ROTHCHILDS' NINE.
Are Going to Make the "Tom Boy
Pay Greater Profits

Denver, Feb. 6.-The Tom Boy having
passed into the control of the London
Exploration company, and mining quid
nuncs having had an opportunity of
sleeping off the effects of the intense
strain upon them while the deal was
pending, a great deal of interest is
manifested in the future of the proper
ty. It is known that the purchasers
propose making many improvements in
the methods of operating the mine, but
of the character of these improvements
it is doubtful if the eompany's expeartS
are themselves satisfied.
Mr.. Rrantnober, who went to the mine
on Tuesday night, will make exhaustive
tests of the ores, the result of which
will crystalize in the mill which it is
proposed to build. The mill now on the
property has a capacity of 100 tons per
day, but it's location is not a good one,
as all supplies have to be hauled up hill
and the new mill will doubtless be con-
structed at a much lower level, near the
creek. This will require an extension
of the tramway system, and number
of other surface improvements involv-
ing the expenditure of a large amount
OF money.

and in the south more in the concrete;
that is the difference in his position in
the two sections. South of Mason and
DixOn's line harangues of agitators
about the rights of the negro" are
seldom heard, but his daily needs are
understood and his defects tolerated.
Personally, he is dishked at the north,

school education who even believe that
he is born white and turns dark, be-
coming white again after death. South
ernerS. on the contrary, are attached to
the negro's personality from early and
traditional association. They know
that he is affectionate, obliging and IN
resentful; but they also know that his
200 years training has resulted only in
semi and they are not sur
prised when he proves unreasoning, i'm
prOVident and immoral With all aid
from outside philanthropy, to the south
alone has belonged and still belongs the
task of assimliating this element with
her people in both a domestic and a
legislative sense. Nowhere, unless in
Africa itself, have negroes en- fnasse
such a chance for prosperity, a show
and a hearing; their blind instinct to
stay in their southern home is correct.
Commercially, their chance is small in
the north and east, where the powerful
trades unions are opposed to colored
masons, builders and mechanics. In
the south a white and a black man are
often seen working side by side in shops
and fields, and, agriculture being their
chief pursuit, the sun and rain visit i'm

white farmer Little capital is required
to raise corn and cotton, and the col
ored laborer encounters neither jeal-
ousy nor opposition except from the
lowest class of whites.

WIEN BEES PURSUE YOU.

1t is fact not generally known that
if one holds his breath, wasps, bees, and
hornets can be handled with impunity.
The skin becomes sting-proof, and
holding the insect by the feet and Civ
ing her full liberty of action you can see
her drive her weapon against the i'm
penetrable surface with a force which
lifts her body at every stroke; but let
the smallest quantity of air escape from
the lungs and the sting will penetrate
at once.
For a theory in explanation, we are led
to believe that holding the breath
partially closes the pores of the skin.

Will Build a Mill.

Last Saturday L. N. Lambert of the
firm Of Drake & Lambert, and prom
inent claim owner of State Line, says
the Iron County Record, came into Ce-
dar for the purpose of making arrange
ments for the hauling of a new mill for
State Line from the terminus to the
camp, and to let contract for the
lumber and timbers necessary in the
erection of the mill.
Interviewed by a, Record reporter, he
stated that Alfred Popkees, who had
for some time been laboring with east
ern capitalists, returned to the camp
on the 25th ult. triumphant. He had
succeeded in organizing a company of
Chicago capitalists, to be known as the
State Line Gold Mining company, of
which MI Popkees, is general business
manager, and before leaving Chicago
purchased a. mill, which is now en-
route to the camp.
The mill was purchased from the
Gates Iron Works and is a tremain or
steam stamp, with a capacity of 10 to
20 tons per day, with sufficient boiler
and engine capacity to increase the
output to so tons per q hours. Aside
from this Mr.. Popkees has secured an
interest in some of the best properties
of the district, and will rush the work
of construction with all possible speed
in order to get the mill running befonre
the first of the new year.
A contract for the furnishing of the
needed lumber has been let with the
S. u M. & L. company of this place,
and James Corlett will freight the mill
from Milford. Lambert returned to the
camp after completing his arrange
ments, quite enthusiastic over the out
look for the camp.
