r. L. Colburn has returned from San
Francisco after a pleasant months visit
in the Bay City. Dick reports having
had an exceptionally delightful visit in
the California metropolis but, neverthe-
less, was glad to get back to the greatest
gold mining camp and again be in the
harness. He states all interest now GEN.
ter. in Goldfield and particularly is this
true i'm San Francisco regarding the
stock market. People in California as
well as throughout the country have at
last awakened to the fact that there are
unlimited opportunities for the invest.
ment Of capital in bona fide securities OF
mining companies here upon which they
have every certainty of realizing splendid
returns. The healthy tone of the mar
ket, he states, shows conclusively the
confidence that has been established in
the permanency of the mines of the dis
trict and he predicts that there will be a
boom during the next year that will put
in the shade even the halcyon days of
stock trading in Colorado's great camp

STARTLING IN AUSTRALIA.
Bird introduced to Keep Down Insect
Pest Disappoints Its Friends.

From the London Spectator.
When fruit-farming began on an extern
siyc scale in Australia some rash persons
introduced the English starting in the hope
that 1t would aid in keeping the trees free
from insects. Many of the most mischiev-
Gus caterpillars spend the day in the
ground, climbing the trees at night, and as
a great number of the pupae of Insects
also burrow in the soil, the idea that the
industrious starting in It's quick and as
s!duous search over the grass would be
beneficial was natural enough.
Unfortunately. the authors of this ex-
pertinent we're obviously unfamiliar with
the risks attending all attempts to acclima-
tdze wild creatures. whether birds or beasts.
One of the many forms of mischief possibly
ensuing Is due to the well-ascertained prin-
ctple that when removed to another con-
tinent they often completely change their
habits, or adopt new ones to an extent
which makes them pest. This has hap
pened In the case of the starlings In Aus
tralia According to a report of the Ameri-
can sonsul at Melbourne they have not
only increased 10 myTiads, but have be-
come SO Injurious to the fruit-growers thai
whereas they were at first protected by law
these regulations have been repealed. and
steps are advocated for their systematic
destruction. The fruit destroyed by them

includes peaches. pears cherries, apples
hgs, apricots, plums, grapes and straw
berries. Both vine and fruit growing are
seriously threatened If the pest is not sup
pressed AS many as ten cases of apples
have been destroyed by these birds in less
than half an hour The report also adds
another fact, which any one who has fol-
lowed the recent history OF acclimatizing
would expect-namely, that the useful native
birds are being edged out" Valuable

CHEESE are the wood haunting kingfishers

common black-and-white kingfisher of
India), diamond birds, tree-swallows and
tree-creepers, are being turned out of their
nesting places in tree hollows by swarms of
starlings. and before long these birds so
useful to the farmer, will be driven out of
the country The starting is said TO raise
five broods in the year, and to multiply with
amazing rapidty. In one district three
years ago not one was to be seen. Now
there are thousands.
Before turning up the record of this bird
in New Zealand where 1t has long been a
suspect, had the Australian legislators cared
to inform themselves, II is interesting to in
quire why the starting has been such an
overwhelming success from its own point of
view. This is mainly due to It's intelli-
gence, energy and brains. No one seems to
have thought of the probable results OF CIV

Piano gan.

From the London Chronicle
"Piano-organ" seems to have got into the
nguage-unfortunately,. since the contriv-
ance so designated is neither piano nor
an organ Organ Tin musical language
means an arrangement of pipes or reeds,
with bellows, keyboard. pedals and draw
stops. The ''piano-organ" has none OF
these. Piano" is short for ''pianoforte,'
and indicates a keyed wire instrument
which can be played both softly (piano) and
loudly forte) Now nobody ever heard
''piano-o organ" play piano" possible
explana ton is that the first user of the bad
word ''piano-organ'' was trying TO combine
''pianoforte" and ''barrel-organ, and, of
course, he couldn't call the thing a barrel
