The Hon. j. W. Darlington, Of the

Judge Baker yesterday decided fol the defendants in the case of Thomas B. Wiswell vs. the Tabor Mining and Milling company. The action taken yesterday was the issuance of an order dissolving an order enjoining the sale of the Vulture mine under the terms of trust deed. The mine is heavily encountered and an effort is now being made to foreclose.
 Senator Tabor deeded the mine in 1893 to the Tabor Mining and Milling company The new owners assumed among other obligations the payment of notes owed by MT. Tabor to a Springfield, H., bank, to Madison bank and to Joseph B. Henley, of Den yer, the amount aggregating $23, ,O00. The company subsequently deeded the mine to Lester Mclean, of Denver. The deed was one of trust to sncure the amount owed on the notes. The terms of the deed were not complied with and the mine will be accordingly sold for the debt.

OF INTEREST TO MINERS

The knowledge of the effect upon gold of the presence of other minerals is one of the most important items to the miner and prospector, as it enables them ito determine with reasonable accuracy the condition of their product, and ito approximate the cost of treat ment after an assay has shown the com ponent parts of the ore. Antimony, arsenic, lead, sulphur, tellurium and zinc render the gold brittle and unfit for rolling, even when present in so small a quantity as one two-thousand- tht part. Zinc in large quantities is said to produce a very ductile alloy.
 The new shaft at Pearce, sunk about 800 feet from the Bonanza mine of the company, is now down 100 feet and is showing up equally we'll with the original shaft, thus showing that the entire length of the immense ledge of this property goes down and as depth is attained becomes richer, proving indeed that the property is a wonder and astonishing the mining world.

E~CCLESIASTIC ROME.
An AIways-Present Power that Gives thu
CITY Its ImDortancc.

An AIways-Present Power that Gives tho
City Its Importance.
"EcclesiaStic" Rome is the stronghold
of a most tremendous fact. from what
ever point of view Christianity may be
considered. If one could. in imagina-
ton, detach the head of the Catholic
church from the church, one would be
obliged to admit that no single living
nan possesses the ~far-reaching and
lasting power which in each succeeding
papal reign belongs to the pope. Be
hind the pope stands the fact which
confers, maintains and extends that
power from century to century-a
power which is one of the hugcst ele-
ments of the worlds moral activity,
both in its own direct action and in the
counteraction and antagonism which it
calls forth continually.
1t is the all-pcrvading presence OF
this greatest fact, literally, in Christen-
dom which has carried on ROme's i'm
pOrtance from the days Of the Caesars,
across the chasm ofthe dark ages, to the
days of the modern popes; and it is this
really enormous Importance which
throws forward INTO
relief the puerilites and inanities of
the daily outward world. 1t is the
consciousness Of that Importance which
makes old Roman society what it is,
with its virtues. its vices, its preiu-
diccs, and its strange, old-fashi0ned,
closc-fisted kindness; which makes
the contrast between the >aturnalia of
Shove Tuesday night and the cross
signed with ashes upon the forehead
on Ash Wednesday morning, between
the careless laughter of the Roman
beauty of Carnival, and the tragic
earnestnesS of the same lovely face
when the great lady kneeIs in Lent be-
fore the confessional to receive upon
her bent head the light touch of the
penitentiary's wand, taking her turn,
perhaps, with a score of women of the
people. 1t is the knowledge of an al
ways present power. active throughout
the whole world, which throws deep,
straight shadows, as it were, through
Roman character. just as in certain
ancient families there is a secret hat
makes grave the lives of those who
know it.-Marion Crawford, in Cen
