CANADA WILL BLEED rHE MINERS

OTTAWA, Ont. July 26.-The Government will
take a now step in the Canadian Yukon mining
country. There will DO q very high royalty i'm
posed on all the precious metal that 10 taken
out. This course, which, although not yet ar
ranged in detail, Is likely to keep miners from
skimming the cream Of the rich deposits
without tho country's reaping any profit.
A high authority in Government circles
discussed the subject to-day and gave ex-
preston to the view that the Dominion must
reap some gain out Of tho placer gold fields
where miners have been making their thou
sands Of dollars In a few days. Tho property
belongs to the Canadian public. and 1t 10 de-
olared that no good reason exists why the de-
posits should DO exhausted at onco. A policy
on this line. Il 10 contended, has allowed tho
immense forest growth of Canada to slip through
Canadian hands with little beneat to Canadians,
while tho timber that has in many instances
been thrown away was of q value far beyond
that Of gold mines.
There has been much talk Of keeping the gold
deposits In the Canadian Youkon for Canadians.
The matter has boon pretty fully canvassed,
with the result that 1t does not appear practical
BILE. The lave could scarcely DO enforced. and It
would DO a challenge In the face of the world to
leave Canadians to themselves, such as would
not moet with popular approval. The only
other course Is for tho Dominion to make az
much as she can out Of the gold In tho way re-
ferred to by making . man pay $50 royalty per
day whom he Is making several times that sum.

PERU'S GOLD BONANZA.
A Black Quartz That Ia the Richest Califor
mans Have Ever Soon.

SAN FRANCISCO. July 25.-Letters Just re.
ceived by the friends in Los Angeles OF Wallace
h Hardison. head Of the big mining company in
the new Peruvian bonanza district, say that he
will return to California within two months.
Hardison organized a $4,000. 900 syndicate in
New York. and last summer left here for Peru
with Mr.. J. X. Cries OF Nordhof, Cal. He took
mining machinery enough for the equipment Of
a large mill for the reduction OF ores.
The country where tho mines are situated ia
SO rough that all the machinery had to be
packed by Indian carriers, thu trails being too
unsafe even Tor mules. Mr.. Cries found the
journey SO difficult that he turned back before
the mines were, reached and returned home. He
brought with him samples of ore from Hardi.
The ore is n black quartz, which carries a phe-
nomenal proportion of gold. HRrdison was ac-
companied also by 100 American miners.

that he was the child of our Nancy's

well. until. six months ago, his
mother died. Seven weeks later his
father took another helpmeet, who
seems to have proved anything but a
tender parent TO Barb. 'She Jest

phasis. Wasn't she master hand

pisanpointment in Love.

Arthur has been for some months
paying the most marked attention to
a most charming and attractive young
woman. She has been his almost con-
slant companion, and they have grown
very fond of each other. But it SO
happens that the lady in the case Is
engaged to a man whom she respects
and has learned to look upon with a
great deal of favor. Arthur has but
just learned of the existence OF this
person, and feels very badly treated
and somewhat bitter over the situa-
ton. He feels sure that the lady would
be the gamer by giving up the other
man and taking him for better or
worse. But she will not. and that is
the end of it. Arthur wants the ed
itor's opinion on the matter. and asks
if he has not good cause for complaint.
Answer: The question of marrying for
love is to be answered in but one way.
There is no other ground for marriage
but a genuine affection. If Arthur can
win the young woman's heart ana
head, her hand will not be so difficult
to secure. But by all means, Arthur.

is but poor conquest. AS to the ques-
ton of the right Of any individual to
conceal an engagement, that is a mere
matter of fancy. One need not pro-
claim it, neither should it be kept a
secret if there is likely to be any in

How his mother ever came to hear
of such name always perplexed us.
OF coarse, having heard of it, we did
not wonder at the selection: her race

One gray November afternoon. Lois

There. on the upper step, stood the

as blackness can be compared with

and pants that suggested the rags

With shoes like the mouth of a fish: "

curiosity had attracted to the open

name was Smith, though We had
scarcely had occasion to recall that
fact in the sixteen years she had been
in our service. On this suggestion l

SELLS MICE FOR A LIVING.
French Woman Whose Clients include
Some Great Physicians.


Some Great Physicians.
Verify one-half of the world does not
know how the other half lives Equal
ly true is it that never before were
there so many curious ways of making
living as there are at present, says
the New York Herald. There have
been physicians in Paris for several
centuries, but not until quite recently
did any of them think it necessary to
make a contract by the terms of which
they are to receive certain number
of mice during the current year The
general public was rather surprised
when it heard of this contract, for the
reason that the physicians, who act in
this matter as committee of the fac
ulty Of medicine, agree to pay good
price for the mice. whereas there are
many persons in Paris who would be
only too glad to make the doctors a
present of these ravenOus animals.
The physicians. however, know what
they are about. They want mice, but
they don't want ordinary. everyday
mice. Only cultured. we'll fed. dainty
mice will suit them, and they have
given the contract to " ne Alexandra.

Heavy En- brOidery.

Awkward Needlewoman asks what
she can do to make her embroidery
look well. 1t will draw and quicker.
She has tried all sorts of ways with
out avail. Answer: The trouble is
that you make your first threads too
tight. Begin with great deal of care
and do not pull or draw the work.
Perfect accuracy is learned only after
long practice. Indeed, it appears to be
impossible for some workers to finish
a piece Of work without puckering it
all out of shape. Fine embroidery is
best done over hoop. which may be
had of any dealer in fancy goods Care
must be taken in putting the material
in the hoop th@ it is not too much

broidery is improved by being pressed
with a moderately warm iron.
