TidsBits of News for Scandinavia
AMONG OUR BEST CUSTOMERS.
Scandinavians Deal Extensively With
the United States.

Scandinavians Deal Extensively With
the United States.
Scandinavia is a good customer OF
the United States, according to a re
cent report of the bureau of statistics
Of the department of commerce AMI Ia
Dor. The report says that the trade OF
the United States with these countries
has increased practically 200 per cent
in the last decade, while our total for
eign trade has increased but 70 per
cent.
How much of this rapil growth in
our trade with these countries is due
to the large percentage of their people
who have become a part OF the popula-
ton of the United States cannot be sta
tistically stated, but it is at least an
interesting fact that the Scandinavian
population of the United States bears
a larger ratio to the present population
Of their countries of nativity than is
true of any other class of our foreign
born population.
The census of 1900 shows in the
United States 1862, 100 persons born IN
Sweden, Denmark and Norway, a total
equal to 10.7 per cent of the present
population of those countries; whlle
the highest ratio which any other ma
tiOnality in the United States bears TO
the present population of it's home
country is that of the United Kingdom,
6.5 per cent, while Germany ranks next
with 4.8 per cent, Italy 1,5 per cent, and
Austria-H Hungary 1.3 per cent.
The entire trade with Sweden, Nor
way and Denmark amounts to $32,O0O,-
900 a year, of which $6,00O,OOO repre-
sents the imports from those countries
and $26,000,000 the exports. To SWed-
en- this country sends manufactured
cotton, mineral oil, iron and steel man
ufactures, flour, lard and fertilizers
and other articles, and imports iron
and steel in the form of bars and rods,
hides and skins, wood pulp and match
es. The annual trade both ways
amounts to $10,100,000.

breadstuffs, iron and steel manutac-
lures, sole leather, molasses and syf-
up. raw cotton and mineral Oil, and re-
ceives in return wood pulp, hides and
skins. mackeral and anchovies. The
entire business amounts to about So
100000. The imports show substan-
tial increase, while there is tendency
to a decrease in the exports to that
country.
Denmarks annual business with the
United States amounts to about $l6,-
100000, or about one-half the trade
with Scandinavia. The imports are
comparatively small, amounting to
only a trif1e over a million dollars and
represented by hides and skins, rem
nets, unground flints and other small
imports. The export trade is very
large, consisting practically of the
same products as is sent to Sweden
and Norway.

MRS. BAKER DEAD.
"Aunt Friendly" Famous Writer on
Sweden, Passes Away.


Mrs. Woods Baker, an author of
some note, died recently at Stockholm,
Sweden, where she has lived since
1876. when her daughter Louise be-
came the wife of the Hon. Ernst Beck
man, now member Of the Swedish
riksdag. She has been a prolific writ
er. and among her works is Pictures
Of Swedish Life" which is standard
English work on Sweden, and is the
only work with the exception of w. w.
Thomas Sweden and the Swedes,"
recommended by Baedeker for tour
lists in Sweden.
She began writing in 1847 under the
nom de plume of "Aunt Friendly" her
stories having had a great vogue
among children. Her works have been
translated into German, French, Span
ish and Swedish.
Mrs. WOods-Bal1er was free from am
bition for literary fame or desire OF
gain. She wrote as a labor Of love, in
the hope of doing good; of aiding read
ers toward the higher life, of>promot-
ing interest in Swedish history and of
making better known the beauties and
virtues of Swedish life. AS far as pos
sible she kept the fact of her writing
for the public secret until late in her
career.

Baker at Djursholm were attended by
a delegation from the Swedish parlia-
ment, by the American minister, Col.
Charles Fl. Graves; the American con-
sui general, Edward l.. Adams and
Mrs Adams.

One wav to Cook a Quail.

A quail, as every one knows, is nat
urally one Of the dryest of birds, ana
it is always a question with cooks how
BEST to preserve it's juices.
To take off the skin is to take away
the greatest part of the juices, and
such a quail, broiled or roasted, would
be little better eating than cottonwood
chips. In North Carolina they cook q
quail in the middle Of a big potato.

PUSHING TO
BULLFROG

Work on the Bullfrog and Goldheid
railroad is being pushed with all energy
and the contractors will make good their
promises to have the road ready for
operating by the first part of October
if no unforeseen trouble arises. The first
stretch of track from Columbia to Mill
town, southeast of the Florence mine
has been completed and rails laid eX-
cepting for a small gap on the Silver
Pick ground. This gap will be closed as
soon as the right of way differences
have been adjusted. The contractors,
Mclean and Ottman, have added num-
Der of teams and men to their force dur
ing the past week and are now grading
several miles below Milltown. A large
consignment of ties have been received
and additional shipments of rails are on
the way.

GETS ORE

1t looks as if the persistent pros
pecting on the September claim might
result in making mine on the South
ern group of the Goldfeld Mining COM
pany. M. A. Smythe has been working
lease on the September claim for IS
months without getting any satisfac-
tory results. Last night, however. in
trenching in a new part of the claim, a
three foot ledge was discovered, two
feet from the surface. which runs s12.
Mr.. Smythe has recently taken into
partnership E. J. Roberts, the drug
gist. They are, naturally, greatly
elated over their discovery and with
sufficient funds in hand, they expect to
go down on the ledge, and have no
doubt but what they will find a good
body of ore with depth. The ore is sui
phide and the ledge has every appear.
ance of strength and permanency on de-
velopment. Mr.. Smythe had already
put down a 50-foot shaft and had
drifted SO feet in one way and 65 feet In
another; but while getting assays run
ming from s14 to $24.40, pay ore had
never been discovered in quantities.
They hope now to be on the ore.

GREAT BEND
SYLVANITE
Tom Keane Hosting the Precious
Metal on His Ground While the
Main Workings Are Producing
Regularly and Values Re-
main High

At the Great Bend they are lifting ore
steadily from the 120-foot level, and the
ground shows marked Improvement as
the work goes on. From this level there
are 120 feet of virgin ground, and a
shipment just reported, indicates the
value of the streak to uniformly run
about 80 a ton, while the milling body
runs from $40 to $50 ton. The product
of the entire vein is being lifted to the
surface and shipped in separate grades
The returns on 27 tons just reported
was $50 per ton. The output of the
mine for the next few weeks, until bet
ter equipment is provided, will be linn
tied to about 40 tons week.
The strike made by Tom Keane, on
this ground, at the depth of 20 feet,
shows a fine body of ore, which pans
gold as well as a streak of high grade
tellurium. He is steadily sinking and
the ledge is defining itself excellently
between good walls.
On the Great Bend Extension ground,
miners have also recently come into
large body of ore about 8 or feet thick,
which shows at the present time an
average value of about 81 per ton.
They are breaking this ore and drifting
steadily with the expectation of coming
into a higher grade.

ROUND MOUNTAIN COMPANY

If anything is needed to intensity the
interest centering around Round Noun
tain, 1t is furnished in the recent won
derful strike on the disputed ground
which lies only 900 feet east of the
original strike of the Round Mountain
company. Development everywhere in
the region, not only meets but exceeds
all expectation, and every point in the
territory of the Round Mountain COM
pany, where the ground has been opened,
gold in quantity has been found. In the
original incline of the Round Mountain
company the values have risen at a
depth of 40 feet, in a remarkable way;
$500 paintings are common, and high
grade streaks rich in the precious metal,
are frequent. Where the first phenome-
nal ore was found, development is prov
ing very satisfactory, the rich ore con-
tinuing with depth. On the west end OF
this ground on the claim known as the
Great Western, at depth of 20 feet,
they are now in large body of ore that
runs $25 per ton. The excitement
around this mountain is steadily in
creasing and large camp is being rap
idly established.

PALACE aoLDFIELD

On Saturday the directors of the
Palace Goldfield Mining company will
meet to complete the organization OF
the company and settle the final details
of the taking over of the property in
volved.
The company holds two very well
located claims near the well known
Great Bend mine and it is the opinion
of Mr.. F. M. Dorsey that both the lodes
of the Great Bend property pass
through the Rabbits Foot claim and the
Aqua fraction which are the company S
holdings. At Saturdays meeting the
president, ]. B. Reilly and Judge w. A.
Sherman, Colonel Geo. w. Dorsey and
w. E. Rowlands who are vice president
treasurer and secretary respectively,
will be present.
At this time one lease is being
worked on the property and several
other prospective 1easers are examining
the ground One of the purposes OF the
meeting is to decide when company
work will be commenced.

xENpRIcK-IsH LEASE.

Frank M. Ish, when asked today about
the lease on the Combination, said:
"The lease is looking great We are
breaking through ten feet of ore which
gives from 500 to S1S6 and getting into
very large ore body which runs about
$40. We have drifted to the south end
line of our ground, and the ore shoot
is continuous. To the north of the
shaft, however, on the hanging wall, we
lose the values. Crosscutting to the
foot wall values resume and are very
good The shaft is now down 116 feet
and we are starting to drift"
Mr.. Ish states that, If they could turn
their entire attention to stopping, the
ground could produce one hundred tons
of shipping ore daily. Yesterday the
assays ran $500. but no sorting is done.
The ore is shipped in bulk.

STRIKE ON
SILVER PICK
Brewer Lease on silver Pick Claim
Encounters q rour-root Ledge at
100 Feet That Promises to
Run into Good
Values

A big strike was made yesterday on
the Brewer lease on the Silver Pick
claim of the Silver Pick Mining COM
pany. The Brewer interests are work
ing two leases on the Silver Pick
ground. the other being on the Pipe
Dream which lies next to the great
lease on the Combination. Mr.. Brewer
states that the story was not intended
for publication inasmuch as the assays
have not yet been made. He admits
the find, however, and reports that the
ledge was encountered at depth of 100
feet and Is about four feet wide. A
piece of ore which Mr. Brewer displayed
today greatly resembled that found
upon the st. Ives and will doubtless
carry good values. This strike lies
about 1900 feet west of the Combination
lease and somewhat north.

ST. IVES.

On the st. Ives things are looking
better constantly. Three cars of ore
will be shipped at the end of this week
from the Gardiner-Erickson lease.
These leasers are working in three feet
of solid ore. The formation is that
known as boronite and an average as
say shows values of $500 in gold and
some copper. Four men are at work for
Gardiner and Erickson. Twelve men
are doing company work.
An assay outfit ordered by the COM
pany is due here this week and when
this has been installed plans for devel-
opment can be formed to greater ad-
vantage. The other leases are all up

time there was more than enough ore in
sight to make the remaining payments
and John McKane, Patsy Clark of Spo-

take up the property If Patrick failed
to meet the payments. Patrick made
arrangements with Chicago capitalists
to take over his option and to give him
an interest in the property by way OF
profit. The Chicago men were very
slow in closing up the deal and Patrick
only received the money with which to
make the second payment just fifteen
minutes before the bank closed on the
day upon which such payment was to
be made. The Chicago men organized
the present Combination Mines company
and Patrick received for his interest
one-eighth of the stock and a cash
bonus. Not until several months after
the deal was closed did Jones claim any
interests in the profits of the deal.
