terms are almost synonymous.
The claim jumper. as a type, noses
around. and, on the slightest pretext,
will make a location upon a claim
which 1t is the desire of the owner TO
maintain title to. It is often the case
that the claim is really open to locat-
ion because of a failure to company, in
every little particular, with the law re-
gulatlng the location and work to be
performed in the holding Of the same,
but the Jumper. paying no regard to the
amount Of work performed or the evil
dent good faith of the locator, is willing
to cloud his title. to put him to a good
deal of expence and trouble, and has
no hesitancy in putting up his 0
ments and corner stakes, and posting
his notice upon ground to which he
has no moral right. even if the law
gives him a slight loop-hole in which
to slip in. Such a man is a MANAGE
to the mining industry. He is, to a
certain extent. a protected blackmailer.
and he should be driven out of every
mining camp; peaceably, if possible; by
force. If necessary.
The man who holds down a claim
year after year, by relocation. is a
hindrance to the growth and prosperity
Of any camp or district. He will not
work himself, neither will he let others.

is a drawback I the district and is a
cousin If not a brother to the claim
jumper.
The Mining Review is pleased to
note that in certain portions of the west
action is already being taken to thwart
the claim-jumper. In Beav .rscounty

headed by leading mining men and
claim-holders, to deal with this class

FOR FOUR HOURS SLEEP.
Queer Club Formed by Some Chicago
Men and Women.

Queer Club Formed by Some Chicago
Men and Women.
Firm in their belief that sleep is a
waste OF time, number Of men and
women Of Chicago have organized
themselves into a society which pro-
poses to teach people that too great a
part Of their lives is spent in useless
slumber.
The organization is called the -Four
Hour Sleep club. and the members lre
pledged to sleep but four hours night.
The members contend that sleeping In
excess Of that time is purely a habit
that is. nothing short OF sinful In this
day OF hurry and progress. 1t is an adj
dlctlon, they argue, as harmful and In
temperate as the excessive use of In
toxicants, tobacco or drugs.
Members of the club who have chill
dren are rearing them to observe the
same restriction with regard TO alleged
overindulgcnce In nightly rest. Some
claim that child five years OF age can
be trained to do on four hours sleep.
but the majority is of the opinion that
children should be allowed from six TO
eight hours, the amount decreasing as
the child grows older.
The club has secured large amount
OF literature on the subject, and the
members quote abundance Of authority
to show that they are right In their
contentious. They point TO Napoleon
and number OF the greatest generals,
writers and thinkers OF history, who
are alleged TO have taken four hours
sleep a night and less.
MIR. Gaul, the president Of the club.
says that Il was through natural
aversion he has to sleep. as well as a
realization of Its wastefulness, that he
was induced to abandon the "hablt."
His wife and child, six years old. also
manage to live with the stinted rest,
and all seem TO enjoy good health and
bright mental faculties.
The man who sleeps eight hours out
OF twenty-four and lives to be eighty
one years old has In reality lived but
fifty-four years. Twenty-scven he has
spent in this suspension Of all the pow
ers Of the body and mind. On the 9TH
er hand, the man who sleeps but four
hours n night will have spent nearly
sixty-elght years Of real life II he at
tains the age OF eighty-one years.

NEVER A CROSS WORD.
A Step.Mother's Tribute to Abraham
Lincoln.

Lincoln.
The debt which the great president
owed to his step-mother for her ten
der care and constant love was al
ways gratefully acknowledged. A pa.
thetic picture of this gentle lady in
her last days is given as follows:
MRS. Lincoln was never able to
speak of Abe's conduct to her without
tears. In her interview with Mr..
Herndon, when the sands of her life
had nearly run out, she spoke with
deep emotion of her own son, but said
that she thought that Abe was kind
er, better, truer than the other. Even
the mothers instinct was lost as she
looked back over those long years OF
poverty and privation in the Indiana
cabin, when Abe's grateful love soft
ened the rigors of her lot, and his
great heart and giant frame were al
ways at her command. Abe was a
poor boy said she and I can say
what scarcely one woman-a mother
can say in a thousand. Abe never
gave me cross word or look, and
never refused in fact or appearance,
to do anything l requested him. I
never gave him a cross word in all
my life. His mind and mine
what little | had-seemed to run to
gether. He was here after he
was elected president Cat this point
the aged speaker turned away to weep
and then, wiping her eyes with her
apron, went on with the story. He
was dutiful to me always. l think
he loved me truly. had a son, John,
who was raised with Abe. Both were
good boys; but must say, both now
being dead, that Abe was the best
boy | ever saw, or expect to see. |

president; did not want him elected;

after he was elected president, | still

thing would befall Abe, and that I
should see him no more
rs there anything in the language
we speak more touching than that
simple plant Of the woman whom we
must regard as Abraham Lincoln's
mother? The apprehension in her
heart was well grounded. She saw
him no more When Mr.. Herndon
arose to depart, her eyes again filled
with tears; and. wringing his hands
as il loath to part with one who talk
ed so much of her beloved Abe, she
said, Goodbye. my good sons friend.
