from several days visit to this Mercur
property, confirms the report of the
finding of free gold in small quantity
IN the workings of the mine and while
he does hot attach any special import

that its presence is indicative Of the
existence of higher grade of ore than
the usual run. In fact, he states that
the battery samples from ore taken
from the portion of the mine in which
the free gold was found, have been
going higher in the yellow metal than
usual
The presence of free gold was dis

QUIET NOW AT NELSON,
But Believed That Renewed Activity
Will Soon Be Noticeable.

Nelson, New, April Fittings have
changed somewhat in this camp since
my last letter to The Herald. Where
then was activity, now there is quiet.
The click of the hammer and the boom
of dynamite is heard no more. The
pick and the shovel are laid away. All
that is heard among the pines and ce-
dars of Nelson now is the shrill notes
of the blu=jay and the cry of the chick
adee and the yelp Of the coyote.

erty has reverted TO its original own
ers, johnson, Campbell and Lund, and
they are in full possession. The con-
tract under which a-bonds was given to

tion of q ten-stamp mill before July 10,
the constant employment of ten men on
the property, and the payment of So, 900
on April Is, $4,000 having been paid
down at the time of the sale. An ex-
tention of 30 days for the payment Of
the SO, 600 was asked for and granted,
but all the other requirements of the
contract remained in force. Instead of
complying with the terms of the con-
tract, on April 10 the men were taken
from the ground, the tools removed and
the mill machinery taken away. Upon
hearing of this. Mr.. Ben Johnson, the

The stock market for the week closed
yesterday in the pit of the exchange
with several exciting scenes on the
floor. the bulls and bears making things
lively during the call of several of the
leading stocks.
As usual, nothing was done in the
way of transfers in the listed securi-
ties until Geyser- Marion was reached,
sales being recorded at a small loss,
previous transfers considered. Nam
moth was somewhat stronger in the
holdings, while Mercur gained strength
rapidly and was very firm, although
inactive at the figures given below. The
main feature of the call, however, was
the heavy slump made by Northern
Light, which touched % cents. in the
selling before the close Of the call, the
stock being weak and Eighty at the
wind-up. Overland maintained former
quotations, while Sacramento changed
hands at 5712 cents being afterwards
wanted in blocks of 1000 at 5S cents,
with no sellers in the pit.
The unlisted stocks also. furnished
sensational features, one of which was
the steady upward movement of Chic
ride Point which, starting at SO cents
in the selling, chronicled transfers at
"a before the close. Grand Central also
did itself proud and established a new
quotation, a block changing hands at
S2.75, with the closing bid at $2.S5.
Swansea was in good form with holders
standing out for better prices, while
South Swansea was a ready seller at
S12215. Dexter advanced to $1.30 in
the bidding, with the lowest offering at
$1.5O.
The transactions in the pit during
the week were the largest for any one
week during the life of the present ez-
change, the heavy sellers being Mercur,
Geyser- Marion, Chloride Point and
Northern Light, with occasional sales
of other leading securities, and the in
dications are that business will be lively
and exciting for another month to come.

THE INDULGENT FATHER
One That Colonel Calliper Knew in
'Storkville Center, VT,

Speaking of indulgent fathers" said Col.
Calliper, reminds me of an old friend of
mine named Silas Zingtock who formerly
lived in Storkville Center, VT. Once when
his little son Rufus wanted very much to
fly kite, at time when he was not well
enough to be permitted to go out, Mr.. ling
took rugged up contrivance whereby the
youngsters desire could be gratified in the
house. He set up a blower in the back
parlor, belted it to an engine in the cellar
below, and when everything as all ready he
started the fan and produced current of
air that was ample to float a kite.
1T was great fun for young Rufus to sit
in the back parlor and fly his kite in the
front, and for time everything went all
right; but on an unfortunate day Rufy
not satisfied with the amount of wind the
fan was blowing, undertook to make it
blow harder, which is something that Mr..
Zingtock had expressly forbidden. 1t seems
that the blower and the boiler and machin-
cry were all much larger than were needed
to produce breeze sufficient to float kite
here, but Mr.. Zingtock, who, though rich
was also thrifty, had had a chance to buy
this plant second hand cheaper than new
plant of smaller size would have cost. and
so he took it and had it set up, and every
morning he used to adjust it so that it
would not go above a certain speed, and
several times he had cautioned his son
never to touch 1t.
about one minute after Rufus did touch
it on this morning when he wanted 1t to
| blow harder, the big fan was going at gait
that set up a hurricane in the parors. 1t
blew the kite against one of the windows
and broke that the first thing and within
minute the pictures were off the walls
and their glasses smashed, tables were up
set. bric-a-brac was knocked into flinders.
and the whole parlor was a wreck. with
the big blower going at top speed and churn-
ing everything there into fragments and
blowing the debris out of the windows
THAT ended the fathers indulgence."-
