colersdo's Cold Lead.

According to the report of the
Director Of the Mint, just issued,
Colorado ranks first among the
states in gold production. Its gold
output in the calendar year 1898
was S23,I95, 800, as compared
with SI5,637,9oo for California.
South Dakota ranks third, with
IS, 600, 700, and Montana fourth,
with IS, Ia6, goo. The aggregate
gold output of the country for 1898
was S64, 463, 900 as against S57.-
$4,000 in 1897, a gain Of little
over 81, 900, 900. The gain in 1897
over 1896 was 81, 900, 900, and that
Of 1896 over 1895 was 81, 900, 900.
After holding a long lead over
all other states for many years,
California has lost its primacy.
Along until 1897 California was
first, but in that year Colorado
stepped to the front by lead OF
about 81, 500, 900. This margin
was broadened to about 81, 500,
900 in 1898. There is reason to
believe that the lead will be fur
ther increased in 1899. Colorado.
ans are predicting gold yield of
$50, 900, 900 for their state this
year, and the growth which it has
made in recent years gives some
plausibility to that estimate. Like
the entire list of mining states,
California is increasing its gold
output as compared with few
years ago. but its gain is slow COM
pared to that OF Colorado.
Colorado's record in gold pro-
duction in the past few years has
been notably encouraging. 1t is
now just forty years since the first
important gold discovery was made
IN Colorado, though it is over
ninety years since James Pursley
told Lieut.. Zebulon M. Pike in
Santa Fe that he had picked up
gold in the beds of the streams in
past 81 what - now the Centennial
state. But even after the diseov-
cry, in 1889, Colorado did not for
= long time begin to take prom

ducing localities. II fact, not un-

gold fields. Previous to that time,
and for many years, silver mining
took up most OF its energies in this
direction. In 1891 Colorado's
gold product was only $4,000, 900.
This was just after the enactment
o. the Sherman law, when the con-
tinuance of silver purchases by the
government, for an indefinite num-
Der OF years seemed to be assured.
In 1894, the year after the Pur-
chases stopped. the gold output
had increased to s949r,5I4. Sill.
yer production began TO decline,
but gold production began to in
crease. II has been increasing
rapidly ever since. In 1898 it was
three times as great as it was in
1893, the year when the silver pur-
chases were stopped. After all,
the closing OF the treasury TO sill
yer absorption was good thing
for Colorado, although its states
men at that time said that this act
would impoverish their state. BY
compelling its miners to turn their
attention to gold production the
anti-silver legislation of 1893 rem
dered notable service to Colorado.

Mr. Depew does not remember when
he first met Commodore Vanderbilt. II
must have been early in the Cos, aud the
meeting must have been a casual one
Just such a meeting as any rising young
public man might have with rising
railroad manager. The two We're only
speaking acquaintance until 1866, and.
so far as Mr.. Depew knew, the COM
modore had never taken any special
interest in him. But this was a mistake
one day William II. Vanderbilt, the COM
modores son. and father of William X,
went to Peekskill. where the young law
yer was stil pracdcing his profession,
and said. without much preface:
"The commodore wants TO see YOU He
has an idea that IL would be good thing
for you 90 enter the service of the railroad
as counse. He wants some one he can
trust"
So Depew journeyed to New York and
called on the commodore. The latter ex.
planned that he had plenty of legal coun-
sci, such as Il was. and that
much of it was plenty good
enough. But most of the law

city of from twenty to thirty thousand
shells, ii is put in to the shore, where the
cargo Is landed and piled high on the
beach for the fierce rays of the sun TO
assist in the decomposition of the dead
fish, so that the pearls may be the more
easily obtained.
During the cleaning and washing pro-
cess, great care is exercised in order to
discover the loose pearls, which, being
nearly all perfect spheres, are the most
valuable for stringing or necklace pur-
poses; after which the shells are examin-
ed for those that may remain attached

seen in jewelers. windows.
Pearls of value are seldom discovered
in shells under four yeare of age-the age
eight years, it would seem, being the ex-
IRENE limit of pearl mussel longevity.
How Pearls Are Classified.
AS soon as the pearls have been OBJ
tanned from the find they are classified
by being passed through a succession of
little cells or baskets" as the latter are
called, the holes in the chambers being
smaller and smaller until the last for the
reception of the seed" pearls is reached
Having been sized in this manner, the
pearls are then sorted as 10 color, weigh
ed and their value appraised.
The pearls found in the Sulus are re-
markable for their fine white color and
soft irridescent sheen, and up till the
present have found their principal mar
ket in London. but now that the arcni-
peiago has become an outlying terri
tory of the United States one may natu-
rally expect that these most chastely beau
