An Idea OF the Cost % a visit In the
Exposition.

Even those who are not contem.
plating a trip to the Paris Exposi-
tion will be interested in knowing
what ii would be likely to cost an
economically disposed person to visit
the French metropolis and see all
sights that are worth seeing. Les.
lies Weekly thus tells how ii may
be done:
There is such y thing as q very
excellent second-class ticket, with
good rooms and really abundant fare.
Many persons in comfortable circum.
stances habitually travel second
class on our great steamship lines,
and save Just about half the expense
OF the ocean journey. A first-class
round-trip ticket costs $50 and up
wards. and the Canadian lines and
some of our slow boats will make q
rate of little less. This means the
lowest first-class rate on good boat.
Some steamship lines will book you
through to Paris at a more reasona-
BILE rate. but sl75 will take you to
Paris from New York and home
again, and pay your steamer tips.
You can secure excellent lodgings
and three meals q day at thousands
of French boarding-houses which
are known as pensions, where your
expenses need not exceed one dollar
a day.
The cost of admission tickets to
the Exposition varies. No tickets
are sold at the entrances. All must
be bought of the vendors outside,
and IL one is willing to be a little
patient and not take the first offered,
he will be able to get ticket for
fifty five centimes, or eleven cents.
Before lO In the morning and after
6 at night the admission requires the
use of two tickets, and some days
four or five. Your expenses thus
far. you see, will not have mounted
up much beyond the cost of your
steamship ticket and steamship tips,
and il You are prepared, after hav-
ing seen the Exposition. to return
home after two weeks stay in Paris,
you will find that $3.50 will cover the
entire expense. But visitor would
be unjust to himself or herself to
limit a trip TO Paris to a single week
or two. If possible go up to Lon
don for another week. This can be
easily done for S25.

Anewspaperman, who had evidently
made an honest attempt to please all
of his subscribers, individually and
collectively, thus sums up his expert
ence with mankind: The editor who
can please everybody IS not fit for this
earth, but is entitled to wings. Human
nature is so constituted that some like
scandal, others don't; some like to see
others ripped up the back, others don't /;
some like to see fakes exposed, others
don't; some like to see the truth told
about others. others don't; some like
to take the paper seven or eight years
and never pay cent or miss an issue
and get mad and stop the paper if a
statement is sent, others don't. 1t is
some consolation to know that the Lord
himself Jailed to please everybody
while on earth.

THE wEDEKIND MINE.
Theories Advanced Accounting for
Its Richness.

The Reno Journal says; The Wede-
kind mine is the common talk about
town. Every one is interested in the
topic, yet no two men can be found
who agree upon the why and wherefore
OF this rich gold and silver deposit.
The stuff is queer that is extracted
from the prospect holes. and the reas-
ons advanced for its being there are
queerer still.
Some declare there is a deposit oi
silver chloride, kind Of cyanite,
which can only be accounted for in the
following manner: "a spring of water
flowing over or through silver-besring
ore takes up solution OF chloride OF
silver, and seeping through crevice is
acted upon by some formation in the
country rock which replaces the silver
in the water" This theory is shattered
when the fact is made known that
chloride of silver is not soluble in water.
To listen to the various theories is con-
fusing, and one will have to satisfy
himself in agreeing with all by disput-
ing none..
Nevertheless, the Wedekind mine is
rich one. 1t may be termed poor
mans claim, in that no great outlay OF
money is necessary in working the
mine. The ore is free milling and
solid enough to enable tunneling with
out timbering.
A Reno Gazette REP orter visited the
mine on Friday and thus describes
what he saw. The mine seems to be a
mountain of porphry, or perhaps more
properly speaking, dyke. Mr.. Wede-
kind has hole in the side OF the bill
out of, which be is taking a conglom-
crate formation and shipping it to the
Reno Reduction Works. He has al
ready shipped seven or eight tons Of
the stuff which assays over 5000 per
ton in gold and silver. 1t will be next
Wednesday, however, before he gets
the Reduction w Works' returns from
the ore handled there. He has started
a cut into the hill and proposes to tun-
mel in. The cut is about fifty feet long
and twelve or fifteen feet deep. lie is
following the pay stuff. The country
is located for four miles in every direc-
ton from the Wedekind find.

TRUSTS WILL NOT BE REGU
LATED.

The House Of Representative on
June | defeated the resolution pro.
viding for q Constitutional Amend
ment empowering Congress to regu-
late trusts. the Dem ocrats aud Pop
ulists voting against the measure
because its provisions were favorable
to the monopolies and opposed to
the best interests of the people.
In the debate which preceded the
vote Congressman Amos j. Cum
mings of New York said:
"Under the guise of an effort to
destroy trusts is really a measure
drawn in their interests. II is being
used to tide over Presidential cleo
tion. know it is alleged that Will
liam Jennings Bryan advocated q
Constitutional Amendment to down
trusts, but this no more resembles
the Amendment advocated by him
than deck of cards resembles the
Bible"
Congressman Newlands said he
agreed with the minority that the
proposed Constitutional Amend
ment was a makeshift, intended to
meet a political emergency and with
out serious intention of finally being
incorporated in the Constitution.
But he said he differed with the
minority as to what should be done.
He would vote for it because be be-
lieved the Federal Government
should have enlarged powers rather
than that it should not exercise any
power at all. He appealed to the
Democrats to join in passing the
resolution and sending it to the Re-
publican Senate, and let that body
take the responsibility OF defeating

In Wyoming this season results
have most satisfactorily demonstrated
that the steam shears add between
one-half a pound and pound to the
weight of each fleece and one>quarter
of an inch to the length of the wool
staple. This additional fibre length
takes, in mnay instances, the present
wool clips from the ranks of clothing
wools and lifts it to the grade of
staple wool. thus insuring an in
creased selling price of at least one

Nevada's Capital.
Senator Livingstone has received
word from Dan Stuart, the promoter OF
the Corbett-Fitzsimmons physical con-
test in this city, that pugilistic sky
rockets are again pointing toward Car

bring off a series OF tistic encounters in
this city along about the middle Of

on his string and is after Sharkey or

The Horton law proposition settles
fighting for New York; Chicago will

poets to construct an arena on his block

The Men Who Hesitate.

"Trust" methods were recently well
illustrated in the case OF the American
Smelling 4 Refining Co., in Colorado,
which was unable after many weeks
of controversy with producing miners
to determine whether it could or could
not pay 500 per ounce for gold. but
twenty-four hours after the Guggen-
helms had announced their intent to
pay that amount the trust managers
discovered that they could also do so.
The Guggenheims in Colorado seem
to be useful as discouragers OF hesi-
fancy.

HOW TO AVOID GRIP.

Ii doesn't make any difference
whether you call it grip, influenza or
plain cold in the head the best thing to
do about it is to avoid it.
Keep your feet dry and warm and
your body well fed. Avoid the night
air and see that your sitting room at
home and your Office down town are
not overheated.
Be ever so careful, as the measly
grip microbe may get you, anyhow,
II it does, the very bes. thing to do
is to go for physician and have him
prescribe for you.
If you have not time to see ply

take one every two or three hours.
This dose is for an adult. Amy drug

the best thing to do about the grip is
not to get it at all.
