COPPER IS THE METAL.
The Cochise Copper Mining Company,
 Bisbee, Arizona.

Thls company owns very valuable group or mines situated in Warren mining district, county of COchise, Arizona, lying immediately east of and adjoining the town of Bisbee, and ad- joining the property of the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining company on the north, The latter company has been in operation TOT about twenty years, and employs about 1,5O0 men dally Tn the operation of it's manu1oth mine and smelters, and as a result has produced copper to over 34,000,0Ou pounds during the year 1898, and the net proceeds of such production are reported to have been over $2,0O0,00a. and It has been said by experienced miners who have been under its em- ploy TOT years, that the Queen mine now has sufficient ore in sight to keep It m constant operation for the next twenty years without further de- velopnent. ts
 IS It not reasonable to believe that the property of the Cocbise company is fully as valuable, when it is within such close proximity to such a won derful mine? .
 The blasts set off in the underground workings of the Queen property can easily be felt and heard at the shaft Of our mine, and oftimss the concussion has attracted marked attention.
 The original owners of these valu- . able mines are local business men, well and favorably known in Bisbee and surrounding vicinity, who are doing their utmost to make this enterprise success in every respect. The board O.: directors are original owners, and are donating their services 70 the con- pany until such time asSthe mine will pay dividends. They own the con- trolling interest in tbis property, and as a protection to stockholders have placed their entire interest in escrow for term of one year. s.
 The stock books of our company are now open for subscriptions, and a lim- ited number of shares are offered at ten cents per share. No application ! for less than 100 shares will be ac- cepted. r.t
 The company reserv. the right at any time to advance the price of shares without further notice, pr to reject any application for stock a their discre- tion.
 Every cent received ftOm the sale O. stock will be expended toward the de- yelopment of our property and the erection of hoisting w,rks and all other necessary improvements, and to make our enterprise a, slccess in every particular. ta.' ..fg" '}
 We invite investigators and their experts or their engineers to closely scrutinize our property
 Applications for shaies may be made to any of the directos of the com pany, or to any of oui legally author. ized representatives: -.r

HON. b1NaER HERMANN, Com missioner or the General Land Office, has decided m a case arising in Colorado that it is unlawful to tske coal from pubic lands under the coal dsolaratorY -stsseinent, and that parties, rafchasing coal thus obtained can be held responsible for the value thereof until, the government has recovered full satisfaction for the amount of trespass. This means that claimants have not the privilege to mine coal for sale or speculation, and that the pur. pose of coal declaratory statement is to protect the claimant in preference to right of entry of mines opered and im- proved by him.

 Rheumatism.

Those who have Rheumatism find themselves growing steadily worse all the while. One reason of this is that the remedies prescribed by the doctors contain mercury and potash, which ul- timately intensiiy the disease by caus- ing the joints to swell and stiffen, producing severe aching of the bones. 8. s. s, has been curing Rheumatism for twenty years-even the wGfSt cases which seemed almost incurable.

TWO CENTS ENOUGH.
In 900 Years, mt Compound Interest,
1t Would Pay OF the
Debt.

An instance of the danger of little
arithmetic has occurred at Birming-
ham. A far-seeing alderman objected
to building the council house upon
ground held only upon 900 years lease.
ut the end of which land and buildings
birmingham buildings are, of course,
durable) would belong to the ground
landlord, says Madame.
A learned mathematician thereupon
presented $50 to be accumulated at
compound interest to buy them back
again. 1t seems, however, that $4S. 90
could safely be devoted to the present
purchase of turtle soup for the corpora
ton; two cents would be sufficient, sup
posing the interest, rent and money
had not been abolished meanwhile, and
that the end of the world had not come !
Figures, we know, will prove any
thing. The ancient Greeks showed
mathematically that hare could never
pass tortoise. Suppose, they said, the
hare was ten times as fast, but the tor
toise had a hundred yards start.
While the hare run the 100 yards the
| tortoise would gain fresh start of ten
yards. While the hare cleared this off
his slower competitor would make q
yard. When pussy had passed the yard
the start would be one-tenth yard
similarly it would be reduced to one
| hundredth, one thousandth, and so on
but it never vanishes. 1 wonder how
many of my readers can show where
| the fallacy lies?

THE NEANDERTHAL SKELETON
Virchow, the German Scientist, Dis
credited 1t in the Eyes of
Many Scientints.

The famous Neanderthal skeleton was
discovered in 1857 In a cave in the val
ley of a small stream near Dusseldorf,
on the same level with bones of the ex-
tinct cave bear, says the American An
thropologist. The workmen who exca-
waited it, not knowing its value, only
saved the larger bones and the skull.
The frontal prominences are enormous,
producing a great overhanging supra
orbital ridge, entirely unlike anything
ordinarily seen in the skulls Of to-day,
and reminding one strikingly of the
skulls of the higher apes. 1t was de-
clared by Huxley to be by far the most
ape-like skull that had hitherto been
discovered. The remaining bones OF
the skeleton indicated man of un-
usually powerful frame.
A very forcible attack was made upon
the normal character of this skeleton
by Virchow, who pointed out that there
are in it unmistakable signs of the
rheumatic affection known as Thrills
deformans, and that this not infre
quenuy led, when of a very marked
type, to a deformity of the skull simi
| lar to that shown in these remains
This statement, made by the great au
thority of one of the foremost patholog
| ical anatomists of the time, has beer
sufficient to discredit the skull in the
| eyes of many anthropologists.

IAPAN'S POETESS LAUREATE.
Seisko, Seventy-Three Years Old,
Holds the Race Against All
Competitors.

The Crowned poet" to the court of
the mikado is woman. The post is
equivalent to that of our poet laureate,
but is much more difficult one to fill,
for the modern Japanese are the most
merciless critics in all that concerns lit
erary matters, says the Chicago Trib-
une.
In spite of these disadvantages the
accomplished poetess contrives to hold
her own successfully against all rivals,
and the annual poem which she has
ready with commendable punctuality
for the new year is always looked for
ward to by all those subjects of the
mikado who make the smallest claim
to culture, and is often far more eager
ly discussed than a serious political
crisis would be in any other country.
| "Seisko," for that is the poetess lau-
reates's name, is no longer young
woman, having in fact reached the age
of 73. She is, however, in spite of the
fact of her being herself little bit of a
new woman, a friend to the new
tangled ideas and fashions, especially
in all that concerns dress, which have
recently been imported into Japan
from Europe, and her own costume Is
decidedly old-fashioned, not to say an
tiquated, in cut.
1t invariably consists of three under
garments of white silk, over which il
worn a dress of the same material, but
violet in color, richly embroidered in {
design of landscapes and flowers, in va
rious bright shades.

miles back. Three of their children
have died since we left the strait. We
are anchored in the bay of Malta along
side of seven Englis battle ships carry

sure you it would be a sight for those
that never saw such. This town oi
Malta is one of the oldest now standing.
Napoleon captured this place over 10C
years ago. The town is of rock. There
is not piece of wood to be seen from
where stand. There is solid wall ol
rock all along the sea front. English
soldiers and also English marines are
seen in all directions. am going Out
to find something good to eat, las the
English call it, bloody good meal, if
can find blooming Otel.) The wealth
er is very nice today, and could stand il
very well in our shirt sleeves. We
have been on board II days and I an
getting somewhat used to it, but would
as soon be on land. I would like tt
have a drink from the spring at home
just about now. There are all kinds o.
people here, Dagoes, Spanish, China
men, Dutch, Scotch, Irish, &C., but
do not see any negroes here. We have
one on board our boat, he is cook. W.
also have a Chinaman cook. All ou
grub is cooked by steam. Vituals cook
ed that way are not good; they dom
have the right taste.
I will try and write few lines whel
we reach Port Said. So goodbye.

February %, 1899. J
DEAREST MOTHER:
We left New York the 10Th and we
expect to arrive at Gibraltar in a
couple of days, and will arrive at
Manila about the middle of April. We
have had very pleasant voyage so far.
I have had pretty bad spell of the
la grippe and occasionally chill; ex-
pect when we reach q warmer climate
to get rid of them.
Mother, would like so well If you
could see this boat. 1t is over 400 feet
long and draws twenty-one feet OF
water. There are over 1900 men on
baard, besides about twenty married
ladies. Some of the officers have their
wives and also some of the soldiers have
theirs. I know quite number of them
who say they wish they had never
started. 1t is very pleasant to be or
the ocean for few days, but when il
comes to be months on the water, il
gets stale, especially when it is so crowd
ed. We have wash rooms and batf
rooms, and are very well fixed in tina
line.
| Well, we have crossed the Atlantic
Ocean, passed through the Straits o
Gibraltar and are now on the Mediter
ranean Sea. We will pass through tn
Suez Canal into the Red Sea, thenc'
into Indian Ocean and China Sea, befor'
we reach our destination. My compan.
is quartered below, where we have cleo
trio lights day and night.

DUMAS OUTDONE.
Chinese Novels Are Said to Reach
the Utmost Limit of Elab-
OratiOn.

1t is a. proof of the high degree OF
elaboration to which fiction literature
in China has been carried that most of
their novels are thickly interspersed
with poems of all orders of merit.
No stronger evidence could be afford
ed of the fact that whatever they lack
it is not literary finish. If nything,
they have this in excess.
These poems are introduced in va
riety of ways. The hero sends one in
a billet doux to the heroine, or he over
hears her singing one, or perhaps q
poetic contest is struck up, the fine on
defeat being generally the compulsory
drinking of so many extra flagons of
wine.
Wine drinking and versification al
most invariably go together in Chinese
novels, though whetheE they do so In
real life we are unabl to, say.
Above all things, every man who seta
up to be anything in the way Of hero
in Chinese fiction must be prepared to
extemporize by the ream in inimitable
poetry.
