"NNh@
New Position Decided Upon.
According TO the new order Of things
n position has been decided upon
that renders anything like a

This new position which has been
officially declared correct" for all
round dances. compels the gentleman

And that's the secret-don't get too
close.
Heretofore the arm of the gentleman
was "nrmly'' around the lady's waist
and that may have had some effect
upon the popularity OF that good old
dance.
The waltz time" originally written
in a.. hut which has gradually slipped
into '2s' and "I-ii-ii." is to be strictly
adhered to-. and the waltz ls to be
faster by ut least half n measure.

The Ricilland Gold Mining CO,

The following reference to the r.
Ct. NJ, Cos property we take from
the Nevada City jCal,l Daily Morn,
ing Union:
al is pleasing TO note that the
main tunnel of tile Richland Gold
Mining Company is about into the
channel, Since last May the prop
erty now held by this company has
been developed in a most painstsk
ing manner with the view Of work
ing it on a large scale. The main
gangway is six feet high and six
feet wide at the bottom, with three
and one-half-foot caps, in the clear,
SO that the trains of cars can be
handled either by mules or electric
engines.
The tunnel is now in over $50 It
and has passed the center of the
rim and the management expects
daily to strike gravel. Several
heavy flows of water were recently
encountered which, with the change
in the character OF the bedrock, in
dlcates the close proximity Of the
channel.
The company,s holdings include
over 5000 feet Of the famous Man
zanita channel, extending from the
Indian camp through the lands OF
Richards, Cleveland, Ragon, Steph-
ems and Sergeant.
Preparations are in progress at
Stephens place for extending his
tunnel into the main channel, SO
that the production can be increas.
ed to the maximum.
The tive-stamp mill at this point
is in excellent condition and the
stamps will shortly be dropping on
the pay dirt that is already in sight
there, Nearly all Of this stretch OF
ground is patented and paid for,

The company has h,I eight mru
on its pay roll for some time and
as soon as there is room a large
crew will be given employment. As
the mine is SO near the county seat
good miners are anxious to work
there, and operations M lie car
RED on without Interruption the
year around. The personnel Of
the company guarantees intelligent

FREE HOMES IN MONTANA.
TWeDty-seVen Townships of Government
Land Opened to Filing,

Twenty-sepen Townships of Government
Land Opened to Filing,
Iwenty-seven townships, comprising
622,081 acres in the vicinity of gilbert
son, Montana, have recently been open
ed to fling by the government. Some
Of these townships lie along the Great
Northern Railway and others lie along
the Big Muddy River. Only the best
townships out Of a vast area 80 miles
square were surveyed. Much of this
land is in Paradise Valley contiguous
to the Great Northern Railway, along
the Missouri river and the Big Muddy
Valley, but is fine rolling prairie or Ia
bic land back from the river. This
land Is situated within from 10 to 30
miles of the Dakota and Montana state
line, Cnlbertson being only 80 miles
from BEford, N. D.
The ranchers and farmers have raised
good crops during the past three years,
previous to which stock. raising was the
only industry. Prof. T.. B.. Linfield,
of the Montana Experiment Station,
says nc better land exists anywhere
than there is in the vicinity of gilbert
son. Crops are grown here as follows:
Oats so to 80 bushels to the acre and 40
pounds to the bushel. Flax 8 to 16
bushels to the acre; wheat 10 to 35 bus.
barley 30 to 40 bushels, and speltz go to
49,
so bushels to the acre. These crops
have been raised on new breaking, and
as the ground becomes better cultivated
the crops will be better. The soil is a
black loan, averaging u inches in
depth, with clay subsoil. There is.suf-
icient moisture here to raise a good
crop every year without irrigation.
