Eff ect of the Eight Hour Law

Whatever opinion one may hold re- garding the merit of the eight hour law, there can be no question but that the first effect of its operation is inju- rious to thd miners and mine owners alike, and the cause of dissatisfaction, also, among employees of mining com panies who are not benefcisries of the law. Many mines are closed in conse- quence of the law, and five thousand or more mine employees aae idle.
 No law limiting the hours of labor in and about mines can be enacted that would be altogether satisfactory and equitable, for the reason that the con dltions in different mines and districts are so dissimilar. As rule, eight hour shifts have prevailed in the large mines wherever the workings are wet, or hot, or the air bad, and for this reason th e larger camps with the exception of Clifton and Morenci) have not been disturbed by the new law.
 It is the small companies and indi- vidual owners of prospects who are most iniuriously affected by the arbi- trary limitation of the workday, and it lis for this reason that the development of our mineral resources will be very much retarded It is not the four or five big mining camps which count most for the continued growth and pros, perity of the mining industry in Arizona, but rather the thousands of mines in the prospect stage, many of which under favorable conditions will in few years become producers.
 An.ther reason urged against the eight-hour law is, as stated by the Mo. have County Miner, that employers are barred from entering into contract with their men to work longer than elght hours, even though better scale of wages is paid. In fact, it takes from the men the right to sell their labor to the highest bidder and no longer are they considered free moral agents in the world of the wage worker.

Bourke Cochran, who has beed spend ing the winter in Egypt, and who is conyalescing from serious illness, has got as far toward home as London, and is moved to remark that Eff the feeling for Clev9land's nomination is general, it is in itself an extraordinary tribute. !" That is 8 proposition which nobody would care to antagonize. Mir. Cleye- lands nomination is seriously discussed in two or three mugwump newspapers and in two or three of the promoting organs, but outside of that very small, but very respectable group, there seems to be no response to Cieveland's s candidacy.

The copper exports for the month of May, according to the figures compiled by the New York metal exchange, sho W a very heavy falling off as compared with recent months, amounting as they did to only 9lS2 tons, as against about II, GOO tons in April and l5, 493 tons in May, 1902. The showing for the month was the lightest on record thus far this year, and, indeed, the smallest in many months. While the causes for the fall. ing off are not perfectly clear, it is good opinion that it is due almost entirely to the recent remarkable increase in the domestic consumption of the metal, and it is likewise good opinion that the con tinued developing demand will still fur ther curtail the shipments during the month of June.

has put them in prison and will, in time, further punish the most of them with bani hment to Siberia or long terms in jail. The governor of Kisch- ineff has been degraded. The govern ment also has taken such energetic measures that recurrence of the mas sacre in any Russian town is declared to be impossible. All of which is in- teresting, but unfortunately neither the state department nor the American people will give full credence to the statements till they are substantiated by better evidence than the word of the Russl-n ambassador to the United States.

The Copper Share Market

Liquidation in the general market, which has gone on from week to week until ominous rumors have pervaded financial circles and talk of threaten ing panic have been heard on every hand, has caused free selling of copper mining stocks and prices haze declined without regard to intrinsic values, says Geo. l.. Walker in the Boston Con- mercial. The coppers are selling much lower on the average now than at the highest prices of last year, when the top price reached for the metal was 131 cents per pound, and when there was known to be considerably large sur plus of copper in the hands of produ- cers and selling agencies for which it was feared there would be no market at better than the cost price. The metal situation seems to be perfectly healthy now, prices are high enough to show most excellent profit to the pro- duciDg mines, and there is every req son for the belief that the future has nothing in store for the copper indus try but lasting prosperity. In the long run value asserts itself in the stock market, and the prosperity of the pro- ducing companies must sooner or later be reflected in the prices of copper mining shares.

The late Thos. B. Reed, when he took up the practice of law in New York, gave as his principal reason for abandoning politics that it was about time for him to earn something for himself and his family. How we'll he succeeded is shown by the fact that his gross personal estate foots mp S629, 533 according to the official appraisement. From this sum has to be deducted a total indebtedness of $l9S, 434. Mir. Reed left widow and daughter. The entire estate goes to the former.

AT Y. M c A.

A. good sized audience attended the mems mass meeting in Foy Auditorium yesterday afternoon to hear the special musical program prepared for the oc- casion. The soloist of the afternoon was Miss Graham, of the First M F. church choir. She was accompanied by MT. George T. Birks. Another fea- ture of the programme was an anthem sung by twelve of the members of the boys choir of Trinity Episcopal church.
 The speaker of the afternoon was Col onel -ames Fairman, A. M, the famous American artist and art lecturer. Ills subject was Jerusalem. Past, Present and Future" Colonel Fairnan proved to be very interesting speaker.
 He traced the early history of Jerusa- lem, it's gradual development and growth to the Jerusalem of to-day and the important points wherein the pres ent day Jerusalem differs from that of the time of Christ.
 On next Sunday afternoon the full choir of Trinity Episcopal church will give their full Easter programme at the afternoon meeting at 3:45. This will enable all who were unable to listen to them yesterday an opportunity to hear a magnificent programme.

] s persons started out over a stretch of territory having 8 circumference of something like forty miles. Beating the bushes then began, and the bark ing of dogs, excited yells Of the men, and the swish" of the rabbits as they sprang from the grassy hammocks formed a medley that was pleasing to the hunters ears.
 The constantly narrowing circle pre- vented the rabbits from escaping, with but few exceptions, and the days sport ended with three thousand rabbits and four coyotes yielding their lives to the clubs of the huntsmen, as they were driven into the corral from which there was no escape.
 5 While the killing of this great num- Der of rabbits may have afforded op- portunity for member of the humane society to moralize, in the light of the greater benefit to the mankind of the district, the inhuman features were naturally lost to sight.
 Itis quite likely that another drive of equal proportions will be organized to cover some other section of this por- tion of Idaho where the rabbits are pest. Market Lake {Mich) Letter to- the Nashville American.

WATER HYACINTHs. Illustrations of the Damage They Cause or, the St John River

Jls
 Once introduced into the main river, the hyacinth speedily became such a se- rious and increasing danger and ob- struction to navigation that the gene ral government was appealed to for aid An agent oe the war department was detailed to investigate the subject, but unfortunately arrived in Florida short ly after the freeze of February, 1895, that killed even the oldest orange trees to the ground. All tender vegetation was frozen, the water hyacinths along with the rest, consequently the agent reported that the freeze had effectually done the work asked of the govern ment. Of course, such a report ended the proposed investigation.
 But the hyacinths, like the orange trees were only frozen in their tops. The roots survived, also sheltered plants, and they speedily started out again on their mission of woe, with a persistent industry worthy of a better cause. From that time to the present their advance has been as wonderful as it is alarming. From Lake Harney on the upper St. John, to Green Cove

 tory, played by the Fichtl string quar- tette, was beautifully played. The masterly way in which Walter R. CowIes. the organist, handled the in strument evoked many words of praise from his auditors.
 The morning service was given over to the children of the Sunday school. A beautiful feature of the affair was a march by the little tots, each bearing a pot of lilies. Each child marched upon the platform and stood holding the flowers. About one hundred scholars participated in the ceremony.
 The pots were later deposited upon the platform and banked upon either side of the altar. After the service the lilies were sent to sick parishioners or to any others known to be i'll in the neighborhood of the church.
 A specially pretty feature of the ex- ercise was the solo singing by three of the smallest lots. Their sweet voices and baby lisps made a very pleasant impression upon all who heard them.
 At the evening service it was necessa- ry to deny admission to about five hundred people. It is estimated that nearly two thousand persons desired could secure the coveted seatings. All the smaller rooms near the main part of the church were utilized, and even the pastors study was used to increase the accommodations.

AN EASY SLIP OF THE TONGUE.

AN EASY SLIP OE THE .IONGUE
 A matron of Mount Pleasant, through the need of a lead pencil, furnished no end of embarrassment to herself and amusement to the passengers of aFour- teenth street car one morning last week She evidently had come down town, as her attire would indicate, for the ex- press purpose of shopping, and the con- spicuous bag which she carried was plainly intended to play an important part in the tour, expressing, as it were, the matrons independence of the pleas ure of the delivery wagons.
 As the car neared the business part of the town it became somewhat crowd ed, and the conductors request to 'sit closer, please" had rendered everyone's S discomfort plainly aparent. Particu- larly true was it to the tall, stately, well-groomed man who sat next to the resident of Mount Pleasant, all of which seemed to be her cue to begin fumbling around in the deep bag, and finally ex- tracing the inevitable shopping list which was carefully examined and again placed in the dark recesses of the bag
 Then the matron suddenly thought of something, so again the list saw the light of day. No, the article was not there, and from her attitude it must have been important and not to be for gotten, so the search for the lead pen ell began. during which time the dig nified gentleman. had very much more than his share of jolting, which oftener than once interrupted his review of the morning paper. However he was very good natured about it, and every time the litle woman said beg pardon his hand endeavored to reach his hat and his polite nod assured her that it was granted. But the lead pencil could not be found. Bag and pocketbook had been turned inside out, still it was mo- where to be seen. Withal she was a modest little woman and seemed to hesitate about asking the conductor or some one near her for pencil. But with quick resolve she gently touched her neighbours arm. Beg pardon" she said, may borrow your shoestrings? Of course, there was a general litter throughout the car.
 My shoestrings, madam?" said the aristocratic looking man.
 ''Oh, did I say shoestrings!" exclaim- ed the little woman. T meant your lead pencil: shoestrings Is what want to add to my shopping list"
 The little woman soon returned the pencil amid bushes and thanks, and settled back in her seat determined to remain quiet until her destination was reached Then the Willard was in sight and the stately gentleman prepar- ed to leave the car, the conductor in the meanwhile having entered it.
 Good morning. senator" said the con- ductor, as his passenger passed out.
 Everybody, of course, looked at the little woman from Mount Pleasant, who had heard, too-Washington Post.

A RABBIT DRIvE' IN MICHIGAN.

A RABBIT -DRlVEH' IN MlCE1lGAN.
 An Australian feature has just been reproduced in the country surrounding this town. A rabbit drive, equal in many respects to those which occur oc- casionally in the sheep districts of Aus tralia, has just been concluded with re- suits most gratifying to, the partici- pants and the sheep herders in this dis trict.
 Over three hundred persons were en- gagged in, the drive. The kill was slightly over three thousand rabbits and four coyotes. The plan followed furnished another unique feature of the remarkable event. ' I.
 For some months past the district has been infested by jack rabbits in enormous droves. So great has, been their number that they have been the bane of the sheep herder, and it was decided to induce the townsmen to turn out for a gigantic hunt.
 A wire corral of semi-eircular form and several hundred feet in length, was constructed, and the three hundred
