and concentrates.
Chas. Weideman has taken a lease and
bond on Frank Longs mine and has half
a dozen men at work. The bond is for
$12,C0O. $4,000 to be paid inn September.
Looks as though Frank was going to re.
tire and go to California soon as he ships
At Red Bluff the Red Chief has paid

sumo. The Red Bluff mine management
has ordered a 1oO-ton concentrator from
the Gates Iron Works for immediate de-
livery and expects to be making high
grade concentrates by fall.
H. P. Hyatt left a few days ago with
a Frue vanner from the Cowan mill,
which he will put up and get in running

it, HHe and O'Donnell have consider
able ore from their lease on the Straw

MINERAL IN THE PHILIPPINES
Large Deposits of Copper Ore and Veins
of Coal.

The mineral resources of the Philip
pines, which have attracted a good deal
of attention and inspired much specula-
ton and anticipation since the American
occupation. are discussed in very con-
serNatiVe way in the May number of the
Engineering Magazine by Frank l..
Strong. naval engineer who has given
the subject good deal of attention,
and who is now there on his private ac-
count.
These resources. he states, are prac-
tically unknown from the standpoint of
observations by competent observers.
The Spanish records have much about
the mineral and other resources of the
the group. and they present a rosy pic
ture to the new arrival. but they have
title scientific or practical accuracy and
are illusory. This is characteristic of
Spanish methods and Spanish policy
formed on manufacturing industries.

stayed to search for gold. etc, and hum

Miners Exchange composed of 120 min

formed in Manila. Land titles are I'M

staked out will be lost, even if they
prove valuable.

no valuable developed mine. American

succeed when the end of the instruction

that we know practically no more than

"The dreamers speak of this matter
as IL 1t were no more of an undertake

who believe that the cost of such a
branch would be nearly equal to the
cost Of the main channel"
Col. Kidder continued
at is proposed to run a canal four
teen miles long along the west line OF
evanston, starting from the lake at a
point in Wilmette, where pumping
works are to be situated, to lift the
water frcm the lake to the sewer. The
blun at this point has an average
height Of thirty feet above the lake
level and is battered by the stormies1
waves of Lake Michigan. In addition
to the constant wearing away of the
shore which would make the mainte'
nance of a pumping station there very
costly, the bay is frequently filled with
anchor zee that would render the op

greater difficulty would have to bl
overcome because Of the fact that al

~. Chosen Avoeations.
4 recent visitor at the White House
found the wife of the President busy,
as usual. knitting the wooden tops to
slipper soles. 4 pleasant protest that
the first lady OF the land should SO
steadily employ herself was well an
swered. Why shouldn't she knit the
slippers? 1t was about all she could do
In her state of health.
And then the gentle lady told with
undisguised satisfaction of the sale Of
a pair of her slippers at a New Eng.
land fair for good purpose. The slip
pers had brought $780, which had gone
for the benefit Of the cause. II there
existed a desire for the possession Of
a pair of slippers knitted by the wife Of
the President measured by such sum,
why should she not try to meet 1t, and
thereby extend help to worthy objects?
Mrs. Mckinley defended her vocation
admirably. Frequent requests for some
handiwOrk of the Presidents wife to
be utilized for the benefit of charity or
church come to the White House. None
Is refused so long as Mrs. Mckinley
has the strength to fulfill them.
Relating to the leather sOles Of these
slippers, there Is story which en-
hances their value. Mrs. Mckinley told
it recently. On one occasion. early In
the first term, Vice President Hobart
came into the presence of the lady
while she had her knitting In hand. He
picked up from table near by sole
upon which work had not begun.
where do you get these" he asked
when he had learned of the charitable
purpose of the industry.
Mrs. Mckinley replied that she
bought the soles by the dozen.
"Well," said the Vice President,
"these are made at my factory. | will
see that hereafter you are supplied
with the soles for the slippers without
cost. That shall be my contribution to
the good work.
From that day, so long as he lived
Vice President Hobart saw that tho
stock of soles as often as 1t ran low
through Mrs, McKinley's industry was
replenished. And since the death of the
Vice President Mrs. Hobart has kept
up the contribution from the factory.

High School Alumni Reception.

Quite the most charming affair held in the Town Hall for some time was the reunion and reception of the Canaan High School Alumni, Thursday even ing July Fourth.
 Miss s. J. Roraback, principal of the High School, met with the Alumni at eight o'clock for the roll-call. Miss Roraback addressed the members in a few we'll chosen words, after which she read the roll-call with the prophecy of each member made at graduation. The responses by the members were very witty and excited much merriment. Miss Roraback was then presented with very handsome bouquet of white roses ss testimonial of the love and respect with which she is held by all who were fortunate enough to be with her in school.
 The Alumni received their friends from nine until nine-thirty. when the dancers formed for the Grand March which was led by Miss Jennie Wilson Hamm and MT John Hubbard. Ha,. erty's orchestra of Great Harrington furnished excellent music for the danc- ing which was enjoyed by large nuE4- Der. Refreshments were served by the Undergraduates. The hall was taste fully decorated with flags and bunting and presented very pleasing back ground.
 Among the out of town graduates present were: Mrs Thomas Davis and Miss Annie Hosg of Mill River, Miss Elizabeth Joyce and Miss Bessie Riggs of Norfolk, MT Arthur Hsnlon of Poughkeepsie, N. T., MT Francis K. | Tone of New Haven.
 The appreciation of the interest which Miss Roraback feels in each graduate was shown by the large number of the Alumni present at this first reunion. All expressed the wish to meet each | year.
