INCREASED GOLD RECEIPTS.

The Denver News of March 30 says:
The books at the Denver branch mint
were closed yesterday for the first quar-
ter OF the year, the gain over the cor
responding quarter in 1898 exceeding IS
per cent, which is a surprisingly good
record considering the extensive and
persistent snow blockade in several of
the gold producing districts. In silver,
lead and copper, owing to the reduced
cost and better prices, the gain is larger
than that shown for gold. Following
are the mint's gold deposits by months:

shows his honesty to his employers by
putting forth every effort to turn
out the very best work. Such men are
a joy forever in printing Office, or in
