A SAILORS RESTAURANT.

Miss Helen Gould, of New York, is
telling her friends OF a ten-cent meal
which she ate In Brooklyn. N. Y, and
for which she forgot to pay. The lat
ter fact Is OF no consequence. as she
was not asked to pay.
1t was at the new sailors clubhouse

TWISTING HIS TAIL.

Many Of those vino know EmDdsSI-
dor ChOate, personally, or by reputa-
! ton, felt that It was acre qucs-
ton Of time when he would wound the
feelings OF the Sensitive Patriots by
some unfortunate remark that he
would make to British audience.
The time cane swiftly. In one Of
mis- speeches made in London recently.
he followed his usual and happy way
OF dealing with men and things, and
said that the American people had got
ten some fun by twisting the tail of
the British lion, in the Venezuelan af-
fair. and he congratulated the BRUSH
because they looked pleased, and did
not resent the twist.
The very Sensitive Patriots in Amer
lea, who are rarely caught in the act
OF doing anything good for the good
OF the country, aside from the display
OF extreme sensitiyencss, do not like
Mr.. Choate's remark. The san Fran
cisco Chronicle takes up the bell the
tongue Of which sounds protests against
'un-Americanism and rings 1t on the
highways, as warning TO Mr. Chuate.

diplomatic, International, solemn and
severe twist, done after mature refec-

America has assumed, as the super
visor Of the nations that exist be ween
lie North Pole and Patagonia. Mr..
nOate Is told that he launches him
self on sea of trouble, when he
makes trihlng remarks about such a
serious matter. He is advised to care

tive Patriots. and It is intimated that
II he INDUCES in such offensive re-
marks, he will suddenly hear the
screech OF the Eagle over his head.
II feels, with other Sensitive Patriots,

subject, he was bound in conscience

known, did not approve Of some of the
remarks offered to the British public
by ambassador Hay. For he carefully
avoided as his predecessors avoided
any reaching out for the tail of the

himself in the Stars and Stripes. con-

As ambassador Choate Is much given

solemnly admonished from time to

A. P. Cook, superintendent of
poor for St. Louis county, is au.
thority for the statement that
this is the mildest winter in .
number Of years so far as desti-
tuition is concerned. His depart
ment has had less demands for
aid than in several years, and he
considers that the. worst of the
hard times period is over, so far
as those depending upon public
support are concerned. Last
winter and the winter before
that were the hardest seasons OF
the hard times, from the stand
point OF the county poor fund.
and this year, on the other hand,
is the best. Most of the men
who have been applicants for
aid are at work, or removed
from the country, and most of
those remaining public charges
are those who ore steadily in
that condition, such as widows
and deserted women with fam.
lilies, whose condition is, OF
course, but little improved by
the return of good times.

RICH GOLD VEIN.

One of the most promising
veins of gold quartz that has as
yet been discovered in this Sec
ton of the country was recently
located in 81 IA. The vein IS
reported as averaging 20 feet in
width and distinctly traceable ON
the surface for a distance of
nearly a mile. Various assays
have been made from quartz
taken from different portions OF
the vein showing a richness of
about $24 to the ton. The vein
was located a good many years
ago but owing to the difficulty
experienced at that time in: get
ting in machinery and provls-
ions it was abandoned and for
gotten, until now when several
Tower parties became interested
in the property.
Although the matter has been
kept as secret as possible we
were informed yesterday by two
of the parties interested that a
stock company was being form.
ed and that 1t was the intention
to begin active developments in
a few weeks. Aside from two or
three Tower parties there are
several eastern capitalists deep
" interested in the finds so there
will be no lack of funds to carry

FOL. J. No. I.

With this issue The Enter
prise enters upon another epoch
IN it's history, and presents to ITS
readers the first number of Vol.
ume z, and in an anticipative
mood We opine that the coming
year will be a prosperous one
not for The Enterprise alone,
but tor Virginia.
The policy of The paper needs
no explanation, as it's continuous
publication by the present editor
for six years has certainly given
i; standing in the community
as the exponent Of right, and q
reputation as an iudetatigable
worker for the interests Of our
people.
Since our advent in Virginia
six yeas ago we have seen the
city spring from a rude mining
camp of a half score buildings to
q prosperous city of four thous
and people; have seen the pris
tine wilderness of untold ages
give way before the energy of
man aud transformed into . city
of happy homes, the center of
greater mineral and timber
wealth. mayhap. than any other
city Of the universe.
We have seen the spirit and
zest of determined people fully
exemplitied in the upbui!ding of
q new Virginia, commenced ere
the ashes Of their burned city
had ceased to shoulder, and in
the grim determination shown at
the time Of adversely is found
commendable evidence of the
energy or our citizens. which is
more fully attested BY the public
and private Improvements to be
noted upon every hand.
D1ring all these years The
Enterprise has been accorded q
most liberal and encouraging
patronage, for which we extend
our thanks. In future. as in
past. our aim shall be to make
Of the paper a correct criterion
of our city and an able advocate
of aught for the interest of the
community. feeling assured of an
equitable patronage which we
shall endeavor to merit and re
tain by reliable and satisfactory
work in all departments of our
business. >-
