Of work was the lack Of properly
trained teachers. This difficulty has
been most strongly felt in the smaller
high schools, where lack Of funds pre-
vented the appointment of a special
instructor and made it necessary to
combine this subject with the teaching
of other branches.
Mr.. Flather has arranged systematic
courses in woodwork and iron work
especially for teachers and prospective
teachers in the smaller schools. 1t is
proposed in the University summer
school to make these opportunities as
available as possible to the teachers OF
Minnesota. In the new college of edu
cation at the state university d spe
cial course in manual training will be
arranged for students who are at the
same time preparing to give instruction
in other branches.
In connection with work in manua
training in the summer school Professo
Flather has provided engineering
courses in carpentry and pattern WORT
and in machine work and tool construc
ton, which make it possible for gradl
ates Of the Minneapolis and st. Pau
high schools to do considerable par

Meanwhile there is a separate endea-
vor in which prominent men of the city
are particularly interested-there must
be an endowment fund secured to fur
nish the running expenses of Pillsbury
House, and the men are out to raise it.
Governor Johnson may be said, in a
sense, to be at the head of the move
ment, since he is going to make an ad-
dress next Friday evening at Plymouth
church for Pillsbury House and all that
it represents in the neighborhood IN
which it is to be situated.
Governor Johnson s address will be a
part of an entertainment for which
preparations have been in progress some
weeks. The board of managers OF
Bethel settlement have chosen this
means Of giving everyone in the city
who are interested in settlement work
an opportunity to lend helping hand.
With the cooperation of Governor
johnson and group of prominent mu-
sicians program that should be bril-

PASSING OF THE "sILvER DOL.
LAR SALOON.

New York, March 24-The old
saloon Of Silver Dollar Smith, which
he made famous when he paved the
floor with silver dollars to excite the
wonder Of the wealthy and the envy
of the poor who patronized his bar, is
shortly to disappear. It has been sold
and soon the site will be occupied by
a large warehouse to be erected by
new owners.
Business in the place has not been
good since the death of "Silver Dol

Essex market, police court trade has
drifted away, for there were no longer

The Advent of the
Mining Man
In This District Means
Much as to its Future
Prosperity.

The era of the departure of the
prospector and the advent of the
mining man is coming into p-omi-
nence in and around this vicinity.
The transfers of mining property
which has taken place of late is
proof conclusive of this statement.
This district is large one and
prospecting is continuing MS lively
as ever and there is just as good
ground as yet unprospected as
there is in the immediate vicinity
of the town.
These transfers that are being
made are of properties that lie ad-
jacent to the proven mines and
are being gathered up by substan-
tial mining men who will put the
money in the ground to develop
them.
This activity in the transfer OF
properties in this vicinity to men
who will mine is indicative oil
what the future prosperity of the
camp will be. With mines all
around US for miles and miles, and
even under our feet, this district is
located in a rich mineral zone.
There is no doubt but that some
of our properties will soon be
working, and the men required to
work them will angment our pop
ulation to such a degree that it is
safe to predict that our town will
grow in population. We believe
we can afford to be cheerful; the
best is to come.

The Cement
Supply

Almost the entire cement supply
in the United States will be on its
way to San Francisco in a few
months. 1t is computed that in a
short time the city will ba using
more cement in one day in the re-
building than all the states of the
Union were using a decade ago.
One of the large construction con-
Germs of San Francisco has engag-
cd 1000 barrels of cement day to
be delivered in August. Later in
the year it is expected that the de-
mand will be such that the same
firm will have to use 10000 barrels
a day, or about seventy carloads.
This cement will be needed in the
erection of about $5.000,0OO worth
of buildings. 1t is impossible for
the cement manufacturers on the
coast to supply the demand, as all
the cement manufactured out West
is consumed under normal condi-
tions. Cement will have to be i'm
ported from abroad. A large fleet
of ships is now on the way to the
city from ports in Japan, Belgium,
Australia, England, Germany and
the Hawaiian Islands. Even
abroad the supply is being called
upon to its fullest extent, and large
orders are daily being placed by
cable. Eastern capital is interest
ed in the situation, and some of
the larger capitalists have sent men
out on prospecting expeditions to
see il some of the raw materials
cannot be located. A cement
quarry at the present time would
be almost as valuable as a gold
mine, and the same eagerness and
enthusiasm attended the search
for it as that for the yellow metal.

property will, no doubt, mean
much for Northern Lander.
OTHER NOTES FROM BULLION.
Mr.. James Larson, who recently
purchased the Lepetich claims,
near the Clipper group, has sold
the same to Mr.. Lakin, and re-
ceived substantial payment down.
A. Wise, Chas. Campbell and R.
M. Horton have bonded their four
claims adjoining the Gold Quartz
Mining Company's property in
this district, and everything looks
favorable for an immediate sale.
A. R. Holcomb, Clarence Hol-
comb, and the Hossack Bros, have
been working for some time on
the above claims and have devel-
oped some fine ore bodies.
Charles Clark, we are informed,
has bonded his property to out
side parties for snug sum.
Goldfeld and Tonopah parties
have been in the district for some
time past prospecting the adjacent
territory, locating ground and
otherwise getting heavily interest
ed in and around that camp.
We are informed that another
rich strike has been made on the
Dutchman property, being better
than anything that has been struck
on the property. 1t is said that
the strikes made on this mine are
phenominal in the high values
found.

nanhattan Will
Have Railroad.
Manhattan July 18th.

Manhattan July 18th.
"Oficial confirmation from the
headquarters of the Southern Pa
cific company CT the rumor that
Manhattan is to be afforded rail-
road connections was received here
yesterday and is a subject of gen.
eral satisfaction throughout the
the camp. The Southern Pacific
company contemplates, either the
purchase of the Austin railroad or
the construction of a parallel line
from Wells to that point, thence
south to Tonopah and Goldfeld.
In either event it seems probable
that trains will be running into
this camp before snow flies"
"For some time past the South
ern Pacific people have been me-
gotiating for the purchase of the
Austin railroad, but in order to be
prepared for eventualities it is an
nounced that they have likewise
completed surveys for competing
line and the material for the new
road has been ordered. The cul-
mination of the plans will give an
immediate outlet for the immense
ore tonnage of this district and
will establish a computing line
with the Tonopah railway which
has long enjoyed the monopoly of
the transportation business of the
mining camps of Southern Me-
vada.
