MINING NOTES.

The output of ores from the Rossand
mines last year amounted to $2,S04,75S.
For the first four days of the year 100
mining locations were filed for record at
Colville.
Since 1896 the output of ores from the
Kaslo port has grown from 81 100000 to
50, 55O,6G9.
The Palo Alto of Republic is looking
exceedingly well. The quality of the
quartz is all of high grade.
Last year $50 instruments were record
ed with the deputy mining recorder of
the Florence district, Idaho.
A 20-foot blind ledge was struck in the
Mammoth at Silver City, Idaho, at 100
feet depth, which prospects well.
The big De Lamar company is said to
be trying to get some of the newly dis
covered properties in Central Idaho.
All of the machinery for the Ymir 40
stamp mill is on the ground, and it is ex.
pected to be ready for operation in few
weeks.

the offer having been made by Butte

Newsome Creek, Idaho, is only one Of
a number OF good quartz mining camps
which offer great opportunities for the

reached the goal and opened fine ore

Mine Inspector Owens states that unless
the duty on British Columbia coal is Ia
ken off, the output of Washington during
1899 will double that of 1898, which wa,
about 100000 tons. New mines are be
ing opened constantly and the demand
can never exceed the supply, for it i.

For years the dream of SanitalianS
in this country has been TO secure con
troll of Havana and the other coast
towns of Cuba, in order to destroy in
them the lurking places of yellow fever
and so to free our own shores from a
constant menace. That this can be
done is shown by the history Of King
Ston. in Jamaica, which was once a
pest hole and of New Orleans which
intelligent sanitation has freed from
the domination of the disease. The re
cent deplorable and tragic death of Col.
Warning from yellow fever, contracted
while making an official sanitary sur
vey of Havana, has revealed the inten.
tion Of our government to seize prompt
~ its opportunity to remove from our
Southern cities this ever-recurring dan
ger 1t is fortunate that Col. Warnings

was seized with fatal Illness although
it is a poor compensation for the loss
which his untimely death intlictS. Al

it is -emnently a filth disease the
germ of which thriyeS only in dank and

this plague is therefore one purely of
sanitation. We cannot yet reach the
germ by any direct means, bur we can
destroy 1t Indirectly by deprivng it of
the conditions essential to its existence.
This we mus, do in the case of Havana
by cleaning the streets, draining the
soil and preventing further pollution by

pure water, and opening up all the dark

be accomplished before Cuba is turned
