"worked-Out" Placers.

Helena Mining Review: A paragraph on
another page. republished from thecolumns
of a state exchange develops the fact that
the taiiings from placers worked in early
da ys in Montana are being worked over.
This is by no means an innovation, but it
poes to evidence the fact that many are
less ambitious for gain than they were in
the halcyon days OF gold mining in the then
territory. Even the despised "China dig

remuneration for q days work. Tim was

verv lowest. $40 q day to the man" were

with the advent OF railroads lassening the
cost of mining supplies and the necessaries
NJ life. and the production at home OF all
the cereal and vegetable products necessary
for ones existence, there has been a grad
ma, reduction of wages, and to-day from
S3, 80 to $500 is regarded as good pay.
The hardy miners, delving in the bowels OF
the earth, and from whose toll Mnntanas
output OF precious metals eads that OF
any state or territory in the Union, re-
cei We the first mentioned sum. Many OF
those lei are married and have families
denendent upon them, but by industry and
frnoality they have succeeded in many in
stances in purchasing the home in which
thev live and out OF the sum they receive
for their work 10 the mines they contrive

cordance with their manner OF living.

preached from Amos vi. J: "Woe to
them that are vt ease iu Zion" The
sermon was forclbly delivered and took
effect upon every heart. 1t will not soon
be forgotten. The singing by the choir
of said church was an important feature
OF the rvice, and was highly appre-
ciated.
The collection was taken by companies,
Rev. l. b. Cooper commanding the visi-

conducted by Rev. j. H. Scott, pastor Of
Haven NJ. E. Church, West Wilmington,
who preached an able and instructive
sermon from Rom. 1-16, "For | am not
ashamed of the gospel of Christ, &c"
aud truly we were not ashamed OF the
gospel as it was delivered to us. The
choir OF Haven, led by Mr.. Ward, aud
with Miss Lewis organist, certainly rem
dered excellent music and our hearts
were made glad with their melody. The
captains again took their positions and
he contest began, Rev. j. II. Scott COM
manding the visitors company, assisted
by Rev. Cooper. The friends from
Haven chapel contributed literally, ami
