The Zinc and Lead Mining SEN
satiOn at PIeasantOn
Reaches Fever Heat eWith a
Strike Of Rich Ore.
is 80 PER CENT PURE.
Found Almost at Grass Roots
and Easy of Access.
Stock I'm the Company is Not
For Sale.

Pleasanton, April 12.--The greatest
sensation in the zinc and lead mining
in this vicinity was created yesterday
when the miners took out over 400
pounds of lead ore from one of the
mines which will run nearly 80 per cent
pure. The ore was. found at a depth
of sixty feet and in a drift only few
feet from the way of the shaft. The
vein or deposit uncovered appears to be
large and the ore as fine as ever seen.
The find has caused great excitement
and stock in the company can not be
had at any price.
The other companies are pushing the
work on new shafts and drills are go
ing fast. Nearly all the land in the field
has been leased and prospectors have to
suitcase to get ground. A delegation
from Foster, Mo, was over today and
will at once organize company and go
to work. Every train brings strangers
to town who come to investigate or to
prospect Crowds are coming and going
to the mines all the time. One of the
miners say they can easily take out
Jumps of lead ore that will weigh over
100 pounds that is almost pure.

AID FOR STRIKERS.
Committee of Mine Workers Ask AS
sistance For Miners In Arkansas.

N B. TeasdaIe of Weir City, D. NJ
Anderson and John Wilson of Anderson
1. T., and Thomas Sweeney of Hunting
ton, Ark, are in Topeka soliciting aid
for the striking miners in those regions.
They are representatives of the United
Mine Workers of America, and are
working principally among the trades
unions.
They say that there are about 5000
miners out in the district, partially the
result of strikes and partially from
lockouts. The trouble began over the
refusal of the operators to recognize
the mine workers organization. The
organization formulated a scale of
wages, but the operators refused to
comply with it, and this brought on a
strike in some of the mines. That was
the first of February. Other complica-
lions led to lockouts in some of the
mines, so that on March 1 there were
5000 men out. AS a result. there is
considerable suffering, and the commit
tee which is now in Topeka is soliciting
aid for the sufferers.
G. c. Clemens, who is always ready
to do anything for the miners. is accom-
panying the committee and saying a
good word for them whenever he can.
Mr.. Teasdale says that they have just
been to Leavenworth, but received the
cold shoulder over there. The trades
assembly appointed a man to assist
them in soliciting, but he refused to do
so, and they accomplished but little.

REVOLUTIONARY POWDER.

[FrOm New Orleans Times-Democrat ]
The man that sharpened shoe pegs at
both ends and sold them for wheat was
a genius, but he has his equal in Mex
leo, If one is to believe the story told
by a Central American now stopping in
New Orleans for political reasons. 1t
appears that some months ago one of
the habitual revolutionary hare-ups
was on the tapiS in one of the beauti-
fully belligerent little "presidentiopO-
talitieS" that masquerade under the I'll
tie of republics. A couple of hundred
men marshalled in opposition to the
government, SWOre solemn OathS and
met nightly in an abandoned hacienda
at the entrance to a swamp. Enthusi-
asm was plentiful, but arms were scarce,
so a purse was made up and a pur-
chasing agent appointed, two other
agents, of course, being sent along to
watch the purchasing agent and hold
down the dimensions of his cigar bill.
The agents proceeded, not to New Or
leans, as is their wont, but to Mexico
where, in due time, cargo of powder
was delivered to them and after in
spection, was shipped to the neighbor-
hood of the revolutionary headquarters.
A signal gun was mounted on a roman
tic hilltop, and when the day and hour
arrived, the field marshal of the revolu-
tionary army touched q match to the
fuse of the piece. There was no re-
sponse The marshal used all the
matches in his silver matchbox and all
the Oaths in the Spanish dictionary, but
the gun refused to fire. An investigation
of the war department followed, and
more nor less than mahogany sawdust,
which had been vigorously stirred up
with powdered graphite to give it the
proper color and appearance

One of the cheering signs of the times
comes from Kansas, where in one of
the minor towns women have been
chosen to manage municipal affairs.
The male population of that state has
made such a muddle of law making
and administration that it is worth
while to try petticoat government in

And this from a paper published in a
city with its water scandal and typhoid
epidemic due to rascaIly officials; and
dn a state where the voters condone the
robbery of the state treasury and have
not the manhood and decency to punish
the guilty parties as they deserve-a
state which is unable to elect an hon
est man to the United States senate,
and whose legislative halls are reeking
with bribery and corruption.

CARNEGIE SELLS REALTY.
In Four Months He Has Made Profit
of 100 Per Cent on an Investment
of S4OO.OOO

New York, April 12.-Andrew Carnegie
yesterday sold the block front of vacant
lots on Fifth avenue, between Ninety
first and Ninety-second streets, for
about 100000. The property, which, in
Guiding the lots on the streets, COM
prises 13 lots, was bought by Mr.. Car
negie four months ago for about $780,
900. Mr.. Carnegie also bought at that
time the block front between Ninetieth
and Ninety-first streets, and announced
his intention of building a house for
himself on the lower block, converting
the upper one into private park.
The phenomenal increase in value of
property on Fifth avenue has probably
brought about the present sale. The
names of the buyers are withheld by
the brokers for the present, but it is
said that they are two well known res
idents of this city, who will erect houses
for themselves on the corner plots.

ROMANCE ENDS IN TRAGEDY
Spanish Love Affair Begun at Annap-
oils Ended In Madrid.

Washington, April 12.-Through diplo-
matte channels comes from Madrid the
story of a tragedy which had its be-
ginning in a romance at Annapolis last
year.
When Cervera and the Spanish naval
officers were brought to the Maryland
capital as prisoners, among those who
became interested in them was a girl
named Delphine Addison. She was
from Baltimore, and was on visit
to relatives when the prisoners arrived
A Irritation with a Spanish lieutenant
led to an engagement. When the Span
ish officers went home, Miss Addison
expected a summons to join her lover
and become his wife. She heard Moth
ing from him, left her home and made
her way to Madrid. At the marine office
she was told that the lieutenant was in
Cadiz. There she found him, but he
repudiated the engagement. The Amer
lean girl returned to Madrid, borrowed
a pistol and killed herself in a room on
the Gale de MOntera.

FOR FREE GARDENS.
The Industrial Federation Helping
Poor People to Raise "Garden Stuff"

The poor people of Topeka will all have
gardens if the Topeka industrial Fedora
ton can bring it about. A business meet
ing of the federation was held in the Y
NJ c. A. parlors to devise ways and
means for extending it's list of benefac-
tons
The object of the federation is to secure
vacant lots for gardening purposes and
then giving the poor of the city garden
seed and the necessary implements to care
for the gardens A supply of seed has
been secured from Washington, but it is
not nearly enough, and implements are
scarce. To supply these and to secure
seed potatoes, the federation has decided
to give an entertainment at the Crawford
in the near future. The churches will
also be asked to take up collections for
the same purpose.
The real estate men have donated the
use of many vacant lots. but they have
not been listed yet They will be soon,
and will then be ready for allotment.
The federation now has about 40 mem
bers. DR.. Palmer is president. Rev. NJ.
c. Long secretary and Judge Guthrie is
treasurer. Mr.. Long is absent now and
Gracia Hart is acting secretary
In North Topeka alone So families have
been reported wanting to make gar
dens. and in the eastern part of Topeka
there are as The rest of the city has not
been reported

ton will soon give the Modocs and Frank

be furnished by the Commonwealth club

DIAMOND CAMP STORIES.
(From the London MALL


1.-THE most remarkable thing about dia-
mond mining is the insignificant result in
point of bulk of many years of working
by an army of men, Thus spoke to a
Daily Mail representative an old miner
who has spent some years at Kimberley
and on the Vaal river
Although he continued, "the Kimber-
ley mine has been daily worked by never
less than 10000 men for a period of nearly
thirty years. all the diamonds that have
been discovered could be comfortably
packed in an ordinary trunk or box.
In other words, the equivalent of the
for a whole year is single cubic yard of
diamonds, which might be slowed away

the examiner, there were Some remark
able examples of luck, good and bad. In
one case a man knew well came into the
diggings with few hundred pounds and,
hiring half a dozen Kaffirs, began work
of the mine. For two three months he
and his assistants toiled hard without dis
covering a single diamond, and finally my
friend abandoned his claims at Kimberley
in disgust.
He had barely gone when a Scotchman
appeared on the scene and. stalking out
the abandoned claims, commenced work
al work three days when he found at the
bottom of his sieve magnificent white
diamond without flaw and weighing near
ly an ounce This stone he promptly sold
for $4,000, while it's admitted value was a
least twice this sum
There was a still more astonishing case
of luck at the same time on the Naal
river. where a down-at-heels miner made
a fortune in five weeks. He had small
claim, little larger than half tennis
court, for which he paid a license of 80
shillings month, and his mining equip
ment consisted of an old pick and spade,
a second hand sieve and two tubs
The miners the adjoining claims
ported the worst Of luck: indeed his own
claim had been abandoned in despair by
several predecessors Nothing daunted,
the new chum commenced work hopefully.

BETTING ON NUMBERS.
New Amusement For the Spectators
In the London Exchange.

London, April 12.-The weeks chief
gambling was done over the new cleo
trio call board erected in the Stock Elk
change. Formerly stentorian waiter
shouted out the names of brokers whose
clients were waiting outside. Now an
experimental board has been erected.
1t is covered with white ground glass
with squares on which are black figures
from one to so, representing that num-
Der of firms. When brilliant electric
light shines behind a figure represent
tative of that firm knows that a client
is waiting.
The idle brokers Immediately saw
speculative possibilities. A bank was
formed, and odds at fist of A to 1 were
offered against a particular number.
Then it was seen that certain numbers
showed frequently and the odds against
them were shortened. A chance on odd
or even numbers showing is quoted at
even money, but the favorites are most
ly odd, and the bookies are now asking
a shade in their favor. AS the call
board is proving a success from the
point of view of the Stock Exchange ar
rangements it's uncertainties are sure to
provide constant opportunity for specu-
latiOn.
