CONVERSATION AT A DINNER.

During the evening the conversation
turned the most suitable recreation
for men who worked with their brains,
especially men in public life. The diplo-
mat confessed that he found out door
physical recreation in riding ana indoor
in fencing. The latter sport, he declared,
was the proper relaxation for men whose
muscles were in danger of becoming Set.
For mental recreation he preferred firt-
ing to anything more exhausting. His
candor was greeted with uproarious
laughter.

GOLD MINES OF BOHEMIA.
An Old District In Oregon Again At
tracing Attention.

The Bohemia region. in Oregon, is sit
uated al an altitude Of between 500 ana
5000 feet above sea, along the crest OF
the CalapOoya mountains, and upon ooth
slopes. about thirty-five miles southeast
Of Cottage Grove, from which point II
may be reached by good wagon road up
Row river. The mines cluster around
Bohemia peak. and lie close to the crest
OF the Caiapooya mountains, where II
forms the divide between Steamboat
creek flowing south into the Umpqua,
and Sharp creek with Frank Brass creek,
flowing north into Row river and the
Nallametts.
The Bohemia mining region was dis
covered according to DR., w. w. Ogles-
Brass. IN August. 1858. The region was
named from James Johnson, also called
Bohemia Johnson, who, with George Ram
sey. reached 1t in 1863 from Roseourg
By way Of the north fork OF Umpqua
river and Steamboat and City creeks.
Free gold was found in a small vein
near the headwaters OF city creek, but
gave out at depth OF six feet. This
discovery brought many prospectors.
Bird Farfier discovered what. by pur-
chase. became later the Knott claim,
where fve-stamp mill was put up In
B75. IT shut down In 1871. and the Boz
hernia region was almost forgotten until
Interest In IL was revived by DIR. w. w.
Ogiesny. o. =. Adams and others in 1891.
The first ledge OF Importance. located
the same year. was the Musick which
has been running a fye-stamp mill al
most continuously ever since. In 1892
the Annie-since called the Noonday--was
opened. The Champion put IN a ten-stamp
mill In 1895 and the MONDAY r. twenty
stamp mill I'm 1896. over a hundred claims
have been located In the district.
Some OF the statistics on output and
capacity Of machinery reported are based
upon figures OF 1898 The output of Bo-
hernia between 1897 shows constant
good increase from year to year. In
1898 the output was $4,000. That was In
creased to $4,000 by 1897, and up to 1900
the increase has been proportionate

More License Fee Wanted.

| Saloonkeepers will be considerably
interested in a decision just received
from the commissioner of internal
revenue at Washington.
The effect of the new ruling is that
cocktails and other mixed drinks
must be made while the customer is
waiting for them, unless the saloon
man pays license as rectifier, which
costs him 800 year more than the
usual revenue tax.
Under the old law retailer might
mix his liquors to suit himself and
have whole shelf full of bottled
cocktails, provided he did not put
them in vessel holding over five
gallons, without paying the addition
al tax. Otherwise he became recti-
fer and was subject to the rectifiers
tax.
Under the new rule, however, if the
saloon man mixes whiskey or other
distilled spirits with coloring matter
or materials of any kind, changing it
into compound liquor. in advance of
orders, even in quantities of less than
five gallons. lie makes himself liable
to the tax, to say nothing of the pen
atty. In other words he cannot mix
cocktails in any quantity and keep
them on hand in bottles or jugs for
sale to customers. He is, however,
allowed to mix the drinks at the time
ordered, either by the drink, bottle or
jug.
Another effect of the ruling is TO
prohibit retailers from tampering
with distilled liquors when received
from the wholesaler. In other words
they are not allowed to break original
packages. Frequently, under the old
method, retailer would receive an
invoice of high grade goods. and mix
it with liquor of poorer quality and
color or dilute it. That practice is
against the law now, and a saloon
keeper makes himself liable to a
heavy fine il he Hampers with whiskey
or brandy in original packages.

with John G. McGreevy as umpire
was played from start to finish with a
great deal of interest. The Eveleth
! boys, for want of their manager, DR..
| LenOnt made some serious errors in
placing their men. Had the boys
been placed differently the score
would no doubt have been much
smaller. However, Ely has team of
ball players that can readily face any
thing in the county. The northern
team is strong at every point and
with constant practice they have
reached quite d heighth of perfection.
Our boys here, however played splen-
aid ball, with the exception of Il few
errors that was made
Lyons, Wilson and Harrington
played good ball and might have
done better had their positions been
different. The score at the close of
the ninth inning stood l to 10 in
favor of the home players. One
pleasant feature of the game was the
absence of dispute. Little wrang-
| ling occurred and Con Sullivan, the
Ely catcher land there are none
better astonished his friends. Con,
having considerable of the emerald
tinge, is licensed to talk more than
the other members Of the team, but
as matter of fact last Sunday Con
was a perfect gentleman. The Ely
boys will visit Eveleth on August
| 5th.''
