OF the mining property recently bond
ed by Messrs. Charlie Thayer, How.
ard Vaughn and Geo. H. Bib, the Sill
verton Miner says:
The Thunder mine on Sultan mountain
is turning out better with every foot of
development. The force has now run
sixty-one feet on the ore body, and about
twenty-five tons of fine ore have been
saved and sacked for shipment. 1t is gray
copper and galena, similar to the ore in
the King, of which vein it is an extension.
G. II. Bib and J. May, who have bond
on the mine, have discovered that the
old Cascade tunnel is run within seventy
feet of the Thunder vein at depth of 25O
feet, and are making arrangements to run
the intervening distance. With this tun-
mel completed this mine will be second

A Serious Mistake,

The old saying of the play of Ham
let with Hamlet omitted is being ex-
ernplifed in the dairy every day.
Here are thousands of dairymen all
oyer the country setting milk in deep
pals aud selling the cream to factor
les and not using ice with those deep
pals. II this is not emitting Hamlet
then we don't know how it could be
done. Deep cans are made for setting
milk in water always below fifty de-
grees, aud it should be at least to
forty-tive; but if allowed to rise above
fifty, then the loss may be all the way
from ten to twenty-five per cent OF
the cream. The owners of factories
should know these facts and so in
struct their help for a double purpose,
to save them from the loss and to get
more and better cream at the factory.
Now is the time to let them know
about this so that they may build ice
houses this fall in time to secure the
ice crop. .

SOLD EVERYWHERE
A Splendid Herd of Elk.

Reader, what would you have given
to have seen, as I have, band OF two
hundred and fifty bull-elk all collected
together on a beautiful piece of green
grassy turf at an elevation of nine
thousand feet? Here was a sight to
make mans nerves tingle. This was
the largest band of bulls, by actual
count, that Ihave ever seen, though
my cousin and partner once saw, in
the fall of the year, including bulls,
COWS, and calves, fifteen hundred.
This was on the memorable occasion
when the only elk ever killed by any
of my men gave up his life, and we
have all concluded that this particu-
lar elk was frightened to death, for
though three men shot at him and
each was confident he hit him, they
always asserted afterward that no
bullet mark could be found on him.

TERRIBLE AFRICAN ANT.
A Voracious Creature Which De-
YOURS Everything Within Its

A Voracious Creature Which De-
YOURS Everything Within Its
Reach. '.-.-
There are a great many species Of
ants in Africa, some of which are
found in vast numbers, says the
New York Advertiser. The most re.
markable and most dreaded of all is
the bashikouay, and is a most
vOraciOus creature, which carries
nothing away but eats it's prey on the
spot. .. 49,.
1t Is the dread of all living animals
of the forest-the elephant, the Loop
ard, the gorilla, and all the insect
wcrld-the man himself iscompelled
to flee before the advance of these
marauders, Or to protect himself by
fire and boiling water. 1t is the habit
OF the bashikouays to march through
theforest IN along, regular line, about
two inches broad or more, and often
miles in length.
All along the line large ants, who
act as officers, stand outside the
ranks and keep the regular army in
order. II they come to a place
where there are no trees to shelter
them from the sun, the heat OF which
they can not bear they Immediately
burrow underground and form tun-
nels. 1t often takes more than
twelve hours for one of these armies
to pass.
When they grow hungry, at a GER
tam command, which seems to take
place all along the line at the same
time, the long file spreads itself
through the forest in a front line and
attacks and devours all it overtakes
with a fury that is quite irresistible.
All the other living inhabitants Of the
forest flee before it. Their advent is
known beforehand; the still forest be-
comes alive with the trampiing of the
elephant, the fight Of the antelope or
OF the gazelle, Of theleopard, ofsnakes,
all the living world, in the same direc-
ton where the other animals are fee
ing away.
Their manner OF attack is an impet-
nous leap. Instantly the strong PIN
GERS are fastened, and they only let go
when the piece gives way They even
ascend to the tops of trees for their
prey. This ant seems to be animated
by q kind of fury.
Sometimes men eondemned to death
are made fast to a tree, and il an army
OF hungry ,bashikouays passes, in a
short time only bare skeletons remain
TO tell the tale.

HERE'S a POINTER.

How to Guess With Some Certainty
on Dates Of Silver Quarters.
At the club the other day one of the
members pulled out handful OF small
change to pay his bill, says the Al
bany Argus.
"Haveyou any quarters?" said one
who was sitting near.
Yes, four. Doyou want to borrow
them?'
"No, But what will you bet that I
cannot guess the dates on them?''
II do not know what your trick is;
but for flyer I will bet the coins
themselves"
Ozone. I will name these dates:
1853, 1854, and two of 1876, Am /
right"
LET me see. One is 1854; this is
1877; this is 1876, and this is 1853.
Youguessed three correctly and miss
ed one. So you owe me q, quarter and
[ owe you rs cents. Now explain
your trick"
ut is no trick. The fancy took me
a few weeks ago to examine the dates
on coins and found that almost
every quarter bears one of these
dates, with an occasional 1856, 1857,
1858, 1878. I suppose more of them
were coined in those years. During
he weeks have been interested in
the subject have seen one 1861. but
not a single other quarter bearing
date in the sixties or in the seventies
except as have mentioned. If one
wanted to bet as we have Just done
we could be sure winner in the long
rum -... -..s
witnessed the transaction, and it
interested me SO that I looked the
matter up. In the. report of the di-
rector Of the mint Hound full ex-
PLANTATION. In that is a table giving
the coinage in different denominations
for each year since the organization
OF the mints. The coinage OF quarters
has fuctuated in most remarkable
way. Beginning with 1850 for three
years the coinage averaged about
$4,000 a year.. Then in 1853 it
jumped up to So, 813,555. In 1854 it
was almost as much, $3,O95,OOO
Then it dropped to $7l4,26O in
1855. In 1856 it was 81, $4,000. In
1857, $2,411, 700, and in 1858, ST.
$4,000: Then it dropped again,
never rising to 100000, and in war
times averaging only $4,000 or &c.
600 except in 1861, when it was 81 >
2l3,650. In 1875 it was $1,O73,3 75;
in 1876. $4,454, 2s7. so; in 1877, So
727, 927.50 Then began the coinage
OF silver dollars by the millions, and
the production of subsidiary coins
dropped way Off. For the past ten
years the coinage on quarters has
averaged only 5000 or $4,000.
just examine the dates on the
quarters that come into your pos
session and see how they bear out
these statistics. For instance, in
1886 there were only ST, Al. SO in
quarters coined, and there are /,

Making the Most Of 1t,

There are some wiseacres who still
maintain that it is easier and more
profitable to grow two tons of hay on
two acres than on one acre, or to praise
forty bushels of corn on four acres
than the same amount from one acre.
1t is safe to say that such persons
keep no account with their farms. 1t
is all guess work and theory. Practi-
cal experience has shown just the re-
verse. The land OF which the most is
made; on which the proverbial two
blades of grass is grown where grew
before, has been proved to be by far
the most economically worked, be-
cause the additional labor and fertiliz-
ing material put upon it cost a good
deal less than required for the larger
and less highly cultivated area. Such
higher cultivation has become a neces-
sity in these days of sharp COMPETE
ton. We heard a successful business
man say recently that his business
had to be run very close nowadays,
the margin OF profit was so small.
The same thing is true in agriculture
Whatev can be saved in labor, wages
and fertilizing material is needed to
make ends meet and leave u little
balance at the end OF the year.

Absorbent Power of Straw,

Some interesting experiments have
been made to determine the absorb
emf power of wheat and other varie-
ties of straw.
In one of these experiments small,
compact bundles of wheat, rye, oat

water so as to be completely covered.
After soaking for twenty-four hours
they we've taken from the water, set
in AN upwright position, and allowed
to drain for half an hour. They were
