ANOTHER LITERARY AMBASSA-
 DOR.

MT Reid has achieved distinction in
 so many fields that his literary abil- ity has been to some extent, obscured by his public services. MT. Reid is the
 Sir William Russell of America, and
 his exploits as a correspondent in the
 civil war placed him, before he was 30,
 in the front rank of descriptive writers. It is, of course, the first duty of the war correspondent, and especially the Amer ican war correspondent, to 'get there" :" to get ahead of the other correspond ents, and to see that his paper re- ceives his messages at the earliest pos sble moment. Literary graces and per lection of style are by comparison, un-
 important, but t is MT. Reid's great distincton that he achieved both ends. Aided to a certain extent by good luck, but chiefly owing to his own native shrewdness, he managed to be present a great battles and also to send a de- scription of them to his paper, The Cincinnato Gazette" which were not only of absorbing interest at the mo- ment as news, but also possessed lit erary merit quite remarkable, in view of tEe circumstances under which they were written. He described the whole Tennessee campaign, having contrived
 
 of Rosecrans. He was the only cores pondent who saw the whole battle of Pittsburg Landing, and he wrote a memorable "stOry" of Gettysburg. These achievments led directly to his long association with the New York Tribune, and in the conduct of that journal MT. Reid showed how great a power journalism may become when inspired by real literary culture. He. himself, descended from a long line of Scottish Covenanters. received an ed- ucatioD, both classical and mathemati- cal which enabled him to become, not only an admirable writer himself, but also a shrewd judge of other mems work. Though he has written much for The Tribune himself, he has, never less, alwG--s acted on the sound principle tat cn editor should rather be the cause of good writing in others. No doubt, remembering how he, himself, had sat at the feet of Horace Greeley, he showed an exceeding flair at dis covering writers. and also editors, of ability of whom MT. John Hay was the MT. Reid has always been a bookish man, and he thoroughly en- joyed his term of office as librarian of the house of representatives only giv- ing uD his post because he was anx- ious to wr!to his book, "OhiO in the War" This work is recognized as the most important of all the State his tories of t,-e war, and it is full of the most interesting biographies of the great soldiers on both sides. MT. Reid has also written an account of Southern tour which he took after the war, an introduction to the Memoirs of Talleyrand," and a volume entitled Problems of Expansion" published in 190O.-From "The Literary Associa- tiOns of the American Embassy" by F. s.

THE KELVIN DISTRICT
Wonderful Increase in Mining Aciiv-
 ity in That Region.

O. F. Sewers has recently returned from the Kelvin country, where he has for a long time been interested in a valuable group of mines He said last night that he did not care to speak of his own properties, but he would like to say something about the district, which he believes is just now the most attractive in the territory. The con fidence of mine owners in the future Of the district is steadily increasing, the growth of it being based upon further development work.
 Shots are heard at all hours of the day and night, giving one an impress sion that a desultory artillery battle is in progress. The heaviest shooting is heard between and II o'clock at night, when the ore is being knocked loose, to be taken out the next day.
 Speaking Of the Saddle mountain group. of which comparatively little has been heard MT. Sewers said that the company the other day paid a 5000 freight bill on machinery. The ma chinery for the most part is a 200-ton smelter, which will shortly be in place.
 The Snyder group, in the same neigh borhood, was sold a short time ago for s35,O0O, on which a payment of $6,OOO was made. The purchasers are Wash ington. D. C.. people. They are arrang- ing to crowd the development work along. There is already a good deal of work on the property, but it consists mostly of tunneling. Some extensive sinking $ now to be done. The same thing is going to take place on the Saddle mountain property, where most of the work previously doEe has been tunneling.
 There is an increase of activity on the Troy property. The pumps are in process of being let down to the 60O- foot level.
 Mir. Sewers says that one nice thing about that district is that there are no knockers in t, and there is no place for one to get a foothOld. All the prop critics are good, and that fact is known to every man in the region.

AMONG THE MYSTERIES OF THE
 BRAIN.

American brain surgery started in a Massachusetts stone quarry. An Irish Iaborer, tanning a crowbar into hole where part of a dynamite charge was lying in wait produced the logical re sult the crowbar entering the head at the side of the jaw and projecting a foot out beyond the vault Of the skull. The foreman notified the coroner; some one else sent for a doctor. The doctor got there first, removed the crOwbar and took the patient to the hospital, where, to the amazement of the entire profession, the man recovered Up to that time the brain substance had been regarded as prohibited territory. but the doctors reasoned, surely a surgeons s knife can go where a one-inch crowbar can pass without fatal results.-From Modern Surgery" by Samuel Hopkins Adams, in McClure's.

WHO WAS SHE?

A society woman of Topeka sur prised a Kansas City man very much a few days ago. The man is a woman's tailor. and the Topeka woman came here to have a dress fitted. When she reached the station to take her train for home she missed a valuable dia- mond surburst. Becoming excited, she rushed across the street into a room. which proved to be a saloon. and fin ally got the tailor shop on the phone. Before the tailor answered though, she felt the sunburst slip down her arm, inside of her dress. Just then the tailor came to the phone. Still excited, but realizing she must say something to him, the woman said:
 "Is that you, MT. Blank?"
 "It is,' was he reply.
 well" she said, I'll just thought I'd call you up and say 'good-bye.' - Kansas City Times.

Saturday while at the Rigmaiden- Cos

buck is one of the four.prong variety
and was so heavy that it took the

him on horse to carry into camp.
