donkeys, goats, merry go rounds and
other attractions were full for the day.

days festivities alone, and were re-
warded by seeing many thousands of
children made thoroughly happy for the
day.
The State Mining fair, which opened
at Mechanics pavilion at 1880 this eve-

sitions ever. seen in this state. Among
the exhibits Is perfect miniature of the
North Bloomfield mine, the largest hy-
draulic mine in the world, which was in
operation tonight. Two converging
streams shot out from the hydraulic
giants in front and poured their torrents
into the head of the bedrock ditch, So
feet distant. This water falls into a
tank prepared to receive 1t below and
was pumped up again to continue the
operation. The mine is supposed to be

clared by the Probate Court heir to his
fathers estate, valued at $125,000, was
found dead in bed this morning at 1145
Mission street, death having been
caused by deadly illuminating gas
Whether Wiley committed suicide or
death was caused by accident may new
er be known, but the Coroner is of the
opinion that Wiley met his death
through accident. He was the only son
of the capitalist, Amasa p. Wiley, and,
though given the benefit Of a good edu-
cation, he early developed a desire to
lead wild life. III 1892, when still q
minor he promised to reform If his

a short time young Wiley was the pink

Then his old habits once again con-
trolled him and the wife of the young
man filed suit for divorce on the ground
of habitual intemperance.
The marriage tie was severed in No

awarded $50 per month as alimony.
Willey's father died in February of

Another equally interesting exhibit is
the tunnel with it's representation of un-
derground quartz and drift mining. The
spectators walk for certain distance in
an underground tunnel, then suddenly
come to a rise. A few steps more lead
to the winze. The miners have started
to sink on the vein, but finding water af-
ter is feet have stopped. A bucketful
of quartz hangs suspended over the
shaft. The passage leads through many
winding passages lined with quartz, gilt
tering and mysterious with mica dust.
Finally an elevator drops down six hun
dred feet into the bowels of the earth
to the underground station. An electric
pump which drains the mine and the
compressed air drill are in actual opera
ton. A breast with rich pocket invites
the spectators attention in one direc-
ton. Finally, dazzled, bewildered, en-
chanted and instructed the spectators
are allowed to creep up steep ladder
and find themselves on the ground floor
again.
Other interesting features of the min
ing display are the arrastre for grinding
quartz, to be worked by mule, and the
quicksilver lake, in which different

ais will be floating to show the difference
between their specific gravity and that

A Merciful judge

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Jan. go. - A.
Chaugan, formerly City Treasurer, was
today sentenced to four months impris-
onment in the County Jail and to pay a
fine of $1,000. In case the fine is not paid,
the sentence is to extend over another
four months. Mr.. Chaugan will go di-
rectly to jail, without appeal. His at
torney pleaded in his behalf that the loss
of the city's money was due to its
wretched financial system and to Mr..
Chaugan's lack of rigid business quail
ties but not to any intention of dishon-
esty. The court evidently took these
matters into consideration in imposing
such light sentence.
