HOTEL COMFORTS ON STEAMERS

The new steamships going into com mission this year are to be Waldorfs and St. Regises afiOat. On the new hotel steamships the grillroom has grown into a large, modern a la carte restaurant. Passengers dine when they please, arrange luncheon and dinner parties for friends whom they may chance to meet on board and have a change from the meals served in the regular dining room. The much decried upper berth finds no place in the first cabin staterooms. The comfort of a lower berth is thus in sured to every passenger. Spacious ness is an important feature of the staterooms. Some of them have the unusual dimensions of 1OX17 feet. Suites of large connecting rooms, with private bath and toilet, are numerous. The ladies' salon, smoking room and other customary features found on all liners, are larger and more splendidly furnished on the 7OO-foot ship of to- day.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

EVOLUTION OF A NAME.

Two men who happened to be jour neying across a western state in the same railway train became so well ac- quainted with each other that when they neared the station where one of them was to get off they expressed their mutual pleasure in having met. exchanged business cards.
 One of the cards bore this inscrip- tion:
 Godfrey d'Arneille, attorney at law. WiIliamvilIe, Ohio
 "Williamville? said the other man. ''Why, I lived in that town when I was a boy"
 Well, this is a coincidence. I was born there and have lived there all my life
 T used to play with a boy named Jeff DarnelI. Maybe you know him."
 'Why-er-I ought to know him." said the other, looking somewhat confused That was my name. Sorry I can't talk to you longer. This is my des- tination. Good -bye."-N. Y. Sun.

SUCCESS THOUGHTS.

The best in others will only come out to meet the best in you.
 The man with an idea has ever changed the face of the world. One reason why we do not make the most of the winning material in our selves, is because of a magnified idea of the great superiority of others who do things in the world.
 As a rule, no good comes from crit icising others; anybody can do that, but the man who can accept his own honest estimate of himself. and resolve to profit by it, has achieved some thing.
 No matter what you are doing, think your way. Don't go without thinking; think everything out Don't run with out a schedult, have a program, and go by it. Think Think, Think!
 The great majority of people need bracing up all the time. They want to be treasured. They do not know their own minds; they are not sure of themselves. The leader, the man who can rule others, must be master of this art Encouragement is to many men what hattery is to some women.

When bulls and bears are widely tossed And rumors strange confuse, I mourn about no fortune lost have no wealth to lose. Though wagons moved by gasoline May sadly maim and scar l view them with a mind serene, have no motor car.

TALKING ABOUT AMMUNITION.

The Russians account of the way it rained shot reminds us of a conversa- tion between a northern man and a con federate some years ago, after the war. They were discussing a noted battle, when the confederate remarked that the trouble on their side was that they were short of ammunition. Short of ammunition" exclaimed the Yank. why, man alive, I was on the other side, and never saw as much ammuni- tion fall in all my life. I didn't know that there was as much ammunition in all the world. Short of ammunition, indeed! The very air was loaded with it, and it fell like haiI-and like h-I.' Richmond Times Dispatch

HEADACHES FROM BIG HATS.

distinguished English physician is authority for the statement that many a headache from which a woman suf- fers upon returning from a shopping tour. walk or a ride. is due to the strain upon the leverage of the roots of the hair, caused by the action of the wind upon large hats. Headaches hurt, but hats are handsome. Possibly some millinery genius will invent fem mine headgear in which it will be pos sible to take a double reef when the winds blow high and low, and call for undue strain upon the hair roots that make for wOmen's crowns of glory Cleveland Leader.

This mine has one of the most interesting histories of any in the country, it hay ing been first worked by the Mexicans until it was purchased of them by Lieutenant Sylvester Mowry of the United States army in 1860, who work ed it to a profit for a number of years. The ores were smeIted in a crude adobe reduction plant on the ground and the bullion hauled by wagons and packed by burrOs to Guaymas on the coast for shipment to Europe. The war depart ment at Washington confiscated the property. alleging that the lead pro- duct was sold to the confederate war department. Twenty years later the property was taken over and exten- sively worked by California parties It is now owned and operated by the MOwTy Mines company, under the management of J. N. Curtis.

 In the Twin Buttes camp, twenty-five miles south of Tucson there is renewed activity this season due largely to the building of the Twin Buttes railroad from Tucson and to the certainty Of the erection of a smelting plant by the Twin Buttes Copper company, either at their mines or at Tucson. The miner alized portion of the district is in a belt of limestone This belt, as proven by development, is of a width of three and Q half miles. The most extensive workings in the Copper Lane are at the southern end.
 The old Arizona mines, distant about seven miles southwest of the Twin Buttes are again being worked, this time by the recently organized Mineral Hill Consolidated Mining company. The Azurite and adjoining properties mineralize in large bodies close to the surface, the ore occurring in large chambers in the lime. A few years ago large quantities of this ore were smelted in a thirty ton water jacket furnace erected on the property. Both copper bullion and matte were shipped The new company will erect large reduc- tion works this fall.
