A carload of machinery, which included a large pumping plant, was shipped to the mine during October. This will en- able the owners to go to 9 sufficient depth to determine what effect the wa ter level will have upon the ore, and what kind of reduction works will be required.
 Still southeast and nine miles distant is the Desert Queen, for which q tunnel was driven TO feet. cutting the ledge at about the same depth with q show ing that has encouraged the owners to start another tunnel lower down the mountain to cut the lode al 1000 feet from the entrance and nearly that depth. During November a carload of machinery from Denver was delivered at the mine, which includes a forty horse power gasoline engine, a dynamo and all its appurtenances and air com pressor, air hOlder.~two machine drills, 1900 feet of 'T'' rails for car track, with car, etc, making as complete d mine outfit as can be found outside some of the old p. oducing mines of the territory.
 Continuing south thirty-five degrees east twelve miles we come to the King Verde, located on the Veta Mcndre, or mother lode. Here another car of ma chinery from Denver has been deliv- cred, including a forty horse power hoisting engine with all it's appliances. the last loads being delivered at the mine on Friday. November zS. This Is another complete outfit of the most modern machinery.
 Changing our direction to northwest and fifteen miles distant, we come to the Darling group of mines. incorpu- rated under the title of the Valenzu- ella Copper company. This group chr- ries copper, gold and silver in good values. A gasoline hoist of twenty-five horse power was installed upon this property last summer, since which time systematic development has been going-on with encouraging results.
 Next in order is the old Maraquita mine. five miles west of Quartzsite. IL is reported upon good authority that ex-Senator Dorsey has contracted for this property. to pay therefor $1OO,O0O conditioned upon the ore samplfng from s5 to s6 per ton.
 The Middle Camp and the Chollas, the former six miles west and the latter six miles southwest, make the circuit of our mountain trimmed valley with it's subterranean lake of water at depth of 8 to 10 feet from the surface. These two camps have many fine copper pros poets awaiting development, and it is confidently expected that when the Quarzsite Smelling company gets it's sampling works running where pros pectors can take their ores and get cash values therefor work will be greatly Stimulated and rapid development made. The writer of this was shoCn telegram from Denver about ten days ago saying the machinery had been bought and would be shipped at once, and it can safely be said it is due To arrive at Mohawk Summit any day now.

WARNING ABOUT ROYALTY.

Some remarkable yarn-spinning con-
 corning the royal family of Russia has been going on for several months. The Czar has been pictured as suffering from various kinds of brain trouble,
 and his wife as in deep melancholia be- cause all her children are girls. The czar's brother. it seems, is insane. The desire of his majesty to abdicate every now and then reaches a critical point. The continuation appears to have been reached in the story that the czar has just been rescued with extreme diff culty from the overpowering influence of a mesmerist, who figures in the re- ports like some Mephistophelian fiend with pointed ears and tail Not so very long ago there were stories that the German kaiser had diseased ear that was slowly driving him mad. and

It will be good news to the mothers of small children to learn that croup can be prevented. The first sign of croup is hoarseness. A day of two be- fore the attack the child becomes hcelrse. This is soon followed by q pc culiar rough cough. Give Chamber lain's Cough Remedy freely as soon as the child becomes hoarse. or even after the rough cough appears, and it will dispel all symptoms of croup. In this way all danger and anxiety may be avoided. TnIs remedy is used by many thousands of mothers and has never Dcen known to fail. 1t is, in fact, the only remedy that can always be de- pended upon and that is pleasant and safe to take.

MINNESOTA, THURSDAY. OCTOBER 80, 1902

True, there are game laws, some en-
forced and others left to mildew and
become obsolete on the dusty shelves
of gamekeeper's Office. Certain
localities have enacted laws pro-
hibiting the destruction of wren,
robin and thrush; but they are only
partially enforced. The small boy
looks on animality as his legitimate
prey. If he be not taught to respect
lower life in its helplessness and al
most indefensible condition, how can
he reverence the sacredness of human
life as exempt from violence and ami
hilation, after having arrived at mans
estate? The true manliness lies in q
generous forbesrance and a pitiful
mercy toward that which is weak and
defenseless.
Exclusively, the expediency, utility,
or pleasure of an act of cruelty, is no
excuse for its perpetration. X. M.

A Primeval Instinct.

any gun made, and are
entirely free from danger,
smoke and noise. With
practice any boy may become crack
shot. The possession of good gun
helps to make boy manly and affords
him amusement of an innocent and
practical kind"
Thus runs an advertisement in a
weIl-known newspaper. The 'sad" is
accompanied by cut, in which small
boy in knickerbockers is shooting at q
number of small birds on the wing.
A cursory inspection of the picture
holds little meaning for the nonce; but
on second thought it suggests the idea
of cruelty and a disregard for life.
The primeval instincts of our ancestors
are still strong within us, and the idea
of Staying for subsistence or pleasures
sake rises paramount even in these
latter days, in giving modern society
an occasional picture of that hideous
abattoir-the killing pen of our world
famed stockyards.
The firearm or air rifle has its legiti-
mate place. Its regular handling in.
sures steady eye and hand; and gen.
crates confidence and poise scarcely
equalled by any other mode of amuse-
ment, physical or mental. But is it
necessary to use the birds of the air,
the songsters of the bush, as targets
Even in this day, in the various por-
tions of the earth where life is held
cheaply, and the sacredness of indi-
vidual existence is balanced at the
value of a gnat, the animal kingdom
enjoys greater security from depreda-
tiOn and death than do their kindred
in so-called civilized countries and
states.
Barbarism is but thinly veiled under
the veneer of modern socialism after
all. The feather on the leghorn hat,
the piumes coiled daintily along the
Gainsborough, are removed but a step
from the dancing headdress of the
Zulu or Maori. The diamond nes-
tling in the pearly lobe of my lady's
ear, is only grade removed from the
pendent ring of Hottentot and Kanaka,
in that she wears her adornment with
the better grace.
The primordial instincts and tenden-
cies are sufficiently strong in the young
without the encouragement OF that
which is rstrogressive and leads to q
refined cruelty in maturer years, which
is the bane and blot on society today

this brilliant victory, but not SO the
stern old Roman Consul Manlius.
Instead of feeling proud of being the
father of such a valiant son, instead of
showering praise upon him and weeping
for JOY on his neck, and instead of
bidding him to 60 and take the spoils
of the Latin general and present them
to the Roman Senate, Manlius ad-
dressed his son in these chilling words:
"Titus Manlius, as thou hast regarded
neither the dignity of the Consulate
nor the commands of thy father-as
thou has destroyed military discipline
and set an example of disobedience,
thou hast reduced me to the deplorable
extremity of sacrificing either my son
or my country. Lictor, bind his hands,
and let his death be an example to the
Romans in the future"
Thus perished one of the chief heroes
of what is known as the Great Latin
War, which began 339 B. G. It is said
that when the youthful champions
head was struck off, a scream of horror
ran through the Roman ranks. He
was buried with military honors out
side the camp amid the wailing of the
Roman soldiery. Manlius, the father,
was forever regarded with horror, while
the heroic battle in which young
Titus fought the naughty Latin gen.
eral, became household story among
the people Of the Roman empire. S.

is really but small part, mere aux
iliary.
IT yOu wish to see a beautiful face in
the glass present a beautiful face be-
fore the glass; if you earnestly search
for the good in literature you must
lend your own life experiences. So
many readers are monuments of genu-
inc selfishness, seeking what they may
devour for the mere sake of an appe-
tite. AS readers, we must learn to
give while we receive, and double
portion will be ours. AS we read we
owe a debt to the author while he
speaks to us. In instruction the best
conversation is the one interrupted by
question. We must seek to be mutual
as readers, earnest and honest in
thought and purpose, first to self and
second to our instructor, and we shall
truely find the Holy Grail at home
within our life.
True literature must embody the
ideal in language of the real in the
life of the author OF as he has seen it
in others. 1 have read "In His Steps,
and can say that 1 did not like it.
There were some very beautiful and
touching portrayals, which taken apart
possessed some true merit, but none
can measure up to Little Nell. Taking
the purpose of the book as whole,
find fault with it because its ideallza-
tions are sophistical and not possible
of realization, not practical in every
day life.
Such books as the Rev. MI. Sheldon's
in the hands of some temperaments
will work permanent injury. l can
read such books and derive benefit
from parts Of them, but the whole
defeats its own purpose. A thing to
be of genuine merit to thinking minds
must be strictly rational and practical.
In the life that is to be subjective
consciousness may be the whole life,
and that life absolutely emotional, but
the present life, being physical and
dependent upon physical, is, and must
always be dominated and guided by
the objective Consciousness. Ration
ality and reasonableness must be the
compass of this life, which must be
content within its limitations. Il
It is the human nature in the works
of Dickens that stamps him a great
artist; this Sheldon can not claim in
the book "In His Steps," Why was
this book so widely read? For two
reasons. First, curiosity to know and
see what thing is-a condition more
or less dominant in all people. Second,
the everlasting search of the intensely
emotional and religious temperaments
for material to satisfy these desires. The
latter is form of intemperance, and
think dangerous one, for it some
times dethrOnes reason and destroys
citizenship. With broad intellectual
minds such literature has no abiding
place. Who ever heard of such works
becoming classics? A. r. S.

Paper Read Before the Cha,ttauq,4d Circle.
)HARLES Dickens is one of the
II worlds greatest humanitarian
~ writer's, outranked in English
only by Shakespeare. Shake
speare, while humanitarian, is intense
ly dramatic in form, richly poetical in
language, and therefore engrafts his
life philosophy upon the student
through the emotional life; that deep,
fundamental, aesthetic beauty of emo
tional life. and not that superficial
popular, sentimentality in emotion
which is being nourished by so
much light literature of today. Dickens,
while perhaps as broadly humanitarian,
was purely prose writer; appealing
to the natural, common, everyday,
teachable life of men in a plain,
natural, logical way. 1t is much
easier to read Dickens than Shake
speare; the language is all present in
form, while in Shakespeare there is so
much unseen reading to do, reading
between lines and whole pages in a
single word or clause. It is this which
makes such literature a matter of
real deep study.
In careful study of Dickens-not
in language but in philosophy-you are
brought face to face with the deep and
living interests and experiences of the
universal life of men. He is universal
in his portrayals of character, dealing
with the fundamental and essential in
human life; voicing in tho concrete
ideals that are worked out into the
freedom of real living.
Perhaps it is this very universally
that makes Dickens so very tedious
and uninteresting to many readers. I
have often heard people say that one
has to read SO much having nothing to
do with the story, and has to carry so
many characters in mind, that they got
them all mixed mp. The real trouble
was that they were not in sympathy
with the author; they were looking
for the superficial, sensational interest,
the mere thread of the story, and that
