The Rev. Hugh J.. Furneaux conducted
a portion Of the burial service At the late

The late Oscar +. Colby vas a native Of
Rhode Island and was born in June, 1912,
BE spent twenty years Of bis life in the

Oscar f. Colby was highly esteemed by
those who knew him best. The directors
of the New Mexico mining and milling
company had the utmost confidence in his
ability as a superintendent and highly es-
teemed him on account of bis integrity OF
character and steadGastness of purpose.
He was generous to a fault, hated shams
and loved the true and the good. Re
verses came but they did not conquer him
and to the end Of life's battle he did not
'lose his grip
Three or'four months ago Mr.. Colby was
told by his physicians that life depended
on at once giving up business. His reply
TO his wife when urged to follow the ply
siclan's advice was II will find the body OF

1t is believed that the men working under

The business Of ihis place does not seem
to have materially improved since my Inst

the market for mining properties has ap
upward look. The Nugget mine, since

so that now nine men are at work and six
more are expected TO be put 10 work BY
The Goth. John A. Miller, who is operat-
ing this mine, has leased Crane & Wrigbt's
mill and expects to start it up immediate
~. Mr.. Miller is well known as an enter.
prising man, the kind Of people We want
here and we wish him success.
The name Of the mine upon which the
strike has recently been made Is the Jim
Grow, it is owned by Messrs. Eply, Harper
& Baily. To-day J. NJ. Wright Of Silver
City has taken the mine, agreeing to sink
eighty feet Tor a One-fourth interest. 0p-
e%rations will commence Monday morning.
Mr.. Wright says il is one of the best pros
pects he has seen in New Mexico. The tx.
tension Of the jim Grow is owned by John
Crane who is getting ready for work.
There are a number Of other prospects
around camp showing up just as good.
In a matter Of a couple Of months we
think We cnn show mp a lively camp.
The old mill Of the Carlisle gold mining
company is still pounding away and the
company is preparing TO make repairs.
Mr.. Eushce, the new superintendent, Is

We have in our town two stores, one

Mr.. Goldsmith curies a very handsome
stock Tor a mining rown, and seems to be

Materials for Paper Making.

In the variety of materials utilized
for paper making. the Chinese claim to
excel all other nations. The India pa
per, called by them lehi, is made from
hemp. mulberry bark, cotton. bamboo,
rice straw, barley straw, and from the
interior membrane Of silk-wOrm CO.
coOns; sometimes the whole of the stalks
OF a year growth are used. The pulp
is mixed, after it has been prepared,
with given proportion of vegetable
gum known as hotong, and the paper is
moulded in mOulds made of the bam-
boo tilament. Those sheets, of some
sixty feet in length, which the Chinese
are said to MAKE, are supposed to be
fabricated by artfully joining several
small sheets at the moment of laying the
paper. Being too thin to bear handling
or stra n, it is mounted on vellum,
which serves as lining to it, and the
white borders of which set it off as
frame would do. These sheets are kept
in dry place. far away from any fire
heat, and are thus preserved for years
