Poor Mans Chance.

1t is being said in many Eastern
journals and not a few Western ones
that the day Of the poor man in min
ing is gone by; that no one but big
corporation can succeed In mining any
more: that 1t takes big capital to dc
anything: that most Of the good min
ing propositions are controlled BY
trusts or millionaires and that there
is no longer opportunity for a man
with a little money. This is all mis-
take. The day of the poor" mining
man was never brighter nor greater
than right now.
The assertion that most OF the good
mines are owned by trusts or million.
aires is heard most often, but there is
least in that of any OF the pessimistic
utterances. One hears Of the big mil.
lionaire owners more than he does Of
the thousands of substantial com.
panies that go right on with little
notoriety, paying good wages and
monthly yielding dividends.
! Finally 1t may be justly said In an
swer to the assertion that opportunity
no longer exists for the man with a
little money. that never in the worlds
history we're there iuer opportunities
In mining for the man with a little
money than in the west half of Amer
lea today. Are you interested?
Send for our Booklet, 1t will cost
you nothing and will aid you in max.
Ing money.

FIorlda's Big Trees.

1t is difficult even to guess at the
age of the ancient live oaks, but some
of them must number centuries, and
the oldest and greatest of them all is
monarch Of the forest, with its outer
branches sweeping the ground in a
circle 120 feet across, with limbs as
great as ordinary trunks of trees, and
bearing garden Of aerial ferns and
air plants upon their bark This ven
cradle tree is supposed to be the larg.
est live oak in Florida. Enormous
grape vine trunks rise sinuously from
the ground and lose themselves amid
the quarter acre of foliage that
crowns this tree. The saplings that
once gave them support have disap.
peared long years ago, their only re-
cord being the angles and curves Of
grape vine stem to which they lent
their transient aid in climbing sky.

ed in the thicket, but he could see no
one about the house. Finally he slip
ped up close to the front door and lay
in hiding +. From within came the
sound of voices. Soon Jenkins APP
peared on the small front porch, and
with him came the little girl. She
climbed into his lap as he sat on the
step and called him papa"
Up to this time Tatton could not con-
ceive of Jenkins relation to Mrs. Haw-
kins and her daughter. With sudden
shock it now came to him. He remem-
bered having heard that Hawkins was
Mrs, Jenkins maiden name. For some
reason she had adopted it when her
husband went to Kentucky.
Tatton had just raised his Winchester
when the words of the little girl came
to his ears. At this moment, from
within doors. came the sound of Mrs.
Jenkins voice in song. Sweetly the
words throbbed in his ears. 1t was
the old song, dear to every loyal heart
of the old state, "She was bred in old
Kentucky" Tatton thought the gates
Of paradise had opened, and that this
was the fragment of an angel song.
Enraptured he listened until the last
word floated on the night air and died
away. He dropped the muzzle of his
gun, arose to his feet, sofetly slipped
out to the pine thicket, and thence
along the path to the Old Fort swamp.

Native Hawaiian nsleaats.

A tall, dark man, looking thought.
fully about him at the last White
House reception, attracted consider.
able attention. Hi colleagues in the
house recognized the native Hawaiian
delegate, Robert William Wilcox. His
father was a native Of Newport, R. l.,
but his mother was pure native of
the island of Maui. Mr.. Wilcox has
been a leader of his people and was
sentenced to death for his effort to re-
store Queen Lilluokalani. The United
States interviewed and the sentence
was committed to thirty-five years
imprisonment at hard labor and $1O,-
600 fine. This sentence was afterward
committed by President Dole.

Kings Not Crowned.

King Christian of Denmark, f9ther
of Queen Alexandria, has ruled almost
40 years-since 1863-and has yet to
be crowned. He was proclaimed king
from the palace of Christianborg.
The new king of Italy has not been
crowned, and If Victor Emmanuel fol-
lows the example of his father, Hum
bert l, he never will be. This Is the
more strange as the crown of Italy-the
Iron Crown of Lombardy--is the most
ancient and historic crown in the
world. The iron part of it, which is
hidden almost completely in gold and
jewels, is said to have been made of
nails from the cross on which the
Savior was crucified, and the gold was
laid on for the protection of the pre-
cious metal. In its present shape the
crown dates from 1896. 1t was one of
the most valued possessions of the EN-
peror Constantine. 1t crowned the
Lombard kings. The last two occa-
sions on which 1t was used for corona
ton purposes was in 1906, when Napol-
con, who had carried it off to Paris,
made the pope crown him with it in
the Cathedral of Notre Dame in 1888,
when Ferdinand I of Austria was
crowned with it at Milan. Its last pub
lie appearance was on the bier of the
assassinated Humbert, two years ago.
1t is said that threats of force had to
be made to the priests who have in
charge the Iron Crown before they
would allow 1t to be placed on the coin.
Significantly enough, the Sultan Of
Turkey prefers to be invested with q
sword instead of a crown upon his ac-
cesslon.-St. Louis Republic.

Important to Know.

On a recent visit of inspection a
government inspector Of schools, while
In the town Of P asked a number
of questions of the pupils about the
little things Of the world around them
How many seed compartments are
there in the apple?" he asked, and
ION which Jaw has the COW her
teeth?" with several similar questions
to which the pupils could, it need
hardly be said, make no reply. The
next day one Of the teachers was
amused to overhear the following con,
versation among the pupils in the
playground. A little girl had got some
of her companions around her, and
said gravely: mo, children, let us
play at school inspection, | am the
inspector. You've got to know more
about common things; II you don't you
will ali grow up to be stupid. Now,
tell me-" she said, looking sternly at
a playmate, "how many feathers has a
