Rich Discoveries I'm Montana.

A letter received from Montana
says the north half OF that State Is ex-
cited over unexpected discoveries q
placer gold mines, quartz and silver
and galena in the mountain spurs and
hills OF the great reservation, as we'll
as the Belt mountains. One mine
near Maiden is crushing enough rock
with q twenty-stamp mill to turn out
every month 800, 900 in bullion. The
projected railroad extension from Great
Falls will, it is believed, hasten the
development OF that section into one
OF the richest mineral belts in
America. The State Mining Inspector
says over 1900 mining claims have
been located in Montana under the
mining laws.

THE ..BEAUTIFUL" SNOW
A New Song by the Laureate OF
Lassen.

The following snow song, composed
and sung to the accompaniment Of
bowling winds and falling avalanches,
by the editor Of the Lassen Advocate,
will come home to the business and
bosoms of all our people at the present
time:
The snow, the snow. the beautiful snow,
How oft we have sung that straini
But now, oh Lord, II you'll only let up
We never will sing II agsini
For the snow on the roof Ia six feet high,
And the snow in the yard is ten
oh give us one glimpse Of the clear blue
sky,
And we'll never say "snow again.
The Editors nose Is cold and blue,
And the winds sigh through the door
For the ~woodpile's vanished under Q drift
OF seventeen feet or more.
No mail on the rosd-no news In the
town;
Men neither come nor 60;
But over and under, above and around,
It's nothing but - snow.
