three years, but now Mr. Graves has
encountered high grade, coarse gold,
aud is jubilant over the prospect.
He has taken up reservoir rights and
will build dams in the spring The

$1,000 from 30 tons Of ore, and bis
mine shows Il strong ledge OF The

investigation. An employee of the
factory was arrested. He made
confession, in which he stated that
Goedeke had employed him to set fire
to the factory Goedelle and his wife
were also arrested, the authorities be-
lieving that she knew of the incendi-
airy plot With her husband and her
2-year old babe she has been in prison
for more than month. The case is
on the calendar to be tried soon. If
convicted the accused will probably be
deported to New Caledonia. The news
of the arrest of Mrs. Goedke and her
husband reached Pittsburg some time
ago, but has been carefully guarded
by the lady's family. Prominent peo-
Pile there are using every effort to ac-
complish the acquittal and release of
the unfortunate woman. The French
government has been appealed to and
the influence of prominent pastors has
been brought to bear in her favor in
diplomatic circles.

Several weeks ago a noble bald eagle
swooped down upon Mr.. Walker and
submitted to captivity. The bird
philosophically consented to be petted

Mr.. Walker released the bird, but it
won't fly away, and his meat bills are
still running up enormously.

Men and Women In New York.

The census reveals some curious
facts about the distribution of New
Yorls's excess of women New York
city has 10000 of them; Brooklyn, IT,
900; Albany, $500; Troy, 5000; Utica,
3. 1000; Rochester, 1000; Syracuse, l, 100
They are all, practically, in the larger
cities of the state, the one exception
being Buffalo, which has 1000 more
men than women. 1t would be inter-
esting to know more about these 1000
superfuous Buffalo men, whether they
are Polacks, Italians, lake sailors, ca
nal boatmen, or merely lively young
bachelors from the country in the
western part of the state who have
gone to Buffalo to seek their fortunes
New York citys business opportuni-
ties, which attract crowds of men,
seem to attract quite as many women.
Yet the excess of women in New York
is comparatively small The city has
forty-five women to every forty-four
men, while Brooklyn has twenty-six
women to every twenty-five men, and
Troy eleven women to every ten men.
Why should it happen that in the SUI
burban counties nearest New York
there should be more men than women?
IL would seem that of the population
drawn by the metropolis to this end of
the state the unmarried men would
nearly all live in the cities, and the
jewellers in the suburbs would for the
most part be people with families Yet
the suburban counties all show an ex-
cess of men--1. 300 in Westchester,
J .7oO in Richmond, and 2, 800 in Queens

men were prominent in undertakings
of a similar nature, there is, after all
little to furnish a comparison. MI.
Nast's service was important. He rep
resented in the concrete, and by the
weapon of satire, the public opinion
which was then making against Tweed
and the vulgar thieves by whom he
was surrounded. He was able to catch
the spirit of the public opposition, and
SO suggest it by his pencil as to show
the public by cartoon what it was
thinking about. His most famous car
toon represented Tweed as money
bag. With skill which has never
been equaled in this country, Mast
converted, by few strokes of his PEN
ell, the representation of bag of gold
into caricature of Tweed's face, and

Queer Charitable Offerings.

A benevolent woman is gathering

for box to send to Nebraska. Many
very useful garments, comfortables,
ETC., have been contributed But
among the articles sent in there are
some that make one wonder what are
the giver's notions concerning needs
and supplies for needs. For instance,
in one package were two tides for
chair backs and small roll of pink
satin, with several tiny scraps OF fancy
braid What use these would be put
to for starving and freezing folk it is

THOMAS MAST TODAY.

this expressed week after week what
everybody had in his mind, that Tweed
had, by his political power and control
of the city of New York, been able to
make great fortune for himself
The cartoons were of immense i'm
portance in thus formulating or crys-
talizing public opinion. 1t has been
said that Tweed himself looked upon
them as one of the most important in
fluences in causing his downfall.
Mr.. Mast is of European birth, hav-
ing been born in Bavaria fifty-four
years ago: but he came early to this
country, and is one of the most en-
thusiastic and loyal of Americans. His
first work as cartoonist or sketch
maker for the illustrated weelilies was
done before the civil war. He went to
England and sl1etched the famous
prize fight between Heenan and Say
ers, and he also followed Garibaldi
during the most important of his en-
gagements. 1t was by means of his
pencil that America became familiar
with these important events Coming
back to the United States, he became
associated with the Harpers, and
sprang into general fame when he be-
gan to tell in satire the story of
Tweed's corruption. He became still
further known by his illustrated lect-
ures, delivered all over the country.
Lately Mr.. Mast has made one or two
ventures of his own in illustrated
lie a hn H,.ct Of hn
great American cartoonists, and
pointed the way for Keppler and
Gillian.
