The GOLD LEAF.
THURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 1903.
A REVERSIBLE POEM.

Denver Times.
The following lines may be read
either up or down without altering
the sense:
The stars We're all alight,
The moon was overhead;
named her queen of night,
As she my footsteps led.
so wondrous fair was she,
| asked her to be mine,
As she glanced up at me
thrilled with love divine
Beside the meadow bars,
As she stood lingering there,
Her eyes were like the stars,
In radiance wondrous fair.
Your re all the world to me, ="
She murmured sweet and shy,
thrill OF ecstasy
felt at her reply.
Love led us all the way,
As we turned home again:
Our hearts were light and gay,
The world was blissful then.
Though shadows crossed the sky,
No gloom our hearts could know,
True bliss is ever nigh
When hearts are blended so.

Woman VS.. Man.
Fairbrother's Everything.

AS an all-round proposition a wo-
man can discount a man any day.
The man knows one thing, maybe.
and he sweats over that and tells
how hard he works-while a woman
from early morn till dewy eve, and if
the baby has the collie, until after
midnight, does more things than a
man could do. Her environment has
held her down-but she is learning
new tricks right along, and within
three hundred years, unless man pro-
crosses, he is going to be a back
number when compared to the brisk,
busy, little business woman of to-
day.

silver was not the only salvation OF
the ''poor people" Of that country

UTAH COPPER MINES.

There is considerable food for thought
in the following statement by a Boston
trim concerning the record being made
by the Utah Consolidated company IN
studying il the investor IN Utah cop
per stocks may figure it as modest
exhibit of what several other Utah com
panies are capable of doing. The United

In 1900 the Highland Boy mine pro
duced 100000 pounds of copper In 1901
it produced over 9.O0G0 600 pounds, and in
1902 it produced 11135,040 pounds The ore
treated in 1901 showed an average of 2-6S

mine could supply a much larger amount

LOWER MAMMOTH.
Control Is in Strong Hands, Which
Intend to Keep It.

From a statement which John Dern,
one of the directors Of the Lower Nam
moth, consented to make yesterday,
there appears to be little reason for the
shareholders il that company to become
alarmed over the prospects of trouble
with the Black Jack Mr.. Dern said the
recent buying of the stock resulted in
over two-thirds OF the capitalization pass
ing into the hands OF himself. T. II. Airs,
Simon Bamberger. W S Mccormick,

Chapman
Even if the latter had been selling, as
reported. il was certain that the control
of the property would not pass out Of
the hands of the men mentioned AT any
thing like present prices They had
bought it all the way up the line to the
top notch and they were not alarmed
over any claims that the Black Jack
might make TO the ore bodies Where
the big caves were encountered on the

had carried a portion of the vein over
the line, but that, he said. did not nee
essarily mean that the Lower Mammoth
