superstitious populace Is excited and
depressed over the fire, regarding 1t as
an evil portent. The fire furnish
ed wonderful spectacle. The steep
mountains about the city were lighted
up as though 1t were day. hurrying
crowds OF frantic Koreans and Jap
anese troops arrived on the scene in
double quick time. There was extreme
fear for the American legation for
time. American marines formed a
bucket brigade and United States Min
lister Allen took extreme precautions to
prevent the flames reaching the lega-
ton. All the Korean Government rec
ords and accounts were lost, together
with much treasure. The loss Is esti-
mated at three million dollars.

SEEN BY FOREIGN EYES.
CHICAGO, April 16.-Speaking on
1.-The United States in European Eyes
M. Poultney Bigelow, Of New York,
has told the Twentieth Century Club
Of the opportunities afforded for es-
pecially trained college men In the ad-
ministration of the Philippines.
Secretary Taft In his last report on
the Philippines proves that we need In
the islands Americans who shall not go
there merely to make money or for
short terms, but young men who in
tend making a life work of the bust
ness" said Mr.. Bgelow.
1T is splendid career, calculated to
stimulate the ambition of our students
provided we give these young men
chance for promotion and a reasonable
certainty that they will not be dismiss
ed, excepting for business reasons.
"Our administration in the Philippine
islands is today the most expensive
imaginable for the mere reason that
generally incompetent men accept Of
flee under present conditions whereas
under a system similar to that of our
military schools we may expect cor
respondingly high standard. 1t is only
as a government official that the Amer
leans hand appears to palsy and his
moral senses to become blunt"
Mr.. Bigelow announced that he had
accepted the chair of foreign relations
and colonial administration at the Bos-
ton University.

A CHILD who is provided with
"a a garden space will enjoy
4 D. health and develop mind and
body. The space should be no
greater than the little hands can tend
and the young mind plan unaided.
The garden here pictured is the
especial care and pride of the little
people seen at work upon it. Each
child of this family owned a separate
little garden, In form, quality and
condition each bloomfield triangle or
oval or square spoke of the character
istics Of the young enthusiast who
owned it.
The large central bed seen in the
picture, which was taken last sum-
mer, was a sort of syndicate affair,
and received some attention from
each young gardener. In the early days
of spring it had held crocuses, tulips,
hyacinths and lilies of the valley; in
the latter part of April these bulbs
were removed and the ground sown
with the seed Of gilli-aOwer or stock,
which, it was promised, would be all
in flower by the middle of June. With
the early spring flowers and these
later ones there was no lack of bios
SONS for house decoration through
out the season.
The children had learned for them
selves that bulbs either planted in the
ground and well covered, or DOtted
and kept in a dark, cold place, will

should the woodwork in the sitting
room and bedroom. On the sitting
room side walls use plain cartridge
paper OF medium crimson. Choose a
shade that harmOnizes with the red in
the carpet. For the walls of your bed
room that open out of this, select 4
floral paper-a white ground with red
roses and green leaves. Change the
paper in your dining-roOm to plain
soft green. AS this is a southern
room you will find the color more
pleasing than the red you have used.
Mrs A. S. asks: "Will you advise
me if it is correct to have finished
dark oak, dull oak, and a few pieces
OF black furniture used together in
one living room?"
By making your woodwork exactly
correspond with the black finish of
the furniture, or the dull or polished
oak, you will find the variety used to-
gether quite unobjectionable. l do
not advocate a black paint with en-
amel finish. The wood can be painted
with drop black paint, and given
dull fnlsh by adding much turpentine
to the last coat. Or, if the wood can
be stained, use a dark brown wood
tint to which enough Of the drop black
paint ground in Japan has been added
to give the depth of tone desired.
This should be finished with one or
more coats of dead-lac. This effect is
better and more durable than the
paint. These enamels and stains are
moderate in cost. If you will send
me self-addressed post card | will
send you the name of the firm making
them.

Eleven years ago when the Colum- bian Exposition was about to be open ed, Chicago was promised visit from the warld's most economical million aire. Patrick Driscoll, of Arizona. but he was not seen in the crowds at Jack son Park, says the Chicago Chronicle. Mr. Driscoll had fully decided upon coming here for the purpose of seeing some parts of the world, but before he completed his arrangements for the trip President Cleveland made his public declaration against the free coinage of silver. Driscoll's income was cut down several thousand dol lars a month by an anti-silver coinage law. So he abandoned his journey. feeling that he could not afford so expensive a tour at such a time.
 Mir. DriscolI owns four of the best paying silver and gold mines in the Chloride Valley of Moiave county, Arizona, and has an income of over s90, 900 a year. yet he spends no more than s30 a month for his personal comfort. Many generous gifts, how ever, have come from the Driscoll bank account to poor miners and their suffering families.
 Driscon is supposed to be worth between s1,2OO,OO0 and s1.000 900. His income from his mines is s6,000 a month and he draws about s15,00 a year dividends on railroad stock in which he has invested in the early days. He has no relatives as far as he knows.
 The old miner had experienced all the prospectors poverty and hard ships until he was past the middle age, when he drifted down to the Cal ico mines. in San Bernardino county, California, in 1881 There he found a mine which he sold for s15.0OO. This gave him his first capital to deal with in mining on his own account. From Calico he went to Arizona, and in two years located base ore mine of sil- yer. gold and lead in combinations. The Diana and Antrim mines became

Los Angeles. Saturday.-A syndi- cate of Los Angeles capitalists have has purchased the Torres and Prietas railroad running between Torres sta ton on the Sonora railroad and the mines at Minas Prietas. This road is a narrow gauge line, sixteen miles in length.
 IL is announced that the purpose of the company is to extend this road in ls sputhelly direction 1f.,om Minas Prietas to the Yaqui river. passing through the coal and coke 3elds at Barranca and San Marcial and thence to the real mineral section along the upper Yaqui river.
 !, This company, it is stated. means to commence work as soon as pos sible The company now has opened up negotiations with the Mexican Ma tioDal R. R, which has recently built a tunnel from a narrow guage into a broad guage lie, for the purchase of several of the old locomotives of the line, which were in use when tha line was a narrow gauge.
 It it thought that the Southern Pa ceific system is backing the line. as that company has for a long time wanted to get a line into its coal fields at San Marcial. which are quite extensive and which the company has been developing for several years.
 This line will not only open up a country rich in coal and natural coke. of which there is also an extensive bed. but il will open up one of the richest mineral belts in the state of Sonora. For years past there has been considerable development work going on in the mines of that sec tion, but owing to the fact that they are located so for from the railroad transportation, only the very best of the properties could be made to pay and these have been working ever since and shipping their ore to out side smelters at an average cost of about two cents per pound. wagon haul. between the mines and Torres station

The smelter which will take per haps until the first day of next year to complete and start, will have two 100-ton capacity stacks.
 The Comanche company will put a quarter of a million dollars into the enterprise. which will undoubtedly eventually make it one of the lead ing reduction plants in the southwest. It is their intention to also construct a refinery in connection with this plant as soon as the smelter is com pleted and running smoothly Super in;endent Laughren, who has the work in charge, is on the ground and is considered one of the best shelter men in the country.
