Bditor RBTIRPArsK;
Imay a. well say few words about
mining and prospecting in early times.

inally attracted the hardy adventurers to
Montana. Such were the dIggings Of Al

Gulch Diamond City, the last named

dust In six years, while the other two were
equally as good, and many others too
numerous 10 mention. Bu,these immense.
ly rich deposits were soon worked out"
and then some few far.sighted and more
intelligent Of the miners began 10 think
about and to ask themselves, where did
all this gold come fromT Getting some
vague idea into their heads that "it must
have come down from the mountains
above" they set out to find the source
from whence II had been brought. This
was the beginning Of quartz prospecting.
Montana was at that time considered dry
country. The "prospecior" usually takes
with him pick and hammer combined, q
rubber blanket, salt, a little -four, frying
pan, a gun to kill his meat with, and some
times postal and mortar, az, and shovel.
A good "prospector" has both eyes open,
and from the time he first strikes the foot

quartz he may expect TO find scattered
over the surface Of the hills These he

indications of mineral. II 30 he most

ENTRANCE TO THE BANK.

AS there is plenty TO eat and drink and
a good wine cellar to choose from, it is
not considered bad post for even an
officer, and it often happens that late
passers by can hear music and songs
issuing from the building, for be it
known also that the secretary, super
intendent and various other officials
with their respective families are COM
PEELED TO live in the bank. They form
n set OF their own, and the young
ladies give delightful little musicales.

than Fl, 900 is issued. The press is
capable OF producing these at the rate
of 5000 an hour. There are other
presses which print 60 and fl0 notes.
The number and date of each note are
printed at both ends of ii, and as the
separate halves are thus easily identi-
fled it is no uncommon thing in Eng
land TO cut "A note in half and tran smit
each by separate mails or in different
envelopes. The paper on which the
notes are printed Is made at a special
mandatory. About $4,000 reams are
supplied to the bank yearly and not
the smallest scrap of it is wasted.
The bank Of England is the banker
of the government, for here are receiv-
ed the taxes, the interest of the nation
al debt paid and the exchequer bust
ness transacted. Considerably over a
million is paid into the bank daily in
the shape of notes. When cashed, a
corner is torn off, and this now value

Pretty Women. Bless En-.

A Pennsylvania young lady while
standing before mirror smiled at the
reflection of herself in the glass. In
stead of seeing her beautiful counter
part return the smile she beheld a
grinning image with the bright side OF
it's face twisted out of shape. In re-
pose her face is now as beautiful as
ever. but when she smiles herexpres-
sion is hideous. Here is an opportuni-
ty for the moralist To get in a little es-
say on the evil effects of vanity. But
it would be unSind as well as quite USE
less. Pretty women, bless them! are
here TO be admired, and IL men were
prohibited from SO doing they would
lead a very unhappy existence. There
is no objection to women admiring
themselves either. 1t is hardly right
that any woman should be debarred
from enjoying beautiful being just
because it happens to be herself. There
are some people who object to their
showing to others that they are self
conscious OF their loveliness, and there
are others who would like to have
them willing to admire other pretty
women. But these are minor points
and scarcely worth mentioning.

Little BENJAMIN .'arrisOp.

The country has been informed how
fond President Harrison is OF children
especially OF babies-says a ash
ington letter to the Philadelphia Tele-
graph. His reputation in this respect
has resulted in his having rare col
lection of photographs of babies. Near
ly every days mail brings to the white
house a number of letters inclosing
photographs Of infants. They repre-
sent babies in variety enough for a
modern baby show. The photos are
all of boy babies aud the letters an
nounce that their names are Ben jamin
Harrison Smith. Jones' or Robinson,
etc. Sometimes there are pair OF
twins. Then the name is either divi d.
ed between them or one is named after
the president and the other after the
vice-president. The other day | pick
ed up bundle OF these photos off the
mantel in the white house and counted
them. They were just few that had
been snapped together with a rubber
band. There were twenty-three of
them and two pairs of twins. They
are represented in variety of atti-
tudes and in various stages of naked
ness. They vary in apparent age from
few months TO but few days. Some
times the infants photograph is accom-
panied by that OF the mother or of both
father and mother. One infant is chew
ing the end OF an American flag. Anoth-
er is dressed in a continental uniform,
though he has TO be held in an upright
position to show it. Another has not
anything on worth mentioning, and is
making a critical examination of the
soles OF both his feet at the same time,
"a thing he accomplishes by bowling
the legs out and turning the feet in
ward. The fact of those that are seen
by the public being so ugly is explain
ed by the statement that the president
has saved out some of the best-looking
ones to keep. The others are lying
around, so that you are liable to find a
bundle of them in almost any room in
the house.

Special london Correspondence.
Westminster abbey, the house Of
commons and the bank of England are
the three great objects which the
American sight-seer has first in view
when he reaches London. England's
pantheon and the great parliamentary
buildings have much that interests the
sight-seer, but there is something
about the bank of England perhaps
its enormous wealth-that acts as n
magnet TO the tourist. A stranger in
London will have no difficulty in find
ing it. Three score and over omnibus
lines center at the famous monetary
institution. From all parts of the city
and its suburbs these omnibus lines
run. and on every one of them is paint
ed the words Bank of England"
1t is built of brick and Portland
stone, of incombustible material, one
story and without external windows.
The architecture is Corinthian from
the temple of the Sybil OF Tivoli. of
which one angle exhibits fac smile
portion. The chief cashiers offices
represent portion of the temple of
the sun and moon at Rome. The en-
trance to the bullion yard is copied
from Constantines arch at Rome, and
has allegories of the Thames and
Ganges. There are magnificent halls,
rotundas, public offices and committee
rooms, an armory, engraving and
printing offices, and an apartment for
officers and servants OF the bank.
There is plenty of room even for the
transaction of the enormous business
of the bank. At each one of the
entrances TO the building is stationed
a wonderfully costumed lackey.
A well known New York banker had
given me letter OF introduction TO
Mr.. +. May, cashier of the bank,
whose signature, by the way. is better
known than that of any other person
in the world, for on every bank OF
England note is printed a fac simie of
his name in his own handwriting, and
| may say here. furthermore, that
bank of England note is the safest
piece of paper in the world. AS a
loyal American citizen | am believer
in Uncle Sans coinage, and il is all
well enough for the United States but
there is no part of the civilized globe
where Bank of England note is not
recognized, and they can be carried so
conveniently that great many travel
ers prefer these notes TO letters OF
credit.

That was a strange spectacle pre-
sented in a New York police court the
other morning, when boy, SO small
that he had to be lifted up in the arms
of policeman before the magistrate
could see him over his desk, was call
ed to answer to two charges of bur-
glary. Urged by older boys, the little
fellow had successfully robbed a fruit
stand and then fur store. The judge
sentenced the child TO the Juvenile
asylum during his minority, when the
baby convict crawled into his mother:
arms and cried himself to sleep.
