A bold and seemingly foolhardy
scheme is that of George T. Glover of
Chicago, a native of Vermont. He plans
to build a snow railrod to the Klordike.
Mr. Glover is so confident of its success
that he is ready and even anxious to
establish line of snow teams between
Fort Wrangel and Dawson City as soon
a the government authorities at Wash
ington give their sanction and show a dis
position to aid the work. Mr. Glover
says he can traverse the Arctic country
to Dawson City, a distance of 500 miles.
in less than a week after that with a
train of from eight to ten cars of SUP
plies. b. p. Weare and Michael Cudahy
of Chicago have been to Washington and
had several conferences with Secretary
Alger and it was practically agreed that
the government would cooperate with
the North American Trading and Trans
portation company in sending supplies
to the klondke miners should the need
become imperative. Not more than
S250000 would be necessary to equip a
dozen trains and put them in operation,
allowing a good sum to be expended
in building permanent roadway
through parts of the toughest land.

to have gone III order to wash at the
brook, which is held between dams.
A pleasing female figure, we'll poised,
is shown wringing out linen which
she has just washed, and the water
supply of the fountain comes from the
supposed piece of linen. The water

large shell, and through indentures
falls to the larger basin beneath.
The sculptor, Ludwig Brunow, made
his reputation principally in quite
different sphere. His first beginnings
were wood carvings and only compar-
atively late he began to work in stone
and bronze. In 1873 he made his first
large monument, that of Moltke in
Parchim, and since then he has COM
pleted a number of important works,
almost all of them princes or former
mOnarchs of Prussia and other do
mains. The fountain, which has just
found a permanent place, had received
a gold medal at the art exposition in
Berlin.

THE BENTON A BONANZA.
III M. Force, Manager and BOndsmHn
of a Famous sOuth Santa Fe County
GOid Mine, is Enthusiastic.

Mr.. R. M. Force, business manager OF
the always bright and readable Durango
Morning Democrat, who is actively oper.
Grating the Benton gold mine in south
Santa Fe county under working bond
came in from the south last night and
registered at the Palace hotel. He left
for Dorango over the D. & R. G. railroad
this morning to spend the holidays with
his family.
New MEXICAN before leaving for the
north, and it must be admitted that the
comfortable regalis of an honest and
justly confident miner becomes his style
of masculine beauty to perfection.
AS he hurriedly and enthusiastically
talked to New MEXICAN scribe concern
ing the Benton mine and the moral GER
tainty of soon realizing rich golden re-
turns therefrom, his dark eyes fairly
flashed and sparkled and his energetic
rhetoric was as softly, delicately and
beautifully tinted as the roses that bloom
in the oval cheeks of pretty native
maiden.
Under the experienced management of
A. O. Wheeler, superintendent, and j. NJ.
Smith, foreman, both experts in deep
mining, he reports that the work of
clearing out, enlarging and timbering the
two shafts on the Benton mine, one 1858
and the other 260 feet deep, is progress
sing rapidly. The shafts are about 70
feet apart on the same vein and are con-
nected by drift at the 260-foot level.
One will be used as an orewsy and the
other as manway. He expects to have
his ore shaft timbered by the first day of
the new year, and the work of timbering
the other will be completed soon there
after.
In the stope connected with the ore
shaft he has discovered four or five car
loads of high grade gold ore, which will
probably be sent to the Cerrillos smelter
before long. He has also made the graft
flying discovery that the Benton boys,
who took fortune out of the mine
about - years ago, stored in one OF the
slopes fully 100 tons of what was then
called low grade ore, because of high trans
portation and treatment charges, but
which is said to have millrun about $50
in the yellow stuff and will now net at
least $35 per ton. This ore, if it runs as
well as reported, will also be taken out
before long ana hauled to the Cerrillos
smelter.
So the holiday season naturally finds
Mr.. Force in a most amiable frame of
mind.
