Mandolin and Guitar Clubs.

The mandolin and guitar were never
before so popular in this country as at
present. The manufacturers state that
it is almost impossible to fill their or
ders, especially in the West, where
there is a greater interest manifested
than anywhere else. Hundreds Of
young ladies and gentlemen, after ac-
quiring a slight knowledge of these in
struments, have organized small clubs,
numbering from four to ten members,
as soon as they are capable of playing
their score
An instrument new to this country
has recently been introduced in these
mandolin and guitar clubs, with pleas
ing effect. 1t is one of the mandolin
family, and named the ''mandola. !"
The meaning of the word mandola is
almond" and it is supposed that the
shape of the instrument has given it
its. Iraine 1t is similar to the viola in
tone. being tuned one-ffth below the
mandolin In clubs it takes the second
parts, as it possesses a rich alto quail
ity of tone Tt made it's first appear
ance in Northern Europesat the court
of Mary, queen of Scots, In connection
with the Inflated musician, David
Rizzia. AS a solo instrument 1t is SUI
perior to the mandolin in power and
quality of tone
The mandolin is particularly adapted
to ladies' as their fingers are flexible,
and they play with more delicate
touch than the opposite sex.-Bostor

Although the residents of Empire. a

The witch in the case is man.
George Evans, Il boss at the Empire
mine. He Is accused of being in league
with the Old Nick. The man who
makes the direct charge against Evans
is John Caffrey, employed as 4 miner
at the Empire colliery, and working
under the direction OF r.vans. Caffrey
says that about a month ago Evans
wanted to buy his COW. Caffrey re-
fused to sell, whercupon Caffrey says
that Evans said: "Well, you can keep
your old cow, but ! will fix her. She'll
never be any good to YOU any more"
The next day when Caffrey returned
from work his wife met him. and with
COW would give no milk. 1t was So.
Day after day Caltrey waited for the
COW to give her milk, but without avail.
At the end of week he went to Evans
and asked him why he wanted to in

injure him more than he had the COW IL
Caffrey was not careful. He renewed
his request for the COW and increased
his offer. Caffrey again refused.

A physician was called and he said he
did not know what the trouble was, but
that it was not serious. Nevertheless

Then Caffrey had some narrow es-
capes in the mines, a blast going off
near him one day, and on several occa-
sions masses of loose rock and coal
falling from the roof dangerously near
him. All these things he attributes to
the spells which Evans has cast upon
him. and his neighbors thoroughly
agree with him.
So intense has the feeling become in
the last few days that Evans has been
compelled to keep in his house as
much as possible, fearing that he might
be mobbed If he Ventured out.

They Will Probably Have a fresi-
Dental Candidate in the Field.
PROTECTION AND BIMETALLISM
Unless the Republican Party Recognizes

eron Not a Candidate.

Philadelphia, Feb. 25.-The probabil-
ity of the silver Republicans breaking
away from the regular party candidate
for president and placing an independ
ent candidate in the field on bimetallc
platform is finding many believers
here.
1t is said that the choice of the sill
vertes now lies between Senator Teller
of Colorado, and Wharton Barker, a
iinancicr of Phila delphia, and Il pro-
nounced bimetallist.
When Senator Cameron announced
that he would not be candidate for
re-electi ion to the United States SEN
ate, it had been decided, X is said. to
make him the candidate of the silver
people; but within the week he is said
to have announced that he will not be
the candidate, and now there seems to
be a we'll defined impression that he will
endeaVor to return to the senate.
1t is announced from an authoritative
source that unless the Republican con-
vention in st. Louis shall adopt the BIZ
metallism plank at the ratio of l5ia to
there will be bolt. The silver people
are at present attempting to work the
reform" within the party. but railing
in that they will go before the people.
If the Republican platform is a gold
platform it will mean three tickets in
the field The new party viii be named
the American party, its principles Will
be high protection and bimetallism.
and it's platform will he the circular to
which Wharton Barker got the sigma
lures of sixteen United state senator's
RIDICULE HARMLESS.
While the new movement Is being
fought with ridicule, as it's supporters
put 1.-THE promoters are not dlscour-
aged They allege to have mass OF
endorsements, all of which they will
make public They allege. too that
they hold the balance OF power in sew
eral states, notably New York and In
diana and these are the levers they
will use to attempt to compel the Re-
publican convention to adopt a plank
in the platform in the line of what is
commonly called free silver. Those
capable of expressing an opinion as
to the intention of the Republican party
do not for a moment believe that it
will commit itself to anything but a
gold platform, aud the silverites seem
to think the same way for 1t is Indirect
ly admitted that plans are made to
hold the silver convention in July, and
while the place has not been decided
upon it is not unlikely that it VIII be in
this city. The effort win be to hold it
somewhere in the east to show that the
west is not alone vigorous in this new
movement. All the leaders of the party
agree that it Is 100 early to discuss
the plans the work at present is con-
fined TO missionary endeavors in the
Republican party.
1t is also the argument that an east
ern candidate at the head of the silver
ticket. endorsed by prominent eastern
business men. would make the cam
paign of education less difficult, as such
conditions would promote inquiry, and
thus more easily attract study.

THE DEEPEST SHAFT.
Calumet aud IIccla Copper Workers
Have Penetrated Nearly 5000 Feet
Underground.

Houghton. Mich, Feb 23-At the
greatest depth ever attained in the
world, the miners at the Red jacket
shaft of the Calumet and Hecla copper
mine have stopped work having com
pleted the new shaft to the required
depth 1900 feet, to the conglomerate
lode. and the limit of the company's
underground territory. The shaft was
started in the fall of 1889. and has been
pushed continuously ever since. 1t is
the most costly undertaking ever car
ried out by mining company in
America. 1t is also the largest shaft in
the world.
1t is IA by 22h feet inside, divided
into six compartments. and timbered
throughout with Georgia pine. More
than 10000. 900 feet of timber was re-
quired in the work. At the shaft there
is already in place the most powerful
machinery known to mines. consisting
of two pair of triple expansion en-
gines, each of 5000 horse pOwerand cap
able of raising 10 tons $500 feet per
minute. There remains only the con-
struction of a steel shaft house before
the shaft will be in commission. Dur
ing its construction but one serious
fatality occurred, that being the death
of ten men by mistake in signals by the
engineer.
