The high license system of Utah
prevents the opening of saloons in
small places or where ready cash is
scarce, and all sorts of stuff and de-
coctions are resorted to by it's
thirsty citizens to develop Il hilar-
ious feeling. At State Line COM
position of J0maca ginger, alco-
hol and water is termed "ginger
brandy" and is said to be in general
use and to be indirectly responsible
for the killing of Billy Morgan at
that place last week. 1t is said also
that further trouble there may yet
result. Difficulties over claim
boundaries are not infrequent, and
one canyon of the camp appears to
be against the other and boisterous
talk is not unfrequently indulged in.
The following cable dispatch from

Tuscarora has some rich gold

Creek News states that last Sunday
Chas. Hyer gave the boys an exhi-
bition of what Tuscarora quartz will
do when put into mortar and
pounded up. He had about two
ounces of rock and obtained string
of colors that would give a man the
yellow fever. He has shipped car
load lots that netted $500 a ton.
The ledge is from three inches to
three feet. Like many good mine
his claim is now tied up with litiga-

The Springfield Republican makes
a little comparison which may be
added to the list of examples of in
dustry now being compiled for the
Queens jubilee. 1t says: "In their
hunt for illustrations to show the
wonderful progress of the British
Empire under the Queen S reign, the
English say that the circulation of
Bibles has enormously increased.
Yet that cannot compare. with the
increase in the consumption of beer,

Certain members of the Clover club
Of Philadelphia had decided that
they would like to have him as the
guest of honor at one of their ban

Clure, who is president of the club
and editor of the Philadelphia
Times, heard of the plan, he was
horrilied, and administered the
Knockout blow with the words: 81

Queen Victoria in the jubilee pro-
cession will sit in a rocking chair
specially constructed so that she can
bow automatically to the populace
enroute. The spectacle of the aged
and dignifed queen of the most ad-
yanced nation in Europe kept mid
nodding like a Chinese mandarin by
machinery will, indeed, be inspir-
ng.--New York Press.
One New England paper declares
that craving for pie is a perverted
taste which is sapping the health of
the American people and making
them a race of dyspeptics, while
another New England paper says
any man who does not relish pie is a
degenerate; so there you have an
other controversy to disturb the
country.
1t is said that at the present time
there are either building or complet-
ing for the British navy fourteen
new battleships, eight frst-class and
nine seeond-class cruisers, two
sloops, four gunboats, ifty-two tor
pedo-boat destroyers and eight light
draught steamers for special service.
