Mining Bureau.

The Mining and Scientific Press says
that mining bureau has been opened in
jerome, AriZ.. in which has been placed
a fine collection of ores and relics found
in the ruins and mines of prehistoric
Arizona. Besides these. the bureau is
prepared to furnish information relative
to the resources of YavaDai county and
of the territory. This Is an excellent
thing and is in line with a suggestion
made by the Mining and Scientific Press
some months ago. The county officials
of each county should take up this mat
ter and provide suitable apartment for
a display of the countys minerals and
other resources. accessible at all times
to the public. With such a collection at
the county seat. in event of an EXPOSE
ton at some important point the county
would be prepared to send for exhibition
the best that its mineral resources would
afford. at little expense and without de-
lay. Such a step could not fail to bene-
1T the section making the display. Je-
rome's example Is worthy of emulation.

Patent Medicines in Central America

Central America is a great field for
patent medicines" said an experienced
shipper. The natives down there seem
to have natural passion for expert
menting with all kinds of remedies, and
the only thing l ever knew to fall fiat
was lot of corn eradicator that was
sent into a district where everybody
went barefoot. I memember five or six
years ago consignment got mixed and
a druggist in one of the five republics
received a key of liver regulator and a
crate of empty bottles for hair tonic.
You see. they generally ship the medi-
cine and glassware separately, to dodge
clause in the tariff schedule. and some
chap running a store in the next ma
ton had received the other end of the
orders. The druggist was in guam
dairy at first, but the labels were very
pretty, so he finally put the liver regu-
lator in the hair tonic bottles and noti-
fled the bellies of the neighborhood that
he had something that would make
their tresses as beautiful as a dream.
The regulator enjoyed a great run, but
the drug man was haunted by the fear
that the other chap had palmed off
hair tonic for liver medicine and pois-
oned whole district He finally turned
up. coming north on banana boat, and
proved to be good fellow. He adj
mitted that he also received mixed
consignment and had done exactly like
the first man. 1t didn't hurt em a par
ticle. he declared, and, on the contrary,
he had a lot of testimonials certifying
to remarkable cures It's just as I tell
ou-Central America is the paradise of
the world for patent medicines"

ALL ARE IN THE CEMETERY.
Glover Device of Chicago Woman to Sc.
cure a Flat.


From the Chicago Chronicle.
Out at the Queen Anne flats there is an
ironclad rule that no family with children
shall be permitted to take a lease of an
apartment. This rule and the situation of
the building initiate against the filling of
the flats. but the agent succeeded in maxi
ing a fair showing, none the less. One
day while wondering if he would receive
any more applications before the rush
season was ended large, portly and red
faced woman dressed in black entered the
office.
She wanted a fiat and had inspected the
premises She fancied the third of a GER
tain row and was willing to make an ad-
vance right then. The terms were agreed
upon and the papers drawn up, when the
agent said:
1--WE cannot permit any children in
those fats. Have you any?"
The woman sobbed aloud. She coyly
admitted to having had seven, but said
between her gasps: "They are all now in
the cemetery, sir
The agent was sympathetic and consol-
ing. The papers were signed, the keys de-
livered and the new tenant departed, wip-
ing her eyes, while her shoulders heaved
with woe. The next time the agent Wen:
there for rent he was met by a bunch of
children who clambered the stars with
him and seemed very much at home. He
went to the fiat on the third floor and was
admitted.
Are these your children, ma'am?" he
asked of the portly tenant.
Seven are, SIR" was the reply.
but you told me all yours were dead"
Indeed did not, sir What 1 said was
that they were in the cemetery, and they
were. Their father was out of job and
he took them out to the cemetery on a
picnic"

STATIONS Independence.

From the Mining Investor.
T. A. Richard consulting engineer of
STATIONS Independence. limited, has re-
Gently made visit of inspection to the
great mine in Cripple Creek and finds
things looking more promising than ever.
The most important development is in
the fourth level. where the rich ore of the
third level was found for the first time
last month An upraise proved the ore
body continuous to the fourth level and
since then prosecuting has been in pro-
gress on the fourth level to determine the
width of the ore.
Up to the present time it has been pene-
trated to the distance of 80 feet without
finding wall, the entire mass averaging
four ounces to the ton. Mr.. Richard says
that in this portion of the mine alone
there is ore enough to maintain the out
put of the mine for year. In his report
10 the company Mr.. Richard says that in
his opinion within three months the third
level will be shown to have ore reserves
worth $l,50000O.
