youthful native population, who, it is to be feared, are not as well grounded in the rudlmentS of education as pre- vious generations of American school children were. The common school sys- tenn has been in operation for many years, and has become overloaded with time consuming studies. which in many instances make it impossible to give sufficient attention to the ground work of education.
 That the schools are not accomplish ing all that is expected of them in the thorough mastery of English grammar
 is apparent from the atrotiCus slips in conversation overheard in the st eet and wherever the people cong:egate. Ignorance of the language is betrayed in correspondence and the evidence is cumulative that the three time honored "k's' are sadly neglected. The con- mon school curriculum of a former day was short. The teaching of the old fashioned school masters aimed to be thorough in the fundamental branches. The vigorous English of the old race of statesmen, which does not suffer in comparison with modern American elo- quence, was due in large measure to an accurate knowledge of English speech obtained in wayside schools, whose methods aIe now regarded as very much out of date.-Philadelphia Led ger

DOWNFALL OF ABE BUZZARD.

Abe Buzzard, the faomus Welch mountain outlaw, has come 10 a most inglorious finish. Abe BuzZard has been a regular dime novel hero of the deepest dye. Local tradition and imag- inativc newspaper correspondents have thrown around his personality and his career a glamour of criminal romance that have ranged him with the most famous and interesting outlaws of his tory. He has been credited with every crime from pitch andtoss to man. slaughter" and with strength, courage and cunning that gave him immunity from arrest or molestat.on by the Of ficers of the law. And now he has been arrested without difficulty, by a single, commonplace city policeman, for an offensc altogether out of harmony with his great reputation. Ale Buzzard was caught stealing chickens and was run in by the cop" "Oh, what d fall was there, my countrymen," Abe Bug gard as a dime novel hero is done for and his old place among the criminal heroes will know him no more forever. For who ever heard of Robin Hood, or Dick Turpin, or Jack Sheppard, or Jesse James, or the Apache Kid steal ing chickens and getting caught at it? Rochester DemocIat and Chronicle.

THE MINING INDUSTRY
aguuEw1uIEz11uzZzu1zuunu

The management, which is entirely | in the hands of the Lewisohns, has not been content with the present cost of operation and has been experimenting
 with the pyritic system of smelting. It equipped one of it's three furnaces for u L. imethod of treatment. It is noN' officially announced that the system is a pronounced success with the Duck town ores, and that the company will not only change over its other furnaces
 to this system, but will add new fur naces and pay for them out of earn ings. It is expected that by next year the company will be able to produce IS, 000,0 000 pounds of copper. and by 1905 to be producing at the rate of 25,000, GOO pounds per annum, at a cost of 6 cents per pound, as compared with S.5 Centsj at the present time. Under the new system the necessity of roasting the ore will be obviated. The new system will save considerable labor costs and heavy damages to farmers byS reason of the smoke nuisance caus- ing damage to farming lands. The Tennessee company is now mining at a depth of 400 feet and is working on an or,t body 16O feet wide.

 district upon a footing of equality with the test predicted for the large Ari- zona mines, or those just over the line in Mexico, where labor is also cheap, and, as measured by Colorado labor, decidedly inefficient. In the Tennessee district the copper ore carries no gold or silver a fact to be kept in mind when comparing results there with those thus farachieved in this state, where, owing to the opposition of the trust refneries, the pyritic system of smelling has never enjoyed a fair field. : The policy of opposition is wrong. An active market for low grade copper ores would develop in many properties quantities of smelting ore. The latter. from $20 per ton upward, could be sent to the trust smelters, much to the ad- vantage of the latter, where capacity has not been fully employed for the past two years.-Rocky Mountain News.

gently delivered to the Valensuella mines about fifteen miles northwest of | Quartzite, 1S,0O0 pounds of miscellan- eous freight. and. along with lotion
 shelter, has yet 50 tons to freight to that very promising property. Col. Richard Darling, the resident general manager of the Valensuella company, 1 has also purchased of Clampit Bros. a well boring outfit, and will sink a 800 foot well in advance of the installation of the smelting plant. With an ideal location. admitting of rapid and most
 equonomical handling of the ores, this
 property has much to commend it.
 Of the Defiance company's mines, of
 which B. G. Smith is the principal owner and the resident active manager. the recent delivery of ten tons of mis- cellaneous freight would presage an- other season of the intensive develop ment work that has characterized the
 operations of this company from the first clink Of the drill. The Defiance
 property is eight miles east of Quartz ite contiguous to the once celebrated
 Plomosa Gulch and Crystal Butte plac- erfields, that, but little more than two
 decades az rendered up many thous- ands of ounces of the yellow metal to the pan and rocker. While the mine has. in common with nearly all of it's Arizona prototypes, presented many annoying variations from established precedents in gold mines, it has. under MT. Smiths management, attained an advanced stage of effective develop ment. As close corporation it has sought this end rather than exploita- ton, and will now soon be numbered among the active gold producers of Yuma county.
 Word has been received that a 120- stamp mill, stamps to be of 1000 pounds each, has been contracted for and will soon be in the course of erection on the properties owned and managed by O. A. Pease, at Middlecamp, eight miles to, the west of Quartzite. Here, also, are situated the promising prop critics of the Prosperity company, now showing every indication of ultimately realizing alloXpectation founded upon them.
 Numerous other properties in and around Quartzite are busily advencing development work and are rapidly at tainng a stage of actual production that will place the district among the notable copper and gold producers Of the territory.

NOW BOUND IN CANVASS.
Law Books No Longer Bound in Calf
 Skin.

For several hundreds of years law
 books have been uniformly bound in what has come to be known as law sheep and law calf. Recently, how ever, a radical change was made. Law | calf and law sheep were discarded, and
 the books issued by the law book pub | fishing house came out attired in a suit of coarse canvas.
 As the ancient form had done con- tinuous duty for many centuries with apparent satisfaction to the profession, the innovation naturally caused sur prise. The truth of the matter is, how ever, that the termination of the reign of law sheep and law calf has long been secretly desired by a majority of the members of the profession. The
 main count in the indictment against law sheep and law calf is that they fail to stand the test of time. After
 twenty or thirty years of reasonable
 use-and that is by no means a long period of service for a law bOok-calf and sheepsbin begin to decOmpose and
 begin to Crumble into dust. The slightest contact between a book in
 this condition and the lawyers coat sleeve leaves it's mark, and the act of
 withdrawing such books from the SHtlNGS anu ItpldcllS them GdlSeS SuCn cloud of dust as to render life bur densome to the lawyer who finds it necessary to spend any length of time in his library.
 The new material is gray or drab colCred sort of canvas. It seems to be strong, is infinitely cleaner than the old form of covering, and, with facing of red and black leather and with gold letterings on the backs, presents an extremely neat appearance. Whether it will meet with greater success in re- sisting the ravages of time than it's predecessor the event alone can prove, but it is safe to say that whatever eff feet age will have upon it, the creation of dust will not be among them.
 All the various reports of cases in the different courts of this state, as well as the volumes of session laws and new text books are being bound with the new material, unless a con- tinuance of the old kind is insisted upon by the subscriber; and the popu- larity of the innovation is evidenced by the fact that, with hardly a single exception, the members of the profes- sion have accepted the change with out dissent.-New York Press.

MODERN ENGINEERING.
Difficult to Set Bounds for Its Achieve
 ment.

When Henry Meiggs built the first Peruvian railroad it was looked upon as one of the most daring feats of en- gineering ever accomplished or at tempted Seemingly insurmountable obstacles were overcome, and modern railroad engineers have since followed some of Meigg's ideas in construction through mountainous regions, until to- day there are few engineering prob lems in mountain railway building which are not approached with conf dence by the engineer. The proposal of the Pennsylvania railroad, however
 to tunnel from Jersey City under the Hudson river. the city of New York, the East river and q portion of Brook lyn, Long Island, is one of the modern attempts at engineering that is at tracing the attention of engineers ev-

anywhere. Essentially a mining prop
 osition, it involves much more than is
 usually contemplated in tunneling. It is a difficult and expensive undertak
 ing to tunnel under a great river. a
 mile in width, through the most | treacherous material known to engi- neers-silt, saturated with water, and for different from driving an excava- tion through a mountain, where the material is hard rock. In the latter case the cost can be arrived at with accuracy, but in the driving of a tun nel through soft mud there are inVolv ed elements of uncertainty and of diff ficulty not found in other classes of tunneling. It is roughly estimated that the cost of the work will approach $50,-
 1000, and it may exceed that sum,
 but as the traffic of the railroad ap-
 pears to demand it the construction of
 this sub-riVer tunnel has been com
 menced and it is progressing. Similar
 attempts have been previously made,
 but after a few months of difficult
 work and unsuccessful effort the pro-
 ject has been abandoned. The pres ent work, however. is well under way. A great amount of steel and concrete will be used in the construction, and different portions of it will be built according to the material through which it passes. One portion of the tunnel beneath the Hudson river will be what is known as the tube tunnel and will be practically without foun- dations. The river section will be con- structed by the use of shields and un- der air pressure, the compressors being required to supply 300, ,O00 cubic feet of free air per hour, at 50 pounds pres sure fer square inch.
 Miners are often called upon to solve difficult problems in cutting through but the magnitude of the Hudson river tunnel eclipses ordinarily mining ope- ratons, where engineering problems usually have to be considered from the standpoint of economy, such as is not generally contemplated in railroad en- gineering.
 There are many mining problems which remain untried which, though within the range of possibility to ac- COmplish, are not attempted because the calculated result does not justify the expense, and it is only when a corporation with almost unlimited cap ital at its disposal or a government. desires to achieve great feats of en- that engineers have an op- to demonstrate what modern scientific methods, properly applied, can accOmplish.-Mining and Scientific Press.

PYRITE SIMPLIFYING.
Possibilities for Deve Iopment of a
 Great industry.

While the pyritic process for smelt- ing low grade gold-copper ores hg s been all but strangled in this state by the short-sighted opposition of the American Smelling and Refining com pany. it has, under the direction of the Lewisohns of New York achie we'd a notable success in Tennessee, where the conditions are far Jess fGVora ble than those which exist in Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexi 20.
 With low wages and corresponding ly poor labor. cheap fuel, a. mountain of low grade copper ore a md a modern shelter, the Tennessee copper com pany has attracted consid erable atten- tiCn in the copper world, g avs the New York Journal of Finance. It has been producing about 100000 pounds of re- fined copper monthly at a cost, landed in New York. of S.5 cents per pound and started this year upon a dividend career with payment in Jnly Of S1.25 per share. It will pay anbther divi- dend of the same amount in January.
