|. c. B. A. TO
ASSEMBLE.


Much interest is being manifested
by members of the Lauies' Gath oIic
Benevolent Association in the coming
national contention of that body, to
be held in st. Paul, Mimi, next
month. About 700 delegates, repre-.
s%enting moro than 80, 900 members,
will gather OF that occasion and act
upon several important questions.
Probably the most interest will
centre in tho election of officers. With
the announcements made at the last
convention, held in Detroit, BY
Supreme President Mrs. e. b. Mago-
wan, of Buffalo, that size would not
again run for any office in the asso-
citation, there is assurance that there
will be no end of names presented for
Endorsement rs candidates for her
place. Mrs. Mcgowan has been the
president since the organization be-
gan. She has had opposition upon
several occasions, but her popularity
each time won for her q majority
vote.
1t is understood that in the west
there is q candidate upon whom it is
expected the honor of president will
tall. but there is evidence of the same
confidence in the east. The most
favorably spoken of candidate in this
section, it is said, is Mrs. Nary e.
Costello, of BROOKLYN, who flor a
number of years has peer the supreme
treasurer. She is considered well
fitted for the office because of her
wide experience in fraternal insur-
ance societies. -
At n meeting Frida y night, 1n6the
knights OF Columbus Hall, in Brook.
Ign, at which all tho national dele,
gates of that city were present, q re-
solution was passed indorslng the
name of Mrs. Costelloe, and she
placed herself on record as being a
candidate for the office by saying she
would accept the nomination.. At the
same meeting the delegates Endorsed
the name Of Mrs. Maria Quinn, of
Newark, as a candidate for first vice
president, She is at present second
vice president. Mrs. Quinn, it twas
expected, wouldsbe in the race for the
presidency. She was the choice of
even some of the Western States.
There was every influence brought to
bear upon her in the east, but she de-
clined.
While no official action has been
taken by the New Jersey Advisory
Senate as to whom it shall indorse for
the different offices to be filled, there
is. n likelihood that the names of

In Florence, lately, one of several
Italian ladies who were entertaining
Mark Twain, asked what was the Amer
lean national game. Poker" he re-
sponded. When she laughingly pro-
tested that he was facetious, he gravely
reiterated his statement, and added:
Madam, to the game of poker the Amer
lean people owe the most valuable les

even after you have lost your last

Old Mines WIN Resume.

With the completion of the Salt
Lake railroad, it is likely that the
Osborn mines, at Resting Springs, in
San Bernardino county, California,
will start up. An exchange, IN speak
ing of these properties, says: These
mines were worked nearly forty years
ago. A large amount of ore was
shipped across the desert to San
Pedro, Cal, via Los Angeles, and
thence shipped to San Francisco for
treatment. A smelter was built al
the mines, but owing to excessive
cost of treatment and the low price
of silver it was closed down, and the
mines have since remained idle. Al
one time 400 men were employed II
the camp.

The increasing confidence in the

ably manifested in the advance IN
improved real estate prices. A GER
tain property on South G street
offered for sale a few months ago for
less than $1,000 cannot be bought now
for $4,000, an advance of 200 per
cent in value. The wooden structures
that have been sold in the past for
nominal prices and the material
shipped to Reno and other points for
rebuilding, we're a good radiance, as

Mineral in Grand Canyon.

Replying to a query from n OF It's
constant readers" the Mining and
Scientific Press of San Francisco
says: No portion of the Grand canyon
of the Colorado river is in the state
of Colorado. The Colorado river is
formed by the union of the Grand and
Green rivers. The confluence OF
these streams is in Utah, at the
southernmost point of Grand county.
The Grand canyon begins below the
junction of the Rio San Juan with the
Colorado. 1t is PIT miles long and
from 5000 to 5000 feet deep. There
are mineral deposits in the limestone'
and quantities. of the Cambrian age ii
the lower portion of the gorge
These ores are mostly lead, with sill
yer. Gold in the older crystallin,
rocks is also reported, but none o
these deposits are being worke'
further than the assessment wor.
necessary to hold them. This is du
to their inaccessibility and it wi
probably be a long time before thei
condition will be improved.
