Large Families.

The Government of Quebec last win ter provided that every father of fam fly having twelve or more children living should be entitled, under certain eondi- tions of settlement, to one hundred acres of land. Since the day appointed for re- ceiving claims, there have been no less than five hundred and forty-seven duly proven applications, and fresh claims are coming in, which, it is expected, will raise the total to between seven and eight hundred. The notable fact about this is that, while the burden of the birth and care of children comes to the mother, all she gets from the Gov ernment will be the use of one-third of the land if she lives longer than her husband.

Not Worked Out Yet.

The old Oest mine in Silver City,
which has turned out thousands of
dollars Of bullion, and which for the
last two years has been tied up with
lawsuits, is by no means bad piece
of property yet. A. A. Pollard, one
of the principle owners of the mine
was in town last Sunday and he in
formed us that on the 10Th the COM
pany received $4,197 from a
cleanup of 1O4 tous of rock just
worked in the Taylor mill. There
will be dividend of nearly $4,000.

A Rem ark able Breed OF Cattle.

Wilhelm Rehnstrom tells the
Rural New Yorker of remarkable
breed of cattle, common to northern
Sweden, which is new to stockmen
and dairy men in this country
This breed has been bred for more
than thousand years. The ami
mails are polled and snow-white ex.
cept the ears, which are black, in
this respect resembling the wild cat
tie of Chillingham, England. While
not large in size, the cows are good
mixers, and yield large quantities
of excellent butter. If any of our
American breeders want to intro
duce a novelty with good deal OF
practical value about it, let them
try this Swedish race. Their beau
tiful color and markings, and the
fact of their being hornless, would
attract attention at once. Professor
Rehnstrom goes SO far to say that
this breed crossed on the best spec
linens of our Anerican-bred Short
horn dairy cows would make the
finest possible American dairy cows
Cattle breeders, however, seem to
have had about all the novelties
they want for a time.

A little Ncrap.

Last Thursday afternoon Bert
Fish and Charlie Bender had a mis-
understanding about some transac-
ton and they finally came to blows.
Bender used a buggy jack as wea-
pom and stuck Fish in the eye, and
Fish cut Bender's head somewhat
with a board. Bender dug up a
shotgun and threatened to use it,
but it was taken away from him,
and Sheriff Donnelly took both of
the young men down to the Court
House, and after giving them some
good advice let them go under a
promise that they would not renew
hostilities.

THE SAVAGE MIME.
Charges of Conspiracy Made Against
the Directors.

NJ. w. Fox has begun an action
in the Superior Court against the
Savage Mining Company and H. NJ.
Levy, A. K. P. Harmon, M. Hoe
flech, H. Zadig and E. B. Holmes,
the directors of the company, in
which he asks for an injunction
| against the defendants.
Fox says that the company's mine
is yielding 500 tons of ore each week
which is worth $50 a ton: Within
the past three years about $4,000
tons of ore has been extracted from
the mine, and this has been milled
by the Rock Point mill, near Day.
ton.
Fox then goes on to say that the
directors Of the company have con-
spired with the owners of the mill
to have the ore handled by a fraud
ulent system of milling, which
leaves in the tailings a large portion
of the gold and silver contained in
the ore, which is afterward worked
over for the benefit of the directors.
In this manner they have secured
a large quantity of valuable tailings
which they intend to work over, the
plaintiff says:
Fox owns 10! feet of the Savage
mining ground, and he does not
think that he has received his share
of the ore which was extracted from
the mine. The directors have also,
he says, paid 81 a ton for milling
the ore when So so would be rea-
sonable sum. He therefore wants
the defendants restrained from ex-
tracing any more ore from the mine
and from permitting the tailings
from being worked over; also, that
the defendants be ordered to allow
plainsiff and an expert to examine
the mine and the tailings.-S. r.
Post.
The Rock Point mill has not
crushed any ore for a month past,
the cause for this being given that
there is not ore enough in the mine
to keep it and the Mexican mill
running. The Savage ore worked
at the Rock Point has, according to
report, yielded from $18 to $24 per
ton, although it has been the i'm
preston of many that the rock has
run higher than this. AS soon as
the mill stopped crushing this Win
ter the sulphurets and shines were
cleaned up in a hurry. What the
value of these were we do not know
but it is well-known fact that
the tailings are considered quite
valuable. The mill is now leased
by Senator Williams, of Ormsby
county.
