The Snow Storm,
Lightly and Whitley

Lightly and whitely
AS wheat from the grain,
1hickiy and qnickly
As thoughts through the brazil,
50 fast and SO dunab
DO the snow fakes come;
swift swi4e as the lays drop
From glad poet-lips,
Soft soft as the days drop
from Times fnger-tips.
On SO many, so many,
Yet no sound from any.
Oh, so tast, oh, SO fast,
ct no track where they passed.
Oh, so fragile, SO frail,
Yet no force can prevail
10 speed them or stay them.
M prayer can out weigh them.
. They fall where they must,
Through the fathomless gray,
And bring to earths dust
What OF heaven they may.

Waiting and Winning,

"1t don't matter so much now,
grandma" said Aileen, drying the
tears that had sparkled on her cheeks
like dew drops on a rose. "Of course,
it is very silly for me to cry, but I
couldn't help it, just at Grst''
"But what is the matter, my pet?'
said old Mrs. Harrington, soothingly.
She had found Aileen coiled up in
the deep embrasure Of the window.
where the winter sunset was strained
through in deep hues of crimson and
amber, crying bitterly.
The Harrington family were ambi-
tious people. They had come to Vir-
ginia and purchased, at merely nom
inal price, the fine old mansion that
had once belonged to luxurious plant
or, long since dead. Mr.. Harm gton,
who had been contented to raise hum
ble corn and pumpkins in the valley Of
the Connecticut River, now devoted
himself to the more aristocratic crop
of tobacco.
Mrs. Harrington, who had been
notable Yankee housekeeper, hired
two negro women to do the housework,
and cultivated society; and the three
Misses Harrington forgot the days Of
factory work and honest district-sch
teaching in the gentilities of VALLEY

The old lady alone remained true to
her colors.

THE DECLINE I'm SILVER.
Its Ruinous Effect ON silver Mining
Communities.


Grave alarm exists throughout the min
ing districts Of Montana over the rapid
decline OF silver. The r-Mountain
estimates that so. 900 people In the Terri
tory are dependent on the mining in
dustry and cognate enterprises, including
merchants, farmers and mechanics. The
recent depreciation Of 10 cents per ounce
in silver represents the profits Of the min
ing companies, which will have TO close
down unless q reaction occurs. Lead
and copper mining, in which silver is an
important co-product, are also seriously
affected.
The Glendale works. employing 1000
men, will shut down on the 18th. The
Alice. Moulton, Lexington and Wickes
works, and many other great enterprises,
which for years have paid heavy dividends,
and employ thousands OF men, cannot
run il the present depression in the silver
market continues. A general paralysis OF
business will result unless q change
speedily occurs.
Butte is a substantial city OF $4,000
people, entirely dependent oil mining,
5000 miners being employed. The copper
smelters will continue In operation, but
with decreased profits. The silver mills
Of Montana represent an investment of
$40, 000, 900, and the mining machinery as
much more. The silver product OF the
Territory the current year, estimated ct
$12, 900, 900, will be suddenly cut short,
aud fully $4,000 miners thrown out of
employment.

What AN Exchange Has to shy OF
Present Devices, Etc.
Virginia Enterprise, Aug. 4.


Virginia Enterprise, Aug. 4.
Commenting upon the recent articles
published in this paper relative TO present
safety-csge devices and important sug'
gested improvements, the Eureka SEN
TINEL says: alt occurs to this scribe that
some Of the improvements suggested
originated several years ago with Sandy
McMartin, formerly of Gold Hill, but now
in fhe employ Of the Eureka Consolidated
Company. At the time they were made
by SANDY" they were discussed by the
Enterprise, Gold Hill News and several
scientific newspapers published In Eastern
cities, as well as by prominent Comstock
mining men. He failed to get any Of The
improvements patented, and as Q result
others are using this thunder as their
own"
The true facts In this matter are simply
this: The present safety device in general
use, consisting Of pairs OF eccentric
toothed wheels or clutches, intended to
firmly grip each side OF the guides In the
shaft on the breaking Of the cable and
thus prevent the cage from falling. was in
use in the mines of Cornwall. England,
years before the Comstock was discovered.
II was first used on the Comstock at the
shaft of the old Potosi Mining Company.
and the writer Of this rode on the cage
with said safety attached March ~. 1865.
Subsequently we saw the same device
much improved In style, strength and ef-
feotiveness by Sandy McMartin. head
blacksmith Of the Grown Point mine, and
put into practical use in the ehaft Of that
mine. There seems to have never been
any patent on this device or any improve
ment thereon.
Another safety device. consisting OF q
pair of stout chisel pointed bars, made to
shoot out at zach side Of the cross-head Of
the cage on the breaking of the cable and
dig solidly into the guides. was tried at
the old Savage works, above B street. but
finally cast aside as being inferior to the
other device above described.
A device which will positively prevent Q
cage from falling when an unclutched reel
or q long piece Of broken cable, thrashing,
tearing and dragging down the shaft.

Loss of Cattle.

According to the international Live
Stock Journal, the loss of cattle IN the
trail this season Is without parallel in the
range stock business. The range is
strewn with carcasses. This has resulted
from several causes. The herds were IS o
rule in poor condition for starting. The
long drought made grass and water short,
and the general occupation of the range
leaves but little room for travelling cattle.
The occupants of the range along the trail
have thrown every obstacle in the way,
and the owners of herds have found great
difficulty in crossing the political bound
airy lines.
