BUILDS NEW WAR BALLOON.
Which He Says Can Re steered
in Amy Direction.

DIR. Barton's war balloon, which, it
is said, the British war office pro-
poses to buy, has a platform and ma
CHR cry which is suspended cigar
shape. The balloon a he steered in
any direction. The propellers are
driven by a high-speed motor be-
tween the balloon ana the car.
There is q horizontal aeroplane, the
fixed operation of which causes the
balloon to ascend and de ,cend in
straight progress at any altitude. At
the rear there is a vertical aeroplane
for steering to the right and left.
The dithculty arising from moving
the center of gravity is circumyented
by two half-flled water tanks at each
end, from which Yater is automatic
ally pumped from one to the other
as the end of the machine becomes
heavier. The aerostat is divided INTO
gas-tight compartments.
DIR. Barton hopes by the end of
summer to float his balloon and carry
three people at the rate of 10 or 10
miles an hour.

TO BAR JOHN CHINANAN.
United States and CanRdR to Unite In
an Effort to stop %IRwfu In
nux of the CeIestiaIs.

The United States government and
the Canadian government are COM
bining in an effort to stop the SNUG
Cling of and unlawful influx of China
men into Canada and the United
States. Both countries have suffered
within the last few years, and Canada
has unintentionally helped to break
the United States exclusion law.
A representative of the United
States customs department is in 0tta-
wa at present, acting in conjunction
with the Canadian officers. From
what has been discovered, the Cana
dian authorities are convinced that
many more Cinnamon than the law
permits have come into Canada in bond
for the last few years, and have then
mysteriously disappeared. 1t is to the
interest of the transportation com
panies to see that the law is obeyed,
and therefore, the authorities say, it
must have been customs officials who,
through neglect or otherwise, have
permitted these men to disappear. 1t
is stated that evidence has been Sc
cured against SeNeTai oI Iuese Oilcldls
and that a general shake-up will soon
follow.
On an average 1000 Cinnamon have
been imported into Canada for the last
five years. Each year about 800 OF
these have gone through in bond to
Jamaica and other places under the
padrone system. About 500 a year
were entitled to stay here on paying
the 500 a head tax, and the remainder
should have been deported to China,
but only a small percentage were Sc
deported.

Mines, Mills and Mining.

Custer county is one of the richest mining sections in the world
but at present it needs better transportation, and capital to deyeIp
its rich mining districts. In some states and territories mining
and agriculture, though progressing hand in hand, are yet nearly
independent of each other. The farmers market is widened BY
the miner, to be sure but not relying on home consumption eE
clusively, he can exist and prosper, but in this county the miner
and farmer depend upon each other to a great extent. Let Us for
. a moment call the attention of the capitalist to some of the ma.
important mining districts and mines in the county, viz MackF
with its great copper mines; Morgan creek; Garden creek lead and
silver mines; Bayhorse district with its famous Ramshorn, SkyEh
and dozens of rich cad silver and gold bearing mines; Poverty
Flat; Centennial Flat; East Fork; Clayton; Slate creek; Thompson
creek; Robinson Bar; Stanley Basin, with placer and quartz; Fish
err gold mines; Sheep Mountain and Seafoam, with their hundreds
of rich lead silver mines; Loon creek, placer and gold quartz min
.es; Washington Basin gold mines; and the celebrated Yankee Fork
district, which is gold-slver ores, and embraces within its confines
hundred OF mines, the most prominent producers at this time being
The Lucky Boy and Yankee Fork. Custer county also has several
Quartz mills and smelters-tve quartz mills at Custer; a drdR
ooat and mill at Stanley; d smelter at C Clayton ;ooncentrator at Bay
horse, and a new 8OO-ton smeter at Mackay. In Custer county as
nearly 5oOo located mining claims, and yet the vast region has DOT
been half prospected.

MAKING RECORD FOR ITSELF.
Splendid Work of the photographic
Department of Navy Gaining
international Reputation.

A great number of inquiries which
eign nAvies by Capt. C. C. Todd, chief
photographer of the navy, attest to
the remarkable prestige this branch
of our naval service has gained
abroad. Our photographic service is
conceded to be more advanced and
complete than that of any other navy
in the world, and foreign navies are
~endeavoring to emulate the example
set by our own advance in this line.
Requests for information on various
points come from Spain, France,
Greece and practically all of the Eu-
ropean nations, and all proper infor-
nation is given without reserve. In
some cases foreign naval authorities
have offered to pay for valuable bits
of information, concerning a reef.
perhaps, which is uncharted on their
own maps, or the unknown depth of
water in some channel. But all that
is asked in return by the photograph
ic office is that the inquirer contrib
ute to the knowledge already in hand
at Washington as far as possible,
The pilot charts which are issued
monthly by the Office are fast gain
ing an almost universal reputation.
They give, beside data of .strictly
technical nature. weather forecasts
for the ensuing month covering prac-
tically the whole world.

COUNTED HIS FOOTSTEPS.
German Explorers Singular Way os
MRpping His Route Through
Africa.

Count Edward W~ickenburg, a Ger
nan explorer, lately returned home af-
ter a long expedition in Africa. He
started from the French port of Dill
bout. Travelled inland to Addis-Ababa,
the capital Of King Menelik, then on to
the great brackish Lake Rudolf. and
finally to Lamu, on the Indian ocean.
It was a very fruitful journey and the
best feature Of 1t was the fine mar he
brought home of his entire itinerary,
says a London paper.
Count Wickenburg had with him two
pedometers, which counted his foot
steps for him, and he was thus saved
the labor which Or. Junker underwent
when he walked 400 miles into the
depths of Africa and had to count every
step himself. Wiclenburg ascertained
very carefully the average length of his
steps. One thousand steps were repre-
sented on the map by a line a little over
a third of an inch in length. Every mile
he walked added about an inch to his
route on the map.
When his path was st~raightaway he
often walked as far as 1000 steps be-
fore he stopped to bring up his map to
the point he had reached. If the path
were crooked he stepped more fire.
quently.
So he trudged on, compass in hand,
taking the direction OF the route while
his pedometers kept steadily counting
his footsteps, Twenty-one big sheets
were required to record the first stage.
OF his journey, a distance of 273 miles.
When the expedition returned home
his hundreds of big map sheets were re-
duced, in the process Of the engraving,
to sheets of much smaller scale. His
map has been published this month in
six sheets, and a fine product it is. Civ
ing much detail about every important
aspect of the country for miles away

RABBIT-RIDDEN CALIFORNIA.
Partly Due TO the Recent CrnBe for
belgian Hare~ and the Conse-
Quent Over-ImpOrtation.

It Is reported that the importation of
Belgian hares in such vast numbers
threatens California with the same
danger which menaced Australia.
They are overrunning the whole coun-
try to such an alarming extent that a
bounty has been offered in some coun-
Il Cor their skins.
bis is due partly, says the New
YafA Herald. to over-importation and
paity 10 their great fecundity-which,
by the way, reminds one OF the small
hoy, who, frowning over his school
tnsk. wished he was a Belgian hare,
ause he heard they multiplied rapid

Az any rate, they have multiplied too
rpp'liy for the peace of mind of the
rnia racher whose crops suffer
fan fhe constant Expectations of the
81 eious animals.
Na3 cut OF the difficulty might be
sp slnd in a recent statistical report
fa lit effect that millions of rabbits
slaughtered every year IN the Brit
isiqnds and Australia for their fur,
which is used ia making felt hats.
Tremendous numbers of these skins

When the skins finally arrive here
they are shaved Of their close fur,

economic method Of bridging this gulf
between SO obvious an oversupply and
nm equally great demand for the home
