A Mining Wonder.
[From the New York snn.l l

lrrom the New York Sum-
 The newest wonder in American en- gineering has just been inaugurated at Haughton, Mich, viz: The Red Jacket shaft of the Calumet and Hecla-the greatest mining shaft iu the entire world. It is $500 feet deep, and, compared with it the deep silver mines of the Comstoex lode in Nevada, or the wonderful mines in Austria, worked for many centuries past, are but shallow pits. There are six compart- ments, each equal in size to an ordinary mining shaft, four of these being used for hoisting rock and lowering timber ono is used for tbe iad1erways, and the sixth and last compartment carries the wires and pipes for telephones, light, power, water and compressed air. The underground workings of the shaft are laid out with mathematical accuracy, undertaking course of the copper bear ing lode allowing work to be planned thousands of feet ahead of the mineral picks. The great pumps which free the mine of water arg operated inter- changeably by compressed air and electricity. The power drills which eat the holes for the dynamite cart ridges are run by compressed air alone, and there are more than 300 of these drills, each doing the work of dozen men, working both night and day, in the Calumet and Helca.

SHED THEIR TEETH.
Popularity About the MuskeIlunge
q Eiah


a few weeks ago I advanced what
was to me the curious information re-
garding the shedding of its teeth by
the muskellunge during the summer
months, says a writer in Forest and
Stream. l now have confirmation on
the matter advanced at that by Mr.. II.
l., Stanton, of Chicago, and l believe
the phenomenon properly to be re-
gafded as established. Mr.. Stanton's
observations were made in Wisconsin,
and his original informant had seen
the PHENOMENON in Canada. Now comes
Mr.. IL. g. Mccartney, of Chicago, who
has observed the same thing in the
waters Of Cass and ltasca counties
Of Minnesota. Mr.. Mccartney says
that last spring in May and June the
teeth of all the muskellunge taken in
Woman lake and adjacent waters were
sound and normal. On July 10 he ex-
amined fish which showed jaws red
and infiamed, and with some of the
teeth missing. In August still more
teeth were found to be absent in speci-
mems examined. In late August and
in September it was the rule that no
teeth at all would be found in the
mouths of the muskellunge taken. The
muskellunge taken in October all
showed perfect teeth. Mr.. Mccartney
intends 10 keep record on this matter
next year. He does not know whether
the teeth are shed yearly or not, but
knows that they are shed sometimes.

wHFs the Teller resolution came
up 10 the Senate Senator Stewart
ajscbergnil y hrgadsidc aud fired
some hot shot iptQ the gold camp
He said. among other things con
.7el nl0g the STANLEY Matthews reso-
tuition, which is already lew Of the
United States, that the disregard oil
it by the auti.or.tjes tas brought
many calamities upon the land. He
attributed the panic al 1893 directly
to the disregard OF the law. He
showed that the Secretary OF the
Treasury had no more authority to
sell bonds and demand gold Tor them
,w4,en there was coin in the Treasury
10 pay the obligations Of the govern
,ment than he had Bgt the coin III
the Treasury was apparently not the
Kind that the bondholders wanted.
Senator Stewart naiptaipS that ths
daw is mandatory, and requires the
Secretary OF The Treasury to redeem
ponds il SILVER coin. Even the In
dianapoils convention, which knew
all that i j. possible for men IT, know
about finance, admits that govern
ment obligations are payable in gold
or silver, at the option OF the gov
ernment.
The Senator claimed that the sale
of s262, 900, 900 of bonds by the Clcve-
sand administration there was u
steal OF $50, 900, 900, with the conni-
vance of the Executive, and it was a
Shame that no adequate investigation
Of the steal had ever been made by
Pie government.
McEinley copld not have gotten
votes enough to have ppade a decent
showing for President if be had not
been announced as bmetalist 1t
was claimed throqg hont the West
that Mckinley was better bimetai-
est than Bryan because he advocated
tbe only method by which bimetal-
fsp .eoDld be SECURED, a4mely, inter
pational agreement.
Late dispatches announce that the
Teller resolution passed the Senate
by ten majority. II it passes the
House, which is doubtful, the Presi
dent will have chance to show the
country just what kind OF u bimetal-
ist h is. -

"K,NE TO EvRYsUpolE."
The odd Inscription on n Kentucky
Tombstone.

II saw rude, roughly hewn stone
above a grave on an eastern Kentucky
hillside few weeks since" said a state
insurance solicitor to a reporter for the
Louisville Evening Post, that was
placed there before monument makers
aonrished in that part of Kentucky.
There were but two graves in the little,
unfeuced spot, and they were in the
center of q sassafras thicket. This old
slone. over which the ivy had crept, well
nigh blotting out the inscription, bore
these words, which seemed TO have been
ehiseled by trembling fingered noyice:
Jane Laler, ded Agus, 1s49. She wuz
allus kline to eyrybuddie.' thought as
I stood there by the weed-crested mound
of what world of meaning there was
in those few simple words: She wuz
allns kline TO eyrybuddie.' When | shall
have composed my weary limbs for the
last sleep I would ask no greater boon
than that such compliment might
truthfully be placed on the tomb above
my silent form. 1t was no different
from any of the .chiseled platitudes one
sees in large cemeteries. | wondered
what loving heart could have inspired
1t, and stopped to ask about the woman
whose gentle life could merit SO tender
a tribute. Nobody on either side OF
the mountains knew much of the Law
Ter family, but one old mountaineer
said he had been fold the woman was
the wife of an old woodsman who lived
and hunted on Mount Elkhorn in the
first half of the present century. The
palsied hand of the loving husband
doubtless traced the last testimonial OF
reverence"

WENT TO JAIL FOR LOVE
Woman Takes All the Blame for q
Murder Her Fiance Committed.

Murder Her Fiance Committed.
The supreme court of Mexico has
asked President Diaz to pardon Maria
Montesillos, who, some time. ago, was
sentenced to 20 years imprisonment
in Belem Jail for a murder she never
committed. The crime for which she is
suffering punishment was the killing
OF Pascaul Montafio, in family quar-
rel. Miss Montesillos' lover, Piquinto
Torres, was the real murderer, but be-
cause she loved him Maria was willing
to take the penalty. She took all the
blame for the murder and during the
preliminary inquiry by the third crimi-
nal Judge, and afterward at the trial
by jury, stoutly maintained that she,
and she alone, was responsible for the
death of Montafio, whom she had killed,
she said, to free herself from his con-
slant courtship and dishonorable
propositions. Torres, therefore, got
off scot free, and the woman, as the
murder was considered to have been
committed under aggravated circum-
stances, was sentenced to 20 years In
prison, sentence which she cheerfully
accepted. But Torres, when he got
out, was unfaithful, and jealousy then
proved too much for Maria when she
learned of this. She presented the
clearest proof that she was innocent
and Torres guilty, and showed letters
from him to that effect. Her first at
tempt to secure relief was made before
the superior tribunal and was unsuc-
cessful but the supreme court has just
set aside that decision and asked Presi-
dent Diaz to grant her freedom.
