RAY NIUE SOLD.

From W. w. MeKim an Orb reporter
learns that the Ray mine in the Pilares
district. in which his brother, J. H. Nc
Kim, owns a half interest, the other
half being owned by man named
Benton, is as good as sold. The terms
are agreed upon and the conclusion of
the transaction waits merely on the
examination of the title to the prop
erty in the Office of the mineral agent
at Oposura The report on the title
will be made within ten days or two
weeks. However, the intending pur-
chasers, Denver parties. have no doubt
about the result of the examination of
the title, and SO the deal may be said
TO be practically closed.
The Ray property consists of liz
pertenencias. 1t is a very high silver
proposition, a chloride ore. Pieces of
gether by the horn silver in them. A
piece of ore weighing nearly 100
pounds is now on exhibition at B. F.
Graham's furniture store which as
says 1880 ounces of silver to the ton,
fifth of an ounce of gold and from
10 to II per cent lead. There is no
second class ore. The ore occurs in
pockets, as in the Cinco de Mayo. This
is characteristic of the Pilares district
The ore is taken out from a fOrty-foot
tunnel which taps it at $50 feet deep
1t is proposed to go in farther down
the mountain and tap the ore at 1000
feet
McKim and Benton have been work
ing the mine about eighteen months
and have taken out 5000, 900 in gold in
that time. 1t has cost $50, 900 to de-
velop and operate the mine, leaving
the owners a net profit of S15O 600 in
gold. The ore is all shipped by way Of
this city and from here to Ell Paso for
treatment. The mine is now produc-
ing two tons of ore day.
One of the mos serious drawbacks
to the property is that the ore has to
be packed for thirty miles over the
mountain trails on burros, but even
with this, the output from the ore is
not 20 be sneered at. The purchase
price is said to be 100000 in gold

SUGAR GROWING IN HAWAII.

An incident occurred during the pen
dency of the Hawaiian question, long
before the war with Spain broke upon
US. The diplomatic representative of
the islands was urging his plea upon
the foreign committees of congress,
and among other evidence he produced
very full maps of each island, lra7 4
on scale sufficiently large 70 show
every plantation on them. The fear
of some in congress was that if the
islands should be annexed the produc-
ton of sugar would increase to such
an extent that Louisiana interests
would be jeodardized. AS 1t was, the
Californian markets could absorb the
sugar products of the islands, but even
a moderate increase would lead to the
sending of raw sugar round the Cape
to the eastern markets. To assuage
this fear these maps had been pre-
pared. The lowlands along the coast
and between it and the foot of the
mountain cones were the plantations
fitted for sugar, and every available
acre of sugar land was represented as
occupied and in full cultivation. There
was no new land to be used for sugar.
a Sl1Snl rise dIOuS Tie ulOuulcIn SIOp1S
prohibited the growth of the cane, and
only coffee promised a profit In
short, it was urged there could be no
increase in the sugar crop of the is
lands, it was a physical impossibility.
Impressed by this proof, had the
maps copied, and showed them freely.
The event developed the unexpected.
In 1894 the imports of sugar from Ha-
wall were 305, $50, 600 pounds; in 1896,
when the production was supposed to
be at IT'S maximum, they were 43s, no.
600 pounds, gain IN two years of 40
per cent, or an average of about Il
per cent per annum. In 1897 they rose
to SOL 1886, 900 pounds. an increase Of IA
per cent, and it is now said that plant
ings cover more ground than ever be-
fore. More than that. the production
has outrun the ability of the western
market to absorb t,and it is to New
York that the surplus is sent, taking

MARRIED TO HER UNCLE


stop. stop, You are marrying the
wrong man." was the cry that inter
rupted the wedding of Miss Yole Per-
ELI and Emanuel guile at the Ma
sonic Widows and Orphans home at
Decoto a few days ago. The assem-
bled guests were in confusion. The
venerable justice of the peace, E. A
Richmond, who was officiating, was
nearly overcome with fright, and the
bride and groom were dazed when they
heard the cry.
1t came from one of the wedding
guests, who had the impression that
the justice was marrying the pretty
bride to her uncle. Cerrero Bernedo,
upon whose arm she leaned during the
ceremony. The interruption was not
without cause. The justice, not being
familiar with the names of the parties
to the wedding, had made a slip. He
called the name of the brides uncle in
stead of the real bridegroom The
mistake was perhaps Fashionable, as
the young woman and the older man
were standing directly in front of the
justice, who thought he had the right
pair as he gazed upon them. arm in
arm. But that was not all In trying
to straighten the tangle the justice re-
versed the names of the bride and the
groom, and there was more complica-
ton
At last in desperation the old man
called the ceremony off and started
anew on fresh track The third time
he managed to unite them duly and
legally man and wife.-San Francisco

POINTERS FOR WILLIAM.

General Fred Funston writes to
Charley Scott of the lola Register, in
substance, as follows: THE fellows
over in the United States who are
beefng about this war in the Philip
pines are making asses of themselves.
Wait till the Nebraska boys, who
fought side by side with us, get back
home and they will give Mr.. Bryan a
few pointers that he hadn't probably
dreamed of before" ta
We haven't doubt of it. The Ne
braska boys who have fought in the
Philippines take no stock in the talk
of Mr.. Bryan and, his allies, the mug
wumps, to the effect that Aguinaldo
is a modern George Washington and
that the F'Ilipinos are engaged in the
same sort of a contest for liberty as
the revolutionary fathers were en-
gagged in.
That isn't all, as General Funston
viii find out when he gets back home
He will find out that the talk of Bryan
and Mason and Hoar and the other
democrats, pops, mugwumps and
grannies against The Filipino war has
a good deal more effect on the Filipino
insurgents than it has on the people
over here.
The people over here have maze up
their minds on that proposition. They
are for staying by the government by
a large majority and the ma jority is
growing. Mr.. Bryan will find it out
next year when il is everlastingly too
late. He will find that the people have
even less use for his anti-expansion
doctrine than they have for his free
silver doctrine, which Jerry Simpson
has well described as having the in
terest of last years bird nest.-To-

HIS HABIT HAS NO PARALLEL

Thomas Frazer, a druggist, has &C
quired a unique habit which, accord
ing to the physicians in the Harlem
hospital, has no known parallel. Eight
years ago Frazer was treated in ST.
Luke's hospital, where he received in
Jections of pilocarpine varied with
morphine and cocaine. After he was
discharged he continued the use of the
drugs. He was taken to the Harlem
hospital. DR.. Muller, who is treating
him, said:
1--WE find that Frazer is a slave TO
the drugs he learned to use while i'll
st. Luke's. His arm is full of sores
made by the needles of hypodermic
syringes. Every two hours he re-
quires an injection Of pilocarpine Half
an hour after the pilocarpine he must
take two grains Of morphine, and half
an hour later three-quarters of
grain of cocaine. 1t is the first case
on record SO far as we know where a
man has acquired the piloearpine
habit

EDIsoN's LOVE FOR PIE.

Edison used to be a great lover of
pie, but on account of impaired diges-
ton he eats less Of it than formerly.
He tells the story Of how he once went
to London on an important mission.
The chief thing they gave him to eat
was roast beef. Mr.. Edison finally re-
belled. He declared his brain was be-
coming roast-beefy, and his thoughts
were as clear as an ocean fog. In
sheer despair he ran out of the res
taurant one evening and sought far
and near for piece of good Yankee
pie He found it shortly and ate sew
eral pieces. His brain cleared as If
by magic. He quickly and success
fully finished his business and return
