There was an absolute cessation OF
operation throughout the whole

Thanksgiving at SantuC.

Santuc, Nov. 3o.-The town
was almost as quiet as a grave
yard Thanksgiving day. as nearly
everybody had "vamoosed the
ranch, gone off. do not know
whether nearly everybody was
hunting or not, but Judging from
the sounds from the fields. they
were. There were no big affairs
because Of it. do not know if
many gave thanks.-I never heard
them,-but no doubt some did. and
on the other hand no doubt many
did not. | do not suppose many
know if there is One to give thanks
to, or that they know how. Per-
haps they have never given thanks.
There may be some who think
thanks ought to be given them.
There were few in town. even to
get drunk. if anybody. anywhere,
did get. drunk.

FIVE Of the heavenly orbs were in an
interesting position to our earth. Per-
haps a crude smile would fix the ideas
of the general reader. Suppose a large
clock dial were, placed on the street
with II o'clock to the north. A man
with six cords takes his place in the
center. Six others take a cord each
and place themselves as follows: One
at IL O'Clock, one at 2 O'Clock, one at
A O'Clock and so on round the dial. 1t
is evident that if Zach of these six
men pulled his cord with an equal
force the man in the center would not
be much disturbed. If, however, the
men all shifted round and grouped
themselves say between 6 O'Clock and
9 O'Clock the man in the center would
soon become poturbed.
eff the man in the center represents
the earth, then the sun, noon and three
of the planets acted like the six men.
OF course we Know that the attrac-
tions vary as the masses and inversely
as the squares of their distances which
are very wide, so that our example
must not be carpingly criticized. At
a certain time in May, Venus, Mars
and Jupiter will occupy such a small
part of the sky that disc three times
the size of the moon woui~ cover all
three of them. If we look on a map
of the world we find that Japan,
suvirs, Lisbon and San Francisco are
roughly the same distance north OF
tbs equator. They are also all on the
seabcard. Docs this suggest a zone of
least re~sistence?'

FAIRvIEw, May 21.-This camp
continues to be the scene of unusual
activity land tn advent during the past
two weeAs of large capital has given
mining operations a zest which por-
tends well for the future of the camp.
The town now numbers about 600 Ieo-

Hazen and Fairview is taxed to its
fullest capacity, and the road is iines
with freight teams heavily laden bear
ing supplies for Fairview.
One Of the largest deals in the his

Goldfeld purchased from b. Z. Dart

which adioins the original discovery
and Is admittedly n of the richest
properties in the district. Some idea
Of the extent of the ore deposits of this
camp and indications of ~permanency
can be gained from the fact that the
ledge which crosses the Boulder claim
has been proven for a distance of 300
feet and carries Off it's entire ! ngt T
values better than $3.50 a ton. In his
rich gold bearing ledge there is a
streak which varies in width from
twelve to eighteen inches and AVERAGES
well upwards of $4,000 a ton. The
formation is identical with that of the
mines of Tonopah, and the ore closely
resembles that coming from the Tono-
pah Extension mine.

''This must be a very sensitive age.
An affidavit made by Miss Corelll
stated hat she went TO Stratford-on-
Avon for the purpose of obtaining
privacy. She had never consented to
the publication of the cards, which
were calculated to expose her to unjust
contempt in relation to her private
life and prejudice her in her profession

take time to consider his decision, as
the point raised had never been de-

QUESTIONS THE IDENTITY
OF PAUL JONES' REMAINS.

GENEVA May 2l.-A diplomat who
has been staying for some time here
in Switzerland has succeeded in caus
ing no end of discussion in continental
Europe by again raising a quest on aa
to the identity of the remains of Paul
Jones. Among other things, he said:
"It was proved long ago that the
tomb of Paui Jones disappeared when
houses were built ON that portion Of
the Protestant cemetery in Paris where
the great American sailor was buried.
1t was also proved that the only Jones
whose coffin could still exist in another
part of the same graveyard was ono
William Jones, groom to a British am
bassador at the beginning of the revo-
luton.
Against the protests of the Comite
des Travaux Historiques du yiex Paris,
but through powerful American infu-
ences and to please the American am
bassador. William has become fanl
Jones and great honors have been raid
to the remains at Annapolis.
Surely, under the circumstances, it
should have been the British and not
the French ambassador who should
have handed over those remains to the
American authorities, and expressed
qualification for the honors paid to the
deceased British groom"

MARIE CORELLI OBJECTS
TO POSTAL CARICATURES.

LONDON, May 21.-Miss Marie CO.
'"relli's objections to picture post cards
have been argued in the London courts,
application for an injunction being
made to Justice Swifton Eady in the

Miss Corelli, which, she c~ontended,
were calculated to expose her to ridi-
cule and contempt.
In the early part of this month,
said Eve K. Ec, who represented Miss
Corelli, "a Shakespearean festival WIS
arranged at Standardization to com-
mcmorate what is alleged to be the
birthday of a gentleman called William
Shakespeare.
In anticipation of the large number
of persons who would resort to Strat-
ford-on-Avon on that occasion, and
who would desire to become acquainted
with the notable persons other than
Shakespeare connected with the place,
Mr.. Wall. without leave or license
from Miss Corelli, produced a set of
picture post cards which were headed:

and His Contemporaries which looked
as If it was suggested that Miss Corelli
was a contemporary of Shakespeare.
Mr.. Eve then proceeded to outline
the statements made in the defense.
One member of the firm in question
said he was an artist. cit will be
necessary that we have that on oath,'
said Mr.. Eve. because from two ami
mails one of the cards supposed to be
nobody would conclude that he
was what he described himself to be-
lie also said he was present on an
occasion when Miss Corelli presented a
cup to the Stratford-on-Avon Boat
Club. The card was the best repre-
sentation he could give from recoll =
tion of the features of the lady who
was 50 gracefully presented the cup.
He also stated that the lady some
times went on the Avon in a gondola
and the eahrd depicted the sort Of
thing that went on last summer.
Another card entitled ssSweets to the
Sweet showed q pony carriage out

imaginary. Miss Corelli had no dogs.
"This is the case,'' concluded Mr..
Eve, (which win have to be tried as to
the right of the person, not only to
her own features, but to features that
do not belong to her,
Scott Thomson then took up the ID
vocacy Of Miss Corelli's contention,
and asked the Judge to say that the
postcards were libelous.
because the features on the cards
are unlike, must they necessarily be
