Georgetown Athletic Notes.

On Thursday last the Varsity boys met the
Columbia Athletic Clubs nine and played tie
game 1t was one of the most hotly contested
muring against the decisions of Umpire Simms.
The Varsity boys claim they could, in justice,
have left the field, but so confident were they
hope. The Post stated that the Varsity boys
would not allow substitute to an injured
player. This is not so; they did so, although
section of the rules would have justified
them did they object.
The lawn tennis tournament begins next
week. The boys have now four beautiful
courts.
new gymnasium is contemplated if the
president of the yard can carry out his wishes.
Georgetown in the near future will not only
boast OF beautiful gymnasium and natato-
rum, but also new hand-ball alley.
The college grounds at present look their
fairest.

Dogskin Grated on a Boys Leg.

A school-boy in Edinburgh scalded his left

There being no signs of healing the surgeon

Professor orion, of Ohio, in pa
per recently read before the Amer
lean Association for the Advancement
of Science, stated that there is not
the faintest doubt that the natural
gas supply in the Indiana and Ohio
fields is not only exhaustible, but is
rapidly and surely being exhausted.
He said he had yet to find a man
conversant with the existing facts
who does not entirely agree with
him. The gas is stored in the rocks,
where it has been for untold ages. 1t
is not now being generated, and ev-
cry foot that escapes to the surface
leaves the quantity remaining for flu
tnre use just SO much smaller. The
pressure of gas in the wells of Ohio
and Indiana fields is steadily dimin-
ishing, the decrease already having
amounted to 80 or 40 per cent. In
view of this, DR.. Orion urges the i'm
perative necessity for cities and
States to take action restricting the
lavish and wasteful use of gas. Even
the strictest regulations cannot pre-
vent the exhaustion of the supply of
gas in few years, but they may put
off that exhaustion some time.

SPLENDID sPEClMs EMS.

Q. v. DAVIS, proprietor Of the Lake
side and Highland hotels at Hope,
Idaho, stayed over in the city yes
terdy on his way to Beaver canyon
after two carloads Of wild animals,
which he intends to ship to his ranch
in New Hampshire for breeding pur-
poses. The two carloads consist OF
elk from the vicinity Of the canyon
and moose from Winnipeg. The elk
are all young, being from one to two
years old, and are very promising
lot. The largest is full grown, hav-
ing antlers sixty eight inches in
length, with space OF fifty four in
ches between the tips, but the balance
have not reached maturity. The
moose herd at Winnipeg is composed
entirely Of calves, but there are some
full grown specimens elsewhere be-
longing to Mr.. Davis. He has al
ready sent out two carloads Of AMI
mails, which are doing nicely at their
new home. His plan is to keep the
animals OH the ranch and allow them
to breed in order that the species
may not become extinct. Mr.. Davis
says he can put his hand en- every
herd of buffalo in America; that there
are forty-sevsn now being herded in
the Flathead country, thirty-fve in
Kansas, twelve in Bertha, Oak, and
twenty-five on his ranch In New
Hampshire. There is also herd OF
about sixty or seventy in the Big
Horn country which belong to the
National park. These are all the
herds left on the American continent
to-day out of the almost countless
millions few years ago.

FOR a TEXT.
Scientific Press.

Taking for text the fact that two
dollar aurilerous quartz can now be
mined and m lied in California at a
profit, an interesting sermon might
be preached thsrefrom on the posi-
bilities Of gold mining IN this State.
When we commenced this branch of
mining in California, quartz carrying
free gold to the value of $50 per ton
was considered about as low grade
ore as we then could afford to handle,
$50 rock being thrown aside as utter
| ly worthless.
| So costly then were labor and the
other factors of production, SO imper-
feet our machinery and methods, and
such our ignorance OF the business,
that after we had followed quartz
mining for few years, much money
having been spent in the interim to
promote il, this industry, instead of
growing and prospecting as was ex
pected, actually went into a decline,
and for a long succession Of years
idle quartz-mills and abandoned mines
were TO be seen all over California.
But at length there came change /;
not marked or rapid at FIRST, bat a
change that in good time served to
restore life to this business and final.
ly insure for it lasting and cumula-
tive prosperity.
Vast and diversified are the ma
terial resources of California. Bound
less the opportunities presented here
for the profitable employment Of cap
ital and labor. All our leading home
pursuits are destined to undergo ear
ly ana rapid expansion. There can
be no doubt of this. We have al
ready entered on this the stage of our
second growth. But on none of these
domestic industries does there await
such phenomenal growth as that re-
served for the business Of quartz
mining. 1t is the Que thing in which
we have the raw material without
STINT unexampled facilities for its
prosecution and that cannot be over
done.
Who can measure the two. dollar
per ton collaborating quartz to be
found IN this State? Who can meas
ure even the extent Of our auriferous
territory? We know our principal
gold belt covors an area OF 10000
square miles or more, besides which
we have several minor gold fields
whose aggregate area is nearly half
as large. We know this whole ter. !
rtory abounds with auriferous quartz
veins, but we know little about their |
extent because not one in hundred |
has been exploited 10 any great depth.
A hundred years hence we will be
better informed on shis point. About
that time our people, more fully ad-
vised as to the extent OF our aurifer-
Gus wealth, will be wondering why
we OF the present generation we've so
seemingly Indifferent to its existence
and so slow to turn it to practical ac-
count.
