AROUND MORRIsTOwN.

Tn the san Domingo district the Mari copa Gold company has installed three dry concentrators of four, six and nine horse power. run by gasoline engines. The machines were installed several months ago and given a successful trial, but at present are waiting for dry weather before starting up. It is eX- pected that they will be in operation within the next six weeks. If the rains abate. and the cleanup should be very remunerative. as the company has an abundance of rich placer ground upon which to work. It is said that the White Cloud will start sinking i:s main shaft within the next ten days.

The Puddle Tragedy.

In Cleveland, O., the other day a young woman was arrested and held for trial because in crossing a mud puddle in one or the city parks she chose to lift her skirts out of the vet and in so doing displayed several quite superhuous inches of hosiery. In vain the young woman protested in court that the puddle had proved deeper than she had anticipated, and in order to save her raiment from immersion it was positively necessary for her to hoist her lingerie a little higher than was fitting for most society occasions. The judge, q surly man, we take it, With little or no appreciation of the feminine form divine, would have none of this explanation. He held the young woman for further examination when it is expected that the entire case will be thoroughly aired. In the meantime 1t has stopped raining in Cleveland. the puddle in the park has fallen several inches. and the young woman is now in state of mind for fear that the judge won't accept her affidavit with regard to the puddle's real depth at the time of the skirt elevation. What the pen alty is which Cleveland justice will in- fiict for this peculiarly feminine crime remains to be seen, but always grant ing that the young woman was wearing particularly pretty hosiery at the time. 1t seems to us that instead of being incarcerated the young woman should be commended, if not publicly thanked. | Ter enhancing the beauty of the sur rounding scenery. The sudden appear ance of a pretty ankle making it's way ! across some muddy crossing has ere this seemed like the silver lining to the clouds of many rainy day. And then, perchance, the puddle was over the young woman's head. and she, perhaps. was no swimmer! Would the Cleveland authorities have had her incur the risk i of committing suicide simply because some Peeping Tom with a rubber neck endeavored to tell the time by one of the clocks on her pretty stockings Perish the thought! In the name of all
 that is chivalrous this Cleveland judge
 must let this young woman go.
 Should she be convicted, this learned |. judge to a certainty will find all the members of the Rainy Day club in his
 hair. This organization, to a woman | can be relied upon to rise to this occa-
 sion just as surely as the young wo-
 mans skirt rose to the puddle.-New

THE VERMONTER.

On the northwest slope of Mt. Union there is a group of three claims, the property of F.. F.. Breed. that are worth the attention of any one who is look ing for mines that will produce. MT. Breed has named it the ''Vermonter" group and the fact that it has already produced bullion and given snug re- turns to it's owner. justifies one in be- lieving that it will produce again when worked.
 On the Vermonter claim itself the de- Velopment consists of a 60-foot and ! 12- foot shaft. also an open cut of 100 feet on the ledge. Twenty years ago the ledge was worked on the surfaCe e by miners and the ore they took out vas packed on burros to Prescott and from there hauled by wagon to the railroad. It proved to be a rather eX- pcnsive business and he soon discon- tinued shipping. preferring to await the erection of reduction works nearer the mines On the various dumps one ma 7 see about 300 tons of ore that the owner is not ashamed of. It is said to aver age SIP in gold and SIS in silver.

or l per cent of the exports were sold at prices lower than were asked for them at home. Less than one-thirtieth of l per cent of our total production was sold at the reduction in price. That is what it cost to keep 6,75O GOO wage earners employed at full time at good wages. When the Wilson act was in force there was a wholesale slaughter of American manufactured goods abroad in order to keep from starvation at home.
 Pains have been taken to inquire about the prices for which American goods are sold in foreign countries. MT. R. NJ. Wilson. a resident. of Sydney. Australia. Mclean Bros. & Rigg, Linn ited, and others furnish prices for which American reapers, binders ani other things are sold, showing that they cost much more there than in the United States. The Deering binder, with the latest Improvements, sells for Sl82 in Australia and for $125 in this country. Similar reports were made as to various other articles, both in Aus tralia and in Europe. Pig lead Is eX- : ported in' bond from the United States , by Mexico and is sold in free trade England at the Mexican price. But no American lead is exported The price in New York has been about cents for a year, while the price in England has been 21A cents.
 The democratic text book asserts that the wire rope manufa cturers sell for export all over the world for one-half to one-third the price charged domestic consumers. John A. Robeling & Sons Co. of Trenton, perhaps the largest ex- porters, denOunce the statement as n deliberate falsehood." The company says that "prices Tor export at present are higher than those charged the larger American consumers But lex port wire ropes are extremely limited in quantity" The company denounces statements about wire in the demo- cratic book as probably made by "an escaped lunatic."

ANG EL AND BESS
Good Ftrae of Men Employed and
 More Will Be Added.

A gentleman who returned yesterday from visit to Wickenburg and vicinity says he made a short side trip to the Angel and Bess mines being opera ted by George F. Sanders. On the Angel mine there is a double compartment shaft 200 feet deep well timbered all thc way down and crosscutting is being done on the 50-foot, 100-foot an1 20c- foot levels. In all there is probably 125 feet of crosscutting. The mine is equipped with a 12-horse power gaso- line hoist, good office and camp bni!l- ings and altogether everything is nicely arranged.
 On the Bess property the shaft is down so feet where crosscutting has begun. The hoisting so far has ali been done with a windlass but steam hoist will be erected soon. Eighteen men are now employed on these prop cities but the fccoe will in q short time be increased to 45 men.
 There is said to be remarkably fine surface showing on the Bess, the prop erly being crossed by three big parali el ledges. The crosse utting at the 6J-fn"t level ought to reveal some knowledge of these veins lower down.

 Hip-Pocket Reform.

The long delayed crusade against the towards and desperadoes who make armories of their. hip pockets appears to have broken out simultaneously all over the south. The people who stand for law and order have reason to be glad of the fact. Our civilization has been cursed altogether too long by the prevalence of the idiotic. semi-civilized custom of men going about every day loaded with concealed deadly weapons and ready to do murder on the simplest provocation.
 Over in Memphis the other day one of the swellest young roysterers in the village was arraigned before the police judge for being found with a pistol hid under his coat tails. All sorts of pleas were made in his behalf. but without avail, and the judge popped the stiffest sort of fine on the fellow The news papers are authority that the case has resulted in a wholesale unloading Of hio pockets in that community
 out in Texas for some years past the courts have been dealing with increas- ing severity with the pistol carrying crowd and the result has been a notice able decrease in the number of shooting affrays and street duels to the death.
 It has never been to our credit in these southern communities that public sentiment for so long tolerated the eX- aggerated idea of honor that only blood and perhaps the taking of q life could satisfy insult and assault The notion that man must be a coward because he would not get a gun and go aftei. the life of one who had called him q viIa name or threatened "to push In his face" has dominated our street chiv- airy.
 It Is sign of distinct progress when our criminal court judges from Vir- ginia to Texas. as by common purpose, carry on this fresh crusade against the

have more or less of a merit to warrant expenditure of large sums of money. The New Year claim is now assuming an interested rating in mining, and the beginning of operations again is watched with a great deal of interest. Our reporter who lately passed along the zone 1t lays on. and watched the preparatory inauguration of work at that point. as well as in other mines. and learned also that the famous Little Jessie was again to be operated on a gigantic scale. was impressed highly with the mining outlook of that par ticular section. The New Year is a de- cidedly good looking piece of ground, carrying a sulphide ore that will run about $20 in gold. It has a well defined Assure vein of three feet. with d shaft some three hundred feet deep, and with about 200 feet of drifting Located as it is on the south side lines with the Jessie, there seems to be no reason why 1t, too. should not be as well regarded as its neighbor is. We hear that since the work on this mins Is to be com- menced again a depth of 800 feet will he given and that at least GOO feet of drifting will be done. It is the inten- tion to do nothing but development work and this gives 1t with the show ing that it makes today more than an ordinary regard in mining. me mine is under the superintendency of F. s. Campbell. whose capability in that re- spect is Gnquestioned. Mir Campbell has devoted a great many years to his vocation here as elsewhere and in in- augurating work on the New Year seems to have a mechanical regard as well as practical mining insight that leads one to the belief that the new work will be followed with a good showing.

CHAPARREL DISTRICT
Preparations f1r Developing the New

It seems that where there is so much general activity and prominence as IS centered today in and round the Chaparral district, there would hardly be enough mines to go around. says the Journal Miner In this old time favored and productive region one by one Of late have the many mines commenced tu be opened up again, and the result is the same.

Place after place was offered. but she scornfully rejected every one. Did you ever hear anything so un- reasonable in your life,'' cried the men to each other, mot a penny in the world actually living on charity, and won't do q thing" Finally. in a gust of passion. one of the men blurted out , to the wsman the naked tiuth-that her husband had died absolutely bankrupt and that his friends had been providing Tor her The woman was aghast She had never had an idea of the real state of affairs. and the minute she knew the truth she accepted the situation with a courage. philosophy and determina- tion to make the best of it that fairly astonished every one.
 So far as business women are con- cerned, the chief enemy to their prog ress is mans fear of telling them the truth. A man who has a clerk who falls into careless ways. or who has some annoying fault, will talk 10 him plainly and give him a chance to cor rect 1t before he dlsmisses him: but he will not give a girl the same chance He won't tell her the truth about her faults. He will make an excuse about business being bad, and then turn her off rather than speak the truth to her. How many times has this happened in our big cities! Girls know.
 Another thing-and l don't know a more pathetic thing-is that the whole world seems banded together to deceive women about tEe real facts of working life
 Now there's plenty of work in the world for every industrious and intelli- gent girl, but it's nothing short of a crime to make her believe that there is any get-rich-quick way to fortune: and l never read of any of these romances about picturesque modes of getting d living that fails to arouse in me a righteous contempt for the authors of such stories.-Helen Oldfleld in Chicago Tribune

Tell Women the Truth.

The principal cause of what is called woman's unreasolableness is the direct result of her not being told the truth. Half the time a woman does not know how she stands to face a problem, be- cause she cannot get man to tell her the simple facts in the case. He will say all sorts of soothing things to her and mislead her with rosy hopes, and he will try to make up by the fervor of his compliments by the lies he is telling her. and so she goes blundering along. making all sorts of mistakes, that she might have been saved from if anybody had had the courage to tell her the truth.
 A curious example of this once came under my own observation. A man died, leaving his widow without any means of support. His friends. in the most delicate way in the world pro- vided for her. and began exerting them- selves to get some occupation for her by which she could support herself

A Young Philosopher.

Verify, as the Good Book says. wis dom shall come out of the mouths of babes and stockings. Out at Wilkes barre the other day, Condy McCole pre- vented the rest of the school children from going on strike because the daughter of a non-union man was in the class. In defense of his attitude, the little chap said:
 Little children can't boss their fath- CTS. If the fathers go on strike, the children ain't got nothin' to do with it. They ain't to blame. It ain't right for her father to work, but if we had gone on strike, then lots of us breakers boys wouldn't have had no schoolin', and this is the only chance we have to get any elarnin'. 'ceptin' the night schools. and boys that work in the breaker all day is pretty tired at night time. That little girl they kicked about is all right cause she can't help what her father goes and does, and it ain't right to stop school just because of that, specially when we has to get some learnin'." If COndy McCole were to be told that he is a philosopher, he would probably imagine that he had been called a bad name. But if the members of the school board who recently expelled six teach CTS because members of their families had declined to join the strikers, pos sessed one-thousandth part of his phil osophy, that injustice would not have been perpetrated. If the men who order strikes, and those who blindly follow | their leaders. possessed one-tithe of his common sense, there would be less fric-
 tion between the employer and the em- ployed. Little Condy McCole may never
 be able to obtain much "learnin," but
 he will doubtless make an honest man
 who will obtain and retain the conf
 dence of his employers. no matter what
 his future position in life.-Buffalo 1 Times

EXports and Prices

The assertion made some weeks ago by Chairman Griggs of the democratic congressional committee. that he would furnish proof that American goods are sold cheaper in foreign countries than in the United States still lacks the proof. In fact, excepting in compara- lively rare instances, the opposite is the case. An official statement for the last fiscal year shows that $13.O01, 704.- coo worth of goods were manufactured in this country, of which $403, ,S90 763 were exported and only about $3,S93, ,000,
