Ten Dollars c Week for Eight.

In the October Ladies Home Journal, Mt- $. I Rorer tells how family of eight persons can be fed-and we'll fed at he aggregate cost of ten dollars 8 week. She presents bill-of-fare for each meal, with suggestions for changing and varying them, and details how to prepare the main dishes that enter into her economical plan ot supplying the family table. "To carry out the scheme," she says, "articles must be purchased economically, and no waste permitted. A table which is supplied for d family of elght for ten dollars week must, of necessity be plain, but it may, at the same time, not lack for va riety, or wholesomeness Sweetmeats and rich desserts must be counted only as occasional luxuries, and company dishes must be admitted altogether. Meat. the most expensive food item, quantity than is needed for single meal, and utilized French fashion. The poor and middle classes of this country must le ,rn more about the food value of the ltgumens, more about the proper prep aration of food, and last, but not least, more about the proper com bin ations of food. Avoid the buying of steaks, roasts and chops each week. It is an expensive household indeed which has no repertoire of cheaper dishes. A beef's heart or a praised calf's liver makes an excellent and econ mical change. Broiled sheep's kidneys, with little bacon, give a good breakfast at cost of ten cents. Smoth- cred beef, which may be made from the tough end of the rump steak, is appetiz- ing, and only costs half the price of an equal food value of tenderloin steak.
 ''The housekeeper should go to market early and buy only the best materials. They keep longer and go farther than the inferior ones. Perishable food should be bought in small quantities two or three times a week Groceries enough to last month should be laid in. Can ned goods and conserved sweets should be bought sparipgly Meat is always a most expensive article, and not particle of it should be allowed to go to waste"

4 k6st Mine R0updo

The story of the discovery of an old
 forgotten mine in an unfrequented To
 cality Tn the foothills of the Pinal noun,
 tains, em belllshed with romantic details such as usually accompany legends of lost mines, created d lively interest about the public resorts in Globe the past
 week. l. $ Goble, one of rhe discover CTS of the mIne, who was in town on Tuesday, very kindly gave us the true story of the find, which corroborates the account in circulation and furnishes be- sides other interesting details.
 l.. s. Goble, R Quarrels, and H. s.
 McClelland, on August 17, while pros pecting in the foothills eIght or nine
 miles south of Globe aud three and half miles to the left ot the toll road, dis. covered an old shaft, and nearby on the hill above the ruins of breastworks which had evidently been erected for defense against Indians. The evidences of great age observable in the decayed shaft, al- most filled with debris, and the crumb- ling breastworks excited the party's cur. iosity, and they stopped to investigate. The old shaft was found to have been sunk on we'll defined ledge, from which they took promising specimens of ore which tested we'll in copper and gold. Owing to the unsafe condition of the old shaft, after having removed two or three feet of the debris, they abandoned it, and having made thelr locations, they started a new incline shaft below the old works. From the surface down they had twelve to fourteen inch streak of sulphuret ore running from 15 to 56 per cent in copper, and we'll in gold, one assay giving 42$ per ton. The incline is now down fifteen feet, and the ore has widened to three feet.
 A we'll preserved skeleton with a bullet hole through the skull, or bearing other damnable evidences of foul play, IS a desirable, if not essential, exhibit of every such discovery, and as this was lacking, MT. Goble industriously set about to supply the deficiency, although in justice to our informant, he says il was n the hope of uncovering treasure more than to make so gruesome a fOd, which prompted him to explore mound of stones lodged in a crevice in the rocks near the breastworks. Alter removing about three feet of rocks and leaves Go ble struck his pick into what proved to be the eye. socket of a human skull, which caused him to momentarily shrink with horror, but sum moning up courage he proceeded with the work and soon uncovered complete skeleton of a man. Near the right hand lay a daggar eaten with rust, large chunk of quartz scanned with coarse gold, and a hand some specimen of onyx. What was the fate of the human being whose bones had been thus rudeIy disturbed? Had he been murdered by the implacable foe of the white man, the blood thirsty Apache, or had he peacefully laid down life's burdens and been tenderly com mitted to the grave by friendly hands !? There is noIe tU answer and the mystery must remain unsolved Globe Silver Belt

Mot AU Gold That Critters. "

Several enthusiastic California pros. pectors who started for Klondike have returned with much less money and much more experience than they had when they started. A Mir. Aver who has just come back from the Chilkoot Pass, tells his story of the experiences of himself and companion to the Tulare Register, from which we quote as fol- lows:
 Their trip from Tulare to Dyea was a pleasant one, but from there on it was a painful and laborious pilgrimage. Three quarters of a mile advance with their provisions was considered good day s travel. It rained every day and the trail was muddy, slippery and steep. Over this trall and back and forth through the cold rain they tramped and re framed, each man carrying 100 pounds at load, until at the end of long day the supply of about 17O0 pounds had been moved less than mile Food be comes valuable after d few days of that work Many strong men gave out and MT. Aver says it is piiiful to see the sui ferers from rheumatism and sore feet strung along the route trying to recuper- ate, some yet undaunted and with the determination to go forward, while oth- CTS pray only for strength to hobOle back to Dyea and to get forever away from the accursed country. The gold fever, in most instances, rapidly cools on that weary climb.
 There are now about 8 900 persons at Skagway and Dyea, these towns being only five miles apart, waiting for spring from there to the summit The Whites pass route has been abandoned and those at Skaguay will go over he Chil koot pass Not only is Whle's pass De set with the same tolls and dangers as the Chilkoot, but it leads through quag mires where horses sink and must be shot to end their suff-rings
 The provisions are simply corded up ,ll along the trail and about March the movement up the mountain will begin. The penalty for stealing "grub" is death. Ii the thief is not appreh tended in time to shoot him in the act he is cheerfully hung when caught later. There is plenty of lumber this side of the summit and the campers will be comparatively com fortable, but on the other side there is not a silver of wood until lakes are reached.
 Indians may be em mpIoyed to do the packing if one has money enough to pay them and they must be followed closely to prevent them running away with everything. The price for transporting supplies fifteen miles Is from forty 10 fifty cents per pound. One gentleman returning from Dlwson City told Mr. Aver that he paid for packing his things in and when he and his companion got to Lake Linderman with 2000 pounds and had tbeIr boat paid for they were short just 2100$

A GREAT FEAT.
The Cruiser VeSuviuS
Runs the Blockade.
She Was Undiscovered by
Admiral Bunce'S Fleet.
Officers OF the Cruiser Pleased With
Their Performance.

| Charleston, g. O., Feb. 13-Notw ithstand-
ing Admiral Bunce's carefully arranged plans
| for the effectual blockade of Charleston Har-
| Dor, the dynamite cruiser Vesuvius success
| fully ran the gauntlet Of the North Atlantic
| Squadron last night The blockaders were
not aware OF the feat Of the ocean PAGER until
the proarranged signal, sky-rocxet, was
fired from the bow OF the Vesuvius. Admiral
I Bunco was surprised and disappointed. He
had thought tho thing impossible and was
loathe TO believe the report, IL Is said, when
it was conveyed 10 him. How the blockade
was run is priced as secret on board the
Vesuvius The officers are all boasting of the
feat and are as pleased over IL as the blockad-
ers are hagrined. The passage through the fleet
was made as easily safely and expediuously as
most experienced blockade runners could have
made. The trip of the Vesuvius showed her
officers 10 be thorough naval tacticians. That
the Vesuvius got the better of Admiral
Bunce's carefully laid and directed plans is
no reflection upon their efficiency. The We
suyius trip simply showed that there are
American commanders who are sufficiently
skilled in the science OF naval tactics 10 elude

before an American port.
The Vesuvius arrived off Charleston yester-
day from League Island navy yard near
Philadelphia. She remained at a great dis
tance outside until after night-fall, when she
extinguished her lights and began N anouvres

their kindly offices and little before o'clock
she dropped her anchor. The Vesuvius is
said to have taken the regular ship chanuel by
the use Of which she was forced 10 pass be.
tween the blockading fleet. Strange 10 say
shs was not discovered by the searchlights
which played over the channel continually
during the evening.
The dispatch boat, Dolphin. which is said to
have also given the feet the Slip a few nights
ago, is expected from Jacksonville at any
time The Cushing Ericsson and torpedo
boat No. o. are also on their way to reinforce
the blockade runners.
The pilots and old blockade runners are
greatly excited over the manocuverings of the
squadron. They are anxious to be given OPP
portunity to take a runner out The fayorite

which led under the guns OF fort Moultrie. 1t
