His Weekly Review of the Mining
Share Market.

His Weekly Review of the Mining
Share Market.
James a. Pollock will say in his
weekly mining share market letter I'M
der date Of May 20, 1896:
The market during the past week
was hardly all that was expected, and
some of the stocks, early in the week,
showed tendency to weaken, due al
most entirely to an absence of buying
orders. There were some exceptions,
notably Mercur, Silver King, Swansea,
Ontario Galena and Utah, among the
investment stocks, and Lucky Bill and
Tetro of the speculatives. The close
was fairly strong with orders more
numerous. There is some fear that la
Dor troubles after June l will cause
slumpy market. This may be the case
with a few Of the stocks, but there is
no fear from this cause in connection
with Bullion-Beck, Centennial Eureka,
Daily, Galena, Utah, Mercur, Ontario,
Silver King and Sunshine and most of
the speculative stocks. In fact, it is
quite possible that there will be no
troubles whatever of this nature in
Utah.

A Locator Can Claim All Claims Un-

der Certain Conditions.
w D., of Alpine, writes The Herald
asking if g person, in locating a min
eral claim. can hold two separate veins
on the same claim, each being different
in it's formation and he then proceeds
to illustrate the point by diagrams.

ner of the claim marked "a laps over

But w. D.. in his communica ton,
fails to state which claim held the
prior location. IA or b
For arguments sake we villa hold that
in the location of these claims the law
governing mining locations was fully
complied with.
If "A" had the prior location, then
"a" can claim all the mineral on the
lode, even if there are a dozen veins,
and the apex on his ground, and he
can follow the veins through his side
lines if they go out; but. according to
the diagram sent, IA would receive
but very little benefit if he was the
prior locator, as the vein or ledge would
run through only a small fraction of
his claim. He could not go beyond his
end line, and he could control only
few feet of it along his side line.
On the other hand If "B' had the
prior location, he could hold most Of the
ledge. and IN fact, all of it, as "a"
could not lap over and claim any Of his
ground. Therefore, without doubt, 3D.
would have the vein and the apex and
Nould own all the mineral on the ledge
within mis- side and end lines.
1t is a question Of priority of Local
ton in the first place; and then if a.
had the prior right, the matter would
resolve itself into an end line and apex

General Sherman intended his son for
the law, and with this in view he was
sent first to the University of st. Louis
and then to the Georgetown university.
Young Sherman graduated from the
latter at the age of 16 and then went
to Yale, where he took a two years.
course in the Sheffield Scientific school,
and was graduated from the Yale Law
school Thus equipped he returned to
st. Louis and began the practice of his
profession. He was successful from the
very start and soon had large practice.
He also took a prominent part in So
ciety and was looked upon with consid-
cradle favor by bellies and debutantes.
One day in 1877, to the surprise of
most of his friends, he turned his back
upon the gay whirl of society and the
fascinating pursuit of his profession
and entered the Society of Jesus, re-
nOuncing all property and consigning
himself to life of piety and self sacri-
fee. His father was very much disap-
pointed and opposed the step. His
friends brought strong influences to bear
upon him, but they could not dissuade
him from his purpose. He had, by the
way, the approval of his mother.
After passing two years of his novi-
tate in England he returned to Ameri-
ca and became a professor in Jesuit col
leges. He has been engaged in this work
ever since, giving occasional lectures
and now and then contributing articles
to the magazines Just what his future
will be is not fixed, but he may be given
a country parish and settle down in
pious obscurity.
