PRODUCTS OF THE MINES.

IT is estimated that Butte, Mon,
will produce 13o,OOO,oOO pounds of cop
per this year.
THE largest gold nugget ever found
in Colorado weighed thirteen pounds;
the largest in the United States
weighed ISL pounds and ounces;
largest in the world, 1923 pounds and
4 ounces.
THE outlook for successful salt in
dustry in the state of Washington is
reported to be very promising, as that
mineral has been discovered in several
places.

In the land of the Moslem, the coun-
try of the followers of Mahomet, the
true prophet, a Moslem grave, when
once filed in, is never to be opened on
any account. With a view to remove
the faintest chance of any grave being
thus defiled the Moslems plant cy-
press tree on every grave Immediately
after the interment, which makes the
Moslem cemeteries resemble forests.
Two hundred millions, or fourteen per
cent. of the human race, profess Mo-
hammedanism. A year or two ago
some missionaries were sent to this
country in order to seek its conversion
to the s'true faith" Turkey is the
only portion of Europe occupied in
force by Moslems, but they abound in
many parts of Asia. In the island of
Timor burials are much delayed owing
to the necessity of gathering funds for
the burial feast, which in most cases
means ruin to the family. After the
feast comes the burial; as soon as the
grave is filed in young cocoanut
palm is planted upon it.

Shows All the Minerals.

An interesting thing is monument
in the Mines and Mining building.
Having for a base a huge chunk of
bituminous coal, it represents the &C
tual amounts in their proper order of
minerals, ores and precious stones
mined per second in the United States.
1t is clever idea and is well gotten
up. Beginning with the base, which
is cube some five feet each way, the
order is as follows: Bituminous coal,
anthracite coal, limestone, natural gas
local equivalent), petroleum, iron ore,
granite, salt, sandstone, phosphate
rock, Vermont marble, gypsum, marls,
mineral waters, slate, grindstone,
pyrites, tale, lead, copper. mineral
paint, flint, bauxite, manganese ore,
infusorial earth, sulphur, chronic iron
ore, silver, novaculite, aluminium, gold,
precious stones.

A LAND OF PHENOMENA.

Strange Results Produced by Storms in
the Northern Half of Borneo.
The northern half of the island of
Borneo is the queerest and most unsat-
isfactory place to live that one can
imagine, says writer in the Globe
Democrat. 1t is land of constant re-
curing phenomenal where cyclones are
frequent and deluges of water very
common. The vegetation in that half
is very fine, but in all probability the
widest and most tangled on earth
not even excepting that of Africa.
The cause of all the trouble is the
shallow condition of the sea north of
it, great shoals of sand existing few
miles out which extend along it's en-
tire northern length. These shoals
are covered by depth of water not
over five feet deep. The constantly
recurring winds that blow in that eli
mate change to hurricanes and sweep
the smaller islands of all visible life.
When such storm strikes the sand
shoals north of Borneo it sweeps up the
shallow salt water into it's course and
drenches the island with it. Often it
gathers up sand, great masses of it,
from the clear swept shoal and whirls
it for miles high over the island, carry
ing it into the inland and scattering it
everywhere. The work of these
storms does not always end with that.
Entire shoals of fish, of all sizes, have
been swept up time and again by the
fierce wind with the water and sand
and scattered about Borneo. In some
places the ground would be literally
covered with fish, enough to supply a
heavy population for weeks. But
such luck is no reparation for the evil
the winds do, and consequently the
northern half will never be inhabited
by those who value their lives.

A rather formidable compe titor of
the cycle has made it's appearance in
the Midlands in the shape IF pneu-
matte road skate. 1t has lately been
seen in the streets of Birmingham,
and, judging from the admiration it
excites, is not unlikely to find its way
soon into all parts of the country.
The invention, which was patented
short time ago by Scotch firm, is evil
IDENTIFY derived from the old roller
skate of skating rink celebrity, but,
whereas the ordinary roller skate has
four wheels, the pneumatic skate has
oaly two placed in line at either ex-
tremity Of the skate. The wheels are
rather larger than those of the roller
skate, and instead of solid rubber are
covered with pneumatic tires. The
patcntees claim for them that one can
skate over ordinary turnpike roads
with them the same as on ice and at
even greater speed, while at the same
time they will easily ascend and de-
scend hills. Six or seven miles an
hour, however, is the maximum speed
attempted in the streets of Birming-
ham, and that only on smooth roads.
One obvious advantage of the pneu-
matte skate over the pneumatic cycle
is that punctured tires may be readily
replaced, as the skater may carry sur
plus tires, or even reserve wheels ready
fitted, in his overcoat pocket.

BOON TO THE WEARY.


Public Comfort Building at jackson Park
Opened at Last.
The Public Comfort building in Jack
son park is now ready for use. 1t
stands just across the street north of
the Woman's building and little way
from the Fifty-nipth street entrance.
The structure has the appearance of
large summer pavilion, being light,
airy and roomy. The main part is two
stories high, with a round top roof
over an immense central court. On
the east and west ends are circular pa
vilions one story high with fat roofs,
surmounted by pagodas. To the north
extends two-story stem. The build
ing throughout is furnished with all
the conveniences for the comfort and
accommodation of guests. It is in
tended as place where people can go
to rest, eat and be refreshed. The
court, surrounded at the second story
by a balcony, will be literally fur
nished with chairs, settees and tables.
In the circular pavilions there will be
cafes, with lunch counter attachments
and lemonade and soda water foun-
tains. There will also be a liberal
number of free closets and washing
rooms and few private apartments to
which persons in need of quiet may
retire. When ready for use this build
ing will doubtless become one of the
most popular on the grounds. It
fronts to the south and has three
large entrance doors. There are also
doors opening out on circular balconies
north of the two pavilions at the east
and west sides.
On the second floor are several small
er rooms where privacy may be OBJ
tanned. The walls and ceilings are
plastered and windows in abundance
on all sides will give entrance to any
breezes that may be stirring on hot
days.

Ex-senator Evarts Finds His Farm in YER
mont a Costly Toy.
''It costs considerably more to run
farm than people imagine remarked
a man to a Boston Herald reporter.
GA man may support yacht, go off on
long cruises, entertain literally, and
gain the reputation of being hail fell
low well met: but oftentimes, it has
been asserted, the running of a farm
is still more costly. People as rule
labor under the impression that the
returns more than offset the outlay.
They figure that the owner raises
enough vegetables and fruit to last
him from year to year, and the fact
that he can enjoy homemade butter
is something not to be disregarded in
summing up the profit and loss.
'Now, that idea is entirely errone-
Gus, which 1 think l can prove to your
satisfaction" Then settling himself
in his seat, the speaker went on to tell
of the agricultural experience of Will
liam M. Evarts, the famous New York
larwyer, who has just celebrated his
golden wedding on his farm. He rea-
lized at one time, it has been said, an
income of over fifty thousand dollars
yearly from his practice. He was also
the owner of the place at Windsor
VT, on which a gang of men was con-
stantly employed.
On one occasion lady, hearing of
Mr.. Evarts' large income from his pro-
fession, exclaimed in the presence of
the attorneys wife: ''How rich they
must be!'' to which the latter replied
in quiet manner: "You forget, mad
am, that we own farm" 1t is also
related of the distinguished lawyer,
that, while entertaining number of
friends at his home one evening he
produced several bottles of champagne
and a quantity of milk. Turning to
his guests he said, withouta semblance
of humor: Gentlemen, here is some
milk from my farm, and here is some
wine. You can take your choice
they both cost the same"

BRINGING IN BILLS.
HOW New Measures Are introduced Into
the English Parliament.

the English Parliament.
Always at the beginning of parlia-
ment there are hundred members
who, having found as many subjects
calling for legislation, announce their
readiness to introduce bills. The time
honored process of bringing in bills is
thus described by the author of ga
Diary of the Salisbury Parliament"
The speaker, holding in his hand a
long list of notices given the day be-
fore, calls the names of the members
In succession. ''Mr. MurphyP' calls the
speaker. Mr.. Murphy raises his hat,
whereupon the speaker says: "The
question is that leave be given to
bring in bill to" and he reads de-
scription of the bill of which Mr.. Muir
ply has given notice.
''Who is prepared to bring in this
bill?" asks the speaker. Then Mr..
Murphy rises and reads out the names
of the members who indorse his bill,
and the speaker goes on to the next on
the list.
AS the speaker approaches the end of
the list members who are to bring in
bills struggle for places at the bar of
the house. The speaker calls on the
member whose name heads the list.
He makes his way through the throng
at the bar and advances toward the
clerks table, holding piece of folded
foolscap in his hand.
This is understood to be the bill he
is bringing in, but there is nothing
within but blank sheet, deliberately
Endorsed on the outside with the title.
The text of the measure will be de-
posted in the bill office at some future
convenient date.
The clerk, carefully concealing his
knowledge of the fiction, respectfully
takes change of ''the bill" recites its
title-which is the first reading" of
the bill-and then asks: Second read
