The Deepest Shaft in the World.

At the greatest depth ever attained by
miners in the history of the world, the
miners in the vertical Red Jacket shaft
of the Calumet & Hecla copper mine
have recently stopped sinking at depth
of 4, 600 feet, as this is the required depth
necessary for this company to reach the
limit OF its underground territory. Bor-
ed wells have been carried down to great
er depth, but the Red Jacket shaft is the
largest and best constructed mining
shaft in the world. Its inside dimen-
sions are I4x22H feet, divided into six
compartments and timbered throughout
with pine. The shaft was started III the
fall of 1880. The new shaft rock house,
which will be built of iron and will be
made freproof throughout, is the only
part of the work necessary to put this
deep shaft in commission, as the hosting
machinery, which consist of two pair Of
triple expansion engines of 5000 horse
power per pair, and will hoist load of
ten tons 90 feet per second, was planned
and put in place while the sinking of the
shaft was going on.

THE CITIZEN. .
The UnttuthfuIness of Morphlnomaniacs

The mental and moral destruction
which occurs in a victim to the norphia
habit is a fact which unfortunately has
been only too frequently demonstrated.
This point has lead to some discussion
respecting the expediency of rejecting
the testimony in a court of law of those
who are known to be addicted to the use
of morphia One authority has even
gone so far as to say, ''I would not be
lieve a man who is a victim OF the NOR
pfia habit on oath" No doubt the
moral obliquity as to truthfulness pres
ent in such person would be perfectly
uncomfortable, under any circumstances
and unrestrained, even although he had
sworn to tell the truth. But before com
ing to any definite decision upon the
question of receiving or rejec ting the
evidence of such a witness, it would first
OF all be only expedient to dete rmlnt
what constitutes person whose menta
and moral capacities have been tainted
by the use of morphia.

They are Of purely vegetable composition
