FROM IRELAND !
Old Cork Beside the Lee.


Stately cities rise in splendor
B Der the land wherein dwell,
@And they waken feelings tender
y In the hearts that love them we'll
ESome for Frisco's golden gateway,
n Some for Boston and New York,
But VOW I'd leave them straightway
4 For glimpse of dear old Cork!
Yes, their glories I'd abandon,
Once again the soil to stand on,
From which rise the walls of Shandon,
Far across the spreading sea,
Once again to see the city
Where the boys are brave and witty,
And the girls are sweet and pretty,
In old Cork beside the Lee!
Stately cities rise in splendor
Ger the world from pole to pole,
But never will surrender
That old city of my soul;
She is neither Rome nor Venice,
Neither London nor New York,
But where'er my tongue or pen is
I will hymn the praise of Cork!
Yes, wherever may wander,
Still my heart will ever ponder
On that old town over yonder,
Far across the spreading sea,
On that famous Irish city,
Where the boys are brave and witty,
And the girls are sweet and pretty,
In old Cork beside the Lee!
Should again our land in splendor
From her lowly state arise,
Flinging forth-may God defend herr
Her green banner to the skies,
Many exiles would be thronging
B. Back from Boston and New York,
4 Just to satisfy their longing
\ For a glimpse of dear old Cork!
All, there would be no delaying
Those whose hearts for years were
praying
,On the N1ardyke to go straying
AS in days of youth and glee,
In that charming Irish city,
Where the boys are brave and witty
And the girls are sweet and pretty,
In old Cork beside the Lee!

S BERIAN PLACER MINES.
Methods Used in Extracting Gold in tie Dis.
tant Country.

In Siberian placer mining the trough
used consists Of rectangular box,
open at the top and fitted at the bot
tom with perforated iron plate, one
half to one inch holes. The dirt Is
placed into this box and If the gold is
fine, mercury, not exceeding ten parts
to every one of gold is added. Water
is then led or pumped in and the fine
material is washed down through the
bottom screen plate and falls into in
clined tables of about twenty feet In
length by twenty inches in width.
These are provided with five rifles Of
which the upper two are two inche
high and the others of less height. The
disintegration of the material is COM
pleted on the tables by workmen u.s.
ing small rakes. !. Aen disintegration
is finished the stream of water is di-
minished and If the gold is fine and
mercury has not been previously added
In the hopper, little is now sprinkled
on the sands, the raker meanwhile
continuing to rabble the material ac-
cumulated behind the rifles, pushing
the contents of the lower ones up to
the table again until the contents are
thoroughly cleansed More water is
then added, the pyrites washed away,
the magnetic removed by a magnet
and the gold and amalgam collected.
The black sands are treated over again
with the next charge. The Siberian
trough treats about 500 pounds of dirt
at time. or about five tons per day.

morning, Minister Bowen said that the sit
uation at the Venezuelan capital. Caracas,
was much auieter. The great excitement
noted at the outset of the affair he said
was caused by the precipitate flight Of the
British and German ministers, the arrest
of all the subjects Of those two nations and
