Attempts are made in this camp to
concentrate the entire out put so as to
make an ore the value Of which would
be great enough to pay a fair profit
after meeting the charges above nam
ed this has been TO a limited extent
successfully carried out by the Hum
boidt company with a capacity of
some 20 tons daily, the plant being
composed Of 10 stamps and 4 ffue van
ners. The loss incurred by the oxides
and carbonates of copper being carried
away in the tailings amount to as
much If not more than the smelter
charges named, the only real saving
Is In bringing up an ore which under
the present condition Of affairs is

per which pass Off quite a large per
centage Of the silver, and some gold is
also lost.
The fact that an around us the
smelling OF copper ores IS most sue
cessfully conducted the plants paying
frstrate dividends year after wear
with a smaller percentage Of copper
and no gold or silver in their ores has
set those interested ia this district TO
investigating the smelling problem.
They were net at the outset with
the statement that our ores are very
silielous, that it would require a great
deal OF iron, Of which we have but lit
tie and lime Of which VIC have great
quantities. This lack OF iron has
seemed a stumbling block in the way
Of smelling our ores here on the
ground, our c0fe and coal would cost
less than car neighbors in Arizona pay
for IL, orr lime carrying but 8 per cent
OF foreign matter is practically mex
haustible and right at hand. We now
have plenty Of water and but for the
lack Of iron the problem'of making a
busy, bustling mining district with a
large metal output would be solved.
now the remedy for this lies in the
simple statement: ''We do not need
iron for iuxiug"
Let me quote you a sentence OF two
In a letter from n Of the largest and
most successfully smelling men in the
west.

quircs heavy luxing. Ifiron is scarce

THE LrlAcs BY THE CATE.

Last night wore my Sunday gown,
 My sweetheart came to call. We took . walk across the fields,
 How fair he was, and tall The moon was shining bright as day,
 And so we fingered late To chat beneath the lilac boughs
 Beside the little gate. He kissed me and hid my face
 Among the fragrant flowers. Though all upon my Sunday gown
 They shook the dew in showers. He drew me gently to his breast
 ssOh, come my bonny Kate And share with me cottage home,
 With lilacs by the gater' Sweet is the red and royal rose,
 The mystic iris. too, The lily in its bridal robes,
 The bluebell in the dew. The dainty violet but still
 Above them all 1 rate The fiow'r that heard my maiden troth The lilac by the gate. When by the streams of Paradise,
 Through endless spring roam, Mid all the fadeleSs gardens there
 shall not feel at home Unless robin somewhere trills
 love-song to his mate, And dear. old fashioned lilac flowers
 Are blooming by the gate. . Minnie Irving.

aulrar,.n Funeral Customs.

When the head of Bulgarian family perceives that he is about to die he sends for the priest and begins to bar gain with him about the cost of his funeral. The moment he dies. all the pots, pans and kettles in the house are turned upside down to prevent his soul taking refuge in any of them, and great care is taken to prevent either man or animal--especially cat or dog from stepping across his body as otherwise. in the opinion of his family, he would turn into vampire, and so be continual nuisance to them and their neighbors. The body is buried without any coffin, in shallow grave, and left there for three years, during which time many offerings of food and wine are placed upon it. At the end of the third year the bones of the dead man are dug up and carefully washed. put into linen bag, and laid before the altar in the village church. and after receiving the blessings of the priest are finally buried for good. -.

A PoLICEMAN's PARTNER.
Tom is a Cat, Bat He Knows a Thing or

 Octavia street running from Bush street north, owes its nocturnal safety during the last i've years to Officer John Tanning and his partner Tom. a big black cat The police officer pa trolling his beat with a feline perched on his shoulders or trotting patiently at his heels for hours is familiar sight to the residents out in that sec ton of the city. but it surprised Chronicle reporter the other night
 Tanning, who is a big. stout look ing Irishman in reply to inquiry gave the following explanation:
 Five years ago, when first came on this beat n said he. 'one cold, rainy night I found on the corner of Bush and Octavia streets shivering kitten crouching in doorway. trying vainly to get warm and dry. The pitiful moans' with which it greeted my ap- proach made me pick the little thing up. and, putting it under my coat carried the kitten along with me all night
 Since then every night that kitten, w HIGH ndo RTOHL intO d OiS touCdh 1S waiting for me on that old corner and remains with me all night long.

He would not associate with the officer who took my place, and absolutely pined away. grieving over my absence. When 1 returned he looked like a skeleton. but hls joy was unmistakable Tanning says the cat is very intelli- gent and understands the duties of a | police officer well. Tom is great judge of drunken people, and expresses his opinion that they should be ar rested by curving his back and snort ing at the inebriated individual. When the officer makes an arrest his part ner.

A we'll known Atlanta man, says the Constitution. who died recently. was ill long time before the end came. When he became aware of his ap- preaching death. he called a friend to his bedside and asked if he knew a minister whose name was mentioned. Well. l wish" said the sick man. "that you'd go to him and tell him I'm going to die. and ask him to preach at my funeral" The friend went to the minister's house and found him sick in bed. Nevertheless he de- livered the request Tell my good brother" said the minister. sthat I'm mighty sick myself. but I am getting better, and if he can manage to hold on to life until l get up, I'll preach his funeral sermon gladly"

MANY persons in forming and in car

MANY persons in forming and in oar rying out their ideas of justice fail to take account of the element of time. They intend to deal justly with every one. to withhold from no one his due. to fulfil every obligation and satisfy every claim; but they feel no special duty to hasten these acts of justice. If they are done eventually. they are content and think that others should be content also. The hours. or days. or weeks that may elapse between the claim and their fnlflment of it do not seem 10 them very important if 1t is but ultimately discharged. They would not for the world evade a debt but they will delay its payment without any compunction- There are of course cases where this may be unattended with any apparent evil results; but there are others where inconvenience ensues. and still others where suffering and loss is entailed.

THE not unfamiliar spectacle is be- fore us of two sets of people each desiring ardently that which the other is able to bestow. yet seemingly incapable of arriving at an under standing. The farmer wants workers; he is able to give abundantly for that which he receives The laborer of the city wants living wages, pure air. clean water and a decent home. The farmers need is of course more sharp ly felt recently. than 1t has been for some time. but it always exists. and the question why it has not been met more fully has yet to be answered. The morbid preference for high-pressure existence and the prejudice witch is soon to become obsolete against the farm are the principal reasons which present them. and neither of them is good and suf- ficient.

KIND words have a much larger and more important mission than is usual ly supposed They are much more than mere sweetness of daily life; they prepare the way for every kind of in tercourse that may be necessary and facilitate its aim. Take. tor instance. the case in which it is often thought best to dispense with kind words that of one who is called upon to crit icise or to reprove The manner of doing this delicate task frequently makes all the difference in the way il is received. Given with kindly feel ings and conched in kind words, ii carries with it a power on the heart that can never be eAerted by cold severity or hot anger. If the purposs of reproof be the good of the offender. not the outlet of indignant displsas- ure. no medium can be found so favor. able as the earnest and kindly speset that betrays sympathy. compsssioa and hope.

THE idea that education ends with the coming of manhood is one which no really educated mind cntertains
 But there arc not many persons who realize the extent to which men and women are educated by their children.
 In fact it is from this source that the best of education comes, and if men and women were wiser they would make more of their advantages in this way. No grown person can associate on terms of loving familiarity with his children without having his mind enlarged. his faculties trained to higher efficiency and his soul made better and sweeter by their converse

Accordingly he went home with a
