MINES ARE MADE"

There is a tendency amongst cap
italists to overlook this great source
of wealth and field for investments
simply because they are unacquaint-
ed with mining matters and mining
as business, says the Salt lake Ex-
change Journal. They look upon
mining as question of luck only,
being ignorant of the fact that
"Mines are made" in ninety-nine
cases out of a hundred-not found.
The greatest source of wealth that
this state possesses is her mines, which
are rich beyond computation and
inexhaustible and yet men of means
will hardly credit this statement
that any one mine ever produced
million dollars, let alone ten million
and would almost as soon believe. in
an assertion that the silver they
jingle in their pockets grew on trees
like apples. They are incredulous
and their ideas about mines and min
ing are very vague and misty. The
Ontario has produced $4,000, 600 on
an original investment of $50, 600
and yet this sum was necessary to
make this mine producer and the
returns have been kingly.
And still any of our capitalists
can secure today just as good an
investment in almost any of the min
ing claims offered by impecunious
claim holders. These claims require
capital to make mines of them. 1t
is estimated that it-costs $1S a foot
to sink a shaft or drive tunnel.
Some poor prospector has claim
that has splendid indications, but he
is stuck; the $1S to sink one foot is
lacking, let alone the means to sink
200 feet to where vast treasures
await his enterprise and pluck. 1t
is rarely that he can secure help fol
capital is afraid of him and afraid Of
the mining business, and yet an in.
vestment in good properties is sure
to yield enormous returns. The best
mining men are practical miners
They know good thing when they
see it and as general thing they
keep their success to themselves ant
if they can quietly buy up all prom
ising prospects, while the ordinary
business man hears but little of min
ing matters unless it is some saltet
mine or clever brick swindle. There
is big money in mining and we hop'
to see the day when the mining in
dustry will occupy a more prominen
position in the business transaction
of our moneyed men.

|ishment in Colorado treats a still

lishment in Colorado treats a still
larger amount of ore, purchasing
with avidity everything offered,
particularly such refractory ores as
the lead smelter refuse as too difficult
and pays large profits, while compet-
ing against every known form of
reduction process. AT an establish
ment in Montana, where gold ores
are treated by mating, the so-called
pyritic process is in use, the disting-
uishing feature being the employ
ment of iron pyrites, not only as nux,
but as a fuel-a most valuable and
interesting discovery, full>of promise
for the future.
An ordinary lead furnace, water
jacketed, makes a very good mating
furnace with a slight change at the
bottom, costing but few hundred
dollars. The other apparatus of the
lead plant requires no change unless
it be increased blowing power.
Smaller stacks than those mentioned
are often used for mating, but the
large ones are more profitable and
easier managed and kept in order.
A large blast furnace sllllfully
handled and provided with sufficient
ore to enable long campaigns to be
made, is by long odds the best divi-
dend paying plant in the world.
The gross output of single furnace
may foot up a million dollars in a
year.-H. Lang, in Mining and

A VOICE FROM ATLANTA
Mrs. Iverson Denies the Soft
Impeachment.
SENATOR HILL is SAYING NOTHING

The Southern Lady Apparently Much Put
Out over the Rumor-says she Would
Not Know the Statesman Should She
See Him Again.
ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 15.-The report ol
Senator Hills engagement to Mrs. Fan
ME Iverson, of Atlanta, is unequivocally
denied.
She met Senator Hill Eve years ago on
his first visit to Atlanta at one of the re.
ceptions rendered him here. The report
of their engagement was circulated q
short while after Mr.. Hills visit at that
time, and the report has been revived at
intervals.
To ascertain the truth or falsity of the
rumors reporter called upon Mrs Iver-
son. Although somewhat indisposed by
constant nursing of one of her little boys,
Mrs. Iverson granted the reporter an in
terview, and upon hearing the object Of
his visit assured him in the most EN-.
phatic manner that there was absolutely y
no ground for the association of her name
with that of the New York Senator
''Why," said the lady, 81 have never
met Senator Hill but once, and that was
but for very brief period at a reception
in this city when l, in common with
many other Georgia ladies, was formally
presented. / am sure that / should not
know Senator Hill if / should meet him,
and feel quite sure in asserting that he
would not know me.
''The publicity these rumors have occa-
stoned is exceedingly embarrassing to me
and l suppose they are equally so to
Senator Hill. / have been so annoyed
about the matter chat it has become II
necessity for me to decline to answer the
telephone. really cannot conceive how
the story was started and L trust it may
be speedily dropped. When the rumors
first reached me some time ago, Mrs
Barret called on me in connection with
the matter and l then as now with great
surprise pronounced them entirely un-
founded.
Mrs. Iverson is justly regarded as one
of the most beautiful women in the
South. In manner she resembles Mrs.
Grover Cleveland and as her friends here
claim, she certainly has all the attributes
that go to making up an ideal Southern
woman.
1t has been stated that Mrs. Iverson
met Senator Hill in New York during the
winter and that he had there paid her
marked attention. This statement the
lady pronounced erroneous, reiterating
her statement that she had met the
Senator but once and that was at the
reception given him in this city hereto
fore mentioned.

Hippolyte was on the point of setting out

hostile sentiment toward Hippolyte at the

Naturally, therefore, the leaders in the
North felt that they were entitled to a
large representation in Hippolyte's Cabi-
net.
"At first they had nothing to complain
of, rs the President, it is said, gave the
portfolios almost exclusively to the men
who had helped him to conquer. Lat
terly, however, it is charged, he has
filled vacancies as they occurred with
men Of the South-men who fought
against him under the banner of Legitime.
"The Cape Region has not only resented
this exclusion of their representatives.
from among Hinpolyte's advisers, but
has grown very jealous Of what appears

it is easily understood that they bestow

TRUMPBoUR ON TRIAL.
The Case Against the Kingston Bank De
fauIter Opened.

The Case Against the Kingston Bank De
fauIter Opened.
KINGSTON, N. Y, Nov. 10. The trial
of Matthew T. Trumpbour, one of the de-
faulting officers of the Ulster County
Savings Institution, was commenced yes.
terday afternoon before Judge Fursman,
of Troy. The court room was thronged
with spectators when the trial opened.
The present trial is on an indictment
against Trumpbour for perjury, in swear
ing falsely to a report returned to the
State Banking Department as to the tinan-
cial condition of the bank.
District Attorney Vanderlyn and ex.
Attorney General Schoonmaker appear
for the People, and Hon. William Louns-
berry and u. NJ. Dewitt for the prisoner.
An extra panel of 800 jurors was sum
moned, and the balance of the day was
occupied in securing jurors, many being
disqualified for various reasons.
1t is believed that the trial will occupy
the greater portion OF the week.
At the conclusion of the Trumpbour
trial the indictment for perjury against
Ostrander, another officer of the institu-
tion, will be tried.
Both of the defendants were present in
court. Trumpbour has been confined in
Jail for the past two weeks, his bondsmen
having surrendered him.
He looks to be a physical wreck, and
his counsel endeavored to stave off the
trial on the ground of Trumpbours
physical and mental condition, but was
not successful

perately at His Execution.
NEW HAVEN, Nov. 10. Andrew Petrillo
was hanged in the New Haven county
Jail yesterday. The drop fell at 10:4t
o'clock. AT 1888 the body was cut down
and life pronounced extinct by the sur
geons in attendance.
The crime for which Petrillo was
hanged was a cold -blooded premeditated
murder. He was an inveterate gam ble1
and made great deal of money by sue
cessful "monte throwing"
One of his victims was Michael Demeo,
his brother-in-law, who kept saloon
on Lafayette street, this city. Petrillo won
money from him repeatedly before Demec
realized that he was being swindled
He resolved to get eveniand win some
of his money back, 80 he engaged a pro
fessional gambler from New York tc
come to this city and play ''monte" with
Petrillo. The gambler came and Petrillc
fell into the trap.
The New Yorker was more skilful than
he was, and in one sitting won over 5000
from him
Petrillo afterwards learned of the
game Demeo had put upon him, and
demanded his money back. Demeo re.
fused, whereupon Petrillo swore ven.
geance
On Saturday night, April IS, 1891, Pc.
trillo met his brother-in-law on a street
corner near his saloon and again de.
manded his money back. Demeo again
refused, and Petrillo shot him through
the heart, killing him instantly.
Fully 500 people were in the Jail yard
and witnessed the execution.
Petrillo awoke cheerful and joked with
the death watch, but when the sheriff
arrived to read the death warrant, he
broke down and cried aloud.
While he was being bound he repeat,
edly shouted police and struggled desper-
ately.
He kept up the cry of police until the
trap was sprung.
The execution was bungling job, the
culprit slowly strangling to death, moan
ing at intervals of few seconds until
life was extinct.
