A Big Gold Find.

Tire gold bearing veins about Will
low Creek thus far discovered are Of
low grade, but often of immense size.
Some are like quarries, and the ore at
the very surface yields at the rate Of
S5. ton. In the district are small
veins and strcaks of quartz that are
much richer. Little attention has
been given any Of these. All pros
pectors go after the biggest veins in
sight, and then they have something
that they are unable to handle.
Recently rich gold discovery has
been made to the northward OF the old
town of Star City, at one time the big
camp of the Humboldt country. The
new find shows quartz 80 rich in gold
that it can hardly be broken apart.
The men who made this big find pack
their ore down out of the mountains
on the backs OF mules, when it is
loaded upon wagons and taken to the
railroad.
The Star City people cared for no
mines except such as carried silver;
they did not bother with gold. The
place is now utterly deserted. Only
the ruins of some of the larger build
ings and those of few stone cabins
remain to show where the town stood.
At several points about the old town,
and up and down Star canyon, are to
be seen apple trees that are over thirty
years old. This season all these trees
are loaded with fruit. Old Star peak
10000 feet high, looks down upon the
camp as i'll the old days, but OF all
those who once thronged the town
not a man remains to look up mt the
peak.
The geology of that section, and of
the whole Star range shows that it is
better for gold than for silver. Now
that attention has been attracted to
the region by big gold find, the old
town may be peopled anew and new
buildings may be erected among the
ancient apple trees. Some are of the
opinion that this Humboldt gold belt
extends northward into Idaho. Par
ties from Idaho, scouting down into
northern Nevada recently, report hav-
ing found rich veins of gold bearing
quartz, and also some fine veins of
copper. The copper veins also assay
we'll in gold. Silver State.

with sand and water. The Broadway
hotel is wrecked. In every part of

NEW YoRK, Feb. 8.-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say: Extremely low temper ature, snow and high winds have visited the greater portion of the country this week and exercised mark of indifference by restricting orders received by jobbers in all staple lines. But they have tended to stimulate purchases of seasouable goods.
 General trade at larger eastern centers remains unchanged. Philadelphia reports continued free sales of dry goods. At Bal timore bills sent south and southwest have been paid more promptly than expected.
 Among southern cities Chattanooga re- ports that the volume of trade there for January, in spite of the range of prices, is equal to that of 1894. In contrast Is a de- crease in all lines at Augusta, with commercial collections unsatisfactory. Business has fallen off at At lanta, but at Savannah the sit. uation is unchanged, with jobbers cautious as to opening accounts. fair volume of business is doing at New Orleans, but collections are poor because of non-payment of sugar bounties. No important changes are reported from Mem- phis, Richmond, Charleston or Galveston.
 The damage by the Florida freeze was ex- crop had already been marketed. Late crops and those held for higher prices were caught and destroyed. Some young trees were hurt, but old groves were principally uninjured. Heavy losses fell on large growers. A good but small crop is ex- pected this year. Results of Florida naval stores and phosphate In dustries, truck and berry farming are snid to have been fairly satisfactory.

Suggestions Which will Make Her Less of
 Public Nuisance.
 An English woman has been devoting some time to tho study of unrequited af- fection and it's effect upon it's victim and her friends. In these days, when idiotic damsels are committing suicide and writ ing pesSiIniStio books because the objects of their devotion do not care for them, the doctrine that ''eternal love'' is temporary and that unchanging pain may be cured in few months is a healthy one. This is what the sensible English woman says about the cure:
 ''The great thing to start with is de- sire for cure, and this is most rare and difficult to obtain, for these sorrowcrs love their sorrow. They would think 1t wrong and lacking all fitness to be without it. It is right to suffer, they consider, so they do it. Believe mo, tho pain of unhappy love is of the nature of nervous head ache-by imagination it may be realized. The next remedy is absence. Many, many words have been written for and against absence, but il my opinion it is the deadliest of all enemies to love.
 Then come time and work, about which, fear, most persons are tired of hearing AS regards time, often think of Miss Austens s flow half ironical words at the end of Mansfield Park: I purpose ly abstain from dates on this occasion that every ono may bo at liberty to fix his own, aware that tho euro Of unconquerabie pas sions and the transfer of unchanging at- tachments must vary much as to time in different people. I only entreat everybody to believe that exactly at the time when it was quito natural that it should be so and not week earlier Edmund did cease to care about Miss Crawford and became as anxious to marry Fanny as Fanny herself could desire Timo is indeed great pow CT, and work is magical.
 ''Assuredly the work which brings tho quickest cure is that which is absolutely necessary to ward off debt and starvation. In such a case girl needs to plan and think, perhaps to walk and talk-at any rate, to work at her trade or profession with such ceasolcss energy, such entire interest, that there is but little time for the nightly wesp. Sho is so tired when bedtime comes that the little weep is post poned until tomorrow, then until toinor- TOW week, then-well, then it seems so silly thing to do. Every unhappy lover, without exception, should work. If work is not necessity, still say do it. "- New York World

The Threatened Split in the Demo-
 cratic Party at Selma, Ala, As Happily Averted.

T SELMA, Feb. 8.-[Special. 1.-The politi- I sal skies are again clear. Another mass 5meeting was held last night. Up to the time of meeting it looked like the result would inevitably be split In the party, but by cool, deliberate action on the part 'ofa few men this was averted, much to the joy of all except a few of the chronically idisgruntled.s ~
 1i Immediately after the meeting was called to order Mir. 8. D. Mallory was recognized by the chair, and in cool and dispassion- ste manner he recited the events which led up to the strained relations and presented set of resolutions which he said If adopted by the meeting he was authorized to state that the primary election set for today, which was the direct cause of the action of the citizens, would be declared off and that the primary would not be called for at least thirty days. Strong conciliatory speeches were also made by Messrs. c. w. Hooper, Ernest Lamar aud P. H. Pitts.
 The resolutions after considerable dis cussion were finally passed.
 The meeting was then turned into per- manent organization, with MT. s. D. Holt president, E. l.. Starr vice. president and Minihorn Woolsey secretary. The meet- ing then adjourned.
