FINANCE AND MINING
A Very Satisfactory Week in
Business Circles.
OGE AND BULLION OUTPUT.
News From Many. Mines-The Spring
AWakening-1he Money Market
mining Stocks-General

Opening out with good trade on
Monday last, owing to the presence of
our county friends, who seemed to
have reserved that day for such pur-
chaSeS as they desired to make before
returning to their homes, the week has
been thoroughly satisfactory one in
business haunts. Among the retailers
yesterday, there were many buyers, and
it is safe to assume that at the closing
OF the stores last evening the proarie-
tors were satisfied with the days re-
ce,pts. There has been no great fnan-
cial transactions, but a steady stream
of business.

Catt fgurativeIy applies the same re-
mark to the heads of the Record men,
claiming that there is every reason to
believe that gold exists there, and that
intelligent prospecting will discover it.
A nu Der of miners are at the scene.
and future developments will be awaited
with considerable interest. Specimens
of the rock are now in this city, in the
hands of the assayer. Experts soy it
is fine milling, and will go about $40 to
the ton.

The Park City Gold Strife.

Advices from the scene of the recent
strike Of gold, near Park City. are to
the effect that every indication points
to the development of a good ledge of
gold-bearing, free milling ore. The
snow in tbs vicinity is so deep, how
ever, that operations are somewhat
hindered just now.

Lead has continued on it's decline, be-
ing quoted yesterday at 81. rs, as against
SIS. l71a of a couple of week4s ago. The
metal has bsen the object of a severe
bear raid. At New YORK, all the deliy-
cries for sellers option in April were
crowded on TO the buyers at the very
opening of the month, so that some of
the weaker brethren were shaken I'D
and forced to sell. The result was that
about 600 tons of lead were sold during
the week, all the way down from S., O5
TO $l.l5. soaring the buyers and creating
a feeling OF general dIstrust. All the
larger operators, however, decline to
meet the market, and hold their stocks
hrmly IN hand. London fell away to
: ii, and offers lead for New York de-
livery at $50, duty paid. Trade at ali
poj-is is repoi TED to be yer; slack, and
conservative estimates place the falling
ofup to the present time this year, at
20 per cent. The Chicago and st. Louis
markets have sympsthized fully with
New York, and prices at both points fell
off 10 to 10 cents per hundred, under
very light service. In fact, the entire
decline of the week has been effected on
sales Of not more than 500 tons at all
points. AS result it may be imagined,
there is not much hllarlty among the
miAe-owners of this section. They are
sanguine, however, OF a rise again in the
near future.

Ours is q great silver country, so a
recently published statement, showing
the fuctuation of silver in the London
market since 1888, is interesting to US.
According to statistics recently COM
piled, the fluctuations from January
1888, TO November, 1850, vera very mar :
row, ranging from fifty eight and three
tourths pence to sixty and three
fourths pence per ounce, with an
average for the eighteen years of sixty
peDse. In November, 1850, an advance
WAS made to sixty-one and e-fourth,
owing probably to an increased demand
for the metal in the Indian trade, the
Punjuab having been annexed the year
before, and the exports to the east
were the largest ever made up to
that time, exceeding 5000, 900.
For the next twenty-five years silver
averaged about 60 pence, only touching
below 60 pence during three months of
1859. Silver reached its highest point,
touching in March and July the UMPIRE
cedented height of 6224, and averaging
about 81 for the entire year. The cur
rent event that caused the rise was the
unsettled condition of affairs in India.
The Sepoy rebellion was only put down
the wear before, and the British govern
ment, which had lent the East Indian
company FL 900 900 in 1857, made
another loan to them So, zig 500, and the
slVer exports for these two years were.
for 1856, over f16, $50 600, and for 1859
more than GA ,820.00 The only other
years when the silver export from Eng
land exceeded either of these amounts
was in 1887, when the Russo-Turkish |
var was in progress and the great |
anime was sweeping over India, when |
Il, 200, 900 was exported.

prosperity, such as has not been seen on
feet for many moons, is before US.
From Bingham comes the news that
many miners who have for several
years past been content to work for dav
wages, have leased properties, and are
going to work IN good earnest, and this
means considerable of an increase in
the amount of the output for the COM
ing summer. In Alta, the snow is vet
too deep to admit of much being done.

How to Photograph Bird..

DR.. r. w. Shufeldt suggests to orni-
biologists that they may find portable
Photographic outfits of advantage In their
studies. He finds that by the use Of the
instantaneous shutter birds may be
photographed in nearly all Of their posi-
tons. Tout here on the prairies we will
often find an old stump or stalk upon
which dozen or fifteen species Of birds
will alight during seven or eight hours on
almost any day suitable to use the camera
upon them. Now, all we have to do is
to properly set our instrument near this
point, conceal it in such a way as not to
alarm the birds, focus it sharply upon the
perch where they alight, place on your
snap shutter and fix it with a string,
and then remove yourself far enough
away 10 pull it when you have q subject
sitting to your liking. Birds that you
have wounded but slightly may be pho
tographed under the most favorable cir
cumstances; they may also DO taken sit
ting on their nests; in actual flight, how
ever swift; in pursuit of their food; in
leading about their young; indeed, the
list is almost an endless one. Rookeries
also offer admirable subjects. and a
splendid field is open at those wonder
full resorts of water birds in such places
as the Bahamas or the Alaskan coast. -

Paris Sewer Cleaning system.

II is scarcely probable that any other
city in the world will have, at least for q
long period, system of sewer cleaning
40 efficient as that of Paris. The sewers
are all constructed with that end in view,
workmen can carry ON their labors with
out STOPPING, and the bottom Is so shaped
as to facilitate the work by the different
forms of water gates. In London second
sewer or gallery Is sometimes constructed
above the main conduit by which par
tial cleaning is effected. There is not the

Tho ''point Of etiquette. I" in regard Ia
not sealing letters sent by the hand Of a
friend. Il to be considered, undoubtedly,
as settled by the usage of polite society.
And yet there are two sides to the qucs-
ton. To intrust to friend an unsealed
letter to third person Is compliment
to the friend; but why should it be
thought necessarily uncomplimentary il
the letter DO sealed2 On the other hand,
the sealing of letter may be deemed
always advisable, for one good reason at
least. The contents Of an unsealed letter
are never safe. They are safe 80 far as
the honorable friend il concerned, but
not safe in any other sense. They may
be lost from the envelope easily and in
nocently. They may be distracted
and read by the servant to whom
the. note is delivered at the
door, or by any prying individual who
may find tho missive lying on the hall
table and awaiting the owners arrival.
Especially unsafe il it to place In an I'M

value. Would any sane man send $50

Of friend or anybody whonsover? Tho

the inclosure, would DO very apt to pro-
test against this sacrifice of common

A Story OF Mefssonier.

The enterprising manager Of a Paris
theatre once called upon Meissonier and
asked him to paint drop scene for a
certain theatre and name his own terms.
"You have seen my pictures, thenf'
asked MISSIONER. "Oh, yes" exclaimed
the manager; ''but it is your name-your
name I want; it will draw crowds to my
theatre "And how large is it you wish
this curtain to be?" inquired tho artist.
"Ah, well, we will say fifteen meters by
eighteen" Meissonier took up pencil
and proceeded to make a calculation. At
last he looked up and said win imper
turbable gravity: Il have calculated and
find that my pictures are valued at 3d.
600 francs per meter. Your curtain,
therefore, will cost you just 81 GOO, 900
francs. But that is not all. II takes me
twelve months to paint twenty-five Gen.
timeters of canvas. Il will, therefore,
take me just 100 years to finish your
curtain. You should have come 10 me
earlier, monsieur; am too old for the
undertaking now. Good morning.

Hancock and Mcclellan we're not as

we're allies of the Confederacy, as
Grover Cleveland is and as every

that Office, because he must be elected
by the 1853 votes of the solid South,

was in 1860 Unless the Republican

And adds, that the following extract
from his speech needs, from him, no

distinct, and cannot be honestly
misunderstood: IF the comrades of

nounced as a political organization
