A Ghastiy Find.

A few days ago Jase Lothrop, who
has some mining locations on the ridge
between Silver City and Spring Valley,
made a CHASTITY discovery in an old
shaft he was cleaning out. The shaft
was about thirty feet deep and at the
bottom Jase came upon a quantity Of
bones that showed that q human being
and a horse had found death in the
shaft at some future time. The human
bones were evidently those OF q wo-
man, and the teeth in the skull also
indicated this fact, as we'll as the find
ing Of silk and only one stirrup from
the saddle worn by the horse. The
tragedy must have occurred many
years ago, but old settlers carnot re-
member Of the strange disappearance
Of any woman, and the find will prob
ably always remain a mystery

Curieus New.pnper Heats,

One Of the biggest newspaper
beats" in twenty years was achieved
by La Nacion, a little newspaper pub
lished in the Argentine Republic.
This newspaper published the news Of
the accident to the Victoria a day
ahead Of every other paper in the
world, and the news Of the disaster
was known in Buenos Ayrss before it
was in London. The dispatch to the
British government announcing the
disaster lay twelve hours unopened in
the admiralty office. Meanwhile the
news had been stolen off the wires and
sent by a friend of the Argentine paper
to La Nacion, which was able to pub
lish il in advance of all its contempt
raries. Such, at any rate, is the story
of the beat" as it is related here in
newspaper row. It is safe to say that
any Of the leading American newspa-
pers would have given thousands Of
dollars to have obtained exclusive in
telligence Of the Victoria disaster,
enabling it to beat the world with the
news. La Nacion's "beat" seems to
have been a case not Of enterprise, but
OF good luck.-New York Ledger.

A Young Woman.s Tact.

There was q pretty touch Of courtesy
in q Brooklyn church on a recent Sum
day. After the service began some
late corners, evidently strangers. were
shown, other seats being occupied, to
the very front pew. There were four Of
them and they scrupulously followed
the routine Of worship, rising and re-
naming seated. as they noticed those
around them doing. Atthe hymn be-
fore the sermon, having stood during
the singing Of all the others, they rose
as well. II is the custom Of the congre-
CATION, however, to sit for this hymn,
and the four stood alone when the first
note was struck.
Only for a few seconds, for a young
woman, q church member, who saw
the mistake, rose TO her feet TO share
the situation with them. An old gen.
tleman just behind her followed suit.
another at his side joined the stand
ers. and in less than a minute the
entire congregation was on its feet,
put there by the quick tact of one
young woman. And the strangers
knew they had blundered.-N.

Walter Besant has returned to Eng
land from his visit to the Worlds Fair.
His principal impressions we're sum-
med up to an interviewer as follows:
"The thing which struck me most was
the fact that you have not seen Amer
lea at all until you have been to Chi
cage. New York is not America, New
York is a cosmopolitan city Boston is
not America, Boston is old; Philadel-
phia Is not America, Philadelphia is
asleep. But at Chicago you are in the
very heart OF the country-you are at
the centre Of everything. Chicago will
be to America what Babylon formerly
was to Asia. The city and its inhabi-
tants are young. They are rich in re-
source. They are full Of confidence.
They do not care what they spend.
Consider what sums they have laid
out over the exhibition. we do not
mind'-that is what they seemed to
say-'let the thing be a dead failure,
il it will; We can get plenty more mill
ions later on These good people do
not want to save, and they have no
desire to endow a family. They give
away enormous sums" The great
novelist should be invited 10 San Fran
cisco's Midwinter Fair. He has not
journeyed far enough West yet, and
consequently has incomplete opinions

MINING ASSESSMENT LAW.

Senator Wolcott has introduced in
the Senate a bill to suspend for one
year the operations OF the federal min
ing law, which requires 800 worth Of
work to be done on each mining claim
each year until a patent is granted.
The bill is q very proper one, and
should receive the approval Of both
houses Of Congress.
Unless this is done there are man
who will forfeit their claims, many Of
which have had several hundred dol
lars worth Of work done on them.
There are but few miners in any Of
the districts in the mountains but have
one or more claims on which more or
less assessment work has been done.
They work for wages during the busy
season and use their earnings TO de-
velop their own properties. The clos
ing down Of the silver mines and the
general cessation Of work has thrown
30 many men out Of employment and
compelled them to seek labor else
where that grave injustice will be done
to thousands Of honest and hard work.
ing men II the relief proposed in this
measure is not granted. AS soon az
the year expires all claims of this class
will be iumpable II Senator wolcott's
bill Is not passed.
As there can be no possible objec.
ton to the measure, and it Is in the
interest Of Justice, as we'll as Of a large
class OF citizens in all the mining
States and Territories, the News hopes
to see it passed at as early a day as
possible.-Denver News.

will reach $4,000 900.

The Cleveland Plaindealer says:
One Of the Tucker jurors, who was dis

money was owing, but nevertheless
