THE MINERS OF TO-DAY,


Given Way to the Dudes From the East.
Gentleman's Magazine.l
Gold mining is in many minds still asso-
ciated with -Aannel-shirted, long-booted,
gambling class Of doubtful manners, who,
with pick, shovel and pen, found fortunes in
the hill streams of the far West or of the
land of the kangaroo. But this race of
miners is rapidly becoming as extinct as the
redskin of California or the black boy of
Australia. As the superficial deposits
which attracted the pioneers were exhausted,
the aid of machinery and science became es-
sential, and new order of things began in
PRODUCING the capitalist, the chemist and
the engineer. Moreover, in their haste to
get rich, and, with their rough-and-ready
appliances, the early diggers only worked
the richest ground and passed over tons
acres-of stuff that, with modern methods,
would pay handsomely. .
To convey an idea OF the perfection which
has been attained in some of the processes
of to-day one illustration will suffice. Dur
ing quarters (three months) working last
wear Of the alluvial deposits of Daylesford,
Victoria, some 80, $50 tons of gravel were
treated and gave an average yield of 18H
grains troy Of gold from each ton of gravel.
That is to say of all this enormous mass OF
material dug up, passed through the appar-
atus. and redeposited, only one eighteen hum
dred and fourteenth part was of value, the
other 1913 parts being useless. In other
words, suppose an acre of land Is feet deep
to. be turned over, broken up to the most
minute proportions and bodily removed, in
order that it might be made to yield up q
hidden treasure in the form of fine dust, the
whole of which could easily be held in q
small coal scuttle. And this was accom-
plished presumably at cost which left
reasonable margin of profit. These results
are altogether unparalleled in any other
kind of metal mining. As q rule. the metal
or its ore forms the bulk of the mass treated.
Thus, iron often constitutes IS per cent of
the mineral, lead So to 81 per cent, copper
78 to SO per cent and silver So to SO per
cent. while the gold in the case quoted only
amounted to .000118, or little over one ten
thousandth part of 1 per cent.

square, situated between the Rues st.
Honore and the Petits Champs, facing the
R1e Castiglione in one direction and the
Rue de la Paix on the other. 1t is not a
square, for the corners are cut of, and the
sides are about 40 feet long. All the facades
are Uniform, and the ground floors present
along their whole extent series of arches,
that form the support of front of Corln-
than pilasters, and are decorated in the
center with columns and porticoes.
A HISTORIC SQUARE.
Under the Regency, the Quinquampoix
having become too small 1or the stock
Spectators, gambling was transferred to the
Place Vendome, and, as if to make mockery
of the sacredness of law, the stock brokers
did their business under the very windows
of the Minister of Justice.
Finally, however, the Chancellor obtained
the transfer of this open air exchange, and
a certain Duke, having rendered his Hotel
de Soisons, wooden booths were erected there,
which rented so well that he got no less than
800, 900 francs a year for the use of his
ground. At last the Revolution happened,
the roval statue was thrown down, and,
though the square was renamed Place des
Piques, habit preserved its old title of Ven
dome. I may say right here that there is in
the Louvre model and some fragments of
that statue. 1t shows the King in the sad
die, attended by the Virtues, who are walk
ing. The day after itwas inargurated some

do was to take down the statue of Napoleon
that stood on its top, and am very sorry to
add that there were some Frenchmen who
aided them in doing this. From that time
until 1880 the column was surmoupted by q
feur-de-lis over four feet high, and above it
was tall flagstaff on which the drapeau
blanc used to be hoisted. The 29th of July,
1880, the heur-de-lis was torn down, and the
tri-color foated from the flagstaff. Three
years later Napoleon was placed on the col
umn, not as formerly, however. in the in
sigma of imperial power, but wearing the
military uniform so well known to the
French people and to the army.
1 should have said. that the Com
munists when they tore down this
column were led BY Courbet, the famous
painter: He died leaving large fortune,
and, after a long lawsuit, his heirs were
forced to pay the cost of reconstructing it.
1t was restored in 1874, and the statue of
Napoleon, with. which the Third Republic
crowned this splendid work, represents him
in the garb of Roman Emperor.
ARIsTocRATIc MANSIONS. -,
There are some fine old private residences
hidden behind the fronts that form this
place. AT one side are the Offices and
vaults of the Credit Mobilier. A little
further along. on the same side, is the pal
ace of the Minister of Justice; it is very
large mansion with an enormous gar
den apd grand old trees, and yet
you can see nothing of it from the square.
Then at the corner, which, as I said
before, is cut of, are the headquarters of the
military governor of Paris, and next to his
house is the Hotel Bristol, one of the best in
the capital 1t is not very large, but the
Prince of Wales always stops there, and so
does friend Slavin when he is in Paris.
Just about now he is riding horseback in
Central Park with his two charming nieces,
but I am sure all three of them are wishing
themselves over here again. Across the
street.-The Rue Castiglione-is the Hotel
de Rhin, where went the other day to call
on Mr.. Belmont, ex-Minister to Spain; then
come come apartment houses, behind which
are more splendid mansions and fine parks,
and finally we get back again to the Rue
de la Paix.
Now if we retrace our steps to the Rue
Castiglione and go down that street under
its arcades and past the Hotel Continental.
we will come in few moments to the Tuil-
cries gardens. Here is the beautiful Rue de
Rivoli with this garden on one side and a
long row of arcades, reaching from the resi-
dence of Baron de Rothschild to the Place
de La Comedie Franchise, on the other. We
have made only short promenade, but it
was through about as pretty bit of Paris
as could possibly show you, and in this
walk think we have seen, or we could see
if you were here, more Americans and more
English speaking people than in any other
thoroughfare of Chere Lutece.

spirit.
Time and again have stood on the ref
uge in the Place de l'opera and looked on
the moving panorama, the splendid build
tngs and the grand monuments, especially
the Column Vendome. Back of me loomed
NJ the Grand-0pers House or National
-Academy of Music, the finest building de-
voted to theatrical purposes ever yet con-
strueted. On the right, the enormous
Grand Hotel, and the boulevard, stretching
of to the Church of the Madeleine, where the
roadway turns at a sharp angle into the Rue
Roysle, running thence to the Place de la
Concorde. On the lett, still the boulevard,
with the Press Club, the Washington Club,
the Vaudeville Thester and other famous
places, including the Pavilion de Hanover,
or Cardinal Richelieu mansion, all within
view.
AN AMERICAN STREET.
In front and to the left the Rue de Quatre
Septembre bears off to the Bourse, which I
can almost see from where stand, and di-
rectly in front is the Avenue de POpera.
When 1 came here there was no such street
as this aforementioned one, and even after
the city had commenced to tear down build
ings and make it broad avenue, it was for
three years only cul de sac that ended a
few yards down the way, at the Office of the

How One Recognized the Boots Of His
Owner-Another Instance Cited.
Zoophilist, a
The late Mr.. Eyre, clergyman, left q
dog, which was very much attached to him,
at the country house of friend while he
left England for long sojourh abroad.
After two years Mr.. Eyre returned, arriv-
ing at his friends house late at night, and
retiring without having the dog called.
Next morning, Mr.. Eyre was awakened
by the dog bursting into his bedroom and
leaping upon him with the widest demon
strations of delight.
"How on earth did he know had ar
rived?" asked the gentleman of the servant,
who brought hot water.
"Oh, sir, }" the man replied, set is the most
curious thingl As I was cleaning your
boots the dog recognized them and became
excited beyond measure, and I have not
been able to quiet him until he saw where I
was carrying them, and rushed up along
with me to your door"
A correspondent of the same English
paper relates that he gave away, at year
old, dog which he was unable to keep in
his London home. After eight years the
dog was returned to its first owner.
"The dog met me-" says the correspond
ent, "at first as a stranger, and then, with
little animated shifts OF inquiry, going
round and round me. I remained still for
a few moments, while she grew more and
more excited. At last stopped and patted
her, and called her by her name, Dee
"On hearing my voice the poor beast gave
what can only describe as scream of rap
ture, and leaped into my arms. From that
moment she attached herself to me as if she
had never lett me. and with the tenderest
devotion"

there, as in life, vice went on horseback,
while the virtues looted it.
After the campaign of 1906 Napoleon
conceived the project of erecting column
to the glory of his army. This monument,
finished in 1910. was copied after that ol

column was cast out of the bronze of !, 200

Austrians, and it was then, as it is now, a
durable monument of success and glory.
raised rather to the honor of great nation
than to that of great man. This is what
has doubtless preserved it in the midst of
many disasters, although it was
OVERTURNED BY THE COMMUNISTS.
That dreadful year, when Thiers and his
French troops were at Versailles and the
detested Prussians were still on the soil of
this country, mad men perpetrated many in.
glorious acts and one of them was the at
tempted destruction of this grand mouu-
ment When q frequenter of the Grand
Cafe used to play whist occasionally with
a man whose wife kept a large millinery
establishment at the corner of the Place
Vendome and the Rue Castiglione. BE
often told me of how he begged the mob not
to tear it down; and his wife even offered
them 1000, 900 francs if they would leave it
unmolested. But they demanded 1000, 900,
and it not being forthcoming, they accom-.
plished their vandal act. 1t was recon-
structed some few years later and the statue
of the Little Corporal still stands on its apex

a Corner ofthe Place rupted few re-
marks which an ex-managing editor was
making on the subject of music, by asking
which thoroughfare was most popular with
Americans now in Paris.
II meaD," said he, "dO any of you know
whether more of our compatriots promenade
in the Avenue de POpera than in the Rue
de la Paix, or along the boulevards?'
Thereupon differences of opinion were
heard from several persons, and while Henry
was getting ready "more of the same" we
discussed the question good-naturedly, and
it all ended with each man in the party
being satisfied that he knew as much about
it as any of his neighbors. can't pretend
to tell you what they said, but it is tolerably
easy for me to repeat some of my own ex-
pressions, and as IA hours have elapsed since
the subject was debated, perhaps I shall be
able to do so calmly and in becoming

HOW TO CONCEAL WIRES.

That IL the Greatest Problem That Con-
fronts Electricians Now.
From the Philadelphia Record.I
The greatest problem that confronts u.
is to provide for the concealment of the
electric wires. There is great danger in
concealment, but at the same time electrici-
ty is making its way as luminant into
private houses, and to expose wires in such
cases is to create an eyesore. We always
recommend that wires be exposed. Numer-
Gus attempts are being made now to de-
wise conduits for the wires which shall be
waterproof, and, at the same time, incom-
bustible.
Another point about which we require
particular care is the size of the wire that is
used to carry the current. Copper wire is
expensive, and there is a temptation to
make it very fine. Where the wire is too
small to carry the current needed heat is
sure to be generated.

reveals some curious facts about their per-
sonality. The drummer is generally pro-
fessional beat, and is always going on a
strike; the violinist is fond of drawing a
long bow, thereby continually getting in a
scrape; the trumpeter, however, is quite
sociable, as he is always ready for good
blowout; as for the futist, it is sad but true
that, besides being ljght-fngered, he must
have frequent stops during the perform
ance; while they an run up and down the
scale so much, that the only way the leader

as if he weren't hero every day and some
times twice.
Probably no monument will be erected to
his memory, and his fame may not even
survive the grave, but little Harry Wynne
is every whit as deserving as far more
famous men, whose names live as those who

at all corners of Smithfeld and Fifth at
