anyone is usually small enough so that
the hostess can have personal ac-
quaintance with her guests. And in
many cases the guests are made to
feel as much at home as if at house
party of her friends. Mrs. Hoe. wife
of the famous maker of printing
presses, has a summer home of this
pleasant character, where usually a
dozen guests are entertained with as
much courtesy as if they did not come
from and return to the poorest tene-
ments; numerous vacation girls
clubs are of the same sort. At some
of these a small fee is charged for
board, so that the guest may feel that
she is paying her way. Passengers on

MINT ABANDON
ED AND DISMAN'fLEL.
Even the Dust Between the Floorings
Yield Colors-Whole Building a
Placer Mine

A preliminary step to the formal
abandonment of the old mint, at Chest
nut and Juniper streets, was made the
other day when the engines that have
supplied the motive power for the in
stitutiOn for many years stopped for
the last time. Shortly afterward the
fires under the boilers We're drawn, and
the building assumed the aspect of a
cold mass of WeatheT-beaten marble.
Externally, the building appears in
its former condition. The interior is all
confusion. This is especially noticeable
in the coming room proper. In the
offices all the desks and other furniture
have been removed, and nothing re-
mains save the four bare walls. In the
coming rooms the utmost confusion
relgnS. The machines have been taken
out, parts of the floor have been torn
up, and the tlues in the walls opened
and scraped and cleaned, to get all the
sweeps that might contain the least
particle of gold or silver Wherever
gold and silver solutions have dripped,
wherever CreviCe can be seen, and
where old platforms and flOorings were
laid, the floor has been taken up and
the sWeepings and dust carefully col
lected. These have been destroyed
and the primary valuable metals ex-
tracted. Even the bricks lining the
fiues have been carefully scraped and
clipped, until not a possible yestige of
metal can remain.
When all the sWeepings have been re-
duced the residue will be collected in
barrels. From this different assays
viii be taken, and bids will be received
from gold and silver dealers for the
disposal of the lot. The amount which
this will sell for cannot be estimated
at present but if the receipts from
sales Of former years can be taken as
a criterion, it is thought that it will
amount to many thousands of dollars.
Just what will be the disposition of
the property cannot be told 1t is likely
that Secretary Gage will place it on the
market, with a request for bids, fixing
an upset price. Real estate dealers

FOURTH IN BARAGA.
The Day Was Enjoyed BY a Fair
Sized Crowd.

The Fourth was celebrated in
Baraga in satisfactory manner,
although the crowd was not as large
as expected. The weather, early in
the morning, was far from being
pleasant, but about 8 o'clock the
sun shone brightly and the day was
hot. The various sports were carried
out as per program and prizes
awarded. In the afternoon ball
game was played between the Bar
agas and the Grover team. 1t was
a lively and interesting contest, the
score standing to 4 in favor OF
Baraga.
The horse races were postponed
until today Saturday.
In the evening a dance was given
in Grandville Hall, under the
auspices of Baraga Fire department.
Music was furnished by King
hammers orchestra. The attend
ance was large and all present had q
delightful time.
