Mountain OF DiamOnds.

Some idea of the wealth of the South
African diamond diggings may be
formed from the fact that in twenty
six years no less than seventeen tons
of those precious stones have been I'M
earthed, aggregating in value $4,000
600; that the yearly output is now about
$15,0O0,000, and that as old fields be-
come less valuable new ones are being
discovered. which promise to maintain
the product. The profits of three dia-
mond companies run from $7,5OOO0O to
IS. 500. 900 each, with annual dividends
of 40 per cent, and it is owing to the
deXterous management of these mon
opolies that the price of diamonds has
not been affected to any noticeable eX-
tent.-London Times.

SHOT IN THE CHEST.
Youngest Daughter of Ex-Sens,o
blackburn seriously Wounded

Washington Jan. II. - In her ana.
ments in the Wellington hotel Mrs. l.
ellie Lane, youngest daughter of ex-Sen.
tor Joe Blackburn of Kentucky, shot he
self. According to the statement given
out by the family the shooting was acct
dental Both of Mrs. Lanes physicians
refused to discuss the subject even to the
extent of saying whether or not the
wound would prove fatal, but from the
best that can be learned she will probably
recover, although suffering severely from
the shock A friend of the family nomi
mated to give out statement said at mid
night on Saturday Mrs. Lane was prepar-
ing to retire Her husband at the time
was in the adjoining room looking over
the paper. Mrs. Lane opened bureau
drawer to get handkerchief and picked
up handful of gloves and laces which
had been tossed together in the drawer.
Under this fluffy mass was tiny lady's
pistol, gift to Mrs. Lane from her faith
err, and possession of which she was par
ticuarly fond 1t caught in piece of lace
as she raised her hand, and, falling of its
own weight. struck the hammer on the
edge of the open drawer. The pistol ex-
ploded and the ball penetrated her left
breast
What became of the ball it is impossible
to say. According to the statement given
out it struck rib and ranged around be.
meath the left shoulder, making only a
superficial wound. At the same time it is
said Mrs Lane is suffering so from the
shock that the physicians have devoted
all their energies to rallying her without
attempting to ascertain the extent of the
injury.
Lucille was the youngest daughter Of
Senator Black burn. She was married in
1895 to Thomas f. Lane, prominent bus
mess man and politician of Summit, n. j.
At the time of the marriage Mr.. Lane
was chief of division in the treasury de-
partment. Subsequently he accepted
place with the Maxim Arms Company Of
New York as their agent in Washington.
The position is reputed to be a good one
and the Lanes had apparently always an
abundance of money, which they spent
freely, living at fashionable hotel and
seeming to lack none of the good things
of life. Their little girl, something over
year old, was one of the favOrites about
the house with all who knew her, and the
particular pride of her mother. Mr. and
Mrs. Lane, according to those who saw
them every day, were unvaryingly affec-
tionate and attentive to each other and
she, while of slight physique, was in ex-
cellent health.

THE brown sides of a deer are very
/ ground clump of brown bushes. But
| the expert still hunter sits quietly on
q log aud peers into the distance stead
| lily, examining all details before him.
| Occasionally his fancy will help him
| to make a dcers haunch out of a hump
on tree on he will fancy he sees an
antler mixed with the small branches
of bush, but his trained eye finally
removes all doubt. But he is in no
hurry. He is like the deer, patient,
keen of sight and quick of hearing
He knows that if there are any deer on
their feet in his vicinity he will get his
eyes on them If he takes the time or If
he waits long enough he is likely to see
them on the move. At all events he
must see the deer first. Then he must
get near enough to him to bring him
down with his rifle.
Still hunting is the popular method
in Wisconsin. Hunting with hounds is
forbidden by law. Another method
used with success is what is called
"breasting. Several hunters walk
through the woods in line, a good gun
shot apart. A similar line is formed
in another portion of the woods, and
the men in both lines walk toward each
other. Whatever deer may be lying
down are jumped and the hunters take
a chance at getting a snap shot as the
deer starts away. If he runs down the
line he may get shot or if he goes
straight away he may eventually run
afoul of the other line of hunters. Half
dozen men hunting in two lines in
this way are likely to bag several deer
in mornings hunt.
Several years ago the market hunt
erS played havoc with the deer in the
northern woods. They made it bust
ness to hunt in all manner of ways and
were so successful that it became nee
essary to make and enforce laws for
the animals protection. A favorite
method of the market hunter was TO
shine" deer at night. The deer NOV
ing about feeding, would be attracted
by huge lamp. His curiosity would
lead him to come near enough to the

Within a nights ride of Chicago deer
and bear may be found in good mum
beers. Yet little further iuto the will
derness such an abundance of deer
has not been seen for many years. In
the wilds of Wisconsin and throughout
Northern Michigan deer are so plenti-
full that the "still" hunters have had
no trouble in walking up game in
any likely piece of woods.
Wisconsin always has been good
deer country. Food is abundant the
wods are large and there is just such
variety of country as the deer loves for
habltation. He can wander over nils,
through thick swamps or open woods,
and all around is silence save what
noise il made by the chirping birds aud
wild creatures like himself He loves
TO feed little on the lowlandS anu
then browse on the high ground. 1t
takes him long time to make meal,
and no matter how much of good food
there may he in any particular place he
will not remain there to thoroughly sat
isfy his appetite. He must roam about
and eat over great deal of territory.
When he has browsed and fed till he Is
content he loves to pose behind clump
of bushes and watch and listen. At
such times he stands with head up as
stanch as a setter on point, and IL one
watches him closely not movement
of his muscles will be detected He
sweeps the country before him with
his keen eyes, and his sharp ears will
be disturbed by the breaking of twig
anywhere within gunshot.

WAS PuLLMAN's MooEL.MAKER.
Job W. Massey Made the Plans of the
First Dining Car.

job w. Massey is Il farmer, living
about nine miles north of Charleston,
Ill. The death of George VI. Pullman
has brought to light the fact that Mr..
Massey was at one time associated

In 1860 Mr. Massey was a model
maker in Chicago He furnished the
"mechanical brains" for men who had
bright ideas. but not the skill to exc
cute them. Through the channels Of
business Massey became acquainted
with the manager of the Pullman car
