semicircle over the top. This tree was
planted by the secretary in every con-

his hat. and finally in gilt on the doors of

secretary free of charge, with two horses

to plant trees was not on the carriage
door, but the trees were, and they are
there yet. When James Wilson of Iowa
succeeded j. Sterling Morton of Nebras-
ka as secretary of agriculture he fell
heir to the rickety coupe, the horses and
the negro driver, along with the salary,
the seeds and the other perquisites of the
high office. Mr.. Wilson is a pretty good
man, but not strong on style. He has no
coat of arms of his own, and as tree to

WASHINGTON, July 25.-An echo Of
the coronation ceremony which led to
80 much correspondence on such sub
jects as diplomatic uniforms, court pro-
cedure and matters of precedence at
official ceremonies is found in an opinion
just rendered by the attorney general
touching the respective rights of volun-
teer and regular army and navy officers
to wear the uniform Of the highest rank
they attained during the rebellion.
Col. John F. McCook, who represented
the United States army, and Captain
G. H. Wadleigh, the representative OF
the United States navy at the corona
ton, had some difficulty over the ques-
ton of precedence growing out of the
fact that McCook claimed the lead by
virtue of his high volunteer rank as
shown by his uniform. Minister Breck-
inridge sustained the army officer and
the state department was Obliged to call
upon the war and navy department for
their construction of the statute grant
ing officers the right to bear the rank
and wear the uniform of their highest
volunteer rank. The direct issue was
presented in a recent application of
James T. Farrell, brevet major Of
United States volunteers and late cap
tain in the Fifth New York artillery. The
two departments were unable to agree
upon the matter and 1t was referred to
the attorney general. The latter decided
that only ex-officers may wear such uni
forms and bear such rank. In other
| words, no officer at present on the army
rolls can wear the uniform of the volun-
teer rank, but persons honorably mus
tered out of the volunteer service and
who have no army connection now may
wear it on occasions Of ceremony
| This is in line with the former con-
struction given to the law by the war
department, but it appeared that the
practice was about to be reversed, which
would have been a severe blow to many
thousands of volunteer officers.

MINES AND MINERS
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
California and Alaska

Some people fear that the gold fever
regarding the Clondyke fields in Alaska
will be an injury to California by draw
ing attention away from the gold mines
Of this state, says C. G. Yale Of the San
Francisco Examiner, and that while
such riches may be obtained in so short
time in Alaska investors will not care
for the slower though surer mining here.
Naturally there is great excitement at
present owing to the almost fabulous
sums brought down by few individuals.
But thus far the entire yield Of the
Yukon river districts for this season is
no larger than that of the placer fields
of this state, and not one-third Of the
total gold product of California for a
year. If the various sums brought to
this city throughout the year by Cali
fornia miners were to be published
people here would be surprised. The
gold from the Clondyke is from aurifer-
Gus gravel entirely and is expected to
amount to eight millions this season.
The six principal gravel mining counties
of California last year yielded upwards
Of $4,000 coo, and there was over 1,000,-
900 more from counties which yield gold
IIOlli pOtH queti " anu SHAWN w NeAAi
fornia can still make very good show
ing. One gravel mine in this state, the
writer his in mind, turned out last sea-
son upwards of $24O,O0O which is higher
than the yield of any single Clondyke
claim yet reported. OF course the Clon-
dyke gold is easier and cheaper to get
at than the gold is here in drift or hy-
draulic mines, but the very rich mines
are not so surprisingly numerous. Nat
urally many will be disappointed in the
| Alaska fields, though a few will make
fortunes. But it is very probable that In
the end this new gold fever will renew
attention in the direction of gold mining
and this state will benefit by it. People
who have no opportunity to go to, or in
vest in, Alaska, will begin to think o.
gold mining nearer home. The other in
terests of the state will get direct bene-
fit from the large amount of supple:
to be furnished. An entirely new regior
is being populated and they must draw
much of their supplies from here. Wher
