INNOCENCE ABROAD.
Detroit Man in Quebec Gives His
Companions Something to
Laugh over.

There is big, good-natured De-
troiter who is something of Mark
Twain when travelling. He has a
look of baby innocence for occasions,
and it serves him where smile. or q
wink might be the signal for serious
trouble. He is recently back from q
trip that included Quebec, relates the
Detroit Free Press, and this is one
incident OF his visit there:
He, the guide and the small party
with whom the Detroiter had picked
up an acquaintance, stood looking up
ward as their hired pilot said:
tThere, sir, is whore Montgomery
fell"
moi" from the wild-eyed innocent,
''ldIl him?'
The French priest in the party put
mis- handkerchief to his mouth and
hurried away, with a notice that he
would meet the gentlemen at the ho-
tel. The stolid Englishman tried to
assist the guide in explaining and was
solemn in details until the Detroiter
broke in, wrathully:
n Ou1llIuS SndAiOs AO 0OSAtlAS eA'
'Here this man Montgomery fell, and
yet there is no railing, not even a
guard by day or red lanterns by
might. In America we'd either level
that cliff, terrace it or have an iron
fence there that would turn back a
herd of elephants. How do you know
he wasn't showed over?"
But, my dear man" began the
Englishman.
mo explanation goes with me-
from his Innocence. Montgomery fell
quite awhile ago, as / understand 1t,
and yet there's not thing done to
make the place safe. I'd be just as
liable as not to walk right off of
there but for this warning. It's q
trap, deadfall and disgrace to the
British empire. If were lawyer
here I'd go after that municipality
for damages to the Montgomery
heirs and I'd break the city, too.
Where did he striker"
That night at the hotel the Detroit
er and the French priest seemed to
have much to laugh at, while the
guide and the Englishman pointed
our fellow citizen out, whispered
few words and soon had the guests
circRng about as though he were
some rare pieee of statuary.

Mining for Tree Stems.

One of the most curious mines that
Is worked is in Tongkin, China, where,
in sand formation, at depth of
from IA to 20 feet, there is deposit
of the stems of trees. The Chinese
work this mine for the timber. which
is found in good condition. and is used
in making collins, troughs, and for
carving and other purposes. The
stems are about three feet in diameter
and As feet in length. and apparently
belong to fir trees which were buried
thousands of years ago by an earth-
quake OF other similar convulsion.-

Peeresses i'm House of Lords.

England is interested in the pre-
tensions of certain English women
who are peeresses in their own right,
and believe that they can sit in the
house of lords IL they choose and
help govern the empire. 1t is CEN
turtles since peerless has done it, but
there is to be a fancy dress corona
tion in London next year, and Lon
don gossip says that certain of these
self;regulating peeresses propose to
go to it as members of the house of
lords and have their trains borne by
pages, as the peers do. It seems an
exceedingly proper purpose, and

FISHES EASILY FRIGHTENED.
summer Is the Hardest Time for
Them in the Aquarium
of the City.

"You might not think said an
aquarium attendant, according to the
New York Sun, shat fans and fishes
had anything to do with one another,
but as matter of fact they have, a
lot. Summer is the worst time of the
whole year for fishes held in captivit.
where the public can get at them, as
in a great aquarium like this; and 1t
Is made SO by the frights they get
from fans carried in the hands of
visitors.
.Canes and umbrellas have to be
checked at the door, A good many
people don't understand why. The
reason is that there are some among
the visitors who, if they were permit
ted to carry in a cane OF an umbrel-
la, would point with 1t to some fish,
or maybe touch the glass of the tank
with it, either of which actions might
brighten fish so that it would dash
and thrash around and maybe run
into wall and kill itself We avoid
the danger from these things by re-
curing that canes and umbrellas shall
be checked.
sBut we ean't undertake to check
the newspaper that a man may have
in his pocket, and with which later,
thoughtlessly, OF even maybe with in
tent to be friendly to some fish, he
may tap on the glass Of tank, to the
tish's great injury.
''The worst things of ali In this way
are the fans, for there are SO many
carried in their season, and it seems
SO natural for those who carry fans
to wave them and swing them about,
and here to use them with which to
point out fishes or to tap on the
glass to them. We have to keep the
sharpest sort of lockout of all in
summer to keep people from tapping
OH the glass with their fans.
"You see this beautiful Ash here,
valuable fish, too, sailing around
and around in the water, all stirred
up? Somebody has come along and
stopped and looked at this fish and
said to its seh, ven beauty!' and
tapped ON the glass with her fan in IN
the most friendly and admiring spirit
But where the fish lives when it's at
home nobody ever comes along in the
water waving something at ~, and
that fan frjghtens the fish almost to
death. Here II is IS minutes after
closing, and the fish 4s going yet; It
IS auieter than it Yves, and II will
come out oil right.
"a fish might. as ! told you, dart
off to butt into walt and kill itself,
or it might worry and run itself to
death or bruise itself and so make
spot where fungus could get a
start on it and finally kill it, or so
weaken # as to lead to its death.
mot all the visitors are thought
less about the fishes, by aRg means.
I've known people SO carefnl OF tihfemp
that they went along in front of the
tanks on tiptse. Rat most people put
their whole foot down When they go
past, and a good many of them, first
and last, don't hesitate to point At
the fishes, or even to touch the glass
of the tanks, and as far as that dan
ger to the fishes goes, the worst time
of the whole year for them is right
now. when people are carrying fans"

Under the Carey Act.

State Engineer A. j. McCune expects
to see thousands Of acres Of arid land
taken up on the western slope during
the next year 1t will be settled under
the Carey act, passed by congress on Au-
gust 4, 1894. Although that act has been
in force for more than seven years, Dep
uty State Engineer John Field says that
no land has been taken up under its pro.
visions.
Recently plumber of men have called
at the state engineer's Office, asking in
formation about the act, saying that it
is their intention to construct bitches
aud take up land under its provisions.
The exact location OF the proposed set
tlemsnt is withheld by the office, to pro-
tect the men. for fear other parties
might step in and begin the construction

Big Mining Company.

Durango, Colo, Oct. SO.-Negotiations
have been opened in Denver by which
the most gigantic mining development
known to Silverton, and seldom equaled
in all Colorado, will begin within short
time. A company has been formed for
development and operation Of 40 claims
and the construction OF large mill the
capacity OF which is to be determined
later.
q. I. Henderson OF Chattanooga, Ten
nessee, a mining expert OF note in the
southeastern gold belt, is the moving
spirit, backed by a syndicate Of Ken
turky capitalists.
The new company has been organized,
but not yet chartered. The property
consists Of % claims that have been qui-
city bought up from various parties,
additional ones recently obtained from
the Deer Park company and claims
that will revert to the concern by reason
Of the tunnel about to be started.
1--WE will drive a tunnsl 1000 feet into
the mountain" said Mr.. Henderson,
"and obtain 4OO-foot slope, which Will
enable us to cut the vein. Then we pro
pose to construct mill for handling the
ore
"The assays run low to $11l,0OO. In
one spot the Deer Park company got the
latter enormous figure. AS a whole
however, our ore will run from $l5 tc
$40. and there is enough OF 1t to keep ue
gong for years.
"In addition to these improvements is
. water power plant, the details Of which
are to be arranged. The Deer Park
creek running through our property AZ
fords an excellent opportunity for plant
of 10000 horsepower. and all OF oui
work will be by this method"

SEEING THE CITY.
Don't Come to Grand Junction
Without Seeing Its Mammoth
Merchandise Establishment.
The White Hardware Company
Extends a Cordial Invitation.

The big White Hardware department
store has been doing a rushing business
in every department this fall What
seemed great big store space when the
firm first moved into the big room at the
corner OF Fifth and Main streets, has
dwindled to very small quarters consid-
ering the immense stock now carried by
this firm.
The very pleasant part about this big
emporium is that every part of the busi-
ness is done upon a we'll ordered system,
and this makes everything about the
business run smooth.
Take for instance the boot and shoe
department A certain portion Of the
store is set apart for this line, and here
will be found every shoe marked and set
out in elegant display.
The shoe business with the White
Hardware company has been a growing
one since the fret line Of shoes WAS
bought. Tho styles are correct ones and
the various makes carried are the stand-
ard shoes in style and mako to be pur-
chased in the shoe market today. Any
one who wants q real up-to date shoe
should not fail to examine the line in
the White Hardware compsny's big
store. Especially is this fact in regard
to ladies shoes. A very special line lie
carried in women's shoes and all the
swell lasts are carried. aside from the
standard goods always to De found in .
well appointed store.
But what has been said OF the shce de-
partment Of the big store is we'll said OF
the goods in every department.
In the line Of queensware and glass
ware and chinaware-ths first full line
carried in this city-there is not stock
can compare with it. Here will be found
every grade Of first class goods in queens
ware, china and glassware. All the
stocks in the city combined will not
equal the big stock carried In this de-
partment.
The business was fret esta blished as a
hardware store. This was and doubtless
is the principal line carrisd. "lf you
cannot find any piece OF hardware in any
other stock in town, you can always find
it at White's," say the people. Such a
stock is really far too largo for town Of
the size of Grand Junction, but Preel.
dent White, OF the company, says he ID
in the business to keep any ything and
everything, and what he dislikes above
all things 10 to have customers asking for
something he hasn't got.
