is again well occupied. The fact is
this scraping over the surface is not bv
any means the best way to kill weeds

other respects. A good hoeing should
touch and stir the whole surface and
freshen it, and give the weeds such q
setback that they will not recover

OLD LIGHTHOUSE.

Was Built by the Romans and Is Still in
 Good Condition.
 The oldest house existing in Eng land is the Roman Pharos or lighthouse, which still forms so conspicuous an ob- ject on the cliffs within the precincts of Dover castle. The masonry of this interesting work is composed of tufa, cement and Roman bricks, or tiles, and is in the best style of Roman workman. ship. History and tradition arc alike silent as to the actual date of its erec- tion, but, judging from the style of masonry, and bearing in mind that the erection of such a beacon would be a practical necessity when once the Ro- mans had thoroughly established them selves in southern Britain, one may fairly ascribe it to date not much later than the middle of the first century, A. D., following on the expedition of Clau- dius, and the succeeding conquests of Plautius. who brought most of the island south of the Thames under the Roman domination. To the upper part of this lighthouse was added in Tudor times an octagonal superstructure, still remaining. although in a sadly bat tered condition. The remains of lake dwellings,, such as have been found at Burton Mere, in Suffolk, and near Glas tonbury, in Somerset, are supposed by some to date back so far as 1900 B. C.; but, although these are built on piles, they hardly come within the meaning of the question.

JUST A PLAIN WIND.
But It Did Damage at Brookings All
 the Same.

BROOKINGS, s. D., June 13.-Dur- ing the storm lightning struck the Norwegian church steeple, shattering it and setting fire to the roof. A del- uge of water fell about o'clock and the storm was driven by heavy wind. A farm barn, about seven miles south of Brookings, was picked up bodily and carried some distance, crashing through the side of a farm house. H. H. Avery, who was in the house, was struck on the head by timber and seriously injured, and a little child re- ceived severe wounds from broken glass. A young man named Charles Gray, near White, was killed by a stroke of lightning during the same storm. A gale swept over the country and from the north and east it is re- ported that considerable damage was done to buildings and windmills. Sev- eral narrow escapes are reported. At Elkton a large number of buildings were badly damaged by the wind.

A NEW FISH.
Discovered by Anglers in a Minnesota
 Lake.

ANOKA, Minn., June 13.-Charles
 Dunn and party of fishermen from
 this section of the country claim to have discovered a new variety of fish. It seems that on recent expedition the party camped on the shores of a small, but deep, lake just north of this county, situated in the woods, and rarely visited. It is usually known as Eagle lake. There has been no boat on the lake for years. Desiring to have few fish for supper they launched a boat which they carried and cast their lines for bite. The bites came thick and fast and in a few minutes they had a good meal. In the excitement they had hardly noticed the fish they were taking, except that they were large, about three pounders, and ap- parently pickerel. On going ashore and taking out the fish to carry to l camp the boys were surprised to see that the fish were not pickerel or were at least new variety. The sides were | covered with spots, the scales were more like trout than pickerel scales, and the body had pinkish tinge, when l first taken from the water They were | IohCd CO Dul uO Ou0 COulu udlu6 the species to which the fish belonged
 On cleaning the fish for supper the surprise was greater to see that the flesh was of an almost salmon yellow
 Various conjectures were made, some ascribing the appearance of the fish to the character of the bottom of the lake. No satisfactory explanation was made, but next morning an old trap per arrived on the scene, and on being questioned he explained that so far as he knew the origin of the fish was as follows: A good many years ago the lake had but few fish in it, mostly z small kind of pickerel. As an expert ment certain fish commissioner stocked the lake with salmon trout, ol a similar fish; no trout had been caughr there of late years, nor had any pick
 erel, but the fish all bore the composite marks of both the trout and pickerel

THE TROUBLE AT GLOBE How the Old Dominion
 Closed. Entire Force Discharged by
 the Company. Speculatlons as to .he Future of Arizona's Great Copper 

Globe Silver Belt: The expected has happened. AS a result of the preclpl- tate and incorporate action Of some or the miners on the night of May 3l, in compelling Superintendent Parnall by threats of personal violence, to accede to their demands, which were deemed unreasonable, an order was receivd by telegraph Tuesday night from the of- flee of the company in Boston direct ing Superintendent Parnall to shut down the mine and smelter and pay oil at once. Instructions were promptly obeyed; all work in the mine was sus- pended at o'clock a. m., and the fur naces blown out at o'clock a. m. on Wednesday. Only four men are re- tained at the mine to keep the pump in operation. Wood contracts have been suspended and the sawmill will, in all likelihood be closed down within day or two. Coke hauling will probably continue until all coke now in transit has been delivered here.
 Superintendent ParnaI has no infor- nation of the intentions of the con- pany further than the brief instruc- tions contained in the telegram re-
 
 at the turn affairs have taken, declines to hazard an opinion as to the dura- tion of the shut down. However, the general impression is-and appears to have some foundation-that the sus- pension will continue for some time probably for several months, and that when work is resumed it will be con- fined to development of the mine.
 Public sentiment seems to have un- dergone change during the past week and especially since the people who have direct interest in the welfare o1 Globe have come to realize the possi- bility of long-continued suspension and the disastrous effect which it must have upon every business interest, as we'll as the tendency to discourage the investment of capital in other mining enterprises.

THE OLD DOMINION TROUBLE
The Miners Give Their Version of the
 Disagreement.

Editors Silver Belt: As you have published MT. Parnalls statement con- cerning the recent trouble at the Old Dominion mine, it seems to me only fair to give both sides of the question to the public. I request you, there fore, to publish the following:
 MT. Parnall's statement is got up with an evident desire to create a favorable impression amongst out siders regarding the management of the mine, but he will, I think, find it 8 difficult matter to hoodwink this com munity. It is rather late in the day for him to pose as friend to labor.
 It seems a curious thing that MT. Parnall did not inform the men con- cerned of his intentions, instead of arbitrarily causing them to be notified that their wages would be reduced from the first of the month following He only made the statement concerning the contract system after he was en- phatically informed that the men would not submit to further reduction peaceably, this being the second cut within five months.
 The violence attempted on Saturday night was only by one or two men un- der the influence of liquor, and smart ing under injustice, and was quelled by members of the crowd immediately and before MT. Parnall could have been in any way injured.

COLOR OF WOMEN'S EYES.
The Mere Question of Pigment Has Set
 tied Many Mans Fate.


 Did you ever notice that men always instincrively put confidence in a girl with blue eyes, and have their sus- picions of the girl with brilliant black ones. and will you kindly tell me why? asks writer in the Ladies Home Jour nal. Is it that the limpid blue eye, transparent and gentle, suggests all the soft, womanly virtues, and because lie thinks he can see through it, clear down into that blue-eyed girls soul, that she is the kind of girl he fancies she is? l think it is, but some of the greatest little frauds 1 know are the purry. Eitteny girls with the big inno- cent blue eyes. Blazing black eyes, and the rich. warm colors, which dark skinned women have to wear suggest energy and brilliance and no end of intellect. Men look into such eyes and seem not 10 be able to see below the surface. They have not the pleasure of a long, deep gaze into immeasurable depths. And so they think her design ing and clever, and, perhaps God save the marx. J, even lntth -ectudl, Wueu perhaps, she has wealth of love and de- votion and heroism stored up behind that irnpulsive disposition and those dazzling black eyes, which would do and dare more i'll a minute for some man she had set that great heart of hers upon, than your cold-blooded, tranquil blond would do in 40 years. A mere 1 question of pigment in the eye has set | tied many d mans fate in life, and es- 1 abolished him with a wife who turned out to be very different from the girl he fondly thought he was getting.

pany are not affected by the reduction of wages in the Old Dominion, for if the superintendent be notified by his company that he is paying more wages than the Old Dominion company, and to reduce them, he must necessarily do so, or some other man will be put in his place.
 The spokesman referred to by MT. Parnall has probably not had the edu- cational advantages of the latter. He is, I understand, however, a good me- chanic, and acted by request.
 MT. Parnall could scarcely expect to be treated courteously by men whom he never failed to treat with utterly uncalled for want of courtesy, and to whom he always showed himself an autocrat.
 The demands made of MT. Parnall, among others, was That no man con- nected with the party should be dis charged on that account; that the union should be the judge
 The Silver Belt is mistaken in the statement that Mexicans were only em- ployed where white men would not work. Aside from the quarry they were III luC luIuC clt WOl h that white man would have been glad to obtain, and even in the quarry the old company, I am informed, used to run out more lime with white men than the present company with MeXi- cans, despite the Arizona sun. Any person familiar with this coun- try knows that where Mexicans obtain a foothold the white man (the Ameri- can speaking white man at leasD is soon busted or working for starvation wages. The situation amounts to this Whether the residents of this locality who have made their homes here, are to be allowed to earn decent living or whether they must give way to un- desirable aliens who do not (and ir most cases will not when they can, speak the American language.
 Mr Parnall has proved himself since his residence here a man who would be an autocrat; one whose interests are entirely foreign to this territory and this community.
