silver Advances.

New York, Nov. 10.-Silver bullion
a up Z a cent per ounce further on
to-day's local market, making a total
advance of IL cents in three days.
To-day's bid price for commercial bars
was 59ic; Tuesdays was 584c. To-
days advance, like that OF yesterday,
began in London, where bullion was
quoted early at 81 5-16d per
against 271sd yesterday. Local dealers
were still at a loss to explain the de-
mand. In addition to increased Hong
kong orders noticed yesterday, the
French mint has lately ordered $780,
600 worth of silver for coinage pur-
poses, but this order was supposed to
have been already filed. Some dealers
in silver were inclined to explain the
rise as a natural recovery, due to the
fact that silver prices have been weak
this year without adequate cause.

The surest and cheapest way to de-
velop a property is to lease it. This
may be accounted for in several ways.
It is quickest because lessees Will
work with much more zeal than day
laborers. Lessees work over hours;
study the character of rock opened
mp; follow stringers; compare the
sides of the shaft, and in this manner
very often determine their proximity
to an ore chute. Hired labor works
with utter indifference rs to the char
acter of the rock; their only object
is to render O good weeks service and
secure their weekly wages.
As q result of such indifference,
very often a rich ore chute has been
passed, by a fraction OF a yard, yet
not discovered until some industri-
ous, hard working lessee takes hold
of the property.
It is cheapest for the owners
because the discovery of a chute,
with the necessary workings for its
development, is worth to them nor
than all that will be taken out during
the life of an ordinary lease. Lessees
are their own managers, thus the
expense Of maintaining an office,
paying salaries to a manager and
clerk, etc., are not necessary. They
reduce mining to a business basis.
where every dollar accomplishes
something. No unnecessary expense
is incurred.
1t is conceded by well-informed
mon that the lessees made Cripple
Greek. These tireless workers, OPP
Grating ten or fourteen hours a day.
have made productive mines out OF
rs per cent of the better properties
in that camp. In fact. where you
find the most active camps there
you find the most leasers. denver

Lyddite.

The Springfield Republican says
that Lyddite is a secret compound
something like the French melinite,
an explosive six times more powerful
than gunpowder, and that when fred
the shells separate into thousands Of
fragments, making it a frightful in
strument OF war. 1t is used in the
English army alone, and the Republi-
can thinks that General Joubert's pro-
test against the use Of it on the ground
OF humanity, because it makes such
frightful havoc in mangling and tear
ing the men when the shells explode,
is a natural one.

WHITE PINE COUNTY ITEMS.
From the Nsws Of Nov. 81

From the Newe OF NOV. VI
Good practical miners are still in
demand at Cherry Creek.
A breast oil ore has been blocked
out in the Chairman mine during the
past week that shows an average value
of $120 a ton. There is also a big
body blocked out assaying $40 to the
ton. That does not look as If the
mine was worked out or too low grade
to pay.
Messrs. Gaby, Buntin d Doyle,
owners of the huebnerite mine, south
of Osceola, have sent a fine display oil
samples OF that rare mineral to IL. Nj.
Yerington, for display at the Paris
Exposition. Col. Grandelmyer has
also prepared seven boxes of specimens
from White Pine district.
About seventy horses are engaged at
Cherry Creek in hauling ore from the
Star mine to the mill, making a good
market for hay and grain. Teams are
continuously hauling grain from Ruby
Valley, and our ranchers find a good
market for potatoes and vegetables at
the boarding houses.

THE PROMISED SENSATION.

The sensation promised by the Reno
Journal was published on November
8. and that paper makes some very
strong charges OF fraud against the
promoters of the Nevada Power and
Transportation Company. According
to the Journal this concern was going
to accomplish some wonderful results
if you believe the statements OF those
interested in the company-but like
a great many other schemes it was too
cheap to be conducted on an honest
basis. The Journal says the company
was formulated by a retired sea captain
named Mills, who owns some abandon
ed claimsi in Peavine. The paper says
the Captain carries an assay blank
with him which purposes to give the
value OF the ore in his Peavine mine
at $40 per ton, but IA cents per ton
would be nearer. The Captain is also
owner of the Rattlesnake mine.
Willis G. Caffrey, a professor at the
University, purchased a lot OF the
stock. Henry Anderson, Sardis Sum
merfield, Henry Ritter and Lester Will
liams were identified with the project
but they quickly dropped it when they
made an investigation and found every
thing not on the square.

Russell at Battle Mountain, and has

July II, 700 miles west of Liverpool by
the Lamport and Holt steamship Hol-
bein, which arrived here yesterday.
Almost the first words OF the captain
when he reached the Holbein were:
II am glad did not take that girl on
this trip. She would have perished and
should never have forgiven myself"
He referred to Miss Belle Shane, Of
Norristown. N. j., who had gained Cap

take her with him. Afterwards he re-

rowboat at Atlantic City on the day OF
the captains departure and tried to
reach the Doree as she was sailing out
of the harbor. She threw a line over the
tiller which Captain Andrews cast of.
Her sobs OF disappointment followed
him.

The captain was exhausted when
seen from the deck OF the Holbein. He
was half reclining in the stern sheets
or the Doree, which was making at
least six knoH an hour, with all her
canvas drawing. The captain had
plenty of provisions. but he was worn
out with loss OF sleep When asked
through the megaphone IL he desired 10
be taken Off, he responded with feeble
nod.
He was too weak even 10 climb the
rope ladder that was flung over the
side and had to be slung under the
arms and hauled aboard the Eolbein
by four lusty tars.
Capt. Andrews, with tears. begged
that the Doree be saved. She had
proved a speedy boat, covering 23OO
-approximately-in twenty-four
days, an average of more than e5 miles
a day. Her condition, considering the
severity OF the voyage, was good. but
capt Shurlock was firm In his refusal
TO take the boat. He said he could not
stop TO bother with It, 1t -yould delay
the ship an hour TO save the skin and
so she was cast adrift.
With tears flowing down his checks,
capt: Andrews clung to the rail and
watched his boat as II faded from sight
astern. He was then taken into the
cabin and cared for.
