SOCIAL STANDING HAS NO
BEARING
BY Lue F. Vernon

- 1o
The Reno Gazette proceeds to shed
tears of sympathy over the fact that
the young men who robbed the depart
ment store in that city may have to
suffer for their crime, on the fact,
seemingly, that they are not old In
years nor in criminal actions n are
sons of people of high social standing.
These young men are able and old
enough to have known that the goods
they were taking from the store did no..
belong to them. that 1t was a crime
and If found out might land them be-
hind prison bars Youth-one was a
married man, we believe-must be
taught hat the laws of our country do
not countenance taking articles. wheth-
er they be of large or small size, or
large or small In value, from a person
or finn when they do not belong to
them. A boy ten years old can tell you
the difference between a school house
and the swimming hole. These young
men accused of Iobbeiy-for it is moth
ing less-were and are of an g to
know that they had no right whatever
to purloin goods from the firm they
were working for and being thought
Of by the proprietors as honest help.
AS to the social standing of their
families. this should not figure in the
case whatever. If. from the Gazette's
idea, they had been sons of poor par
ents, or the sons of parents who may
now be doing time in the p~enitentiary.
they should be punished as an exampi.
to others, and the sentence be a heavy
one, nc doubt.
If these young men are proven guilty
they should be punished. whether their
parents are R~ockefellers. Chesterfield
ians, or run a sailo. s. boarding house.
II they are not guilty they should be
discharged and suit for false imprison-
ment begun Immediately against the
firm accusing them of the C ime of
robbery. The fact of their parents be-
Ing of the upper ten" or lower five
having any bearing In the matter, so
far as the public is concerned. Is not
to be thought of for an instant.

MINING ARSENIC.
lMAAANAAAAAMMMM

A Virginia farmer, up among the
foothills of the Blue Ridge Meuu-
tains, cleared a new field and pastur-
ed his cows there. Before long the ami,
mails sickened and one died. Think
ing that perhaps the spring which
dubbed from the rocks in apparent
purity might be the cause, the farmer
caused its waters to be analysed. It
was found that they contained arsenic
in such quantities as to render them
dangerous to man and beast. This
discovery, says the Boston Herald, led
to an industry, unique, not only in the
United States, but in the western
hemisphere; that Is, the mining of or.
senic ores and the manufacture of
white arsenic, for the supply of which
America has hitherto depended en-
tirely upon foreign markets.
Arsensic Is mined in Japan, Italy,
Portugal, Spain, Germany and Eng
land. Its uses are many. As a poi
son 1t has been known from very ear,
" times. The peasant women of Aus
tria consume large quantities of it,
having faith in its virtues as a beau,
tifier, and the men Of the same region
are addicted to its use in the mistaken
belief that 1t increases their bodily
strength and endurance.
Arsenic is a useful mineral. 1t Ii
used in the manufacture Of glass
white metal, Paris green and a great
variety of paints; in printing calico
in making toilet soap, cosmetics and
complexion powders; In the manufac
tuRe at fireworks and as a constituent
of many alloys. For these and SINH
lar purposes between FIVE and sir
thousand tons are imported into tn,
United States every year. The aver
age value Of white arsenic may b.
placed at about eighty-tlve dollars
ton.
1t was only about a year ago that
the arsenic ore was discovered In Viz
Einia; then the mountain top round tn,
present mining town Of Brinton wal
an almost uDbroken wilderness. IN,

story Of its transformation into q busy
industrial community is q good illus
tration Of the pluck and indomitable
Will to which America owes its indus
trial supremacy. The mine Is located
at the summit Of a mountain, three
thousand feet above the sea-level.
The physical difficulties that had to
be overcome were enormous.
The ore body averages twenty-five
to thirty per cent pure arsenic. It Is
found in assure veins, cropping out
at the surface and extending into the
earth for an unknown distance,
Twenty distinct veins have been dis.
covered, outcropping for distance of
seven miles, so that the deposits are
extensive enough to supply the worlds
demands for an indefinite period.
From the time when the ore enters
the crushers until the finished prod-
uct reaches the casks it Is untouchnd
by human hands. 1t Is carried ALONG
from point to point by automatic ar
engagements through each process of
manufacture. The impalpabIe dust
and poisonous gases generated are 50
dangerous that the atmosphere of the
plant has to be kept pure by artificial
means. AS further precaution tha
works are provided with hot and cold
baths, Of which the men are REQUIRED
to make use as soon as their daily task
Is completed.
AT the present time the output Is
three tons of white arsenic a dav,
When one stops to think of then,
these figures contain some startlino
possibilities. The output for four davs
would furnish a fatal dose for every
man, woman and child In. the United
States. In a few weeks the plant could
turn out enough arsenic to wipe on,
the entire population of the globe.
