If he may set his foot abroad
Along the woodSy outland way.

There IS no thing in all the land
That does not seem articulate;
The grasses smile. and understand
The vireo calling to his mate.
Tall pinc-topS unto pine-tops breathe
In sighings murmurouS as the sea;
And through the birChen copse beneath
There runs fiuting harmony.
In the haif-dusks of tangled green
The pale wild roses censor burns,
And in each hollow may be seen
The fragile laceries of the ferns.
While over all. for all to share.
Placid and pure and wide and high.

Broods motEerly Gods open sky.

There is still a lumber famine in
town. Same old story. snot a tick to

There is an item going the rounds Of
the press ''empty whisky barrels bring

gallon barrels have sold here for 81, but
no higher.
Fifteen car loads Of Tonopah ore
was shipped from Sodaville to Selby
smelling works since last Saturday.
Sacked ore is piled all over the hills
here waiting for teams to haul 1t to
Sodaville. If ore continues to come
out Of the mines the way 1t is coming
at present 1t will take about three rail-
road trains every day TO transport 1t.
The Clark shaft during the past few
weeks has been producing ore to the
value Of about $500 per ton. 1t has
heretofore been producing $3.50 ore
steadily. but recently the ore has i'm
proved about 500 per ton in value
This shaft is o5 feet deep, and is at
present producing ore Of the gross val
ue Of $1,000 daily in the sinking of it.
