A MINERAL DISCOVERY
Defined by the Supreme Court of
Montana.

The Supreme Court OF Montana has
rendered a decision defining what con-
stitutes mineral discovery in the
meaning OF section 1920 OF the Revised
Statutes, which provides that no loca-
tion OF mining claim shall be made
until a vein or lode in discovered within
the limits of the claim located. The
Court holds that ''the finding Of miner
al in the rock constitutes the discOv-
cry. 1t is not necessary that the lode
or vein should contain mineral of such
q nature that practical minor, II he
encountered it. would feel justified in
following 1t up with the reasonable ex
pectation OF finding paying mineral.
Nor Is it required, under the statute, p"
adds the Court, that the paying min
aral necessary to justify the location OF
the claim should be found at the time
and place of discovery; but it is suffi-
Gent II the development OF the vein
showed that paying mineral exists with
Ia the limits OF the location. 1t never
was intended that the location OF min
ing claim should determine all the facts
before he would be entitled to valid
location. - II the Federal Land Depart
ment rulings had been governed by the
principle laid down in this decision
innch of the land which has been de-
clared "agricultural" in the Sierra
foothills because 1t had not been proved
to he mineral except Theoretically
would have been open, for presumption
as mineral lands.-S. F. Chronicle.
In connection with the above point,
IL might be well to add that the mining
law passed by the legislature OF this
State in 1899 requires that the discov-

ACROSS GREAT SALT LAKE.
The Southern Pacific to Shorten
Its Line.

1t was stated in the Salt Lake Trib-
une few days ago that the Southern
Pacific had surveyors out to locate a
cutoff across Great Salt Lake. 1t was
said that the plan was to build line ON
a tangent from Lucin to Ogden, which
would shorten the distance and elimin-
ate the heavy grades at PromOntory
and Kelton. Subsequent Developments
have proved that the important change
is certainty.
. IN the last few days two steam launcht S
have been unloaded at Lucin, and they
will be put on the lake and used by the
engineers in making soundings of depth
of water. The plan, which has been
talked about for years, is to run the
line OF railway from the station called
Lucin directly across the lake to Ogde a
touching the southern point of the
promontory as it stretches into the lake.
The lake is not thought to be over 20
feet deep at any point at which the road
will cross, and that depth can be piled
easily, tho water being such that decay
will be almost impossible.
The new route will be forty miles
shorter than the old route, and will be
without the heavy grades necessary in
going over Promontory hill. In oper-
ating trains over the new route one en-
CINE could haul fifty cars, while over
the present route it takes the power OF
four engines to haul twenty cars.
The trestles required on the straight
cutoff would be thirty-one miles from
west shore line to the promontory and
seven miles from promontory to Ogden,
or thirty eight miles in all. BY south
erly divergence to the promontery jut-
ting out from the west shore at Strong s
Knob TO the north promontory, the
length of the first trestle could be re-
dueed to eighteen miles or twenty I've
miles for the two.

MANUFACTURE OF MATCHES
Is One of the Largest and Most Important
of industries.

Is One of the Largest and Most Important
of industries.
The manufacture Of matches, trivial
as it may seem, is one of the largest
and most important existing. SO large
an amount of mor ey is invested in
their manufacture that in France it is
a Government monopoly and consid-
cradle portion of tie revenue of the
State is derived fror this source. The
yearly value of the matches made in
England alone is said to amount to
nearly Sl0,000000 CHI year, and that
the numbers that TIE makers turn out
daily exceed 00,OG9 600. In France
the Government m nopoly is let to
company for mi mum annual pay
ment of over $500 900, with a great
] increase if a certain number is ex-
/ ceeded. Among t. e largest factories
! in Europe are those of the Scandinav-
ian peninsula and England. In Ger
many, however, there are between 200
and 300 factories. OF the dangerous
material phosphorus, which is employ
ed in the manufacture, between 1000
and 1000 tons are annually consumed.
/ The general character of phosphorus
! is that of an exceedingly inflammable
substance, burning slowly in the open
air and shining with a luminous ap-
pearance in the dark. In this state it
is one of the most poisonous sub
/ stances known, less than two grains
/ having been known to cause the death
of an adult human being, and innu-
merable cases have occurred of chill
dren being poisoned by sucking the
/ ends of a few matches.
On the other hand, heated without
exposure to the air for some short time
the phosphorus changes into a red
powder, which is perfectly insoluble
in water, not com ustible and not i'm
the slightest degree poisonous. In
this latter state it IS mixed with othe1
substances and placed on the outside
of the boxes of what are termed safety
matches. These matches consist of
non-poisonous chemical materials that
will not ignite when struck on any or
binary surface, but are Immediately
set on fire by ru Ding on the box,
which is covered " n a preparation of
innocuous red pho hOrus.
But. unfortunate y, the public at
large prefers matches which will ignite
! when struck on a surface and the
manufacture of these is necessarily at
tended with risk to the workers, the
people who are most seriously affected
being the girls who pack the finished
matches in the boxes in which they are
sold. By practice their dexterity be-
comes so great that they almost invari-
ably take up in one hand the exact
/ number required

A traveller tells of treasure chambers
in Bagdad that rival the tales of the
arabian Nights" Among these null
ti-millionaires are the Sassoons, whose
banking firm exercises the functions
of a great power throughout Asia,

come Europeanized, having established
themselves in LONDON, and one of them
is married to E9thschild. A pass
port signed Sassooa is a safe conduct

When members 81 the queens fam
lily or any wandering German relatives
of high degree visit London and occu-
by apartments in Buckingham palace,
by invitation" they pay their board
just like common folks in a first-class
hotel. This prevents the sovereign
lady from having 800 much company
and makes things very pleasant for
the palace servants. The independence
it gives some of the royal guests is not
wholly appreciated by them but as the
queen early in her reign determined
on this economical course, her subjects
cannot justly complain of her exUaya-
gance 1t is a very expensive piece Of
pleasure, being a gsest of royalty, and

the proper length and size. The bark
is protected by wrapping of varnish-
