Gift of Hammond.

John Hays Hammond, now OF New
York, but formerly OF California, has
made a present to the citizens of San
Francisco and the miners of California
of a special library to consist OF mining
and m~etallurgical works. During his
recent visit to San Francisco he gave to
Charles Ct. Yale of the United States
geological survey a check for $4,000 to
be expended for the purchase Of books,
bookcases and whatever else might be
necessary for this library. He made no
particular conditions, his intention be-
ing TO establish such a library of techni-
cal works as will be useful to the pro-
fession mining engineer, superintendent,
the metallurgist and the ordinary every
day practical miner. There will, there
fore, be both advanced and elementary
works, and those who use them, have
thus far made no objection to the ele-
mentary works or to those who use
them. This kind of secondary educa-
ton goes in California, without verbal
or written friction.

A woman had picked il up to throw at
her low, but seeing the color and weight
she thought better of it and took it
home. Another romantic little story,
not without its pathos, is told of the ia
nous Oliver Martin nugget. Martin
was a miner whose partner died. He was
digging the grave in a sandy spot at the
base of a cliff when his pick struck
something hard. 1t proved to be a mug

The famous silver mines at Zacatecas,
Mexico, from which $500, 900, 900 worth
of ore has been taken, were discovered
in a remarkable way. An Indian in pur-
suit of an antelope, was climbing the
steep slope of a hill and seized a bush to
help himself up. The plant gave way
and revealed beneath the roots rock
which proved to be almost pure silver.
One of the richest mines in the Antilles
was the outcome of a rabbit chase. An
Indian was hunting rabbits one day,
when one of them was chased by his dog
into a hole in the hillside. The Indian
started to dig the rabbit out, but before
he had shoveled a half dozen spadefuls
of earth found, to his delight, that he
was literally shoveling silver. San

Great Mines Discovered by Accident.

Most Of the great gold fields have been
discovered entirely through accident
The romances connected with their dis
covery have been brought to mind by
the story which comes from England of
the young mar on his way from New
Zealand with a fortune which came to
him by accident. He is the son of a bill
poster who found his way to New Zea-
land and worked in the mines. One
day, while standing on the edge of a
creek, he picked up a stone to throw at
a bird. 4 glance at the missile showed
him that it was gold. The ston proved
to be a clew to a rich mine, of which the
young man sold his share for 1915, 900.
The largest nugget ever found in Cali
fornia was discovered by a half-breed
Indian in a brook where he was washing
his overalls. 1t was almost pure gold
and weighed over 70 pounds. The Adams
Express company paid 81 400 for it.

Japanese Humor.

Here is a typical japanese humorous
story:
A quack doctor had prescribed the
wrong medicine for the only son of a
certain family, with the result that the
boy had died. The parents determined
to have revenge. So they sued the doc
tor in a court of law.
The affair was eventually patched up,
the quack giving the bereaved parents
his own son in return for the one he had
killed. Not long after this the doctor
heard a loud knocking at his door one
night. On going to the door he was in
formed that the wife of one his neigh
bors was dangerously i'll, and that his
presence was required at once. Turning
to his wife, he said: This requires
consideration, my dear. There is no
knowing but that it may end in their
taking you from me."-Chicago News.

Prospecting.

The springtime is near. The SHOWS
will soon be gone. The prospecting
campaign will soon open. The festive
donkey will be in demand. He is good
company in the mountains. He is an
interesting cuss. Always patient under
a load of cooking utensil and grub. AT
night he is somewhat musical. In the
morning if you don't give him a long
rope tied to a tree, you will probably
find him a few miles away. But we al
ways preferred him to a mule.
We once had a pack of twenty-five OF
these interesting animals, packing ore
from above timber line to a smelter.
Their load Was 800 pounds of ore. 1t
was a scramble, when in sight of the
smelter, to be first to unload. Then
they started to Craze and in the morn
ing not one was in sight. 1t took hall
the day to corral them.
One of these donkeys had traversed
the trails of Colorado for twenty-five
years, more or less. He was evidently
old and certainly shaggy. One day old
Pinto slipped from the trail, rolling
over and over down the steep mountain
side with his load securely strapped on.
1t seemed t o be the last of Pinto. But
soon ne was rlgnt sue up, anu Caihe
back up to the trail as though nothing
had happened. At night he came as
usual to the cabin for the regular biscuit
the children gave him. Treat the
donkey we'll and he is lovable.

PARIS FASHIONS
,encs of The Star.

PARIS, September 2, zoos.
On these lovely September days smart
people are making tours en- auto from one
attractive chateau to another for weekend
visits or possibly for q short stay for the
shooting. Indeed. since 1t has become an
accepted condition of social life to own
motor car distance seems to have been
abridged and a matter of going fifty miles
or 50 for a mere call Is considered IN the
light of pleasure and not a dull penance
done for duty's sake. This exchange of
calls differs little from the ordinary town
function-just the usual gossip OF a racy
order, a cup of tea and a gay goodbye.
Popular hostesses fix upon n day OF the
week on which to receive their friends,
and, delightful though madame may be as
chatelaine. she does not regard the fiatter
ing response of her guests to her bidding
as a tribute to her charms half as much as
she does to the actual fact of the craze for
movement and speeding which. since the
advent of the auto, has become a part of
mondaine life. One of the charming hos
tesses near by Paris is Nine. Edmond

points to the princess robe as the dominant
note in autumn fashions but 1t will be con-
fined to evening and house wear, not being
adapted to outdoor display unless worn
with a short bolero. which leaves the waist
line In evidence. For street wear the long
basqued coat bids fair to be the height of
the mode, either full and fluted or fitted.
Indeed, everything in tailored styles inclines
to close-fittlng coats, unless one makes an
exception of the smart empire, which Is so
fetching when worn by petite femininity.

Costly trimmings

~ - 80
How do you make your dresses look so
SMART asked a young bride OF an ac-
quaintance who was fashioning blouses for
fall wear. my sister-in-law has all of her
clothes made by a fashionable dressmaker.
but they haven't at all the chic, elegant
look that your frocks always have"
The clever needlewoman smiled Her
dressmaker probably has not learned
Partisan trick" she replied. TITS all in
making the most of your trimmings. my
dear; that is, making a small amount OF
trimming seem to cover half the dress.
And if you wish the trimming to be unique.
you have to pay a good price for it. never
use anything that is cheap, but buy lit
tie and spread It out to appear like a great
deal
For instance, that lace evening dress l
wore the other night. The trimming con-
sisted of only two yards Of heavy cream
lace. In the piece. the lace was a string
of garlands with a fantastic star resting
inside OF EACH and a queer hour-glass hg-
ure joining the garlands.
II cut the figures away from each other
and scattered them carelessly over the net
foundation. Then 1 fastened each section
on which the lace figures had lodged to a
paper and fagoted the medallion into place,
cutting away the net from underneath
when / had finished. If / had bought sep
arate medallions instead of lace by the
yard the trimming would have cost three
times much and would not have been
nearly so unusual.
Much the same idea was carried out
with my sisters dress. We applied chiffon
medallions showing tiny ribbon rosebuds
to a silk muslin frock. There was one on
each sleeve. and the remainder OF the half
dozen trimmed bodice and skirt. Outlin-
ing the fagoted edges of the medallions
were rows of French knots in the same
delicate shadings as the rosebuds.
For my net or lace blouses 1 buy all
over lace or embroidery which has zig gag
patterns running through IL. These scrolls
or fantastic lines / cut out. and when they
are inset on a sheer waist you couldn't
tell Ii from q $35 handmade crea ton from
Blank & Dash's.
There are greater possibilities, OF course,
In the trimmings for thin dresses than for
cloth costumes. ut~god braid Is going to
be the rage this fall, and 1t can be worked
up most artfstfcally. Just wait until you
see my suit that Is being sent home from
the tailor'si 1t Is the simplest kind of a
rough serge trimmed with narrow blue
braid running In two parallel lines, with the
Intervening space embroidered In dull gold
thread. but the stunning part il the three
long. scimitar-shaped ornaments which 4
bought at an oriental shop. They are set
on just above a deep cavalier cum on each
shawl collar at the back of the neck, Civ
ing the effect of having been embroidered
right into the material.
II don't wear frocks quite handsome
enough for trimmings OF beaded and span
gled passementeries. but never pass a
counter where they are displayed without
longing to buy just few inches Delicate
touches with these short lengths of beauti-
ful trimming make dress look exactly as

are another fad of the decorator. These
have passe partout frames and are so deli
cately tinted that they resemble hand paint
ings
Even more novel are the spiced-wood
articles for dressing table. Picture frames
built from the cracked bark of a tree have
white Alpine blooms cut from satin wood
ornamenting one corner. A small head
carved out of black wood is perched in the
opposite corner. Little boxes of the same
bark have many drawers like a dolls bu-
reau.-The drawers are concealed by In
genlous folding doors that slip back out
of sight by touch of the hands. The
spiced wood that finishes the edges of all
these articles has a delightfully."- sharp
odor such as is obtained by mixing cloves,
cinnamon. etc, in vinegar. Many different
kinds of trinket boxes In this same wood
have covers of delicately inlaid patterns.
