Another Victim.

A special to the Globe-Democrat from Washington says that General Miles is preparing charges against Gen. McKeever, a fellow officer in the department of the Missouri. The par ticular specification will be that. while acting as Adjutant General of the army, Gen. McKeever exceeded his au- thority in giving out Gen. Miles off, cial report of the Sioux troubles, and, furthermore, was guilty of talking about his brother officer (Gen. Miles) in manner unbecoming an officer and gentleman and contrary to army regulations. If the matter takes the shape that is now in prospect, lively row may be anticipated, and, among other things, it is probable that con siderable light will be thrown on the inner workings of the Sioux campaign and the exact status of Gen. Miles presidential boom be ascertained.

could not be made by anything but g bird. There is no water except in some mineral springs. Rising from the sea is diorite wall, which is q, it in one place so as to form a passage through and reveal second wall 400 feet beyond. Between these two the whole body of soft broken material will show color whenever tried, and pockets of great richness are found. From one which has not yet been operated further than to take out 2500 tons ot ore off the top, $70 ton was cleared, giving the company $175,OO0, which is being spent in laying out roads, running four tunnels, building ships, boarding houses, etc, and in preparatory work generally. A strange discovery was made in the shape of n bed of white sand which ran along the top of the mountain in level streak. It proves tO DC a quartz lcuSe wnlch has been pulyerized by the intense heat until it is as fine as if run through a battery of stamps. It assays from one to fifty ounces of gold; worth near ly $2O an ounce. It is three feet on the surface, but dips down soon and widens to eight feet. Scatterine through it are specimens of quartz which did not melt and which are not "lousy" with gold, but are plated with it. One sample weighed eighty pounds, and it had at least $500 worth of gold on its outside, to say nothing of what is scattered through it.

Copper and Copper Goods


 The weak feeling that has prevailed in the copper market for some time past has undergone no perceptihle change, and there is nothing to indi- cate an early change for the better, though the threatened demoralization is now regarded as scare, pure and simple. Lake Superior is quoted at 15 @154, and Arizona at 15, in the New York markets, with an occasional shading of those figures in accordance with quantity. Locally Baltimore in- got rules at IA out of store, with west ern casting brands at l39@13B. There are no new features to note in the sheet copper line. Manufactured goods are quiet and rather dull. Sel- lers are still confident that an inn provement is not far off.-[St. Louis s. and H.

The Hall.

The masquerade ball last night was a pronounced success in every particu- lar. The hall was filled with partici- pants and spectators and the costumes were varied and unique in their make up. The clown and the locomotive, the butterfly and flower girl; the Chinaman and Italian, the baker and the cowboy, and every other imagin

Wealth in the Watermelon.

Every season develops more and more
fully the prevailing necessity for the dis
covery Of some practical and profitable
use to which the surplus melon crop
may be put. Every melon left in the
field at the end Of the season, except for
seed, represents q waste. A means by
which this waste, which annually as
sumes enormous proportions, could be
averted would no doubt be hailed with
pleasure by every melon grower in the
country; therefore the announcement
from the Southland to the effect that
such means has been discovered. if au-
thenticated, is an important one.
The new discovery, which consists Of
converting the melon bulb into strip, it
Is alleged, will establish in the south an
industry scarcely of second Importance
to that of producing oil from cotton
seed, and the product is vouched for as
being the very best ever yet made. If
the report proves true, and there seems
to be little or no reason for discrediting

with little energy, convert that which

Treatment.
Sufferers are not generally aware that these dis

the result of this discovery is that simple remedy
has been formulated whereby catarrh, catarrhal

from one to three simple applications made at
