Slate as Roofing Material.

The value of roofing material is
determined by a variety of consider
ations, among which the most import
ant are first cost, durability, appear
ance, resistance to fire and consequent
influence on the cost of insurance, and
the expense OF maintenance and re-
pairs. Below is table showing a
comparative estimate cost of the lead
ing materials used by the roofing
trade. This estimate is based on the
"square''-l00 square feet of surface
laid on the roof in the vicinity of

To Irrigate Arid Lands.

Considerable interest in Washington
has been manifested by government
officials in the bill recently framed at
Cheyenne, Wyo., by number OF west
ern congressman and engineers, look
ing to the construction of reservoirs
for the storage of water and other nee
essary irrigation works for arid land
reclamation. Among those who have
carefully examined the provisions of
the proposed bill is Commissioner
Hermann, of the general land office,
and in general the measure meets with
his approval, although its terms are
considered too indefinite for final
adoption.
Mr.. Hermann approves the main
idea, namely, the construction OF these
reservoirs with the funds raised from
the sale of public lands, as this method,
in his Judgment, is more likely to meet
the approval of eastern congressman
than would a direct appropriation
from the treasury, such as is made for
river and harbor improvements. At
the same time he points out the made
quacy of the provision that the funds
raised in one state shall be expended
in that state. This would work very
well in states like Colorado, Oregon,
the Dakotas and others where the re-
ceipts of the land Offices are large, but
the receipts in Nevada amount to
practically nothing, and under this
system that state would not be bene-
flied at all.
The commissioner suggests that a
general fund might be created, and
from this a reservoir should be first
built in the state which contributes the
most: then in turn the second largest
contributor should have reservoir,
and so on in turn until the least should
have been supplied. This plan, how
ever, will have its opponents, and is
mainly defective for the reason that it
affords relief last to the states needing
irrigation the most.
Returning to the bill in question,
however, the commissioner approves
the plan of giving the secretary of the
interior general supervision over the
entire reservoir scheme, and thinks
the lands to be included in a reservoir
should be segregated from entry as
soon as the application is filed.
One of the vital provisions of the
bill, that of permitting the sale to the
actual consumers of the completed
works, including reservoir and canals,
meets with Commissioner Hermann S
complete disapproval, and he will Wig
orously oppose any such provision in
a bill that is referred to him for re-
port. He points out that such law
would permit the few original con-
sumers to gain control OF the system,
and gives into the hands of few men
the control of system that is in time
bound to spread: in other words, the
few original users of the water, when
they own the system, can fix such rates
as they choose. and make their exac-
tions on all farmers below, who may
afterward desire to use this water. In
a word, it is legislating, in his opin-
ion, in favor of a corporation, in eff
feet, if not in name, and this he does
not approve. He believes that reser-
voirs should be constructed by the
general government and always owned
and controlled by the general govern
ment, thereby avoiding not only indi-
vidual conflicts, but the conflicts be-
tween states as to the use of certain
waters.

minerals contributed 672, 2,030,416: and
metals 524, 432, ,533 tons. The chief
item was coal, of which we produced
2GS, S,315.4 43l short tons: this being an
increase of 8 per cent. over 1899. Pig
iron was second only to coal in the
value of its product, which amounted

Since really scientific efforts have
been made to explain the genesis of
ore deposits great many terms have
been introduced into mining geology,
says a contemporary. These terms,
in many cases, have almost Identical
ignifications, but when correctly used
they have shades of meaning which are
essential in order to differentiate be-
tween facts very closely allied. The
terms replacement, substitution and
inetasomatism are examples. FIRE.
quently, but loosely, these terms are
used as synonyms. Correctly the term
replacement is used when complete
exchange OF substance is to be under
stood: substitution is reserved to the
process by which one or more atom OF
an element is replaced in mineral by
one or more atom OF another element,
AZ, for example, the substitution Of one
atom Of calcium in limestone by one
ntom Of magnesium when limestone is
.0nvefted into dOlomite. Metasomat-
1em Il deflped - the process BY which
more Of less complete Interchange Of

To make a success in mining as ia
anything else. it is necessary to exer-
else caution and good Judgment in its
prosecution. Experience is another
element that is necessary in the sue
cessful mining operator. The mining
industry is one that requires closer
attention than almost any other, as
the many changes in the earth's form
alton and in the ores keeps the sue
eessful miner constantly on the look

CAMPBELL GOT INJUNCTION.
Eviction of His Household Goods
Temporarily Prevented.

Hamilton, o., April 27.-Ex-Gov-
ernor James e. Campbell secured d
temporary injunction against the
Provident Life and Trust company,
and Sheriff Peter Bisdorf, to restrain
the sheriff from putting the gov
ernor's household goods, now in the
Campbell mansion, at Fourth and
Ludlow streets, into the street. The
sheriff now has a writ of restitution
to evict the governor from the house,
but the injunction prevents him from
serving it.
Governor Campbell established his
Hamilton home some years ago.
Later he mortgaged the house for
$4,000, and the trust company fore
closed two years ago. By agreement
then an order of possession was not
given the company, which bought the
property, Governor Campbell volun-
tarily surrendering possession. He
then rented the house from the pur-
chaser and has been the tenant ever
since, though the house has been
closed two years, and the Campbells
now live in New York. However, all
the household effects are still there,
and when in Hamilton the Camp
bells make it their home.

FOR GOVERNING CHINA.
Empress Dowager Appointed Board
of Administration.

W dhtOH-
Washington, April 27.-The follow
ing cablegram was received at the
state department from Mr.. Squier,
the United States charge d'affaires at
Pekin, dated Friday:
The empress dowager has appoint
ed board of national administration
to relieve her of her public functions.
They embrace three members of the
cabinet, with the empress, at Sian Flu,
and Prince Ching, Viceroy LII and
Prince Kung, who are now in Pekin. "
This news was regarded as of i'm
portance, indicating, as it does, the
REIMBURSEMENT of the empress dow
ager of the arbitrary powers she
heretofore has exercised. 1t also is
apparent that she has placed herself
In position to avoid direct RESPONSE
b1lity to the foreigners, for whatever
may happen in the future the board
Will have to bear the brunt of any
complaint 1t is felt that the appoint
ment of this board will make 1t much
easier for the foreign ministers to
transact business with the Chinese
government
The three members of the cabinet
now at Sian Flu include the notorious
jung Lu, who was one of the most
active in the outbreak against the for
eigners last summer One of the
other members of this council is 70
years old and is said to be greatly
debilitated. The third member has
been at least lukewarm toward for
eign interests. The choice of these
three is looked upon as likely to com.
plicate the good which Lii Hung Chang
and the others may accomplish.

The Chinese were wondering if the
imperial commission appointed by an

into the question of reforms really
meant the relinquishing of absolute
power by the court or whether it was
merely the formation of a privy
council.
