shipment Of ore received a day or two
ago from the Dexter mine at Tuscarora,
New, and they are beginning to feel
as il it would not be long now before

mine is now fairly opened up and in

made from time to time, TO say Meth

hides from the property
The lot Of ore above referred to COM
prising 1874 tons had TO be re-sampled
on account CT its high value. as the
GRE buyers of the city We're afraid to
touch it on only one test, but when
another sample Was made and the ore
was submitted 4 second time TO the
fire II was found that the whole lot
carried values of 4S.10 ounces silver and
1888 ounces in gold to the ton, thus
bringing the value of the consignment
up TO the handsome sum Of S15,soO.
Besides this, the bullion and cyanides
received from the mine during the last
three weeks would bring the total out

present depth is 230 feet and the con-
tract calls for sinking it 800 feet deeper
The stump has been cleaned out and
timbers placed in the bottom of the
shaft preparatory to drilling and blast
ing for further depth. With the Cum
berland shaft 500 feet deep the Cum
oerland company will run a drift tothe
ledge in the hope that a paying ore
body will be revealed. In the upper
workings some very good ore values
were taken from this vein, but not in
paying quantities. The belief is strong
that if depth is attained the Cumber-
land will become a mine some day.

THE MINING EXCHANGE.
Gold Dust Makes Transfers at De
cided Decline in Price.

Considerable interest was manifested
in the call of the mining exchange
yesterday and there was a large rep
resentation of brokers in the pit.
. In the liSte stocks but little business
was done. and while no sharp advances
were noted, the securities were able to
maintain their own in good shape.
There was scarcely any change in Bull
hon-Beck or Centennial-Bure while
Geysar- Marion was not quite as firm
as at the previous call. Four Aces was
somewhat stronger in the bidding but
in the offerings it was stationary
Mammoth was in good demand and at
an advance, while in the asking it was
firm at previous quotations. Northern
Light suffered q bear attack but was
firm. although little off in the bid
ding
Gold Belt s.et the pace for the un-
listed stocks and transferred 1000
shares at 10 cents, which is consider
ably below the figures formerly paid
fer this security. Swansea declined in
the bidding, but in the offerings it was
steady at the quotation of the Gay b.
fore. Emerald attracted more than
usual attention and advances were
noted in the bids and askings. South
Swansea was a favorite at 971a cents
bid and S1.25 asked. Dexter was very
strong and advanced to S1.50 in the
bidding, offered at S1.75.
The closing quotations were as fol-
lows:

THE following paragraph is true, and coming as it does from the St. Louis Globe Democrat, a radical Re- publican sheet, is especially pleas ing
 aIn the interest of reputable journalism and as matter of justice to Arkansas, it is proper to say that most of the stories of lawlessness which come from that State are pure flakes. For instance, the report of a sextuple lynching in Cleveland county published in cer- tain papers yesterday had no foun- dation whatever. The Globe-Deno- crat always investigates such stories before publishing them, and nine times out of ten they are found to be false. Arkansas is as law-abid- ing and generally well behaved as other States, and she has right to protest against these misrepresen- tatioas, and to condemn the papers that publish them for sensational purposes.

few figures there that served nightly to restore our depressed spirits. Do you know that every year this Christian country spends for corsets SIP, 4O7, ,575?-almost ex- actly the sum the whole world spends for foreign missions. Why not inaugurate a crusade against corsets, crusade in which all the doctors will join? Do you know that our havoring extracts cost every year $2,614,514? Think how the missionary treasuries would be filled if you would only pursuade people to do without favoring ex- tracts! Why, the artificial feathers and flowers women wear on their hats costs every year $9,078, 683l If church members would only wear plain hats, there would be no more missionary board debts. Let us eat unleayened bread, and save for mis- sions $7 ,406, 806 we pay every year for baking powders. Let us do without perfumery on our handker chiefs, and make another saving of $4, ,630, Al. Let us keep away from the seductive soda water fountains, and effect another saving for mis- sions SIT ,065, ,624. Let us use our old mirrors. Our vanity in this re- gard costs us each year $6, 1000, 533. Why, brethren, we pay $32, ,620,- 192 every year for patent medicines, and I never read an editorial in your paper against them. Young Amer ica spends $55, ,997, 101 every year for candy. Why not restrict the candy-consumers to 500-or l 1000 at the most-and give the rest of the money to missons? And do you know our new jewelry costs $34, : 761, 458 every year, and our new hats cost $55, 030, 149 just for milli- ners' labor alone? But then, of course, no one would dare say a word about that.
 Really, We feel better. Many thanks to the United States census. We are inclined to think that if 20, 900 or even 10000 young Christians want to use their vacation money to go to Nashville next year, we shall not feel it our duty to object. Of course, however, our doubting brethren, to be consistent, will net take any vacation trip themselves this year, but will save the money for missions.

TRADES PARADE.

Tomorrow, Tuesday, the 3lst inst, is Trades Parade day.
 The GRAPHIC hopes to see the oc- easion made a grand success. The indications are that great many visitors will be in the city to wit ness the demonstration, and on the success of this event largely depends the success of the Labor Day eele- bration on September the 9th, and the County FaiI to be held October 19 to 23rd. If the visitors are dis appointed tomorrow they will not return to witness the Labor Day demonstration, and, perhaps, will be little shy about attending the County Fair. Therefore, all Pine Bluflians should exert themselves to make the Trades Parade success, and every business house should be represented by one or more floats. Pine Bluff and Pine Bluffians should establish the reputation of doing we'll whatever they undertake.
