THE QUEEN MINE.

Having recently heard so many
favorable reports about the Queen
Of the West mine, the BULLETIN
man concluded last Tuesday to
take a walk up Meyers gulch, and,
if permitted, examine it in person.
He was cordially received by the
owners, Messrs, Pearson, Alexson
and Adams, and willingly shown
throughout the works. The tunnel
is about 800 feet in length, $50 feet
Of which follows a ledge ranging
from three to eight feet in width,
with we'll defined wall on
each side and containing remark
ably good ore all the way. There
is continuous vein of very rich
quartz rock about 20 inches in
thickness, but from numerous horn
tests made the whole ledge would
doubtless mill not less than $25 per
ton. At the face of the tunnel the
ledge is about eight feet in width,
and from this spot the writer pro-
cured some rock and brought it to
town for the purpose of testing II
himself. He did so by the use Of
a small muller and horn and sub
mitted the result to several expert
enced miners, all of whom pro
nounccd it big prospect"-indi'
eating $50 to the ton.

Queen, the groupings Of which pro
duce largely in gold, and so soon al
this ledge is cut an upraise will b.
made to the surface for ventilation
purposes.
Only four men are now employed
in the mine, but SO soon as the
cross-eut is made, sufficient ore bin:
erected at the mouth Of the tunnel
and suitable timbers piled near by
for all purposes. then stopping viii
be commenced at the point now the
face of the tunnel, and the tunne
pushed further along the maiI
ledge to an indefinite distance-anc
this will require quite a respectable
force of miners.
The owners Of the @ een are poo
men, and must rely upon custom
mills to reduce their ore-yet they
have taken the precaution to locate
and record beautiful mill-site OF
fat just below their tunnel OF
Meyers gulch, which during TIN
dryest season affords sufiicien
water to run 20-stamp mill. The,
hope before many years hard TOT

their own and utilize this waite
course and the vast amount of goo,
timber now in the immediate vicin

as good now as were those Of tn
celebrated Ophir Is months age
and there is no good reason VIII,
their fond anticipations may not b
realized ut an early date.
The Queen of the West mine i
situated on Meyers gulch, due ives
from the Ophir and about one mil

and is well worthy of visit by al
who are interested in our gold mines

The Care Of Colts.

Colts are fed nothing but hay
through tie winter, and sometimes
that of poor quality. This IS poor
policy, and the result is the colts
grOwth is nearly stopped, aud what
little takes place is uneven. A
correspondent IN The York Tribune
states the Imatter correctly when

three months after weaving time
one quart of oats mixed with the
sane quantity lof wheat bran and
gill Of Olimeal morning aud night.
The bran, aside from being nutri-
tiCuS, tends to keep the colt free
from worms, while the oats are
excellent to make superior muscle
and form a cool quality of bones.
The clinical aids digestion and
keel the bowels in order.
As the winter advances this
ration may be gradually increased

A HUNTERS STORY.

A number of old time hunters
and sportsmen were congregated
in front of a Main street hotel
recently spinning yarns and re.
lating their experiences with gnn,
dog and rod, Capt. Ben Melton,
a young hunter, AMI that we'll
known veteran, Col. Red Williams,
were IN the crowd.
Duck shooting was The subject
under consideration until it was
banished with a dating shot from
one of the company, who said it
was a sacred tradition down in
Henderson county that hunter
with a muzzle loading war gun
once killed thirty.fiye ducks at one
shot. Capt. Melton opened up
with a dog story:
Gen. Harding, of Tennessee, he
said, told the first story illustrat-
ing the good qualities of a bird dog
that eyer came to his notice. This
dog, according to the generals
statement, would make point
anywhere. The dog was very fond
OF the general, and accompanied
him wherever he went. Upon one
occasion the general visited NASH
vile, and of course put up at the
best hotel. His faithful dog, PontO,
was with him. Entering the office
the general had Just registered,
and. as he turned around, he
noticed Ponto had strnck a point.
The general was somewhat en-
barrassed at his dogs behavior,
and thought, of course, he had the
rabies, but it was all explained
when he walked oyer TO the regis
ter and there saw the name of a

Mans Ideal.

A mans Ideal and a man 3
achievement are two very different
things; yet every man reconizes the
truth that his achievement ought
to be nearer his ideal than it is, aud
that forces him to face the question
how to bring the two together.
One man fixes his ideal at what he
deems the absolute right, and
strives to come as near to that
ideal as he can. Another man takes
as his ideal his own best perform
ance, and strives to bring his aver
age up to that. The first man
seems to have less success in his
striving than the last man; but
be really has more. la the one case,
the mans achieving grows better
and better; in the other case, 1t
grows poorer. The man whose
ideal is not above his own per.

A PATHETIC STORY.

young woman quite unknown to us

request. Two months went on,
and then came second letter in
