In letter to the New York World
Bishop Potter says, regarding the no
BILE benefactions of 1897, that up to the
end of October sl1, 655, 900 were given
by Americans to educational institu-
tions, 81, 5z9, 600 to charitable objects
and 1896, 600 to missions, making a
total of something more than 1924, 000,-
600. The grand total of Protestant
gifts to educational and benevolent
purposes for the whole year will, the
Bishop thinks, amount to $29, 600, 600.
Surely, the age ia which we live is not
wholly given over to selishness. =

A. DAHL EN-

P. H. Kray of Cold Spring, spent
Monday in ST. Cloud, where he was
placing a case before one of unusual
interest. Some time ago Messrs. Foley
Bros. sold their milling plant at that
place to syndicate of farmers, who
bought the property for the express
purpose of pulling out the dam, by
OF pulling out the dam, by which the
mill was operated. thus given them a
large acreage of valuable meadow
land thathad been inundated for many
years, caused by the baek-water from
the dam.
1t was the intention of the pur-
chasers of the plant to continue TO
operate it, but by steam. instead of
water power. The land which had be-
worthless for farming purposes was
thought to be worth more to the syndi-
cate than to water power. Now P. Fl.
Kray comes forward and willendeavor
to take such steps as will compel the
mill owners to leave the dam where it
is. He is interested in park near Cold
Springs, and line ofboats and asteam
err, and claims that he will be greatly
damaged in case the dam is removed,
as theriver would not, inthat event, be
navigable. He asserts that the dam
was placed where it is by and through
an act of Legislature, and that the pre-
sent owners of the mill and dam have
no legal right to remove it.

Der Of the best OF the gold mines were
abandoned years ago on account of
losing the vein at a certain depth.
1t was then thought that gold did not
extend very deep into the earth, and
when the miners had gone down 800
or 800 feet and lost the vein, it was be-
lieved that the end Of the gold had
come and. that the vein had petered
out. 1t is found, however, that by go
ing down little further the vein may
may be often rediscovered and some
times that it will be richer than ever.
This was the case with the famous
Gwinn mine. This mine was very
rich. 1t had yielded fortunes, but the
vein was thought to have played out.
A new company took hold of it not
long ago. They sunk the shaft a few
feet further and another big fortune
was opened to view. This is also the
case with the Kennedy mine and
others
Another theory that has been ex-
ploded," continued Mr.. Preston, els
that gold can only be found in one or
gold in everything. 1t occurs in sand
stone, shale, slate and clay. 1t is
often found in gravel, and you have
seen the statements recently pub
lished about the vast amount of the
yellow metal which is in solution in the
waters OF the sea. There is man In
Australia who has been experimenting
upon this for the last five years. L
believe he estimates that there is abort
a grain of gold in a ton of water, Or
between 100 and 200 tons Of gold in
cubic mile. One of his estimates is
that If the gold could be gotten out CT
the ocean we would have more than
100000 100000 tons of gold. This is little
good to the world, as no means has yet
been discovered of getting the gold out.
The new processes, however, are stead
lily increasing the possible supply from
the regular sources. There is q vast

TIE WORLDS GOLD In 1897,
Chat With the Director of the Gold Regions
of the World

Copyrighted, 1897. by Frank G.. Carpenter.)
WASHINGTON, July S.-The gold
mining convention at Denver this
week will give the public some idea of
the enormous amount of the yellow
metal which Is now being dragged
from the mountains of the West. The
Increase is going on steadily. There
was never anything like 1t before, and
the prospects are that it will be even
greater In the future. We are having
fooddof gold. not only from the
United States, but from all other gold
regions L get this information from
the director Of the mint, and it is based
upon his reports which come in regu-
larry from all parts of the world. The
director of the mint has confidential
relations with the big smelling estab-
nshments and reduction works of the
United States, by which they send him
statements as to the amounts of gold
and silver which they receive. They
report whence the metals come and
where they go. He gets also reports
from the officers of the minis in diff
ferent parts Of the United States, and
his mail brings him reports monthly
from the gold regions of Africa, Aus
tralia, Russia South America and else
where. The reports given by the smelt-
ing establishments are of gold actually
melted up and sent into circulation.
They are not the rosy estimates Of the
prospectors or mine owners, but are
made UP of figures as reliable as any
you will find in the treasury depart
ment. 1t is through such reports that
the director of the mint knows
from month to month just how
the stream of the worlds
gold is rising or falling. Sit

of money can never be expended on

SpOoner, but 1 mean to be sure and

insuring him against the kicks and
cuffs accorded to the ordinary friend

to draw the will in such a way that
Rover will receive the benefit of the
income of the property until his death.

And so the will was made out in

It IS almost pity that Mr.. Howells'
reputation is of such a character that
he has nothing to gain by THE Land

of a novel that would make a lesser

of a novel that takes one back to Mr..
Howells' own earlier period when his
sociological preaching was none the
less forceful because it was less evil
dent than that of later years, which
has found small favor with his adj
mirers; so perhaps after all its i'm

not to be discounted because of his at
