The proportion of sightless to seeing persons has been watched with espe- cia1 interest in Great Britain, and the latest statistics indicate that it has fallen in a half century from about 1,020 in 100000 to some gro, or more than IA CT cent. This decline has been so timed as to show pretty conclusive ly that it is the result of better condi- tions of living, improved surgery and doubtless 8 decrease in the ratio of perilous to non-perilous employments for the masses of the people.-London News.

They Break the Avalanche.

In Switzerland the people have en- tered upon effective plans to defeat the avalanche in it's devastating work. No more need the traveller be told: Be ware the awful avalanche for these rolling, pitching, sliding bodies of snow that accumulate into masses of destruction are now broken up before they gain an amount of material or velocity sufficient to make them dan gerous. Along the mountain sides, where avalanches form, earthworks in the form of V are constructed, with their points upward, and when nov ing masses of snow come in contact with them they are broken apart and so defected as to be rendered harmless. ,Chicago Chronicle.

Strike Not Ended.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Sept. 1O.-- President John Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America has denied in the most emphatic terms that the coal miners strike had been declared off. You can quote. me in the stron- gest terms he said, .'that the strike is still on. have received no proposi- tion from the other side, and have made none to the operators. All I know of any negotiations to end the strike have read in the newspapers. The strike is still on and will remain so until declared off by the mine work CTS in convention. It is tip to the op- erators." K 41ay
 A day of quiet followed the day of rioting and bloodshed in the Wyoming region. No disturbance of any kind was reported.

No Peace, Says Rose

SCRANTON, Pa, Sept. iO.-General Superintendent Rose of the Delaware and Hudson Railroad company's mine department said that he had no knowl- edge of any negotiations which could possibly lead to settlement of the strike this week, next week or any oth- CT definitely determined time. He said the Delaware and Hudson company stands in exactly the same position it did in the beginning of the strike and had no intention of offering any con sessions. This statement by superin- tendent Rose is in harmony with simi- lar statements made by Superintendent May of the Erie and Superintendent Phillips of the Lackawanna recently.

DENVER, Sept. 10. = Edward C.. Stimson of Cripple Creek, judge of the Fourth Judicial district, has been nom- mated for governor by the Democratic state convention. An informal ballot showed him to be in the lead, with 396 of the 450 votes necessary to choice. The first regular ballot was only three fourths complete when it was seen that Stimson had gained enough votes over the informal ballot to elect him, and his nomination was made by acclama- finn

1t is absolutely impossible for us to conceive of the rapidity and bril- fancy of lightning. It has been es- timated that ash occupies less than the one-millionth part of sec ond. One-tenth of a second is needed for the full effect of any light upon the eye, we get only a very faint idea of the brilliancy of the flash. If a flash were permanent it would be one hundred thousand times more bril- liant than the light we now exper- ience.-Frank Leslie's Monthly.

POLITICS FOR A CHANGE.
Davenport and Guilfoile for Governor
 and Lieutenant Governor.

Davenport and Guilfoile for Governor
 and Lieutenant Governor.
 It may seem rather strange time to be talking politics, but the boys are at 1t just the same, and so long as they are we might as well tell this as any thing else. It is too bad that there should, be anything more unpleasant to occupy our attention. But this is not to the point. A few of our friends down the road were in town yesterday and from what a reporter of the Dem ocrat has been able to learn from their movements he feels warranted in stat ing that there is a movement on foot to enter Attorney Davenport of Bridge port i'll the race for democratic nomina- tion for governor, with Attorney Guil- foile of this city as candidate for lieu- tenant-governor. Both are representa- tives at the constitutional convention and it is no boast to say that they are making themselves heard In that body They may not be able to get what the people want in the constitutional con- vention, but if their party puts them forward for these offices next fall the public will have an opportunity to say whether they approve of such meas, ures as they are advocating or not.

Shirk my duty and turn yellow be cause the smallpox epidemic has dropped into our city? No sirree. The above came from the lips of Attorney Lawlor, president of the board of health. Right you are. old man. You'd never be a true soldier of com pany G, c. N. G., if you had q drop of sIirking blood in your veins. But doctor. who receives S100 occasionally from the city for prescribing and look ing after the poor or dependent, for only a month, and absolutely refuses to do his duty, he should be refused his salary when pay day came around; if he refuses to do his work hire q doctor who will do it. When election time comes around and an of flee seeker hires a curb stone politi- elan to work for his interest for month and he finds out the "heeler'' shirked his work, what will he do? Pay him? We guess not. The poor fellow would get no pay. It should be the same with office holders: No work, no pay, particularly a man who will go back on the poor. Vaccination is somewhat of q fad lately; most every one is getting vaccinated. We simply say to our patrons. have no fear if you are drinking OUR Tea and Coffee; your system must be in good condition We say to people who do not drink our Tea and Coffee begin at once and the vaccine will not make your arms and limbs sore.

Protest From a Tax Payer.

Editor Journal Miner: In last evenings issue of your paper ap- pears the official delinquent tax list of the city for the year 1902. In connection with the publication of the same aud the specification of property to be sold under the ham mer, so to speak, for non-payment of taxes, I desire to protest the action of the city and warn all intending purchasers of particularly lots 1, 2 and 3, block II, that are advertised as being delinquent for taxes for the year 1902. The city of Prescott is designated in its corporate limits, and said lots are not within the con- fines of the corporate limits today, and never have been. I respectfully refer to the official plat of the city, and also the field notes of the city surveyor.
 ! I also hold receipts of the city for the payment of taxes on lots s and 9, block 6, and warn again all parties i from negotiating with the city in purchasing the same on the grounds advertised. Respectfully,
 Mrs. B. H. Smith.

 J. A. Conlee has four men at work on a group of mines seven miles west of town, near the Hurricane group of mines. They are in good ore and MT. Conlee hopes to be able to ship two or three car loads of good grade ore very soon. He says that district is coming to the front, there being considerable development work in progress and the properties are show ing up well.

Roads For Automobiles,

It is proposed that the automobiles
should have q track to themselves.
and be prohibited from using the pub
lie highways. Not a bad idea; then.
IL they get ravenous. as Is their wont,
they can eat up one another.
The automobile Is q graceful and
genteel machine, when It Is built on
graceful lines and run ut a genteel
pace, but there seems to be In the
very makeup Of the vehicle a some
thing that makes the drivers reckless
and inspires them to take unwarranted
chances, Mt the risk not only Of their
own necks, but Of those Of the other
occupants of the streets, whose rights
the automobile seems to disregard.
II the chauffeur would be moderate.
and the riders content to travel at q
respectable pace, all would be for
given, but that word "if'' Is the ag-
gravatlng and insurmountable OBJ
stacle. People who ride in automo-
biles Will not be moderate. so what Is
the use Of talking about "ifs"-Four-
Track News.

Blouse or Shirt Waist.

Slot seam effects are seen upon the
latest waists and gowns and are ex-
ceedingly effective. The very stylish
May Manton blouse illustrated shows
them used to advantage and In con-
junction with tucks at the shoulders
and the princess closing In front. The
original Is made Of reseda peau de
cynge. piped with black and stitched
with black corticelli silk. but all waist
cloths and silks and many gown ma
terials are appropriate as the design
suits both the old waist and the cos
tune.
The lining Ia snugly fitted and closes
ut the centre front quite separately
from the outside. but can be omitted
whenever an unlined waist IL desired.
The waist proper consists Of fronts
and back. which are laid In Inverted
tucks that are stitched to give the
slot seam effect from the shoulder to
the waist line. the fronts also includ-
Ing additional tucks at the shoulders.
that are stitched to yoke depth. and
the front edges being laid in wide
tucks that meet over the hens through
which the closing Is made. The back
Is finished with q novel stock and at
the waist Is a belt with postilliop
straps in centre back.
The quantity Of material required
for the medium size Is four and three.

really seemed immensely comprehen'
sive: she seemed to have everything In
one garment. She had gotten herself
tailor. made Of one Of the finer serges,
and to II had long cape. and all these
were worked In with one another IN
the most scientific way. The long skirt
and the cape had In common decora.
ton Of graduated military braids with
a note Of white cloth lightly embroid'
cred In green and mauve where the
coat turned back. This coat was OF the
open or closed formation, SO that when
closed. the embroidery being concealed,
the coat looked quite severely simple,
which arrangement had to do with the
fact that the short skirt was also Sc
verely simple as far as an adorning
element was concerned (having just
thrs xo-inch tucks at Its base). 1t

matte. that this inventive girl had
