vein which is continuous in the sense
that the continuity or union of its
parts is absolute and uninterrupted.
Though continuity-of vein does not
preclude Identity of the vein, yet iden-
tity does not necessarily include COLI
tinuity in the exact sense just Itferr-
ed to. 1t becomes then a question of
fact to be decided by the jury, sub
ject to general rules, whether there
is that essential Identity and continu-
ity by which the vein can oe traced
through the surrounding rocks. The
true sense in which there must be a
continuity is a qualified one, ard not
an unqualified exact one defined ir-
respective of independent or physical
conditions found in mining. Identity
is essential and the vein must be con-
tinuous, but it's continuity may be in
terrupted even to the closure of the
vein without destruction of the iden-
tity, providing the extent oe the IN
terruption or closure does not pre-
vent the tracing of the lode or vein
through the fissure to be identified IN
its parts as a geological fact
After a long comment upon these
questions of identity and continuity
and upon other points raised on the
appeal. the court concludes:
I'VE will add, however, that as roun-
sci for both sides seem to have Inade
their briefs upon the assumption that
the old practice of making the orin-
ion of the district judge part Of the
record, still obtained, we have care
fully read it and considered it rs an
aid to the decision herein, and are
still of the opinion that the fair infer
ences to be drawn from the reasoning
of the trial judge are that he believed
that there was an insufficiency IF TIE
evidence to justify the verdict, which
was one of the grounds specified n the
motion for a new trial made by the
defendant. 1t. therefore. followed from
that belief. that the judge was Justified
in granting the motion, and 1t now fur
ther follows that the order must be
here sustained"

FlfTY-SEVEN SURVIVORS.
Fifty Died of Scurvy and as Many More
Were Drowned.

Wrangle Alaska, July 20. via Seat
tie, WASH. July 24-The Stickeen river
steamers StrathCOna and Casca arrived
here yesterday with 81 survivors Of the
Edmonton trail to Dawson. These I'M
fortunates had been on the trail nearly
two years and related tales of hardship
that demonstrate the non-feasibility
of both the land and water routes
overland.
Under orders from the Canadian gov
ernment, the Hudson Bay and other
trading companies have sent out relief
parties to bring in the several hundred
sick and starving still struggling along
the Lizard and Pelly rivers. During the
past winter it is estimated that so died
of scurvy and as many more were
drowned, while others returned to Ed
monton.
Strong language is used in decrying
the Interpretations sent to news
papers by agents of the transportation
and trading companies operating at
and about Edmonton, as well as the
Canadian officials who recommended
the route as a practicable one. The
majority of the survivors are without
funds. The majority are American
citizens and the local authorities are
notifying the Washington officials of
the destitution.

The United States Refuses to Agree to
Their Prohibition.

Washington, July 24.-The United
States will not be bound by the re-
ported decision of The Hague confer
ence to prohibit the use of the dumdum
bullet in warfare So far we have not
been obliged to resort to the use of this
bullet but the ordnance officers have
been making experiments to secure an
increased stopping" effect for the
small caliber ball used in the Krag-
Jorgenson, and the experiments have
proceeded somewhat on the line of the
dumdum balls. The specific reason why
Captain Crosier and the American del
egates refused to agree to prohibit the
dumdum was because their general in
structions forbade them to pledge this
government to any line of action that
would retard the development of in
ventive genius in war. Adhesion to the
protocols is voluntary. Great Britain
also refuses to prohibit the use of the
dumdum bullet.

The home of Gen. Wade Hamp

The home of Gen. Wade Hamp- ton, of South Carolina, was de- stroyed by fire few days ago and the people of his state, as a mark of their veneration and love for the distinguished old Confederate hero and statesman, are going to rebuild 1t for him by private subscriptions. Money is pouring in for the pur- pose and there is no doubt that his lovely homestead will arise phoe- nix-like from its ashes, grande r and more imposing than before. Gen. Hampton is one of the purest, noblest and grandest characters of the South and embodies everything that goes to make up the Southern gentleman, statesman and hero, and this evidence of the affection and veneration of his state for him will find an echo in the hearts of all true Southerners.-Morehouse Clarion.

The ancients believed that rheu- matism was the work of a demon within man. Any one who has had an attack of scatic or infam- matory rheumatism will agree that the infiction is demoniac enough to warrant the belief. It has never been claimed that Cham berlain's Pain Balm would cast out demons, but it will cure rheu- matism, and hundreds bear testi- mony to the truth of this state ment. One application relieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times it's cost.
