NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

The Crowned King Mining company has paid it's fourteenth dividend in the sum of $12,000.
 F. X. O'Brien has left Prescott for his mining camp. He expects to start his mill up in about three weeks.
 George Whitaker, well known resident and mining man of Chapar- ral, has been in Prescott for few days. He announces himself as can didate for sheriff.
 Ex-Governor Thornton of New Mex leo was in Bisbee last week on busi- ness. The governor is interested in the San Magnileta mine in Sonora and is making that an excellent property.
 An inspection of the new smelter being erected at Williams shows that the present stack will smelt the cop per ores of the Grand canyon. A GUS tom lead stack will be added after a little time.
 The steamer Mohave left Yuma Thursday for Ehrenberg with a cargo of merchandise and mining machinery for various points up the river. A cargo of ore will be brought down on the return trip.
 The fifteen tons of copper Col. Hardy and Ed Phinney brought to Bis bee to the smelter from their mine in the Whetstone mountains averaged 15.2 per cent copper, which is an ex- cellent showing for a prospect.
 The diamond drill If it does not bring up a good core, invariably gives a mine quite setback. The drill is very deceiving as to values, sometimes oyerrates and sometime undertakes an ore body and sometimes misses body of ore by one inch.
 A discovery of ferromanganese is reported in Jefferson county, Pa. Hitherto the supply of this very rare mineral has come almost entirely from Spain, so that it's discovery on this side of the ocean may be interpreted as another victory for the United States over Spain.
 John w. Gerrit has purchased the famous old Metallic Accident mine from Mrs. Helen Jamison of California For many years the old mine has been idle, but in the years gone by it pro duced ore so rich in silver that the old timers refer to it as the richest silver

strated forever woman's fitness to care

strated forever woman's fitness to care for the soldier.
 q have seen it conclusively proved that the rougher the soldier the more easily is he managed by a woman. The devotion of the soldiers to the female nurse is beautiful. I don't recall a nurse who was killed in the civil war, but remember very well when a west got hit in the arm by stray bullet. She had to be put to bed for several days and the attentions that enough to turn the average woman's s head; they touched her heart The men went out of their way to pick wild flowers for her, they insisted upon sharing their rations with her, they devised all sorts of things to amuse her, and they almost wore out the path leading to her tent in making in- quiries about her. When she was able to walk out, but was still com pelled to carry her arm in sling, every man stood with head uncovered as she passed, and the dainty, digni- fled little creature deserved every mite of this respect and devotion.
 ''Thle greatest danger of the work lies not in bullets. but in disease. A great many nurses were carried off by disease during the civil war, but, as rule. they stood the tax remark ably well physically. When female nurse first entered the army for two or three days she was almost dazed. Everything was so new to her that she was tired out and homesick, but she soon warmed to her work, just as a naturally not over-brave soldier of- ten warns up to fierce fighting. Then she accomplished an immense amount of work, often going without food, sleep or rest of any kind for long per- iods. These women became hardened to service just as the men did.
 Nothing gives a doctor SO much con- fidence as to- see the white cap and apron of a trained nurse at the bed side, but there is nothing worse than this sickly sentiment about military nursing Many a, girl thinks that it would be such 2 nice thing to wear the

TIPS ON THE KLoNDYKE.

A correspondent of the Engineering and Mining Journal, writing from Dawson City, sends the following straight tips" to that journal:
 with regard to gold deposits or the Klondyke, I do not find room for any glacial theories; they are just plain, ordinary, everyday placers. l have some splendid specimens of anl- nal bones, which have taken out or the gold bearing gravel practically in tact. On one of the bones the gravel still adheres, and flakes of gold show in the pieces sticking to the bone.
 ssThe gold bearing gravel is from two and one-half to five feet deep, and penetrates from six to eighteen inches in the bed rock; the whole being covered with some fifteen feet of mud or muck. In some places the bed rock is a mica schist, in others quartz schist mixed with slate.
 "No quartz veins of any value have so far been discovered; but gold ex- ists in the seams of quartz in the ped rock I have seen no pieces CT golu quartz larger than two inches wlde, and where it came from cannot be mlStaken.
 "This work up here is the worst in the world and cannot be dign1fied by the name of mining. The climate is terrible, but there is plenty of gold and work for years in these regions. At present labor is $1.50 per hour; everything can be averaged up at about $15O per pound. Food is scarce, but people will not die from starvation this year, though there is a pretty narrow escape from it Cigars t277s and scent kind) are 50 cents; the worst liquor in the world 50 cents a glass.
 They figure on an output of $15,- 100000 this year, but the more con servative put it at $10,000,000. think you will see an awful shrinkage on the known output, if the Canadian government enforces the payment of 10 per cent royalty on the output as proposed

Red Cross uniform and to lounge around military hospital. Army nursing isn't all smoothing a wound ed mans brow, taking him flowers and reading to him, and the quicker people who think that it is learn how the soldiers despise this sort of thing the better it will be fer all concerned The quiet, dignifed, distant woman is the one who succeeds and does the most good in the field. It takes a great deal of bravery and devotion to duty for a woman to leave her home and friends and go to the front in time of war; She has to suffer much from hardships and homesickness.

Through Mr. Mcmillan.

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 1.-THE Citizens
Bank of Savannah to-day, through Repre-
sentative Mcmillan, who is a director in
that institution, rendered a loan of $4,000
to the state of Georgia.
Mr.. Mcmillan, who called upon the Gov
ernor this morning and made the offer.
pursuant to the action of the directors
of the bank, said that nothing had been
said about the rate of interest, but if
Gov. Gambler wishes the money the Cit-
zens Bank will not stand back on that
score
This amount is all that the charter of
the Citizens Bank permits it to lend to
any one corporation If 1t was not for
this, Mr. Mcmillan said, it would gladly
accommodate the state up 20 the constt.

Gov Atkinson found it necessary to go
East to borrow money for the state. Gov
Gambler will, it appears from Mr.. McMil-
lan's offer to-day, be able to get all he
wants when the treasury is in need. which
IL is understood, is not likely to happen
just yet awhile, without going beyond the
limits of the state. Gov Gambler apnre-
ciates the tender of the Citizens Bank very
much.

day that his plans had been laid well
ahead, and that when appropriations be
came available there was no delay in
launching the work. He knew what would
be required, and acted accordingly.
When asked if he had any suggestions
TO offer the commission Gen. Greeley said:
Il believe that there should be some Of
ficer in the American army whose duty
it should be to see that the American SOL
der is fed. l believes the problem of feed
ing, clothing and paying the army is a
business one, and any three competent
business men could get together and de-
wise a system as much in advance Of
our present one as that is in advance of
$50 years ago"
will you state how Cervera was To-
Gated in Santiago?"
Through Col. Allen Of my corps" said
Gen. Greeley, who received the news
from Havana in the afternoon. and the
President had il at midnight"
How did you manage to communicate
between Santiago and Havana, and how
did you get the news out of Havana?"
I'VE had our confidential agents in Cuba
where they would do the most good, and
they had their own methods of communi-
eating with each other. We arranged
that before the war They were men
upon whom we could depend, and when
anything worth knowing happened in Gu
ba, the President usually had it by mid
night.
Gen. Charles p. Egan, commissary gem
eral testified that upon assuming charge
of his department he found an abundance
of food on hand and with the troops at
various points in the field This contin-
ued up to date. As to complaints, he
said about 20 per cent. of the officers
thought unfavorably of the canned roast
beef. He received no actual complaints.
He had the matter Investigated and
found the meat perfectly good.
The department furnished an abundance
of potatoes, onions and tomatoes to cook
with it, If they did not reach the SOL
ders, that was the fault of the transpor-
tation department. Cases OF neglect in
the transportation and loading of supplies
had come to his notice in several cases,
and had been presented personally to the
quartermaster general.

beans and everything else in fact were
well cooked? Does not the value of the
food work down to the value of the cook.
after all?"
Gen. Egan-"Unquesuon so. I be-
lieve the cooking was almost uniformly
bad. 1 believe good cooks ought to be
employed if they cost hundred dollars a
month"
