HOMESTAKE BREAKS RECORD
Nearly Two Hundred Thousand Dol.
lars in Half q Month,

The Homestake Mining Company on the
second inst. finished the largest clean up
Of gold in its history for a like period of
time, viz, fifteen days. Eight large bricks
of bullion were refined and shipped to the
subtreasury at New York. They were
valued at $4,000, about S60,OO0 more than
the value Of any previous semi monthly
clean up. This increase was occasioned
by the enlarged capacity of the company
mills, while it is also understood that the
ore is improving in grade. At this rate
the output for the present month will be
$3.50, 900, or s4,560,0o0 year. 1t has been
estimated that the annual product will be
| at least 81 900 in excess of any previous
year.

Novel Exhibit for Omaha Exposition

Novel Exhibit for Omaha Exposition
One of the attractions at the Trans Mis-
sissippi Exposition will be miniature re-
production of gold mine. The origina-
tor of the scheme is Col. Richard Lee of
Rapid City, who has made a fortune at
mining. He is an old soldier and plans to
give certain per cent. of the proceeds de-
rived from the entrance fees to the mine to
the establishment of a soldiers home.
The mine is to be in the shape of noun
tain covered with stones and rocks from
the Black Hills, and will cover nearly an
acre of ground. A drift will extend into
the mountain side 100 feet, al the end of
which there will be a shaft down into the
ground with drifts extending in different
directions at the bottom. The plan, if
carried out, will be expensive, but profit
able in the end, and will be an attractive
feature at the fair.

people such as this, and yet, so far as
my knowledge goes, he is the best
reader in New York. That is William
Winter, the poet and dramatic critic.
He reads his own poems admirably.
1t Is worth going a long way to hear
William Winter read one of his own
poems. Nothing have I heard in New
York from any one of the professionals
that is at all to be compared with him;
and he does it with very little voice;
you have to get near him to hear him;
but, when you do get near, the more
you know about the art of reading the
more you enjoy him.
Junius S. Morgan of New York has
presented to the library of Princeton
University his collection Of early edi-
tions of Virgil, in oonMnemoration of
the institutions sesquicentennial. The
collection, which includes 312 numbers,
is surpassed only by two or three
others, if at all. 1t includes the very
rare first edition (Scoeynheim & Pan
nartz, Rome, 1860 of which only six
copies are known, and of which Des-
champs says that there has not been
copy offered at auction since that of
La Valliere, in 1888. The British Mu-
scum has no copy. and the copy of the
National Library at Paris is defective.
The collection includes also copy on
vellum of tine first dated edition Q41D,
which is about half as rare as the other
but is nevertheless rarer than the IA

The American correspondent of the
London Academy" thinks there is
total lack of judicial temper and sense
of proportion in American critics, that
there is "a tacit league of appreciation"
among certain authors who are good
fellows" and have secured "a great
publishers imprint and that there
are no bounds to the tenderness and
good will with which they handle each
other. AS an instance in point, the
teXtravagant praise heaped upon II.
G. Bunner since his death a few months
ago is cited.
Mrs. Meynefl of London says of lit
erary qualifications: The one thing
noedful is capacity. All the rest is
mere matter Of course. There is always
plenty of competition, but in this re-
Spect our profession is like any other,
and as to the difficulties people talk
about, l believe they are mostly from
within rather than from without" She
lays emphasis on the Importance of
physical strength and advises authors
to avoid the shopping shoulders by
writing, as she does, sitting in a low
chair at the writing table.
