Several DeLamar miners have been
prospecting the lower portion Of Jacobs
Gulch for some days and have found
gravel on its banks sufficiently rich to
warrant them in locating more than a
mile of its length and they are now at
work constructing a ditch from further
above which will give them a head of
water to hydraulick the ground next
spring.

world. The work ended with the Ma
hogany, south of which is deep gulch,
fianked on the south side by Mahogany
Flat. This fiat was probably formed
by slide from a summit further
south and to prospect for continue
ton of the great veins through the
great mass of debris took so much
nerve that 1t was never undertaken
until the present summer, when some
DeLamar men, among them Thomas
Davey and R. S. Halves, carefully calcu-
lating the course of the veins, located
claims on the fiat, began sinking a
shaft, which has now reached a depth
of so feet. Sixty feet of this depth
was through slide matter until granite
was reached, then twenty feet more
was sunk to get solid ground through
which to drift for vein. Drifting had
only fairly been begun when word
came down from there this week that
quartz had been found. 1t is too early
yet to tell what the vein will prove, but
as it is doubtless a continuation of one
of the great veins showing up further
north, the probability of Mahogany
Flat becoming a producer is more than
ilattering. Work will now be pushed
on the property with renewed energy.

WHY THEY QUARRELED.
What Came of Reading the Account
of a Divorce

They had been married two months
and still their honeymoon vas in
it's zenith. "Dovey" and ''lovey" and
''honey" and "Bunnie" flew thick and
fast between them, and the gush of
Niagara was a thimbleful of water com
pared with the torrent of their loYe.
While in this blissfu condition the
husband read aloud to the wife one
morning the details of a divorce suit
that has attracted widespread atten-
ton here and throughout the state
They knew the principals in the case
and were, to say the least, rather
shocked at the outcome of a marriage
that seemed at best as suspicious as
their own.

comment, while my little darling and
love each other too dearly to ever think

LOBSTERS FROM THE PACIFIC.
becoming Common in Kansas city
and Are Preferred There

The Kansas City epicures, particular
ly those who incline to the succulent
shell fish, are reveling in the recent
Introduction of species of lobster new
to this part of the country. 1t is known
as the bermuda lobster, and is very
unlike the Atlantic lobster, although of
the same faInily. The advent of this
new species is very timely, as the At
lantic lobster is growing scarcer and
OF smaller size and poorer quality with
each succeeding season.
The Bermuda lobster is gathered on
the southern coast of California, and is
shipped here from San Diego, Cal, at a
cost of five cents pound less than the
Atlantic lobster. In general appearance
the Pacific coast lobster, which gets its
name because it originated in the Ber-
muda islands, where it is now nearly
extinct, resembles the ordinary Allan
tie species, but a careful examination
brings out many little features that are
not found in the Atlantic lobster. The
Bermudas are considerably larger as a
rule than the others. and the boiled
ones have a richer red color. The Ber-
muda has no "shear-claw," which is a
distinguishing feature of his Atlantic
brother, but he has row of legs or
creepers on either side of his body that
more than make up for the big shear
claw" of the Atlantic lobster. and he
is all meat. The tail part is of the same
general character as is that of the
Atlantic species, but the flesh is more
solid and firmer and, if anything, the
flavor is better than that of the AT
lantic species.
The Bermuda Holsters have several
other points that make them differ
from those caught on the Atlantic
coasts. They have two long tentacles
or feelers that protrude in front of the
head a foot or more, and on the back
and top of the tail there are horny eX-
crescences that are not found on the
Atlantic lobster.
The Bermudas were introduced here
only recently said Il dealer recently,
"but they have become quite favorite,
and are preferred to the Atlantic lob
sters. They are about % per cent.
cheaper than those shipped from the
Atlantic fishing beds. Another point
in their favor is the extra amount of
meat they contain, the waste being
much less than in the eastern Holsters,
ard the coral meat in the legs is of a
much finer flavor and the shell covering
much easier broken than is the shear
claw of the Atlantic lobster For This
reason, those who are fond of the lob
ster, either plain or for salad, call for
the Bermudas. They are decidedly
more plentiful than the Atlantic
lcbsters, and we have no trouble in
getting a liberal supply at all seasons
OF the year, excepting possibly in the
months of October and November,
which are the stormy months on the
California coast. Their rapid rise in
public favor is shown from the fact
that our weekly shipments have in
creased from 80 to $50 pounds within
a couple of months. They range in
weight from one to eight pounds, and
are much more easily dressed than are
the Atlantic species. City

DRUNKE NNESS IN HOLY LAND
Curse of the Western saloon Being
Felt on Sacred Ground.


Not content with the desolations of
the drink traffic at home, we seem
bound to carry the unmitigated curse
into every corner of the globe. There
is something ineXpressibly revolving III
the thought of drunkenness in the Holy
Land. Yet Palestine is fast becoming
a land of drunkenness. VIII Jerusalem
become the city of saloons?
We do not often associate the Holy
Land with public houses, but it seems
that the drink curse is increasing in
Palestine. In Jerusalem there is q
brewery, so we are informed by a cor
respondent, which turns out 1900 gal
Ions of beer annually, and in Nazareth
there are SO licensed places. To be sure,
these are mostly for he accommodation
of tourists and visitors, but that fact
forms a grotesque commentary on the
plea of those who Justify their drinking
on the ground of the example set in
Judea by the founder of Christianity.
Instead of getting our drinking Gus
toms from the east, it seems that we are
taking them there. National Tenn

the young wife had a rude shock Her
spouse came home drunk. 1t was the
first time she had seen him under the in
Auence of liquor, and, in fact, twas the
first announcement she had that he
drank. Her presence of mind came to
her, and she was quick to act. Pulling
her husband from under the table where
he had fallen, she shook him in no gen
tile manner to wake him.

long here" she said. Il don't know you.
