There are few more primitive meth
ods Of transportation than those in use
today by natives Of northern India who
make their homes in the vicinity of the

breath of the natives themselves. Two

The Distance to Which 1T Extends
Above the G2avtiR's Surface.
One Of the many uncertain elements
in meteorolosy is the height to which
the earth's atmosphere extends. In
former days it was taught somewhat
dogmatically that a height exceeding
forty five miles was unthinkable for
gas constituted as the air is. This belief
was shaken by calculations respecting
the altitude of meteors, which became
incandescent by collision with our at
mospheric envelope and were certainly
rendered visible in this way at alti-
tudes of ever seventy miles. Professor
Newcomb deduced from the meteor
shower Of Nov. 13. 1867, that the air
must reach to 100 or 10 miles from the
earth's surface. DR.. T. ]. See of Wash

HAPPENINGS HERE IN OREGON
BIG PLANT AT COTTAGE GROVE.
To Work the Largest Cinnabar Deposit
In America.

A 300-ton quicksilver plant is going
up on the Black Butte mines near Cot
tage Grove, in which G.sB. Dennis. of
Spokane, is interested.
-Four years of uninterrupted devel
opment, said Mr.. Dennis has ex-
posed the most expansive imbedding
of cinnibar ore on the American con-
tinent if not in the world The work
represents an expenditure of nearly
$500,000.
THE Black Butte quicksilver mines
are located in Lane county, some IS
miles from Cottage Grove. During the
four years $4,000 feet of work has been
done, which includes aSyertical shaft
to the 1000-foot level. At each 100-foot
station drift running on the foot wall
has been driven either side of the shaft
the full length of the pay shoot, 227i
feet, and at each level the ledge has
been crosscut for it's full width of 80
feet.
The average of the ore is about 16
in quicksilver or $40 ton, and there
is now blocked out more than $4,000
900 in quicksilver. The present 40
ton smelling Or distilling plant is be-
ing enlarged to a 300-ton capacity and
the mine equipped with complete
electrical waterpower plant, furnish
ing power and light, which places the
property in position for working upon
a very large scale"

WANT NO CHANGE OF RULE.
Danish West Indies Board Finds People
Are Well Satisfied.

Are Well Satisfied.
Berlin, Sept. 2.-The National lei
tung says the Danish West Indian COM
mission is said to have reported as fol-
lows to Finance Minister Hage:
"The population of the islands is sat-
isfed to remain under Danish rule.
The whites hope from the newly awak-
ened interest of Denmark in the island
an improvement of economic conditions
and the fostering of civiIizlng influences.
The negroes, for the greater part, are
Indifferent, and know but little about
Denmark. The administration of the
islands was found to be impractical
and expensive and the hygienic condit-
ions entirely unsatisfactory.
1t is believed, says the National lie
tung, that the commission will report
in favor of reducing the military estab-
lishment on the islands and reorganiz-
ing the gendarmerie on modern lines.
The report will also suggest that more
attention be paid to public instruction,
the improvement of the hospitals, the
tobacco growing industry and the rails
ing of corn. The commission places
great weight on the necessity of COM
munication between the islands them
selves end with Denmark. The hope
is expressed that the exports Of the is
lands can be developed, and in this
connection hopes are based on the new
ly formed West Indian steamship and
land company.
