QUITE HANDY.

MT. Robert Clinch of Butte, Mont. has obtained patent on miners folding candlestick, which aside from it's primary purpose, embodies several small instruments in combination which are essential in miners use, all of which can be interfolded very com pactly and carried in the pocket. The device contains a handle, having a bifurcated end, which receives a spike adapted to fold back close. The outer holder of sheet metal, bent in cylin- drica1 form, is secured to a short shaft pivoted through a lug, the opposite end of this shaft carrying the hook, whereby the whole device is hung or attached for service, the candle socket being erect with the hook, when the latter is brought into service. A small fiat lever is fulcrumed in the handle bow by a rivet., it's outer end forming

RANGE CONDITIONS.

The June bulletin of the National Livestock association, issued from Denver, says that the abundant rains that have fallen upon the ranges of the west and northwest have created the most encouraging conditions ey- perienced for twenty years and that the favorable weather has made pas turage so early that the movement of cattle to northern grazing grounds will be three weeks earlier this year than last season. Tt is predicted that if these conditions continue and the ranges cure up right and do not get too rank in vegetation, that Utah, western Colorado, Idaho and the en- tire inter-mountain country will have cattle fat enough to go direct from the ranges to market at an early date. It is estimated that the number of this class that will be sent from Utah and Colorado will reach 12,000 head more than in former years"
 Southern ranges have been so good that it has not been necessary to move cattle from the south and shipments from that territory up to date have been about one-third less than a year ago. The scarcity of cattle and the NANS AohSCS OfCl WulCu lu6y dl0 SCdl- tered in the south as well as in the west and northwest give promise of abundance of feed during the coming winter.
 The high price of corn coupled with abundant pasturage in the territory and Texas has reduced the receipts of stock cattle in Kansas. Many cattle contracted for Kansas and Nebraska delivery are now on territory and Tex as grass, where they will be held until ready to go into feeding pens in the fall The Indian Territory pastures, it is estimated, have 100000 more cat tie than last year.
 The bulletin says: Tt may be sal~ that if the price of corn continues to advance or even remains where it is now, that feeders, who purchase stock cattle at the prices ruling this spring. have excellent reasons to anticipate a substantial advance in the price of their fattened animals this fall and winter. There is a material shortage ] already in this class of stock, which

HOW TT AFFECTS.
Firing a Big Gun Brings About Many
 Physical Changes.

Not one man in ten thousand has a clear idea of just what happens when big cannon is fired. The physical manifestations are numerous. Even professors of chemistry and physics are stumped when they want to differ entiate all the gases set loose and the peculiar effects they induce. The puff of whitish smoke, the flash of fire, the dim image of the flying projectile. the roar and the recoil are all familiar; but back of these is a complex mass of phenomena most bewildering to the mind of any but an artillery expert. First, the cubes, disks, hexagons or irregular Jumps of powder are chemi- cally transformed into a powerful, ex-
 banding gas the instant firing takes place. Then there are innumerable by-products that even chemists do not understand.
 The explosion of gunpowder is di- vided into three distinct stages, called the ignition, inflammation and com
 bustion. The ignition is the setting on fire of the first grain, while the in- flammation is the spreading of the flame over the surface of the powder from the point of ignition. Combus- ton is the burning up of each grain The value of gun powder is due to the fact that when subjected to sufficient 1 heat it becomes a gas which expands with frightful rapidity. The so-called explosion that takes place when match is touched to gun powder is merely a chemical change, during which there Is a sudden evolution Of
 gases from the original solid.
 It has been calculated that ordinary
 gun powder on exploding expands
 about nine thousand times, or fills a space this much larger as a gas than i when in solid form. When this
 chemical change takes place in a clos ed vessel the expansion may be made to do work like that of forcing rro- jectile along the bore of the great gun or test tube in the line of least resist
 ance.
 The hardest work a gunner is called
 upon to do is to stand the tremendous shock The forces exerted by these gases in expanding seem to radiate in all directions from the cannon, as rip
 pies are caused by dropping pebble in a pool of still water. AS matter of fact, it has been discovered hat these lines of forces are exceedingly
 complicated affairs and play very queer
 pranks about the cannon. AS result
 few people know just which is the saf-
 est or the most dangerous position for
 a gunner to take beside his gun. In the case Of the great 13-inch guns On our monitors, a position back of the gun is much easier than one nearer
 the muzzle.
 In addition to this force, there is an i immense pressure exerted on the sides of the cannon, so that another distinct series of shocks also radiate outward from the barrel of the gun. These lines of force are influenced, besides, ] by the recoil of the gun, which tends to

IN A PEANUT FACTORY.

When the peanuts arrive at the fac tory they are rough and earth-stained and of all sizes and qualities, jumbled together. The bags are first taken up by iron arms projecting from an end less chain to the fifth story of the fac tory. Here they are weighed and emp tied into large bins. From these bins they fall to the next story, into large cylinders, fourteen feet long. which revolve rapidly, and by friction the nuts are cleaned from the earth which clings to them, and polished, so that they come out white and glisten- ing.
 From this story the nuts fall through shoots to the third and most interest ing floor. Imagine rows of long, mar row tables, each divided lengthwise into three sections by thin, inch-high strips of wood. These strips also sur round the edge of the table Each of these sections is floored with a strip of heavy white canvas which moves in- cessantly from the mouth of the shoot to an opening leading down below at the further end of the table. These slowly moving canvas bands, about a foot wide, are called the picking aprons"
 Upon the outer aprons of each table dr1bbles from the shoot a slender stream of peanuts, and on each side Of the table, so close together as scarcely to have "elbow room" stand rows of negro girls and women picking cut the inferior peanuts as they pass and throwing them into the central section. So fast do their hands move at this work that one cannot see what they are doing till they cast a handful of nuts into the middle division. By the time nut has passed the sharp eyes and quick hands of eight or ten pickers one may be quite certain that it is a first class article, fit for the final plunge down two stories into a bag which shall presently be marked with brand which will command for ii the highest market price.
 The peanuts from the central aprons fall only to the second story, where they undergo yet another picking over on similar tables, the best of these forming the second grade The third grade of peanuts, or what remains af- ter the second picking, is then turned into a machine which crushes the shells and separates them from the kernels. These are sold to the manu- lecturers Of candy, while the shells are ground up and used for horse bed ding. So no part CT this little fruit vegetable, or nut, whichever it may turn out to be, is finally wasted, but all serves some useful purpose

PROSPECTING A SCIENCE.

The practical prospector is rapidly taking the place of the ignorant and inexperienced, says the Mining and Scientific Press. He has paid for his knowledge, not by years of loss mixed up with his gains, to indelibly impress his experience upon the mental facul- ties. It is a business to which few are adapted, and fewer still are successful. There is nothing in the business world that requires such a wide knowledge as that of mining and prospecting The practical prospector of today un- derstands every detail of the solftaric, dynamic and chemical factors most eff fective in the worlds past periods of universal formation He has learned that while heat, water and vapors have produced deposits in veins and otherwise, many of which have proven valuable, that the greater part of the great bonanzas of the world are all ways in connection with two of the six principal divisions of igneous or erruptive rocks-trachyt and felsyte- the former generally lying in great fields and truncated masses, the latter in dikes and in overflows and older for nations. These again have been di- vided into various characteristics, ow- ing to the period of eruption Or subse- C. mt metamorphism, all Of which have been instrumental in mineralizing the adjoining country rocks in veins and deposits. The secrets of the modern prospector and mine manager lie in his knowledge of the dates and effects Of the porphyry overfiows and intrus1ons. The advance from prehistoric mining was slow, but is now coeval with all other industries and scientific attain ments.

make the lines curve outward and jn- tensifies the shock These are in turn more or less compensated by the forces of the air opposing them as it rushes into the mouth of the cannon when the projectile leaves it. As a result of all these forces the atmosphere is, of course, violently disturbed. Although no projectile strikes the gunner, who must stand by, it will be seen that the air is full of missiles in the form of invisible lines of force or vibrations which lombard, as it were, every part of the gunner's body at the same time.
 An examination and analysis of the effect produced upon the human sys- tenn and the mind by the firing of a cannon is most expressing. Men gen. erally accounted courageous tremble violently in their knees; others feel nauseated; some have severe head aches; few have had their ear drums split or the action of their heart af- fected.
 Take the vital organ, the heart, first. In the space between the right auricle and ventricle are set of fine, thread like cords called the tendineae. The concussion makes them tremble like timbers in building when there is an earthquake. In a weak man the cham Der of the heart is left open for an in- stant; the opening and closing spfings lose their control; the heart shakes; possibly the choradae tendineae are snapped; contraction or dilation of the organ ensues and in some instances death follows.
 Deafness induced by an explosion may be traced to the sudden pressure upon the inner orifice of the ear and the tremendous vibration set up The thin, transparent, fairly bright mem brane called the drum of the ear Is burst, like piece of tissue paper held taut and forcibly blown upon. Sounds are conveyed by the beating of tiny mallet upon this anvil. If the beating is too rapid and too forcible the membranes may be ruptured, a tenn porary disturbance of the mind occurs 1 and the sufferer becomes dizzy. When the knees tremble it is due to the nervous shock produced in the cerebellum. Al the nerves and mus cles are thrown into atomic contrac- tions and relaxation and the knees appear to give way.
 Nausea is also caused by the physi- ological change that takes place in the brain. There is pressure of blood there, and the stomach, responding tries to empty itself-Philadelp Times.

RARE SPECIMENS.

It is to be regretted that the men whose everyday work takes them into places where they find the rarer specl- mems of minerals are not lovers Of the cabinet. or are so itineiant in their To- cation that they cannot carry these really valuable specimens from place to place with them, writes Letson Bal liet in the Mineral Collector. Many times in the course of the month see ore brought out that would be highly prized by the mineral collector. while the intrinsic bullion value is small, yet there is nothing for me to do but to throw it into the mill.
 Wire Gold.-One specimen if pure white quartz came out last month lit erally filled with wire gold. A few specimens of quartz crystals showed at one end, with wire gold protrudlng from around the base, while all the lit tie cracks and crevices seem filled with leaf gold. The piece, quartz and all. is about the size of mans fist, or trifle smaller, and by the specific gray ity test indicates that it contains about $36 bullion value. This is a remark ably fine specimen, yet l have no place to keep it and will be compelled to throw it into the mill.
 Crystallized Gold.-One specimen, the only one I have ever seen, came out last month in a car of ore and I accidentally found it. It is about one inch long, in the form of heavy wire of gold, while all along it's length are little crystals of pure gold, adhering as rock sand might to a string The bull lion value was about $1, but as a speci- men it was worth a good deal more.
 Quartz Showing Free Gold.-Large numbers of fine specimens of this come out every day and week, but there are too many varieties to admit of and description here. is an every day occurrence to ruthlessly crush up specimens with few cents or dollars worth of gold in them that would be worth twenty times as much to the collector.
 Rich ore showing no free gold are common, and many fine specimens ap- pear daily. The peculiar varieties from many mines would make fine speci- mems for any cabinet.
 Native Silver.-Is by no means un- common, yet many cabinets lack good specimens. One small pocket piece that I have weighs IF ounces and con- tains one ounce of silver and one-half ounce of gold, taken from the Com stock. lode.
 Molybdenite Ore.-This very rare element, found in a peculiar quartz rock in a few localities, is a great ncv- city. I have probably a ton of fine specimens that have saved from the mine and carried into the tool house at different times, because my old love for cabinet was too strong in me to let me destroy them. This ore is worth about $1 an ounce as taken from the mine (metal value at reduction works. ] This is the only moiybdenite mine Tn California, and is so isolated on a des- ert that few care to visit it-Wss -ern Mining World.

NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.


 F. X. O'Brien is in Prescott from his mining camp.
 The Orc Plata mine is yielding more gold than they have teams to haul.
 The Gro Plata near Cerbat is large shipper of ore, the largest in Mohave county.
 Mr. Metz, who is interested in the Climax and Standard mines in Dos Ca bezas camp, was in Wilcox Saturday.
 J. F. Osenburgn is up from his min ing camp near Congress, being his first trip to Prescott since he left last No vember.
 McPherson & Go. of Tombstone have the contract for hauling ore from the Pena Blanco mine to the railway at Calabasas.
 The Martin and Wilson camp about six miles northeast of Harrisburg is rapidly developing into a wonderful strike
 L. S. Strickler, who has had charge of the assaying department for J. T. Dougine at Santa Maria, left Prescott Tuesday for Albuquerque.
 Deputy Sheriff Otto Moore has re- signed and removed with his family to Dragoon, where be is interested in some promising mines.
 MT. James Demorest, the we'll known mining man of Dos Cabezas camp, left Wednesday night for Tucson from which place he goes to look at mining property. In a few days he will pro- ceed to northern California tc revisit old haunts.
 Much steady development work Is being done on many claims in the va rious mountain ranges of Coehise county, of which the public hears but little. If an accurate census could be taken of the number of men engaged in mining in the county the result would be surprising.
 MT. O. B. Hardy is vigorously push ing development work on the Pena Blanco mine in Neon canyon, toward the Gro BlancO country, and is ship ping two carloads of ore weekly. Ii runs about 65 per cent lead with a fair showing of silver.-Oasis. MT. Hardy has a bend on the Gallen and Loudon grop of mines near Prescott Yoeman & Butcher are engaged in cutting stulls and running timbers near the Jersey Lily mine. While shooting timbers down a hill a few days ago log going at terrific rate of speed caught fire. The fire spread and 1000 feet of mining timbers be- longing to these gentlemen, as well as some standing timber were burned.
 The New York Herald of the 23d says: "The action brought by Jchr Elsey against B. c. Davis. who charg- ed Davis with selling him worthles: mining stock, was dismissed yesterday by Magistrate Braun, who said tha1 the case never ought to have beer brought into court" MT.

will be another factor in bringing about this result"
 The demand for scrub stock in every branch of livestock industry Is becom- ing more contracted each season, and in no other branch have men learned their lesson better than in that of feed ing cattle for the market. All know that in that business the quality of the animal fed decides whether there will be profit or loss in feeding. The men who paid high prices at the start were the men who made money in the end
