Elephant Nurses.

The women of Siam intrust their
children to the care of elephant nurses,
and it is said the trust is never be-
trayed. The elephant, not being sus-
ceptible to the charms of the saunter-
ing policeman nor the social claims of
his friends and relations, is consequent
" able to devote its entire attention to
its charge. The babies play about the
huge feet of the elephants, who are
very careful never TO hurt the little

up in its trunk and swings it up out of
harms way upon its own back.

BIG MINING DEAL.
Expected to Take Out Over Two Mill
lions Annually.

An English deal for the acquisition of
a group of mines in Mariposa county is
near contamination, says the San Fran
cisco Chronicle. Thev consist of about
60 claims and four old and developed
mines, some formerly Of great richness,
located near the town of Hornitos
They were purchased about a month
ago, principally from Moses L. Rogers,
by S. Weber Parker of New York, who
formed California corporation known
as the Hornitos Gold Mining company.
Its capital stock was placed at 81, $780,
Co., San Franciscans were placed in
the directory. Charles Sonntag was
made vice president and general man
ager and w. H. Chapman was ap-
pointed attorney for the company, but
Parker remains the principal owner,
though now he is about to transfer the
control to an English syndicate, other,
it is said, than the famous Exploration
company of London. whose negotia-
lions for the MariDosa grant property
have been made public.
The chief developed mines in the
Hornitos group are the Washington,
Which was worked as early as 1862, and
in which a 1,500-foot shaft was sunk
the Quartz Mountain, on which are 10
stamps; the Jenny Lind, No. 5 and No.
9. on which $4,000 has been expended
at one t,Ine or another, and on which
there is a 30-stamD mill
The expectation is to begin deep de-
velopment work in the spring by the
aid of electricit=y brought from the
MERGED river. a distance of or 10
miles. There are hosting works, con-
centrators, mills, houses and live stock
on the property. Most of the claims
have only been Drospected The plan
is to expend 100000 in development
work and to employ from 500 to 1000
men. If the golden authorizations are
realized they will take out from $1,000
600 to S2,500,000 annually from the bow
els. of the Mariposa hills.
Between $1,000,000 and s1,sOO.0O is
being spent in the development of 10
Amador county mines, the latest re-
ports from which show excellent re-
suits from some thus far, and bright
promise in the future of others.

THE CAMP OF MARYsvALE.
Eminent Expert and GeOIogist Pre-
diets a Second Cripple Creek.

diets Second Cripple Creek.
A gentleman of this city who has es-
tablished for himself an enviable repu-
tation as a mining engineer and geolo-
giSt, says the Inter-M Mountain Mining
Review, has Just returned from a trip
into the mining district around Marys-
vale where he made an exhaustive ex-
animation of the mines of the region
as far as they are developed. His pro-
feSSion has taught him better than to
become enthused over a glittering
showing of mineral, but he states it
as his opinion that the region will
make a stir in the mining world on
account of it's rich gold values and its
extensive mineraliZed area His con-
clusicns, moreover. were not based on
prospective development, but on that
which has already been performed. He
says there are dumps at the mouths of
prospect holes from which gold can
be -panned at the rate of 80 cents and
up to the pan, and that, too, without
crushing the quartz, and that this can
be done in many cases.
The isolated position that Marysvale
has occupied up until the present year
has retarded the development of the
country, but now that the Rio Grande
Western has constructed it's lines to
within seven miles of Marysvale sta
ton, capital has a better opportunity
TO investigate the mineral deposits, and
the result is that promising prospects
are being gobbled up. Nor is this all
The Review informant states that with
the coming of spring there will be a
rush to these new diggings that will
exceed anything of the kind ever seen
in Utah, and that even now the own
ers of prospects are putting a price on
their claims that would have bought
nearly the whole country a year ago.
One Salt Lake capitalist who invested
$1,000 in a claim four months ago, re-
fused absolutely to consider an offer of
$4,000 the development work he had
prosecuted in the interim having proved
UP rich gold mine. The same author
ity asserts that there is a Cripple Creek
at Marysvale, and that within a year
the assertion viii he verified

plain that the men had forgotten to
turn off the supply.
Now note the result. In Petersburg,
as l said, the price of natural gas has
risen so high that manufactured gas
successfully completes with it. All over
the whole area where gas is found,
there is the same story of failing fields
Very often factories that were built
up over a gas we'll have been compelled
to move elsewhere in order to get
cheaper fuel and power. Plants that
were worth millions of dollars have had
to add coal bunkerS, now that the gas
has given out. In many places, too,
towns and cities went to large expense
to build extensive piping systems and
very often elaborate plants to make the
natural gas suitable for lighting Pur-
poses. In many places where this was
done the supply has given out, and
these plants made worthless unless
other plants for the regular manufac-
ture of gas have been added.
1t is impossible to compute the eX-
tent of tho failure of the gas fields or
to put the wasting into dollars. An at
tempt 70 do so would be nothing more
than the widest guess. But it is pos
sible to get some idea. of the reduced
flow from the fact that, according to
the figures of government experts, the
amount of coal displaced by natural
y
or six years ago. Add to this fact
that the gas is now being used at a
few ounces pressure, where before it
was used at six or eight pounds and
you get some notion of the difference.
Then as to the waste. If 500. 600 900 900
feet were actually consumed in 1885,
as the census experts estimated, it is
safe to say that in the ten years the
total production, counting all that was
consumed and all that was never used
at all. must have been about 5000, 000,-
000, 100000 feet. l believe the latter
figure would actually be far under the
mark. AT an average of D cents per
1000 feet, which is far under the aver
age value of the gas at the present
time, the total value of the gas pro-
duced in these ten years would $3.50 000.-
GOO. What proportion of this was ac-
tually wasted, no man of course could
say. My own view, as I have already
stated, is that fully nineteen tWentiethS
was absolutely thrown away.
The finale of the story is this: If
anything like an approach to ordinary
economical use had been made there
would still be gas enough to last for
generations. From not spending a few
dollars to put d cap over the unused
wells many city throughout the gas
regions now languishes and many a
man, who let his gas go to waste, or
if he did not use the gas, would have a
heritage for his children if he had
merely taken the Drecaution to spend
a few dollars for one of these same
caps.

1t is evident that in time it VIII be
demonstrated that the ores of certain
portions of Camp Floyd district are
different in character than they were
at first supposed to be, and instead of
being a purely oXidized mineral it will
be found that fair percentage of the
values will be in the form of free gold.
AS stated in these columns yesterday,
free gold has been found in the ores of
the Omaha mine, and The Herald was
informed yesterday by John Treweek.
former superintendent of the Mercur
mine that in doing the assessment
work on the Colonial group of claims
located lust west of the Sacramento
mine, the miners had taken out chunks
of ore in which sDecks of free gold
could easily be seen with the naked
eye, and Mr. Treweek is of the opinion
that as development progresses large
bodies of ore of this character will be
uncovered.
The Cottontail group of six claims
is owned by Mr.. Treweek, and he states
that in the spring he viii sink a verti-
cal shaft on the property and it is his
intention TO develop the ground in a
most thorough manner
On this group there are two distinct
veins, one of which dips into the hill
to the west, while on the divide the
ledge is nearly perpendicular. He will
sink a shaft on the upper vein, and he
is of the opinion that where the two
veins come together an immense body
of high grade ore will be found.
The presence of gold in a free state
will necessitate the Introduction of a
combination process for its reduction
and whether or not this will prove to
be of ADVANTAGE to the mine owner re-
mains to be seen.
There is no doubt, however, but that
in a free state the ore will carry
greater values

Il have eaten a great many fine
Thanksgiving dinners in my time" was
a remark that Captain Timothy Egan
made to a Herald representative yes
terday, but do not remember of one
that seemed to hit the right spot so
we'll as the dinner that l partook of at
the old Stewart boarding house at
Bingham several years ago.
Jack McNally was then running the
house. and Jack is one of the best
cooks that ever roasted a turkey, fried
oysters or made SOUP, and the dinner
that we had that day was something
to talk about for years. There were
80 or 20 men at the table, which was
spread with everything that was good
to eat. and the boys all had a right
royal time. It will be many a long
day, [ fancy. before 1 enjoy another
Thanksgiving dinner like l did that
ONE
The captain went on to tell of the
days during the war when he was on
picket duty in Virginia; but, coming
back TO Jack McNally's fame as
cook. and how proud Jack was of his
accomplishments in the culinary art,
he resurrected the following remini-
out in Nevada:
One day." said the captain, "a slick
haired dude came along and stopped at
Jacks for his dinner. The first course
was SouD and extra fine soup it was,
too. Jack asked the dude if he would
have SOUP. No. said the disciple of
Oscar Wilde. 7 do not care for soup.
Then, turning to the man who sat next
to him at the table, the dude said:
Soup amt fit to eat, anyhow
Jack overheard the remark and was
angry in minute, and Selling his big
butcher knife he was by the side of the
dude in a second, and grabbing him
by the hair of the head with his left
hand and brandiShing his knife in a
threatening manner with the other, he
said: The SOuD is not fit to eat? you
- - -; but YOU have got to eat
some of it all the samer' and calling
TO the Chinaman waiter he told him to
bring a bowl of soup, and when the
celestial brought it he
made the dude eat it, and the young
man was mighty glad to do so.
"Oh, Jack is q little rough some
times, continued the CAPTAIN, but
there is not a bigger hearted man in
the country, and there is nothing that
he would not do for a friend, and there
is not man in this country but that
knows it. too. 1t is safe to say that
the dude learned better manners under |
Jacks tutelage than he did at home
and that afterwards he took SOUP or |

marks about it,

ANOTHER NOVEL BET.
The Loser Had to Roll Peanut Sew
erai Squares.

Several. days ago. says the Buffalo
Times, Frank Collins and Thomas
Teiner, two well-knOwn young men
about East Buffalo, made an election
bet on McKinley's and Bryan's election.
and the one favOring the defeated can
didate was to roll a peanut along the
street from the Wagner works to
Bailey avenue and return. Collins IA
vored Bryan's election, and, of course,
got the unfortunate end.
At 7:15 last night Collins started
from No. 1913 Broadway with a large
party of friends to bravely fulfill his
part of the bet. He was escorted by
several of the Broadway hotel star
bCarders and a brass band with Tom
Teiner, who was to act as referee.
One of the provisions Of the bet was
that if the peanut stopped rolling at
any time Collins was to buy the drinks
for the party each and every time. His
feat was quite remarkable, not having
allowed the peanut to stop rolling but
once, which was at the turning point
at Bailey avenue, where he gladly
bought the drinks for the party of
friends and acquaintance, which had
by this time. swelled to about 40.
The procession was soon after start
ed on the homeward journey with the
peanut in the lead. The strain was
beginning to tell on Collins, and he
still had nearly half a mile to go, but
he pluckily stuck TO his undertaking
and reached the Broadway hotel about
9 o'clock in a nearly exhausted con-
ditiOn
Collins declares that he will never
make another election bet of a like
character again, and that he would
not undertake to roll a peanut that
distance again for $50. as he thinks it
will cost him that amount before he
gets rid of the strains, backache and
bruised fingers.
