HUCKLEBERRY REEVES MINE.
He Discovered it, His Wife and
 Daughter Helped Develop it.

Laughter L16iDSQ 1GN6tUll It, From abject poverty to riches in practically day is an experience vouchsafed to few mortals; but man has been in Los Angeles several days who has enjoyed this sensation. c. H. Reeves of Burke, Idaho, is the Fortunate individual who can now draw a check written in six figures. whereas two short years ago he was without a dollar.
 "Huckleberry'' Reeves, as he is fa- miliarly known throughout Idaho, is q character in mining history. His money comes from the Hercules mines 1 in such Q steady stream that he has never found time to spend it, and that l is why he came to Los Angeles a, few l days ago with his wife and daughter, just to see something of the coun- try"
 Reeves pseudonym was not applied to him because he resembled Mark Twains famous character of the Mis- sisippi river, but because the little blueberries which grow so plentifully on the slopes of Idahos mountains en- abled him to make his fortune out of the Hercules.
 For many weary years had followed
 the life of a prospector, always hope ful of striking it rich some day and patiently enduring the hard knocks

Of Course, all loca- tions of a prospector are mines" to 1 begin with, in their imagination, but | this one looked especially attractive. | But powder cost money and a prospec- tor had to be fed and clothed, and here is where the wife and daughter came | in for their share in the mines de- | velopment While Reeves stuck to his | drill. Mrs. Reeves and her daughter | picked huckleberries and sold them. | Then the big ledge was opened up, and | Presto, change"-another American | millionaire.
 That was less than two years ago, and now the mine is owned by nine | men and women, who are said to have l refused $10,000,0O0 for their property. | This is the story which has gone out l from the Occur dAlenes, but MT. | Reeves prefers not to discuss the mat 1
 ter. As the story goes, the Gould and | Rockefeller people, who have recently | invested many millions in Occurs l d Alenes, approached the owners of the l Hercules with an offer of $10,000, 900, | but the owner had seen only the seamy | side of life until the Hercules changed | the order of events, and one of them tersely remarked
 We don't want to sell our mine to no capitalists
 This sentiment was heartily con- cured in by all, so it is probable that the Hercules will go on grinding out dividends for it's nine fortunate own- CTS for many years to come.-Los An geles Times.

 turbulent passions of the French revo- lution appeared for the first time this expression of human sin and suffering with it's background of doubt and skep- tical problems as a warning which the people could not well take then, but
 which later found so magnificent setting
 and so general reception all over the
 world as witness that the people felt
 and saw in the Faust drama the classic rendering of deep and varied human ex- periences. Asreminder also of the truth of the heroic proclamation of that other German genius, when voicing the popu- lar conscience in a time of strife and uncertainty: Man shall live by faith alone"

ABOUT GOEGHG'S FAUST,
LECTURE BY MR HUIZENGA BE.
 FORE BERKELEY CLUB.

sfigh Position of Faust-TransIations The Growth of the Piay-Soine of it's Features Human Elements Por- trnyed.
 MT. Huizinga, of the Yale Divinity |chool, delivered an address on "Faustp before the Berkeley Mems club on Wednesday, which was in brief as fol- [ows:
 | The Faust tragedy is drama, which ccupies perhaps the foremost place in he world It was carried in the mind f. the great German genius for full six E years, and ennbodies 9il the phases of uman life with ever. recurring touches In the fundamental problems of life. It @ somewhat national in structure as to &s elements, but of universal and clas- ic meaning throughout. There is room pr criticismson the linking together of he first and second part; the poem as whole is more an organic growth than
 masterpiece after preconceived Ian. And here lie it's defects as it's lerits. No less than five composers set to music; Spohr, Sehunnann, Berioz, oito and last, though not least, Gou- od Translated into almost every lan- |uage of the world, it has also absorbed the ablest literary efforts to render it to English, among whom the Scotch tnk first, Carlyle, Blackie, Anster and latham. Tn this country a splendid Pndering has been given by F. H. edge, a Harvard professor, who should
 gratefully remembered as the Amer an pioneer in the German world of let ITS, and whose place is so eminently led to-day by the rare literary scholar, rancke. Taylor's Faust and Miss wanwick's translation deserve also of uch praise, and Calvin Thomas col- ge edition for study is certainly a good ece of work. For study of the drama nd Goethe, for they are closely con- ected, one may study with profit Mar Alier's studies on Goethe, Kuno Fisher S Naust and Otto Harnack's Goethe on ae height of his fame.
 ' As the subjec. of the address was the ppular meaning of the Faust, the sec hd part was left out of consideration ld attention fixed on the following ,ints: The Faust legend, Faust's .epticism and the incapacity of his ith, which results in the compact with ephistopheles. The learned doctor Pes not want to sit always before the ent sphinx and turns to magic with [e result of invoking the supernatural il company The compact is that Me istopheles agrees to undertake to rye and satisfy Faust, and if succeed g. Faust is to take his turn in the xt World for Satan. The pathetic in- |ient of Margaret's fall, this match
 IS picture of betrayed love, has as- |lned the major proportion in the pop ar mind, and well might it. For in concrete at least we may find here IT key to the situation of the poor sim lg Faust.
 The speaker was of opinion that orig billy the devil gained his point. But
 Faust covers largely Goethe himself
 the later reconstruction, especially Eth the second part, emphasis was Id on the belief that
 "Tne ever active, striving soul

GROWING IN PUBLIC FAVOR.

The success of municipal ownership of street rail
roads in Europe, and especially in Great Britain
has at last convinced the people of Paris that they
should acquire their own transportation systems
The French metropolis is showing its faith in the
superiority of municipal ownership by putting up a
greater amount of money than has yet been expendtd
by any city.
| By an act passed on the 26th of July, 1903, the
municipality of Paris was authorized to borrow no.
railroad. This sum is equivalent to about $4,000
1000 of money. In pursuance of this law the city
and on the 10th of April the subscription for the
bonds was opened to the public for the full amount
The policy undertaken by the French metropolis
is the more significant as the city has had a more
fortunate experience with private corporations than
have the cities of Great Britain and America. The
French law has strictly suppressed the enormous
overcapitaation that has been such feature of our
own roads. The capitalization Of the Partisan com
panies has been kept down to actual cost and the
interest and dividend charges have been strictly
limited Income above the legal requirements has
been turned into the public treasury The interests
of employees and the public have been safeguarded az
far as possible by laws These regulations placed
the public the most favorable terms that could be
expected under any form Of private management |
Yet after a careful study Of the problem the ad- |
ministraton of Paris has found that the cities that
own their own street railroads are in still better
position.
Paris is entering into this work for the reason
that nearly every important municipality in Great
Britain is building buying its own roads-because
under municipal ownership city can give better
service to the public, furnish better conditions for
employees and do it for less money than any private
corporation.
