Personal.-"Lieut. Charles B. Gate
wood aud wife, says the Albuquerque
(New Mexico) Democrat of the 18th
inst, "arrived from Fort Stanton
Monday night and are domiciled at
the San Felipe. This is the plain,
modest and unassum1ng but truly
brave man who ventured into Geron-
imo's camp at the risk of his own life.
Such men as Lieutenant Gatewood do
not turn up every day. The gentle
man was promoted to the position of
aid-de camp on Gen. Miles staff for his
bravery. He will be stationed at
Albuquerque for the present."

Mineral Product of the United
States, 1SS5.-We have received a
condensed statement of the mineral
production of the United States in
1885, taken from advance proof sheets
of a report shortly to be issued by the
United States Geological Survey.
Under the heading of "Coal" the fol,
lowing statement is made:
The total commercial product of coal of
all kinds in 1885, exclusive of that con-
sumed at the mines, known as colliery con-
sumption, was 95, s34, 705 long tons, valued at
S152,915,10s, OF this 32,265, 421 long tons
were Pennsylvania anthracite, valued at
$72, ,274, 544 while of other coais, including
bituminous, brown coal, Ignite, and small
lots of anthracite produced outside of Penn
sylvania, the production was 63, ,569, ,2S4 long
tons, valued at ssO,64O, ,564 at the points OF
production. The total production including
colliery consumption was: Pennsylvania
anthracite 34,22S54S long tons, all other
Goals Ga, ,S40,G6S long tons, making the total
absolute production of the coal mines of the
United States 99,O69,216 long tons, valued as
follows: anthracite, s76,671 94s; bituminous
Ss2, ,347, ,648; total sl59O19,596 The total
production Gncluding local consumption) OF
anthracite was 1,052, 1872 tons in excess of that
of 1884, but its value was $40, 800, 1856 greater
The total production of bituminous coal was
s,ss9,S71 tons less than in 1884, but its value
was 81, ,930, $50 greater. The total production
of coal of all kinds shows net loss in tonnage
of 7,S37,O7 long tons compared with that Of
1884, but gain in value Of SIS, PSI ,O1S, the
increase in value being due to an average in
crease of 25 cents per long ton. The tota
value is about the same as that of 1885.
The report proposed will be the
third volume of a series known as
"Mineral Resources" prepared by the
division of Mining Statististics and
Technology.

The American Boys Opinion.

From the Boston Traveller.
There was a Sunday-school teacher.
and her class was composed Of d good.
ly number of average small boys.
The other Sunday the lesson was upon
the Babylonian captivity, and the
teacher had done her best in prepar-
ing the lesson SO as to attract and
hold their attention. This is not al
ways an easy matter in some Of the
Old Testament historical lessons, and
so the teachers energies were directed
toward making tho story life-like aid
realistic to her young pupils. Now
just suppose, boys" she began, that
some great army was to come here
and take fathers and mothers and
you yourselves prisoners, and carry
you off to a strange land and make
you work as slaves, and try to make
you believe in their religion instead OF
your own" ETC., etc. As her vivid
imagination enlarged upon the picture
she was pleased to notice that the
BOYS looked interested and thought
full, and that sundry mischievous
kickings and p~unchings had ceased;
but her satisfaction quickly ended as
one patriotic urchin, amid the smiles
of his comrades, exclaimed: "Yessum;
'twould be kinder rough; but there
amt a nation on the earth that's big
enough to do It," y
