The gold production Of the United
States has ateadily declined from $45,-
OOO, 900 IN 1877 to SOS, 900, 900 in 1883.
This is inst about equal to the Austria
liam output, which has varied little in
the past ten years. The yield of the
Russian mines is slowly declining.
The only countries that are increasing
their gold yield sre Colombia and Ven
ezuela. A single mine in the latter
country turned out bullion last year
worth 81, 900 ,000, and there is Z be-
lief that there would be great devel-
opments we're it not for the terribly un-
settled condition Of the government.
which is continually threatened with
revolutions.

CATO FOR HIGH LICENSE.

An election was held in the town of
Cato on Tuesday to fix the license for
the coming three years. The election
was held in Clark's Mills and 226 votes
were polled of which 1876 were for a
license fee of $500. This gives the high
license advocates majority of SO. Quite
large number of the Germans voted for
high license, and the Norwegians quite
generally. The Irish were divided but
q N ,iority of them were in favor of a
S400 fee. 1t was expected from the first
that the vote would be quite close, and
the result was not wholly unexpected.

"LOST AND FOUND"

One of these gauzy things which
women waste time upon and call 'fancy
work" When they are finished they are
thrown over the back of chair with q
couple of pins stuck in them and always
get stuck on to fellows back. Or you
find one of them on pillow and you are
expected to take the thing off before
lying down. One of these things went
astray lately in company with another
which has only little of the fancy work
on it as yet. A good Samaritan picked
the things up and doesn't know what on
earth to do with them. Will the loser
como around and take the stuff away and
be paid for her trouble?

The Business Mems Association is
now considering proposition Of the
Royal Sewing Machine Co. to establish

invented and moneyed man Of Provi-
dence, II. l., interested himself to the
extent of manufacturing few Of the
| machines with a view of testing their
merits fully. He became satisfied that
it was q first class machine and proceed
ed to put up building to be used as a
factory. Just after the work began be

of his estate the patent and tools were
purchased by the parties who now pro.
pose to locate their factory IN the west.

consultation with the Business Mems As
ISOLATION. A committee consisting of
Mess. Fliegler, Sedgwick, Rahr, Richter
and Paine was appointed to investigate
the matter and report. The machine
has been fully tested and pronounced
superior to anything else manufactured.
| It's superiority consists mainly in work
! ing button. understanding which any
other machine will not do without extra

MEssRs. JOHN HAYS, of Tiffany, and
Jesse Ring, al Idaho miner of consider
able experience, while prospecting this
week in the town of New Haven, claim
to have discovered a silver mine with
millions in it. In a gulch in the western
part of the town near the st. Croix line
they came upon what they believe to be
a pre- historic mine, as evidences were
visible of previous workings, such as
quite extensive excavations, rude smelt-
ing Debris, stone axe, etc. What is
thought to be rich silver bearing ore was
also found, and the gentlemen claim to
believe that they have struck hon21za
indeed. Mr.. Hays exhibited specimens
of the rock in this city Thursday, and
says he proposes to take immediate steps
to ascertain the exact length, breadth and
general scope of bis find.
