most promising placer mines in the
state. Their facilities for working the
ground are all that could he desired,
and best OF all the yellow metal is

The gold is coarse and heavy and is
worth about sic An ounce. The pay
ing ground extends from peck's bar to

nearly ID miles. About three miles
above Peck's bar Hobson 4 Hoover

Above Yogo, Messrs. Williams, King,

and getting ready to work a large
force OF men. Iessrs. Gibson and Car
rol are Operating the old Weatherwax
mill and the returns are OF such char
acter as to encourage the miners to

little doubt but that Iogo will regain
old time prestige as mining camp
and that hundreds OF men will he at
work within the next few months tax

LONDON POLICEMEN.
They Cost the English Metropolis Ten Mi
lions q Year For Their Services.

They Cost the English Metropolis Ten Mill
lions Year For Their Services.
1t costs close upon SO, 600, 600 a
year to police London. There are in
the metropolitan police force Is, ,040
men of all ranks, and their pay, cloth
ing and equipment alone cost the
taxpayers of the big city Fl 343, 959 a
year. Then there is the pay of the
commissioners, doctors, clerical staff
and workmen generally, the mainte-
nance of stations and offices and the
Thousand and one miscellaneous items
of cost in the operation of the de-
paItment, which brings the total cost
of the machinery for guarding the
peace of the British metropolis few
pounds short of ~. 900, 900 a year
There are IL, SIS ordinary police
men on the force. They are called
"constables," there being only one
grade below that of sergeant. The
pay of a constable varies between "a
shillings week. the pay of new re-
cruit. and fSS l2s. lid. a year, the
maximum pay of an ordinary con-
stable There We're last year l 1,099
men on the London police force re-
ceiving ~ shillings a week, which Is
scarce S6 American money, although
the mere comparison of money value
is. of course. no criterion of the ade-
quacy of the pay for the police.
Clothing is supplied to the constables
free. or if. from any reason of special
duty. the constable does not draw his
supply of clothes from the govern
ment stores he receives f5 year IN
place of the clothing.
The matter of allowance Is an i'm
portant one in the remuneration re-
ceived by every member of the force.
Constables, for instance, receive an
allowance of coal money when they
are not living in the stations. Mar
ried men get fourpence a week and
single men threepence halfpenny a
week. Married men living in sta
tions receive 40 pounds of coal a
week the year round, single men 40
pounds "a week III winter and 20
pounds in summer. This item of coal
allowance amounted TO fl4, 050 last
year.
The London policeman has by no
means so good job as far as remu-
neration Is concerned as has the New
York policeman, making all allow
ance for tine difference in compare
tive values there and here. Nor has
he nearly SO fine place IN com
parison with the lot of the average
Londoner as the New York police
man has compared with that of the
average New Yorker Indeed the
London policeman is poorly paid
even as pay goes in England.-New

THE MINES WILL CLOSE.
James Shields, Manager of the Belt Plant
Orders 1t Closed Down.

James Shields passed through here
yesterday on his way to Butte from
Chicago. L. j. Shields, his brother,
who is superintendent ut the Belt
mines, and who came III from Butte Fri.
day for that purpose, met him at this
point and laid before him the trouble
of the company with their men at the
mines. After hearing the account OF
the matter for the first time, Mr..
Shieldseame to a prompt decision and
ordered all operations at Belt on the
part of the company stopped, the
mines closed down and the store shut
up, declaring that he preferred to stop
operations for this year entirely to
having any trouble with the men or
submitting to the demands which he
regarded as unreasonable. Mr.. j. J.
Shields left for Belt yesterday to exc
cute the orders of the manager. This
action of thecompany will leave about
400 men out of employ yment.-Great

Music composed whIle You w.it.


1t would certainly appear that
when man may run in and have a
song set to music while he waits for
so cents or 81 the end of the century
is getting pretty close at hand. There
are places in New York where this
is done daily. By the side of and in
competition with this modern COM
poser the late Beethoven, Chopin, ct
al, would not be in it." Musical
composition at these places is mere
matter of time. You rush up stairs
with your verse or idea, the composer
looks at the clock. seizes a pencil and
blank score. mounts the piano stool
and goes at it. When he gets through,
which in a measure depends upon
the difficulty or ease with which he
can satisfy you, the time is taken,
you pay your money and depart with
the composition. The time charge is
about that of bricklayer. printer
and other notable arts.-Pittsburg

TOBACCO SEASON STARTED
There IL a Light Crop In wCs'e rn
~ &. This Year.

Tobacco men were surprised day or
two ago when the first of the seasons
tobacco was brought to the city to be
sold. This established a new record, as
the season does not open as Il usual
thing until much later. None of The out
side luycrs have as yet come to Ashc.
vile.
The first break was secured by Car
tcr's warehouse on Patton avenue. The
tobacco was priminss of the new crop,
and was brought in by ]. =. Lewis of
Haywood. Prices averaged first rate,
from 10 to II cents being paid.
1t is said in warehouse circles that this
years crop of tobacco will not pan out
as heavily as those of former years. The
acreage in Western North Carolina is
said to he not more than GO per cent. OF
the usual size, and although the yield is
fairly good the amount of tobacco will
be considerably decreased on this ac.
count. The shortage is accounted for
bv the facts that the freeze in March
killed many of the plants aud in May
and June, when the growers were about
to reset their plants the drv weather was
against them and caused manv to plant
corn instead.
There will be three warehouses it
