Many miners throughout the
country contend that an original
locator cannot relocate a mining
claim upon which he had failed to
perform tn" necessary amount of
assessment work. A Utah Judge
has pas7ed on the question and
holds that any citizen Of the United
States can make a location on a
forfeited claim, whether he be the
original locator or a new discoverer
The fact is that the location of a
mining claim simply invests the
locator with possessory right and a
REIMBURSEMENT of this right causes
title to same to revert to the gov
ernment, after which any person
with the necessary qualification
can stake a claim upon the lode.

People who insist on vegetable
diets will be interested in learning
that investigations carried on at
the London 200" have disclosed
the fact that the percentage of
tubercular diseases is far greater
among carnivorous animals. AS a
whole, beasts ffer nearly 80 per
cent. more severely from tubercu-
losis than birds; but the most not
iceable difference is that between
the meat eaters and vegetable feed
ers. Some of the vegetarian theor-
les may have to be revised.

Now the question is, has the Cour

matter, or have they taken up the
cudgel for the companies for just
what there is in it. The latter

Calumet & Hecla copper mine of

the Calumet paid in dividends T..
0n0,000s, or $50 per cent on the

this is the largest percentage of
profit ever paid by mining com
p,nies, but a look over the divi

Furnaces have been added for burning
the garbage collected from the dwellings
which could not be used for fuel, and
this extra expense, which was, however,
comparatively triiling, was more than
offset by saving the cost of hauling the
garbage to the barges.
The experiment has been so successful
that other London parishes are planning
TO adopt the same method, aud 10 Is CON
ildently predicted that in a few years the
entire city will be lighted by electricity

streets. London is paved with wooden
blocks and small boys are employed with

walls from daylight till dark to keep them
clean The pans are dumped in large
sheet-iron receptacles, which are emptied
twice day into carts. In Shoreditch
parish each dwelling is supplied by the
vestry with two sheetiron buckets. one
for Kitchen slops and the other for paper,
dust and other Combustible waste from
the household. The buckets are enptiod
