And you should come in deepest grief

And say, whats that?'
If | should die tonight
And you should come to my cold
corpse and kneel,
Clasping my bier to show the grief

And you should come to me and there
and then
Just hint bout paying me that ten,

But I'd drop dead again.

A METAL AGE.

TO even the most casual observer
of our countrys industrial develop
ment it must be apparent that we
are entering upon an era in mining
that has never been equaled on this
continent, or for that matter, in the
history of the world The growth of
the industry during the past twenty
five years has been marvellous, but it
does not even approach what the
growth of the next generation must
inevitably witness. The wealth of
the earth has been very largely dug
from the soil in the shape of metals.
The great fortunes of this country
have been largely made from the
construction and operation of rail
roads or in the development and OPP
GRAFTON of mines. The per capita of
wealth in Nevada, Colorado, Mon
tana and Washington is from two to
four times the per capita of wealth
in Ohio, New York and Massachu-
setts, aud the great mineral deposits
of the giant ledges of gold silver,
copper antimony and other minerals
that have cut their way through and
along the mountain ridges or that lie
exposed on canyon sides is not yet
even dreamed. Mining is still only in
its infancy at Butte, Anaconda, Grip
pie Creek, Park City and scores of
other equally rich, but less known,
because less exploited, mineral cen
ters in all the mountain states of the
West.
Several facts must be taken into
consideration in any intelligent study
of this vast industry, so little under.
stood and SO much abused by those
men in business who designate them
selves by that very doubtful compli-
mentary term conservatism. In the
first place, there is a constantly in
creasing demand for every kind of
useful metal. For gold, of course,
the market is unlimited and the value
is fixed. While values in silver have
deprecated, there is constantly
broadening field in the arts, at least,
for the metal Copper must find
larger uses as electricity and electric
appliances come more and more into
common use. The demand for lead
and tin far surpasses the output
from American mines, and the sup
ply of antimony, as compared with
the amunt needed, has been so small
as scarcely to be taken into account
i'll the study of the industry For all
these, as well as many other metals,
there is call for vastly more than
the mines Of the country can possibly
be expected to produce for many
years to come, unless there should be
unexpected discoveries of much
larger deposits than are now known
to exist. This is pre-eminently a
metal age. 1t must become more and
more so during the present century.
Then, too, the improvements in ma
chinery and in the methods of mine
development make mining profitable
to-day where even ten years ago it
would have been an absolute failure
Some of the greatest dividend payers
on this continent are running on ore
that is worth only from two dollars to
five dollars a ton. In fact, the sue
cess of mine, so far as dividends are
concerned, does not depend upon the
richness of the ore nearly so much as
it does upon intelligence, economy,
the use of the most improved machin-
cry, and the possession of an unlim-
tied quantity of low grade rock.

THE MAN WITH THE ADzE"

o b Butchers Chopping Block
Is Kept moot and Neat.
A constructive rather than a destruc-
tive force implied by the name is '.the
man with the adze," who is sometimes
seen by early corners to the meat mar
kets. 4, ~
Most persons have doubtless obsery-
ed the large blocks upon which butch
ers trim their steaks and chops. The
top OF the block is usually as smooth
as glass, but the constant chopping of
meat thereon roughens the surface
eventually. The general idea seems to
be that the butcher keeps his block
smooth by merely saving off the rough
section. Such, however, IL not the case.
Specialism has even entered here.
The man who makes a business of
smoothing the butchers blocks appears
at the meat markets early in the morn
ing before the customers arrive. He
rolls the big block to the sidewalk.
then mounts to the top of it, adze in
hand. Bringing it down swiftly from
a vertical position above his head, the
blade is made to pass between his legs,
skimming the surface of the block with
great dexterity. ..~. =
At each stroke a thin layer of the
rough wood is removed. The operation
is continued sufficiently to satisfy the
butchers requirements. Some three
hours are ordinarily consumed in the
operation, and at the end of that time
the man with the adzn' finds h;p,ea1f
richer by $1.-New York Times.

CALIFORNIAN ENTERTAINMENT

CALIFORNIAN ENTERTAINMENT.
The local Caledonian society have ar
ranged for an entertainment at the
Atheneum April p, by Mr.. Gavin Spence
and Miss Flora Macdonald. Both of
these persons are well-known entertain
ers. The Winnipeg Tribune says of
their performance at that place:
Mr.. Spence is an entertainer who can
keep the attention of the audience riv-
tied firmly on him as he relates his
Scotch humorous stories. He knows
the value of a climax and the power of
witty repartee, redressing old anecdotes
and relating new ones with the gusto of
a born raconteur.
He knows how to sing to catch the
spirit of the words and melody of the
song he is exploiting, instancing Wi a
Hundred Pipers," and THE Bonnie
Hoose O. Airlie."
Also the two duets with Flora Mac
donald, "Crookit Bawbee" and when
ye Gang Ava jamie"
The dramatic features of Scotch min
strelsy were strongly accentuated, both
entertainers appearing liz Scottish COS
tune.
Flora Macdonald sang her sentimental
songs very agreeably. Her voice is sweet
and we'll expressed.
The lady is likewise a neat dancer,
graceful in action, not firing the patience
OF those present by an interminable num-
Der of steps"

MANDAN SQUABBLB.

DIFFICULTY BETWEEN BOARD OF
HEALTH AND OWNER OF THE
M'SORLEY HOTEL OVER A QUAR-
ANTINE. .
Attorneys Rice and Shaw and DR..
Goeschel of the Mandan board of
health / in. the city today interested
in an action brought before Judge
Winchester to allow the opening of the
McSorley hotel at Mandan, which has
been q~uarantined by the board of
health. It appears a man diedgin the
hotel, it being stated he was suffering
from small pox. The health author
titles took matters in their hands and
shut up the hotel and the persons
stopping there at the time, intending
to quarantine the premises for the
customary two weeks. Attorney Rice,
for the owner of the hotel, asks that
the court issue an order to open the
hotel. and have the persons therein
$quarant1ned ELSEWHERE and the premises
disinfected. The matter was. argued
before the court today. The board
of health claims the right under the
law to quarantine the premises, and
say these are the regulations of the
state board of health.
After hearing the arguments and
the testimony presented n the case
this afternoon, Judge Winchester dis
missed the writ sought to- be obtained
forthe opening Of hotel, thus sus-
tanning the position Of the health au-
thonrities and holding that they were
e1npoWeared to quarantine the building
under the Law, Il they deemed It neces-
sary and wise.

ARE o A BUFFALoP
STORY OF THE ORGANIZATION OF
THE ORDER IN BISMARCK BACK

STORY OF THE ORGANIZATION OF
THE ORDER IN BISMARCK BACK
IN 1873,
Like a great many other things,
measures, mel and incidents that have
become famous throughout the land
the order of Buffalos had its origin
in Bismarck back in 1873. Jimmy EN-
mons, now in Oklahoma, sends the
Tribune the following account of the
organization.
The order of Buffaloes originated in
Bismarck during the blue dismal win
ter of 1S73-74 at the time of the Jay
Cooke failure. 1t wa truly a winter
of discomfort and Col. Lounsberry and
all the people who had passes or could
get one took the last Northern Pacific
train for the east. The ones that were
left looked sad and detected. But

E. A. Williams and John A. Stoyell

Third street. Gloom and homesick-
J ness was imprinted upon their faces:

wards became a full-fedged Buffalo. Sc

nize him afterwards, but afterwards
learned he was a respected member OF
the Bufaloes. Brave, good, generous
souls, some still live, many have been
gathered to Mother Earth-"May God
be with them till we meet again" Their
labors in many fields have not been in
vain. They blazed the path for the
coming thousands-they did not toll
but spun the story of "Wonderland.'
May all, the newer order of B%uffaloes
make as good and peaceable citizens
and not be Buffaloed-to infamous
deeds.
