The Pollard mill is running
steady on small lots of custom ore

well and has a large body of fail
grade ore in sight.
T. B. McJilton is running the old
Pioneer mine, and is meeting with
some success.
Kelly, Lothrop and Co., are work.
ing the old Columbia mine in Spring
Valley and are finding good ore.
A. Lalonde and company are
shipping ore to the Franklin aras-
tras and expect good returns. This
is a new find and may prove very
valuable.
Geo. Foote and company have
built new mill on their old mill
site, and are doing good work; they
are at present crushing ore from
their own mine.
Murphy, Byers and Co., have
opened up a new lead in the Spring
Valley, which has given considera-
BILE promise. Assays taken from
the vein thus far, run from $19. to
$50. Silver predominates.
The new tunnel starting from
American ravine, which is to tap
the numerous lodges west of town,
has been let to contractors, and is
progressing rapidly, and there is no
doubt that an enterprising piece OF
work as this, must surely tap ore
in that prolific section, and add to
the prosperity of the town.
There are but few men working
for wages here now, but there are no
idlers, for as soon as a man gets out
of job, he takes his little pick and
shovel, tackles some bleak hillside,
and is soon out of sight. DUDE.

THINGS PREFERRED TO WEALTH.
Few People Actually So Constituted as to

lie satisfied with 1t Alone.
As a matter of fact, the chief i'm
preston produced by great wealth,
even in America, is simply curiosity,
not admiration. hardly even envy.
There are many things that people
really value more than wealth at any
time-perhaps, thinks Harper's Bazaar,
valuing wealth only as a means for
these things. In youth people prize
amusement pleasure, love; and wealth
is thrown away recklessly for the sake
of such ends. After the maturer tastes
are developed people have no objection
to wealth for the sake of other aims
which it may promote, but it IS not
substitute for those aims. The artist
loves art, the man of science loves
science. the student loves study,
the inventor loves invention, the
domestic man loves home. Even the
man Of action loves action mainly as
thing attractive in itself lie would
readily accept wealth as means Of
achieving his other purposes, but he
would not sell those purposes for

does not; indeed, he often impOver-

SOME COMPENSATION.
Cine Reason why a Confederate Ofncer
Was RecoRcilcd.


There is well-known man in the
south who N the civil war, rode for
four years in confederate saddle. He
often talks of those days, for he loves
the army and he was made for a sol

straight as an arrow, and heavily built
without being in the slightest degree

than he, with his erect figure, his fine
ly grizzled hair, firm, straight nose.
keen eyes, the bronze of a soldiers
skin, and his gray mustaohe aud impe-
rial, making him every inch field
marshal. A gallant soldier was lost
when the war closed, or, better still, a
gallant soldier was lost when the gen
eral joined the confederate cause, for
had he been in the union army, as he
himself says, he would never have left
it and to-day he would wear on his
broad breast Uncle Sans gold buttons,
gleoming on a field of blue.
The general was talking of the war
recently with northern man at
of his clubs. As the memories of his
soldier days came back TO him his strong
eyes began TO fash and in his face
shone the color Of en- thusiasm. He told
how he loved it all-the discipline, the
dash, the excitement, the vigorous
action Of work IN the saddle, and the
attractions of gay soldiers lWe. Then

REIGN OF KING COTTON.
Why It Became Supreme I'm the South
Immediately After the War.

Why It Became Supreme I'm the South
Immediately After the War.
Promising as was the industrial adj
was IN its agriculture that the chief in
terests of the people were cenfered,
says tie Engineering Magazine. Here
was displayed an energy as great as
that which opened up TO civilization
the vast praixies OF the west; here was
well-rounded growth which neither
the south nor any other part of the
country has been able to duplicate since
the war. Cotton was indeed king, but
1t was non such an absolute monarch as
1t has been since 1865 nor as grain has
been Ii the west Instead OF being tho
main crop of the south 1t was largely a
surplus crop. Tho south did not then
have its 'snokehouse and corn crib in
the weSt"-this was one of the disasters
OF the war-but It produced It's own
corn, wheat and bacon. The war
changed these conditions. 1t left such
universal poverty that men were COM
PEELED TO grow cotton alone, because the
crop would be nnrtgaged before it was
planted for enough at least to secure a
bare living for the planter while be
waited for 1t TO nahlre- On no other
crop could advances DO secured In this
way. When the crop had been gathered
and turned over to themerchaat who had
been Carrying" him, and out Of its
proceeds the debt for goods bought on
credit including interest and commits
sions-had been paid, the farmer had
nothing left As the DeXt season came
around he was again compelled to mort
gage his crop in advance to the man to
whom he.was already in debt 1t was
''a condition and not theory that con-
fontod the farmers of the south and
necessarily it has taken years for them
TO gradually work out of it. Moreover,
the negroes, "intoxicated with free
DOM" had many hard lessons to learn.
While they had nothing in the world on
which TO start, they were financially
nbont as well of as their late master,
for. at least, they had no debts to in
cumher them for years 10 come. Cotton
was the easiest crop for them to cult
vate, and so they all began to grow cot
ton buying western corn and bacon on
credit from the merchant who had q
mortgage ON the cotton before the
ground was pio~ed for its planting.
Working on shares-that is paying
part of the crop for the rent of the land
they cultivated-and moving about fire.
uRently, they had no induceInent to try
TO improve the soil So, while the ag-
gregate acreage annually increased, the
total production of the south's crops
fell far short Of the yield per capita be-
tween 1850 and 1860.

THE SENSE OF SMELL
Perhaps There Is a Special c ell in the BRAIN
fer Each odor.

ASI I-Hu1 t~NoES
What a marveleusly delicate mo-
chinery Is set in motion when we smell
the fragrance of q roSel Simple rs that
pleasurable sensation seems TO us> 1t m
wolves the activity of agencies and
forces that the imagination can scarce
ly grasp. 1t has been shown that the
minute cells al the ends OF the olf4c-
tory nerves in the nose bear the rnosa
deItcate little hairs, and it is believed
that these hairs are the active agents
in producing the sense of smell
Yet when we come to inquire into the
manner of operation of these cells and
hairs we find that it is even more won
derful than the delicacy of the mechan-
ism itself
1t has been suggested that at least
one special cell and the nerve fiber con-
Meeting it with the brain may be af-
{octed by each different speu-producIng
substance But, as Prof. Rutherford
remarked at a meeting of the British as
sociation last August: 1T would be a
somewhat serious stretch of magma
ton to suppose that for each new smell
Of substance yet to emerge from the
retort of the chemist there is in waiting
q special nerve terminal IN the nose"
He THINKS it is more reasonable TO
suppose that ali the hairs Of the olfac-
tory cells are affected by every smell
producing sU bstaucc and that the differ
ent qualities of smell result from differ
ence in the frequency and form of the
vibrations transmitted through those
cells 10 the brain.
According TO this view there is
something in musk, something in
the rose, something in the viole,
and the lilac, something IN
every substance, which produces q
smell either agreeab! or often
sive, that is able so TO affect the hairs
and cells of the olfactozy machinery Of
the nose as 10 set their connecting
nerves in vibration, and the rate of tins
vibration varies for every different sub
stance.
We are reminded that the differences
of both sounds and colors also result
from variations in the rate OF vibration,
although sounds are produced by the
air, and coLors by that mysterious medi-
TN called the lunipifeyous ether. II
smells also result from varying vIb-a-
tons what a surprising glimpse Of tbs
inner unity Of nature that fact gives UsI
