A portant factors that has aided in its growth and
prosperity the famed Anaconda mine, the property
of company in which 1Iaggin 4 Tevis, the Califor
MIA mlonircs and miners have the largest interest.
The mine is located in hill which lies northeast of
Butte, and is part Of the great copper belt that half
circles the city. Adjoining the Anaconda the east
is the St. Lawrence, which is companion mine, and
which IS certainly rich in metal the Anaconda, but
which has not been extensively worked. The Ana
conela purchased in 1881 ~ Marcus DAILY, for $,-

been the manager and to his knowledge and expert
is concccy due the wonderful works, that stand
unrivaled in the history Of copper mining in this
country.
There arc two thrcc-compartment shafts--onc on
feet deep, and the latter $50 feet, it that depth
being Il level with the 800 foot station of the Ana
contl. On all the levels between the third and eighth

done, but this is inconsicrablc compared with the
vast field that remains to be worked There the

statement with the that the hoistng

worked to their full capacity, and that ship

while there must be big holes in the mnc there is far
metal remaining than has yet been touched
Everything in and about the mine indicates the magni-

The Double Hook Puzzle.

The "doube hook" puzzle has
made Its appearance and bids fair
to shortly create as much excite.
ment as the "ffreen puzzle7 did.
The Philadelphia Press tells how
the "double hook' puzzle origi-
mated. 1t says: "John Dempsey,
a house painter, Of Atlantic City,
is the discoverer of the diabolical
double horse shoe toy that has
amused and tormented every one
who has beeu lured into trying to
get them apart. He tells his
story 'We use that sort OF hook,
double one, to hang our paint
pots on when we are painting from
a ladder. One day in putting my
hooks into a bag to carry them
home a couple OF them got caught.
Well, as they we're of no use to
me unless I could separate them, |
sat down and worked to get them
apart. | must have spent half an
hour twisting and turning the
hooks and tugging and pulling,
when suddenly, without any effort,
they untangled themselves. This
seemed so strange to me that |
tried to put them together and
succeeded. then showed the
trick to some friends of mine at
Atlantic City, where | live. About
three months after that | was do
ing some work at the Brighton,
and at noon | showed this trick to
fellow while one of the guests
was looking over my shoulder.
Well, what does this guest do but
pack his trunk, take the next train
tor New York, and now they are
turning them out at the rate OF
10000 a minute, and | never made
a cent out OF it,"

A Popular Superstition.

Among beliefs current among
sailors in our own country Is the
notion that it Is unlucky TO turn
loaf upside down after helping
oneself from it, the idea being that
for every loaf so turned a ship VIII
be wrecked. 1t Is also SAID that II
Loaf parts in the hand while be-
ing cut, it bodies dissensIons IN the
famllv-the separation Of husband
and wife. Again. 1t has long been
widespread belief that the where
abouts of a drowned body may be
ascertaned by floating loaf OF
bread down "A stream, when 1t VIII
stop over the spot where the body
is.
A curious account OF body thus
recovered near Hull appeared
some years back in the Gentle
mans Magazine. "Atter diligent
search had been made in the rlver
tor the child, to no purpose, two
penny loaf, with a quantity OF
quicksilver put into 1t, was set
floating from the place where the
child was supposed, to have fallen
in, which sleered its course down
the river upward of half mile,
when, the body happening to lie
on the CONTRARY side OF the river,
the loaf suddenly tackled about
and swan across the river, and
gradually sank near the child,
when both the child and the loaf
we're brought up with the grapplers
ready for the purpose.
A correspondent of Notes ana
Ouies maintains that it Is a
scientific fact that loaf and quick
silver indicates the position of the
body, as the weighted loaf is
carried by the current just as the
body Is. This practice, too, pre-
walls on the continent; and IN
Germany the name of the drowned
person is inscribed on the piece OF
bread while in France loves con
secrated to st. Nicholas, with a
lighted wax taper IN them, have
generally been employed for that
purpose.

Ten K iIIed, Thirty Wounded

The st. Louis express, passing
st. George, Ont, east bound about
six o'clock Wednesday, Feb. 2Ith,
went through the bridge just east
of the station. 4 broken tie on
the engine caused the rails to
spread and the first passenger car,
the Pullman car aud the dining
car went through the middle sec
ton OF the bridge. The Pullman
car, containing the most passengers
was thrown clear off the bridge,
turning completely over and light
ing right side up. The dining
car stood on end against a pier,
and the passenger car remained on
the bridge, having stripped ahead
