NO POETRY IN MINING.
Success Can Only Be Attained by
 Hard Work,

The Denver Republican prints the following editorial on the mining situs- ton in Coloradoi
 Sometimes one feeis discouraged at the lack of interest in mining, not withstanding the many discoveries of good mineral that have been made and numerous indications that the business, when engaged in properly, Is profita- able For this there seems to be no remedy except to address oneself with all the more energy to the actual work of mining. Mining vindicates itself by success, and it must be pursued very earnestly and energetically in order that success may be gained.
 This ia in substance the advice given by Mir. Irving Howbert after his re- turn from Europe @ few days ago. He told his friends in Colorado Springs that the thing for them to do was to push the development of mines and let the stock market take care of itself He could have given no better advice, and people in ali parts of Colorado who may be engaged in mining will do we'll to follow it.
 Doubtless it is fascinating to make a brilliant discovery of rich ore near the surface and see ones bank account growing rapidly from the proceeds of sales of mineral obtained with little effort. But these are the exceptions in mining. The rule IS that success is achieved only by hard work, patiently pursued, it may be, for many years.
 There are many mining districts in this state where doubtless work would be rewarded by discoveries of protita- bie bodies of ore. But these ore bodies are not to be found by scratch ing the surface. Money and labor must be expended to reach them, and 1t will be we'll if Colorado turns its at tention to this phase of mining. It is not beautiful or poetic. It is as prosy and practical az farming, But it is the ouly path to success.

ers themselves often appreciate this full

grow TO depend 90 much upon their ac-
quired faculties as to be afraid of

An illustration Of this is given by a
womaA in Brooklyn who never has
learned 10 read or write. IN no way
could one discover this except hy her
own admission or by putting her TO q
direct test, for she is one Of the best od.

SAINT with languages, art, literature and
all the current topics Of the day. She is
rich, too ard could afford all the serv-
ices of he best teachers if she but chose

When this woman was child, her
parents lived far from schools, so she
had no chance then to learn to read or
write As mere child she began to
earn her own living. and again the
chance for schooling slipped away. Then
she married and the cares Of family
took up her time. BY the time the ba-
bics were of her hands, her husband
had grown rich, and then she began her
real education, and now, as q widow,
she continues it. Her companions read
to her and talk with her about all the
topics which interest her. Years Of such
work have stored her mind with a rich

WORK ON The CHRISTIANA.
A MOVEMENT ADVOCATING AN

STARTED.

A MOVEMENT ADVOCATING AN
EIGHTEEN-FOOTN DEPTH HAS
STARTED.
A movement has been started to have
the bill for the dredging of the Christi
ana river so amended that it will pro-
vide for depth of eighteen feet at low
water instead of twenty-one feet There
are several reasons given by those who
are making this suggestion, for the
change they advocate, but the reasons
do not meet with the full approval Of
some of the people along the river who
are most interested.
The principal reason advanced is that
because Of the greater depth and the
more work necessary, more money will
be required, and it is not available. An
other is that the greater depth might
effect the stability of the river banks
and wharves.
The advocates of the eighteen-fOOt
depth hold that this is amply sufficient
for the present needs, as the flow of the
tide is six feet giving a depth Of twen-
ty-fOur feet at high water.
Those who oppose the reduction. how
ever, state that the work that should
be done on the Christiana is not only
for the present, but for the future also
and that the greater depth may be alb
solutely necessary to the big ship
building firms.
Should the bids opened by General
Smith ofMarch II be accepted, the shoals
at Third street bridge, and thence tC
! Market street will be dredged away
