JACKS CRANKY IDEAS.
Some of the Old Sea SuperStifiOns
 That Still Linger.

The most picturesque superStitlOns of the seas are those which govern a modern man-of-war. Every old salt in the navy believes in hoodoos and spells which may work all sorts of evils on his ship and must be carefully guarded against.
 The powers of the ships hoodoes commence before the ship has entered the water. It is a generally accepted superstition that if the first blow which is struck the keel brings sparks the ship is destined to suffer a raking fire from the enemy.
 The old time practice of stealing piece of wood and imbedding it in the prov for good luck is, of course, i'm possible in the case of steel ships though it is considered lucky to have a piece of stolen wood on board.
 Another old superstition is satisfied by placing silver coin in some crev- ice of the fighting top of the main mast or some place below decks, where 1t touches the steel mast Originally it was a very common custom to inn bed silver coin, and preferably a Spanish coin, in the wooden steps near the mast.
 Figureheads have been in high fa- vor with sailors from remote antiquity. Originally they were carved to repre- sent some god or saint. Even today sailor would hesitate to sail on an ironcald without such protection.
 The ceremony of launching a ship is merely a concession to an old super stition. The various formalities of

RICH COPPER MINES IN IDAHO.

H. c. Durwent of Chicago was in the city yesterday on his way home. having just returned from a trip to teh Seven Devils country of Idaho. MT. Durwent is an old Colorado miner, having received his first lessons in mining on the old Bobtail in Gilpin county, and for many years has been interested in the copper mines of the Superior district"I have been looking over some of the prospects in the Sev- en Devils country for Chicago crowd who want to engage in copper min ing" said he 'I have learned to be little shy of copper prospects. but must say I was greatly surprised at what I saw in the Seven Devils coun- try. I have seen all the great copper properties of this country and have visited the Rio Tinto mines in Spain, and have never seen anything as prom ising as these Idaho prospects for the amount of development done.
 You see, I am cautious. One can never tell what to expect until the ground is thoroughly exploited, but

BEEKEEPING MADE SIMPLE.

The brood chamber should be con- paratively small in order to force them to store in the boxes-side pieces 191s inches long by 1O1s deep. Head pieces 11A inches wide by 9% deep, which should be nailed in so as to touch the bottom board and be even with the sides on the bottom, but three-quarters Of an inch lower than the sides of the ends of the frames to rest on. A cleat at each end one inch wide outside will close the opening to the cover. Seven or eight one inch square sticks nireu teen ane one-quarter inches longf notched down half the thickness ans wer as well for brood chamber as the chamber should never be robbed, but

if a frame must be taken out the comb may be cut loose at the ends.
 The cover should have hole four inches wide and five inches long. They do not work readily through a small opening. Procure a box of window glass 6xS, for you will need it all. It requires a little delicate work to make the honey boxes, but a little practice will enable any one to do it. The bot tom and top must be of thin wood, rhe sides glass. The bottom 8x75s inches square, the top a shade over eight inches square.
 The bottom board must be notched at one end so as to uncover one-half of the 4x5 opening in the cover of the brood chamber. Two boxes are to be used on each hive the 21hx4 openings in the bottom corresponding with and completely uncovering the 5x4 opening in chamber cover. A bonnet one inch larger every way than the two honey boxes together, viz, 10x18x7 inches in clear-like unti a sewing machine cover should be set over the glass boxes to darken and protect them. When one is filled with honey and the other half filled remove the full one and replace an empty one. Never take all at once. Paste paper board over the opening and store until wanted tor use.
 To set up boxes you must have a clamp-to make which take an even piece of plank foot or so wide, nail on cleat crosswise near one end place beside it bottom with the edges of glass, and lay and nail another cleat against it opposite. Nail at each extreme end, but lightly at the end next you so it may be pulled up when you wish to remove the box. Ribbons of strong paper a yard long and two inches wide, one three or four inches wide around back of opening in the bottom; and one at each side cross wise of this at each side.
 Now put down the bottom and set up the side glasses and bind up the clamp to its place and put on the wooden cover, which must have four small wire nails stuck through over one eighth of an: inch from the edges to catch the upper edge of the glass and bring over and draw the ends of the paper ribbon and paste and tack with small tacks. Now set up end glasses, draw over the two other ribbons and fasten likewise. Place on two boxes mouth to mouth over the opening and place on the bonnet The bees will take care to gum all together. Suit able door must be cut at one end for the bees to work in at.-H. H. Porter in Home and Farm.

can say the average samples tested ran higher than anything that 1 have ever seen in this country, very much high CT than the ore from the Anaconda and Superior mines and considerably higher than the average of the famous Copper Queen of Arizona. In some of the prospects that I examined I found large quantities of copper glance that ran from 50 10 75 per cent, and the av- craze of all the tests made by me was 12 per cent, and this average was not made up from very high and very low grades. I did not include the copper glance in my estimate. Everybody knows what copper glance is and 1 wanted to get the average of the dis trict leaving out the phenomenally rich ore. The average of the Anacon- da property at Butte is about par cent, of the Jerome mines of Arizona not more than 6 per cent, and of the Superior mines not above 2z per cent It will be seen, therefore, that the Seven Devils country, if it holds out upon development, has a great future before it. t
 The only obejction that I can see to the country is the distance from a railroad. There has been much talk about railroad, but development has not progressed far enough yet to war rent railroad construction, and l do not think the road will be built this year. The lack of transportation facil- ities can be partially overcome by the erection of matte furnaces on the ground I was told while there that some coal had been found at no great distance, but even without ccal a matte furnace could be successfully operated with charcoal, as the country is well timbered and we'll supplied with water. I shall recommend to my people the erection of small experimental matte furnace to give the ores a thorough test"@Denver Republican.

CULT1vATING IN THE ORCHARD

When the character and lay of the land vii permit, better growth of the trees can be secured if thorough cul- tivation is given during the early part of the growing season for the first four or five years at least after setting out.
 One advantage of planting a hood crop in the orchard is that if of neces- sity compels cultivation.
 The objection is that in many cases it uses up plant food in the soil that will be needed by the growing trees by the time they come into bearing. Of course if manure is applied this ob- jection is over come.
 But whether a crop is grown or not, so far as other conditiins will admit it will be found best to keep the soil in a good tilth and the weeds down during the early part of the growing season at least.
 During the early stages of growth, say the first two seasons at least, when it can be done it will be found best to cultivate well during the early stages of growth and then mulch well before hot, dry weather sets in. Newly set trees will suffer much less from the drouth if well mulched than if left unprotected, and until the trees gst reasonably well established mulching in summer will be found quite an ad- vantage.
 I am satisfied that one reason why so many trees die and others fail to prove satisfactory, is because of neg lect during the first two or three years after setting out. Get the trees well started to growing while young, and it will be comparatively easy to maintain a thrifty growth, but tree, like a plant, once stunted, will never recover from the effects.
 Outside of what furrows are neces- sary to provide good drainage it will be best in cultivating to keep the soil level. If from any cause cultivation cannot be given to an advantage the next best plan is to seed to clover. Common red or mammoth clover is better than any kind of grass for the orchard.-N. J. Shepherd in Farmers Voice.

{ ship christening have been followed with little variation for centuries. In the earlier days of ship building it was the custom for the captain and the crew to eat their first meals lowed away in the mold loft. Their meal in variably consisted of eggs and sulphur. From this custom has come the pres ent day practice of providing cakes and wine for the crew And the old libation when the priests used to pour over the prow of the ship as she slip ped into the water has been replaced by the breaking of a bottle of cham pagne.
 The modern man-Of-war daSheS into the water with flags waving from every masthead. In order to gratify this old superstition it has been neces- sary to expend hundreds of dollars fer the christening of ship. But no one begrudges this extravagance In a way it is necesHry.
 The good or i'll luck of certain days is still belief among sailors. Friday is day of i'll omen and Sunday is usually lucky day.
 The superstition about women is a relic of the old belief in witchcraft. l. IS thought that woman, by throwins sand in the air on shipboard, can pro- duce violent storms. Not many years ago some women who travelled on Eng fish warships were tortured during a storm to make them quiet the waves.
 These barbaric beliefs, however, are partially compensated for by the su- perstition which sailors have held for centuries, that beautiful children bring a blessing on ship. The Neck" was handsome boy with golden curls. Il is said that he is always accompanied by black lamb and carries with him golden harp. Our old salts have es- pecial confidence in a ship which is christened by child.
 The average sailor is superstitious about the ringing of the ships bells. In olden times the bells were blessed before they were used. At present, if a mistake is made in striking the hour the sailors insist that the bells at once be struck backward to break the spell. And if by chance the wind catch the bells and swing them all the way round, or if they strike nine bells, 1t is believed that it will be the last of that ship.
 All the good warships go to the
 shores of Fiddler's Green" as a final resting place. Just where this mythi- cal harbor is situated no geographer has yet decided. It is in every way the antithesis of "Davy Jones' locker. :" A warship which goes down to battle with colors flying, as occurred several times during the civil war, goes to Fiddler's Green"
 The tatooing habit is, of course. very common in the navy. It is be- ieved that an arm or a leg decorated with the design, of a gun or a sword or some such design, will never be lost in battle.
