mart of this sum had been placed on de-
posit for the Cotton Exchange creditors
with the Farmers Loan and Trust Com
pany. tho Colonial Trust Company and
the Trust Company OF America. This
money was put up as extra margins be-
fore the failure. Just how great it is can
only be conjectured. The opinion pre-

The preliminaries are be- ing arranged for extensive operations, and within very few months work will begin upon scale of fgreat magui- tude. All of the saterests in the vicinity have been consolidated aud are now included in the pew company which owns twelve miles of auriieruus ground along the Santo Domingo river, and seventeen thousand acres of land from which to take the wood and timber necessary for cOnstruc- tion and working of the operating plant.

Experts have estimated that it contains about forty millions of dollars in the yellow metal, which can be realized at cost of about seven millions.

his Intimate Friends.


Father Darcy. an Irish wit. was once
invited by man who was known as
an Ignorant braggart to visit new
and beautiful house which the person,
who had become wealthy suddenly.
had bought With more than his usual
pomposity the host dragged the priest
over the place and expatinted on the
excellence of everything that he own
ed. Finally they reached the immense
library, where there were thousands OF
volumes, all splendid in binding. The
host sank into one of the great leather
covered chairs with n sigh of content-
ment and exclaimed:
"But. after NIL father. what is all
this luxury compared with my favor
ties here? The other rooms maybe give
pleasure to my wife and daughters.
but this is my Dlace-rlght here among
these books. which are my frleads.
And these here on the esk"--polnting
to a score of Hne volumes-"are what
I may call my most intimate friends"
Father Darcy got up and examined
one of them. wien broad grin spread
over his good natured face.
"WelI. It's glad am to see that you
never cut your Intimate friendsy' he
exclaimed.

rlr. Rouss as a Musician.
A Newspaper Says He Praotiees stz Hours
a Day At a Piano.
From the wlnchestor start

Under the head of About Noted Peo-
pie. the Baltimore American makes one
of the most unkindest cuts Of all at Win,
chester's friend, Mr.. Charles Broadway
Rouss. It however only serves to show
how unreliable the paragraphers in some
newspapers are.
This particular paper accuses Mr.
Rouss OF being musician--a piano
player The American in a recent issue
says Mr.. Charles b. Rouss the blind
New York millionaire. is an enthusiastic
musician, ard spends six hours per day
at the piano"
No doubt when the Americans state
ment'is read to Mr.. Rouss he will laugh
heartily at it. The nearest approach to
piano that Mr.. Rouss can be accused
of playing upon, is a g cash register. . and
the music he evolves therefrom is ssweeter
than the most soulful strains of the best
parlor grand. Mr. Rouss was pioneer
with the cash register. but when it comes
to accusing him with lingering the ivory
keys of piano. he doubtless will unite
IN disavowal of any such time-wasting
dissipation.
But with the keyboard of the cash
register he is a whole musicale in him
self; he is the artist and the stage mana
ger. He has now been playing for ttir-
ty consecutive years at his Music Hall on
Broadway, and at every performance he
always has crowded house. With the
instrument that he plays on he has
earned more money than Padereski ever
saw. and if ne wanted TO he could easily
retire on his lanrels and mis- money. as he
has earned much greater measure Of
each than usually falls to the lot of one
man.
AT a cash register recital, Mr. Rouss is
the genius of the age. but as musician
and a piano player. as the American says
of him. he is not there.
