The Poor Mans Industry.

The mineral industry Of America has
always beer the poor mans industry. II
is one of the few n I'm which intelli-
gence can embark without capital. But
then capital must assist the miner after
his energies have been rewarded by a rich
discovery. Minerals are worthless until
converted into precious metals, and it is
impossible so to convert them without the
use of large capital. This aggregation of
capital, while il makes large profit for
itself, brings great prosperity to the sur.
rounding countries, and we know IL would
be wrong to entice capital into an invest
ment that might prove disastrous. For
this reason great care has been taken i'm
Washington to determine whether or not
there was solid foundation for an i'm
mense minera output. We are now pre-
pared to assert that il is M of the grand
est Of our ~undeveloped resources. II is
just such a country as would have caused
the Phoenician miners, Cadmus and
Jason, to leap with joy.-Ndshua IN. H.

From the Boston Transcript.
A bright young lady of the Listeners
acquaintance had n curious experience
the other day. Finding herself with a
couple of hours on her hands, she stepped
to the library table and picked up the
first novel that came 10 her hand. IL was
1.-THE Tragic Musei' by Henry James.
Satisfied with the choice, she sat down to
read. The book ran ON apparently To de-
scribe the feelings Of n lover whose sweet
heart had gone of and left him. and IL de
scribed this in n familiar way, which
seemed To assume that the reader knew
istic Of James," thought the young lady
right into the middle Of things, and take
il for granted that we know all
about his people.r She read on about
people she hadn't heard of before
and had no introduction to. and did not
find IL at all pulling. "It's only modern
art" she said 10 herself. On and on she
q continuously, until she had finished
100 pages and more. Then, more by ac-
cideut, perhaps, than anywhere else. she
happened To turn TO the title and there
she cad languidly. "The Tragic Muse, by
Henry James. In two volumes; Volume

She had begun the story OF the begin
ming Of the second volume. and never sus-
pected anything wrong. And when she
went back sud read the first volume, she
wished she had not. There they were,
she said, back on the same point; still
talking about it, ldon't see what need
there was for the first volume, anyway"

miners Of Montana. Heretofore when
any person from outside the state desired
information as to some mine or mining
they were at a loss TO determine the
value of the information they received.
They did not know who to inquire OF or
who was competent TO answer. The con-
sequence was that reliable Information
could only be had by great expense in
each case. With the exchange In working
order il would now be entirely possible
for any one to learn the standing OF any
mine and the market value Of its stock.
OF course expert work in examining the
mine will still have to be lone at the pri-
vate expense Of the parties, but all pre-
limiLary matters can be learned through
the exchange.-Herdld.

MINING NOTES.

A large body of high grade ore has re-
Gently been struck in the Park mine,
Park mining district.
One hundred and twenty-seven loca-
tions of quartz claims i'm Jefferson county
were filed for record in the Office of the
county clerk and recorder during the
month of April, 1880. making a total of
$50 for the first third of the year.
The Port Angeles, Washington, Tribune
says: Now that a good coal vein has
been discovered within seven or eight
miles of the city, the moment we utilize
IL and begin the loading of boats with the
black diamonds, in our harbor, a popula-
ton Of $1,000 will be assured.
Ten tons Of ore from the Bamboo Chief,
near Virginia City, was recently shipped
to Omaha by the ~lessees. The returns,
amounting to Sl,5lO net, or $li per ton,
have just been received. The result ex-
cceds the expectations of the lessees and
other shipments will be made directly.
The Spokane Mining exchange was
formally opened Thursday. President
Warren Hussey and Others delivered
speeches and a general reception was
held a. the elegant new quarters in the
Frankfurt block. Considerable stock has
already been listed and the exchange
starts oil with every indication of success.

A Publishers Hard Luck.

Washington Correspondence Of the New York
Tribune.
Representative Nathan Frank Of Mis-
souri, is one Of the proprietors of a daily
newspaper. He is m OF the many news
paper pr~oprietors who sit i'm the halls of
congress-. About a year z the manager
of Mr.. Franks newspaper conceived the
idea of Offering an accident policy carry
ing 500 insurance with each copy OF the
paper. I asked Mr.. Frank the other day
Of what value the accident policy had
proved TO his publication.
"Dh, WELL" he said. in a discouraged
tone, at advertised rs a little for a time,
but then no one died"
expressed some surprise at this view
OF the case, suggesting that as no one had
Mr.. Frank had saved just 500.
YES" said the member from the Ninth
Missouri district, "we saved $500. but we
lost an advertisement that would have
been worth a good many thousands TO us.
If someone had been found dead with one
of those accident policies Of ours in his
pocket we would have had the people Of
the whole town buying copies Of the pa
per every evening, in the vain hope that
they might fall dead, too, and thus obtain
the coveted reward. We lost a great deal
of money by the perverse failure of our
subscribers to die suddenly on the day of
publication"

which ave the appearance of being as

BUTTE, July 11.-When Butte was but q
mining camp and the big hndsw were be-
iLg made, there was no more excitement
than that i'm the Castle mining district to-
day. The Castle mining district is about
60 miles off the Northern Pacific railway,

stages are now running from these two
places to the camp. There are now three
leading mines i'm the district. Two of
these, the Cumberland and the Yellow
stone, have been worked for some time;
the third, known as the Jumbo mine, was
not incorporated until last Monday night.
This new mine comprises six claims and
, lies in the very heart of the Castle mining
district between the Cumberland and the
Yellowstone mines. The incorporators
are: T. &. Cove, &. Sercrus, j. L. Lewis,
Lem Lewis, and C.. Chaplin. The Cumber-
land has been thus far the more success

stock sold at 20 cents. II can now be pur-
chased only with difficulty at s.. The
: beauty of this mine is that the more il is
worked. the better il pans out. AT a
depth of 100 feet. n vein % feet
across was found. At a depth
of 200 feet, the width of the
vein was found to have increased to As
feet. Now they ave sunk to a depth
Of .5OGfeet and have been prosecuting for
81 feet without finding any indications of
a foot wall. OF this cross-cut 30 feet con

they wish TO injurc the editor? IF
that is their object, it is certainly a

they most signally fail to accomplish
their purpose, for when such a spirit
among any part of his subscribers
becomes known, the paper will be
sure to get two new subscribers for

another view of the situation, edi-
tors do not consider that subscribers
take their papers as personal favOrs,
but because the paper is Interesting,
gives the news, etc, and that there
fore the subscriber is getting value

scriber5 to THE CAUCASIAN get from

Church Extension.

The claim Of Church Extension
on the Wilmington District should
be paid in full this year. II is a
fund from which many churches
have been relieved of immediate
strain AMI some have been enabled
to worship in their churches by its
friendly help who otherwise could
not have done SO. The claim is
small and should be paid i'll full; but
in order to do iteyery .,.ember must
feel an interest Ill the work, and do
his part. In any work Which i di-
vided into such small parts and left
to 50 many workers, it will suffer
great loss IL all do not do the par;
assigned to them. Now If each
member fails q few cents, while il
seems so small that it could not %
missed, yet it sill aggregate 4 large
part Of the whole.
Church building is a. much dug
al any church work and the member
who will not help according to his
or her ability must surely be remiss
in duty. We do hope the Whining
ton District will come TO the measure
of duty and Oh the plan of every
member doing his part. Especially
are we interested i'll the good name
of our circuits. The Minutes tells
