RICHES Of
CAPE NOME
What a Montana Man Says of
the New Gold Fields.

In Gold During the Next Year--Living

VIM. Henderson,. formerly a we'll
known resident of Madison county,
where he was engaged in mining for
many years returned to Butte y~ester-
day from Cape Nome, where he has spent
the summer. Mr.. Henderson co uld not
be induced to state the exact amount of
wealth he brought back with him but
expressed himself as being pleased with
his trip. After attending to some min
ing matters near Norris, Mr.. Henderson
will return to the famous Alaska dig
gings.
while there may be some exaggerated
stories told of Cape Nome," said Mr..
Henderson to-day, the country is strict
ly speaking one of the richest gold bear
ing districts in the world. 1t is conf
IDENTIFY expected that the output of gold
from Cape Nome mex year will exceed
$10,O 900, 900. Why we get nuggets up
there that carry from 5000 to $500 in gold
and pans of dirt averaging $40 are not
at all
The mines are situated about five
miles from the town, in Anvil, Glacier,
Snow, Buster and Dexter guiches. Snow
gulch is only about a mile long and has
Snow, Anvil and Dexter gulches yielded
over a million dollars during the past
summer and about the same amount was
taken from the beach mines. About
700 or 500 men were employed in the
gulches and over 1000 men worked on
the beach Mines
"Where did the gold GOMEZ from?"
Mr.. Henderson was asked.
THAT is a difficult question to answer.
The gold is much coarser near the shore,
which might lead one to believe that it
came from the sea because the finest

from the shore. There are two or three
pay-streaks. The gold is found in a
stratum of ruby sand. The bedrock
consists of a stratum OF clay.
Living expenses are high. A sdnare
meal costs 50. a plain beefsteak $50. A
small house rents for $3.50 per month.
Beef is IS cents a pound, -four 500 per
and wood $40 a cord. Wages
are high, miner receiving $40 per day.
The beach diggings have been staked
out for miles. the pay streak extending
about As miles along the beach. The
farther out in the sea the miners go the
richer the diggings. One dredging
plant is in operation at the mouth of the
creek and is turning out large nuanti-
ties of gold. The sea is SO rough that
it is doubtful if dredging plants as at
present constructed can be operated suc-
cessfully.
About a month 6 there was another
stampede from Nome to Cape York and
Cape Prince Of Wales. located about 100
miles north. but I understand gold in
paying quantities was not discovered
there, except in a limited area"

THE CZARTNA'S LOVE STORY.

The Ear always loved his orphan cous-
in, and as they met somewhat frequently
he did not lack opportunity of discover
ing for himself that his love was reci-
procated. But there We're grave objec-
tons to the match, and the young lovers
had man, enemies. The Cars parents
opposed the union with all the emphasis
they could command. Princess Alix vas
a Lutheran and Nicholas belonged to the
Greek church. To Alexander III this
was almost a fatal objection to their
marriage, and everything was done tina
could be dom to convince the young heir
to all the Russias that he must accept
another bride. even Queen Victoria join
ed the little army arrayed against the
lovers. Princess Alix was her %favorite
granddaughter and she did not wish her
to change her religion or to face the per-
lis of the Russian throne. There was an
other serious objection, too. Both the
lovers We're delicate, and Alexander III
was naturally anxious that the throne
of Russia ould be occupied by his sons
son. AT last the obstinate Czarowitch
was sent on a NOyage round the world. it
being hoped that in the constant change
of scene he wou forget his love and
come back prepared to do as he was bid.
The love Which Il bound Nicholas to
his orphan cousin was not, however, a
thing that could be put off in a new coun-
try, an the heir apparent went back to
Russia more determined than ever not to
marry unless he loved. The voyage a
greatly improved his health, so that part
of the objection was removed.
But there still remained the religious
objection. and Nicholas pressed his suit.
He was fortunate in securing two power
full allies-the then Duchess of Edinburgh
and the Grand Duchess Serge, sister of

SPORT IN HARD LUCK.

sThis advertisements remarked an old
gambler, pointing to a notice published
by a man who had lost a set OF false
teeth, reminds me of the experience of a
gambler in Denver some years ago VINO
had to pawn his grinders for a stake.
1t was a cold winter night and l was
bucking the games myself in a big Den
yer establishment. when [ happened to
! notice his pawning event. A stranger
from the east was playing faro, but lost
so heavily that he changed to roulette.
At this game the last of his bunch had
disappeared before he knew it. He felt
in his clothes. but found nothing, not
even a watch. He had loaned his fine
overcoat to a friend earlier in the night
with the promise that it was to be~re-
turned by midnight, but the time had
passed and the coat was not there. All
at once the gambler threw his hands to
his face. A thought struck him.
gents, he said. lis there a pawnshop
for gamblers near here?
9TH faro dealer told him where to find
one half way down the block, and the
information was added that the owner
had a soft spot in his heart for gamblers
in hard luck.
THE eastern sport walked into the
pawnshop a moment later and asked
the owner how much he could advan
on a fine set of teeth. The shopkeeper
hesitated for a moment, but finally con-
scented to loan $40 on them. The articles
We're carefully put away, and the gamb-
Ter walked back with d $50 bill. He
bought a stack of chips and during the
night played with remarkable luck. BY
5 o'clock he was $500 ahead, after getting
back the 81, 600 lost before the dea With
the pawnbroker. After he quit playing
he had to sit about for three hours until
the pawnshop opened.
"That same winter in Denver contin-
ued the old man, II saw other pawning
experiences which taught me that the
gamblers best friend was the man with
the tree balls sign. 1t was in this same
house that l saw a sport pawn a $10C
overcoat ten times in as many hours
The sport was playing craps, n he
seemed crazy about that kind of game
The first time he went broke he stepped
out to the same paWnbroker and hook
ed the overcoat for 500. He came back
got a good streak. and sent the boy Out
with 500 and the ticket to redeem it. He
played for a while and was broke again
A second trip was made to the shop, with
the same result. And then a little latel
he was strapped. This juggling between
the table and the pawnshop was contin
ued for hours, though the sport finally
quit when he had the coat and $3.50 il
the pocket.

There were honest msn, traitors and
just natural fools. Take your choice.
The Republican State Convention of
this year is a part of the history of the
Republican party of Nevada now and
seemingly the reading of the history
greatly dlsturbs some OF the men who
had generous share OF the making of
that selfsame history.
Well il they have consciences they
should look for disturbances. Unholy
alliances lie not well with honest con-
sciences. But their actions at the time
imputed rather sad lack of the essence
of the moral system and superabnnd-
ance OF nasty politics. The spirits of
the past rise up and will not down and
the ghost dance is not alone for the
Indian.
The history of that day was written
in the scofulous blood OF the Republican
party and it will further disease and
stick whenever the healthy rank and file
turn to those pages. Ii those men claim
honesty, with it they must adopt ASST
ninity. That they cringe at criticism and
quail before the judgement bar OF public
opinion does not show them to be asses
alone.
The delegates who went to that con-
vention in the vital interests of Republi-
canism and the Republican party have
dissected the doinys OF that day and
whetEer those doing were lraitorous or
asslnine or both they are long ago de-
termined.
~
The succnlpnt mushroom attains Its
perfection in rotten manure; the juicy
clam develops best in the black mire;
the luscious cranberry grows fastest in
the sodden bog; the choicest spareribs
are from the hoy that wallows in deepest
swill the parasite is healthier than that
OF which it sucks; mankind has higher
regard for the louse than it has for the
lousy; Mary Magdalene is favored
angel in heaven ard there is still hope
OF other prostitutes.
| Ali men are fools at times in their
lives. They are made that way, 1t
| depends upon the times whether they
are fortunate or unfortunate. In this
case it is fortunate to he fool and
unfortunate to be otherwise. There is
soulful absolution for the imbeciles and
severest condemnation for the traitors.
The wantons worked for hire and the
fools followed because they knew no
better. The former are still brazen the
latter are now penitent.
But SO are We all honorable men.

LUCKY ACCIDENT.
How the Art of Printing from stons
Was Discovered.

How the Art of Printing from Stone
Was Discovered.
One of the greatest discoveries ever
made was the result OF pure accident.
1t was In the year 1896. The citizens
Of Munich had just witnessed the first
performance OF Mozart's opera, don
Juan" The theater was deserted by
all except one man. Alois Sennefelder,
who. after making a round OF inspec-
ton in the building to see that there
was no danger Of fire, went to his room
to stamp the tickets OF admission for
the following day. When he entered
his room he had three things In his
hand-a polished milestone, which he
had bought for sharpening his razor; a
ticket-stamp, still moistened with
printing ink, and check on the treas
urer Of the theater for his weekly
salary. AS he placed the latter on
the table gust OF wind swept 1t high
up In his room, and then deposited II
in basin OF water. Sennefelder dried
the paper as well as he could, and
then weighted It down with the whet-
stone. upon which he had carelessly
placed the printing stamp. When he
returned to his room the following
morning, he was astonished at seeing
the letters printed upon the dampen-
ed paper. A thought came to him. He
wondered whether by some such means
he could not simplify his work of con-
tinually copying the songs OF the
chorus. He went out and purchased a
large stone. commenced making ex-
periments. and. as we all know, final
ly discovered the art OF printing from
stone-lithography.
