One Of the Michigan food inspectors
who has been making a tour OF the
state, says that Michigan's pure food
law is working admirably in diminish
ing adulteration. He says that, of la,e
years, great quantities of imitation
fruit jellies have been sold; these are
made of glucose and corn jelly, colored
to resemble the desired fruit. In one
town the inspector stopped the sale of
imitation awberry jam, which was
made of corn jelly and glucose, favored
with strawberry extract, and further
improved by the addition of hayseed.

duel with the Italian iire-eater, the
Count Of Turin, nephew Of the King Of
Italy.
1t was no French duel; the partici-
pants were both wounded. The Count
was slightly cut on the right hand, but
the Prince was severely wounded. At
one time 1t was believed that he would
die, but medical skill, strength and
youth pulled him through.
1t was because the young prince had
said that the Italians were towards
and fools in their AbyssInian fights
that Turin challenged. He himself
had made three journeys to Abyssinia,
and thought he knew something about
that remote land. Turin declared that
all Prince Hcnry's reported discoveries
were "fakes" After the duel there
was royalist talk Of electing Prince
Henry President.
In 1895 the Princes father had to In
stitute proceedings to have his son de-
clared bankrupt. The young man
had sQunndered vast amount Mt cards
every French nobleman does that
and his father was called on to pay
the shot, which he did, borrowing from
Baron Hirsch. But he made up his
mind not to do 1t again.

A Story with "a Moral.

An old sailor once appeared to give
evidence in a case of assault, when he
was asked the following questions:
The Judge-"Where was plaintiff
standing when defendant struck him!"
Witness-"Who are they:"
The Judge-''Don't you know the
difference between plaintiff and defend
anti"
Witness-"No."
The Judge-"Well, you are nice
chap to come here and give evidence!
And you don't know the plaintiff from
the defendant: Where was he when
the man struck him!"
Witness-"Abaft the binnacle"
The Judge-'Abaft the pinnacle!
Where is that?'
Witness-"You are a fine chap to
sit AS a judge! And you don't know
where 'abaft the binnacle' is?'

And by no means the least of the
great natural resources of the country
is the great Salado coal fields, which

pany shall have reached the fields with

whence it strikes across the plains in
the direction of White Oaks. The first

there is a mill there which has a busy

farms, where grains of all kinds are
raised in abundance, and a ready mar

to spare. Three Rivers is the next sta

The Ell Paso and Northeastern road Is
moving along to the Salado coal fields
in Otero county. The road has opened
UP a country of which little was gener-
ally known until within the last year.,
especially as to mineral resources OF
the Jarilla mountains. The mines
opened up within two miles of the main
line have proven remarkably product
i've. The first mine hat was exploited
can hardly be surpassed by any other
in the country, for the ore output dur
ing the first six months of it's exist
ence. It's record was 100 cars of twenty
five tons each within six months from
the time work was first commenced.
This mine is within fifty miles of Ell
Paso. All Of the ore has been smelted
in that city. The Lucky mine, another
property, has in sight over 100 cars of
ore, opened up and ready for shipment.
The railroad company has built
branches to these two mines, and six
compressed air drills are cutting the
ore deposits of the Lucky.
Jarilla mountain has 10 natural wa
ter supply within twenty-five miles,
and that would have to com
through sand hills. So the railroad
company hauls water there in cars es-
pecially prepared, runs the tank cars
up a steep incline, and empties them
into a large reservoir, whence the val
liable fluid is piped throughout the
camp. The Jarilla mountains are

ton to make final proof. Mineral is the
property of he who finds it, and title to
mineral land can be obtained by filing
the proper application at the land office
and doing the required assessment
| work for five years, when a final patent
Is issued. A mineral claim IAN be taken
up by any citizen who may find it, even
if he Is not of age, while a homestead

The United States land office, for Lin

pense of a long trip. When this Is done,
however, the fees are doubled. On a

around Nogal is excellent for agricul-
tural purposes. Mineral claims are
limited to twenty acres each for each

AT TULAROSA.
Quite extensive mining operations are
being prosecuted on Tularosa creek.
One car load has been shipped, giving
the shipper high returns; n numer-
Gus other prospects are reaching a ship
ping stage. This ore is copper, carrying
good values in silver.
1t is needless to specify the different
points north of Tularosa where pros
pecting is being done, as it extends all
over the range. The vicinity Of Nogal,
however, is the central point of activity
of the northern section; and by the time
the road gets In operation it will have
lots Of ore to handle.
On the west one al look to the Sail
mas Peak and San Andreas as very
probable shippers in the nea future. 1t
is a very promising country, and while
the haul is long, the roads are good, and
ore high grade.
OTHER POINTS.
AT White Oaks, the Old Abe Is show
ing up finely, and there are other prop
critics there ready to ship ore as soon as
necessary arrangements can be made
for transportation.
At Ell Paso, the erection of a large
smelling plant on the tracks Of the Ell
Paso and Northeastern has just been
determined upon. The Federal Copper
Company is the owner, and the officers
reside in New York City. They own
| some large copper mines in Arizona,
which Is the primary cause of the erec-
ton Of the smelter, but they look to the
mines on this line largely for their
1uxes and their custom business. The
mining outlook on the White Oaks route
is, therefore, excellent.

VARIOUS MINERALS.
In addition to the gold, coal, granite
and timber, turquois is found in the
mountains near the Rio Bonito. Large
deposits crop out on the surface in sew
eral places. This has never been work.
ed at all. The turquois that appears on
| the surface is of rather poor grade and
not equal to that Of the Jarillas.
Whether it will improve further down
is of course a matter of speculation. A
turuuois mine has been located neal the
head of the Bonito.
The town of White Oaks, twelve miles
beyond the proposed terminus Of the
road, has long been the principal town
of thai section. 1t has been kept pros
porous by the mines Of which the Old
Abe Is the principal. This mine has
long been a heavy producer of gold in
such quantities as to make the working
| profitable even when there was no rail-
! road within 100 miles. The building Of
a railroad to a point neal to or with a
branch to White Oaks, from the Ell Paso
& Northeastern, will undoubtedly re-
suit in renewed activity at the mines
around White Oaks and Nogal.
