A String of Accidents.

The Belt Valley Times gives the
following chapter of accidents dur
ing the past week:
"Dr. Vidal's horse ran away last
Saturday evening, smashing the bug
gy and a window in the Miners un-
ion reading room.
Gas Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Breslin
were driving down a steep grade en-
route to Davis creek, last Sunday,
their horse became balky and over
turned the buggy. The occupants
fortunately escaped with a few
scratches and bruises. The wagon
and harness was somewhat damaged.
"Whilo Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Toll
liver were driving into Belt from
Great Falls Sunday afternoon the
buggy wheel struck a bad hole in
the road near the Sand Coulee cross
ing, and the front axle OF the buggy
was broken and the occupants were
obliged to continue their journey on
foot.
"Last Sunday afternoon, Adrian
White of Arlington, and two young
lady companions, had quite an ex-
perience while out driving. They
were coming up Lower Cashier
street, and when opposite DIR. Law
yer's residence, the team took fright
at ar umbrella which "a little girl was
trying to raise. The team started to
run and made a break for the wagons
at the Belt Hardware storehouse. In
and out they went, fortunately with
out striking any of the wagons, and
finally White succeeded in getting
them into the main road, down which
they went at a b%reakneck pace. The
driver stuck to his post and finally
managed to check them about a
quarter of a mile down the road. No
damage. Contrary to the custom of
their sex, the young ladies retained
their composure and seats through
out the exciting ordeal.

Annual Mineral Production

The annual report of the assayer
in charge of the United States assay
office at Helena, just published,
shows the following total mineral
production of the state of Montana
for 1893:
Gold, fine ounces, 253,S 1865; value,
$5,247, 912.9l.
Silver, fine ounces, 14,S18,6 61
value, $40, 159,489.17.
Copper, fine pounds, 216,979,354;
value, $26, 102,6l6.29.
Lead, fine pounds, 21,4O3,582;
value, $909,O55.79 {.
Total value of prophets, $51 ,319,-
IO67.l6.
In the production of gold Monta-
ma is third, both Colorado and Calf
ornia leading it, but in the grand to-
tai of mineral productions Montana
leads the union.
There is a decided improvement in
the production of silver in mill bull
lion, but a decrease in the output
generally. The decrease in the cop.
per output is 20, 179,l86 pounds, but
the increased price made the value
of the lessened quantity in 1893 al.
most equal to the product of 1897
The heaviest falling off was suffered
by the Anaconda company, which
closed down a large portion of its
mining operations during 1898 or
account of fire.
The number of miners employed
during 1898 was 11,O86, of whom
9,42S were employed on preciou:
metal ores, and 1868 mined coal.

Betrothal Rings.

Modern Greek peasants exchange a
gold and silver wedding ring, and they
drink wine from the same cup. But the
regular ritual of the Greek church Or
dams that solemn betrothal precedes the
aotaal marriage, in which are used gold
and silver wedding rings blessed by
che priest, the gold ring being given to
the man, the silver ring to the m
The form Of the espousal is then repeat
ed, and the rings are placed on the right
hands and then exchanged that no in
feriority may be betokened by the wom-
an wearing the silver ring and also to
indicate a common ownership Of prop
erty.
An Armenian mother usually chooses
her daughters husband. After all bust
ness preliminaries are settled between
the families the bridegroom's mother,
accompanied by a priest and two ma
irons, visits the bride and gives her a
ring in token of espousal, and with this
ring the couple are ultimately married.
Among the fishing communities very
ancient and elaborate rings are used,
and they descend as heirlooms from
generation to generation.
In japanese marriages arranged be.
tween very young people the girl re-
oeives a ring in evidence that the union
is binding. In Malabar an old native
custom seats both bride and bridegroom
on a dais, and a relative washes the
feet of the bridegroom with milk and
puts a silver ring on the great toe of the
right foot. He then hands a gold ring
to his kinsman, and a necklace and
chaplet Of flowers are put on the brides
neck and head. London Mail
