Mr.. Wheelock, of White Oaks,
in a recent interview says: "The
prospects of White Oaks are really
good. They are better now than
ever before. New strikes are be-
ing made daily, and all the miners
are very happy, There is a new
mill in operation at the camp-a
now process-that does the work
of forty stamps, and will run
through sixty tons Of ore a day.
The mill is under the care and SUI
porvision of live, energetic men,
who are considerably interested in
mines in the neighborhood, and
who are determined to show what
White Oaks will be. ~ Pasc

An eminent example of American
Enterprise, Energy and Perso-
verance.

In the hands of young men this
great system has been so carefully
managed that it has earned a repu-
tation second to none for convent
ence, safety and the luxuries of
travel. 1t is fast becoming the
popular route for transcontinental
travel, in connection with the
Southern Pacific railroad.
1t has opened up an almost un-
limited field for pioneer enterprise
in the far West. No other rail
road a carry a man, who is seek
ing his fortune, to golden opportu-
mites such as are open along a
thousand miles of this great sys-
tenn.
Special freight rates are given to
miners and immigrants.

The city is however, by no means
entirely empty Of men, fit is, Of
women Of leisure, and they find
here many compensations for the
delights Of country and of water

THE BAD BOY.

show is your muscle this norm
ing"
IAN rightenough," said the boy,
with a look Of inquiry, as though
wondering what was coming next.
"Why!"
50, nothing, only | was going
to grind the hatchet, and some
knives and things, this morning,
and | thought maybe you would
like to 90 out in the she'd and turn
the grind-stone for me to develop
your muscles. Turning a grind
stone is rhe healthiest thing a boy
can do"
That is all right enough" said
the bad boy, as he took up Il sweet
cracker, "but please take a good
look at nae. DO look like a grind
stone boyl Do | resemble Il good
little boy that can't say no. and
goes of and turns a grind-stone
half a day for some old duffer, who
pays him by giving him a handful
of green %currants, or telling him he
will will be a man some day, and
the boy goes off one way, with a
lame back, while the good man
goes the other way, with a sharp
scythe, and a chuckle at the soft
ness of the boy! You are mistak-
enin me. have passed the grind
stone period, and you will have to
pick up another sardine who has
never done circular work. Not
any grind-stone for Hennery, if
you please"
'You are getting too smart"
said the grocery man, as he charg-
cd a pound of sweet crackers to the
boys father. you don't have to
turn the grind-stone if you don't
want to-"
CHATS what | thought" SAYS
the boy, as he takes a handful of
blueberries. you grind-stone
sharps, who are always laying for
a fool to give tatfy to, and get him
to break his back, don't play it fine
enough. You bear on too hard on
the grind stone. | have seen the
time when a man could get me to
turn a grind-stone for him till the
cows come home, by making me
believe it was fun, and by telling
me he never saw a boy that seem
ed to throw so much soul into turn
ing a grind stone as | did, but |
have found that such men are by
pocrites. They inveigle a boy into
their nest, like the spider does the
fly, and at first they don't bear on
hard, but Just let the blade of the
axe or the scythe touch the grind
stone, and they make a boy believe
he is a biggerman than old Grant.
They bet him he will get tired,
and he bets that he can turn a
grind stone as long as anybody,
and when the boy has got his repu-
tation at stake, then they begin to
bear on hard, and the boy gets
tired, but he holds out, and when
the tools are ground, he says he is
as fresh as adaisy, when he is tired
enough to die. Ssch men do more
to teach boys the hollowness of
the world, and its tricky features,
than anything, and they teach boys
to know who are friends and who
are foes. No, sir, the best way is
to hire a grown person to turn your
grind-stone. | remember | turned
a grind-stone four hours for a farm
er once, and when | got through
he said | could go to the spring
and drink all the water | wanted
Tor nothing. He was the tlghtest
man | ever saw. Why, tight.
That man was tight enough to hold
kerosene
"That's all right. Who wanted
you to turn a grind-stone, anyway

Concerning Vacancies in the Cabinet.

concerning vacancies IN the CABINET.
Tho following sections of law relative to
vacancies in the executive office will be read
with interest at this time. 1t will be observed
that section $50 requires the appointment of
a postmaster general within ten days from tho
date of the happening Of the vacancy:
SEC. III. In case of the DEATH resignation,
absence, or sickness Of the head OF any depart
ment, the first or sole assistant thereof shall,
unless otherwise directed by the president as
provided by section 40 perform the duties of
such head until successor is appointed, or such
absence or sickness shall cease.
SEC. 17S III case of the death, resignation abb
sence sickness of the chief of any bureau or of
any officer thereof whose appointment Is not
vested in the head of the department. tho assistant
or deputy Ofsuch chief or ofhuch oiCeT or ifthere
be none, then the chief clerk such bureau, SHALL
unless otherwise directed by the president ns pro-
Vlded by section l79, perform the duties Of such
chief or of such onicer until Il successor rs APP
Pointed or such absence or sickness shall cease.
SEC l79. In any OF the cases mentioned III the
two preceding sections, except the death, reHigna-
ton, absence, or sickness of the attorney general,
the president may, in his discretion, authorize
and direct the head of any other department or
any other officer in either department whose ap-
pointment is vested In the president, by and with
the advice and consent of the senate, to perform
the duties of the vacant office until successor is
appointed or the sickness or absence of the In
cumbent shall cease.
SEC. lsO A vacancy occasloned by death or res.
ignatiOn must not be temporarily filled undor the
three preceding sections for longer period than
GfA days.
At the time of the vacancy which happened
in the Navy department in 1850 by the resigna-
tion of Mr.. Thompson, the question was agi.
tated in the newspapers rs to whether the
officer temporarily designated for the ten days
could not again be so designated for another
ten days, and so on until the expiration of the
brief remainder of President Hayes's term.
But the peremptory language of section $50
was the reply, and Secretary Golf was ap-
pointed secretary of the navy.

will Possibly END.
Bids for furnishing four fatboats for the
Potomac flats improvement were opened at
the office of Mai Peter c. Hains yesterday,
and were as follows: j. Y. summers and Will
liam McDevitt, SO, 1914 $. Il. Parsons, Sd
51924; William G. Hunter, $1,S69.Ss; George
Cumberland and c. f. Bennett, S5,239, all of
Washington; John i. Hcaly, of Baltimore,
$3.50.
''How is the work getting along, major !"
asked THE REPUBLICAN reporter.
"As we'll as could be expected, was the re-
ply "The contractors realize the necessity
ofpushing tho work the railway upon the
first section Is entirely built and the work of
dredging is going on. A portion of the rail-
way of the third section is now constructed
and the remainder will be built as fast as
desirable They think that the entire appro-
priation will be used up before cold weather.
You see, in this work on the flats
there are three improvements: the
deepening of the river channel, the raising of
the flats, and the building of sea wall. At
present we are deeping the channel, and the
dredged matter is deposited on the flats. IL
Is intended TO make a channel 400 feet wide
and 21 feet deep, to connect the deep water at
Aiesboro' point with that Mt Georgetown.
With the dredged material this season we can
probably cover the flats to the depth OF about
six feet above low water"
How much earth will be obtained in this
Improvement of the channelP
"a little less than 100000 cubic yards.
The contractors have five dredges of their
own, and if it becomes necessary they will
procure more so there will probably be no
delay in the prosecution of the work.
"Will you commence the sea wall this sea-
eon?"
Eyes; portion of it will be built to pro-
tect the earth which is placed on the flats,
and prevent it from being washed back by a
freshet"
"How long will the whole improvement
takeY
"That depends upon the magnanimity of
congress. If large appropriations are made
the Improvement can probably be completed
in three years. l think in about year l can
show sufficient progress to convince congress
of the wisdom Of liberal appropriations for this
work.

ARCHAEOLOGY.
Specimens OF Indian Utensils Found In
the District.


the District.
The fact that the District of Columbia is
rich mine of archaeological treasures is known
to only a few persons Such, however, is the
case, and the few laborers in this field are
cleaning a royal harvest. DIR. Elmer e. Rey-
nolds has already awakened public attention to
this fact, and now comes younger, but not
less enthusiastic scientist, Louis A. Kengla of
Georgetown university, whose essay on this
subject, recently published, is valuable con-
tributiOn to the archaeology of the district.
There were at the time Columbus discov-
cred America, and later, about forty tribes of
Indians nhabiting what is now the District
of Columbia. There was no coddling among
them. They fought each other with as much
good will as wild beasts. Their camping and
fishing grounds were the distrsct between the
hastern branch, the Tiber and the Potomac.
In this district arc found most abundantly
specimens of Indian remains. The next rich
vein is on Mr.. Corbery's farm, above George
town, on the Ridge road. Around the dis
tributing reservoir is another rich field. In
these localities are found in great abundance
stone axes, clubs and pestles, clay and
soapstone pottery, chisels, ornaments,
knives and scrapers, arrow and stone
heads. The axes are very rude, some
what resembling cobble stones. The pestles
and clubs are more elaborate. The specimens
of clay pottery shown exhibit taste snd skill
and even refinement. Judging from the speci-
mems he had collected, Mr.. Kengle comes to
the conclusion that the natives of the district
were quite numerous, and their skill would
be worthy of tribes who had attained higher
degree Of civilization.
