a reawakening of earnestnesS, of faith
in the verities of life. This lesson let
the young men of our day learn from
the first citizen of the new republic,
that earnest faith is needed for any
WORTHY achievement in life.
But more potent than any or all in
dividual qualities in Washington was
that subtle something which We call
character. Emerson says: We can
not find the smallest part of the per-
sonal weight of Washington in the mar
rative of his exploits" The same thing
might be said of an analysis of his
ability in different lines. Hamilton was
an ADLER statesman, Franklin a better
diplomat and clearer reasoner, Jeffer-
son was broader in his conception of
democracy. and a dozen men around
him were his superiOrs in education.
But he alone possessed that weight of
personality which attracted all others
to him by sort of psychic gravita-
ton. Without effort he gained and
held the confidence of men,
Still there was nothing mysterious in
this power. Both the biographers and
the painters of Washington have
painted him in unreal outlines, as a
sort of impossible and sanity creation
rather than man, an object of adora-
ton rather than fellow citizen. The
influence of Washington would be
greatly enhanced by bringing him
nearer to US. The Goth century painter
will remove the pedestal and halo and
give us the reflection of simple. ear
nest, manly life In this new picture we
shall love the man more, and not ad-
mire the hero less.
The speaker closed with an appeal
to the young manhood of Utah 10 emu

the nation who lived century ago.

In announcing the lecture of Rabbi
Kaiser FOR last evening Mr.. Hudson
took occasion to say that these Sun
day evening platform lectures are not
in any way intended as an expression
of Unitarianism, but, on the contrary,
as Independent discussions of questions
of public interest from different stand
points The aim is similar to that of
the parliament of religions at the
Worlds Fair, where Turk and Chris
tan spoke from the same platform.

The ranks of the unemployed include
all kinds of mechanics in the building
line, skilled miners and common labor
ers. Some of them have been unable
to get a tap to do for a whole year,
and all are eager for work. So such
statements as the one alluded to not
only hurt Park City. but work a real
hardship on impecunious voiETnen VINO

of employment only to meet with dis

acknowledge it. but the fact is unde-
niable that Park City is today over
run with men seeking employment.
and while no cases of real distress are
reported, many men are subsisting on
one meal day, and they are mighty
glad to get that.

A Correction.

To the Editor of The Herald:
We beg to say through the columns
of your paper that we have been badly
misrepresented regarding the recent
sickness of our little girl. We desire to
say that none of our children were in
school anv time after the little girl
first complained OF being sick, and
that no children in the neighborhood
nor from any part of the city were
in anv part of our yard or premises
after the child was sick. and that no
one but the Scientist was in the house
during her sickness. and that Sergeant
Wire was not on duty any time after
the child was sick, except the first
day, and then she complained very lit
tie and no one knew what the ailment
was. We desire TO say that the city
physician who called to quarantine
the place is the only physician who
has been on my premises, and he was
kindly treated and all his questions
answered DIR. Niles nor no other ply
sician has been on my premises. The
quarantine rules have been lived up TO
since We knew the nature of the all
ment. If you will publish the above
we will feel greatly obliged.

1T MEANS MILLIONS.
Claimed That Six Dollar Ore Can Be
Worked.

A press dispatch from Rossland
British Columbia. says: W. r. Rust,
manager of the Tacoma smelter. has
been making some experiments with
the SiliciouS ores of the LIE Roi The
results are favorable. He says:
Il have always realized that the flu
ture of this camp lay in its low grade
ores. The tests l have made of the
silicious ores of LIE Roi satisfy me
that the gold value is in combination
with the iron and not with the quartz
This being the case, it is apparent
that the value can be saved by water
concentration.
1 have advised the LIE Roi people to
treat a car load or two of their ore at
the Q. K. mill to test my theory
Should test result as 1 believe it will,
the value to Rossland can hardly be
calculated. Ore running Sc per ton can
easily be worked at profit if con-
centration in the mill pans out the
values
He thinks that many other mines be-
sides the LIE Roi have ore that can be
concentrated by water
Subscriptions have reached $3.50 for
the purpose of putting in a very much
needed sewer on Columbia avenue
The board of trade tonight will spec
tally invite the o. R. c. delegates to
the annual convention at Los Angeles
in May, to visit Rossland on their re-
turn.
The contention as to the title of Jail
road lots has no effect on sales, S14, 200

matter is bitter and serious trouble

Ian, of Garden Valley. this county,
was killed in the Black Jack mine, at
Silver City (where he had been a.:

happened to be in town. He left i'm
mediately for Silver and reached there
Wednesday night. Jimmie was un-
conscious when he arrived and dieo
soon thereafter John started for home
yesterday morning with the remains.
James Seaman was an exemplary
young man and has many warm

strate this, put some V-shaped clamps
on a piece of fuse and see how long ii
will take 10 burn by certain points.
Long after the fuse is supposed to be
out, loosen the clamps and see how
quickly it will spit at the other end
some noles do miss fire and have to be
picked out. In these, great care should
be exercised, and not clean down nearer
than five inches of the cap, then re-
load with another charge. and instead
of using small piece of powder, use
plenty. heavy charge on top may
destroy the effectiveness of the lower
charge, but it will explode it and get
rid of a bad job. If the collar" of the
hole is simply blown off, and the lower
charge has not broken the bottom of
the hole, do not drop in a drill or
spoon to see how much hole there is
left, leave it alone as long as possible
The powder may have frozen and all
may not have been consumed.
Caps are charged with illuminate of
mercury, one of the most violent eX-
plosives and one of the most unstable
chemically. and may explode from the
slightest jar or the least amount of
friction. The caps at all times should
be stored we'll away from the powder.
and at no time in or around a miners
pocket.
Powder should under no circum-
stances be stored under ground. Poor
ventilation with damp air will produce
decomposition, and decomposition, ex-
plosion.
There is practically no danger in
transporting powder in cases when
frozen. Even well-thawed powder will
not explode from any of the jars oc-
casioned by a wagon haul or pack
train A case dropped several hundred
feet upon rock might explode, but
separate sticks would simply break
out of the wrapper and no explosion
follow
Powder will burn in the open air
and not explode providing the gases
generated in the adjoining powder from
the heat of combustion have room to
escape. For example: Place two boxes
of powder side by side. open one and
ignite. leave the other box closed. The
burning box will not explode, but the
heat will explode the closed box.
The utility of powder is due to its
explosive force. Under certain condi-
tions it will explode. under others it
will not. Consumers who take pains
to study the proper conditions are safe.
those who will not must suffer the
penalty for carelessness, which in the
mildest terms applicable is criminal
negligence"

Colonel Nick Treweek. the general
manager of the Lucky Boy mine. at
Custer City, Ida. yesterday received
the following telegram:
Custer City. Ida. Feb 16, 1897.
N. Treweek, Salt Lake City:
Missed hole in shaft. John Holmes
and c. o. Johnson killed William
Tuggle slightly wounded, but will re-
cover. Inform Mrs. John Holmes
through Gus Carlson, working at On
tario drain tunnel.
Will bury bodies here pending in
structions. c. T. STEVENSON.
Colonel Treweek. upon receipt of the
above telegram. Immediately commune
Gated with Park City, but as yet has
not received any reply from the Park.
John Holmes was from Park City,
and it is believed that he had a wife
living there. He was an experienced
machine drill operator, and was one of
the force of drill ment sent to the
Lucky Boy mine from Utah few
months ago when power drills We're in
troduced III the mine. 1t is also be-
lieved that c. 0. Johnson was a Park
City miner.
Colonel Treweek, when seen by a
Herald representative last night, was
feeling very badly over the sad fatal
ity, and stated that this was the first
instance in a career of 20 years in
active mining that a man had been
killed in any property over which he
had the mana cement and, he can only
account for the fatal accident in two
WAYS.
At the Lucky Bow work is being
pushed in the sinking of the main
working shaft. which is now nearly
down to the 60O-foot level. AS stated
above. machine drills are employed in
the mine, and 10 or 10 holes are drilled,
charged, and then fired together Ac-
cording to Mr.. Treweek, one of the
charges might have delayed fire until
shaft. and then exploded; or, there
when struck by the drill was dis
charged.
The accident occurred on the 18th, but
it took four days TO get the message
to Blackfoot, the nearest telegraph
office 1t is expected, however, that
letter, containing a detailed account of
the accident, will be received today
AS regards the disposition of the re-
mains, Colonel Treweek states that the
roads between Custer and Blackfoot
are almost impossible on account of
deep snow and snowslideS. but that if
il is desired that the bodies of the two
be brought to this city, it shall be done
if possible.
He feels deeply grieved over the ac-
cident, although, in fact, il was one of
those fatalities which occur even where
the greatest care is exercised.

When it comes down to gathering

THE GARFIELD LYECUM.
PATRIOTIC EXERCISES HELD AT
CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
Horace II. Smith Delivers an Address
on James A. Garfeld-Robert N.
Young Speaks of Washington
Alex Everhart on .'The True Prin-
ciples of Good Citizenship"

The evening service at the First Con-
gregationaI church consisted of a patri-
otto programme in honor of the ami
versary of Washington's birthday. Three
addresses were given by members of the
James A. Garfield Lyceum. under whose
auspices the service was held. Rev. Clar-
ence T. Brown, pastor of the church, is
the chaplain and counselor of the Lyceum,
and it was through his influence that the
young men We're given charge of the
service.
The first address was upon James A
Garfield. delivered by Horace H. Smith.
He spoke upon the virtues and excellent
Qualities of him who did so much for
his country. and whozwas so cruelty as
sassinated at the very time when he was
given the highest gift within the power
of the American people
He was followed by Robert n. Young,
whose address treated upon the character
of Washington, the father of his coun-
try" and who may well be considered
and reverenced as one of the greatest of
our patriot forefathers. 1t may not be
out of place to quote portion of Mr.
Young's estimate of Washington, whose
birthday we are today celebrating. He
said: mae
When l think of Washington as a
general and a statesman, l see him before
me as an instrument OF a higher power,
whose every action seems to have been
the result of inspiration; whose path of
life seems to have been planned out and
paved Win pearls Oh hohor by the hdilu
OF destiny.
The third and last speaker was Alex
Eberhardt, and his theme was The Three
Principles of Good CitiZenship-Inde-
pendence. Intelligence and Patriotism
HIS speech was we'll delivered and he
showed himself thorough master of his
subject.
During the programme several martial
strains were played by Prof. Radcliffe
upon the church organ
Notwithstanding the inclemency of the
weather, there was a large attendance at
the service. and all were well pleased
with the manner in which the service
Wcs conducted and the excellent way in
which the speakers acquitted themselves.

HOW TO HANDLE EXPLOSIVES.

Constant care in preparing charge

Next to warming powder with quick,
dry heat, picking out a shot" is the
cause of the most fatal accidents. If
hole misses do not be in a hurry to
return. especially if the hole was
tamped close. More accidents are
caused from supposed missed holes
than from actual. small, sharp rock

that the fire may not pass that point
for hours. This is often mistaken for
missed hole. The hole is picked out,
