Many Of the holders OF Home Mining
stock have been expecting an early
dividend. but In this they will be dis
appointed. says the Leadville Miner.
The Home Mining Company at the end
OF the unwatering OF the downtown
mines, was u good many dollars In the
red: the unfortunate accident at the
Son Air adding materially to this. AZ
ter the mines were unwatered there
was great deal Of cleaning out to be
done before any ore whatever could be
reached. Since then all this Indebted
ness has been wiped out and q goodly
reserve fund il on hand.
The drifts run in the rich Pcnrose ore
body show It to continue In depth be-

1t without serious loss, unless the shaft
was deepened. A winze will probably
be sunk on the ore In the near future,

pinain east drift a fine body of sand
and chloride ore has been opened up
In the last few days, and an upraise
has been made which has now pene-

teen feet.
The north drift from this shaft is
now In some 100 feet and has excellent
indications for ore. A large water

rose, to the Bon Air. in which large
pumps will be placed. and will make
sinking the Penrose shaft a much cas-
Ter proposition.
~, The ore shipped from this shaft and
the Starr shaft will pay the operating
expenses Of the company, while the en-
tire output OF the Penrose goes into the
reserve fund. but no dividends will be
paid before the first of the year. and
possibly not Just then. The company
has ample time In which to extract
these immense ore bodies. and II il

have this done MS cheaply as possible.
and the development work Of the COM
pany Is now being shaped to this end.

Undoubtedly much Of the rock put

tquestion for the mine manager to de-

ground or on the surface?
In some mines the barren rock oc-

xditions are such that the waste may be
left standing as pillars, which to some
extent help In supporting the ground.
In others this cannot be done, and the
waste must be mined together with the
ore. Here, again, the question of sort
ing must be determined by existing
conditions. II the waste occurs In

The Age-Herald presents to its readers
this morning picture of the front elevation
of st. vincent's hospital to be erected by
the Sisters of Charity in this city. There
are comparatively few people in Birmins-
ham who realize the magnitude of the work
that has been undertaken by these noble
women, who have already established tenn
porary headquarters and who are daily ad-
mlnistering to the relief of suffering human
ity.
The plans for the permanent quarters
which have just been completed by L. u.
Walter & Ullman, the architects, are COM
plete in every detail and cover the hospital
in it's entirety, which is estimated will cost
about $250,000.
Contractors have been asked for bids on
the construction of the administration
building and the northeast wing, which will

cents The wings will be four stories with
a basement, and will each be complete in
themselves, fitted with elevators, operating
rooms, lavaratories, kitchens. dining rooms
nurses and servants dorpatories, private
and general wards. closets, toilets and. in
fact, every thing necessary.
In the basement will be- located the en-
CINE rooms, coal cellars, laundries and stor-
age rooms The plans also provide for
chapel to be built in the rear of the admin
istration building.
The entire structure will be built of press
ed brick with white and red stone trim
mings and granate base. The cornices and
cupalo will be of copper, with complete
system of ventilation leading from the en-
tire building to the cupalo.
Messrs T. u. Walter & Ullman, the archi-
tects, will receive bids for the work up to
February 10, when the contract will be
awarded and the work commenced. The
hospital will be located on Enon Ridge,
about 600 feet west of the terminus of the
Fountain Heights car line, on a splendid lot
33Ox660 feet, with a south front.

BROKE THE EGG MARKET.
Cause of Lenten Excitement
IN SALEM.

Retail grocer. in Salem are still dis
cussing the way their egg market was
flurried not many days ago in the height
of the Lenten season, when eggs were
beginning to get scarcer and scarcer
and the price mounted little higher
daily. Just at this time Mrs. kirk
patrick from Bangor, Me-, arrived in
Salem to make new home. Her hus-
band, who was prosperous merchant
in the Pine Tree state, had sold out his
business to engage in another line in
the neighborhoodo of Salem. Their fami-
ly consisted of two lively boys.
Not long after Mrs. Kirkpatrick ar
rived she found the price of eggs to be
40 cents a dozen-an eXorbitant price in
Maine-with the prospects that they
would be still more costly. So she
wrote home to relatives and asked them
to send her few eggs at Bangor prices
20 cents n dozen, Her relatives were
generous and when the eggs arrived
Mrs, Kirkpatrick found herself con-
fronted with an entire case filled with
the best stock. "What shall we do with
them?" was the question of the hour in
the Kirkpatrick household that day.
The boys finally solved the problem.
After some pleading from them, their
mother gave them baskets and allowed
them to go out on the streets of Salem
peddling Maine eggs at 80 cents dozen.
The youngsters started at noon and in
two hours had sold out. The eggs were
brown and fine and went rs fast as the
housewives had sight of them. As
the eggs went, SO did the news. Before
many hours the information that eggs
of the best quality were selling uptown
at 80 cents, when the market price was
getting to be considered prohibitive,
reached the storekeepers. Agents went
about and soon discovered the cause of
the trouble.
To lower the price of the overdue eggs
in the stores would not have had the
slightest effect In the face of the su-
periority of the fresh Maine stock. The
dealers held meetings to try to find out
where the new eggs had come from, and
if it would be safe to try to buy up n lot
of them. The news spread further. The
agitation OF the marketmen betrayed
them. and brakeman on a Boston &
Maine train received tip. On his next
trip up to Maine he ordered box of
eggs sent to him in Portland, and on his
next trip but one back through Salem
he took them off into the station to ped
die them at IS cents. Although there
was, moi very much of crowd in the
station that day the eggs were sold be-
fore the train started and the brakeman
had the cash in hand. He telegraphed
for another case and went on to Boston.
That was the last straw. The next day
every grocery store in Salem was SELL
ing eggs at 32 cents, although mostly
at a loss.-Boston Transcript.

GLAZING VEGETABLES.
Onions and Carrots Are Easily Pre-
pared and May lie Used the
Year Round.

The French cooks possess the art of
cutting vegetables in dainty decorative
forms and glazing them. These glazed
vegetables are chiefly for decorative
purposes, but are also delicious to eat
The glazed vegetable is generally con-
sidered "fussy" thing to prepare, and
therefore the average housekeeper IN
this country usually takes little inter
est in its preparation.
