$3S,OOO,OOO In Gold.

The Salmon and Clearwater placer
mines in Idaho, according to Wells Far
go Express Company's receipts, yielded
in gold '!ust and nuggets from thirty
eight to forty million dollars between
1860 and "a. Notwithstanding the diff
ficullics OF transportation in those days,
rcmotencss from civilization, and hostile
Indians, the fame of the rich gold
placers around Elk City, Florence, Orc
Elmo and Millcrsburg reached the OUT
side world, and a stampede marked the
opening of the sixties Bancroft, the
historian, long ago expressed the belief
that these placer mines were but the out
skirts or washings OF richer central de-
post, and almost simultaneously with the
recent completion of the Northern Paci-
fic's Lewiston, Idaho, extension from Spo-
kane, comes the announcement that pros
pcctors have discovered immense lodges
of gold-bearing quartz in the Buffalo
Hump range lying between the Salmon
and the South Fork of the Clearwater,
along which latter stream the Northern
Pacific is now building its Clearwater
Line. For a map folder giving fuller i'll

Religion of Miles Standish.

We are afraid Miles Standish will
hereafter secure but scant mention and
praise from the average Protestant pull
pit, says the Sacred Heart Review. It
has been claimed repeatedly by Catholics
that this bold warrior was OF their faith,
but such claims have been contested by
most Protestants and disregarded by
others. Now, however, that Protest
ant, Mr.. r. S. Forbes, admits in the
Outlook that, after considering both
sides of the question, 1--WE may con-
cludc that the captain always considered
himself Catholic" we fear that Stan
dish will hereafter be taboocd by the
general Protestant preacher. Mr.. Forbes
qualities his admission by claiming that
the valiant captain was not an over
Jealous Catholic; but whether that claim
be correct who shall say?

Sage of Nininger treated it in new
way, and allowed his exuberant fancy to
lead him into all sorts OF curious specu-
lations. He answered the question in
the affirmative, and based his conviction,
in part, on his own experiments and ex-
periences in the mysteries of spiritual
ism. Then he SCARED away to other
worlds, and, when he returned, an
nounced the discovery of rational be-
ings, heirs to the same Immortality, on
the unseen planets revolving about the
countless stars in the galaxy OF the heav-

Now that commerce rules the world

take advantage of the opportunity? The
Philippines front the coast of China for
distance of 1900 miles, and what ma
ton is better qualified than ours to rule
in that quarter Of the globe? 1t has
been objected that our constitution
stands in the way, but our constitution
has always adapted itself to expansion.
Long cheers.) Our position with re-
gard to Cuba is to sponsor free and
safe government there, but until that
government is established, whether in
one year, ten or one hundred years, it is
our duty to maintain order. With all
the facts staring me in the face,

A Few Valuable Suggestions From
A Hibernian.
Editor Irish Standard:

Editor Irish Standard:
Will you kindly permit me to trespass
on your space to make few suggestions
to the many divisions OF the A. O. H.
in Minnesota? AS member OF the Or
der and one having its interests at heart,
Tor truly it is grand and noble organi-
cation, | would like to make this hum
bic suggestion to all the members: Next
month will take place the annual cleo
ton of officers in this state as we'll as
all over the United States, Canada, etc,
that having been the decision OF the ar
bitrator, Bishop McFaul, and adopted
by the recent national convention at
Trenton, N ].
Let each and every one OF us take an
interest in the selection OF men who
will work cncrgctically to upbuld this
grand organization, and OF men who
will attend faithfully to the duties i'm
posed upon them. No man should ac-
ccpt an office unless he sees his way
clear to fully perform all the duties in
cumbent upon him, for the confidence
thus placed in man by his fellow-mcm-
bcrs is worthy OF the deepest considcra-
ton, for the responsibility is great. The
coming year ought to see great in
crease i'll membership, and it will by all
working unitedly together, for the or
ganization and the cause to which it is
devoted is worthy the best cndcavors of
every true Hibcrnian.
Each and every member should also
assist the officers in the work which
they have elected them to perform, for
1T is a great deal more than many OF
the members realize, and by little as
sistancc and a hearty cooperation with
them it will be OF material assistance to
them; besides being of great encourage
mcnt. Another matter that divisions
should attend to is the literary feature

What are we to expect of boys who are
educated in the streets, who associate
in gangs. whose literature is blood and
thunder, whose amusements are fur
nished at the cheap and nasty concert
hall and whose art stares at them from
the coalyard fences? Home influence.
indeed! 1t is not the quality of the
home influence that is to blame. but the
total absence of it. The popular in
clination in the cities is to condone the
mischief of the street boy on account of
his size. He is virtually encouraged to
be vicious. Very seldom indeed does a
stalwart policeman undertake to arrest
young pickpocket without being as

Judge Aspinal can help to correct
this evil by inflicting punishment upon
these boys sternly and not by hunting
for the homes to send them back to.
