ARTICLES LOST At SEA.
Hats and Other Wearing Apparel Per
qulsItes for Neptune.

Did you ever speculate on what be-
comes Of the hats and other articles OF
wearing apparel that find their way
into the sea from the steamers that
are constantly plying back and forth?
Hardly a ship steams from one port
to another without somebody's hat or
boa or shawl blowing overheard. Thou
sands Of them have been lost that way
and scarcely a single one has been
recovered. They are dashed to bits
by the waves. blown to shreds and
otherwise destroyed. ~
But once In q blue moon hat does
come back to land, as In the case not
long ago when large fish was caught.
In cleaning II q woman's hat, almost
intact, was found In the stomach OF
the denizen OF the deep. There IL
reason to believe that this bit Of fem
mime wearing apparel had not lodged
very long In fits curious resting place.
for even q fish II not proof against
indigestion or its equivalent when It
comes to eating straw braid. feathers
and flowers. This hat has been pre-
served as q specimen Of considerable
interest ON account of its unique
travels. OF course II the fair owner
ever makes q claim on It and can
Identity her property It win Be -
turned TO her.

INHERITANCE OF THE DOG.
Some Breeds Are Born With Strong
Friendship for Man.

BY the environment Of his forbeara
for generations back you may know
the dog. An Eskimo or sledge dog
or a Chinese chow chow could never
create the deep friendship that q
deerhound or an English sheep dog
or collie or a bulldog or q terrier 10
capable Of inspiring.
Years before any Of US were thought
of the sledge dog was beast Of bur
den. tolerated because human lives
depended on his motor" power, be-
grudged the necessary wherewithal
to keep his machinery" in good order
and treated not as companion but as
a pariah and as brute without feel.
ing, without thought, without hope.
How expect q descendant Of these
half starved, cuffed and bufeted ami
mails not to shrink from the uplifted
hand and treat with suspicion all
friendly overtures? All man has done
for him and his forbears has been to
play the brute and make life q weary
bondage.
And In all parts Of the globe where
the struggle for life Is most desper-
ate and people, according to our est
mate, are brutes or semi or whole
savages, SO are the dogs Of that peo-
pie.

THE MINES.

O'Brien-Heap Mining Co. Is do
ing very we'll in sinking shaft
No. 1. The ore is struck at the
7s-foot level and shows rich to
los feet.
The Micawber Mining Co. has
completed its repairs and started
ND the diggings once again. The
water has been quite a problem
in the shaft, but with the Com
mon Law mill going it makes it
possible to get into the ground on
this lease again.
To the west of the Mission
mine the Virginia is pushing the
installation of its new mill, which
will be ready to run by December
lst. Meanwhile the underground
work is being pushed so as to
open up as big an area as posi-
bic before the mill starts up.
Fred Worth of the Myrtle Min
ing Co. has gotten his gang well
organized since starting up and
Is now turning into the ore bin a
bunch of fine ore each day. The
work underground is progressing
well and the mill is now running
full time.
D. D. Gill, of the Good Luck
Mining Co., has that smile on
that won't come off" since strik-
ing the big deposit of free ore in
shaft No. 2. The further the
drifts are driven the better the
ore shows up. A big mill will be
put on this property at once.
Mason Mining Co. has struck
extra rich ore in sinking the mill
shaft. While the upper level
showed we'll, still the sinking has
proven richer. With the addi-
tional stope of II feet this prop
erty will be kept busy when it
starts up again, which will be
soon.
Isley and Dark Horse combina-
tion is milling fine ore from both
PROPERTIES. The drilling which
has been done on both leases is
being verified by the new devel-
opment. J. M. Rice manager, is
we'll pleased with the success
that he has attained in the new
combination.
The 3F Mining Co. is still
pushing the underground devel.
opment on its lease with fine re-
suits. All drifts are showing the
ore in the regular bedded forma-
tion, where it has proven to make
up in a conglomerate, the ore
crystals being free. This ore is
Of very high grade and is easily
cleaned.
E. F. Sweeney reports four ex-
cellent drill strikes on the Nc
Allister lease, as we'll as fine ore
in sinking the mill shaft deeper.
This lease is cross cut by the
branch and the big ore lays up
against the pronounced break to
the west of the creek. Sinking
win be completed within the next
two weeks and then the mill will
be run continuously.
Joe Kramer has passed his
Hoodoo Days" and now has his
big mill going in fine shape
again. With forty-eight feet of
6ue lead and zinc to work on this
property viii lead the mills of
the camp for quantity and quali-
y, The zinc ore from this mill
will top the market, as it is very
high grade and well cleaned.
Common Law Mining Cos. new
MIL Il ready to start this week.
The hopper is being filled with
fne ore and while the work nm

the mill going. Still enough
dirt can be hoisted to run better
than half-time from the start.
With the drill showings on this
lease the property will prove an
excellent producer.
| Newlands Mining Co. is doing
fine work these days. The ore is
made in a conglomerate and is
very easily mined. 1t is easily
cleaned as it shells out like corn,
free and clean. North drift is
unusually rich, while the south
side is holding out remarkably
we'll, although dipping pretty
much southeast. New bins will
have to be built to hold the ore
unless sale is made this week.
About $50 tons of fine zinc ore is
now ready for market, and from
its looks should top the market.
A strike of extremely rich ore
was made in the Sunburst mine
the past week. This is going to
the west in the south drift which
gives the impression that it
makes over the entire lease to the
west line. The balance of the
drifting is showing up good. The
ore pile is still growing, and it is
the purpose of the company to
stack up ten or fifteen thousand
tons before building a mill. We
hope others will follow along the
same line, so that when mills are
built they can be kept going.
Many of the companies are
preparing for a creditable show
ing of the ores from their mines
at the mineral exhibit to be in
stalled at Joplin for the meeting
of the American Mining Con-
gress. Baxter Springs has Sc
cured space in the exhibit hall,
and the committee on exhibit
from the Baxter Springs district
will collect the samples by team
from the camp and install same,
Labelling each mines ore sepa-
rately. Each and every mine
should do its best to make the
exhibit one worthy of our camp.
The big mill being installed
on the Lancaster mine will be in
operation by the middle Of No.
vember. All the ore on the dump
looks mighty good and will set
high water mark for the other
operating properties in the dis
trict to work to. Several thous-
and tons of this rich ore is now
on the dump and more being
piled up each day. The deep
we'll on this property is down 625
feet, with prospects of having Il
60 to the 900-foot level before a
flow of artesian water will b,
struck. This water supply will
be used for milling purposes.
E. G. Lawley of the Alabama
Mining Co., makes lots of nois,
with his siren whistle and the
camp don't object to it bit, as
he has something to make a
noise about. The inhabitants OF
the camp will issue a permit to
any other mine that will show up
as big a diggings as Mr.. Lawley
has to make all the noise they
can. If you want to see lead
diggings" just stop at the Ala
bama and take a peep. 1t is not
only what is in sight that pleased
Lalwey, but the fact that all eleven
holes drilled show eight feet of
the same lead besides IS feet of
rich pebble free zinc ore as well.
/ 1t looks as if their ten acres
would be the banner lease in the
camp.
Mission Mining Co. has been
grinding away steadily since
it started up over a week ago. It
is worth the time to pay this

James Shaw of the firm OF
Shaw G. May, sidewalk contract
ors of DeKalb. ILL.,, arrived in
this city last Thursday evening.
He is now busily engaged in his
work in this city. He will push
the work of construction as fast
as possible, so as to get the work
all done before solid freezing
weather sets in. Mr.. Shaw is a
son Of Mrs. Amanda Garrett of
this city.
The much heralded prize fight,
which was to have been held in
this city last Monday night, was
not pulled off, owing to the vigil
lance of the sheriff and county at
torney. The principals were
here, so were the hackers, and
perhaps a couple of hundred
sports from nearby towns. But
County Attorney Morgan and
Sheriff Hatton were also here, so
there was nothing doing. 1t is
said the go" will be pulled off
in Joplin some evening before
long.

Letter to ChaS. VI. Hammond,

Dear Sir: We asked City Drug Co,
Crystal Springs, Miss, to sell Devoe.
They wanted to know, Of their own
knowledge, how it compared with an.
other paiut they knew all about-it was
sold right there, and considered good.
They painted the house of w b
McCluney two coats on purpose to test
the two paints against one another one
coat Devoe 6 gallons; the other coat
that other paint 10 gallons. Difference
$40 81 for paint, $l8 for labor.
That other paint is made in New Or
leans is pure; is considered an excel
lent paint, and has a good deal of local
goodwill.
But the standard of paint has been
low all through the southwest. That
paint is thin it is, you see, six-tenths
of a paint. Devoe saves $40 over it on
