Firing a Distre.. signal.

When a ship does not carry a can
non or mortar with which she can fire
distress signals, a metal socket on the
bridge or poop rail is used for that
purpose. Into the socket a decorating
rocket is placed, and inside this is a
firing tube. A lanyard is hooked on
to the tube, and man, by giving the
lanyard a sharp jerk, explOdes the
rocket. 1t contains a high explosive
and on leaving the rail- gives e loud
report and another on reaching its
highest altitude. Both reports are as
loud as the report Of a twelve FOUNDER
cannon The socket is slipped in the
rail at an angle to prevent the rocket
touching the rigging.

Photo Amateur. a study.

One of the most interesting places in
New York to study human nature is at
a counter in a photographers shop
where the customers come to get anna
teur photographs they have had devel-
oped and printed. The anxiety they
display TO get the products of their
''shots" would seem to be out Of all
proportion to the results, when you
catch a glimpse of them. and their dis
appointment if the prints are not ready
is almost as keen. apparently, as if
some important business transaction
had fallen through. And when they do
get the prints their faces are even
more interesting. The satisfaction Of
these amateur photographers over set
Of fairly good pictures is absolutely
idiOtic, and their dismay at a lot Of
failures is tragic. The frankness OF
these exhibitions is not the least inter
esting phase of the whole thing.-New

The people Of Varna, on the coast OF
the Black sea, in Bulgaria, have a sin
gular custom which they observe at
the feast of the Epiphany, which takes
place on Jan. 6. The clergy, both
Greeks and Bulgarians, accompanied
by an immense crowd, go to the sea-
shore, carrying with them q wooden
cross. The cross is thrown by the
clergy into the sea, and thereupOn the
strongest swimmers jump in after it
The best swimmer gets it, Of course,

to the shore and made to take three
successive plunges into the ley water.
They are then conducted home, where
their brides, accompanied by their rela-
tives and friends. have been awaiting
them in state. After this there is feast
ing and merry making. These singular
customs are believed TO have q Pagan
origin.

LONE MOUNTAIN

Wallace Mcneil hauled the first
shipment of ore from the Richards
McNeill lease on the Argenta to Mil
ler's this week, but being less than a
carload, it was sent on to the Reno
sampler. Included in the Shipment
was a trial lot from the Majestic group,
east of the Argenta, to determine the
average selling value of this ore.
During the holidays much OF the
work in the district was suspended, bn.
after the first of the new year several
properties will resume work, and the

Page brothers, the deaf-mute pros

recorder, are meeting with deserved
success. They have opened up a new
ledge which pans free gold clear across,
and have let several leases.

FROM NEIGHBORING CAMPS
pic pINE,s RICH D

Some years since Big Pine, in lnyo
county, California, was the scene u
much mining activity but for several
years past it has relied almost entireiv
on the farming community for its sup
port. and while this has kept the towa
up fairly well, no doubt the great MIN
ing operations now contemplated in
that section will materially advance its
commercial importance.
Big Pine has always been a real
good town and is the natural center OF
a rich mining region and when the
eastern slope Of the great Sierra range
commences to produce its wealth OF
silver and gold, the enterprising peo-
pie of this place will again enjoy the
activity as of yore.
No doubt whatever exists In the
minds of mining men that there are
enormous deposits of the precious
metals hidden in the great mineral
zone trending with the Sierras and
only a short distance above Big Pine
and so strongly defined on the surface
that it can easily be traced for more
than 100 miles in length and capital Is
only necessary to disclose great values
as is positively demonstrated by the
limited amount of work already done
The surrounding conditions are ex'
ceedingly favorable for large mining
enterprises for the ore bodies are very
large. the grade is good and there Is
ample wood and water; with the vaii,V
ready to furnish all necessary produce
for domestic needs and the climatic
conditions favor work at all seasons OF
the year.-Reno Journal.

MANHATTAN

Interest in the Manhattan district
continues to increase daily and the
rush to the camp is assuming the pro-
portions of the stampede to Goldheld
in the early days of that camp.
Manhattan is less than six months old,
but already nearly one hundred leases
are being worked and over fifty are in
good ore, and most Of these are n
shipping ore, assaying from 500 .
$500 a ton. The new year will see the
commencement of shipments from sew
eraI of these leases, which are scattered
over an area nearly two miles wide by
one mile long.
At present local interest is centerei
on Union No. 9 ard Stray Dog claims
on one side of the town, and the Mus
tang and Wild Horse claims on the
other side. Union No. 9 was leased by
Charles l.. Cole and William Sinclair,
who gave twenty subleases, reserving
No. Is, from which they have taken
twenty ions of high grade ore and are
now mining about twenty sacks a day
from a 5O-foot shaft. No. IA is owned
by j. W. Briggs, who started work this
week. No. Is is being worked by the
Manhattan Dexter company, the own
ers of the claim, and Nos. 9 to IL, in
elusive, were bought by their repre-
sentatives, A. d. Nash, this week, on
account of their splendid showing.
The Stray Dog was bought by s. E.
Vermilyea, and from the showing IN
the Hudson and other leases promises
to be a bonanza.
The ore on the Mustang and Wild
Horse was discovered only about ten
DAYS since, but the claims are covered
by leases and sacking of ore has al
ready commenced.
A four-horse stage leaves the Pioneer
stables in Tonopah three days a week.
Real estate in Manhattan has jumped
from 5000 a lot last week to $500 asked
for the same lots this eek.-Tonopah

HIS LAST CENT

One night recently a rather seedy
looking man stepped up to the bar IN
a saloon and said to the bartender:
"You wouldn't take a mans last
cent for a drink of whisky, would
youi"
"Anybody who gets a drink here
pays for it," said the bartender.
"You'd take a mans las: centf'
"You bet l would"
The other sighed. "Well, I've got
to have the whisky" he said. He was
served with the drink. "You meant it
when you said you'd take a mans last
cent9'' he asked.
"Sure,'' said the bartender.
The other pitched a penny onto the
bar. "Well, there it is" he said, ard
out he went.
