can only be prospected by large capital
which can only be done when a market is
assured. 1t is said that the Sunrise
mine alone could soon prepare for a regu-
lar output of several hundred tons daily.
A summary of the general quality of
the ore of the district as shown by the

in phosphorus and no sulphur, copper or
%titannic, and these show the ores to be fit
not only for the manufacture of Bessemer
steel by themselves, but that they may be
mixed with other ores in themselves too
high so hat the mixture will contain
less than the Bessemer limit in phosphor-
Gus.
The report closes with an extract from
a letter written by Mr.. G. NJ. Davidson
of Chicago. commenting very favorably
upon the Hartville iron ore as compared
with the Lake Superior ores, and giving a
comparative llhl Oh auhlyeehs
1t has been neglected to say that the
writer lays emphasis upon the fact that

been made indirectly in the search for
copper ore.
The report is accompanied by two
maps 20x26 inches in size. Map 3! shows
the location of the mines with reference
to the government surveys and the Platte
river. Wendover is also shown upon it.
Map 2 shows the geology of the district
Immediately about Sunrise park and the
iron deposits as far rs they have been de-
veloped. A section across the park is
also shown.
Both maps are handsomely drawn aud
lettered and reflect great credit upon
Messrs. II. Won Wedella and Frank Bond,
who made them. The report itself is
handsomely gotten up and the type writ
ing is rarely perfect as the copy of the
manuscript contained many technical
words.

The Latest Feminine Frnnd.

Two young and pretty women en-
tered a Broadway car, each carrying
in her arms a little parcel in the most
tender and motherly fashion. So so
licitous were they over their respective
parcels that a lullaby seemed almost
bursting from their lips. They were
not nurse girls, so they must be mo
theirs, although it was apparent that
they were young mothers, and very
handsome ones withal. Half a dozen
men jumped up t Offer them seats.
The girls giggled as they sat down
and no wonder, for che bundles they
carried in such a motherly fashion had
been deity improvised, under a sud
den inspiration, to represent babies.
There was little of them except crook
of the arm and a lace handkerchief to
cover a supposititious babe, but enough
to deceive poor, trustful man. The gig
gle was general, for the girls had OBJ
tanned seats on a new and original
plan.-New York World.

to carry him belowdo the doctor. Pat
picked him up, and carrying him of an.
other ball, unknown 70 Pat, carried of

Pat it was no use carrying the man to
the surgeon, for his head was off.
"By my sowi," said Pat, 1.-THE fellow

anecdote concerning him which is scarcely
receiving the wide circulation it deserves
is the following: On the return trip from
Boston liter the delivery of his last great

place in the South and in response to i'm
%portunities he made brief speeches. As
he was even then suffering severely a

Florida and Lemons.

Florida will soon be the greatest
lemon growing country in the world.
Lemons weighing a pound each are
common in Florida, and along the
banks Of Caloosahatchie there is a sin
gle tree which bears 5000 lemons,
many of which weigh a pound each.
But, except for show, such large lem
ons are Of little value, as they are
r grained and PUPPY. The best
lemons are grown on poor soil and for
that reason they are a very profitable
crop. This country more
lemons every year than all other coun-
tries combined, and the consumption is
constantly increasing.-New York Tri-
