A daughter Of Ex-Secretary Evarts
made herself favorite in Washington
society, not alone by her snowy com
plexion, gray-blue eyes and golden
hair, but as we'll by her cups Of choc-
olate. The Mexican Minister used to
say that in his own land no beverage
was SO delicious. 1t was made of the
best already sweetened chocolate,
broken and put in a warm spot to
melt. When afterward put into q
farina kettle, boiling milk was poured
upon it, and from the moment when
the first drop Of milk touched it until
it was done it was stirred. 1t was
allowed to boil for several minutes,
and when it was served in delicate
cups it was thick and almost jelly
like, and was capped with whipped
cream. THIS is the way that Baker,
vanilla chocolate should always be
prepared.

music remarkably good, the dancing pro-

rangement OF the Club everything that
could be desired. Dancing was commenced

A piece OF galena ore carrying consider
able "black metal" taken from the
Queen mine, Silverado District, was
brought in yesterday, which is said to
assay s2,5Oo per ton. This mine
has been a good paying property,
the owners Of Ii having been able
TO erect out OF the proceeds of their
work steam hoisting works. Develop
ments are going on all the time,
which the mine pays for, and more.
The main shaft is of size 6x8
feet and Is down 215 feet. A drift
Is Il off northerly from the shaft, from
which q Wine has been sunk rs feet on q
vein OF ore two feet thick, that run clean
across the shaft. This ore will work an
average OF $500 per ton, and the vein
shows signs Of permsnence. About two
years ago considerable ore was struck in
this mine at q depth OF 100 feet from the
surface, and was followed by an incline, in
which IL seemed to finish. The discovery
OF q paying vein OF ore at the present
depth is hailed as a sign OF a permanent
paying property. The Queen mine has
already produced over 500. 900, and regu-
lar shipments to the Eureka furnace are
again being inaugurated. The Queen is
one Of the many properties in this section
that shows that mining pays-at least in

SMOKING BEFORE THE DOCTORS

Opium Clouds Rolled Forth by Elk
perts During n Medical Lecture.
"Opium Smoking from a Medical Stand
point" was the subject Of a lecture by Dr..
FL. II. Kane before the New York County
Medical Society last week. The lecture
wag illustrated by four smokers, furnished
by the doctor. Two OF them were China
men and two were Americans. One of the
Cinnamon wore only his native custume,
although both preserved their queues. Ali
four were habitual opium smokers. A
wide bunk similar to those found in the
Mott street cellars, had been rugged up in
front Of the lecturers desk. 1t was COW
cred with a piece of straw mating. The
smokers reposed on this and pulled during
the lecture, which lasted for upward Of an
hour. The lecture pointed out a number
OF things. One was that the habitual
opium smoker ia no more stupefed by the
practice than Is the habitual smoker OF
tobacco. The living illustrators bore tes-
timony to this, ~conversing in q natural
manner with q number Of the audience
who addressed them at the conclusion Of
the lecture, Notwithstanding the pipes, or
pals" as the smokers call them, had
been r~eplenished constantly, and the
smoking had been incessant. The novice,
DR.. Kane said, so far from being mar
cotized, would be unable to sleep after
smoking several pipefuls. The lecturer
spoke of an opium-smoking house in one
OF the upper streets near Sixth avenue
that is frequented wholly by women. At
the conclusion of the lecture and the in
spection, the illustrations walked away,
saying that they had enjoyed an excsllent
smoke and passed q pleasant evening.

for the last 10 years. Over 1850 feet OF

smelted at Dayton foots up over Sl00,0OO.
This ore runs from 10 TO go per cent in

which the killing occurred, we publish the
following from the Kansas City Times Of

yesterday Of one Barney Elliott, at Cool
idge, by Edward f. Hardesty, q former
attorney Of our city, well known and
universally liked. Hardesty is q son Of
John +. Hardesty, of the famous cattle
firm Of Hardesty Bros. The circum.
stances are as follows: Elliott was q
hired man Of Hsrdesty's. Knowing that
Hardesty would not return until late,
and being of about the same size and
complexion, he left his own room
at about IL o'clock, entered the chamber
Of Mrs. Hardesty, who is quite young and
handsome, and married but two years.
Elliott then crswled into bed, Stimulating
the voice Of Hardesty. Hardezty's wife
thought it was her husband. The mistake
being soon discovered the villain left. On
his arrival home Hardesty was informed
Of the facts, his wife being in Mysteries.
His only pistol being in charge Of Elliott,
he repaired to town, half o mile distant,
procured to Colts, 45-caliber, and coming
back found Elliott in the stable. He i'm
mediately charged him with the ofense.
Elliott not denying it, he said Il will
have to kill you /; you cannot live in the
same world with me- He then fired II
shots, hitting Elliott six times. He, Of
course, fell dead, when Hardesty in his
fury beat him with his revolvers, injuring
his own hands severely. The action OF
Hardesty is universally approved. He is
arrested for murder in the second degree,
but is out on his own recognizanee,
though his uncle. R. J. Hardesty, offered
500, 900 as security. His trial comes of
