OF INTEREST TO MINERS.

A Miners Inch-A miners inch
of water is variable value in
different States and localities; but
the most generally accepted value
and the one that applies to this
State is one and one-half cubic
feet flow per minute. A great
many different theories are ad
vanced as to the size of the hole
through which one inch will flow
under a certain number inches
pressure, none of which will be
correct under all conditions. The
simplest and easiest way for the
average miner or farmer to
measure a stream of small size is
to flow it into a barrel or vessel of
known size and note how many
gallons flow to the minute. Elev-
en- gallons per minute is miners
inch; for small spring, let the
water flow into an ordinary empty
oil can, each oil can full to the
minute will represent h-inch
of water very nearly; if a spring
will fill five oil cans full in a
minute, it is a 21a inch spring.
At this season of the year, a
large number of mines and mining

abandoned property legally and in
full conformity with law, such re-
locator will own, absolutely all inn
provements which he finds upon
such abandoned property relo-
Gated by him, that are fixtures.
This includes all buildings, hoist

vsunny?" There's always laugh lurk-

common cruelty. The young wife who

of the possessors of the newly

to skip over several phases in the
course of the.sevolution from the
useful to the purely ornamental.
One of our great writers on edu-

other two. If they were thorough
" educated in the history and
origin of the ceremonial institutions
abroad; if they were taught that
the retinues of servants in knee
breeches and plush forming part
of a nobleman's household were
the degenerate defendants, socio-
logically speaking, of the men-at-
arms; that his display and ex-
penditures were at one time the
necessary insignia of his military,
and later one of his political
powers; that they are survivals
and encumbrances that have out
lived their usefulness, and which
the noblemen would probably be
glad to shake off, then our newly
enriched would not be so anxious
to tangle himself up with the
imperiments of nobility until he
becomes as much their prisoner as
their proprietor. 1t would only
require little of the right kind of
study to make him choose the
highest, if not always the most
conspicuous, type abroad for imi-

EDUCATION OF
THE MILLIONAIRE.

In his paper entitled THE Edu-
cation of the Millionaire" which
appeared in the December Forum,
the Hon. Truxton Beale of Callfor-
MIA adduced some arguments which
proved him a keen student OF
political and social science and a
sharp analyst of human character
He does not blame the multi for
possessing dispropprtionate wealth,
but he takes him to task for spend
ing it in ways that are not bene-
fetal to society.
Conceding that the millionaire
has right to give himself and his
children any kind of an education
he sees fit, Mr.. Beale asserts that
he also owes it to society to make
the comprehension Of the following
propositions part of his eduCation:
That spendthrift expenditure is
improvishing, not enriching, so
ciety; that a demand for commod-
tiles is not a demand for labor, but
only determines its direction; that
loss of wealth to the public re-
suits by the diversion of capital
from productive to unproductive
channels; that in living as they do
they are making luxuries cheaper
but necessarieS dearer; that when
they, by deciding upon a channel
for their capital, set labor in motion
to produce something, it makes a
great difference to society whether
the thing produced has in itself
reproductive qualities-the differ
ence between an unoocupied place
and factory; that there never has
been any such thing as overpro-
duCtion, but that there has been
only disproportionate production;
that the only justification for the
diversion of capital from product
i've to an unproductive use, there
by drawing labor out of productive
into unproductive channels, is for
legitimate public purposes, includ-
ing the elevation of the pubic
taste; that wealth that goes to any
individual unearned must be the
intercepted earnings of others,
and that the only moral title the
recipient of it can have is based
upon his making good use of it and
OF the leisure that he acquires by
it; that tile phrase parasite of in
dustry" is descriptive of all those
who live in absolute idleness or
are devoted simply to sport; that
when Carlyle exclaimed, The
only monster on earth is an ldler,"
he meant to include all kinds of
trifling activity as well as idleness.
That these laws and axioms of
wealth, of which popular know
ledge has now become so important,
are not familiar either to the
"multis" or their critics, is Mr..
Beale's opinion, and he found war
rant for it in the defenses made by
the Newport set" when they were
accused of harming society by
their lavish expenditure. The most
prominent OF the leaders interview
ed stated that such expenditures
of money were better than keep
ing it i'll bank, and the expressions
of the others implied the same
thing. Thus it was shown how
little the economic side of the ques-
ton was understood.
"If our English writers on eco
nomcs, ~ says, Mr. Beale, "had ta
ken as much pains to make this
tsubiect clear as some of the French
economists have done, correct ideas
in regard to it would be more diff
