with four guns and some hundreds Of
men Forty were killed and eighty were

The soldier who rushes Notifications
in the face OF almost certain death deserves
his glory, none the less because inspired by
the cheers Of his comrades. and smell OF
powder, the rattle of musketry and the
knowledge that medals and honors await
him II he survives. But there is a form of
heroism higher yet 1t is that form which
was exemplifled by PETER MURPHY Of New
Rochelle, in the wreck which followed
the collision in the Park avenue tunnel
somo weeks ago. Pinned down by the
weight of timbers which crushed his leg
and kept him at the mercy of the flames
which were almost certain TO start in the
debris. he waved aid aside as soon as he
learned that TO lessen the pressure which
was torturing him would endanger the lives
of others pinned under the piled-up cars.
Uncomplaining, he gave advice 10 the
workers who were laboring TO save others.
When at last the time came when he might
be released, he was as shrewd as any lawyer
in cross-questioning the rescucrs to ascer-
tain whether there was any one else TO be
sttended to. He forced an Irish joke or
two In the twinges of his agony. And in
the hospital where the leg was amputated
that might perhaps have been saved had lie
permitted himself 10 he rescued at his first
opportunity, he was so brave. SO patient
and so cheerful in his suffering that the
nurses wcpt when he left.
PETER MURPHY was well loved in the
city Of his home before his great test came.
II is easy for all the world to understand
why, now. New Rochelle did well 10 do
very signal honor to PETER MURPHY, Hero
of Peace, when he returned 10 his home on
Sunday, one leg gone, his left arm and side
parelyzed but with his manly heart beat
ing as strong as ever.

MINES AND MINING.

three mills are crushing steadily on the
low-grade ore dumps, which average
SIS per ton.
c. f. Nickel and Tom Newlove are
owners of a peculiar mineral deposit
fourteen miles south of this city. There
is a formation 80 feet wide and of un-
known depth The material is of a bright
yellow color, turning magenta when
roasted In either shade it forms per-
manent dye which sets in cotton or WOOL

out The boys believe that they have a
very valuable paint mine.-Reno Journal.
1t is a well-known fact that the Yogo
field in Montana is the only place in the
world where sapphires are found in a
lead in place. In fact, the Oriental sap
phires, which, before the discovery of
the Yogo mines. were supposed to be
the finest in the world are only mined
to any extent in Burmah and Siam
where they are found in the gravel as
sociated with rubies and other precious
stones.
Abe Cohn has a sample of the ore taken
from the shaft of the company mining at
Steamboat Springs. at depth of 81 feet
As a specimen 1t is unique. 1t has every
appearance Of having been deposited by
water action or having been melted by
volcanic fires. 1t is solid metal, appar-
emily iron, and has the appearance some
what of pyrites save in that 1t not crys-
talized as are pyrites and 1T has the tex

WILL STOP CARD PLAYING.
General Manager kruttschnitt Thinks the
Practice Nuisance.

Julius Kruttschnitt general manager
Of the Southern Pacific Company, has is
sued a pronunciamento that is designed
to do away with card playing on the com
pany's trains. Kruttschnitt does not look
with favor upon card playing any more
than he does upon the maintenance of
bars upon the Oakland boats, and, as one
item in his scheme for improving the
train service and enhancing the comfort
and convenience of passengers, he has
determined that card playing shall be
suppressed He has accordingly issued
an order which Officially frowns upon the
pastime. The order is directed to the
Denison News Company, which caters
TO the necessities of card players on the
Southern Pacific trains, and henceforth
the train boys will not be permitted to
ply their hitherto profitable practice of
organizing card parties TO play for ci-
gars and cooling beverages, or to en-
courage card playing in any form.
The effect of the new order will be par
ticuIarly felt on the Coast division trains,
on which, more than on any other trains.
card games have been the sole divertise-
ment of many regular patrons of the
road for years past. The order will have
the effect of curtailing the monthly earn
ings of every news agent on the division
from SIS to $40 a month, and the news
agents are accordingly up in arms over
what they characterize as the needless
interference of the companys officials.
The officials justify the order. how
ever, by declaring that the card
games on the coast-llne trains have of
late assumed the character of a nuisance,
and that If the suppression of card play
ing works any hardships the news
agents they have brought 1t upon them
selves.
The story goes that certain promi-
nent official of the Southern Pacific dis
covered only few days ago that the
card games were a nuisance and ought to
be suppressed. The identity of the offic-
ial is not mentioned. but 1t Is limited that
it was no less parsonage than the gem
eral manager himself. whose home is at
Burlingame He was asked by the news
agent of the train. who was unacquainted
with the railroad official If he would
take to take a hand at whist. The rail-
news agent slapped him Familiarity on the
back and said Come on, old man, be a
coed fellow" The next day General Man
ager Kruttschnitts order suppressing
<card playing made it's appearance. and
during the past two or three days the
card players who frequent the smoking
ears of the trains on the coast division
have been put TO the necessity of employ
ing other means of Willing away the
time during their trips up and down the
road.
1t is explained that the order OF General
Manager Kruttschnitt is not designed to
correct the morals manners of passen-
gers. and that passengers will not be de-
ned the privilege of playing cards If they
see fit. All news agents on the company's
trains, however. will be prevented. under
pain of dismissal, from having anything
to do with card playing or In any way
facilitating card games.-San Francisco
Chronicle.

the period of intense anxiety which at
tended the detonations two luminous
circles, like rainbows. appeared in the

were presumably the reflection of the
flames in the crater of La SOufriere.
Subsequently dense cloud of steam
arose from the crater, but this soon
dispersed. The weather now is fair.
