Although Admiral Schley has been
detached from the command of the
South Atlantic squadron, he still re.
mains in the admiration of the Ameri-
can people. The services of Schley
constitute monument that is not
built of marble or bronze, one that will
not corrode or crumble by the wear of
time. one that cannot be razed by the
shafts of enviable politicians-his
brave, patriotic deeds are enshrined in
the heart of an admiring world.

A GREAT MAN GONE.

Benjamin Harrison is dead. and a
nation mourns. For three days the
lamp of his physical life fiicked lower
and lower, then it was snuffed out. and
now an appreciative people stand rev.
erently with barred heads beside his
bier.
Born of distinguished ancestry, his
character is a splendid study-one that
is and will continue to be an inspira-
tion to American youth. From the ma
ture of his training he was fully pre-
pared for every duty he was called up
on to Derform-his life was a natural
and orderly development through all
its stages. A resolute and tireless youth;
a patient and splendid student; a pat
riotic and noble young man who offer
ed himself as a sacrifice if need be, to
the integrity of his country; a wise and
helpful citizen; keen, well-equipped
and learned lawyer; a scholar, rich in
the knowledge and experience of the
world; a legislator of conspicuous
ability; diplomat whose fame was
not circumscribed by the limits of the
Republic; great executive of our
land-this is the epitome of the career
of Benjamin Harrison, the twenty
third President of the United States
Mr.. Harrison was not possessed of
magnetic personal qualities-on the
opposite he was distant, even cold, and
it is argued by many that these char
acteristics cost him the Presidency
when he was a candidate the second
time. However that may be, he is uni
versally regarded as one of the real
great men of the nation-one fully
able to cope with the many important
and intricate questions of statecraft
both in their application to foreign and
domestic affairs.
Ohio was his birthplace. Indiana his
adopted state. but the nation claims
him for her ownAhe belonged to the

qualities made him an ideal citizen
strong of will, with wealth of learn
ing, always active-when the end came
his career was well rounded. replete
with unusual service.

of Benjamin Harrison.
PUBLIC LIBRARY.

1t is gratifying to note that the pros
poets for the establishment of a free
public library are very bright. In the
formation of the library association the
initial step was taken. and the trustees
are receiving much encouragement in
their work. Provision is being made
by the Board of Education in the con-
struction of the new High School build
ing for quarters for the proposed Ii
brary On the first floor there will be
reading room thirty feet square, and
a library room thirty by fiftyfive feet
with an arrangement for the two to be
thrown together into double room.
With the present provision for an in
come of tenth of mill, the sum of
1884 is yielded on the new valuation of
$5,34O, 1896 in the school district. If the
board deems it advisable, It may make
the levy provided for in Section 1902
46)-three-tenths of mill, the mini
mum, would yield $1,602.12; one-half
mill. the maximum, $2,670,20. This
would mean that a valuable library
could be readily established and sus-
tained, with profit to all and burden
to none.

1t is well that the United States has
taken active and positive steps toward
building up and equipping navy that
will, in case of necessity, be able W
cope with the navy of any other coun-
try in the world. True, there does not
appear to be any visible reason for this
country just now arming herself for de-
fense, yet these are troublesome times,
and there is good argument in the old
saw, 'in time of peace prepare for
war" Next year England will spend
nearly two hundred millions of dollars
for the improvement of her navy,
which shows upon it's face that in the
heart of Great Britain there fingers an
ambition to regain her once proud
place of Mistress of the Seas" Rus
sia, Germany and others are also eX-
pending large sums of money for the
improvement of their navies. but it is
fair to assume that in the great race
for progress and power the Stars and
Stripes of Uncle Sam will continue to
lead the grand procession.

Many Indian maidens of the Indian
Territory are possessed of property
and money in amounts ranging from
ten to fifty thousand dollars, and be-
cause of this fact their hands are be-
ing eagerly sought in marriage by
thousands of gay young Lotharios of
the cities of the East. 1t develops,
however, that these Indian girls pos
sess sense as well as cmoIiey, and in
most instances the. propositions which
they receive from these would-be hus-
bands are turned down fiat. The good
examples that are thus being set by
these Choctaw and Chickasaw girls
might be followed with beneficial re-
suits by the swarm of American heir
esses who are parading up and down
Europe in quest of some snob who hap
pens to have inherited title.

April Fool Controls.

Controls of the April Fool Mining
company's mines and mill at Delamar,
New. yesterd passed into the hands
OF local and Montana syndicate head
d. Wood, the transfer having been
made on basis of about l00,000s for
the whole. Immediately on the
moneys being checked out and the
stock surrendered to the purchasing
crowd, the company's official house
hold was reorganized, with w. S. God
be of this city as president; Simon
Cam berger, treasurer and ID. l.. Vert
heimer secretary. With these officers,
r. Lieber aud j. Benton Leggat of
Butte will serve as directors. At the
same session, s. F. Mountney was made
assistant secretary, while Earnest God
be was delegated to receive the prop
erty of the company from James Healy,
who has long served the old company
as its general manager.
The property involevd in yesterdays
deal has long been prominent in the
West, and adjoins those of the great
Delamar, with its output of over b.
0O0000S in gold. Over a year ago it
was transferred to a Montana crowd
headed by A. l.. Wethey and Frank l..
Sizer, who paid to Frank Wilson, now
of the Johnny of Stateine, and his
associates l00,C C0OS, after the venders
had milled ores that yielded them over
50OO0Os Since that transaction a
large amount of development work has
been done. The vein has been running
steadily, the results have been disap-
pointing. The fault has not been with
the metallic contents of the ore, for it
compares with that from which the
original owners took over 500000S. and
to overcome this the plant is to be re-
mod eled by the new owners and the
proposition given opportunity to assert
its merits.
Mr.. Godbe, who assumes the manage
ment OF the mines, has been conver-
SAINT with them for long time while
Mr.. Healey, who retires, will make his
home in Ziou, where he is most favor
ably known as a superintendent of the
great Delamar mines.
The new crowd with which the April
Fool is surrounded is a powerful one,
and that the mines will be restored to
the prosperity of former days there are
many assurances.
There we're reports during the day
that the Magnolia group, control of
which was recently acqrired by Mr..
amberger and his friends, would be
added to the April FOOLS domain, but
this was denied.-Salt Lake Tribune.

Inventor of Diamond Drill Dead.

Inventor of the diamond drill, de
vice which has added millions to the
mineral wealth of the world, Ashel j..
Severance, died in poverty last Tues
day aud was buried by the many
friends he had made during his long
residence in Denver, says the Post of
that city.
One hundred thousand dollars, a
mere moiety OF what the patent was
really worth, was realized by Severance
and his partners for the diamond drill
some years ago. This money, however,
was lost in investments and dissipated
by Severance's partners, so the old
man for several years has had no prop.
erty except his patents for process of
making Damascus steel.
So many inventors have claimed to
have rediscovered this valuable secret
that Severance found difficulty in max
ing any capital believe he had actually
found the secret, and it was only re
Gently that Damascus steel patents
seemed convertible into money. Con-
tidence in the final triumph of his
ideas Severance went on with his work
aud waited for capital to come to him.
Some OF his friends, however, we're
more energetic and interested an east
ern capitalist in the Damascus steel
NAky in sf ~ oaApna1
the old man was to receive enough to
make him independent for the rest of
his days, death struck him down. 1t
is probable that the patents will be
sold during the next few months, and
that his relatives will get many thou
sands of dollars for them.
Ashel j. Severance was born in Atch-
ison county, Vermont, in December,
1920 In 1870 he first came prominently
before the mining world. In that year
he and MS partners sold the diamond
drill device for lO0,0o0s. Shortly after
that he came to Colorado, and from
that time on was interested ia many
mining ventures. At the time OF his
death he owned stock in the San Juan
mine at Central City. Some two years
ago his wife, who had gone east for her
health. died, aud since that time he
took little interest in his work. The
bright mind seemed obscured by grief
aud the old man spent hours in his
workshop without touching tool.
Since his wife's death he made his
home at Mrs. Arnold's boarding house,
moving when she moved. He left sew
eral brothers and one daughter, the
wife Of Ex-Governor Knapp of Alaska,
who resides in Seattle.

A Danger That Has Passed.

A quarter OF a century ago, says the
Philadelphia Post, the congestion of
population Ia cities was the darkest
cloud on the horizon of modern life.
The social forces Of the time acted az a
huge compressor, packing more and
ever more people into rigidly limited
area. The size Of the cities could not
substantially increase-the people had
to be within horsecar distances of the
places In which they earned their liv-
ing--and the only recourse seemed to
be to pile story upon story of dark,
unsanitary tenements. Philadelphia
had still maintained the old tradition
of the family home, but even there it
seemed as il the tenement could not
be kept out much longer.
Rapid transit and the telephone have
changed the whole outlook. The
growth of cities is no longer alarming,
for the cities are growing in extent
even faster than in population, aud
such overcrowdiDg as remains is
largely a mere traditional survival
City and country are merging, and it
will soon be impossible to tell where
one ends and the other begins.
A city used to be little black dot
on the map. Now it is a great splotch.
1t used to be a small subdivision of a
county. Now New York City contains
four entire counties, and is overflow
ing into half dozen more, in two
states. With the present facilities for
transportation u man may readily live
thirty miles from his business. A city
with radius Of thirty miles would
cover 2,827 square miles--more than
twice the area OF the state of Rhode
Island. 1t could contain 10, 10000 peo-
pie and be no more crowded than q
conDtry village. IL could contain a
hundred million and be less crowded
than New York was twenty FIVE years
ago. The entire present population Of
the United States could be accom- me =
dated with the greatest comfort in one
such city, and the entire population a
century hence could be accom- 10 odated
in half dozen.
