An Editor Found Dying in His Room
in New York.

New York, Sept. S.--1Jacob H. gThonnp-
son. an editor of the Times, was today
found Unconscious and apparently dying
from the effects of a fractured skull, a
stab wound and stranguiation in his
room at the ST. James hotel, in Forty
fifth street. The police believe murder
was attempted. Thompson was found
fully dressed, and even wearing his eye
glasses, one of which had broken off
and had cut his eye. Finger marks were
found on Thompson's neck, the larynx
was fractured and thsre was evidence
that blood had burst from both ears.
Physicians say Thompson had lain
where he was found for several hours.
Bills amounting to $40 were found in
his pockets and the hotel servants said
they had found no pons in the room
which might account for the fractured
skull or other wounds. Thompson is
about 60 years old.

which is now the site of the famous Bun
ker Hill Sullivan mine. The owner of the
mule sued for a third interest in the claim
and the courts granted it to him, claiming
that the mule had made the discovery,
and that, as he was its owner. he was en-
titled to the mules share. The three
owners sold their discovery for $500 600 and
nothing was too good for that mule for
the rest of his days. He was exhibited in
a private car and lived on the fat of the
land and now a tombstone marks his
grave. His harness hangs in a noted sa-
loon, where it is gazed upon with deepest
reverence by the old-time prospectors. The
mine is the richest silver-1ead mine in the
world, yielding net revenue of 81, 500 600.
Since their discovery in 1884 the Occur
d Alene mines have produced nearly $780,
000,00O in gold, silver and lead.

A Mule and Millions.

In the August Worlds Work this story
is told of the discovery of the famous
Occur d Alene mines. Half the lead that
has been mined ir the United States has
come from the famous Occur d Alenes, the

Like many of the richest mines, they were
discovered by pure luck. A man lent his
mule to two prospectors. In the course of
their wanderings the mule was tied TO

The right of a railroad to disfigure by its erec
still unimpeached. But there is a growing
feeling that there are passages OF natural seen
cry which are not thus to be insulted- To take
advantage of q famous work of nature by adver-
Using to take tourists TO it, and then TO insult 1t
by an Infamous work of art, is a kind of self
devouring absurdity' of which il is 10 be hoped.
and even partly to be expected, that we have
seen the last. Such work is the cantiever
across Niagara, of which may take II, from
the later crossings of the gorge that the pro-
1ectorS have had the grace to become ashamed
In sooth, IT is grewsome object, fit to be COM
pared only with the other grewsome mOnstrosity
of the same construction that crosses the Hud-
son at Poughkeepsie. 1t is cheering to be told,
on professional authority. that these works rep.
resent a passing and now past phase even OF
engineering that in that view they are not
SOUND. and not even cheap. excepting only IN
first cost. The later crossings of Niagara, the
'spandriM braeed arch of go feet span, which
carries railroad, and the hinged arch OF the
record span of $40 feet which carries highway,
are neither of them unsuitable even 20 their
unique situation. The latter especially, con-
fronting the cataract almost directly as IL does,
is subjected TO the fiercest kind Of critical light
1t is the highest possible praise that can De
given to ii as work of art, but IL is only Just
praise, to say that IL bears that envisagement.
