that it is simply a mining prop
Osition. This is a mistake, as it
is a general development COM
pany, and does not depend upon
its mining interests alone for its
profits. The timber lands owned
by this company, for which an
immense market is springing up,
will at a minimum estimate show
a net profit of from $500 to $500
per acre for the timber alone,
aside from their value for agri-
cultural and stock raising pur-
poses. This alone should make
the stock OF this company worth
$500 per share within twelve
months.
In addition to what we now own
the company controls by option
over $4,000 acres of the finest
timber and ranch lands in Mex
leo, into which railroads are now
being extended, from which an
immense profit will be made.
A message recently received
from our President, Mr.. Davis,
states that ore had been struck
in one of our mines, the "Aven-
turera," running 81 500 to the
ton. For several years, as
shown by the American and
Mexican Smelters, to whom the
ore was shipped, this mire pro-
duced from SEQ to 1000 tone of
ore per month, even under the
crude and unbusinesslike meth
DDS by which it was worked.
The records of the property
show the maximum, not mini
mum, cost of production to be
$3.G5 per ton, to mino and deliv-
er at the Smelter. These costs
are not estimates. but actual
figures taken from the COM
pany's accounts. In such inn
mense ore bodies, there is 10
reason why 1udjcious eXpen-
diture of a moderate amount of
capital, should net bring the pro
duction I'D to more than 5000
tons per month, and maintain it
at that figure for many years
to come. The net profit on low
grade ore viii run SIS to $1,000
per ton. Assuming for safety
that three-fourths of the ore will
be classed as low grade ore, and
the output maintained at min
imum Of 1000 tons per month,
there would result a monthly net
profit of $4,000 to 500 900. With
an output of 5000 tons. per
month, this profit would be more
than doubled. 1t is more than
probable that ores of very much
higher values will come in with
deeper workings. The great
Mexican Camps Of Santa Eula->
LA, Sierra Mojada. Penoles and
Monterey have each maintained
for years a product of over | 900
tons of ore per day, and there is
no reason why this company
should not do as we'll or even
better. The San Rafael Mines
are paying $500 per share per
month, the Penoles $4,000 per
share, and the Norias de Bajan
$4,000, in fact IS of the more
noted mines in Mexico pay near
" S9,000000 in dividends annual
ly, and our properties are as
good as any of them.

Leap Year Valentine Ball.

In honor OF st. Valentine and in recog-
milton OF the unusual advantages of this
year Of grace, Leap Year Valentine ball,
which proved to be one of the pleasantest
Of social events, was given in Grange hall
by number OF the young ladies last Fri
day evening.
Good taste directed skillful hands in the
decoration of the hall, which was rendered
more attractive by drapery hangings at
the windows, and screens disposed along
the walls. Hearts pierced with darts were
placed on each side Of the stage and in the
center of the room, while overhead from
the braces across the hall were suspended
rows of little hearts on white back
ground. Al one side, from a table, whose
white cover was bordered with hearts,
punch and waters were served, in the
intervals of dancing, by Miss Helen Wedg-
wood and Miss Effie Dunbar.
Inspiring music was furnished by a
Mortified orchestra of five pieces with
Edward Connell of Mortified as pianist
and Q. o. Dumas Of this place cornetist.
The programs for the occasion were very
appropriately in the form OF heart-shaped
valentines with the order Of dances on the
back.
The gentlemen, having been duly es-
corted TO the hall, became the objects of
gallant attentions on the part OF the ladies,
who took the initiative, filled programs
and solicited dances with a graceful
assumption of uaaseuline prer0gatives,
while the usual performers OF these social
duties unfurled their fans and enjoyed the
unacuustomed pleasures of beng thus
courteousfy waited upon.
There were present Al couples, who, in
the evofutions OF a very pretty grand
march, followed the leadership Of Roy c.

X. y. Kimball, written by John Henry
Flagg OF New York, himself Vermonter
and an times past an occasional guest AT
Montague place, the summer home OF
tine kim boil family in Randolph.
MIR. Flaeg was born in Wilmington.
the son OF the late Gen. Stephen Flagg,
q leading lawyer and man OF affairs who
served repeatedly ian both branches OF
conventions and other political gather
lngs. The son practised law in Ben
nington and in 1864 was clerk of the state
House of Representatives, being the
youngest penson who ever held that office.
For eight years he was principal clerk
OF the United States senate and was
prominent in formulating legislation in
Congress, dssning the relation OF our
government Do the Geneva award paid by
Great Britain under the treaty of Wash
ington and subsequently prosecuted TO
q euecessful termination many important
cases under tbat treaty. Later he re-
sumed his law practice and has been for
many years counsel for the Standard Oil
company and other petroleum interests.
While has pen has been employed prin-
cipally in prose compositions, which have
appeared in the magazines and elsewhere,
he has at times produced verse OF a fine
order, notably his epostrophe TO Vermont.
His tribute 10 Col Kimball follows:

His greeting gave with wonted cheer
And words that BODIED nanght Of in;
But gazing toward the world beyond,
And pausing not 20 bid farewell,
LIS mystic portal he then passed
To Gods supernal realm OF peace.
It's not alone that friends lament,
For those have lost who knew him least.
He loved mankind-not rich. nor poor,
Nor caste, nor creed-but one and all
His brothers Of the human race.
And as he climed life's Alpine peaks
And spied some follower far below
In quest of heights he could not gain,
Glad would be turn 10 lift him up
The sleeps which he himself had gained,
And noted net his own delay,

So cunning vile did he employ
70 swell the shifting hoard Of gain,
But honor was the coin he paid
