NOTHING TO DIG BUT GOLD.
Wonderful Discoveries Of the Yellow Ore
Near Salt Lake City.

Wonderful Discoveries of the Yellow Ore
Near Salt Lake City.
Recent discoveries of vast goldflelds
at Mercur, about Go miles south of Salt
Lake City. which give every indication
Of making that place one Of the largest
and richest gold mining camps in the
world, have created intense,excitement
For about two years only one property
has been operated. and that by the Mer-
cur Gold Mining and Milling company.
and in that period 1t has paid dividends
Of over 5000, 900, 1t now appears that
the valley for many miles in every di-
rection contains ore equally AZ rich or
richer than the Mercur oompany's prop
erty.
Within short period a district Of
seven miles by three miles has been al
most entirely taken up, and fully 1000
miners and prospectors are at work.
Three new mills have been started up
and are now operating even more profit
ably than the original one. New discov-
cries are being made daily, and there Is
great excitement The extent of the sur
face in which the ore is found appears
to be practically unlimited, and the
stock Of numerous companies which
have recently incorporated is eagerly
sought for at from 80 cents to 50 share,
Captain Delamar, the multimillionaire,
recently obtained an option to purchase
the properties of the Mercur company
for 81 500, 900. The option runs until
jan 8, and there is scarcely doubt he
will take it up.-New York Tribune.

A BABY / KNOW.

Gods angel was hidden to make her fair,
So he wove the sunshine into her hair.
He took Of the midnoon's cloudless skies
And fashion'd therefrom her two blue eyes.
He washed her white with the sinless SHOWS
And painted her cheeks with the dawn's faint
rose
He dimpled her tiny hands and feet,
He made her sunny and soft and sweet.
He nodded her round white limbs with art,
He got her from heaven pure child heart.
Then he kiss'd her lips and her brow and eyes
And brought her, sleeping, from paradise.
Such virtue lies in those kisses three
That how SO weary at heart are we,
The look and the smile ON our baby's face
Bring rest and comfort and endless grace.

Effect of Sunday Closing.

Mayor Strong of New York calls at
tention to the fact that 5000 saloons
are carried on in that city, or nearly
three times as many proportionately as
are found in Philadelphia, where high
license produces large revenue. An
other item mentioned is that since the
Sunday closing law has been enforced
deposits in the New York savings banks
have increased $15, 900. Louis

Nine. Mara, the noted songstress, had
dark, irregular features, but with such
a play of expression when she sang that
they seemed to glow. She did not at
first appearance On the stage favorably
impress an audience, ON account of her
lameness, but when she began to sing
everything else was forgotten.

Skowhegan Grange Meeting.

Owing to the unfavorable travelling
the regular meeting Wednesday, was not
up to the average in attendance. The
amount of business however did not
show any falling away from previous
meetings. An invitation WAS extended
to the Maine Dairy Association to hold
the next annual meeting in SkoWhrgan.
The call for Skowhegan Grange to take
part in the exhibit and parade at the
New England and Maine State Fairs,
was considered but no definite action
taken. Two candidates were voted in
and degree work conferred upon others
The topic for discussion, "What methods
shall be adopted to procure better
roads," Lewis Beal believes that we are
far behind the old countries in the
matter of roads. We are better off under
the old District system of working out
our tax instead of having it assessed in
money. A. f. Jewett-The best way is
an expensive way. The time will come
when we shall have to take that eX-
peusiye way and begin in digging out in
the worse places and filling in with
stone then covering with good gravel.
Horace Eaton-About worn out in work
ing ON the roads. Favors putting our
prisoners on the roads and making them
work. Keep the roads Well drained and
in soft and muck places put in stone and
cover with dirt or gravel. Don't narrow
up the roads too much, it gives the
frost too much of chance. +. Q.
Harrs-Our system is wrong as now
practiced. When we need good roads is
now, in April, and we need to raise
money enough to make IA good piece of
road as far as we 90 and not try to get
over too much at one time.
A. 5. Hoxe--We must keep the water
off the roadway. Concentrate on the
worst places and do it WE'LL fayors

Oral discussion of Cuban affairs be

like peace for that distracted country.
