running Pisn,e.

Sing 70 ho for the track of woe Of the darkest seourge of the Spanish
 main. And the ships go out and the ships go in, But never will happen his likes again. For the punnng pirate was on the seas, And his deeds were written in words of
 fear Twas bitter joke for the sailor folk When the punning pirates bark drew
 near. Fore and aft and hammer and tongs, The brow of the sailor was cold and dank. They were more afraid of the puns he made Than of pistol or cutlass or rope or plank. He never would fail, as he hove in hail, To torture his innocent victims thus, In words of thunder, T make no blunder In levying toll with my plunder-bus Good crew, heave to. and we'll all heave, And we'll board them free if they'll only
 wait. And think we orter declare no quarter Until we quarter their pieces Of eight. Then the seamen all on deck would fall, Overcome by the plague of pun, And the pirate would board with his reck-
 less horde,
 When general slaughter was begun. Then he'd run them down and he'd run them
 through,
 And he'd butcher and slash with a fendish
 joy, Carpenter, engineer, cook and crew, Mate and purser and cabin boy. When deck and floor were slick with gore. The pirate would pipe up jolly and chip
 per, ''The captain bold is down in the hold How careless of me to have skipped the
 skipper! Then over and over the joke he quoth As the plank was set for finis thrilling, ''Plankety-plank is my only oath Over the side with 'enl-isnt that kill
 ing?" So he ravened in gore for years score, Till. filled with rhetorical sins. he died For he swallowed pun that was scarce
 begun
 And fell in a spasm over the side. But even yet, when the fogs are wet, A wrath will rise from the sea-mists Afrighting the ships with his punning lips, Twas fitting grave for grave of-

USSIAN REYOLUTInNES1s

Russia has other troubles than the war with Japan. She has to keep a sharp eye on her own subjects, some of whom are liable to show themselves revolutionary at any minute For in- stance, a big scandal, with a revolu- tionary background, has occurred at the hospital at Sevastopol, ending in the peremptory resignation of all the nurses and medical staff. It appears that the chief dispenser, M. Kantow- witch, had been propagating Socialist doctrines among the soldiers. One of the latter informed the police, who were able to surprise two meetings which were attended by twenty-five and fifty soldiers, respectively. These soldiers were arrested, but released in the course of few hours. The officers

PLAIN TALK BY COZ HEYWARD.
 In the special message of Governor Hayward of South Carolina to the leg islature he denounces lynching and points out that the means at his dispos- al are insufficient to wage an effective campaign in stamping out the practice. The governor says: Any band of lawless men may feel secure in taking the life of a being on almost any pretext. This deplorable condition ought to be remedied. To compel the proper respect for the majesty of the law recommend the enactment of special legislation in reference to lynching, that the great re- sponsibility of officials directly charged with enforcing the law be used for the apprehension of persons who take the law into their own hands. In lieu of some other legislation. I suggest that the governor be provided with an ade- quate fund for the purpose of suppress ing lynching.
 If money will do anything toward suppressing lynching in South Carolina the governor ought to have all he wants. It is encouraging that he is out spoken about the matter, and it will also be encouraging if the legislature gives him it's support. South Carolina needs nothing more than the suppress sion of lynching. and the same can be said of some of the other southern States.

With reference to the origin of the familiar exression, ''so long" a corre- spondent of The London Academy sug- gests that it is derived from the Nor wegian. "saa Laenge,'' a common form of farewell, equivalent in meaning to s'au revoir.'' and pronounced like so long, with the .'g'' softened. There was a fair number of Norwegians among the settlers in America, to judge by names, and it is quite likely the phrase was picked up from them. It is in general use among the Dutch in South Africa.

Senator Dubois tells of Kentucky nountaineer's first experience with a, railroad train. He had gone to the nearest station to see the transporta- tion wonder, arriving ahead of schedule time, so that the train could not steal by him unawares. Alter a while he started out to meet the helated loco- motive. He met it as it rounded curve. Turning about, the mountaineer ran along the track as for his life. "Tcot, toot." sounded the locomotive. slowing up, but the mountaineer only dug the gravel more industriously than ever. He soon reached the station, completely out of breath. "Why didn't you cut across?" inquired one of the hystanders. "Cut across?" roared the mountaineer. If I'd ever took to that plowed land the blamed thing would have cae;ght up with me for sure

WONDERFUL ORE
IN GOLDFIELD
Remarkable Assays From
Jumbo Lease.
The January Increasing Its Output
and Higher Grade Ore Now
Being Shipped.

The Combination mine continues to
pursue the even tenor of its way,
maintaining regular shipments of
high grade ore, the returns from
which are not available for publica-
tion, but which are more than salts
factory to the owners.
On the January the steam hoist
has been taxed to its utmost capacity
raising to surface enormous quanti-
ties of ore which had accumulated in
the drifts and crosscuts on the 50 IS
and ll2 foot levels, and until this has
been cleared up sinking cannot be re-
sumed. On each of these levels there
is shoot of ore three feet wide
which assays 81. 1872 per ton The
following are the returns received
this week.
Is tons net $8622 50 or $479 per
ton; 8 tons net $11S1. Is or Sl47 "a
per ton; 27 tons net 1864 u or
$l06 08 per ton; 21l tons net $2335. 63
or Sl08 63 per tom Fl tons net
$9740. 80 or $463 SO, making total net
returns to date $40, l75. 10. As the
shipments are keeping pace with
smelter returns there is practically
no diminution in the amount of ore,
$50, 900 worth, in transit mentioned
last week
At the Jumbo the Vermilyea lease
has so far yielded seven coal oil cans
full Of sensationally rich ore which
will return anything from $5, 600 to
SO, 900 per ton, one specially select, d
piece assayed s25l, 444 So per ton.
This streak is of course very narrow
but there is GOOD width of shipping
ore of grade sufficiently high 10
satisfy the ordinary man. This week
the first shipment from the Bowes-
Kernick lease was made and the re-
turns will be anxiously looked for by
all. Ridge & Curtis will be ready to
make a shipment in few days.
On the Red Top, on which compe-
tent mining men believe the junction
of the Jumbo and Combination veins
will be found, high grade milling ore
4 is being opened up, the rich ore
found near surface not having be- n
located yet This is in measure due
to a considerable movement of the
strata having taken place which has
probably thrown the ore shoot out of
| place.
A large number of sales of claims
have been made this week and sew
eral new companies are being or
! ganized.

GOLD MOUNTAIN.
The District Fulfilling the Prom
Use of Early Days.

At the Tonopah- Gold Mountain
mine the tunnel on the Beehive claim
which is being driven to tap the ri, h
ore shoot, has encountered the casing
of the vein and should be in the pay
streak in few feet. On the Eureka
claim the tunnel on the vein is still
being driven and some very rich ore
is being sacked. There is a great
Improvement in the nature of the
quartz which is more solid and shows
the gold all through Returns from
the last shipment gave values of s O6
or gold and or silver or $l63 40
per ton. Regular shipments of prob
ably one carload per week will be
made hereafter.
The east drift on the 225 foot level
of the Tonopah Union is in seventy
five feet, at which point the ore body
is 10 feet wide of which nearly three
feet is Of shipping grade, the remain
der being good milling ore. The
values have steadily increased since
the drift was started and at first
silver values predominated but now
fully two thirds of the values are in
gold Two shifts are being worked.
AT the Kankakee satisfactory pro
gress in sinking is being made and
good values are found in numerous
stringers in the shaft.
On the Lucky Baldwin group in
the east drift on the 90-foot level, 10
feet from the shaft, the footwall side
of the vein has been struck carrying
stringers of shipping grade in gold.
On the surface the best values in the
vein were on the hanging wall and
the drift will be continued to this
where r. 7. Brodek, the manager,
looks for good values.
