Why Girls Should Be Thankful.

Fifty years ago the life of the aver
age girl was commonplace and
dreary to the last degree. She was
allowed very little education and
was encouraged to be delicate be-
cause it was considered ladylIke
Her one aim and object in life was
to get married. snd if she failed in
THAI she was deeply disgraced and
marked for shame and contempt as
an "old maid"
Today she has the high privilege
and blessed right of earning her own
living. This makes her independent,
and she can remain single until love
prompts her to marry. If she never
marries, no one despises her. The
"oldmaid" has disappeared com
pletely, and in her place we have the
breezy, independent, up to date,
athletic and we'll gowned bachelor
girl, who is succeeding in business
life or profession and asks neither
pity nor fayors from her fellow men
Should not girls be thankful.

Ore Deposits.

The origin of ore deposits and
mode of deposition can be conven-
iently observed at Steamboat
Springs, Nevada, where clouds of
steam issue from many vents, over
bare rocky space half mile long,
in a narrow valley lined by volcanic
ridges on each side. The vents are
separated but occur in parallel lines,
showing that they are connected bv
assures, filled with opaline quartz,
waiter issuing from a narrow mid
die crevice. Some are wholly filled
with quartz and have become true
quartz-hssure veins. Some of these
larger tissures are half mile long,
a foot wide,-@open and xpaEallsl.
about % feet apart, and descending
downward to the bottom of the
quartz crust 80 feet, can be followed
no farther because they have de-
posted quartz in such abundance as
to cover up their original vents in
the underlying rock. Water does
not issue from all the assures, but
can be seen and heard 8 or 10 feet
below in violent agitation from
steam and carbonic acid gas. The
quartz filling these assures in the
hottest parts is gelatinous, IN others
SPongy, and in others hard, or in
layers agate chalcedony or sugar
quartz. Everywhere there is the
same distinct ribbon or banded
structure, resulting from successive
LAYERS of quartz being laid on the
sides of the assure by watery solu-
tions. The quartz in these assures
contains sulphides of iron, copper
cinnabar and even free gold. The
metallic contents, as in old fssure
veins, are in much less proportion
than the quartz veinstone.-COpper,

THE death of Col. NJ. L. DeMalher

THE death of Col. NJ l.. DEM alher
which occurred at Harrison, Ark,
recently, is a distinct loss to the min
eral industry of the Missouri-Kan-
sas-Arkansas region. The son of an
officer in the French navy, he was
sent to Europe to finish his cduca-
ton, and for some years studied at
leading universities, making geology
a speciality. He returned to America
in time to become a Colonel in the
confederate army, and subsequently
devoted his energies to journalism
and scientific research, particularly
TO mineralogv. His extensive writ
ings on the North Arkansas zinc
fields for the HARRISON TIMES will
make the files of that journal yalu-
able for years to come He was well
known and respected for his attain
ment as a man of science, and his
genial disposition won for him many
warm friends.-JopHn News-Herald.

to engage, mainly at their own ex-
pense, in the ardous undertaking of
promoting the active development

1t was principally the failure of he
authorities to bring into prominence
the zinc resources OF the state, which
led to the picking up of the dropped
threads of long g-ago-establishcd dis
cOveries in the Arkansas mineral
field But the task is not half done,
and at best Involves both sacrifice
and exposure; it has its compensa-
ton, however, in the fact that the
effort to bring the zinc resources of
the state into favorable notice has
been successful; and the day of fru-
itiOn for Arkansas hornev-handed
miners and PrUspectors no longer de-
layed because of a lack of trans
pOrtation or an effort on the part OF
the newspapers both at home and
abroad to become sponsors for their
individual discoveries, or for the dis
coveries of the mineral territory as
whole.
In times gone by it has been re-
marked bv self-sufficient critics that
the HARRISON TIMES lost much of its
value as local paper because a very
large part of its space was devoted
to the zinc resources of the section.
Now the local paper of the field is in
clined to measure its value by its
ability to initiate the TIMES in this
respect.

However, taking into consideration
the fact that a cablegram was received
by the state department Yesterday

conclusion was reached that Cen

The answer to that question. il is

answer, or rather a synopsis of II, was
not eabled TO Gen. Chaffee until the
