An Underground City.

In Galacia, in Austrian Poland, there
Is a remarkable underground city,
which has q population Of over 900
men, women and children, scores Of
whom have never seen the light OF
day. 1t is known as the City Of Salt
Mines and is situated several hundred
feet below the earth's surface. It has
Its town hall, theater and assembly
room as well as beautiful church,
decorated with statues. all being fash
Toned from the pure crystallized rock
salt. It has well graded streets and
spacious squares, lighted with cleo
tricity. There are numerous instances
In this underground city where not a
single individual In three or four sue
cessive generations has ever seen the
sun or has any idea of how people live
in the light Of day.

Where DO the Cents Cor

Nobody knows what becomes of the
millions on millions of cents that are
minted annually, the production vary
ing from 25,OO0, 600 to 90.O0o,O 900 per
annum. They simply vanish from
sight and are gone forever. The phe-
nomenon seems strange and is not cas-
fly accounted for. People say, What
becomes Of all the pins?" That is
easily answered. Pins soon corrode,
and thus are transformed into nothing
that is recognizable A copper cent. on
the other hand, Is indestructible, com
paratiyely speaking. But the solution
Of the problem seems to be that cents
are subject to more accidents than any
other coins. They change hands ten
times as often as dimes, for example,
and, being Of small value they are not
cared for.--Los Angeles Times.

 OF THE TENDERF0OT

In a letter dated Richardson, Feb 20, to O. A. Carruthers at Rampant, George Olmsted said:
 ''This Tenderfoot proposition does not amount to much as yet-deep diggings, dirty gold and pretty well monopolized. The creek is wide, two tiers on either limit beside the creek claims, and about seven miles long. One hundred and fifty feet to bedrock at 16 below"

About Copper.

In 1896 the copper production of the world was 373,36l long tons of fine metal; in 1906 the United States alone produced 420, ,405 tons.
 The largest copper producing state is Montana, which in 1906 reported l37 ,924 long tons In the last 24 years the state has produced approximately sos, ,099 tons.
 Michigan from lS45 to 1906 produced I ,SS6, 562 long tons of copper, of which 99, ,SSS was reported by the Lake Superior mines in 1906 l'p to the end of 1906 these mines have paid dividends to the amount of $l53, ,3S9, ,0l2.
 Arizona has experienced unusual ac- tivity in recent years, especially in Bis bee, Globe, Jerome and Clifton districts In 1906 the territory output was ll9, ,643 tons, the record.
 Utah holds fourth place among the copper producing states, and there is q probability of an enormous increase. In 1906 the production was 26,22S long tons
 Of the smaller producing states, Ten neSsee, which treats exceptionally low grade ore, is rapidly forging ahead, and California is reopening old mines and developing new deposits in Shasta county. Alaska, Colorado, Idaho and New Mexico are among the promising copper yielding fields.
 Canada's copper output is principally from the Sudbury district in Ontario and the Boundary district in British Co., lumbia. Other foreign countries that contribute to the worlds copper output include Mexico, Spain, Portugal Aus tralasia, Japan and Germany. Numer- ous other countries are producing cop- per, and it is very likely that Peru will henceforth steadily increase it's output. There is also possibility that the vast copper deposit. believed to exist in Africa and in the West Indies tnotably in IIaytil may hc developed on a large .rula

 At a point on the boundary line be. tween California. and Nevada, about 25 miles south of Rhyolite, the reported discovery of fabulously rich gold lodges has caused big stampede. There is a prospect of establishing large camp.
 About 90 per cent. of the worlds plat mum supply for 1906 was produced in the government of Perm, Russia, be- tween l65, ,000 and l75, ,000 ounces troy Prices advanced from $24.20 to $37 .4C per ounce from January to October, 1906
 The total value of metals and minerals produced in the United States in 1900 reached $l 9l2, ,49l ,572, an increase oi 17.7 per cent over 1905, the next highest year. This greatly exceeded the pro duction of any other country in the world.
 Africa has the credit of being the sec. ond largest gold-producing continent in the world. In 1906 the Transvaal pro- duced $ll9,609,373 and Rhodesa $10,. 20l ,327. In recent years there has also been quite an increase in the output in West Africa.

 The coal deposits at Coal Creek, few miles below Fortymile, lie in two vast sheets, dipping at an angle of 3S degrees. They may be likened unto two colossal plates of coal thrust at slant into the bowels of the earth and extending per haps for miles. The workings are now in POO feet. The coal is worked from beneath, so that when it is loosened it falls into gravity cars that automatically dump it into bins, whence it n- loaded into cars and taken l2 miles to bunkers on the Yukon river. 1t is proposed to transport 1000 to 5000 tons to Dawson the coming season. It is also proposed to build an immense plant at the mines to supply the Dawson country with elec- tric power, but that will not be accom-. plished this year.

Hunters Killed slo,ooo Bulldog

Three gunners shot and killed Mer- land, a bulldog valued at $10,000, be- longing to Miss Inez E. Schaeffer, last Saturday. The dog was said to have descended from the Duke of Marlbor- ongh $ famous Richmond. The shooting was done in front of Miss Schaeffer 's home, three miles north of Germantown. It followed an attack made on an Irish setter with which they were hunting by Merland and two other prize bull. dogs belonging to Miss Schaeffer.
 When their dog fled to them for pro- lection they shot at once, she says. Merland was carried into house and veterinary surgeon summoned. The dog s mistress and the surgeon remained constantly by the animal until 9 o clock in the evening, when it died. Costly pillows formed a resting place for its form.
 Merland had a long list of honors taken at dog shows in this country and abroad and was down in all the blue books of dogdom. His mistress says she was offered 5000 for him over and over again. n.-Philadelphia Ledger.

Left after Marriage
President Stops Third-term Talk

Senator Jonathan Bourne of Oregon who, as the most active third-term prop. agandist, has offered Sl 900 for the best essay on why Mir. Roosevelt should serve "second elective term, v wheth- CT he wants to or not, heard the riot act from the lips of the president today. Senator Bourne declares that the pres ident did not tell him to "let up, and even so requested he would not relent. . But. it is understood that the president informed MT. Bourne in no uncertain terms that he meant what he said in denying the possible honor of another nomination and did not propose to be dragooned into changing his mind. There is no breach, but there is no denying that Senator Bourne s propa- ganda does not meet with the presi- dents approval.
 Senator Bourne's third-term views have been well known for several months, and he has made it his business to test sentiment throughout the coun- try. The result is that he pronounces Governor Hughes the strongest eandi- date next to President Roosevelt, and he has discovered vigorous sentiment against President Roosevelt s dictating the nomination of his successor by pro mating the candidacy of Secretary Taft. It was at one of his dinners at the Shoreham hotel last year that senator dropped remarks which caused the pres ident to make it known that $5,0Oo,- 900 conspiracy" had been formed for the defeat of the Roosevelt policy in congress and the election of 'sreac- tionary.

In making recent monthly inspee. tion of the books queer assortment of articles were found by the librarians of one of the big public libraries of this city. Among the articles found were all kinds of bills-groeery bills, gas bills, and the life; hatpins, hairpins and hair ornaments of every description, design and material; love letters galore, locks of hair, bits of lace, dress samples and watch chain charms. latch keys, pocket combs, pen and ink, pencil and crayon sketches, postal orders and pos tage stamps. There were many photo graphs, besides an insurance policy. The latter was claimed by the owner.

THE FIFTIETH YEAR
Doings of Some of Our Presidents at
 that Period of Their Lives

Theodore Roosevelt, now on the threshold of his fiftieth year, has been president of the United States since September IA, 1901, when he was 43 years of age. He has been the youngest of all our presidents, and only four of the others, Franklin Pierce, U. s. Grant, James A. Garfield and Grover Cleveland, were inaugurated before they passed the half-century mark.
 In February, l7sl, Washington cele- brated his forty-ninth birthday in camp in the period of comparative inaction preceding the union of French and American troops for the assault on Yorktown. In his fiftieth year, l792, Jefferson, as secretary of state in Wash ington's cabinet, drew up his famous report on our relations with Spain. In 1900, when he had just entered, when he had just entered his fiftieth year, Madison was out of office, but making his statesmanship felt in the most fa- nous of all his "papers, his defense of his resolutions against the alien and otuiiiou idNs. HlOHfOe WAS IOfty-nlne in 1907, and that was one of his "off years. The negotiations with Great Britain looking to the protection of neu- tral rights, had failed, and although he had been spoken of for the presidency, Madison overshadowed him.
 Jackson s fftieth year, 1916, was comparatively calm for his stormy life. The first rumble of the distant drum of the Seminole war had not been heard. But he had already figured in the pop ular mind as possible president. Some exciting weeks of Lincoln s fftieth year, 1858, were given up to joint de- bate with stephen A. Douglas of the burning questions of the hour. Both were candidates for election from Hi nois to the United States senate. Doug las was elected senator, but three years afterward Lincoln was inaugurated president of the United States.
 1t may be interesting thus to recall the doings of some of our other presi- dents at the period of their lives cor responding with this interesting year in MT. Roosevelt's brilliant year-New York Times.
