Mining Items from Wickenburg, Mart

The Orc Grande mine is attracting a great deal of attention these days. An other brief run was made last Sun day. The rich cleanups that have been made from these short runs are making the management impatient to get these temporary tests over with so that they may see the proposed big mill in oper- ation on the rich ore. survey has been commenced for a pipe line sup plying the mill with water.

PLAYED DIXIE AS GORDON DIED.

While the spirit of General Gordon was passing away in Miami, Creatore's band at the Grand opera house in At lanta was playing a beautiful medley, d blending of Dixie" and Maryland. My Maryland" two airs so dear in southern hearts. There were hundreds of Atlantans in the theatre who listen ed in tense silence to the swelling strains and then when the music ceas- ed burst into a storm of uncomfortable applause inspired by a flood of pat riotic sentiments and the spell of the melody. No one knew at the time, or course, that the instant of dissolution had come to the beloved Gordon, but later, when they heard the message. He is dead" there came a thought that as his spirit took its flight he felt and knew that patriotism in so many hundred hearts enveloped and included him. The coincidence was remarkable when it was known that the band gn- der the control of Creatore's assistant swung into the strains of Dixie and Maryland, My Maryland' at exactly 1O:05 o'clock. the moment when Gen eral Gordon passed into the great be- yond.

TEA IN EN GLAND.

Miss Marie Corelli's statement that she would not object to q tea shop ad- joining the sacred precincts of The Birthplace, because such possibly may have existed in Shakespeare's time has aroused a good deal of amusement and has. moreover, started the discussion as to when tea was actually introduce1 into England. In Sir Walter Besants. London in the Times of the Stuarts, he makes the introduction of tea coin cident with that of carpets, about 1860. Previous to this time, Sir Walter says, wine or ale was drunk at breakfast and the growing use of tea was as- sailed as symtomatic of national de- generation. Each member of well regulated English household was eX- pected on the average to consume three quarts of ale daily, but this would have been regarded d stemperance indeed compared with Dr. Johnson's later twenty cups al a single pouring.

THE NEW MAGAZINE COVERS.
The Spirit of Innovation Has Claimed
 This Once Unchanging Feature.

Apropos of the handsome cover that Mr. George Wharton Edwards has
 made for the Critic and which is in- augurated with this number. I have been looking over the cover history of the leading American magazines. It is astonishing the change that has come over publishers in the matter of cov- CTS. In old times but one cover design was used, in season and out We could tell magazine by it's cover as far as the eye could reach. But it is very diff ferent nowadays. Some of the newer
 magazines are never seen twice with the same cover design. The Atlantic
 Monthly. like Jenny Wren, wears a
 brown gown throughout the years;
 no occasion sees any change in it's front. When the Century Magazine
 was started, some thirty years ago, 1t
 was very proud of it's cover, which was
 then considered striking and artistic
 It was lilac in color and the design was
 something like ornamental iron work
 Such cover would be impossible to-
 day. Some years after it's birth. MT.
 Stanford White designed the cover
 which is the most familiar to Century
 readers, and it was this cover that set the pace for all the other magazines
 Massing the lettering at the top was something new-a green foundation with center of ivory touched off with
 Venetian red; a more conspicuous cover on the news stands. no doubt, than the old one. While the Century was still using MT. Whites design it would on occasion have special covers, and was, if my recollection serves me, the first magazine to have new cover de- signs for special numbers.
 Harper's Magazine was the last O. to change it's cover design. For half a century # wore the same dress; but since Colonel Harvey took command it changes it's color with each num- Der. At Christmas time, when all the magazines come out in gay colors and new designs, Colonel Harvey brings out HarDer's in a single color with the simplest sort of a design, making the magazine conspicuous by its simplic-

NARROW ESCAPE INDEED.
How Some Admiring Friends Nearly Robbed a BookIoVer of Rare Volumes.

One of our literary lights" who loves fad dog cared, moth-eaten, finger printed old book more than any other thing upon earth was recently in much distress. In a library of some 5000 volumes which he was thirty years in getting together were many such friends. He held them in reverence. Blindfolded, he could open them at any page and lay his hand on any desired passage. One fatal day-about a month before Christmas-a rich married couple spent the evening with him and his family, and being left alone for a few minutes in the library concocted a ter rible conspiracy. What a horrible mess his books are in," whispered the wife. Dear, why don't you take down a list of these rubbishy volumes and send him an entire new set as a Christ mas present. We can bribe the servant to make the substitution some night when the family are at the theater." An! Happy thought! Splendid idea I've been wondering what we should give him." The generous fellow smiled dehghtedly.
 Briefly: The names of some thirty five "worn-out' volumes were obtained
 
 and in due time brand new duplicates in rich bindings, were placed upon the shelves by the faithful and devoted maid-of all work. The rubbish" was turned over to second hand book dealer in the vicinity at a price to be named by him when he had time after the holidays to appraise it. Readers and authors must imagine the scene that n1 hn" cfn limo covery was made by our literary light tha his precious books had mysterious " disappeared and in their places were things" with stiff backs and immac- ulate leaves. It is not in me to describe it because words cannot do full justice. When the generous couple called on Christmas day to find to find joy the stumbled upon tragedy. The maid had already unbosomed, as it were. and detectives were out searching for the second hand dealer. who was making holiday.
 After a profound and impressive sil- ence, our literary light, sadly gleaming upon the couple remarked: "To prove your friendship you have robbed me of thirty-five friends far more precious. It is not easy to forgive a pair of stupid fools, but your youth and inexperience exonerate you. Assist me in finding my old friends and you shall be absolved." On the following day the dealer ap- peared of his own accord to inquire if some odd mistake had not been made. He had looked the bookks over and rec ognized several that he had sold years before to our literary light. Perhaps some one had stolen them from the Explanations followed the books were returned, the maid was re- warded and the generous couple re- ceived a good dinner, with mild lec- ture on book lore as sauce. Moral: Never trust friend or an enemy ir your library.-New York Press.

THE MINISTER'S SON
We'll Presented at the Doris Last
 Night.

"The Ministers Son." a most inter- esting drama, was presented at the Doris theater last night by w. B. Pat ton and a talented company of sup porting artists. The audience was not as large a one as the performance mer- ited owing to the inclemency of the weather and the fact that the town has been undergoing the financial strain of an almost continuous performance by one company or another for some weeks.
 The play is advertised Gs a comedy production and it is really well embel- lished with humorous incidents, but beneath 1t all runs a little story of deep interest; one that cannot but ap- peal ito the emotions of those who pos sess any degree of sympathy for those unfortunately situated.
 The story, though, is just the one necessary for the purposes of Mir. Pat ton who Is styled the peculiar" come dian, for he is a once the hero and the leading funny man. Tall, dignifisd and self possessed he is we'll fitted for the role of a man, who pure in heart, knows the world well and acknowledg- ing the error of his wayward sister through the force of his own character and his physical determination, com mands events, restores her good name and punishes the author of her shame.
 But there is no use in grieving dur ing the moments that intervene be- tween the moments of action, and it is then that MT. Patton's humor is dis played. It is not of the riotous, jump ing jack order. either. but consists mainly in saying ridiculous things while events are yet enshrouded in the atmosphere of the sublime that imme- diately preceded. The company is larg- CT than most of the dramatic road companies, unattended by ballet or vaudeville. and most of the parts are ably handled.

 Scribner's Magazine is famous for its cover designs, employing the best artists to do their prettiest. McClure's cover used to be given over to pictures, but now 1t has assumed a simple de- sign not unsuggestive of Harper's or iginal cover, except as to color. One of the most beautiful of the the past Christmas covers is that of the Worlds Work. It is really more like a book cover than cover for a mag azine, but it is nevertheless striking as well as elegant-The Critic.

Catarrh has already become a national curse. Its ravages extend from ocean to ocean.
 More than one-half the people are affected by it. T. has become such a serious matter that 1t has passed the boundaries of the medica, profession and become a national question. Sena- tors are talking about it; Congressmen are discussing it.
 They are not only considering the ex- tent and chronic nature of the disease, but the possi bilIty of finding national remedy to meet this national calamity.
 The catarrh remedy, Peruna, seems to be the main expectation in this direc- tion.
 Dr. Hartman, President of The Hart man Sanitarium, devised the remedy, Peruna, over forty years ago, and the remedy as a catarrh cure has been grow ing in favor steadily all these years.
