Every woman is ambitious to have her
house tidied up and in shIp-shape order,
not a nook or. corner can escape her

she has nearly broken her back. And
then this work comes right at the time
when we have the first few warm days,
when at any moment she is liable'to be

LUNG DISEASES OF MINES.

The African Review, in discussing miners phthisis in the Transvaal, says that the commissioners appointed to inquire into the subject found that the disease is largely confined to miners who have worked in metalliferous mines for some time, and is more es- pecially to be found among the rock drill miners of the Rand mines. In the Witwatersrand 1,212 miners were med fcally examined at the instance of the commissioners, and of these 1S7 were found to be affected by the disease. and a further SS were looked upon as sus pected cases. The average life-span Of miners afflicted with this terrible scourge is 35.5 years. The report as cribes the disease to the inhalation of dust, and states that it is more preva lent among rock drillers than any other class of workers. It is essential, that respirators should be worn by these men and that special attention be pai.l to the investigation of the character and harmful properties of the dust in the mines. mine ventilation, gases giv- en Off during blasting operations, mine sanitation, and the conditions under which the miners live. The disease is correctly nown as silicosiS, and is 9 condition of chronic fibrosis of the lung. The inhalation of fine angular dust in the mine produces enormous develop ment of the delicate fibrous tissue in the lungs. Thereupon bands and patches of solid useless material grad ualIy encroach on the normal breathina; apparatus and interfere seriously. and eventually fatally, with the respiratory functions.

THE ACCOUNTS
Passing of the Pioneer Miners of the
 Pacific Coast.

The passing of the Argonaut all over the west is faithfully depicted in the following paragraph from a Nevada paper whose correspondent notes the changes which are sweeping the old time camping grounds of the pioneer miner into oblivion: During our last trip to the Northern Hills we had occasion to observe a very notable change in one respect from former years. It was the lack of the old time proSpectorS who used to swarm the streets of Deadwood and gave to the main thorouShfares life and anima
 ton which unhappily seems almost to have ceased. Upon inquiry we are told that the reason for this was the fact that the most of them who made prospecting an avocation had sold ous their holdings to the large companies who had bought up the ground in such large tracts that the country was vir- tually captured and owned, and the prospectors' occupation was gone. The old grizzled fellows have betakeu themselves to newer fields, or have settled down in the cities or in their childhood homes to enjoy their money and wait for the grim messenger who will take them over the range. And many, alas, now many, nave aiready folded their tents and struck the trail which leads to the better land. The old town does not seem so gay as in the olden time; great brick blocks now mark the place where once stood the miners cabin, and today the streets echo to the tread of but few of those to the manor born, but strangers from every quarter of the globe. The city grows, and the country fiourishes, but most of those who laid the foundation of it's greatness, who blaZed the trails and made the roads, have passed or are rapidly passing away. We rejoice in the upbuilding and in the prosperity of the city. but we feel in the core of our spirit the truth. that we miss the handshake and the friendly greeting of the old-time boys"

THE cITY'S JURISDICTION
A Question Raised by the Late Grand
 Jury Report.

One of the recommendations of the grand jury in it's final report is fol- lowed by some comment and criticism. It was that part of the report suggest ing to the sheriff that he revoke the appointments of all the policemen ex- cept two to be named by himself and the marshal. the idea being to confina to the recorders court many oi the cases now brought before justices of the peace. laying greater expense upon the county.
 The same idea was brought out in another part of the report still more clearly by the recommendation that the justices do not handle such cases as may be brought before the recorder.
 It has been urged that the grand jury did not understand the limited Jurisdiction of the recorders court. however. widely it may have always been exercised. As matter of fact it cannot take cogniZance of common law offenseS for the reason that there is no provision by which a jury may be given a defendant on trial in that court for the violation of such offenses. They are. however. tried there every day but it has happened that whenever the defendant has been able to take an ap-
 
 charged. Though the city charter gives. or purports to give the recorder jurisdiction over nearly all possible crimes there are only three offenses which are not common law offenses. A vagrant. sleeping drunk and a, man charged with carrying concealed weap- ons may be tried without jury. It has been the practice in that court when a man has been arrested for any other crime, such as fighting, robbery, etc, to arraign him on charge of vagrancy and take evidence against him as to the offense which he really committed. It has not been long since man was on trial there for being mack. The evidence against him was conclusive but when it became evident that he had the money to take an appeal and intended to do so he was discharged.
 The city makes no money out of the trial of these cases. In very few of them the convicted person and his ar rest is generally equivalent to convic- tion, has no money and he becomes a burden on the city during his period of incarcera tion. It is argued that if the recommendation of the grand jury were carried out the burden on the city would be further increased by forcing upon it such cases as now come before the justices Of the peace. There is. however. one part of the report of the grand jury with which nobody finds any fault and that is that part which discountenances the prac- tice of some constables who lug into the justices courts, cases which ought not to be brought there or anywhere else

In the Telephone Exchange.

The average layman hazily pictures "central" that place heard so long but not seen, as a modern edition of Babel, delivered over to jarring voices and ringing bells and general pendemon iurn If he should visit a certain great exchange he would see forty girls at work at switchboard handling 1S,00O calls in a busy hour. Yet there is no noise louder than the hum of a swarm of bees. The wheels go round without friction; the operators are too busy for the bustling confusion of in competency; ingenious devices have brought the eye to the ears relief, re- placing bells by a system of lamp sig nals Every thing makes for efficiency. An operator makes on an average ten connections a minute, with automatic accuracy.

Mir. Roosevelt's Errors.

Two years ago this month Theodore Roosevelt took the oath of office as president of the United States. This, therefore, seems an opportune time to glance at what the presidents enemies have had to say about him. Have they dinted his shield? Have they pierced his armor? Are there any inera sa ble blots on the Roosevelt 'scutcheon? To those who say that the Argonaut. as republican paper, ought sedulously to refrain from publishing the objec- tions to the president. the reply that we try to print what is interesting. A column of eulogy would be deadly dull but a column of virulent abuse-well. we think it would be read.
 But what are the enormities with which the president has been charged ? Here is the list:
