The Gem Mine sold.

The Gem mine at Gem, Idaho, is
practically sold. The price paid is
81, 100000 and the sale was effected
on the examination and report of Mr.
J. NJ. Burke. The purchasers are
Irish landlords y ho are seeking in
vestmeuts in reliable, well developed
mining property. For three years
past the Gem mine has been one o;
the heaviest producers and best pay
ers in the Occur d'Alenes. The prop
erty is well worth the price asked and
will quickly replace the outlay if
worked on the present basis.
Thus, one after another, the Occur
d'Alene mines are changing hands at
large figures, realizing to their dis
coverers or the people who have not
feared to put their money in to de-
velop them. handsome profits above a
yearly income from the investmen:
while the money was tied up.
In this case the owners have more
than realized on their investment from
the output of the property, and the
sale now pending will be a clean
profit.
Men who have made their money ir
mines are not slow to reinvest it
which in this case, il invested as he
fore would mean the purchase and
development Of at least half dozer
equally as expensive properties.

took entire charge OF it. Her system
was one of so much kindness and cons
sideration toward her employees that
they called her "the lady OF the Bon
Marche," aud looked upon her as
almost saint. She was very pros
porous in the business, and associated
with herself, as stockholders, the chiefs
OF the various departments who had
been faithful in their service. that the y
might share in the profits. Then she
wished to include as many of the
other employees as possible, SO she
ceded part of her shares to CON.

Bum BILE Bees In New Zealand.

The introduction of the humble bee
into New Zealand few years ago to Sc
cure the fertilization of the red clover,
and the remarkable success of this ven
ture are matters of record. In a recent
paper George NJ. Thomson presents an
interesting article on the Bombi intro
duced in New Zealand, giving also a list
of the plants and flowers which are
visited by these bees. He makes the
interesting statement that, with few
exceptions, he has never heard of these
bees visiting the flowers of indigenous
plants, but states that they have become
so extraordinarily abundant that the ques
ton has even arisen in his mind as t
whether they would not become as seri.
Gus pest to the apiarist as the rabbits
have proved to the farmer and cultivator,
on account of their absorbing so much Of
the nectar of the flowers. He also points
out the remarkable fact in connection
with the life of the humble bee in New
Zealand, that in many parts of the colon.
it does not seem to hibernate at all, bu
is to be seen daily on flowers all the yea
round. Insect Life.

rNaLANn,s DRINK EVIL.

Gently in Liverpool on Drink Evil" quoted
Mr.. Samuel Smith, NJ. Z. This latter gen.
tleman, three or four years ago, spoke thus
of the comparative intenperance OF England
and other countries.
81 have often said, and l will say it once
more that we have in the British towns,
mean the towns OF the United Kingdom, the
most drunken residum of population that is
to be found on the face of the earth, and the
most drunken, the most degraded, and the
most hopeless class of people that are to be
found in any civilized country in the world.
a. = There is shameful popularity
about English drunkenness; England stands
alone, so far as l know, for the amount of its
female drunkenness, which is almost unknown
on the continent of Europe. l have hardly
ever heard of drunken woman in the many
journeyings l have made across the con-
tinent.n
"And this" commented Father Sykes, 'is
the greatest and most civilized country on
the face of the earth! Tuis is the great
nation that turns up tine white of its saucti-
monious eyes, and with lie in its mouth
and snuffie through its nose, thanks the
Lord that it is not like other countries, like
priest-ridden Spain, to which it sends its

Remarkable Musical Prodigy.

Blind Boone was born in Miami, Saline
County, Mo-, in 1868. His mother was
a contraband, cooking for Federal SOL
diers. He lost his sight with brain
fever when only six months old. His
first musical instrument was a tin
whistle, on which he could play any or
dinary air alter once hearing it. His
next, with a mouth-organ, charmed all
the young folks of Warrensburg, where
his home was. Some Warrensburg peo-
pie sent him to blind school to learn o
trade, but his bent was towards music,
and the attempt to teach him anything
else was failure. He left school and,
with little company, tramped around
through the State. Finally John Lange,
of Columbia, shrewd, intelligent col
ored man, took hold of the prodigy,
fitted up company, and Boone is now
playing under his management, pleasing
audiences all over the United States and
Canada. He has amassed considerable
fortune, has an elegant home in Colum-
bia, gives literally to every good cause,
and is respected by all his acquaintance.
He is the most remarkable musica
prodigy of the present generation

An Old japanese Diary.

The oldest diary in the world accord
Ing TO q japanese paper, is that OF the
Hozaxa family, landed proprietors Of the
province of Kaschin. The diary has
been conscicntionsly kept by the various
heads of the family for more than three
centuries. 1t was begun at the time of
the fall Of the Takedas, who were mas
tiers of Kaschin under Yortomo, the
great japanese ruler. The pages Of the
ancient books fail to show that the
Hozakas were especially distinguished
either for intellect or prowess. There
Is no doubt, however, that they were con-
scientious in the discharge of their
duties, and lived the peaceful lives Of
Japanese gentlemen. The state Of the
weather was naturally matter of great
Importance to them, and each day they
chronicled its condition. But the books
have other entries rs well. A short time
ago dispute over precedence took
place between two branches Of the same
family in Kaschin, each claiming to be
the original line. The contestants APP
pealed to the lIozaka diary and found
the record OF dinner given several
hundred years ago by the head of the
family to the founder of the side line.
The record even contained the names OF
the dishes eaten at the dinner, and effec-
tually settled the dispute. The various
volumes of the diary now fill eight
chests, and form the chief treasures Of
