Mining Operations.

Matters in our mining districts are
taking on new lease of life and from
present indications Morgan county
will be the scene OF some new and
excellent developments. The parties
owning the Eclipse mine, several miles
southwest of town, expect to do some
deep mining this winter and are con-
fident of success with what they al
ready have in sight.
A company Of Chicago capitalists
have had representatives here during
the past week looking after mining
matters. This company have decid-
ed to start operations in the south
part of the county about the first Of
January, whereby they will do some
prospecting and drilling on an extern
sive scale.
Last week the Flick-Recd lead
and zinc mine, on the property of
Mrs. Hoist, near Gravois Mills, was
optioned to Minnesota parties, who
will begin extensive mining operations
At the mine about the first Of January.
This prospect has given conclusive
evidence of good results, as fine spec.
linens of zinc orc. can be seen either
at the real estate Offices OF Messrs.
Crewson and Harrison or II. A.
Young, and plenty OF fine ore is in
sight at the mine. The parties who
now have the prospect in hand are
determined to develop this proposition
to the fullest extent, and without
doubt will have plenty Of ore for ship
ment from the start.
Several other mining propositions
are pending, and will be reported as
.soop az anything tangible can he
given out.

Good Old Christmas Times.

We are now nearing the good old
Christmas times-the season which
should be made one sweet round of
pleasure, especially for the little ones.
No other period can be utilized to
appease that wistful longing, or
change that doubling glance in the eye
of the child to one of pure happiness,
than an appropriate gift from mama,
papa, sister or brother on Christmas
morning, after the little ones have
scanned the many toys and trinkets
displayed in the different business
houses.
Gifts should be we'll selected and
chosen with an idea of what the little
ones really enjoy. What greater hap
pincss is there in life than to avail
ourselves of the holiday season to
make those about US happy. 1t does
not require riches to promote good
cheer and joy in the little circle
where we live, move and have our
being every day in the year, but it
does require little judgment, and
that judgment should be exercised to
the fullest extent that your means will
permit.
The worry and turmoil of life is al
ways present, but the period for true
and unstinted happiness only comes
annually at the season when We cele.
brate the birth Of Christ, whom we
must admit, must have been the hap
piest when making his sacrifices for
humanity. We all have reason to be
happy this year, and let the good old
Christmas times ring with the anthems
Of good cheer in every household.
Let us cast aside any idle thoughts OF
discomfort and clothe ourselves in
the holiday joys that make life worth
the living.
