III Ifi oiiiias ooiiiias week there we're eleven
cases of suicide in the vicinity of
Hornellsville, N. Y, which furnish
some statistics Of the causes and
methods of self-murder. Three

one quarreled with his father one

but of this latter it is proper to say
that suicide had become habit in
her family. Both the women took

The Russian corvette "Strelok"
ls still lying in the North River.
Her officers celebrated the
seventeenth birthc.ay Of the
Grand Duke Nicholas, heir to the
throne. "We expect to 60 away
within n week and to return to
Russia" said one OF the officers of
the Strelok." "There will be no
war this year, but there will be next.
Russia is not ready yet. Russia
does not want India. We have
enough land now. Military men
want a well-defned and scientific
frontier, and because we want that
England fears we are after India.
Neither nation Is in a condition to
fight now. England is less pre-
pared than we are. She will be
the agressor when the contest does
come. She will declare war We
will not. We only accept what we
regard as sure to come and we are
preparing for it"

/ Mhf -, 1000.
Danville is the name the miners
have given this noted camp in the
Percha mining district. IL ,s Two
miles south of Cave City. Mining
is being pi osecuted quite vigorous
ly, and shipping ore Is being sack
ed from every working claim. The
famous lngersoll is doing better
than ever, and the rich vein which
has been followed from the begin
ming, is growing stronger and bet
ter in quality. The tunnel is l35
feet, with all air shaft l25 feet near
the entrance. Sacking and ship.
ing ore is constantly going on.
There is a large dump of low grade
ore on the dumps which runs
from SIS to $50 in gold
and silver. This ore will not bear
shit ing farther than Hilisboio and
the repairing and starting of the
Hillsboro mill Is earnestly desired.
THIS mine embraces Il group of
four claims. The extension OF the
"lngersoll' extends squarely
through the mountains, and is
true tissure vein. On the opposite
si3e the ore is tho sans fine horn
silver as in the main tunnel. A
good vein of grey copper is also
shown up, which, runs high in sill

grado ore awaiting treatment. This
ore runs high in both gold and sill
yer for home mills, but will not
bear the Shipping rates to Denver |
and other points.
ID. Pontious has a splendid claim
above the "Ingersoll," but as that
gentleman was accidently disabled
some time since, work is not being
prosecuted. He has l25 feet OF
work completed and although the
vein has not materially wldened,
yet the prospect is most iattering
and the ore Is exceptionally good.
The ore will run IL ounces in gold
and some silver.
What the people are clamoring
for here, as elsewhere, IS milling
facilities and wagon roads. There

mill is what our mining interests
