Gated near Red Rock, Montana, yester-
day let a contract to the Colorado Iron
Works for the erection of a mill, of
twenty stamps capacity, and in the
next sixty days the property promises
to be producing gold bullion. A con.
tract in which 100 feet of work was
done has just been completed; and an
other let in which an upraise will be
made to the surface, the purpose being

The first genuine excitement that
this section has experienced in many
years occurred Wednesday when it be.
came known that the owners of the
Black Jack mine had made rich dis.
coVery. For several hours all kinds of
rumors were rife and the whole country
actually went wild. People from all
over the valley made a grand stampede
for the diggings and in two hours after
the strike had been reported the hills in
the vicinity of the mine were alive with
people. Men tramped the hills all dav
long and by night the entire country
within several miles of the mine was
staked off in claims. The mine is be.
tween four and five miles from Preston
and is owned by Franklin and Rich
mond parties. The mine was first locat-
ed as a coal prospect and was Thought

of and on, as time would permit, for
several years, until shaft has been
sunk to the depth of several hundred
feet. Monday last one OF the owners

dump and he gathered,up small sack

A phenomenon which, from its re-
markable character, has attracted
much attention in Europe, recently &C.
CURED in the department of Gard,
France, where Mount Gouffre, mass
of rock $50 feet in height, suddenly
gave way at its base and began NOV
ing toward Carbon River, upon the
left bank of which it was situated.
The movement began on the 18th of
February, and on the 23d the advance
had destroyed the machinery in the
pits of the Grand 'Combe Colliery and
nearly mile of the Alais Railway, and
had DETECTED the course of Carbon 81
feet. Six hundred persons were oblig-
ed to leave their homes at Grande
'Combe, and water famine having
been created, it became necessary to
install "an engine up stream to pump
water from the river to supply the in
habitants of the mining center.
On the Goth the mountain came to a
Standstill, but it is believed by engi-
neers that this state of rest will be but
temporary, and that the rocky mass
will resume its motion, cross the Gar.

river. Should this occur, very import.

hcatlons will of course be- made in the
region and it will become necessary to
prepare new channels for the Carbon

is no question of the character Of this
discovery and we do not hesitate to pre-.
dict a great mining boom during, the
summer. We congratulate the discoY-
erers and sincerely hope their fortunes
are made. Yesterday it was rqmored
that $4,000 had been refused for half
interests and there is no occasion to
doubt the truth of th6rumor.
With half dozen paying mines in
operation, this section will be one of the
richest and most prosperous in Idaho
or Utah. We have waited a long time
for something to turn up and finally our
hopes have been realized. 1t is the jack
of trumps and no mistake.-Oneida

A GREAT GERMAN TELESCOPE.

The Berlin Industrial Exhibition
opens May l, 1896 and in connection
with it the Astronomical Observatory
of Grunewald will be transferred Il
Treptop near Berlin. One OF the fea
lures of the exhibition will be photo
graphs of old instruments, models Of
telescopes, reproductions of astronomi
cal drawings and kindred subjects. AS
the largest refractor hitherto erected in
Germany has only been one of l8 inches
aperture. it is gratifying to note that
one is now being constructed having
an aperture of 28 inches. ,
The mounting is so arranged as to re-
ceive two objeCtives, of which one is
designed for direct visual, the other for
spsctroscopic ard Photographic obser-
vations. For this reasons the latter
will be a double objective of short focal
length, 20 to % feet, and large aperture,
4S15 inches, which for the present will
be exhibited in an unfinished condition,
as the means for the purchase and pol
ishing of the enormous lenses, which
have been very successfully cast by DR..
SchOtt, can only be raised during the
exhibition. The rough disks of glass
for the lenses of the telescope have been
furnished by DR.. Sehott and Genossen
of jena, while the polishing has been
executed by Messrs. c. A. SteinheiI of
Munich. The mounting of the instru-
ment was intrurted to the Berlin Mas
chinenbau Anstalt G. Hoppe, "who was
assisted" by the firm of G. Meissner,
Berlin, in the execution of the minute
mechanical portions. The other OBJ.
iective, on the contrary, is completed,
and has an aperture of 271S inches and
focal length of 6S feet.
Instead of the usual dome, the teles-
cope is provided with cylindrical pro.
teCtiVe envelope, which together with
the tube is mounted on a rigid box.
which can be rotated round the declin.
alton axis. The polar axis is placed in
the interior of the pier; attached there.
to, and therefore revolving round it, is
Kind OF bell, which incloses the OBJ.
servers seat; the above mentioned box
revolVes with the bell round the polar
axis. The observer sits in the prolong-
alton of the polar axis, in such man
ner that his head Is in the turning point
OF the whole telescope, so that he can
easily follow its movements by slightly
turning his head. The counterpoises
for the tube extend at either end of the
box; besides which there is attached
second bell, which serves to relieve the
polar axis, and for this purpose runs on
two antifriction rollers fixed to the pier.

"Are the owners of the mines free
silver men ?" asked.
NO, and there is something funny
about that. Capt. De Lamar, who
owns the De Lamar silver mines in
Montana and Utah, lives in New York
and he is sound money man. He
knows free coinage is an impossibllity.
Haggin & TreVis, who own the Ana
cOnda mines in Butte, are for sound
money, too"
On the cars today a sheep man, who
felt grieved that the free coinage sena-
tors had slaughtered the sheep men on
the silver altar in Washington, was ar
guing with miner, After using him
all up and the passengers began to
laugh at his flimsy silver argument, the
miner retired to the smoker. After a
while the miner took out a silver dollQF
and examined it carefully. Then he
read the inscription, UNITED States"
on one side, and the "In God we trust"
on the other. Then an idea struck
him, and he remarked:
"Well, boys, I've lived here in Boise
City good many years. I've dug out
a good many silver dollars, and have
seen good many strange, things, but
never thought Id live long enough
holding up the dollarl to see God and
the United States on opposite Sides"
