THE CIRCUS.

Bond Bros. circus has been and gone.
While not as large as many others, 1t
cannot be denied that it is a very well
arranged show. Things moved with
remarkable precision and dispatch, and
some of the acts were really remark
able exhibitions. Among these the
trapeze acts of La Roe brothers stand
out prominently. The show is partic-
ularly strong in trained animals, the
troupe of horses being a splendid fea-
ture. The best Of order prevailed about
the grounds. The managers and at
tachees who come in contact with the
public were certainly gentlemen and If
there were any toughs along they were
certainly not in evidence. The attend
ance at the afternoon performance was
light; that in the evening was much
better.

ErightfuI Accident.

Mrs. Foster, an elderly lady 6S years
of age, residing at Whitney. was the
victim of a most serious accident at her
home on Saturday evening. She went
into the corral, where there was a COW
with young calf, and was instantly
attacked by the vicious animal. Just
how the accident happened the lady
herself does not know, but it is sup
posed that the cow first hooked and
knocked her down and then jumped
upon her with its feet, as there was an
ugly cash torn from the right eye
around to the back of the head, raising
the scalp and requiring ten stitches to
hold it in place; her left SHOULDER was
badly fractured, five ribs broken on
the left side, two of them in two places,
and her left ankle smashed. She was
also injured internally. DR.. Garfield,
who is attending Mrs. Foster, at first
had but little hope for his patient, not
knowing how badly she was hurt in
ternally, but as she has been resting
comfortably and is getting along as
well as could be expected, he now has
soma hopes of her recovery.-New Era.

Misfortunes That Beset OsculatOry

A jury has just rendered a verdict
for $1,000 against a jay for kissing
woman against her will. Such actions
on the part of those jurymen will up
set the present social habit of oscula-
,tion Almost invariably when asked to
osculate, a woman says no. How does
a man know whether she means it or
is making a grand stand play Men,
as a rule, are not mind readers; neither
do they care to overlook "a bet and be
voted a variegated chump by pretty
woman who has had her mouth puck
cred for week; yet if he swoops down
upon the sweetness like red holly
hook, visions of libel suit stare him
in the face and the pleasure is serious
ly n1arred. Man, throughout all ages,
has been his own enemy and such fool
ish jurors will spoil the custom that
has existed for ages.-Arizona Gazette.

MOUNTAIN OF COPPER.
EngIishmen Own Valuable Emil
hence Out in California.

The great mass Of copper in Shasta
mine is so nearly ready for exploration
that its owner, the Mountain Mines
company limited, has entered into an
agreement with the Southern Pacific
company for enormous shipments of
the metal to San Francisco. The min
ing company has notified the railroad
people that it expects to ship out 1000
tons of copper matte several times a
month. If these expectations be rea-
lized, the mine will be only second in
production to the celebrated Anaconda.
To carry the Iron Mountain MATES, 100
cars, carrying each ten tons, will be re-
quired The MATES will be carried a
distance of twelve miles above Reading
From there to this city the crude copper
will be carried by the Southern Pacific
at the rate of IS cents a ton. Arriving
here the MATES will be placed on ship
board and taken to Swansea, Wales,
for final refinement. The base of the
mates will be of copper, but it is cal
culated that there will be enough gold
and silver to pay for the work, leav-
ing the red metal clear profit to the
English owners.
For months they have had 1000 men
employed building the railroad and get
ting the works at the mine in order
When this is done the force will be re-
duced to 900 men. engaged almost ex-
clusively on the mine itself. -Four
smelters are being erected, one of which
is almost finished They will run six
hours a day each and will be operated
by electricity This system of econo-
MIXING power produces maximum re-
suits at minimum expenditure, and is
the plan followed by the company at its
Denver works. The mine is dry, and
no difficulty, it is said, will be exper-
fenced in taking out the ore by means
of tunnels So far over 81 200, 900 has
been expended in developing the enter
prise.-San Francisco Bulletin.

affectionate parents and loving sis
tiers. Previous to the rash act which
ended his life the young man addressed
farewell letter to his mother in which
he told a tale of despair over blighted
affections and in most endearing terms
entreated the forgiveness of the mem
bers of his family. The letter is sacred
to the family, and no one outside of his
Immediate relatives read the story of a

There is a scandal over a telegram
sent by Major Llewellyn, Of New

son, editor of the Iowa state Journal.
The telegram was private and of a
political nature. Within ten minutes
after it had been sent the contents was
common discussion on the streets OF

Major Llewellyn is justly indignant
and an investigation is being made to
ascertai how it happened. One thing
certain it is thought the operator is
not to blame but there are other
avenues whereby it might be picked
up. Some heads would drop should
the culprit be found.
