 What q joke 1t would be on the in- vestors who have put money into holes in Montana, Colorado and other far western places in search of the precious metals and left it there, if it should turn out that gold and silver were to be found in paying quantity no farther away than Chesterfield;
 No long distances to travel to look after ones investment, no tenderfoot experiences, no running up against strange laws, no nothing but to rake in the dividends Whoopee will be the word if the assayer knows his business as he ought to know it. Ben Fox has land close by the Tinker property and he is one of the prospective million aires.-NeW London Day.

GOLD AMONG THE ROCKS.
Discoveries in Chesterfield Revives the
 Gold Fever.

Discoveries in Chesterfield Revives the
 Gold Fever.
 The gold fever in Chesterfield has re- vived after long period of forgetful- ness. The revival of the hopes of land owners in that region that there is a paying vein of gold running through their property, is due to the effects of blast made by Matthew Tinker a few days ago while excavating for a we'll.
 He put in his blast and set her off, and when the report had died away in the distance and the smoke had Van- ished into thin air, MT. Tinker found a heay of stone and sand, and lying in the heap were some mineral specimens that would make Wm Jennings Bryan froth at the mouth. They had unmis- takable traces of pure gold and some silver, two metals that associate upon perfectly friendly terms if they are let alone. Some specimens are even now on the way to an assayer's for analy- sis and upon the report received from the assayer depends the future of Ches- terfield.
 Several years ago the late John Bish- op of this city, being aware of the pos sible rich deposits lying under the Chesterfield farms, secured a lease for one hundred years with a view to reg ular built mining for gold and silver. The lease was recorded in the town of East Lyme and also in the town of Montville, the land being partly in one town and partly in the other. These recorded leases are said to be defective l inasmuch as they differ. However that may be, there is high hope that yellow gold lies hidden away in the l Chesterfield land Waiting the pick of

 For the next Paris exposition 1t Is proposed to construct gigantic re- volving tower 400 feet high, in which spectators may sit and see al! over the gay French capital as the house imper- ceptibly turns around. The French had the celebrated Eiffel tower for their last exposition. The Americans had the great Ferris wheel at the Co., lumbian Worlds Fair at Chicago. Now it Is proposed to adapt the idea of mo- tion to the structural design of tower, and thus cap the climax of national toy construction The inventor Of the revolving tower is M. Devic. and he calls it "The Palace of Progress" It is calculated that the outer wall of the tower will move at the rate of 3 feet 8 inches a second, or at about the rate of 21a miles an hour Two minutes will complete one revolution, and the bear ingS are said by mechanical engineers to be so designed as to take away all sense of motion from those who are inside while it is going around. The motive power will be hydraulic. The site will be the summit of Montmartre, the highest point within the fortiflca- tions of Paris.

That is a wise suggestion that Mir B. l.. Godkin makes in an article on "The expenditures of rich men, in the October scribner's. In building great private residences for the display of their wealth, Americans, he says, ex- cite class envy and hatred, which might be avoided, if instead they would erect great public monuments, such as museums, arches, pictures galleries and the like. They would thus rid them selves completely of any imputation of selfishness, at the same time perpetu- ating their names

James 3. Colgate, of New York. per- haps the largest dealer in silver bullion in America, who was supposed to have leanings toward silver, now says: The free coinage of silver at ratio of 16 to 1 by the United States alone would require an advance in the price of the worlds supply. Such an advance would not only cause an increased produc- tion, but would invite all the spare sil- yer of the world to us. This, in my opinion, is too vast a contract for us to undertake, and would in the end, re- suit disastrously.

FASHION NOTES.
rbe Pitch of yyinter Hats.

There is talk of wide hats set off the forehead for winter wear, but this is just to meet the taste of those who would not adapt themselves to the wn-pitched brim The pompadour,
 especially with a little fringe below, calls for the hat off the face, but many are keeping to the central parting, and the "botticelli'' finish to the part is be- of beauty will stand it. Such arrange ments of the hair call for a hat we'll down on the forehead, and so it is safe to say that both styles will have ad- herents. To-day's pictured hat had the downward pitch, and was profusely trimmed with green and white tulle.

Although members of colored Ma sonic bodies are received in full fellow ship by white Masons in England, in this country, as is well known, there has been a marked line between the races, and white Masons not recogniz- ing the so-called Masonic lodges of the eolored people. What is said to be the first break in this attitude of the white Masons is the reported action of the Supreme Council of the Scottish Rite Masons of the thirtd-third degree for the State of Louisiana, in officially recognizing the colored Masons of that State. It is quite significant that the action should first be taken in former slave holding community.
