Hat Etiquette.

New York Press
 Tipping the hat Is a rare thing among men when there are no women around. A few fine old fellows cherish the habit of tipping to each other and to strangers when introduced, but ordinarily the hand never touches the brim. In business of Aces there Is no sort of etiquette. Men in the sweep and rush of business have no time to give thought to hats. But certain decencies should prevail. On entering a private office look at the head of the Oc- cupant. If he has his hat on, keep yours on; if his hat is off. remove yours. The removal of your hat is compliment and a courtesy. and does not indicate that you are inferior or subservient. Henry H. Rogers one of he most active of men. being a Standard Oiler, always takes off his hat when he enters business office.

Important to Know.

In case where veins cross, each
owned by separate locators, the senior
locator takes not only the vein upon
which he has made his location, but also
all other lodes or veins found within his
surface boundaries. including the cross
lode subsequently, located by another.
a junior cross-lode locator has no right
TO any ore found upon the cross vein
within the boundaries Of senior claim
The owner OF junior tunnel site can
not by means OF cross.cut tunnel pene-
trate within the bounding planes OF a
'senior location for any purpose. Where
two lodes cross in dip, the one in the in
tersection OF the veins belongs to the
senior locator, and the junior has right
OF way through the vein to the con-
tInuation Of his own vein beyond. Min.

Success IS in Mining.

The secret OF success ia mining lies
for the most part in the makeup of the
miner. Given good prospect and ordi-
nary facilities for developing claim, the
chief requisite to success is "sticktoitive
ness. or in other words, infinite patience,
faith and perseverance. Prospectors
who hang around camps bemoaning
their fate because Some eastern tender
foot fails to materialize with long
pocketbook. ready and eager to put his
cash into the first 10.foot hole in the
ground offered him, are failures ninety
nine times out OF hundred while the
man OF faith, grit. and willingness to
carefully prospect and develop his prop.
erty before offering it for sale is winner
an equal number Of times. What the
west needs most OF all is Drawn and
muscle, backed by indomitable persever-
ance. With these attributes, failure is
an unknown quality in the miners YER

A Night by the Sea.


In the balmy month Of juno;
On the cliffs of the great St. George
l oft went forth alone.
In the calm and quiet moonlight
To view the sea at night
And; the ships a passing
A thrilling, inspiring sight,
The cattle were grazing noiseless.
Near the cliff, huge. giant high;
From the level of the water,
Dave Jones holds on his thigh.
As it happens once to many,
So it happened once to me;
On basIny, moonlight June.
Strange things TO hear and see.
Such atsight saw Victor Hugo.
When the angels were on leave;
Acting Guardians Ger our lonesom's
Calming; our bosom's heave.
Oh hatnight, sweet night OF nights;
Angels we're out, but not alone.
Down o. tie besch were merlraids.
And fsnries on the green.
Soon the fairies left the green
And were down npon the sand.
Embracing mermaids and fairies all
And dancing hand in hand.
/ quietly stole down little path
That led to the beach below,
And hid in u crevice of the rock,
To hear and see and know.
They played and kissed and laughed.
And gave some pretty toasts;
They were as happy as the doves,
When they mate and sweetly COO.
Then they sang little song
OF the sea and land and air;
Our joys, are full the chorus rang,
Human joys can neer compare.
Men have grown so discontended,
With their tolls and hours of ease;
Though they pride themselves as masters
OF the land and air and seas.
They have grown so full of envy
But. they cali it pure ambition;
Yes they say, they are more than men:
They are Gods. yes Gods Divine.
am happy said the mermaid
In my sphere among the crystals;
Though, I'm green I'm only fish
And I'm happy. I'm not humane.
I'm happy said the fairy.
Here and there and everywhere;
i want no home nor station;
I'd rather be dew drop than human.
What has made mon so important
Der the fish and bird and beast?
Can creation solve the problem
Oft',eir queer imagination?
Angels aspiring to be Gods.
Found themselves serious loss;
And 80 Il comes to all the world
In their reaching to be boss.
Then they parted full Of CLEO
The fairies to their anywhere,
And the mermaids to the sea;
The queen of crystals everywhere.
left the crevice of the rock.
1t was a time. not to forget;
The birds were singing with the day
Joining the chorus Of the sea.
Happy in creations bliss.
Happy on the land or seas,
Happy II it storm or calm,
Sweet content, with no alarm.
Happy though the clouds grow dark
Hiding stars and moons sweet calm;
Happy though the billows rage.
Enjoying full the peace OF ago.
