SHE FORGOT HER HATPIN.

Two married ladies of the northern
section of the city are regular attend
ants at the theatre on certain nights
each week. Their husbands, owing to
the nature Of their occupations, are un-
able to accompany them, so they go
alone.
One of the ladies resides three
squares from the cars and the other
nearly two squares, both on the same
street. The lady who lives furthest
from the cars was asked by her hus-
band if she was not afraid to walk the
distance alone
Afraid" she answered "do you see
that?' producing a wicked-looking,
long hatpin. IF any man should adj
dress me / would stab him"
One dark night recently the two
wives alighted from the car at their
usual place and started homeward,
cheerfully chatting about the play.
They had gone half q square when a
man suddenly appeared from an alley.
His hat was slouched over his eyes.
At a glance the ladies concluded he
was a suspicious character They
slowed up to let him get past, but he
slowed up also. Then they walked
faster; he did the same. AS they
neared the home of one of the ladies
the man was very close to them. The
one who had boosted of what she
would do when an opportunity occur
red for the use of the hatpin broke in
a dead run for the middle of the
street, down which she hurried like a
wild gazelle. After she had gone fifty
or sixty feet a familiar voice rang
out: say, Nan, where's your hatpin ?"
1t was her husband. She still declares
that it was the meanest act her hus-
band ever did-Baltimore Sun.

cALUMET & HECLA.

CALUMET d HECLA.
The biggest mine that has been OPP
ened the last three years on Lake Su-
perior is the Calumet & Hecla's new
mine upon the Osceola lode.
1t is probable that the OsceCla is
upon the whole opening up better under
the Calumet & Hecla territory than I'M
der the Osceola company's territory,
and with the Calumet & Hecla's or
ganiZation and machinery already es-
tablished upon the same ground, 1t Will
WELD a larger profit per pound OF rock
mined than on any other ground. not
withstand the alleged extravaganza
of the Calumet q Hecla mand5 olhenl.
This rock will probably yield ~ per
cent of copper as mined by the Calu-
met, but mined even upon very ex-
tensive scale it cannot yield any re-
turns commensurate with the profits
from the Calumet & Hecla's Calumet
conglomerate lode, or reef.
President Agassiz says that the reefs
of the South African gold mines are
substantially similar in all their char
acteristics to the Calumet & Hecla' $
conglomerate deposits, the only differ
ence being that the waters of antiquity
deposited copper at Lake Superior and
gold in South Africa. The method of
nature seems to have been the same
OF course. no such volume of gold de-
post was ever found anywhere i'll the
world as is now being opened in cop
per at the south end of the Calu
met and Hecla. Here has been, until
few months, the most expensive, be-
cause the poorest paying, shaft ever
put down by the Calumet 81 Hecla, and
only a mining company of its richness
could afford to continue such an I'M
profitable shaft for many years, and az
Q. depth Of more than 5000 feet, with no
knowledge that it would ever come
INTO PAYING GROUND.
But recently it has opened INTO what
appears to be beyond belief-native
copper rock of higher grade than the
product of the Calumet & Hecla STAMP
mill, in fact running so per cent cope,
and in the most perfect form for nan
ding, because it is broken conglomeraLe
and not mass copper, which in large
quantities is handled only with great
difficulty.
At points in the Calumet & Hecla
small amounts of fine copper mineral
running so per cent copper have been
found and shipped directly to the smell
ter under the miners denomination OF
''brick' copper. This brick copper is
now appearing at the bottom OF the
openings of the poorest and most
southern shaft. and in quantities never
before seen. 1t is shipped directly to
the smelter without treatment al the
stamp mill
When it is considered that conglom
crate rock carrying 81 per cent in ma
tive copper is the foundation for the
Calumet & Hecla wealth, and that 5
per cent copper rock is bonanza IN its
mine, it may well be declared that gold
mines are not in it with the Calumet &
Hecla. when it's poorest ground turns
into rock carrying so per cent pure OF
native copper.

CALUMET and HECLA STOCK.
Wealth of the New Mine on
the Osceola
Lode.
CALUMET and RECLA STOCK.

The consolidation of the Pullman and
Wagner Palace Car companies has no
relation to New England railroad inter-
ests so far as can be now foreseen.
There is no reason to suppose that the
Pullman Company owns a single share
Of Boston and Albany or of Boston and
Maine. The only block of stock in any
New England railroad company that
can be considered as in any way I'M
settled is the block of New York, New
Haven and Hartford Railroad stock in
the Boston and Albany treasury.
The Pullman Company did at one
time possess 10, 900 shares of Boston and
Maine stock. The last of this was
sold about a year ago at $160 per share.
A syndicate bid 1915 per share for
the control of Boston and Maine stock
this year or for all the stock possessed
by the American Express Company, and
Its associates.
MI Fargo did not believe that the
American Express Company could af-
ford to sell it's Boston and Maine stock
either to this syndicate or to the Cana
dian Pacific, which we understand was
also DESTROYS of purchasing control of
Boston and Maine so far as it could be
secured.
A syndicate of American Express
Company people later bought at about
5000 the block of about 1000 shares of
Boston and Maine stock held in the
Sinclair estate, and similar block
from Frank Jones and associates, in
all 1880 shares. The last of this
stock was delivered and paid for Sat
urday.
The largest owner in this syndicate
is c. NJ Pratt, although it is under
stood there are nine other persons in
it. 1t is not a Standard Oil company
acquisition, but individual investment
by the American Express people.
The American Express Company and
individuals connected with the Ameri-
can Express Company now own about
one-third of the Boston and Maine
stock, or $4,000 shares.
