Heat of Living Forms.

\ growing idea is that all living forms even plants, fishes and insects--must develop some bodily heat, even though the amount be- very small. Bringing together various observations, French entomologist, A. Acloque, finds that a thermometer thrust into an anthill has shown rise of five degrees, that bee hives are warmer than the outer air in winter, and that when the bees were agitated the hives have grown SO hot as to melt the wax. One observer has noted that creatures giving off the least heat have greatest resistance. Cater pillars may be frozen to brittleness and may exist for weeks in cake of ice, yet may become active again on thawing out. On the other hand, insects may live in intense heat, termites and others in Brazil and elsewhere being active on the burning sand under a vertical sum- This resistance to great heat and cold is not understood, and is a fact, it may be added, that should be kept in mind by those who speculate on the possible life of other worlds s-Exchange

Thoughtfulness of a King.

On q certain recent gala night at the Brussels grand opera house King Leopold was seated in private box with rather swell member of the demi monde.
 Jean de Reske was singing with his matchless tenor voice, when the lady with the king caused sensation by joining in the chorus in a shrill treble The lady in question had d large-szed jag on.
 Rather than have the pleasure of the audience marred by his companion the king led the bsdy out, summoned hack and with her drove off into the night.
 It is little acts of thoughtfulness like this that have made King Leopold the most popular and best loved monarch of Europe.-Paris Figaro.

BENEFITS OF ORGANIZATION
Miners Have Legal Right to Adopt Rules to
 Regulate Their Own Affairs.

III tue FalTDdIlkS NeWS ol Scpt. Io appeared the following regarding the benefits miners might secure through organization. Since then brief tele- gram has been seen stating that the miners of that district have effected thorough organization:
 Why not an association of miners? This is question often asked miners by one another. J. D. Fields, an old-time miner, says an association for the Panama is an absolute necessity, and he unfolds some of the benefits which would accrue to the miners from such an association.
 ''ln the first place." said he, ''the camp has lately been torn up over the question of what constitutes dis covery. The finding of gold or any other valuable mineral not contained in rock in place makes a placer discovery. That is all that is necessary to fulfill the re- quirements of the mining law.
 Quantity is not a necessary consider ation. All that it has to be is valuable
 
 mineral It has been held by the su- preme court that after gold has been found conditions must be such as to warrant a prudent man to expend his time and labor on the ground before he segregates it from the public domain. These conditions will vary in all of the different districts where gold is found. To meet these conditions congress has enacted law granting to the miners the privilege of making of laws governing nad restricting the stalking of mining ground and water rights.
 ''For this purpose miners associate themselves together, define q mining district, and make local regulations that shall govern the miners in acquiring title to the ground. This the miners neglected to do in this district. Miners are the only class in the United States that congress has put on the same foot ing with the legislatures by granting them the power to make their own laws for local self government in conducting lUtlG buSiHtSs' oihi boditS of trade for self interest and protection. Through this board of trade you can reach all of the merchants when it Is necessary to take public action on any question affecting the interests of the town. Lawyers form bar associations for the same purpose. Neither of these bodies has any lawmaking power, but the influence of the one pr the Oth9r k felt in the disposition of public questions affecting the community in which their organization exists. The miners, who are the producers of this community, without whom the community could not exist, and who have no law making power to pass laws to regulate their own business, when they have a point in dispute go tu the members of the bar association ur to the board of trade and ask them to settle their disputes. This causes l0-s of time and money, not only to themselves, but to the community as whole. The miners could te more effective in an organization 0i their own. They ruall elect bsard uf arbitration from among this assssiation. hrfsrv whom they Couli lay all oi their dts. patss and have thsm settlssl. withoue

Yukon Valley news., 1905-11-29


 "Now, it looks to me that such an association is an actual necessity in this district, so that the miners could on public questions use their united strength the same as other classes of citizens do Having the privilege of making laws, they could say how much, or how little, should be found to constitute discov- cry, and whether man must in so many days make such discovery valid by sinking one or a dozen holes to bed- rock, as the case might be. The miner has the privilege of saving how the money that is to be spent on annual assessment work shall be spent. If the necessity exists for good road to creek on which his property is situated, the miner, as an association, can agree benefit a mans claim more than if he sank hole ten or fifteen feet in the muck only to let it cave in again with the intention of repeating the same op- eratlon from year to year, and also the same intention of abusing the officials whose duty it is to keep the road up and who can not do so for lack of funds |; whereas the remedy for these bad roads lies within the power of the miners themselves.
 Another thing: To prevent wild eating of the ground in the district, it is the duty and privilege also of the miners to pass d law requiring so much work to be done upon the ground before it is placed upon the records as bona tide mining location. The mining laws of the United States speak of miners meetings and state legislatures on par in regard to making local regulations for the government of their state or district The legislatures of the states in which mining Is extensively carried on have found it q necessity to pass such d law so as to keep the mining ground out of the hands of corporations, speculators and other wildcatters of the same stripe
 
 all the miners in the district, this mean ing claim owners, prospectors and other men who gain their livelihood by mining, and an association effected. At the present time conventions of miners are being held in the different states for the purpose of bringing pressure to bear at Washington, D. C., for the purpose of having a department of mines made part of the government, the head oi which shall bc member of the cabinet of the president. This will give the miners word in the conducting uf pub lie affairs of the government the same as the farmers have had. What are the miners of Alaska doing toward gaining this desirable end? They are doing nothing. In time of distress, when it is necessary to take united action to be- stow public charity and relieve this iis- tress, to reach the miners it is neces-ary to start different men out in different directions tu solicit subscriptions for the aisl "f tho-e in distress. Ii they had an as-oeiatiun this wouk not te the ease. and they eouhl extend their asSistancc immediately ansl in su -ahstantinl a manner that the recipients woahl have cause to remember thcm with isarttelt
