SUCCESS IN LEASING.
System Is Popular in the Thriving Can

System Is Popular In the Thriving Camps.
The surest and cheapest way to de-
velop Il property is to lease it. This
may be accounted for in several ways:
1t IS quickest because lessees will work
with much more zeal than day labor
ers. Lessees work over hours: study
the character of rock opened up; follow
stringers. compare the sides of the
shaft. and in this manner very often
determine their proximity to an ore
shoot. Hired labor works with utter
indifference as TO the character of rock !:
their only object is to render II good
weeks service and secure their weekly
wages.
As d result of such indifference. very
often rich Oreshoot has been passed
by II fraction of n yard. yet not dscov.
cred until some industrious hard-work-
ing lessee takes hold of the property
1t Is cheapest for the owners. because
the discovery of the shoot with neces-
sary workings for its development is
worth TO them more than all that will
he taken out during tine life of an or
dinary lease. Lessees are their own
managers. thus the expense of main
tanning an office: paying salaries to II
manager and clerk. etc. are not neces-
sary. They reduce mining to Il bust.
ness basis where every dollar accom-
plishes something. No unnecessary cx-
pense incurred.
1t is conceded by well informed men
that the lessees made Cripple Creek.
These tireless workers operating ten to
fourteen hours IL day have made pro-
ductive mines out of I5 per cent. of the
better properties in the camp. They
made such mines as the Hull City
Placer. IIalfMoon. New Zealand,
Union. Specimen. Kimberly. Moon-An-
chor, May Queen. Orphan Belle. Lille.
Last Dollar. Gould. Work. Jack Pot.
Findlcy, Pinnacle, Acacia, and great
many others.
In fact. all over the state where you
find the most active districts, there
you will find the most leasers. Even
more. properties might be opened II the
owners were more reasonable In their
demands. They should know that
what lessees take out in one or two
years amounts to nothing in cOmpnri-
son to the development they will do.

that stamps as applied to gold mining

of commissioners of the National Lin

for the restoration of the monument
here to the Culver Construction Com

$94, 800 and the lowest.
The Culver company will go to work
at once on the restoration of the mon
ument. 1t must be finished according
to contract by November 1, 1900. A
temporary hall for the keeping of the
Lincoln trophies now being kept in the

disposition will be made with the bod

Tod Lincoln, has not been decided up
on. Probably Il temporary vault will
be erected and a watchman employed
to guard it.
State Superintendent of Public In

contract, said:
'The monument, when completed,
will be as near like the present one as
possible. Every piece of material now
in the moument found available will

DISADVANTAGES OF PoLlreNEss
On Hamburg Street Cars 1t Is Unwlse to
Surrender Seat to = Lady


An American who has just returne,
from a summer trip to Europe says he
found 1t more difficult to be polite In
the city of Hamburg than in any other
place in Europe. There the most chiv-
alrous man has to think twice before
giving up his seat in n car to lady
as he may be turned off the car for his
politeness. 1t seems that the Ham
burg trolley will seat, according to
size, twenty to twenty eight persons,
ten to fourteen on each side In addi-
ton, four persons are allowed on the
front and five persons on the back
platform. When the car is full the
conductor hangs out n sign "Besetzt,"
which means occupied" and 1t is ab-
solutely forbidden to take on another
passenger until someone gets off the
car. Sometimes, while the conductor
Is in front collecting fares a lady will
step on the car. which is already ''occu-
pied" AS there is no conductor on
hand to prevent her, the lady steps in
side, and the gentleman who may offer
her a seat comes out and takes his
stand on the platform. When the con
ductor, after going his rounds, returns
to his post, he promptly requests the
gentleman to step off the car. as he
has forfeited his seat and the car is
fully occupied" Should he refuse to
leave the car he is put Off. The police
men on the streets are instructed TO
watch the cars sharply, and if they
find n car carrying even one more pas
senger than is the proper complement,
the conductor is fined 10 cents, which
is. paid to a charity fund of the street
railway company.

RINEHART's INDIAN PICTURES.

In the summer OF 1898 the Govern
ment Indian Bureau invited all tribes
Of Indians in this country to send dele
gates to an Indian Congress, and they
gathered from far and near with their
ponies and tepees and gaudiest trap
pings in the Exposition Grounds at
Omaha. Never before had there been
and never again will there be such q
gathering. There were about five hun
dred Of them, some partly civilized, but
the greater portion picturesque in
original savagery. Strange as 1t may
seem at this late day MANY of the In
dians declared that before coming to
Omaha they had no idea what multi
tudes of white men there were or how
hopeless it was to try to stand against
them. This was probably the last time
that SO complete and spectacular a
view of the North American Indian
will be possible and those who had the
privilege of witnessing 1t are to be
counted fortunate. At the time of the
Indian Congress prominent pho
tographer obtained permission to take
the photographs of the most noted
chiefs present and succeeded IN obtain
ing a collection which never will be
equaled. Mr.. Rinehart, the phi hotograrh-
er, copyrighted all these pictures and
placed in a few art stores some hand
