GOLDEN NUGGETS.

Julius Ropes, the Ishpeming assayer
and chemist. now located in the Rainy
lake country reports things very
quiet in the Seine river country.
About the only development work
being done is that on III. P. 81 by the
Gilman boys. He says there undoubt-
edly are fine gold properties up there,
but it will take capital to develop
them, and that monied men are not
going to buy ''unsight and unseen
and pay big money, as hoped by the
prospectors. And the apparent lack
of desire to bond properties also will
work detriment to the best interests
of the country. When the time
comes SO that prospectors viii be rea-
sonable in their demands, it is likely
that something may be done, but not
before.
A placer mining excitement has
broken out in the Big Manit0u
country. The finds of the placers was
made by Geo. Asplund, formerly of
this city, who is at present associated
with several of the Rainy lake bust
ness men in the Seine and Manitou
gold fields. The dirt and gravel, pan
in good shape on the surface. and it is
expected that richer results will be
obtained when bed rock is reached.
Mr.. Asplund and his associates have
acquired title to several hundred
acres for placers and left last week to
begin work OF opening the same. \
good stream of water crosses the
property that can be used for washing
the dirt in pan or rocker or it can be
fiumed.
We have been promised an early
report of the result of the work at
the placer mines discovered in the Big
Manitou country. If it turns out as
expected it will give an impetus to
the search for placer ground elsewhere
about the gold region and will do more
in way of rapid development of all our
mining interests than is possible To
any other interest. A placer ground
is poor mans paradise.
The Little American stamp mill
made a cleanup of s160 for one days
run a week ago Friday. Most of the
clean ups have been, short OF that
amount because of poor ore. 1t is
shame that so good property is not
developed as it should be by its owners.
as it is capable of being made one of
the finest mines in the country, with
very little expense. 1t has demon
strated its worth as a bullion pro-
ducer, even under the most trying and
adverse circumstances.
Itasca county will make an interest
ing exhibit of its resources at the
coming state fair. These having the
exhibit in charge have asked the
Rainy lake and Seine river people to
send specimens Of the quartz found in
that country.
The Gilman boys have discovered
and are in possession of the find on the
ManitOu, gold mine of immense
riches. They brought some of the
ore to Rainy Lake City and it will
probably yield $50 to the ton and is
free.milling.

The membrane lining the canal Of
the ear contains a great number of lit
tie glands which secrete a waxy sub
stance having an intensely bitter taste.
The purpose of this is to prevent the en-
trance of insects and to keep the ear
clean, as the layer of wax dries in
scales, which fall rapidly away, thus
removing with them any particle Of
dust or other foreign matter which may
have found entrance to the ear.

LITTLE ROCK DETRIMENTAL.
How to Secure Some Freights at
Memphis Puzzles the Little
Rock Trade.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, June 22.-At
a meeting of the Board Of Trade
Freight Commissioner j. A. Wood
son made report OF the effort in
stituted to relieve Little Rock from
determinations in favor Of Men,
phis and st. Louis in the matter OF
freight rates. He had delegated
Allen n. Johnson to call upon Traf-
fic Manager Parker, Of the Missouri
Pacific system, and lay before him
the claims for justice Of this city.
Mr.. Parker made suggestion to
the effect that a conference COM
mittee be appointed with represen-
tatives each from st. Louis, Men,
phis, Little Rock, New Orleans,
Pine Bluff and FIT. Smith. Col. Wood
son did not countenance the con-
ference's idea and said the only So
luton was to mark out a Little
Rock jobbing territory and then
secure differential rates. Upon the
differential basis, whenever st.
Louis or Memphis secured reduc-
ton Little Rock would fare like
wise. II the present difficulties are
merely patched up the benefit
would be but brief. Little Rock
must assert its claim as jobbing
center and get these differentials.
Col. Woodson's advice was that a
determined effort be made to carry
out his suggestion. He would not
advise fight until all other efforts
failed,

The Little Crisis Was There.

New YORK, June ga special
to the World from London says:
can amusing incident, related
by Mr.. Henry Labouchere, illus
trates the unlocked for character OF
the crisis in the British Parlia-
ment:
"Mr. Labouchere and Sir Will
liam Vernon Harcourt met on the
terrace of the House, and Sir Will
liam said jokingly to Mr.. Labou-
chere: 'How dull the day has been
without q crisis. How is it you
have not provided one"
"Mr. Labouchere was replying
that he did not know how to get
up crisis on the army estimates,
when the bell rang, announcing
that a division had been chal-
lenged. They went in to vote to-
gether, and that division has been
followed by the most serious crisis
that this government has yet had
to face. A defeat Of this nature
would have been easily surmounted
had not the affairs Of the govern-
ment got into such a bad way all
around of late. 1t certainly must
hasten, il 1t does not instantly pre-
cipitate, a general election"

Manchester Guardians Review.

MANCHESTER, June %. - The
Guardian, in its commercial ar
ticle, says:
"The tendency Of the market
during the week has been in favor
Of buyers, and some business has
been done at figures previously de-
clined. Producers are apparently
disheartened over the continued
weakness of cotton and the poor
character Of the demand for India
and elsewhere. The orders in many
departments are running out more
rapidly than they can be replaced.
A greater disposition is shown to
press sales, despite the poor mar
gin available. There was a squirt
for China last week. but it has, to
a great extent, subsidized. Yarns are
weaker, and the buyers are watch
ing the market closely before
opening"
