The mineral products of the United
States are immense. According to the
official report recently issued by Mr..
Albert Williams, Jr., the chief of the
division of mining statistics and Tech
nology of the United States geological
survey, the value of the mined products
of this country in 1882 amounted to q
grand total of $453, 913, 4O6, of which
$219,756,O04 was in metallic products,
iron alone reaching $1O6, 3S6, 429. The
value of the silver mined was $46, $780,
600; gold, $32, SOC, 600; coal, over $146,-
$4,000. But large as these figures are,
they are mere bagatelle when compared
to our agricultural products, the aggre-
gate value of which amounts up into

Married Actresses and Their
Husbands.
From the Boston Traveller.

There is a stage tradition that when
an actress marries she looses her at
tractiyeness with the general public, or
at least with the main portion of it, and
n nine cases out of ten continues to
perform under her maiden name which
may be her own, or simply a nom de
the.>tre. There is moreover, preiu-
dice against the husbands of actresses;
they are considered as a general thing
-and in many instances the facts war
rant the consideration-to be rather
worthless lot, who live on the earnings
of their wives, and are altogether too
lazy to contribute anything towards tho
family expenses. 1t is true, as a New
York paper says, that 'it is a pitiful end
in life, after all, to be labeled as Miss
So-and. Sos husband'-the highest title
10 which most gentlemen of that variety
may aspire. This is who the husbands
of some OF the ladies of the stage are:
ilenry T. Paddock is the husband -
Maggie Mitchell, and was formerly a
halter in Cleveland, o., Cyril SearIe, an
actor, who we believe, does not act, is
the husband of Rose Eytinge. Robert
Fulford, an English Canadian, formerly
an actor and journalists, is Annie Pix
ley's husband. Madame Janauschek's
husband is nonentity by the name of
Pilot. Minnie Palmer is the wife of
her manager. Mr.. Rogers Catharine
Lewis took for husband Swede named
Oscar Arfwedsohn. He is said to have
been in his day very rich man, but
now is so reduced in circumstances that
it is said that he is tending bar in a
saloon on Eighth avenue, New York.
Mrs. jeffrey LIE Wis, the sister of Cathe-
rine, is Mrs. Maitland He was San
Francisco stock operator, but he turned
out so badly that his wife had to
leave him and return to the
3tage. Lillian RusselPs husband is Mr..
Harry Braham. EHe German is a Wild
ow, but her late husband was a negro
minstrel, named Gibbons. Mrs. Marie
Wilkins first husband was the once IA
nous criminal lawyer, Sergeant Wilkins.
The name OF her present husband has
escaped US. Miss Marie Janson took for
her husband James Barton Key who
was shot by General >ickles. Minnie
Maddern's husband is Mr.. Legrand
White, who was musician, but is now
a nothing. Mr.. Fredric Harrlott, once
a flour merchant and related to the Hay
emeyers, is the husband of Clara Morris
whose general manager and agent he ia.
ALFRED Follen, a nephew of Mrs. Frank
Leslie, is Maud Changers husband, bu.
suit for divorce is pending between
them. William Perzel is the husband
of Marie Prescott. None of these men
are heard Of There identity is entirely
merged in that of their more gifted
wives

France is contracting new loan for
j $50, 100000. She owes nearly S. DOC, 0Oo,-
600, and it is becoming rather serious
question as to whether the amount has
not become too large to be controlled.
Her government expenditure, including
that of the immense standing army and
the payment of interest, reached last
year the sum of about 81 ,0OO, OOO, 600, or
four times that of the United States.
If there were no other cause of discon-
tent in France, this burden would be
sufficient to cause disquietude.

Capt. lawson OF the Twenty.8fth in
fantrJ q. 8. A., at the request of Coy.
Hubbard, and in compliance with special
order, No. III from headquarters depart
ment Of Dakots, has submitted areport Of
his observation while in camp with the sec.
ond regiment at Camp Hubbard. New Ulm,
in the month of July last.
BE speaks in terms of praise of the sight Sc
lected for the camp at New UIm. He says
the company drills were fair in the manu-
a! and company movements, and that two
OF the companies, namely, A and B did
quite we'll in the skirmish drill on several
occasions. The battalion drills were good,
considering that five of the companies were
new troops, having been organized since
their last annual encampment. These COM
panies were never in camp before. What
these new companies needed most was
thorough drill in the ''school OF the SOL
der" as it would teach the men to be
steady in the ranks, and improve their SOL
dierly appearance.
Capt. Lawton compliments Col. Bobletter;
says target practice was not very good; dis
cipline was fairly maintained; the person
mel first class, etc. The report closes as
follows:
mendations that I thought proper, I
would respectfully submit the following:
First--That all the old rifles now onShand
of the so cali"er, b turned in and replaced
by the As callber, with safety notch; that
captains of companies see that the arms are
properly cared for, and, if possible, an
armory provided for each company.
Second-That both officers and men be
required to pass physical examination be-
fore they are accepted in the service of the
state.
Third-That but one place of encampment
be used for all troops at the annual encamp-
ment. This will save the trouble ana ex-
pense of shipping camp equipage from one
encam pment to another.
Fourth-That before going to their next
annual encampment the articles of war, or
so much of them as relates to soldiers du-
ty, and by which all soldiers are governed
when in the service Of their couotry, be
read to each company.
Ffth-That soEie dress hat be adopted
for all mounted officers.

Murderand Lynching In Georgia.
Brainridge, Georgia Special TELEGRAM.
Aug. 12.-Joseph Tulford has been lynched
for the murder of his wife, and one Of two
negroes whom he hired for $1.60to assist
him in the foul deed shared similar fate.
The hideous tragedy exercises the entire
people of southwestern Georgia. The $3.50
paid by Tulfold to Harry Bradley and Reu-
ben Robertson for their sevices in murder
ing his wife was taken from the murdered
woman's effects, and had been earned by
her with her needle during which time she
was confined to her be6. It is also learned
that the lynched murderers carried gourd
and bucket of water to the creek
where they sunk the body, set
the bucket on the bank, threw the gourd
into the creek, and suspended the dead
woman's bonnet from limb near the bulk
ct in order to create the impression that
she had committed suicide. When Full
ford was shown the blood-stained body OF
his murdered wife as it lay in the creek, he
attempted faint exhibition of grief and
said he would not have had it happened
for S.. 1t is now rumored that Fniford's
father is a party to the crime. If the rumor
develops into truth he will withou doubt
share the fate of his accomplices.
