MINING.
The Celebrated Mines Of MesO in the
Republic Of Colombia.

Few persons who are familiar with
emeralds in their cut and mounted
state have any idea of the difficulties
experienced by those who would trav-
erse that part of the Andes where
lie the celebrated mines Of Muzo.
The scenery, says Golden Days, is
of extraordinary beauty. but in two
days riding the traveller is obliged
to follow some of the most dangerous
mountain passes, and to make his
way over precipices where a single
false step would dash him to destruc-
ton.
The emerald mines lie in a basin
surrounded by high mountains in the
form of a circle. These mines are
the property Of the government Of
Colombia, which rents them to com
pany employing five or six overseers
and about 400 native workmen.
The means used for working them
are primitive, but they yield every
year a large amount Of precious
stones, which are Immediately
shipped to Europe. The band o rocl
containing the precious crystals il
more than a thousand feet high. Yery
few emeralds are found in the blacl
stone, but by cutting down the fac
Of the immense precipice veins o
white stone are uncovered, This i
known as c%alcite, a crystallized form
of carbonate Of lime. The emerald
are sometimes imbedded, and some
times found in hollow cavities, an,
the work of cutting down the sid
of the rock is done by the natives
mostly with a crowbar.
A piece Of rock a yard wide is Sc

Killed by His Own Invention

The famous French musical COM
poser, Jean Baptiste de Lully, got
tired Of marking timer the old-fash-
Toned manner Of beating the floor
with the sole Of his foot or clapping
his hands together. Instead, he in
troduced an enormous cudgel, six feet
long, and knocked it rhythmically
against the floor. One day, however,
ne knocked his own foot by accident,
and as he took no notice Of the wound
modification set in, and very soon
Lully was dead. But his invention
lived; one musical conductor after
the other caused the siz-footer ia
shrink in size, till the conductors
