The Syivauite rlIne.

Supt. James Carson, Of the
Sylvsnse mine, recently returned
from the eastsand went. up to the
mine. 1t is understood that devel-
opment worksduring the winter has
resulted in. the! discovery. Of new
|ore tsodies in this famous old prop
erty. 1t is also reported that the
company has in view the erection
of concentrating plant for the
recovery of large quantities of wire
and native silver that was thrown
over The dump during the early
operation of this property. 1t will
be remembered that the old work.
ings produced large quantities of
metallic silver, much of which was
lost in the bsoding of the product
on account of it becoming mixed
with the waste and dumped out
with the waste material from the
mine. 1t is also found that there
is a large sprinEIing OF rich sui.
phide silver ore mixed with these
waste heaps, which will be saved
in the process of concentration.
This will add. very materially to
the quantity as well as quality of
the concentrates obtained by the
process. Large profits should ac-
crue above the. expense of treat
ment of the accumulated dump, in
our judgment.

1t is not often that in speaking OF a
social event in our town, it is necessary
to say that it was a failure-a complete
failure. Such, however, must be said Of
the sociable given by the G. E. socities
at the U. G. church last Friday evening.
Elaborate preparations had b.en made
for jolly good time. The. committee in
charge, had spared no pains in arrang-
ing to have every thing in the very best
order. Valentines were made for eyery
bo1 1y, games were planned, and a short
but interesting program arranged. The
refreshments, too had been prepared
with the greatest cure, and were appro
pirate to the occasion, the sandwiches
and cookies being heart-shaped. Imag.
inc the feelings Of the members of the
committee when they saw their plans for
the evening completely overturned their
hard work made Of no avail, and the
pleasure OF every grown person present.
spelled by tho actions os a humber NJ
the children. Even during the shov,
program, order could not be had. md
during the whole evening tho noise was
e.most unbearable. Farsnts DO not like
tobe told their duty in regard to their
children, nor 10 W. like to advise in such
matters. but we feel that it is but just to
the children that the paren Ii should look
into this matter. We think that child.
reu' should have the privilege OF attend
ing church socribles, etc, but that they
should dbe,sccompained tie by their parents
cr some other person, with authority to
sss that they behave properly.

"!And to think that Wasbineton's
birthday should come ON any other day
buts school day
Although st. Vale ntine's day came on
Saturday we celebrated it on Friday in
the usual way by having valentine box
Miss Meyer also had one in her room.
We think that Abraham Lincoln w.s
as praise worthy as George Washington
and that his birthday should be a RoIi.
day. but even though we suggested this
to Professor Dilworth he did not agree
with US and we spent the twelfth of Feb.
ruary much as any other school day.
The fourth grade of Miss Movers
room is doing excellent work at the pre.
sent in learning 10 spell tine names of the
states, capitals and also their pripcipal
rivers. The fifth grade is also doing
nicely in all their studies and the con.
duct. attendance and every thing has
improved much during the past month.
II the school time has not been exactfo-
the past few weeks, don't blame the ian.
itor or the teachers, as the clock In the
grammar department (Which has done
duuy for the past twenty four years or
more) has at last decided to take a vsca.
tion. this makes it necessary for the
teachers and janitor to depend on watch.
es and consequently the time is kept at
sixes and sevens. We think that if a lit.
tie money were spent on new clock il
would be great Improvement and
something appreciated by all. 'a -

"a RIGHTEOUS PROTEST.

There Is trouble In Texas over the new
antitrust law. The former statue was
declared to be unconstitutional because
1T exempted farmers organizations and
labor organizations from Its provisions.
In order to guard against this the last
enactment included both farmers and
.workingmen, and now the la boring men
are protesting most vigorously aEainst It.
Meetings were held on Saturday night
and on Sunday In Dallas and other cities
at which the new law. was denounced as
a death blow atSorganizcd labor. Printed
protest petitions were circulated for Sig
ma lures to be sent to Governor Ganham.
The following among long series series OF
resolutions was adopted at each meeting:
"Resolved. That we earnestly petition
Governor Lanham; to submit to the spe-
cial session Of the eglslature such bill
as will make 1t clear that Worklngmen
in Texas have the right to organize 70 for
their own protection = III Il
or course. they have a right to organ
lie for their protection or for any other
object which does not infringe upon the
rights OF others. The Texas Legislature
was antitrust crazy to have enacted
such q law, and 1t will not stand.

DRINKING AMONG WOMEN 2

Rev, Dr. L. A. Banks. pastor Of the
Grace street Methodist Church, OF New
York city, declared in recent discourse Sc
that .intemperance is increasing among
the respectable women Of that city,
IT have looked into this question" ne
said, land some Of these days 7 Will give
some startling facts. The most danger
Gus drinking by women Is ~ the better
and middle classes, In New York city
women, members Of the churches, drink
iwhiskey cocktails In public on Sunday
T say nothing but what can prove IN
court"
Wo fear that the preacher Is right, and
this, in our view is the worst phase Of
the liquor evil to-day. When the women
take to drink. what can we expect Of
their offspring? 4
