A dispatch from San Francisco says: E. H. Hartman, Epes Randolph, and their associates, who are interested in the Arizona & Colorado Railway en- terprises, which will eventually be- come a Southern Pacific branch, have bought a vast coal land area near Du- rango, Colo, and have just paid down part of the purchase price. It is said it will require 2,OOO,OOOs to complete the deal. The Porter Fuel Company and the Boston Coal & Fuel Company's coal lands are included in the purchase; also thousands of adjoining acres of coal land. Surveyors have been at work for the past few weeks between Durango, Pueblo and Clifton, Arizona, on the line of the Southern Pacific, which means that the company pro poses to get into Pueblo for the bene- fit of eastern traffic and for share of the business of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company.

Pipe Line Across Isthmus of Panama

Pittsburg capitalists are preparing to lay pipe line across the Isthmus of Panama for the purpose of trans porting California oil by a cheaper and quicker route to New York. Mil lions are in the project, and the Pitts burg end is being handled by Thomas Calvin, who is power in the National Tube Company, and who will go to the perintend the work now under con- sideration. The idea is to bring the California oil by tank steamer from the California coast to the isthmus, pipe it from the vessels across the isthmus to other steamers waiting there, and then to New York and oth- CT coast points. By this the promot- CTS hope to reach New York three weeks earlier than they would by go- ing around the Horn. It has been but short time since a mysterious order for fifty miles of eight-inch pipe for the Isthmus of Panama was placed in  Pittsburg. It was not known until recently that it was for the s;heme, but Thomas Calvin admits such is the case.
 There has been some discussion as to whether or not the scheme will pay in the face of the isthmian canal go- ing through, and it has been suggested that it would be better to wait until the canal was finished, but one con- nected with the scheme said that it will take but few months to get the pipe line running across the isthmus, while the isthmian canal will not be ready for fifteen years at the earliest.

A bill has recently been introduced in congress providing for the location, development and operation of mineral lands on Indian reservations. This bill states that on some of the existing Indian reservations there are large and valuable deposits of copper, gold and other ores, and that as the Indians make no use of these mineral resources and have no disposition to develop them, they should be thrown open, to prospectors who may make locations thereon.-Silver Belt.

The purchasers will capitalize the property at 5000, O,OOOs, and expend up- ward of 1,5OO,OOOs in installing new machinery and generally undermining the plants. The former owners worked the mines with machinery and meth- ods 200 years ago, yet reaped a hand some profit every year. The mines are among the oldest in Mexico.
 The Ventura Corporation, Limited, attained prominence through floating the Dolores Copper mines, which are, at present, paying large dividends.
Mohave County miner., 1906-02-24

The Homestake Mining Company, the pride of the Black Hills. has de- clared its 385th dividend to its share holders, amounting to log, ,200S. Divi- dends have been paid constantly for the last 26 years and during this time the company has never passed a divi- dend. Up to last March, with the ex- ception of some extra dividends which had been declared, D cents was the amount share. At that time the div idend was increased to 50 cents a share, where it has remained ever since. The extra dividends, which were D cents a share, were declared from about September, 1897, until some time in 1899. Up to the present month the Homestake company has paid out in dividends II, ,333, ,35OS. The magni- tude of this profit will be realized when one stops to think that at the same time dividends were being paid, vast and extensive improvements were OChS constantly mdue. A water SyS- tenn at cost of million dollars was installed, the stamp mills have been increased to double their capacity, two of the largest cyanide plants in the world have been built, the Ellison hoist, one of the largest hoists, equip ped with the most expensive machin- cry, has been put in operation, and the Ellison shaft sunk to a depth of l,2OO feet. The company is at present engaged in building a slime plant in Deadwood for the purpose of treating the shines, which up to this time have always escaped. This plant will cost about half million dollars. The Homestake is distinctly a low grade proposition, the ore which is being worked at present averaging about 3.13S ton. About 1000 tons of ore are milled day and 1000 stamps are constantly dropping.-Mining World.

American Mines the Wonder of the
 World.

The conditions of mining in America are the wonder of the industrial world, says Gibson Wilets in Leslie's Weekly. The captains of industry in Europe re- gard the achievements and the rela- tions of American operators and min- CTS with undisguised amazement. They marvel at the apparently irreconcil- able facts that, although miners are paid higher wages in America than in any other country, the American min erals and metals are produced at a lower cost per ton or measure than in any country in Europe. To the gen. jus of American engineering is due this happy combination of results. The American miner is, indeed, more for tunate than his fellow-workers of oth- CT lands; and the American mine op- orator is, indeed, more successful than others in the same field of endeavor elsewhere.
 Producing at the lowest cost, it is lIldI OuI hluCS SllOh the largest profit; only natural that out of small investments in mines many great fortunes have been made. For years comparatively poor men have been giving their accumulated savings, as well as their energy and brains, to the exploitation of mines which have in turn enriched them. It is matter of record that most of the great mining consultations were started by small investors. The stock is usually put upon the market, where it is purchased by hundreds of indi- viduals, each of whom receives his profits from the investment according to the proportion of stock he holds. It has happened, not once or twice, but many, many times, that small in- vestments in mining stocks have made millionaires of people who had pre- viously been struggling along on only a meager competence.

The Salton Loop.

After an expenditure of over half a million dollars, and loss of many thousands in ruined equipments, the Southern Pacific has finally completed the loop around Salton Sea. The new track lengthens the main line a dis tance of about twenty miles, and pre- cluded any further danger from the ravages of the inland sink. The new track is thirty-nine miles long and ex- tends from Mecca to Volcano, in South ern California, forming a loop shaped like the letter ''U" to the south of the Salton basin.
 All trains, both freight and passen- ger, run over the new track, and the shOo-hy, which was temporarily built along the edge of the basin, and has been used as the main track for sev- eral months, is abandoned. During the past few weeks the waters of the sink have been steadily rising until they have softened the track bed and were threatening to wipe out the shoo-fy track. The original track which ran along the side of the Salton basin, and was overhowed upon the first big rise of the sea, had to be entirely aban- dOned and thousands of dollars were thus lost.-Yuma Sun.

SERG'T BROWNEY'S
SISTER IN CAMP.
A Story That Did Not Turn Out
at Ali as Might Have Been
Expected.
b. TIIOS. s. HOPKINS.

Long years they be since We were
boys in blue. but l suppose there are
times with all of us when we be-
come reminiscent, and our minds go
back to those days of '61-'65.
Such mood is upon me this Wild
night, as L sit before the fireplace,
smoking my cigar, while the rain beats
upon the windowpanes and the wind
thrashes the trees and roars down the
chimney.
Those We're days of hardship and
suffering, but withal there were times
of merrment and pleasure and keen
excitement, that served to relieve the
strain of monotony which at times bore
upon us heavily.
The duh routine of drill and guard
duty was broken by frequent details
on the picket line and rough sports
in camp. Wrestling matches. foot
races and card-playing We're favorite
amusements. Pitching handful of
loose cartridges down a neighbor' $
chimney. stealing a hot breakfast from
n man when his back was turned send
ing one 4 fictitious command to ap-
pear at the Coloners quarters instant
ly, or stealthily removing the breech-
pin from 4 comrades gun just before
inspection were a few of the many
practical jokes which were keenly rel
ished by every one except the victims.
Sometimes a luckleSs rabbit ventured
into camp, and every man in the regi-
ment would turn out and with fierce
NAL hither and yon until the poor
yells pursue the terror-stricken ami
creature was either captured or fright
ened 10 death. The sudden appear
ance of detachment O. the enemy
would not have caused half the COM
motion.
In these pastimes we forgot much
of privation and suffering. which were
our inevitable lot. But we still had
abundant leisure in which to remem-
ber our mothers and sisters and sweet
hearts, whom We had left at home.
They now seemed a thousand times
dearer TO us than before our long sep
aration. In secret our thoughts were
OF them, and deeply did we feel the
might, as we did, write and receive
letters with great frequency, but they
did not satisfy the longings of loving
hearts. No ladies had ever visited our
camp, and the majority of US had
neither spoken with nor had we seen
one for nearly year. The very sight
of one of the gentler sex would have
| been hailed with the same unbounded
delight that the early California min
ers exhibited after their years of exile
from civilization.
One afternoon during the last week
in February, 1863, I was summing my
self in front of our little log hut, and
wondering why civilized people en-,
jOyed killing each other, when l heard
a shout, and looking in the direction
OF the regimental headquarters, which
was on the other side of the parad de
ground, I saw Col. Charles'S little or
derly, Flint, running toward our quar-
ters with all his speed. Flint was

stepped out into the night the cold air
was refreshing to my hot temples. and,
after few turns around the parade
ground, l began TO regain my senses.
Everything around me was sugges-
tive OF war. The sound of the sentry
walking his beat; the sharp, quick
challenge, Halt, Who comes there?";
the jangle OF accouterments as the re-
lief marched by: the rows upon rows
of silent tents, all spoke of battles that
had been and that were to be. But /
cared naught then for war. My blood
was afiame, and my thoughts were on
