NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The executive
committee of the Western Associated
Press after several days investigation Of
the New York press situation announce
a satisfactory adjustment of the recent
differences. The attempted withdrawal
of The Sun aud Tribune from the New
York association was not in legal form
aud will not be permanent. Messrs.
Bennett and Pulitzer have returned
from Europe and will take firm stand
for the association. They have dis
PEELED all uncertainty in regard to
their papers and will tend to
bring The Sun and Tribune
in line. The National Press Association
is practically dead. The Interchange
of news between the Western Associated
Press aud the United Press was dis
continued last Tue day. On the same
day the interchange Of news between
the New York and tho United Press
Associations was discontinued, except,
so far as to furnish the New England
news. Victor F. Lawson and
Friedrich Drescoll have been elected to
succeed Richard Smith and A. N.
Holderman. This change was com.
inundated to the New York Association
and formerly recognized. This makes
the entire board in harmony assuring a
more effective administration. 1t is
confidently predicted that 10 more
difficulties will arise.

Dal1oIa Tin Mines.

CINCINNATI. o.. Nov. 1.-E. e.
Wells, who has returned from an inves
'igation of tin mines in the Black Hills
of Dakota, says: Il saw large quant;-
ties of tin ore, evidences OF vast expen-
ditures Of nc ey, numerous mills with
costly machinery, long tunnels bored
through solid rock and hundreds of
men employed. Engineer Wiistee
stated to me that over $4,000, 900 had
already been expended by the Harvey
Peak Tin company, which owns most of
the valuable claims near Hill City.
Mine Expert Childs, famous on the
Pacific coast as the manager of Hearst's
and Hagan's mine interests, has re-
Gently taken charge, and a complete
change has taken place in the running
OF affairs, and today half dozen large
plants are operating day and night and
a $50 ton reduction mill is being
erected. Next spring the first ton Of
American tin will, it is said, be smelted
at Harney's Peak.
When asked how soou this Black
Hills tin could be mined in sufficient
quantities to satisfy the home demand,
Mr.. Childs replied:
Within five years. You see we don't
want to commence reducing the ore
until our shafts and tunnels are all run
ming and things are in proper shape.
We might have commenced smelling a
great while ago, but the quantity OF ore
would not have been sufficient to keep
the COMMENTATORS working, When I do
start to taking out ore I propose to keep
that $50 ton mill hustling. People on
the outside, however. cannot under
stand why there is so long a delay in
producing the tin. They do not realize
how hard the rock is through which We
have to blast nor the time it takes. In
Cornwall the shat have gone down
over 2. 500 feet, while ours are not yet
down 30O.''
do you think the ore is improving
as Jon go DOWN."

face you know how rich it Isl

THE NEXT POPE.

Belief That Cardinal Gibbons Will Be
Chosen.
ROME. Nov IA recent article from
the pen of Signor Cesare, in one OF the
principal liberal organs, has made some
stir in ecclesiastical circles. Signor
Cesare. who is liberal writer of some
note, and who has made special study
OF ecclesiastical questions, contends
that Austria, in the name of the triple
alliance, onght to denominate the future
conclave and procure the election Of
pope amendable to the suggestions OF
the tliplealliance.
But the point of interest to Ameri
cans in the article is the vigorous op.
position to the oandidature Of Cardinal
Gibbons for the succession to the Papal
chair Among other things, Signor
cesare declares that under Cardinal
Gibbons the church would cease to be
"Roman." This attack on Cardinal
Gibbons is regarded at the Vatican as
the expression of the fear of the liber-
ais that Cardinal Gibbons might be
elected at the next conelave. The art
lcle will, however, have little effect, as
the Cardinal is very popular here, es :.
peclaiiy since the knights Of Labor in.
The national rivalries and iealousies
winch might prevent the unanimous
election OF q European Pope would not
operate in Cardinal Gibbons case. So,
MS chance of election is considered

Mrs. JOHN S. R1sLEY, of Pleasant

with a black snake measuring over
nine feet. She was out in the back
yard when she nearly stepped on the
reptile, which was in the act OF coiling
to spring at her. Quick as flash
Mrs. Risley grabbed up a pitchfork
and for ten minutes fought the snake
and finally managed to kill it. The
snake is the largest Of it's kind seen in
this vicinity for some time.

In excavating the Case Grande ruins
in Eastern Arizona with a view TO re-
pairing the walls, Messrs. Stoutfer and
White find the cement foundations as
hard as when they were laid, which
was, perhaps, 1000 years ago. The
mystery is how the builders, with the

prison to sign statement written in
Spanish generating the police from
all responsibility as to their arrest, as

they were requested. Another point
which is not serving to allay the i'll

EVENING BREAD.

The Silly song of evenings blissful rest,
The length ming shadows from the fading west
Creep slowly DER the fields and forests green,
Til naught Is Left of natures changing sheen
Dame Luna steals the brightness OF the day,
And lowing kline Craze on their homeward way.
The vearied toiler from the polished piov
Looks on the sun and wonders how
The heeting hours have flown soon,
To greet the silv'ry full ozoed moon
That slowly creeps from meath the eastern hin
And floods with peace the cotoers humble sill
The busy housewife spreads the evening meal
The bread is broken with hungry zeal
A zest that makes the fruit Of labor sweet,
The well TILED loan, the full grained garnered
wheat,
Are hfe's reward for every upturned clod
That yields its increase from the meIlowed sod
The stainless floor, the low matched roof
Make idle hours, dumb moments stern reproof
For wasted years that bring no lasting gain
To those who toll not, and yet reap in vain;
For harvest, where life's wine and oil
Are culled from natures well titled soil
The evening bread is sweet to those who tread
The burrows, where the crowding weeds are dead.
No matted turf to clog the sharpened share
That turns the mold, that quick ming earth may
bear
The rpened grain and make our daily bread
A solace for the years when youth has fled
