Why He LIKES MUSIC.

a Pkysician Whose ReputatiOn - q
Critic Was BLASTED.
There's physician ia Baltimore who
adores music. His taste. to be sure.
runs rather to ..sOld Black Joe" ..Su-
swannee River" and such classics, but
still any sort OF music will do, and he
listens to 1t all ecstatically and with d
properly intelligent look on his face.
It was therefore believed that he had
q fine taste for harmony. and his repu-
tation as critic was established and
grew apace as regulations will. good or
bad.
The other evening as his daughter
approached the house in which this
physician lived she heard the strains
of Home, Sweet Home" proceeding
from the library.
Fathers at it again. she said to
herself softly. Il wonder who he has
coerced into playing for him now?''
A. glance disclosed the fact that he
had bribed three street musicians. two
violinists and a harpist into giving
him a private recital. They finished
the air Just as the young woman enter
ed. and the physician turned to her
with q beaming face. That Nearer.

It was the first time he had commit
ted himself on the subject of tunes"
and his glory began to diminish from
that moment, for his daughter told the
incident as what she considered an ex-
cellents joke.
Now the worthy man says that he
likes music solely as an incentive to
thought and listens to It when he wish
es to solve some knotty problem OF ar
terry or bones. just as those who suffer
from Insomnia 60 to church and listen

Mining Activity

During the past year there has been
more activity in mining ia this section
than for many years past. At the pres
ent time there are many claims located
near this city and several of them pr, m
Use big fortunes.
The sale of the copper claim held by
Barrett & Kennedy last week put now
life into the proSnectors and it il safe TO
say that few claims will be jumped on
New Years. Most of the clai ms held in
this section are in the hands of poor men
and the wolk is necessarily slow.
Most of the mine owner, have become
acquainted with the fact that mere hole
in the ground don't invite capital and are
placing their property in condition that
will invite thorough inspection. BY the
opening of spring dozen or mere claims
Of worth will he developed and ii is safe
to say that parties holding claims with
ore i'll sight will have no difficulty IN dis
posing o. their pro erty.
The day is past when "a location consti-
tutes mine and big prices were realities
The prospcctor must have a Wei opened
mine and I've content with a reasonable
purchase price. As the miners of this
section realize this condition they are
putting ti.eir property in good order and
reasonable offers will not be refused.
The activity in mining is a good indica-
ton and more money will come out Of
the mountains in this section during the
next ten years than has been produced in
the past twenty.
