rrMHsn on MINERAL LAND.
PlradinE Ignorancc az the Law Will
Net Exempt from Prosecution.

Net Exempt fs'om Prosecution
The San Francisco Mining and
Scientific Press gives the following
information relating to the new tim
Der law:
On Nav 10th we published in the
Press the circular letter Of Commits
sioner Carter of the General Land
Office, giving the instructions which
govern in carrying into effect the
sections of the General Land Act Of
March 3, 1891, relating to the cut
ting of timber on public lands. The
sections only apply to Colorado,
Montana, Idaho, North Dakota,
Wyoming and Nevada, the Terri
tory of Utah and District of Alaska.
These instructions show that set
tiers, miners, farmers and other res
idents who have not sufficient
supply of timber on their own
claims for firewood, fencing or build
ing, or for necessary use in develop
ing the mineral or other resources of
their lands, are permitted TO cut
timber from the public lands for
these purposes, but not for sale or
use on other lands, or by other per-
sons. The law specially provides
that sawmill owners, lumber dealers
and all Others who purchase timber
taken from public lands are as
guilty Of trespass as those who ac-
tually cut it.
Permits NAV he obtained from the
Secretary Of the Interior to cut tim
her on the public lands for the pur-
poses Of merchandise, under certain
conditions prescribed in the Act.
A certain class of poor and ignor-
ant wood-choppers. and also wood
purchasers, are apt 10 get into
trouble at once if this law is not
complied with. Permits must be
taken out at once if they are cutting
timber on public lands and selling
it. II q miner is using it on his own
claim he needs no permit to cut;
but the Act Of June 3. 1878, relative
to cutting timber to sell, on the pub
lie lands, is still in force. All cases
Of cutting for sale in violation of the
provisions of that Act in the Act Of
March 3, 1891, will be prosecuted.
The new Act of March 3, 1891,
took effect on the day Of its APP
proval, and is, of course, now in
force. The fact that wood-chopper
did not know of the new law will do
him no good in the case Of prosecu-
ton by the Government. The reg
ulations will be strictly enforced.

Jeweled Dog Collars.

The ultra fashionable young woman
who still clngs to her dog is having the
silver collar made to duplicate exactly her
favorite bangle. The plain leather bands
and those studded with metal are hope
lessly old fashioned; chains have gone
out, beaten into bracelet designs, and
solid silver is the only sort of neckwear
in which self respecting dog will allow
himself to appear. Some of these new
collars are wonderfully rich and costly.
One, the property of luxurious King
Charles spaniel, cost his mistress consid-
erably over $100. It was fully an inch
wide, and as thick as the animals COM
fort would allow.
The entire surface was richly engraved
with a court scene from the reign of
Charles II. The work was fine and ar
tistic, and on either edge of this superb
collar line of tiny turquoises was set
deep in silver. If the young woman af-
fects cats she has the silversmith make
six or eight light silver hoops, some cut
and Others plain, and these bright rings
he YIELDS around pussy's furry neck. A
beautiful pet Angora, which lies on a
cushion and feeds upon cream, wears
fine cut silver hoops that sparkle like
jewels every time she moves.-Manufac-
turing Jeweler.

Irregular Working in Machinery.

A simple method has been devised by
means of which, in the midst of busy
workshop full of machinery in motion,
any special noise, even though slight,
can be distinguished and its origin
traced. The apparatus consists of an
ordinary india rubber gas tube about
yard in length; the length may, how
ever, be varied to suit the nature of the
investigation. The tube is unprovided
with earpiece or bell. One end is ap-
piled to the ear of the observer while
the other is moved about in order to ex-
plore the seat of the irregularity. Since
the free orifce of the tube is compare
lively small and is applied as closely as
possible to the vibrating surface it prac-
ticallyreceives only those sonorous vibra-
tons which are emitted by this surface.
Those who have to do with machinery
will find it especially useful for observ-
ing noises due to irregularities in the
working of small parts of machines,
which may be either difficult or danger
ous to approach in any other way.-New
York Commercial Advertiser.

Helping tno Heathen.

He was brisk little man with twink
ling eyes, and as he stepped into the
Office of the hotel, wherein about twenty
of us were lounging and smoking, he
cheerily called out:
"Now, gentlemen, want your atten-
ton for moment. You have all heard
of Africas 1t is country of heathens.
The niger in his natural state is q bad,
bad man. Hemust be improved morally
and rehgiously. l am interested in i'm
proving him."
He took a watch from his handbag,
and holding the face against his hand
continued:
"Now, then, you see this watch? 1t is
not going. The hands are set to GER
tain figure. The man who guesses near
est to that figure gets the watch. 1t is
fifty cents per guess, and everything
over and above expenses goes straight to
the heather of Africa"
"How do you know it will?" inquired
doubling Thomas.
Because shall leave the sum with
the landlord, to be handed to any local
preacher he elects"
Eighteen of us at once laid down our
''halves" and recorded our guesses, and
when the last one was in the little man
held up the watch and announced the
winner. Then he continued:
Gentlemen, that watch cost $3.50 at
wholesale. have received $9 There
appears to be a balance of $500 in favor
of the dusky heather who ache for re-
igious comfort. But let us see. My
railroad fare was $4.20; dinner and sup
per, $1.25; two drinks, 20 cents; two
games of billiards, 40 cents, and cigar,
10 cents, making in all $6.15. Landlord,

are an honest man, to see that it goes to
