Journal-Miner: There are three men at work on the Garcia property under the direction of Prt sident Fitz- gerald. A depth Of three hundred feet has been attained at this mine. The shaft is timbered and the work ings are new and of modern design. The property is in shape to handle big strike, if such thing occurs in the further development of the mine. At present there is not a sufficient quantity of ore to keep the l0-stamp mill in operation. MT. Fitzgerald said that the ore In the lowest work ings of his mine was richer than any encountered above and he felt very much encouraged to continue sinking on the property. He hopes to en- counter quantity of ore to keep the mill in constant opeT ation. The mine has produced considerable gold in it's day, and became we'll known through the rich specimens of gold ore taken from the workings. In the district it is regarded as good prospect, and Mir Fitzgerald has the best wishes of the mining men.

GOOD IMITATION OF SURF.
It Was Only the HOusemaid's Broom
ON the Stairs, How.

$50 you have gone out on the north shore

side young man to friend who had gone
with his family to Kenilworth to spend
the summer, relates the Chicago Chronicle.
eyes, we have taken a house for the sum-
mer close to the edge of the lake and I tell
you it is bully, immense. 1t is great, for the
old man has improved in health out there
till he is getting as frisky as a schoolboy-
He said before we moved that If he could
only get where he could hear the surf when
he woke up mornings that it would do him
a world of good. The first morning after we
got there he woke up about FIVE clock and
called out to mother, who was still asleep:
Say, ma, do you hear that surf coming
in on the shore? Isn't that the grandest
thing you ever heard?'
MA protested that she didn't hear any
surf and wasn't listening for any. Father
sighed and went to sleep again, lulled by the
music of what he declared was the surf.
The door of his room was open and he SIM
ply heard the swish of our little housemaid' s
broom over the carpet downstairs. She gets
up early every morning to do the front
rooms and her broom makes the finest imi-
tation of the surf you ever heard.
"Now, if pa wakes up when it isn't sweep
ing day and kicks because there isn't any
surf on ma just steps to the speaking tube
in the next room and tells Martha to sweep
up a little surf and father is soon asleep
again."
