatives and friends are in
tensly interested, hoping for his
speedy recovery. In this sad affair,
though married but two month, Mrs
Kate Woolrich has endured anguish
enough for life time, and the sym
pathy Of the entire community is ex'
tended to her in this trying ordeal.
DEAD Johnnie died at half past
ten on Tuesday night, and was un-
Conscious for several hours previous.
Thus has suffered aud died an in
dustrious, intelligent, soclable and
God fearing man--a man whose life
practices the youth Of this commu-
nifty would do well to take as a pat
tern. If he had lived, John would
be 20 years of age on the 26,h inst.
The funeral will t.ke place this
afternoon, at 2 O'CLOCK.

BADLY BRUISED. Miller, so
long in the employ Of VIM. Lanyon,

him aud his habits, last Sunday af-

the stor quarry near JAS. Spensley's,
fell or rolled off aud down into the
quarry below, which resulted in his
being severely bruised, though no
bones were broken. His back, breast,
face, left side and hand are very
badly used up. He laid in The quar-
ry all Sunday night, and when found
on Monday morning was hardly able

Of drinking too much intoxicating
beverages, which is drawing it mild

IT is generally supposed that par
snips which have been in the ground
over one season are poisonous; this
is in fact believed by majority of
people. Since John Woolrich has
been poisoned we've been told that
parsnips are not poisonous, but that
a root which closely resembles the
parsrip, and which at all stages of
its growth is poisonous, should be
blamed for this sort of misery.
Well, if this be true, you who can't
tell these roots apart had better alb
stain from the use of all white roots.
If you do, you'll not be poisoned
with parsnips,
