MINING HEADQUARTERS.
The Enterprising Spirit of the To-
ronto Bureau of Mines.


Before the adjournment of the ses-
sion of the International Mining con-
gress. which was held in Salt Lake last
summer. it was decided to maintain
permanent headquarters in this city, it
being expected that the means for its
maintenance would be forthcoming in
the way of subscriptions.
In this regard, however, the officers
of the organization have been largely
doomed to disappointment, as so far
not more than l per cent OF the amount
anticipated has been subscribed and
the outlook for the future in this re-
spect is not of a gorgeous or rosy hue,
owing to the apparent Indifference and
lack of interest in the matter mani
Tested by the leading mining men OF
this western country.
AS a matter of fact, Utah people have
not been at all responsive to the call
Colorado has done somewhat better
but has not strained herself in the least
in making donations to the cause, and
Secretary w. D. Johnson is beginning
to feel that a stirring effort will have
to be made if the headquarters are kept
open until the meeting of the next
congress.
Still, he meets with encourag cement
from unexpected quarters now and
then, his latest surprise in this line
being quite a commentary on the apa-
thy displayed by the mining fraternity
of this inter mountain regionu, the sur
prise being in the shape of a $50 check
sent by the bureau Of mines of Toronto,
Can. the donors sending it for the ex-
press purpose of maintaining the head
quarters of the mining congress, thus
showing, that although living under an
other flag from the Americans, the
members of the bureau are public spir-
tied and realize the Importance of the
congress even more so than their cous-
ms across the line.
Comment is unnecessary. as ''compar-
iSonS are odious'

MAMMOTH IN THE ASCENDANT.
South Swansea, Dexter and Mercur
Were Among the Dealers.

Were Among the Dealers.
Stocks were in the ascendant yester-
day, and the bulls chased the bears out
of the pit and into the woods, although
several skirrlishes occurred before the
rout of the bruins was complete.
At the opening the call was charac-
terized by lack of interest and mac
tivity. Geyser- Marion was stationary
Observation-Disclosures was somewhat
stronger in the bidding while Daisy re-
corded a. bid of GO cents. Mammoth,
however, opened the ball. and the
steady advance made by this popular
security caused some establishment in
the pit, especially as it chronicled gains
of nearly 10 cents above the selling
quotations of the previous day. Mercur,
which has been on the shelf for the
past week or so, pushed to the front
with a sale at $40, and at the close
it was wanted at even better figures.
In the call of Sacramento buyer and
seller were but cent or two apart.
The unlisted securities were in good
demand, and were active traders. Chic
ride Point took the initiative with a
sale at 81. South Swansea was on the
upgrade, and posted transfers at 81 80,
being the highest point reached by this
stock for the past six months. Dexter
also came in for recognition and was
strong, although II looked at the hrSt
as if the bears contemplated raid on
the stock, which registered a sale at
$1.6S. Omaha furnished entertainment
for the brokers, as well as the crowded
lobby, and the transactions in this Sc
curity were such as to lead to the be-
lief that one of the dealers had over
reached himself, as he sold at Al cents,
then posted a bid of Al, selling later on
at so. Joe Bowers found a buyer at
81 cents. and Valeo wound up the
trading of the hour by the dropping of
300 shares at So cents.
The transactions Of the day were as
follows:
SALES OF STOCKS.
400 Mammoth at $3.50.
100 Mercur at $40.
100 Chloride Point at 81.
400 South Swansea at $1.30.

Rural Mail Delivery.
Editors Indiana Farmer.

Editors Indiana Farmer.
Rural free mail delivery is subject
which should interest every pro-
greSsive farmer in the land to-day.
No one has better right and no
one less leisure time in which to
procure his mail from the some
times far distant postofice than the
tiller of the soil-he who creates the
greater part of the wealth in the
world by the sweat OF his brow.
Many, perhaps in this state do not
know that free rural delivery is
being put to a practical test in about
two>thirds of the states, and that in
every instance it is giving great
satisfaction to those who enjoy its
benefits. To those who are not sup"
to its costs and advantages this
article is respectfully dedicated, and
they are kindly asked to reflect over
and discuss its benefits pro and con.
In the first place l know whereof |
speak when l assert that it is a grand
success, having the pleasure (more
pleasant imaginary than practical)
of delivering the mail to seventy-two
families of farmers, and riding thirty
three miles every day through sun
shine and snow storm. Our town
ship was the second place in the
