II LONDON TAPsTER.

~u
Hard Luck Stories That Take the
Place of Open Begging.
The plain and open tapster who &C
costs you in the street purely to beg
may generally be known by an amaz-
ing overpoliteness in opening the con-
%versation. He is the only person I
know who begs pardon for taking the
liberty Of speaking to you, and by this
sign you shall know him. They all be-
gin by begging pardon for taking this
not so very rare liberty. but only the;
buffers go on straightway to tap. The
proficient tapsters approach the tap
sideways, so to speak. Something Hike
this, with a quick touch Of the hat
brim:
BEG pardon, sir, I'm sure / 'umbly
beg your pardon for takin' the great
liberty Of speakin' to you in q public
thoroughfare like this, which I am
quite aware it is a great liberty, sir,
though trustin' you will kindly pardon
the great liberty of a pore, 'ardworkin'
man, sir, in takin' the great liberty of
askin' If this street is the 'Aymarket,
sirT' Tor the way to the Strand or the
day of the month, OF something.)
You answer the question, but you
don't stop the stream Of apologetics.;
"Thank you, kindly, SIR" pursues the
tapster, pouring out the words, thank
you kindly, sir, If you'll 70 far pardon
the liberty Of a pore, 'ardworkin' man,
sir, in askin' the question, which un-
fortunately I was forced to take the
great liberty, sir, through bein' out o.
work eighteen months an nothink to
eat since last Toosday fortnight, sir.
upon my word Of honor, which nothink
but the cries for bread of fourteen
young children in arms would prevail.
on me, sir-so igstreme kind as you've
bin to me, sir, which I shall never for
get-to take the very great liberty, sir,
In a public tho%roughfare, of askin''
which Is the nearest work'ouse?"
II once more you give him informa-
don instead Of coppers, you only pro-
woke another speech of the same sort,
for he car go on like that for a deal
longer than you want to listen It is
only in the extreme that he will direct
~ ask for money, though I fancy that
1t is merely caution that marks his
guarded way, as they say in the lyric;
TOR If accused Of begging by some
watchful policeman he can always
plead that he was only asking a harm
less question. And the questions are
endless in variety. I give my solemn
word that I was once buttonholed by
one Of these seedy tapsters with the
apologize request that 1 would tell
him the number of stars on the ma
tonal flag of the United States! This
1s a simple fact.-Leonard Larkin in
the Strand.

The custom Of giving engagement
rings ranks back to long before the
Christian era. With the ancient Ngyp-
dans engagement rings were always
Of iron, to indicate the mutual sacrt-

o betrothal rings was a loadstone,
which symbolized the attractive force
which drew a maiden from her own
family circle into that OF her husband.

and placed in the market for two
mills per pound while the CONNER
clal value of the product is s cents
per pound. 1t was stated that 45
pounds of acid was manufactured in
three hours run with six horse
power and that when arrangements
are completed the cost of manufac-
ture will be greatly reduced. The
process is largely by electricity and
is identical with the experiments
that are being made in Germany and
much the same as the methods en-
ployed at the factories at Niagara
Falls. 1t is of great interest to min
ing men at this time and will, If sat-
isfactory results can be obtained,
allow the handling of low value base
ore. that now cannot be mined at q
profit. The mining world will watch
with much interest the results of
the experiments made by the Rankin
company.
The Maceys, at the Iron Springs
mine on Rapid River, have about so
men at work. They are putting in
a large amount of machinery, among
other things being a hoist for going
600 feet deep. They have tunnel
in 450 feet on one of their proper
ties. The company believe they
have big thing there, and are do.
ing lot of work in support of this
belief.

property, the Salzer- Ford company
as it Is known. The rain was pour

about 80 men at work on their big
cyanide plant.

The Weiser signal. [volume] (Weiser, Idaho) 1890-1904, 1903-09-16

Mr.. j H. Baron, mining expert
of wide experience, representing the
Mining Reporter of Denver, Colo, has
been making tour of the Thunder
Mountain, Rapid River and Buffalo
Hump, districts. Mr.. Baron has
been in the state since July first,
and has collected much valuable
data concerning the mines of Idaho,
which will appear in his paper at a
near date.
In speaking Of the Thunder Noun
tain, and Buffalo Hump districts,
MIR. Baron says oThis is my first
visit into the Thunder mountain and
Hump districts and | can say that |
am much pleased with what | have
seen. Idaho today is undoubtedly
on the verge of great mining de-
velopment such as the state has
never before experienced This is
partially due to the freedom from
the labor troubles that are agitating
the mining districs of other states,
and the fact that to large extent
the paper miners and the fake pro-
moters have been discouraged from
operating in your state. Consider.
ing the number of producing mines
in the state, Idaho is probably re-
ceiving more attention from the
mining men of the east than any
other state in the union, the only
possible exceptions being New Mexi
co and Arizona. The old camps arr
making some remarkable showing
and the opening of the properties il
the districts l have just visited viii
probably create wide interest a.
soon as the wealth of the new mine
becomes known.
Speaking of the Rapid River dis
trict he says: 81 also visited tn
works of the Rankin General Milling
: and Mining company, located o
Rapid river, about 16 miles abov
Pollock. 1t is here that the success
f ful experiments were made in mani

uney worked out the details. This
spring he determined to give the
a practical test. So he
went to Bossburg, and csmped with
MS wife on the banks of the Colum-
bla river tor three months, only re-
Gently returning to Phonelx. While
tnere ne saw several points on which
ne could improve and did so, finally
being satisfied that he had the prob
lem successfully solved. The diff.
Guilty heretofore with devices for
that purpose has been that the sand
was solid mass in the contrivance
or machine, and thus permits the
gold to escape over its surface. The
Bradish machine completely over
comes this by simple mechanical
principle in which, of course, quick
silver is also used to save the gold
itself. A patent has been applied
for, and the rights will be protected
whenever the patent can be obtained
1t is the intention of Messrs Bradish
and McHale to leave one of the ma
chimes on exhibition at the worlds
fair in st. Louis next year, and they
are now making arrangements fol
that purpose. The New Zealand

Idaho Inter- Mountain Fair.

A great deal of interest is being
taken in the Inter- Mountain State
Fair to be held at Boise, October
18th to 18th.
Already number of fast horses
have been entered and entries are
coming in every day. Thomas
Brents, of Walla Walla, G. H. Thomp-
son and w. S Jones, of Salt Lake,
and +. N. Wilson of the same place,
and f. T. Hoffman of Boise, have
entered some of their best horses
for the pacing and trotting purses.
When it is known that the manage
ment have put up ten thousand
dollars in purses for the various
forms of racing, an idea may be had
of the interest that will develop
among racing men of the northwest.
Notwithstanding the number of stalls
the association has prepared for the
use of horsemen, they are being
taken so fast that additional stalls
may have to be erected to accommo
date the increasing demand.
