This is a peculiar world. One man is

with the hope of making her his wife,
while his neighbor Is spending what gold

New York has just had another trial Of
the voting machine and it is again pro-
nounced q success, says the Sacramento
Record Union. At one trial made some
two months ago it is charged that the
failure was due far more to the officers
Of the election than TO the machine. In
the test made at Mount Vernon recently
there was no difficulty whatever with
the machine. The New York press is
unanimous in saying that il worked to
the entire satisfaction of the officials and
the voters. There were six tickets in
field, and thirty.ive candidates on each
to be considered. Ten minutes after the
last vote was cast the result was known
in each voting precinct and not g single
mistake was made.

Here is the way the Cleveland t0hio)

"Iu respect to silver. John Sherman

laid down at Minneapolis in ls92-the

with the other great countries of the

before the delegates to the Republican
Convention, proved the consistency Of
his own public declarations and Of the

The San Francisco Call says; The
directors of the Con. Cal. x Virginia
mining company recently decided to
call a special meeting of the stock
holders to decide upon the advisable
ity Of uniting with other mines on the
Comstock to open up the Brunswick
lode. The other mines concerned are
the Chollar, Potosi, Hale & Norcross,
Savage, Gould & Curry and Best &
Belcher.
The proposition is for each mine to
buy as many feet on the Brunswick
lode as they have on the Comstock
lode. Then all will combine and bear
the expense OF running a tunnel, shar'
ing the profits OF the loss.

boring men is to buy q home. II is bet

Steam and bad men are likely to de-

corning the application Of steam to the

q wonder that the utilization Of so much
energy such as has been bottled up in

been thought of before. Under the new
defense scheme, steam pipes are run
along the locomotive, one On either side,
from the cab forward. The ends Of the
pipes are provided with small n~ozzles,
and the steam will put a man in q pers.
p~iration at q distance Of 100 feet or
more, and knock him over at sixty feet.
Similar pipes run down each side OF the
train, and at intervals MOBILES are placed

whole train could be enveloped In a mass
OF kissing yspor. This scheme will
probably be extended to the protection
OF bank vaults against thieves.

A Boise City, Idaho. dispatch Of June
s reports some unusually important de-
veIopments having been made recently
at Atlanta, in Elmore county. A COM
q o Of Boise men have been opening up
an extension Of the Atlanta vein. This
company, says the dispatch. has opened
up a vein Of gold ore City feet thick.
There are streaks from three to twelve
feet thick that run from $50 to $500 per

to SIS. While aware Of the fact
that this latest reported big find
is situated in the center OF . rich gold
district, having resided there about thirty
years sgo, We give very little credence
to that part Of the story relating to the
thickness Of the vein. Idaho is a great
country, agricultural as well as mineral,
and will in a few years, when proper
railroad facilities are afforded it for a
general opening and development OF tho
State, be one of the grandest in the gal
