THE SINISTER.

She's walking in her garden, with quiet
 step and slow Ann Smith. who lost her lover now
 thirty years ago. Between the clean, white pallings the
 village people view Her moving midst the tulips, all
 drowsy with the dew The breezes breathe of springtime of
 sPringtirae Hits the Till. There's springtime in the robins en-
 raptured vesper tril; There's springtime in the blossoms she
 brushes to and fro; And ill her heart the springtine of
 thirty years ago. The lane is lying wonder. wrapped deep
 in fragant gloom, By bursting hawthoru bordeyed, and
 cherr- trees in bloom. The mouths athwart it flutter on err
 ant, ghcstly wing. Adown it's dusky vista the crickets
 bravely sing. The crescent moon is shedding tender
 light above The air is soft and dreamy, and quiver-
 ing with love. The world is full of longing. of whis-

 years ago. ' Twas just in such a springtime. twas

HIS THREE SELVES.

Most remarkable psychological phea- omena have been observed in the case of the Rev. Thomas Hanna of Jenkinstown, Pa, who has been under treatment in New York after being thrown on his head from his trap.
 When he regained consciousness after the accident his mind was that of a child with strcng receptivity. On discovering that he could move his limbs in imitation of his medical at tendant he crowed with joy like a baby and lashed out vigorously, cry ing with annoyance when his move ments were restrained.
 He could not feed himself, get upon his feet CT walk. After he had learned to stand he had to be taught to move forward, which he attempted to do by making high steps as if he did nor know where the floor was. Not for several weeks did he learn first to talk and then 10 read and write. At this stage Dr. Siddis, a noted spe-
 Cialist, took charge of him and his ef- forts to make MT. Hanna remember this former life were gradually attend ed with success. First tho patient be-
 gan to dream of his past and on
 aWakinS would mention names and places without knowing their signifi- canoe.
 Finally he led q boy life and an adult life side by side, in the latter scholar and in the former a child, but in neither state did he remember his parallel existence and if he went to sleep in one condition he invariably ] woke up in the other.
 By progressively reducing the hours , of sleep, however, the specialist at length succeeded in narrowing the gulf
 of transition separating the two phases of consciousness until Mir Hanna ! would pass from one to the other while awake.
 | At this stage a most extraordinary 1 development tock place. A third per ! sonality, which MT. Hanna believes tC | have been his "soul," gradually estab- i lished itself. In this third state Inc was conscious Of the two others. and i for long time the new "soul'' strug- | gled for mastery, finally absorbing the ! other states of consciousness. Ther | the mind and memory of MT. Hanna returned and his cure is now com i plete.
 ''The agony I suffered when I real
 ized my conditiou.' says the victim oi
 this strange experience. "was beyond
 all words to express. I was one oi [ two personalities. but could not make i up my mind which one

MILLION DOLLAR FEES.

The successful modern lawyer is tie most highly paid brain worker in the world. There was a time when the lawyer sought to charge each paIticu- lar client all that he thought the client would pay. The lawyer of today ans to charge so that his account will ap- pear on the profit side of his clients ledger.
 William Nelson Cromwell is to re- ceive $2,OO0,OO0 for selling the rights of the Panama Canal company to the United States. But for Mr. CroTnwelIs extraordinary patience and skill the isthmian canal might have been built through Nicaragua. and the Panama Canal company would have remained in a defunct condition.
 William Ds Guthrie received SI. .OGO. .COl for his victory for the widow in break irg the will of Henry B. Plant As a result Mrs. Plant obtained S7,COO.GOO O. $S,OO0000. But for Mir Guthrie her share of the estate would have been ex- ceedingly small. James B. Dill is cred ited with having been paid S1 ,OO9.OOO for settling the famous dispute betwe CT Andrew Carnegie and Henry Prick 4 legal fight would probably have result ed disastrously to every one concerned. It is not known how much Francis LEnde Stetson is paid as the general counsel of J. Pierpont Morgan, though IL Is estimated in Wall street that NJ Morgan gives him annually a retainer of s50000 merely for first call on MT Stetson's time. all actual services be -ng paid for in addition
 The supply of lawyers does not exec "a ;he demand. In 1890 there were S9.CGU lawyers in the United States, or enc tD every 69S of the population. According to the census of 1900 the total number was l1i,703, or one to evry 659 Of the population. There is and will Ee fer long time plenty of work for the good lawyer to do.--The Worlds Work.

AN AesENT-MINDEO HIsToRl2N.

Many anecdotes are told concerning the late Theodore Mommsen. the great
 RFman historian. They refer chiefly to his absentmindedness, which was one of this learned mans most con spicucus failings. On one occasion the professor was engaged in his study in-profcund researches and failed to mo- tice the presence of his servant, who announced luncheon was ready. The servant asked If he might bring it to the professor, and, receiving no reply. laid the table near the writing desk. Returning ten minutes later with some fish, the dishonest meniaI found the soup untouched. Thinking it too good to spoil, he sat down and finished the soup and fish unobserved of the pro- lessor The remaining courses suffer ed similar fate. About an hour lated Mommsen looked up from his work, and, feeling a cavum proceeded 10 the kitchen and asked why luncheon had not been served. But the profess sor has had his luncheon an hour ago!' expostulated the servant. Dear mel said the historian of Rome; "how could l be so forgetful?" and peace fully returned to his study.

THE SAGINAW.

The new three accompaniment vertical shaft on the Saginaw property at Bis bee had attained 9 depth Of 65 feet on June lst, and they have in operation p horse power hoist capable of sink ing the shaft to 8 depth of 500 feet.
 Tn the old workings on the 3CO foot lerPl the ore bearing material, locally termed ledge matter, is opened up for a length of over loo feet and a width of over SO feet and the length and width have not yet been determined.
 They are working three shifts Of five men each in the new shaft and are sinking at the rate Of = feet per month. The showing is very good or present in the old workings and they expect when the new shaft reaches a depth of from 800 to sec, to demonstrate that they have mine Review.

THE OLD HOMES CALL.

Come back My little lads, come back My little maids, with starched frocks; My lads, my maids, come back The poplar trees are black Against the keen, lone, throbbing sky: The tang of the old box Fills the clear dusk from wall 10 wal, And the dews fall. Come back. watch, I cry; Leave the rude wharf, the mart; Come back Elise shall break my heart. Am I forgot; My days as they were not ?- The warm, sweet, crConing tunes: The Sunday afternoons, Wrought but for you: The larSspurs growing tall, You wreathed in pink and blue, Within your prayer-books small; The cupboards carved both in and out With curious. prickly vine, And smelling far and fine: The pictures in a row Of folks you did not know: The toys, the games. the shlill, gay
 rGut;
  A charmed but homely red, Went Pickering from shed to shei; The fagots crumbling, spicy. good, Brought in from the great wood; The dark that held you all about The wind that would not go?- Come back, my women and my men, And take them all again. Come back! Come up the still, accustomed, wi tful
 lands The poplar-hauntod lands. You need not call, For I shall know, And light the candles tall, Set wine and loaf arrow. Come back Unlatch the door And fall upon my heart once more. For shall comfort you, oh, lad: Oh daughter shall make you whol y
 glad! 1 The wreck. the wrong, The unavailing throng, The sting, the smart, Shall be as they were rot, Forgot. forgot! Come back And fall upon my heart!
 -Lizette Woodworth Reese, in the June Atlantic.

one of the queerest of all these many strange conveyances. A rolling tobac- co hogshead with large rod in the center, drawn by a yoke Of oxen, shows how tobacco was hauled from the Vir- ginia plantation to the market in the early colonial days. Next to this is q primitive New Mexican ox-cart with spokeless wheels, attached to a yoke of patient bullocks, one of the crudest vehicles in the entire lot
 An Italian racing chariot in use be- fore the Christian era is one of the most interesting and rare of these queer articles Being so unlike any thing in use in modern ages, it is a cur iosity that attracts much attention. An odd and unique cariole from Nor way is next in line, and then comes a Chinese hand cart, such as has been in general use for ages.
 A Sicilian donkey cart for holiday use is an interesting sight with its gaudy colors and its gorgeous decora- tions. Itis drawn by a donkey, which is also rigged out in holiday attore. A Cuban Volante, drawn by two horses, tandem, stands near as if awaiting the arrival of some dark-eyed senorita. A docile little donkey from Jerusalem stands almost hidden beneath his mas sive pack-saddle.
 An Arab holiday wagon from Con stantinople, Turkey, drawn by two oxen, is one of the fanciest rigs in the exhibit. A Jerusalem mule litter, car ried by two mules fore and aft, is a peculiar little pagoda-like arrange Inent for carrying passengers of prom thence.
 Just beyond this queer collection from distant countries are the great railway trains of today, the speedy automobile and other modern methods of conveyance, making the contrast all the more noticeable and showing the wonderful improvements in transpot- tation methods

WOULD YOU LIVE TO BE 100?
Here Are the Rules French Scientist
 Prescribes Therefor.

Prescribes Therefor.
 To live one hundred years French physician has laid down the following rules for human beings to observe
 :. Breathe fresh air day and night
 :. Take outdoor exercise each day either by working or walking.
 8. Eat and drink moderately and simply. Choose water, milk and fruit. rather than alcohol.
 1. Fortify yourself by wishing 2aily in cold water and by taking d h0l hath once week.
 5. Do not wear clothes which are either too heavy or too light.
 6. Live in a house that is spacious and dry.
 :. Work regularly.
 8. After work do not seek reposc in exciting distractions. The hours Of pleasure belong to the family; the night is for sleep.
 9. Ennoble your life by good a-- ItiOns.
 70 those who are desro-.s of living one hundred years we can see nothing objectionable in the above suggestions. So far as they apply to loozI iifs. we pse- sume none of our citizens could be worse off for following them. Tn fact. our present daily life i= modelled much after the same lines w" are not all fortunate enough 70 have roof gardens for sleeping apart iIuents. but the tendency to seek pure air is in evidence among the lowlicst. IT we cant get abundant exercise. in walking, we get about as much in bal ancing ourselves in overcrowded trains and trolley cars. and we eat moderately enough because. with the tendency to- ward increased prices for food. there | is no other alternative. Public and private baths are iucreas- ling everywhere at an UT -Si-ai ratio. auI ithe tendency of the age. even among i the fair sex, is to combine comfort with 1 fashion in such way that beauty O.. the mode shall not be the price "f | physical torture. The French physicians doctrine is simply that of nationality, and evolU- tion seems to be following exactly on that theory.-New York Evening Telegl am.

THE MINING INDUSTRY
zWzzznzRzzzzUnz.,uu

Another place in the mine which is also being worked with great energy IS shatt which is being sunk from the tunnel near the point of union of the Grey Eagle and Cleveland claims, the shaft being located on the Gray Eagle claim. There are two parallel Iedges on the claim, and this shaft is belns sunk on an incline from the tun- nel there between these and the ground will be cross-cut from it to each of the ledges. The shaft is now down 225 feet. One cross cut has been run to the two ledges, and good ore found in both of them. But while good ore is expected and wanted the shaft is not being sunk for ore alone. but 1t is hoped that at a depth of 800 feet per- manent water and an abundant sup ply of it will be obtained, by cross cutting from the shaft to each Of these lodges.
 At present about fifty-fve tons of ore per day are treated in the mill. The higher grade and the lower grade ores are mixed so that the ore as it is mill ed will average about S20 per ton.
 About half ,of this value is saved on the plates, the other half being saved in concentrates. From May 22 to the evening of May S1, four cars of con- centrates were shipped. this being about the regular average of the pro duct of the mill.
 There is enough ore blocked out in the mine to keep the entire twenty stamps running for about two years. although but very little development work has been cone in the Gro Belle since its purchase by the Tiger com pany.

A REVIVAL OF sHAWLs.
Pretty Wraps from thc Four Corner
 or tEo Glohe

Pretty Wraps from thc Four Corners
 CT tHc Glohe.
 Fashion has decreed that. among other styles rejuvelated from our Srandmothers. the shawl must be wo il. It is an Undeniable fact that they are most useful for evening wear although it is not easy to wear them gracefully. Many new varieties have, of cou se. come to the fore. but even the once popular India shawl is perm.ss ible. al- though these bring only one-tenth their former value.
 Fer many years the opera cloak has threatened to entirely supersede the shawl but for cool evenings at the shore the shawl is paramount. In England they are being used quite oX- tensively for the opera and many beau tiful eastern makes are seen. The newest of these comes from Siberia and is knitted by hand from the purest woo. to be obtained. The Siberian wo- men hold the secret of the stitch. anl no foreigner has succeeded in di=cov- cring it, but the shawls are of such fine workmanship that one, say three yards square, may be relied into Q ball small enough to be placed in a tea
 
 spite of their apparent himsine-s, ana they sell for from $50 to $50, according to their texture and size.
 Chinese wool shawIs are even Of a finer weave than the Siberian: one cf these. about two yards wide. may be passed through a finger ring. The skill required in making these shawls is something marvellous. The stitcEe are most intricate and the nat ent 2 necessary to accomplish such a piece of york must be remarkable.
 These sk5v,ls are most durab'e and will really wear indefinitely. One ad- vantage in thc'h is that they may be washed at home without difficulty. To do this. dissolve a pound of the D st yellow soap in a quart Of water to make q jelly. Take @ heaping tablespoonful nf this soap Jelly and dissolve in warm water. Leave tho shawl in this abCu five minutes, then, after sousnE Il in water thoroughly and. squeezing it ir the hands. put it iu a second lot of soap jelly and water. After squeezil lg t the second time, IinsC in two lots oi clca- water. then squeezing as dry as possible. put the shawl in heaT. or a clean sheet upon the floor. Turn sev- eral times and wher 1t is abou. hal dry, pull it out carefully to the proper size and pin it flat on the sheet mt i it dries thoroughly. The shawl theT looks like new.
 So great has the fad for rare shawl: l become that many people buy ;hei | shawls in Europe, but send them tC ! Chira to bc embroidered in r3re d. sigrs.
