mill They would prefer to reject most of this wall rock, but it would take more time and ex- penSe than it does to mill it. and there is a chance of some of it containing gold From these 80 tons of rock crushed daily the average product is perhaps S48,000 worth of gold per month. Some months they have produced as high as S90.000.
 In the region of the Fortuna mine the forma- tionS appear to be wholly of mica slate and hornblende slate, with some arenaccous layers like old micaceous sandstones and quartziteS The mine is surrounded by black hornblendic states and mica states. dipping southward and southwestward at an angle of about 45 degrees and these states are very evenly laminated ridge after ridge. This is apparently con- tinuous body stretching to distance of two or three miles, and showing thickness at right angles to the stratifcation of no less than 5000 or 5000, or perhaps 10000 feet and there is no evidence whatever of plication. The stratifica- tion is fiat and as regular as the leaves of a book. Usually we detect more or less plicatiOn or folding in such a section but there is no evi dence of any folding whatever in this series. There is, however, great difference in the composition of the layers of these rocky ridges, now all turned black upon the surface-a condi-
 
 rock outcrops along the lower Colorado, and the origin of which, though discussed by Humboldt after noting similar blackening of the rocks along the Orinoco, has not yet been satisfactory explained. This general blackening of the sur face hides the changes of composition, which may be noted by careful and close inspection.
 In some places hornblendic states are more developed than the mica slate, and at others the micaceouS schistose characters predominate and are accompanied by layers of Quartzite in- terieaved and three or four feet in thickness, sometimes three or four inches, and some foliated quartz having little films of mica in it. These quartz beds are members of the series, but have been located as ledges and, it is claimed, are gold bearing. The quartz has little or no resemblance to vein quartz, and yet at several points in the outcrop there are stains of green color, apparently from the decomposi- tion of ore like that which has given green stains to the croppings of the Fortuna.
 Several dike-like seams or veins of white al- bite or soda feldspar cut directly across the bedding of the mica slate series These feldspa- thic dikes do not appear to have any relation to the ore bearing vein or lode of the Fortuna. These dilSes are extremely irregular and appear regular strata.
 Coarse granite was noted at the northern point of the Gila range along the railroad, but no evidences were found of the existence of stratifed Paleozoic or secondary rocks. The mica Slates series referred to is the Huronian or Archaan

AT SAN JUAN.

A story of Roosevelt and an Arizona Rough Rider is going the rounds of the press, and it is so good an illustration of typical Arizona pluck that we publish it. The RoughRider referred to won @ commission in the regular army and is now doing duty in the Philippines. Here is the story :;
 During the storming of San Juan hill, said Governor Roose- welt, while remarking on the ex~ treme heat as he journeyed through Kansas, '1 was request ed by one of my men to betake myself to the very hottest region, but when it comes a hot day I always congratulate myself that I didn't go."
 There was young fellow from Arizona, Rugby by name, who was shot straight across the top of the head. I happened to over take him, and saw the way the blood was streaming down his, face that he was in-no condition to stay in the front. Riding up by his side I tapped him on the arm and said, you go to the rear
 "Well, I'll never forget the face that fellow turned toward me. It was one mass of blood, and this added horrible fierceneSS to the look he gave me.
 You go to hell, he said as he struck out on a run up the hill.
 "I couldn't forget such Q fellow and got him a commission in the regular army. He is now in the Philippines.

Still More CounterfeIting.

The Secret Service has unearthed an- other band of counterfeiters and secured a large quantity of bogus bills, which are so cleverly executed that the aver age person would never suspect them of being spurious. Things of great value are always selected by eounterfeiters for imitation. notably the celebrated Hos- tetter's Stomach Bitters, which has many imitators but no equals for indi- gestion, dyspepsia, constipation, ner- vousness and general debility. The Bitters sets things right in the stomach, and when the stomach is in good order it makes good blood and plenty of it.. In this manner the Bitters get at the seat ot strength and vitality, and restore vigor to the weak and debilitated. Be- ware of commercials when buying.

ADVANCE IN SALARIES.
The average salary of both men and

from 1875 to $43.61 in the same term of

the year ending July 1899, more has
been accomplished than in any preced-

THE COMING TWENTY FIVE
YEARS
There are signs that the next twenty
five years will place upon school. mana
gers and teachers tasks calling for
In, -
ucation for children must be attained,
and this will make necessary to give
close attention to another class Of Ques-
tions hardly less difficult than those
which have already been solved Such
are:
l. Introduction Of skilled supervision
In which this commonwealth Is far be-
hind the other states of New England.
2. The general substitution Of town for
district management. In this particu-
lar we are at variance with all other
states. In New England there are
1867 towns, and of these 1,456 are under
the town system, leaving 101 under the
district system. Eighty-one of the 101
are In Connecticut.
3. A change In High school education
teaching qualification,
There are other questions more dis
tinctly educational Such are:
l. The adjustment and balance of
studies so as to form a well-founded
and planned whole extending through
out the entire period of school life.
2. The closer examination of the edu-
cational values Of the different subjects
of instruction and their claim to place
in fitting education. Especially is it
necessary to introduce all scholars to
science, and to inculcate the scientific
habit of mind.
3. The introduction Of well-defned
usefulness into all school work.
4. The adaptation of school instruc-
ton to the pursuits Of the people, which I
involves elementary technical educa-
ton.

REWARDS FOR MOTORMEN.
A New Plan Adopted by the Winchester
Avenue Road

A New Plan Adopted by the Winchester
Avenue Road
The motormen of the Winchester ave-
nue. road have, besides the general de-
sire to perform their work without hav-
ing any trouble, an added incentive to
steer clear of accidents, If possible Last
year Superintendent Pond inaugurated
new plan which met with great favor
among the motormen, and furnished the
incentive referred to above Something
over a year ago Mr.. Pond announced
that at the end of the year $500 in cash
would be distributed among those mo-
tormen in the employ of the road who
had no accidents with their cars during
the year. This amount was last year
divided among thirty motormen, each
receiving $40 as a reward for his great
care in avoiding accidents. 1t is said
that some of the most careful men on
the road failed to get q share of the re-
ward because Of their cars having been
involved In unavoidable accidents. In
the main, however, the new plan has
been found to work most satisfactorily
and with profit to the company. There
is said to be consldera Bile rivalry among
the motormen as to who shall come in
for the distribution Of the reward at the
end of the year. Whether or not this
plan will be continued on the road since
the recent change in ownership Is not
known.
