Increase in Gold Production.

The increasing annual production of
gold in the world is a matter of such
far-reaching economic Importance, not
only in the financial affairs of nations,
but also in their industrial progress and
in their civilization, that vast amount
of patient study has been given by en-
inent statisticians to the subject and
much time expended in compiling, from
various historical records and other
sources of information, statistical data
which can be confidently accepted as
approximately correct, showing the an
nual production of the precious metal
from the time of the discovery Of Amer
lea down to the present day.
A publication of the United States
Treasury Department, issued in 1897,
containing information respecting the
production of precious metals, ETC.,
gives statistical tables showing the an
nual production OF gold in the world,
commencing with the year 1893. The
earlier records are taken from a table
of averages for certain periods COM
piled by DR.. Adolph Soetbeer and the
later figures (from 1885 to 1896 are the
annual estimates of the Bureau of the
Mint. Other tables show the annual
production of gold from the mines of
the United States alone from 1915 to
1856, and it is from these official
sources mainly that the information has
been gathered for this article, supple
mented, however, by a full and very
interesting communication to the au-
thor from the Director of the Mint,
giving the latest figures, not yet pub
lished, and containing the estimates and
deductions of the Director respecting
the production Of gold in the world in
1898. This information is so timely
and valuable that the author is of the
opinion that the courteous letter of the
Director of the Mint in response to his
inquiries, if appended to this article,
may prove to be-like the postscript of

Physicians in Literature.

It is a curious fact indeed that, in
modern French novels, the really Gull
t:vated and attractive man of middle
age is almost always a physician
Sometimes he is an artist, but the artist
has more commonly burned himself out
with his own fire and has disappeared
ere middle life, while the physician re-
mains Akin to this is a certain at
traction welded by physicians as
writer's, of which quality the late DR..
John Brown, in Edinburgh, and DIR. Oil
Yer Wendell Holmes, among ourselves,
afford the best examples. Such physi-
clans, when they turn literary men, are
apt to surpass the merely literary men
about them, perhaps because the ply
stefan takes the realities of life first,
and its ideal side indirectly, while the
literary man takes his ideal first, and
then the real. The latest illustration
Of all this is in a delightful book which

he had apparently practiced medicine

SHORT MEMORIES.
San Diego Union: Cubans have very
short memories. Their General Assem-
by seems to have entirely forgotten
what the United States did for them by
driving the Spaniards from the island.
That was months ago. Still, the fellows
that are making all sorts of demands
for the Cuban army-to which the
washington Government does not owe
one dollar-ought not to be quite obliyi-
Gus to the fact that even now the
American treasury is feeding 10000
people daily in Havana. If the United
States forces were withdrawn, as the
members of the Cuban Assembly wish,
would they take up the task of saving
those destitute islanders from starva-

GOLD AND SILVER MEDALS.
NATIONAL GUARD MARKS
MEMS ANNUAL SHOOT.
Captain Poulter Wins the First
Rifle Prize, and Lieut.. Per-
key the Pistol Prize.

Twenty-Five distinguished marksmen
of the National Guard met at the Amer
lean River range yesterday and took
part in the State champion gold medal
contest.
While the day was perfect overhead,
much of the range was too moist for
comfort, particularly when it came to
firing with the Texas grip" Those of
the guardsmen lucky enough to possess
rubber boots took their less favored
comrades upon their backs and carried
them through the backwater to high
and dry spots.
While the attendance was not large
the competitors all did satisfactory
work, considering that few of them had
had any preliminary practice
Under the rules of the contest each
rif1eman fired fifteen shots. five each
from the 200, 300 and 500 yard ranges,
thus making 20 the possible score.
The pistol cracks fired ten shots each
from the flfty-yard range, fixing the
possible score at so points.
Company e of the Second Infantry,
the local organization, could get no bet
ter IMAM third place, it being taken by
Lieutenant John l.. Hughes. Company
r placed its faith in Corporal B. F.
Nutting, and up to the last few shots
his chance for taking a medal was Al.
He, however, fell down" on them, and
took fourth position, giving to Sacra-
mento place only.
The gold medal for rif1emen fell to
Captain c. T. Poulter, commander of
Company A, Fifth Infantry, he piling
up "a out of a possible 70 points. The
silver medal fell to Lieutenant F. w.
Mixter, Company b, Sixth Infantry,
with 63 out of a possible 70.
Amnog the pistol experts Lieutenant
f. q. Pirky, Second Infantry Staff,
took the gold medal, with Al out of

of the Second Brigade Staff took the
silver medal, with score Of 46 out of
