THE FIRE CLAY DISCOVERY
Several Mere Claims Filed-A Find
Of Gaienn Ore.

Of Gatenn Ore.
Mr.. James W. Bird engineer OF the
Columbia q Puget Sound railroad.
and four others havs. located mining
claims in township III. range east,
between Black Diamond and Frank
lin, in which are situated four veins OF
fire clay, which bave recectiy been
discovered there. The veins are close
together, and are IN width six, four,
five and four feet respectively. The
claims. each i5Cgx0U1 feet in dirHen-
sions, have been filed upon in accord
ance zifh the United States mining
laws. Mr.. Birds associates are julius
Klinker and Thomas Dyer OF Black
Diamond and William Campbell and
James Tate Of Seattle. They viii
form a company. ami will probably
work in conjunction with Mr.. /. A.
Nadeau, who has also taken up
claim In the same place. In develop
mens OF the claims.
Mr. Bird had in his possession yes
terday several specimens of the clay.
taken from the different veins. He Is
an expert In such matters. and he
says The clay r. as fine as any he has
ever seen. II Is of the proper color
and consistency, free from iron, and
viii Withstand any degree of heat.
The Washington Iron Works has
already ordered carload OF the clay,
and viii utilize the crude material in
It's furnaces. 1t is intended by Mr..
Bird and his associates To procure all
machinery necessary for the manu-
facture of fire brick. He viii leave for
the East in March for the purpose of
securing the machinery.
GALEsA ORE DISCOVERED.
Associates OF Mr.. Bird are engaged
in opening up q quartz lead, discoy-
cred by them about month since, ON
the banks Of Green river, near Palmer,
about 81 miles from Seattle. Mr. Bird
had always thought that there was
gold to be found on this side of the
Cascade mountains. and about three
months since he sent oilt several pros
pectors. They discovered this lead,
seven feet thick, and have been work
ing on a tunnel ever since. The ore is
gaiena. which bears both gold and
silver, and the specimens already OBJ
tanned are pronounced valuable. The
ore has not been assayed yet, but il
promises to show good figure.

LOTHROP VS.. KEENAN,.

Ex-Minister Lothrop is quoted as say
ing that the articles written by George
KEENAN, on the treatment and condition
of Russian political prisoners are true as
to all the facts stated, but that they give
the impression that the people of Russia
live in wretched condition of fear, cow
ering and cringing lest they, too, must
whereas, he declares, such is not the
case. Mr.. Lothrop is probably mistaken
in suppOsing that these articles have pro-
duced a general impression of that ma
ture. The prevailing idea of Russian
character, as it is disclosed through the
literature of the country and of foreign
travellers, is that the mass of the people
are stOlid and comparatively Indifferent
to political and social conditions.
The majority of the people under
any government must be at least pas
sively loyal, else that government could
not exist. No intelligent reader of Mr..
Remnants papers draws the conclusion
that the greater number, or even large
proportion, of the subjects of the Car
are ready for instant revolt or are in
clined to resist or to change the existing
order of things. That there is an ele-
ment dissatisfied with the government
and its methods, and inclined to protest
against outrages upon the rights and
liberties of classes and individuals is
proved beyond doubt by the means
taken to suppress it, and that it is extern
sive in point of numbers, if not powerful
as whole, is indicated by the prisons
crowded with suspects and the thousands
of exiles sent to Siberia yearly. A
minister to st. Petersburg, cOurted,
and feted, and surrounded only by the
officials of the government and the
aristocracy is not in position to judge
dispassionately of the social condition
of the country. He sees only the fair
side, and almost inevitably imbibes a
prejudice against any opponents of the
reigning power. AS Mr.. LOthrOp re-
luctantly admits, the Siberian exile sys-
tenn is wrong and a disgrace to the coun-
try, but careful readers of the KEENAN,
papers will 60 further, and hold the opin-
ion that the great trouble in Russia is not
with the punishment of political prison
ers, but with that something in the con-
duct of public affairs that leads so many
citizens to rise in protest-even at the
conscious risk of their lives and liber.

PAITH-CURE MEETINGS.

The case of the young man who had
such remarkable experience at faith
cure meeting in Springfield, ILL.,, is one
that must necessarily excite much in
quiry. In the first place the public gen.
orally is not very well informed as to the
character of faith-cure meetings. Faith
cure" has come to be a somewhat famil
a cure for faith as consumption cure is
cure for consumption, but healing of
diseases by faith. Just what faith-cure
meeting is, however, is not so clear. 1t
may be a gathering of those who have
been healed of their ills; it may be an
assembly of afflicted beings who are
seeking to be healed and who are
looking for the "cure" to be measured
out in required doses; it may be a meet
ing presided over by professional
''healer" who plays ON the credulity of
the people and calls the game faith.
But whichever one of these theo-
ries Is correct none explains
the presence of the young man in ques-
ton. 1t does not appear that he was re-
jOicing over the removal of any ailment,
nor that he had any of which he wished
to be rid. AS for the young woman, she
was undoubtedly affiicted-her unfOrtu-
nate and unwilling partner i'm the pedes-
trian tour would probably describe her
as possessed of the devil-but the fact
that she was permitted to walk till she
dropped, speaks i'll for the quality Of
faith supposed to be concealed about the
premises. 1t may, of course, be claimed
that the girl was in an ecstatie frame of
mind and that her seven hours walk
was merely triumph of the spirit over
the physical powers; but why young
woman in a beatifc dream should seize
upon strange young man, with
grip of iron, and make him
walk "an around the meeting
house" numberless times is left for
newspaper readers to conjecture. Per-
haps there is something in faith-cure
that affects the locomotive powers, and
perhaps the heavenly visions of even a
young woman given to frances and spir-
itual transports are made realistic and
lovely by the presence of young man.
These are important points, and in the
interest of faith, or more properly, faith
cure, ought to be settled. Until they
are and some method for checking en-
tranced maidens in their mad pedestrian
course is devised, young men who are not
prepared for a seven-hour go-as-you-
please walk will avoid faith-cure meet
