MRS. M'KlNlEY AT EUCHRE.
Her Fondne For the Game at Which
She Continues to BE Invincible.

Her Fondno For the Game at Which
She Continues to BE Invincible.
The presidents solicitude for the
comfort and pleasure Of Mrs. Mckinley
is known to every friend and acquaint-
ance in the White House circle. Not
only does the president look after his
wife and her comfort first at all public
gatherings, but he carries out this in
flexible rule at private parties. especial
ly where card playing is INDUCED in.
1t is source OF great pleasure for Mrs.
Mckinley to be able to participate in
gatherings where euchre is feature,
and it invariably happens that she
comes out winner. 1t is habit Of the
president to be opposed to his wife in
this game, and he adopts clever trick
by which she can always tell what he
is holding in cards. Apparently in the
most upintentional manner he will drop
his cards face up or otherwise expose
his hand accidentally, and Mrs. McKin-
ley is quick to take advantage of his ex-
posure.
Euchre parties at the White House
are of nightly occurrence except ON the
occasion of state dinner or public re-
ception, and these gatherings are the
source of great amusement not only to
the president and his wife, but to those
who are invited to the White House to
participate in them. 1t has become pro-
verbal how lucky Mrs. Mckinley is at
euchre, and she is always in demand as
partner when a game is being made
up. These euchre parties are not con-
tinued beyond 10 o'clock, and the fin
ish is always a source Of unbounded
merriment ON the part Of the president
and his guests. His parting greeting on
such occasions is to come over some 9th
er evening and try to overcome the
luck, coupled with good playing, shown
by Mrs. Mckinley. Meanwhile the mis-
tress of the White House continues to
be invincible at euchre. Chicago Trib-

GALLANT PRINCE ALBERT.

pow . Pretty Girl Received Ring From
the Royal Traveller.
The news is getting out that Albert.
Prince Of Flanders. heir to the Belgian
throne, made himself very agreeable to
his fellow passengers ON the Kaiser
Wilhelm der Crosse. Being a gallant
young man. he was attentive to the
women. Fourth Officer Veich Of the
great steamship tells some good stories
about his highness.
1.-The prince is most agreeable COM
panion ON voyage" said Officer Veich.
"Several very pretty girls were in the
first cabin. and the prince was very de-
voted to them. One, whom we will call
Miss Blank, is the daughter OF Wis
consin physician. The prince was in
troduced to her, and they became very
good friends. Miss Blank recently ap-
peared wearing superb ring set with
emeralds and sapphires. She seemed
very proud of it and said frankly and in
nocently that the prince had given it to
her. All of the women wanted to look
at the ring, and some made Ill natured
remarks. overheard one older woman
of Miss Blank party say to her: Don't
you think yo1 were-well, indiscreet
to take such costly ring, even from a
prince? And then to think you were so
foolish as to let everybody see it,.
"Miss Blank laughed, teased her
friend awhile, and then said: i shall
keep the ring as souvenir of apleasant
companion during the voyage, and not
because of its value. The prince and /
were talking of jewels and how they
are initiated nowadays. He showed me
a beautiful ring he wore, and then took
from his pocket this one, exactly like
it. "Choose the true gem and you can
have it," he said. laughing at me. He
shook the rings together between his
palms. / chose this one. It's paste and
worth about 81 or so, and SO think I
am free to keep it. '"-San Francisco

Franklin Mining Co.

At the annual meeting OF the Franklin
Mining Co. held on the 25th the following
votes were unanimously carried, each by
vote ofIover 81 800 shares out OF a to-
tai OF 40, 900 shares outstanding.
Old board OF directors reelected, except
that George r. Richardson, OF Lowell,
succeeded K. 4. Demmon.
Directors authorized to sell the old
Franklin mine at their discretion.
Capital stock to be doubled by the
issue to be offered to stockholders pro
rata at not less than $40 per share.
There were about two dozen stock
holders in attendance at the annual meet
ing OF the Franklin Mining Co. this morn
ing, including directors o. d. Ashley OF
New York, and Graham Pope OF Michi-
gan. There was free discussion OF the
coupany's plans. and the situation at
the Lake was clearly explained by Cap
tain Pope.
Ii appears that the company's present
stamp mill, with three heads OF stamps,
hes a capacity OF only 450 tons OF rock
per day and that the rock and sand has
to be handled several times, making the
average cost OF treating the rock 54
cents per ton. It is proposed to build a
modern stamp mill, with Fl I've heads, cap.
able OF treating l, 500 tons OF rock per
day as a minimum amount and at an
average cost OF only 25 cents per ton.
The saving in the cost OF handling and
treating the rock at the new mill site and
with modern mill will be considerable
and more than Offset the increased cost
of operating FIVE heads OF stamps. The
new mill site selected, and upon which
an option has been obtained, has afront
age on Portage Lake OF one mile and
will furnish ample docking facilities and
sufficient room for dumping sand. which
the company now lacks at the old mil
site where they have about reached the
limit set by the government in the mat
ter OF dumping sand into the lake at thai
point, The new mill will be connected
with the mine by a railroad nine mile'
long over an easy grade.
IL IL conseryatiyely estimated that th'
Pewabic lode in the Franklin Junior will
yield Y per cent. mineral and 80 De
cent. ingot. These figures applied to
product Of 800 tons OF rock per da.
and a IL or 12-cent copper market woul,
result In net income OF from $3 to 8
per share per annum on the stock.
The subject OF the Pewabic suit wa
brought up. IL was stated that thei

that this numerical predominance of the

cannot say, and I Will not say
That he is dead-he is just awayl
With a CHEEKY smile, and wave Of the
hand,
He has wandered into IN unknown land,
And left us dreaming how very fair
1t needs must be, since he fingers there.
And you-O you, who the widest yearn
For the old-time step and the glad return
Think Of him faring on, as dear
In the love Of There as the love of Here;
And loyal still, as he gave the blows
OF his warrior-strength to his country's
foes
Mild and gentle, as he was brave
When the sweetest love Of his life he gave
Blue as the eyes they wero likened to,
The touches of his hands have strayed
AS reverently as his lips have prayed
When the little brown thrush that harshly
chirred
Was dear to him as the knocking bird;
And he pltied as much as a man in pain
A wrlthing honey-bee wet with rain
Think Of him still ms the same, I sayi
lie Is not dead-he Is just awayl

Orchardists in Tasmania are subject
to a fine of from $3.50 to S., with costs,
Il they fail to bandage their trees to
keep down the cOdling moth, or if they
fail to gather and destroy an infested
fruit. Wormy apples sent to market
are liable to confiscation and destruc-
ton, and the shipper to prosecution. In
New South Wales all infested fruit
coming from other colonies may be
seized and destroyed, or returned to the
shipper at his own expense. Fruit
growers are generally assisting the
Government in enforcing these laws.
Similar laws in this country for a few
years would seem a hardship to many
parties, but would be of benefit to fruit
growers and to the country If they were
strictly enforced.

Porto Rico, the one portion Of Spain's

siderable attention as a promising field
for enterprise. One of the most inter-
esting and valuable articles on Uncle
Sans new Island Is that contributed
to the Century by Frederick A. ODER,
late commissioner In Porto Rico Of the
Columbian Exposition. Mr.. ODER gives
a charming picture Of the loveliness
Of the Porto Rlcan landscape and the
beauties Of It's tropical climate, IN
which respect he simply agrees with
all other observers, from Ponce de
Leon to Gen. Miles and his army. Geo
graphically, Porto Rico is very simple.

most every valuable or aromatic tree
or shrub common to tropical climes
fiourishes on the island, and these win

regime Of Industry and enterprise upon
which Porto Rico is about to enter.
The lowlands are extremely fertile and

plantains and other tropic fruits yield
