A GROWING MINING CAMP.
The Humbug District Becoming
 Pivotal Point.

The Humbug District Becoming a
 Pivotal Point.
 Chas. Thompson, one of the oldest miners in the territory, and one of the principal stockholders in the Colum bia Mining company in the Humbug dis trict, is in the city with several other mining men from the same district. MT. Thompson has lived in that vicinity eighteen years and believes it is de- stined to become pivotal point. It is situated thirty-two miles from the rail- roak, but will be brought within eight miles on the completion of the road to Castle Greek hot springs. Colum bia, the new Dostotice, has been established aDout two months. The name was suggested by Mir. Thompson, the owner of the town site and the building in which the postoffice is located. The town is already absor ping the popula- tion of the scattered mining camps in the district, and is the principal place of business of the recently organized Columbia Mining company. Two of the principal stockholders are Messrs. spraker and Jones, Kansas City capi- talists, who left for the east last night.
 There are now, MT. Thompson says, about 200 men at work in the district.

When 1t Rained Hardest and Thundered Loudest Monday.

When 1t Rained Hardest and Thundered Loudest Monday.
 If any body has any doubt about the rain and thunder storm which came up suddenly Monday night, let him ask Messrs. R. c. Lowell, Harry Low ell and 8 gentleman named Hawley. They know more about it than any body else in town. These gentlemen lodge in the Mccarthy building on Wall street. The early evening was sultry and by means of ladder they ascended to the roof to intercept any I possible passing breezes.
 Andrew Barry, who lodges on the op- posite side of the street, removed the ladder without the knowledge and con. sent of the gentle men indulging in the enjoyment ot the roof garden; then the storm came on and the absence of the ladder was discovered. It didn't rain harder and it didn't thunder louder on that roof than any where else, but the three gentlemen went before Justice Johnstone yesterday morning and swore it was the longest rain and the loudest thunder they had ever heard.

A Chance For All.

/, This is the opening Of the college
season. Thousands of our young
men and women are entering the ad
vanced institutions of learning, mos,
of which boast Of the largest freshman
class i'll their history.
| 1t is natural for those who, BY force
of necessity, are denied the privilege
of attending college, to look with not
a little envy on those whom they re-
gard as more fortunate and to feel that
they are losing something that will
greatly handicap them in their life
struggle. To these we have word to
say.
We firmly believe in Che survival of
the fittest. Natural ability is bound
to come to the front. No amount of
cultivation can make q thistle. a rose.
Whilel college training is, in many

the foundation given only by nature,
we do not consider it worth anything
like what it costs to Others. Hundreds
come forth from the back door of
some college but little better fitted for
lifes work than when they entered.
Money is practically thrown away in
trying to pound Latin and Greek,

far ahead of their equals who did not
enter, as might be supposed, after four
years spent there. While they have
been drilling away at studies, some of
which can never be of any benefit to
them, and perhaps wasting time in
dissipation or OVERRIDING athletics,
here has been an opportunity for the
