GOOD TIMES AT RICHMOND.

A Number of Concerns Paid Off Their
Hands in Gold.
Richmond, Va, Nov. 9.-The Tredegar
Iron works started up its spike mill this
morning, which gives a considerable
number Of men employment.
The two street railway companies,
most of the tobacco factories and quite a
number of other concerns paid their en-
ployes in gold on Saturday.
1t is confidently believed now that work
on the proposed great terminal improve
ments here by the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railway company will be begun no later
than next spring.
Everything is in readiness so far as
the plans are concerned. The city and
company have come to an understand
ing and the only thing in the way now
is the matter of crossing the free bridge
over the James river. The carrying out
of the present plan for crossing this
bridge is yet to be approved by the Man,
chester council. The work involves the
expenditure of several million dollars.

and Solly punched him right and left.
When time was called for the
fourth round the American was again
the aggressor, landing repeatedly on Will
lies throat and head, but not stopping
him.
In the fifth round Solly sent home a
heavy blow.
The sixth round was remarkable for
nothing, save the strong fighting of the
American, who, however, did no very
great damage to hisopponent.
Solly's work in the seventh round was
of the hurricane order. He fought the
Englishman up and down, and the lat

In the eighth round Solly punched Will

GEORGE WEBER'S FORTUNE.
A Californian Given a Magni.
fcent Position in South
Africa.
Made General Manager of the Deep
Level Development Company
M neS.

BY the appointment of George E. Weber,
q veteran California mining man. as gen
eral manager of the Deep Level Develop
ment Companys mines, on the Rand, in
South Africa, another representative of
the Golden State has been given high
salaried position in the African gold fields,
for which mining experts the world over
are now striving.
Mr.. Weber, who for many years was
well known in this State, went to South
Africa several years ago when the rush to
the new Ell Dorado began, and soon made
his mark as an expert of ability. He was
given charge of the Crown Reef mines,
which are considered very valuable prop
critics. and held his position until the Deep
Level people decided to find a successor to
II. C. Perkins, also an old Californian, who
had been at the helm for some time.
Mr.. Weber at first declined to leave the
position he was occupying, but when the
Deep Level Com pany raised its bid 10 S25-
coo year, the highest salary paid an
American mining engineer in Africa, he
decided TO accept, and is now in full
charge.
The claims of the Deep Level Develop
ment Company are situated at some dis
tance from the main claims on the Rand
and the formation of the company was
due to the peculiar provisions of the South
African mining law.
In California when vein dips under the
claim of another company, the parties who
are following it are entitled to continue,
though they 20 under half a dozen other
properties.
In South Africa the vertical line of the
boundary of the claim limits its property
and beyond the owners must not go.
The body of ore on which the Rand is
situated dips away sharply and at short
distance is 1900 to 1000 feet below the sur
face. The Deep Level Company took up
and bought large number of outside
claims and intends to sink deep shafts to
tap the lode.
Mr.. Weber. who has had much ex-
perience in deep mines in the Black Hills
and in Venezuela, is expected to superin-
tend the work to the iull satisfaction of
the company.

Value Given Wire BY Labor.

Ia an address before an association
Of iron and steel managers In England
some new statistics we're brought up
on the remarkable achievements that
have been noted in the manufacture
OF fine wire. Tho speaker said that
be had been presented by a wire
manufactures with specimens Of wire
for which S4.32, or more than $4,000
per ton, was paid. This wire was
largely used in tho construction Of
pianos aud other musical and
mechanical instruments Ae.
companying these was a sam
pie Of pinion wire, which had a mar
ket value Of s21.6O per pound, or
S43, 200 per ton. A still more re-
markable illustration of how a piece
Of steel can be treated so IS to become
more costly than gold is seen in the
manufacture Of hair-springs. OF these
it takes 754 to weigh an ounce of 437-
10 grains, and 1900, 600 Of them to
go to the ton, which would cost $780,
600. Probably the limit of the value
that can be given to steel by skilled
labor is reached in tho case of the
barbed instruments used by dentists
for extracting nerves from teeth,
which are sold at the rate Of some 50,
100, 900 per ton
