LUCK IN MINING.

Two Blasts that Showed II Miner Where
He Made His Mistake.
"One man cannot see as far into the
ground as another said John Pritchard
of Aspen yesterday, ''and there isn't
little bit of truth in the saying that he
can when applied to mining operations.
Thousands of instances might be
brought forward to prove my position,
and | learned the lesson very early III
my mining career. The Tenn Boy story
is an illustration of this. Everybody
thought J. Ernest Waters was wild to
spend SO much money on IT, and yet II
is today being negotiated for S2,oOO.OOO,
after paying more than 100000 in div
idends in less than two years.
Il was down in the San Juan country
in 1881, and had Il claim over on Sultan
Mountain, which | called the Jessie, 1t
was promising crevice, and L worked
at it faithfully until | had expended
nearly $500, mainly for grub and pow
der, living alone in my cabin and ire
quently working fifteen hours day.
Then | sent home and father sent me
$500 more. which | used up. By that
time / had been at work nearly two
years, and had driven my tunnel in about
200 feet, every inch of it with my own
hands. Then | became discouraged, as
| knew father had a mortgage on the Old
place and couldn't afford to help me any
more. | got credit for 500 and kept at
work, driving the tunnel fifty feet fur
Their, and then | felt that L was at the
end of my rope.
Zone day as / was gathering up my
tools to quit, nicely dressed man saun-
tered up to the tunnel and began to look
around, He asked to see the tunnel
which was mostly in solid rock without
timbering, and after he had closely ex-
amined both walls, asked me If | wanted
to sell. l feigned Indifference, and, after
calculating go feet of tunneling at $40
foot, answered that | might sell if

he asked. Twenty-Five hundred dollars
| replied, with my heart in my mouth.
Come down to town and get your
money, was the answer, and that night
l slept with $500 under my pillow, i'll
clean sheets for the first time in two
years. Next morning the purchaser
asked me to help him put in a couple of
shots, and of course L agreed. When
we got to the tunnel he examined the
wall and selected point about 100 feet
from the mouth. Let $ drill Il couple of
holes here, he said. The minute he laid
hold of the sledge | saw he was a miner,
and in short time we had two beauti-
full holes in the rock When the shots
went off l could hardly restrain myself
from rushing into the tunnel at once, and
when the smoke cleared away | was the

chaser had enabled him TO detect the

Il stayed around there week, by
which time he had taken out enough ore
to pay for the cost of the mine, and then
L went home and paid off the mortgage
on the farm. and I've got the farm yet,

$4,000 was taken our of that hole, and

HER LIFE SAVED.

"My only daughter, Lille, aged 16
years, was, until about a year ago, trou-
bled very badly with her heart said
Mrs. Thomas Manning, Of Washburn,
Wis, 70 a reporter recently. eff she
went upstairs it had to be done very slow
ly and she would be all tired out when
she got half way up. She was unable to
do any sweeping or washing, or in fact
any work at all requiring any exertion
whatever. We spent many dollars for
medicine and doctors advice, until finally
we were told she was incurable, and that
they could do nothing which would be Of
permanent benefit to her. She was grad
ually but surely getting worse, and in
fact after we had tried almost everything
we could think of without relief, we made
up our minds there was no hope for her.
"One day my son read an advertise

Where Ships Knees Come From.

A man who hunts through the Maine
forests at nearly all. seasons of the year
is the ship-knee expert. Since the de-
cline of shipbuilding in this country, and
the introduction of iron and steel vessels
the demand for ship-knees has dwindled
considerably, but there are enough used
in the shipyards along the coast to keep
several hundred men busy hunting for
ship-knees. Very few trees will yield
the proper timber for this work, and ex-
perts are constantly tramping through
the Maine woods to mark trees that will
answer the demands of the trade. When
a good hackmatack or white oak suit
able for the shipbuilding trade is found
the expert either marks the tree or cuts
it down Immediately. The knees are
cut and seasoned and shipped to the
coast roughly hewn out, but for large
ones the experts receive enough to make
any amount of trouble in securing them
profitable. The cypress knees of the
South Atlantic states have in recent
years injured the business of the Maine
men, but the demand for knees suitable
for yachts and small coasting vessels is
such that the experts are never at Il loss
to sell their seasons products, even
though sometimes at relatively small fig
ures.-Correspon New York Evening
Post.

THE RAT-TRAP LIGHT.
French Naval Officers Consider 1t
Wonderful Invention.


Wonderful Invention.
Quite recently there has been brought
out by the French navy a mysterious de-
vice known as ga ratiere," or the "rat
trap light" says an exchange. 1t is a
thing of small dimensions and is placed
on the deck of the vessel. It throws out
an electric light that can only be discov-
cred dead ahead. La ratiere is con-
structed as follows: A square box has
within it at one end a cencave mirror, in
front of which is adjusted an arc light
lens placed midway of the length of the
box, so that the rays of light are project
ed through a silvered tube as a bundle
Of parallel rays.
BY the sides of the outer end of the
silvered tube are placed two prisms one
of red and the other of green glass,
through which a portion of the light
passes in divergent rays. At q distance
of several miles the light Of a ratiere
appears as small point and consequent
ly difficult of detection to those not know
ing the quarter in which to look for it.
Its detection is thus reduced to a mini
mum, as it can only be seen within q
radius Of a few feet at such distance.
The use of the red and green rays is
for the purpose of enabling the vessel
for whom the signal is intended to know
in which direction to steer so as TO come
within the zone OF the white light should
the white ray disappear. By means of
this invention night signals can be made
when flashlights and rockets might be
useless or liable to betray the position of
the feet to the enemy. It can also be
used as a guide to a squadron in line,
with all other lights out, in dangerous
ATTITUDES, as it cannot be seen either to
the right Or left. but only dead ahead or
dead astern. The French admiralty at
taches great Importance to this light, and
has taken extraordinary precautions to
guard it against discovery.

Phosphor Rronze.

Phosphor bronze has long taken its
place in the industrial world, and now
ehe English manufacturers of this prod
ct,report an alloy of it, termed melloid
which is a malleable phosphor bronze,
having the property of being forgeable
ct q red heat like steel. It is made of
the finest copper and tin, containing no
other metal whatever. Its resistance to
corrosion is stated to be complete, while
the tensile strength is as high as that of
mill steel. These qualities render mel
loid of the greatest value for tropical
climates, and wherever d combination of
great strength with maximum resistance
to corrosion is required, as, for instance,
in boiler stays, freboXes, boiler tubes,
condenser tubes, condenser plates,
pump and piston rods, bolts and nuts
exposed to moisture. etc. 1t has maxi

Novel Tower for Paris Exposition.

Novel Tower for Paris Exposition.
M. Devic, the French engineer, has a
great scheme for the Paris Exhibition Of
1900. One or two stupendous plans he
has proposed have been rejected, not on
their dement's, but on account of the
vast sums necessary to carry them out
So M. Devic has determined to complete
his present scheme at his own expense.
1t consists of a tower 400 feet high
turning upon a pivot and making COM
plete rotation in an hour. The visitors
seated at tables in the different restau-
rants contained in the tower will not
perceive that they are moving, but will
enjoy a panorama of all Paris.
