M. Maiche, a French inventor, has
made some experiments with wireless
telephony in the forests at st. German.
The transmitter was placed on the top
of a house, but connected to the ground
In the manne of a lightning rod. A
thousand yards distant two poles 80
feet apart were connected together by
wire, and had a telephone receiver in
circuit. Sounds from the transmitter
were plainly heard in it. Receivers off
the line of transmission do not catch

Judging from the number OF Salt
Water Days that have been celebrated
this season it really looks as though
every resort in the State is trying to
revive the day, but that each resort
had selected a different day and some
are having three or four dates. Salt
Water Day has been a great occasion
in years past and the public generally
can stand having the celebration
spread out a little more and not quite
so strenuous all at once.

Pnnnies 1000 Years Old.

The extraordinary resuscitating pow
or of light has received a very curious
illustration in the silver mines at Lau-
rum. The mines had been abandoned
more than 1000 years ago as unworka-
BILE, and consisted for the most part of
the Stag produced by the working of
the miners. An enterprising English
man discovered that the mines con-
tanned plenty Of silver, which could
easily be removed by the superior mod
ern appliances. He discovered. how
ever, something far more valuable than
the silver, viz. some peoples of Aspe-
cies which had disappeared for ~ ken
turtles, the seed of which had lain Rr-
mant beneath the Stag for 1000 u ].

The Black Queen Excelsior.
PRICE BAKING POWDER c
CHICAGO

This company is pushing the
tunnel into Cascade mountain as
fast as two shifts with air drills
can break the ground which is
said to be getting harder each
round of holes. The main Excel
sior vein has been reached and the
tunnel is being driven on the same.
More or less ore has been exposed
already but it is the purpose of the
company to leave the ore standing
as far as practical in the drift un-
til spring opens, when slopes will
be started and the work of ore ex-
traction commenced. AT the pre-
sent rate of drifting on the vein ever
one thousand feet of STOPPING
ground will be opened here during
the winter and the main big Excel.
sior ore shutes penetrated before
spring is here. 1t will be remem-
bered that the Excelsior ore was
the highest grade grey copper that
was ever produced and shipped in
the Elk mountain district and
from it old Baxter acquired the
cognomon of the millionaire of
Poverty Gulch."

Treasury fountain.

1t was supposed that arrange
ments were about consumated
whereby force of miners would be
employed during the winter on the
Eureka properties. hhe recent
heavy storms has rendered unprac-
teal to put supplies there now for
the winter as the trails are perman-
emily blocked until spring. We
understand however that it is the
purpose of parties now interested
to open up the trails as early as
can be possible in the spring and
go to work systematically and de-
velope the property with view of
continuous operations. This we
consider the only thing necessary
to the making of great mine out of
what is considered . most prom
ising prospect at its present stage
of developement. We know of
none better il all this section, or
1bne that shows more surface ores.
1t takes time and money to put
large propositions on their feet and
properly equip them in order to
make them productive and divi
dend paying properties. What we
have said respecting this property
might be applicable to many 9TH
ers situated on or in the vicinity
of Treasury mountain. There are
numerous great veins of mineral
that traverse this section in all
directions, showing quantities of
ore at the out crops and we be-
lieve that the time is nearing when
they will open up and pay mines
result by their developement. The
increasing value and demand for
silver and the lower cLas5ed metals
as lead, zinc and copper, all of
which are contained in the ores of
this section is sufficient evidence
that the time is not distant when
the mining industries of this
country will make it profitable
for all other branches of industry
carried on here.

SAYS MEAT is roo HIGH.

Assistant Secretary Bingham Says
Public Indignation is Aroused.
Washington. Jan. 2.-'Public indig-
nation has been thoroughly aroused by
the unwarranted prices charged at this
time for meat" said Assistant Secre-
ltary of Agriculture Bingham yesterday.
When there was a scarcity of corn
and cattle ruled at high prices there
manded for meat, but now The price OF
cattle has been greatly reduced. and
there is no good reason why the price
of meat should not be correspondingly
reduced.
The small supply of cattle at Chi
cago last summer sent prices up until
they reached the highest figures of the
year-prices higher than lad befora
been reached in twenty years. Last
month the glut in the cattle market at
Chicago caused prices to recede to the
lowest recently reached. and cattle

brought SS25 to ss.75 at the highest
tine of the year.
I'm view of the fact that the reports
indicate a large supply of cattle OF
hand in Chicago and other markets
and that the wholesale price of cattle
has been reduced very greatly. and al
so that the large packers of Chicago
have reduced the price, It seems to me
a corresponding reduction should ba
shown in the retail prices.
II the people will awaken to the sit
uation and assert their rights now
that there is plenty of corn and no
valid excuse for fancy prices relief
will, believe, promptly follow"
