) Johnny Rogers is in town from the
Seven Devils. He says there will be
no particular stir up there this season,
as they cannot eat the copper nor get
money out of it until it is placed in
market, and at present there is nc
way to get ont for shipment. The
road to Council cannot be hauled ovel
as a blackboard can hardly 60 over it.
Mr.. Rogers came down to see thu
steamer people and learn if it co ult
not be arranged with the Norma t.
haul ore from the landing near tn
mines to Mineral. This can bs
easily done and can be made sue
cessful, as the river below Mineral
easily .navigable even in low water
there being not less than four an
one half feet in the shallowest places
The copper ore from the Devil
would also greatly facilitate th
smelling of the Mineral ores.

A soft, yellowish, shimmering kero-
sene light permeated the costly fur
nished bric-a-brackish apartment. On a
table at her side were two magazines
and fashion journal; on the other side
the cat.
"This suspense is terrible" said she,
and she uttered two convulsive, impress
i've signs and sneeze-
Again she plunged into the intricacies
of the fashion journal, occasionally
raising her eyes to the half open win
dow. AT last, tired and weary with
gnawing expectancy, she dropped her
head on her hand, emitting three signs
-convulsive and impressive-and an
other sneeze-
At that instant the sharp click of the
gate aroused her, and the tread of
familiar feet sent the blood of her an
cestors rushing through her veins at the
rate of four pounds to the square inch.
"'Tis hei He comesr'
Laying down the fashion journal care
fully and throwing over her shoulders
the remnant of q camel's hair shawl,
she gently stole across the apartment
and opened the porch door-followed by
the cat.

WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

A model of ocean currents is to be ex-
hibited at the Worlds fair which will
possess great practical value.
Only about one man in every thirteen
in the United States can secure one Of
the Columbian souvenir coins.
The Miners association of Nevada
county, Cal, is arranging to have a
small stamp mill in full operation at the
Worlds fair as a part of its mineral dis
play.
The women of Texas are raising money
with which to place statues of Houston
and Austin and busts of Bowe, Crockett,
Travis and Fannin, all celebrated Texas
historical characters, in the state build
ing at the Worlds fair.
New York will exhibit at the Worlds
fair sections of all the trees which are
indigenous to the state. OF these there
are forty-three species and eighty-five
varieties, number which is not ex-
celled, it is claimed, in any state in the
Union.
English music and composers will not
be unrepresented at the Worlds Column
bian exposition next year. Among those
who have accepted an invitation to at
tend is DIR. A. G. Mackenzie, who will
conduct performance of his "Rose of
Sharon" or some other work.

fmentary rocks of the world are charac-
terized by certain fossils of animals and
plants which they contain. The rocks
are classified by their fossil which in.
dictate the age of the forma on in each
case and the age at whic' it was laid
down. Thus the study O. The rocks is
the study of the fossils in them, and we
call that study 'paleontology.' By its
aid we learn the history of this earth on
which we live-the details of its build.
ing and the story of the development of
life upon it.
"Paleontology is the basis of geolog-
ical science. II has elevated mining
from mere guesswork TO the status of
exact knowledge. All the work Of the
mining engineers of the world depends
upon it. The most valuable minerals
are sought for and discovered by the
study of the rock formations, which can
only be traced by their fossils. All the
coal in the United States is mined by
such means. Many beds of iron are ir
like manner related to the sedimentary
rocks. All the lead of Iowa and Mis-,
souri, and the silver of Colorado are OBJ
tanned from rocks whose bearing veins
and lodes are traced by the fossils they
contain. Thus you will perceive that
in great measure the riches of the earth
are derived from and civilization de-
ponds upon paleontology.
"Paleontology is recognized as the
basis of all the geological surveys of
Europe and Asia. Next after paleontol.
ogy in point of Importance comes the
study of the chemistry of rocks, and
after chemistry 'hthology'-that is, tn.
study of the crystals of rocks-is to be
considered. Incidentally an interesting
and valuable contribution to science is
afforded by studying the animals and
plants whose remains are found pre-
served in the rocks. They tell the story
of the life history of the world. How.
ever, that is only matter of secondary
importance. Let me add that every
state geological survey thus far made,
as well as every geological survey ex-
ecuted by the United States, has been
based on paleontology."
"a secondary end of paleontology is
the calculation of the past history Of
life upon the earth" said Professor W.
J. MCGEE, 1.-THE applications and uses of
the knowledge thus acquired are many
and varied, and yet they pertain chiefly
to pure science, which is now, as it ever
has been, the foundation for the future
It is the knowledge of today that enables
men not only to predict but to control
the events Of tomorrow. The simpleex-
periments and speculations of Watt
produced the steam locomotive of later
generation; the electrical toys of Msrse
and a Henry yielded the telegraph, the
telephone and the electric motor.
"Thus far the cultivation of paleon-
tology as a pure science has not yielded
its fullest fruit except in its application
as the basis for the classification of the
rocks of the earth, but there are not
wanting conservative students who hold
that the study of the course of life ia
the past will indicate the safest direction
for future guidance, with respect not
only to domestic animals and plants
yielding food supplies, but even for man
himself. "-Washington Star.

Large ears, dropping at the top, be-
long to persons more animal than hu-
man.
In human beings Of low or debased
mental standard the ears are large and
fiabby-note those idiots, cretins, etc.
Ears in which the chem" is fat, as if
smoothed down with fatiron, accom-
pany a vacillating mind and cold, un-
romantic disposition.
When there is no lobe and the ear
widens from the bottom upward, the
owner is of a selfish, cunning and re-
vengeful disposition.
Large round ears, with neat "hem'
around their border, well earved-not
fat-indicate strong will and bull
dog tenacity of purpose.
When the ear is oval in form, with
the lobe slightly but distinctly marked,
it indicates for its owner lofty ideality,
combined with a morbidly sensitive ma
cure.
The person who has an ear with a
rounded, ovate top is almost without
exception one with placid disposition
and nature that pines to love and be
loved in return. Exchange.
