A FIREBUG of Brooklyn pleads tina

A FIREBUG of Brooklyn pleads that he
ought not to be sent to the penitentiary for
the reason that he is the victim of an uncon-
trollable mania for setting fire to buildings.
Possibly; but if there is any better cure for
the mania than strict seclusion in peni-
tentiary for the necessary term Of years the
incendiary gentleman had better produce
convincing testimonials to that effect.
Otherwise he will be likely to take heroic
dose of the penitentiary.

Workmen Making Excavations.
OTTAWA, ILL, Oct. 3O-Evidences of the
occupancy of the Illinois river valley by an
ancient race of some culture were uncovered
at Marseilles, eight miles east of Ottawa,
this morning. While workmen were exca-
waiting for new gates just above the Marseil-
les dam they discovered what appeared to be
q stone roadway.
Futher excavation disclosed some so feet OF
a weil-nade roadway of slabs of stone,
each stone being some IL feet long, from one
TO three feet wide and over two inches in
thickness, with a break here and there filed
in with coblestones, which were also laid in
regular courses. The road it is thought, was
built By the Aztecs or the TeZcunons, who
were driven from this region by the Indians

The most important event OF the week
in our local mining circles is the great
strike made in the Howe-Manhattan
mine at DeLamar. This is one of the
properties adjoining the great Wilson
claim of the DeLamar group, and from
present indications the owners have
struck the ledge which is known as the
seventy-seven foot ledge in the latter
property. They have the same rich sill
yer tale formation, have crosscut the
ledge for thirty-fve feet and are still in
it, with fortune in sight. We frequent
ly hear this mountain spoken of as the
second Comstock. From present ap-
pearances the Comstock people will
sometime be calling that lode second

THE ORE AND BULLION OUTLOOK
A Rather Quiet Week-Trade Home and
Abroad-News From Many
Utah Mines.

The uncertain weather still retards bust
ness In certain lines, and until the Their
mometer rises "an inch or So" as mer-
chant yesterday expressed it, one may not
expect to note much of an Improvement in
business nor the opening of the spring
trade in its true sense. This remark, of
course, applies to retailers and jobbers
only. The wholesale houses have long
since filed the greater portion of their
orders for spring goods and are now busy
figuring on the summer supply. Country
dealers, generally, have laid in quite large
stocks, and are very hopeful Of big sea
sons trade. There is, it would seem, but
one obstacle in the way, a most potent one,
too, the scarcity Of money in the country
settlements. Advices from some quarters
are to the effect that money is somewhat
easier than for few months past. There
was hope, at one time, that the railways
would give such rate as would enable the
farmers and merchants of Utah to market
in the east number of the many hundreds
of car loads of wheat now stored here; but
as time passes, and nothing has been done.
it is pretty fair to assume that the semi
promises recently given were merely TO
placate the askers, with no idea of even
granting the request. The moving of this
wheat would prove big thing for Utah,
and it is to be hoped that another effort
viii be made to induce the railways to do
something.
Real estate has been very quiet, and
stocks have not been as lively as the aver
age broker could wish.
