PROF MUSK, OF the, university Of
Berlin, famous for his discoveries in
the physiology Of the brain, says that
it is a great mistakeAo suppose that
gymnastic exercises sandwiched in be-
tween the hours rest the pupils. Or
the contrary, he says, they still more
fatigue the brain, which ought to have
absolute rest. IL both studies and
gymnastics are to be INDUCED in on
the same day, he says, they should DO
separated by intervals OF rest.

FREE TRADE CUTS TWO WAYS.

time TO stop their endless quibbling

Maj. Mckinley was speaking for the

them. The people know what Mr.. Cleve-
land and his secretary of the treasury
cannot conceal. hard as they may try
and much as they would like TO do so.
that under the Wilson-Gorman law the
disaster brought upon the people by
the destruction of their own industries
has been such that they have not been
able to buy even Of foreign products
as much as they did when they had
plenty and prosperity under a protect

American policy Of free trade into

A VALUABLE MINE.

Frank Wood left at THE BELT office yesterday samples of galena ore from the Eureka mine, which is owned by
 Mrs. c. R. Fiske and P. 0. Sullivan. The samples carry probably 75 or 80 per cent of lead and considerable sil. yer. The Eureka was formerly known as the Irene, and years ago was con- eidered the finest lead and silver prop- osition in the district, but owing to the low prices of 10th metals the property has not been worked. Now, however, that lead is in demand at a higher figure than for several years, the Eureka and the adjoining claim, the Alice, offer to the investor with sufficient capital to operate them, a proposition that for profit it would be hard to duplicate in Globe district.
 Excepting the big copper properties the Eureka is the best opened mine in the district. The shaft is 300 feet deep, in ore all the way. There is also tunnel 380 feet in length, tap ping the shaft at depth of 196 feet; also other openings which show up the ledge to advantage. In ths cross- cut on the tunnel level, the ledge is SO feet between walls. Samples taken across the ledge for 40 feet in width assayed 15 ounces in silver, and there are stratas running very high in sill vsr, assays of 160 ounces having been obtained. An important considers tion in the economical opening of the mine is the safe character of the ground which requires little or no timbering. tunnel could be run 500 feet in length, below the present tun- nel which would strike the ledge at a depth of 800 feet. The mine is well situated for developments and a wagon can be driven to within 30 yards of the tunnel opening

THE CHRISTMAS TREE.

The entertainment given at the M, E. church last Friday evening was the holiday event of chief interest and met fully the expectations of those fortunate enough to attend. On the platform erected about the pulpit were two large trees, resplendent in tinsel ornaments and bearing generous gifts, one tree for the exclusive benefit oi the children and the other for the use of all who deslred to place thereon presents for their friends.
 The programme of recitations and songs by the children was pleasing feature of the entertainment, the little ones acquitting themselves admirably, and refecting credit upon their elders who had trained them with SO much care. The entertainment concluded with the distribution of presents. No child was forgotten and it was pleas ant sight to witness their delight. Many hearts were made happy who otherwise would not have realized the meaning of a merry Christmas.

4 PROMISING CLAIM.

The Pinto creek region is fast coming to the front as one of the richest sec tions of Globe mining district. Among the most promising claims brought to our attention is the Gypsie Queen, located on the middle fork of Pinto, and owned by Wm. Stewart. J. H. Pascoe and Chas. Dickson. There is an IS foot shaft on the claim showing seven feet of good ore and the lead has been sufficiently prospected to show the width to be 15 feet. The ore carries a large percentage of silver and lead, and some gold. In places on the ledge fine specimens of free gold have been found.
 Assays of ore from the Gypsie Queen, made by l.. G. Coombs & Son, gave very satisfactory results. Samples taken from the shaft in the canyon assayed 4si ounces in silver, over 48 per cent. in lead and 25-100 ounces in gold. Other samples from the same lead, 900 feet northeast, and at con siderable elevation above the shaft, went 2si ounces in silver, 50-100 ounces in gold, and 16 75-1O0 per cent. copper. The lead has been pros. pected for several hunnred feet and shows good ore in all the openings.

The com pany own & group of claims on Pinto creek, all of which are promising pros poets, and on which they expect to dc considerable development work the coming year, especially if the railroad from Geronimo is completed.
