With the ore bodies now cut in tunnel No. 1, thirtv-nine and twenty three feet in width, respectively, with the possibilities vet untouched in La Pomosa, San F'raucisco and Lo G0lorqdo veins, the mind is staggered in an endeavor to cal- culate the

NEW ARMY RIFLE.
Successful Experiments Have Been Made
by Expert Board-Important Fea-
lures Recorded.


Bracket, Tex, Aug. 13-The
famous encampment of experts
here for the purpose of testing the
new Springfield rifle is breaking up
today.
The manager, Major w. c.
Brown, after spending a few days
leave of absence East, will go to
his work at Fort Assinoboin, Mont.
The four army expert riflemen, Ser
geant Apirian, Sergeant Pickett,
Sergeant Brown and Sergeant
Hawkins will go to their respective
posts in the various parts of the
United States.
The work has been steadily pro-
crossing for seven months and the
results obtained are very accurate
and satisfactory. The factory can
now proceed to manufacture sight
to place upon the barrels which
have already been turned out by
the Government factory.
Among the important results OBJ
tanned here may be mentioned:
l. The effect of wind in various
directions.
2. The natural drift of The rife
ball.
5. Elevation.
4. Recoil devices.
5. Range finders.
E. Various minor points.
The rifle has been thoroughly
tested and sighted up to 1000
yards, and when the army is sup
piled with these magnificent weap-
ons and soldiers thoroughly drilled
to shoot them, the enemy will feel
very uncomfortable at a range of
one mile 240 yards.

unacquainted with the question to
| discuss the matter with Minister
Leischmann is typical of Turkish
methods. The sultan's ignoring of
the proper channel, namely the
porte, is much commented upon as
evidently being an attempt to de-
Law a settlement. In the course of
the discussion the Turkish dele
gates attempted to impugn the
character of some schools and con-
tested that the Americans be grant
ed certain privileges given to sim
liar French institutions. Mr..
Leischmann, however, firmly re-
fused to consider for a moment the
suggestion of discrimination and
insisted on a full acceptance of
the American list Of about 500
schools, hospitals, charitable instl-
tutions and missionary dwellings
filed with the porte eight months
ago. The American pointed out
that the porte had ample time to
verify the list, but it had done
nothing, and Mr.. Leischmann
positively refused to listen to any
suggestion regarding the treatment
differing from that accorded the
schools under the protection OF
other powers. The delegations f.
nally left in order to report 10 the
sultan, promising a favorably reply.
The conference appears to have
settled one of the matters agreed
upon at the time of the Benuth in

There is such in abundance; there
IS a workman who swings his pick
at SO many strokes per minute,
leaving it to the boss to see he does
not do less and to his union that
he does not do more. There is
your artist who produces pictures
that inspire nobody and that moth
ing ever inspired; there IS your
half baked musician who can only
thrill ignorance, without the spunk
to strike a true spark from sound
metal; there is your school teacher
who daily drones over the lesson,
by rote or in routine. producing in
turn drones or ounces. All these

A good bad man is an example
