We're always at the bottom of bars and
benches, where the stream had once
deposited its gold and left it on finding
a different and lower channel, The
greatest values lay, as a rule, in the
lowest parts where they We're least ac-
cessibIe. Millions have been spent in
getting at these gold reserves by taking
the stream out of its bed, where its
size made this possible and in building
wing dams around small areas of river
beds during low water, the enclosed
space being pumped out and worked.
Millions have been recovered in this
way but only a small fraction of the
beds of the present streams has been
worked. Only partial success has at
tended the use of dredges, as the bed
rock was not disturbed. The latest plan
involves a big floating plant provided
with power and machinery, the chief
feature being a large caisson, kept
clear of water by air pressure in the
usual way, which can be rapidly sunk
through a deep bed of gravel to the bed
rock. The process, as it has been de-
veloped on the Mokelumne, Is an econ
omical success. If it remains success
under varying conditions, as it prom
ises to do, millions Of dollars worth OF
California gold, not obtainable in any
other way, will be added to the gold
product Of the State.

| The action Of the Interstate Com
merce commission in granting to the
railroads an extension of time within
which to comply with the provisions of
the 'safety-appliance act" of 1898 is
sharply criticised. This is the second
extension When congress ordered that
merce unless provided with brakes so
that its speed could be controlled from
the engine and with couplers that would
join automatically to do away with the
danger of going between cars 1t allowed
the railroads five years in which to COM
ply with these provisions. That time
expired January FIRST 1898. The rail-
roads petitioned for more time, and the
commission gave them two years extern
sion, which brought the date up to the
first of this month and gave the roads
seven years. Last month the roads petit
toned again, and the commission grant
ed them seven months more. or until
August first.
1t is urged that all the railroads have
had ample time in which to comply
with the act. On the other hand, the
magnitude Of the job Is pointed out and
it is asserted that fair progress has been
made. The total mileage of the United
Cfo+ for
There was one passenger coach to every
six miles of road, or 33,003 in ak There
were nearly thirty-fve freight cars to
every five miles of road, or 1,264,646 in
all. The total of cars to be equipped
with automatic couplers and other safe
ty appliances was therefore 1,297,649. 1t
is claimed that it was physical impos-
sibility to equip 1,297649 cars with safe
ty appliances within the time specified
by the act, unless the railroads should
go entirely out Of the transportation
business while the work was being done
1t was not possible for the roads to
equip the cars while in transit, and the
increase in traffic has been so enormous
during the last three years that few
cars could be released and sent into
shops for this purpose. An unreasona-
BILE enforcement of the law would have
resulted in withdrawing from interstate
traffic large number of freight cars,
which would have worked serious hard
ship to the industrial interests of the
country. 1t was also impossible to OBJ
tain the material necessary for the
equipment of SO many cars in such
short time.
Plausible but in the year ending July
1, 1898, 279 persons were killed and 6,9SS
persons We're injured in the coupling
and uncoupling of cars. There should
be no more delay if it is possible to
avoid it. Of course business is business,
but human beings who help carry on
business are still entitled to some con-

fanciful types. OF it are whole cos

skirts are very useful. They cleanse,
they chalk over spots, they go with
anything. 1t Is as trimming, however,
that this fancy presents the best

FASHION NOTES.
White Cloth In High Favor

The current vogue for cloth has
ruled for long time and is going to
die hard Combinations of cloth with
silk and with velvet are stylish, true,
but they haven't yet made developments
that indicate the downfall of cloth.
Just now there Is pronounced favor for
cloth trimmings, white cloth being the
stylish medium. Its use Is widespread.
In millinery 1t has it's own exclusive
vogue. A hat Of white cloth stitched
with green and trimmed with big
wheel of green panne velvet was an
example Of its employment and hand

feet Of a high tide on 10000 acres of Es-
sex soil The salt water injury lasts,
according to various authorities, from
FIVE to twenty wears. After the water
had run off it was found that there was
per cent of the salt in the soil, twenty
times the normal amount, but not di-
rectly injurious. The damage seems to
be chiefly due to the entire destruction
of the earth worms. The 1898 crop was
poor, and last year the state of the soil
was also unsatisfactory, still earth
worms began to appear and nine
tenths of the salt has been washed out
by rain. Apparently the clay has be-

The future Of Puerto Rico Is attrac.

Of the Department of Agriculture who
has been studying the conditions in the
island. Mr. Cook does not advise peo-
pie without capital to go there at pres

for profitable farming are great. Trop-
ical fruits and plant products, the like
of which we import to the value of $10,-

and the island is capable of raising one
half of our coffee supply, for which we

The statement that the British army
is largely made up of Irishmen is de-
MED by the Boston Transcript, which
gives these figures: On January /, 1893,
out Of 212393 officers and men consti-
tuting the British regular army, 1856
were natives Of England; 16,4S5 were
born in Scotland and 1884 were born
in ireland. OF the rest, S,275 were ma
tives of India and the colonies; 142 for
eigners; and the nativity Of 1851 was
not reported 1t will be seen that
rather less than 10 per cent. of the Brit
ieh soldiers were Irish.
