Utah Mines and smelters.

There is no part of the United
States at present which has more pro-
ductive mines than Utah Territory.
Several of her mines are wonderful bull
lion producers, as our weekly account
of bullion shipments indicates The
horn silver: Ontario, Hanauer, Christy
ana a number of others send in their
thousands every day. On the LIST inst.
the ontario Company paid its round one
hundredth dividend in New York, being
% cents share and amounting to
Slo,OOO. Total dividends this year, $780,
O0O; total to date, So, 100000 The Horn
Silver mine is one of the greatest in the
world, the amount of bullion it is pro-
duclng being wonderful, even In rich
bullion producing region.
South of Salt Lake City, from seven
to fourteen miles, are the great smelters
OF the Territory, to which many of the
ores mined in distant parts of Utah,
Idaho and Montana come for reduction
BY local writer, Sandy, farthest south
of all, has been called the Swansea of
Utah, but since the cessation of work at
two. smelters there this would seem to
be an extravaganza appellation, but the
entire region we have just included may
well take that name. The Utah Central
and the Denver q Rio Grande railroads
each run tracks to the smelters, so that
these institutions have some advantage
from railroad competition; but they
complain that there is such discrimina-
ton in freight rates by the different rail
road companies in Utah that eastern
smelterS in Omaha, Kansas City and
Denver are given undue advantages in
the competition for the ores in this
Western market. But be that as it may,
it is certain that mine-owners derive an
advantage from the competition of the
smelters about Salt Lake. There are
three which run entire'y on custom
ores, and each is stimulated to give the
highest price permissible, in order to
get the bueiness.-Htniitg and Scientific

A Tax on Bachelors.

A tax Is proposed on bachelors in the
next French budget. The preamble
reads, Considering the growing de-
crease in the population in France, it
has become necessary to impose a tax
on all single persons over-years of age
of the male sex" Some of the causes
of this decrease are that no Frenchman
under twenty-five can marry without
the consent OF his parents This con-
sent is invariably withheld if the girl is
portionless. On the other hand, if the
girl be well provided for her kinsfolks
will not only let her marry unless the
mans marriage portion be in proper
ton to hers, but they will effectually
prevent all possibility of her making
the acquaintance of a poor man. In
France an invitation to private dinner
or ball is generally preceded by an in
quiry into the financial position of the
recipient of such an invitation, which,
for thoroughness, viii heat anything
and everything detectives in London or
Paris could accomplish.-LN. I. sun.
