WILD BURRos.

There 10 a herd OF wild bsrros
running al will IN the mountains
.near Lake George, says the Flofis-
SAINT Beacon which occasionally
come down TO the lake for water.
The exact number Ii not known.
there may be hundreds, bat one
herd Of twenty has been frequently
seen .as also smaller herds It
different times. Il is ths sappcsi-
sion that they were turned loose
when the railroads were completed
through Colorado, having bssn
used tefore then for packing
merchandise and ore to and frem
the mines .scsttsrcd remotely
throughout the state OF Colorado.
Having run In the mountains for
30 many years, they have become
almost as wild as II they had never
known the uses, and probably
abuses, of civilization, and Il
would probably be worth ones
life to attempt to control them, ~
they have become vicious and un-
ruly. They are Of somewhat bet
ter build than the tame burro. be-
ing larger and more active ir their
movements. II Is a question ~ to
their ownership, one party Ia
Colorado Springs claiming they BE-
ong to him, but IL u generally
supposed they were turned, loose
by different parties and since con-
into herds and increased

ACROSS ALASKA.

Few men have had more practi-
cal experience in Alaska than Mr.
Charles III. Hamilton OF the North
American Transportation & Trad
ing Company, says the Washington
Post. Though young man appar'
emily not more than 20, Mr.. Hamil-
tor can boast OF having mode a
1900 mile journey in Alaska, most
of the way on spowshoes and with
dogsleds, accompanied only by
four Indians.
The company he represents is
engaged in extensive trading oper-
ations in this far North territory,
and has established numerous
trailing posts along the Yukon
river. This river, though flowing
through mountain region, is nav
igable for a distance OF nearly
1000 miles, and at the present time
the company's vessel the p B.
Wesre, craft OF 500 ton burden,
is LAID up for the winter at point
l 800 miles lp the Yukon.
Mr.. Hamilton has with him a
handful of gold nuggets assayed at
between $15 so and $17 TO the.
ounce, taken out near the line of
the British possession. There are
,ix creeks and gulches now being
worked in that district, and during
he 80 days last year when mining
operations could be conducted
about $3.50, 900 worth of gold dust
vas taken out. The year before it
,nly amounted to s65,000. The
opinion of old and experienced
miners now in Alaska is that the
outlook for gold there is far ahead
Il what it ever was in California,
hough no prospecting for quartz
las been done yet.
During the coming mining seq.
on it is expected that in the
leighborhood of s500,000 worth of
old will be produced, as Miller
reek, the bonanza creek of the
district, is in complete work
ng order. There are 81
laims on this creek, almost all OF
7hich will be opened this year.

EN0LAND'S INVESTMENTS.

Gold grabbing has touched the
British pocket nerve until it quiy-
ers. The gold standard was all
right as long as the effect was only
to increase the interest on English
investments. But since the goose in
the old silver-usIng countries which
laid these golden eggs for English
gathering has begun TO shew symp-
toms of fatal exhaustion, the usuri-
GUS Britisher is not so certain
where he stands.
More Engiishmen have been
converted to bimetallism in the
last six months than in the pre-
vious nearly 80 years since the gold
standard was adopted.
Lombard street is not only un
able to collect interest on South
America and AsIatIc investments,
but it lie in danger of losing a great
part of its principal. Debtors fipd
the task Of payment too big for
them.
England is not yet converted
There is no immediate prospect
Of English bimetalIism. The revi-
val there only exemplifies the revi-
val elsewhere. Bimetallism is
coming back and wnen it comes ii
will stay. England may share the
loahle standard with the rest OF
he world or not. The rest of the
world will not wait for her,

From the Albuquerque Citizen.
WORK OF A RASCAL.

| A fellow signing himself "Mosei
Thompson" publishes an advertise
ment in the Chicago Tribune head
ed "Warning" in great big startling
type, In which. he warns all persons
against buying stock in some Min.
neapolis mining company, because
the title is in litigation, and then
adds: Beware of purchasing cor
porate property in New Mexico"
! There is no reason assigned in the
latter case, and no property speei--
fed. 1t is a general assault, with
out any specification or any alleged
cause, upon all the corporate prop
erty sf this territory, evident in
tention being to injure the business
reputation of the territory as q
whole. The warming" appears as
an advertisement. and is evidently
paid for, which shows that the
fellow must have deep seated
grudge against the country. Is he
the same "Moses Thompson" who
attempted to work a mining fake at
Lake Valley about three years ago,
and when his swiniling schemes
there were exposed went over to
Hillsboro and tried to jump two or
three claims belonging to other
parties? IL he is the same "Moses"
he left New Mexico so abruptly that
he didn't concern himself about the

erty" except his own body, for the

LIGHT WEIGHT CATTLE IN
THE LEAD

Drover's Journal.
The demand for different weights
of live stock varies considerably as
the seasons change. Of course in.
fiuences are brought to bear
which occasionally cut some figure,
but usually certain weights com
mand premium at certain times
of the year. There is more or less
demand for all kinds, but some
times heavy weights are wanted
and again light weigh tsa re in the
lead. AT present in the cattle
market there is an unusal demand
for light weights, while heavy
grades are sadly neglected. Prob
ably never have the extreme
weights been SO close together.
Handy little 1000 pound steers
are selling In the same notca with
the big l,5O0-pounders, and not
only that bqt they meet with a
steady outlet, while the big fat
steers have to be sold under diff
cnlties, 1T is very discouraging to
the raiser when he has TO sell
steers which lie has fed for hun
dred days at the same price 900
Id. feeders bring. 1t IS a circum-
stance which d )es not often hap
pen butt is happening now in way
which farmers don't like to think
about. The depression in foreign
markets has curtaIled the export
demand considerably and has been
no small factor in bringing about
this result, though it is usually the
case in the spring of the year that
demand shifts from the heavy to
the light weights. From all indi-
cations light cattle will continue
TO cell best for soine time.

MINING DECISIONS,

Denver Ores and Metals.
Right OF Miners TO Liens Sec.
! OF Session Laws. 1891, gives the
following liens: (l) To every per.
son who shall do work or furnish
materials for the working or devel- :
opment OF any mine, etc; (2) to
every person who shall do work or
furnish material for the working
or development OF any such mine,
in searching for such minerals or
metals; and (3) to all persons who
| shall do work or furnish materials
upon any shaft, tunnel, incline,
adit, drift, or other excavation de-
signed or used for the purpose OF
working or draining any such
mine, lode or deposit. III the term
"any such mine" in the second
clause relate to and means any
mine lode, mining claim or deposit
yielding metals or minerals, then a
lien could not be acquired unless
the search had been awarded by a
discovery OF metals or minerals.
1t is hardly probab!s that the
legislative assembly intended that
the miner who had, at the request
of the owner, performed labor or
furnished materials in developing
mining claim or searching fer
metals or minerals, would be de.
MED the benefit of a lien, because
his labor had not been brought to
light the hidden treasures OF the
earth. Ii that we're the rule then
the miner who, In developing a
claim, discovers indications OF
metals or minerals, could bs dis
charged just before bringing TO
light the object of his search, and
be deprived OF any remedy against
such claim Tor his labor or materi-
ais, while the employer, with
single blow OF the pick or an adj
ditional blast, might reveal the
wealth for which the laborer had
toIled. Such harsh rule could
never had been intended, as it's
effect would be to dis
courage the development OF mines
md the search for metals or miner
lis by men Of moderate means.
Under the law, the prospector or
iisooyeIss OF lands supposed 10
