Hector McRae, manager for the
Boundary Greek Mining and Milling
Company, has received the smelter re
turns from car of ore shipped from
the Gold Bug, one of the properties of
the company, which is located near
Greenwood. The value of the ore per
ton was as follows: Gold, 3.72 ounces,
$74.40; silver, 100 ounces, $75.40; lead,
IL per cent, $40. Total gross values
for the car. $2,95S. This is the highest
grade ore yet shipped from the BOun-
Diary country.

in use will be thus superseded, and the
ore placed in the mill more econoni-

DEwEY's NEW OFFICE.


Washington, March 16.-To increase
the efficiency of the navy and to prepare
the service for operations in case of wal
Secretary Long has decided to organize
what will probably be known as policy
board, of which Admiral George Dewey
will be president.
The formal order announcing the crea.
ton of the board and giving instructions
as to its membership and duties will be
issued in few days.
The order specifies that the ipcumbents
of these positions shall always be attach
ed to the board: The admiral of the navy,
the chief of the bureau of navigation, the
chief of the Office of naval intelligence
and the president of the naval war col
lege.
The officers holding the foregoing posi-
tons are Admiral George Dewey, Rear
Admiral A. s. Crowninshield, Captain
Charles d. Sigsbec and Captain Charles
III. Stockton. There are five other mem
bers of the board whose rank is desig-
mated, and officers holding such rank will
be ordered to report for duty as members
of the board
The remaining five members will be Sc
lected by Secretary Long after the orders
have been issued. Naval officers who are
acquainted with the fact of the proposed
organization of the board believe that
Rear Admiral Sampson will be designat-
ed as member and that Rear Admiral
*. 5. Barker, commandant at the navy
yard at Norfolk, will also be attached to
It. Captain Il. ID. Evans, Captain III. c..
Taylor and Captain #. e. Chadwick are
also spoken of in connection with the
Board
Duties of the Board.
The board is expected to devise plans
ef strategy. to arrange for the distribu-
ton of ships and the strength of vessels
on foreign stations and to take all need
full measures for the defense of the Unit
ed States in time of war.
1t will assemble in Washington once
every month and will make recommended
tions to Secretary Long To leave Ad-
miral Dewey unrestricted in his move
ments the order prescribes that in case of
his absence the chief of the bureau of
navigation shall act as president, and in
the absence of both officials then the
chief of the Office of naval intelligence
shall serve in this capacity.
There is a disposition on the part of
naval officers to believe that the boards
duties will be eventually enlarged until it
will consider all important naval ques-
tions which may come before the depart
ment
1t is not believed that the department
has yet consulted with Admiral Dewey
as to his acceptance of the duty of presi-
dent of the policy board, but the depart
ment believes that he will accept it, espe-
cially as he is not now on active service.

one where he is receiving about $14O
month He has been recommended
by the superintendent for whom he
was working for promotion. The
recommendation states that he is
skillful, obliging and that he never
touches liquor.
The superintendent then went on to
speak of the different meetings held
and the different classes reached by
various meetings. He explained IN
detail the work of the mothers meet
ings and of the woodward. In con-
nection with the latter he stated that
many Of the men who came there for
relief were of we'll ordered intelll-
gence, including professional men and

purpose of making profit but to pro-
vide labor for the unemployed. 1t

it's operation except that it pays no
rent nor for superintendent.
In the afternoon Rev. f. III. Jacobs
conducted very interesting evanRe-
listic service in the Mission. In the
evening, the meeting opened with a
testimony meeting for those who have
been helped by the Mission. The Rev.
#. H. Jacobs was in charge of the
music and sang with great acceptance,

of the evening. After congratulating
the Rev. DR.. Erdman, upon the happy
auspices attending the 3lst anniversary

said, was evidently carrying out the
commands of the Master as to
missions, the referred to the work of
the Market Street Mission as being
particularly in the line of work which
Christ followed when upon earth,
carrying his gospel to the poor and
neglected. Mr.. Halls address was
based upon the text found in Matthew
6 :33-'' Seek ye first the kingdom of
God and His righteousness; and all
these things shall be added unto you. ("
He is an earnest speaker who makes
frequent use of apt illustrations to
elucidate and carry home his point.

WOULD BENEFIT OUR CITY,

| Morristown is to be heartily con-
graduated on the recent visit of DR..
Bradford and Col. Howard, of Mont
clair. Their interesting presentation OF
the work of the "Outlook Club" car
not fail to produce practical result.
and should we be so fortunate as tc
succeed in affecting a similar organiza-
ton we shall have great reason to
thank DR.. Fox for bringing these gen
tlemen to us.
In any attempts which may be made
to organize club on the plans sug-
gested by our friends from Montclair,
several matters will need to be care
fully kept in mind First of all, the
meetings of such club should not
be regarded in any sense as a social
function =" The sole idea is intel
lectual improvement and literary cul-
ture, and those who rally to the
standard of such movement must
come with the distinct idea that they
seek to gain knowledge, to broaden
their intellectual vision. to elevate
their taste, and to stimulate their
habits of thought on literary and
scientific lines.
Another feature to be noticed is
that we should seek to obtain as
speakers the very best men whom we
can secure in the various departments
of science and literature. The Mont
clair Club began its meetings with
the expectation of discussing i'm
portant questions simply among its
own membership but as Col. Howard
clearly pointed out, this plan soon
proved failure, as the members did
not care to come together to hear
what "Neighbor Jones" thought on
either the religious or political out
look, for they thought they knew as
much about the matter themselves.
1t was then decided to secure
specialists in various departments,
and this plan has given to the Out
look Club" its unique character, and
its exceptional success.
Another point to be consider is the
question of what topics it would be
wise to consider at the early meetings
of such club. Without attempting
to offer specific suggestions we may at
least say that subjects which will
command the attention and hold the
interest of club which has been ten
years in existence may prove of far
less interest to new organization,
feeling it's way into realms of intel
lectual activity. which to some of its
members may be in large degree
But whatever may be
the outcome of the meeting at the
home of DR.. Fox, we are
sure that it will result in stimulating
the intellectual life of Morristown,
and we confidentially look forward to
of most profitable and en-
joyable character in the near future.

THE GOLD STANDARD.

The Republican party has written
the gold standard on the statute books
of the United States. 1t pledged it.
self to do this at st. Louis in 1896 and
it has fulfilled its pledge at the very
earliest possible moment. 1t could
not fulfill its pledge at the last Con-
gress for it controlled but one branch,
the Senate not having a majority of
Republicans or of gold standard men,
counting the gold Democrats then
holding seats in that body. So two
years were lost, but having control of
the executive branch of the Govern
munt no loss came to the country by
the delay, as would have been the case
had Mr.. Bryan been elected President
four years ago.
The Republican party made two
pledges to the country in its st.
Louis platform. One was to enact q
tariff law that should restore the
prosperity the country lost by four

SEWERS NEEDED.

During the recent threatened cpl
demic, the attention of our citizens
has been directed in very marked
manner to the lack of proper sewage
system. While smallpox is not as are
some other diseases, a direct result of
the want of proper sanitary arrange
ments, there can be no doubt that it
is much more difficult to prevent the
spread of infection as things are now
than if we had proper arrangements
for the disposal of waste matter. At
present, Morristown is entirely free
from zymotic diseases, such as diph-
liberia, typhoid and cholera, but the
conditions exist under which these
diseases are readily produced.
By way of illustration we quote
from recent report of the State
Board of Health of Connecticut
"Thirty four per cent. of the deaths
which occurred in New Haven in one
month were caused by zymotic dis
eases. In every instance investigated,
there were found i'll ventilated privy-
vaults or cesspools.
"These diseases have cause that
is removable; and they are allowed to
exist only by negligence of house
holders, and the lack of intelligent
and efficient action in towns and vii
lagos, as in the more crowded. y
As far as can be seen, the effect of
good sewerage has been to reduce the
general death-rate, especially by the
reduction of deaths from typhoid and
from cholera (and in some towns from
diarrhoea), but partly, in all proba-
bility, by general improvement of the
health The action has been, in fact,
very much in the direction we might
have anticipated.

The result in Chatham is not to be
greatly deplored. Director Merritt B.
Lum, who has kept himself well in
front by ways peculiar to himself, and
who obtained his denomination by
artful manipulation, has been defeated
in Republican stronghold. His re-
tirement to private life will be dis
tinct gain both to the county and the
Republican party. Mr.. Lum's right
bower, the Passaic Township Croker,
ran narrow escape from sharing his
friends fate. Next time he will
