Outdoor sleepers in Colorado.

eff the present fashion of sleeping out

GAVE HIM A STRAIGHT TIP

He Would Take II on An
other Way.

In the days when Hon. Tip" Aplin
figured most prominently in politics
he had a countenance that could beam
good fellowship from every feature,
his eyes being as expressive as a writ
ten page. 1t took a whole lot to
disturb his good nature, but when the
alteration went far enough to make
him feel aggressive he was not the
man one would look around for TO
have sport with, says the Detroit Free
Press.
When he was first slated for post
master in West Bay City he was OPP
posed by one of these narrow-minded,
narrow-shouldered and so generally a
contracted specimen Of humanity that
he helped the Darwinian theory with
out being conscious of the fact.
Tip" took It all laughingly until tbs
impertinent shrimp" began to circu-
late such scandals az identified the
coming postmaster with horse thieves,
smugglers and all the rest OF the
more desperate classes Of criminals.
No decent man could endure this, and
Tip" classes oetaVes above those who
merely manage to be decent. His tenn
per asserted itself. He stopped his
generally narrow enemy on the street,
1t was not In Tip" to whip a man

quainted with the English language and
then warned him that be would be made
to think that the world was coming to an
end If he did not behave himself.

SAVED my LIFE

That's what a prominent
druggist said of SCOTS
Emulsion a S hort time
ago. AS a rule we don't
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in connec-
ton with SCOTS Emulsion
that they are worthy Of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age SCOTS
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying i'm
proper and weak develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The a tt 0 n of
SCOTS Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul-
sion itself. What it does
it does through nourish-
ment-the kind of nourish-
ment that cannot be OBJ
tanned in ordinary food.
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain SCOTS
Emulsion and gather good
from it.

ON RUGS AND CARPETS.
In the Latter Now One Can Find Elk
cellent Two-Toned and Chintz
Designs.

Among the body Brussels bedroom
carpets is one called the Waldorf car
pet. 1t has blossom with an all-over
design of leaves. Except for the in
distinct flower, 1t is a two-toned carpet,
and is made in blue and two distinct
shades of green. Another that was
very popular last season will be con-
tinued. 1t is a cherry blossom In a
diagonal design and has a very
"chintzy" appearance. 1t is attractive
in pale green, also in terra Gotta.
Two-toned designs in set patterns,
like oilcloths, are among the new
things in Brussels and Wilton carpets
and are quite good looking.
Among the domestic rugs are several
French Wiltons. A 9x12 costs $50 in
the best designs and colorings. Some
Of them copy the Persian rugs so close
ly that rug purchaser might be de-
ceived as to its genuineness.
One Of the rugs, copied from an old
Kermanshaw, is in pale rose creams
and blues, with the pear motif so often
used by the orientals.
The Bohkara design Is made IN two
tones in terra Gotta, and in a deep
crimson. Some of the India designs are
more assertive, a red ground with blue
medallion and borders being among
those most admired. The regular price
of a 9x12 Royal Wilton is $3.50, and
among these some good designs and
colorlngs can be selected. A better
quality can be bought for $3.50, the
coloring in these being very good.
The Smyrnas are slightly cheaper, a
good quality costing $3.50. A good
deal of rubbish is sold under the head
of Smyrnas, but every now and then
they crop up in good coloring and good
designs. lately found a beautiful old
red in Bohkara design with touches
of black as good as any of the French
Wilton, but it was not the usual price

made in all sizes, which is a great con-
venience when several are needed in

One e ening toward the end of May
Mr.. Breen gave little dinner party
in his private sitting-room. Ten la
dies and gentlemen, all keenly in
terested in philanthropic work, were
present, and even those Of them who
were high in the land treated their
gentle-faced host with unfeigned re-
spect and seemed to regard him with
sincere affection as well as admira-
ton.
81 must ask you to pardon my leav-
ing you for a moment, my friends"
he said, suddenly. 81 find 1 have left
my notes on the scheme in my room"
With a word of thanks for the per-
mission readily granted and pleasant
smile to all Mr.. Breen left the room.
"He is a wonderful man, remarked
a countess. as it really the case that
he has given $4,000 to the children's
hospital in Whitechapel?"
"He handed the money to us yes
terday," said an old man with kindly
twinkling eyes. "And it was only
first installment, he assured me. But
he has made so many magnificent gifts
recently that one fears he must soon
exhaust himself. Truly, it was Provi-
dence that allowed John Breen to be-
come a rich man."
"He ought to be Sir John at least"
said pretty woman, though fancy
he would scorn a title"
Meantime Mr.. Breen was in his bed
room, searching for the slips of paper
on which he had set down the details
of his scheme.
He could not remember where he
had put them. Drawer after drawer
he tried without success. AS he drew
open the last drawer vivid fash Of
lightning lit up the chamber-he had
not thought it necessary to switch on
the electric light, as he had sufficient
light from the open door-and almost
Immediately a terrific peal crashed
overhead.
John Breen's fingers closed on some
thing In the drawer and presently a
look of amazement oyerspread his
countenance.
The philanthropists waited in vain
for his temperance.

other very promising properties,

Proper Movement Started.

At the August meeting of the
American Mining Congress a
movement was started that it is
believed will in time secure for
the great and growing mining
interests of the country proper
recognition by the creation of
department of mining, with a
cabinet officer at it's head, by
congress- So far in the life of
the present congress nothing that
is visabla on the surface has been
accomplished, and inasmuch as
this congress expires March 4th
next, it is not improbable that
the matter viii go over to the
succeeding congress. In the
meantime the officials of the Min
ing Congress and other organized
bodies of like character have their
work cut out. 1t will require
much agitation and public discus
sion before the object desired is
attained. The merits of the de-
mand for q cabinet place are well
understood by the tens of thous-
ands of our citizens directly and
indirectly interested, but the
general public will require the
aid of a campaign of education
before public sentiment, so-called
appears to make the demand.
With public sentiment to support
a move of this character it's ac-
complishment is easy, and in the
absence of such sentiment the
task is difficult. Public indiffer-
ence counts for opposition with
our lawmakers, and how to re-
move this semblence of hostility
should be the first thought anC
effort of those directly charged
with securing this much needed
legislation. With publicity" az
their motto, coupled with a little
energy, the dream of a Secretary
of Mining will be realized.

The above property is situated
on the north side of the south
fork of the Clearwater, near the
mouth of Crooked river. The
group comprises ten claims owned
by George Esh. The magnitude
claimed for this ore body led to
an investigation on the part of
the MINING News which was
made this week, but owing to the
fact that most of the ground in
question is covered with snow
several inches deep, we are un-
able to say how extensive'the ore
body is. The south slope of the
breaks" upon which a great
portion Of the property lies is,
however, free from snow, and all
this ground is covered with dyke
float" for distance which in
dicates that it is 1900 feet wide.
The correctnessof the above con-
clusion is apparently borne out
by numerous trenches and ten
foot holes, all of which shows ore
in place for about the width indi-
Gated by the float. In tun-
mel which Mr.. Esh is running is
a breast of ore which in appear
ance is fully up to any ore of this
character to be found anywhere

AS a precaution for the protec-
tion of stockholders from specu-
lators, the bylaws provide for
the pooling of all stock, both pro-
moters and treasury. Of the
total capital stock, six hundred
thousand shares have been set
aside as treasury stock. The by
laws also provide that all funds
of the company shall be placed in
bank, and drawn out only by
check from the proper official,
upon due authorization of the
trustees. A further provision is
made prohibiting the company
from contracting a debt when
there are no funds on hand to
meet the same.
The company has plenty of TIM
Der and ample water rights for
the successful development of
the property. In fact, work is
being prosecuted at the present
time. There is no season in the
year that this company cannot
carry on its work advantageously,
as the snow fall at Elk City is
lighter than at any other point in
central Idaho.
Only a limited number of shares
of the treasury stock will be
placed on the market at the pres
ent time. Those who are ac-
quainted with the property and
the district declare that it is one
of the most promising of I'll OF

eral lands. -Asotin Seminal.

A New Mining Company Organized
by Asotin People.

On Tuesday the article of in
corporation of the Oro-Plata Min

pany were filed with the county
and state auditors. The incorpo-
rators of this new company are:
w. G. Woodruff, president; VIM.

treasurer, and VIM. G. Baquet,
travelling agent. The capital
stock of the company is named
at 81, 900, 900, divided into one
million shares of stock, the par
value of one dollar each. 1t is
the object of this company to
develop the low-grade, gold bear
ing ores of the Liberty group of
claims, located in the Elk City
district, about five miles from Elk
City, at the point where Crooked
river empties into the south fork
of the Clearwater river, on the
same dyke as the well-known
Hogan property. The company
possesses six claims that were
located by George Esh and VIM.

ing been identified with Charles
Sweeney in the Buffalo Hump
district for many years. The
width of these claims is 2500 feet
and they have an altitude of nine
hundreds feet above the river.
The character of this ore is of &
porphyry, carrying a value OF
$3.50 to the ton, and can be cas-
lily treated. There are numerous

the property, carrying high val
