The Vanderbilt's Wealth.

The combined wealth OF the Van
derbilts amounts to S274, 900, 900, and
the estimated income from 1t per an
NUN is Si3,s64, 400. No other single
family in the world is so rich. III kept
in tact the total fortune will at the
end OF twenty-five years almost reach
81 900. 900, 900, and this result will be
attained by the simple aritbmetical
progression OF compound interest.
The rapid increase Of the Vanderbilt
millions clearly shows how money be-
gets money.
IL the combined Vanderbilt wealth
were all in one-dollar bills the area OF
paper would be just equal 10 the
amount OF white paper required TO

World. II the bills were joined end to

miles, or in other words, would go n

around the globe at its greatest cir

A Virginia Traveller.

While travelling in Virginia some
time ago with a doctor we came upon
an old colored man who was standing
by mule hitched to an old two wheel
vehicle. Dis mule am baulked'
boss said the old man, ''an' I'll jis
glib dollah to de man what can start
i'm"
i will do It for less than that, un-
cle." said the doctor. He took his
case from the carriage and selected a
small syringe, which he filed with
morphia. He went to the side Of the
mule and, quickly inserting the sy-
ringe in his side, pushed the contents
into the animal. The mule reared
on his hind legs, and giving an aston
ished bray, started down the road at
a breakneck speed. The aged colored
man gave a look of astonishment at
him. and with loud whoa y started
down the road after the mule. In
the course of ten minutes we came up
to the old man in the road waiting
for us. The mule was nowhere in
sight.
Say, boss" said the darkey, ''how
much you charge for that stuff you
put in dat mulef"
''Oh, ten cents will do" laughingly
replied the doctor.
well, boss, heab is twenty cents.
Squirt some of that stuff in me.

THE BETTER CHANGE.

The road that has no turning
Make travellers sick with yearnins;
To hearts where sorrows enter
Come joys that sweetest sing;
A world without a winter
Can never know a spring.
Mans hope no fear can fetter
Where best may yet grow better;
Faith builds no walls OF granite
Where time is but begun,
And life, a changing planet,
Runs round changeless sun.
o bliss OF expectation!
Oh sweeter revelation
Beyond these fading pleasures,
Beyond these falling tears,
Where loves new-given treasures
Grow never old with years!
Above all harm and hating,
Through pain OF want and waiting,
Comes holy comforts wooing.
In words OF heavenly breath,
This grief is not undoing.
IhlS dying Is not ucaJu.
Faiths martyrs, loves annointed.
Hopes toilers disappointed,
Shorn lambs to shelter slumber
From earth's oppression passed
All, with Gods star-crowned number,
Shall find their need at last.
To hold that future firmer
Is wise to do, nor murmur
Because its entrance only
Lies thr II = the N Drt1l gate.
This soul cannot be lonely
Where friends so many walt.
Deaths deluge boundless swelling,
May drift this transient dwelling,
When fears foreboding raven
Hath flown scross the sea,
The dove of peace my haven
VIII find, and come TO me.
And shall rest securely
At anchor there, and surely
Gods hand will break my prison,
And my heaven shall view
When, for children risen,
He maketh all things new.

Our reference, in last weeks BELT, 10 the Russell hxiviation process for the reduction of low grade silver eres, has awakened an interest in the sab. ject, aud the problem of how to put life into silver mining in Globe Dis. trict is recelving thoughtful attention. The question as to which of several processes for the reduction of silver is best adapted to the ores of this dis trict should not be difficult to deter mine. We believe that sufficient home capital could be secured for the erection of works, of moderate cost, provided cur citizens were reasonably satisfied that any distinctive reduction process could be successfully employed here, and that ores could be had in sufficient quantities to sustain works of twenty tons, CT more, capacity,
 We make the following suggestions. Let meeting of those interested in the subject be called, and sum of money subscribed sufficient to employ two competent men to examine the most promising low grade lodges Tn this vicinity, make careful estimates oi tue quantity of ore each mine could be relied upon 10 yield, and obtaln samples from each. Then, in the event of tho report as to the ore sup ply being satisfactory, the several samples to be sent to reliable reduc- ton works, which make speciality of tegtins ores, and their opinion ob- tained as to tue best process to be used Tn tlerr reduction. When these points lave been determined, then plans for the necessary works can be drawn up, investigation made as 10 what portion of the required machinery can be se- cured here, and what wall have 10 be purchased new, and ibe cost of the same. All these nolnts satisfactorily settled 1t will then be In order to take steps toward the organization of a company to build and operate the works.

On Tuesday night between ten and eleven o'clock our citizens were again aroused from their slumbers by the fire alarm, when it was discovered that the Riordan Mercantile establishment in Milton was in flames. The citizens of Flagstaff and Milton turned out and rushed enmass to tEe scene of the con- aagration, and seen learned that the building was too fay gone to be saved. They then turned tbeir attention to the buildings near ty, and by heroic work saved the residences of r. W. Sisson and D. M Riordan, and the mill company's offices and commissary by applying the heavy hose of the mill company. The A. < F. railroad com pany furnished an engine of water which aided materially in saving the above mentioned buildings. We are informed that the house and stock were worth from forty to forty-fiye thou. sand dollars, with an insurance cover ing Sl5,00o. Scarcely anything was saved. Cause ot the fire is unknown This great less is deplored by all, as it falls heavily upon the company Flagstaff Democrat.
