A FORTUNE GONE.

The announcement of Tom L..
Johnson that he is now a poor man
will call forth the sympathy of his
many friends all over the country. For
years as mayor of Cleveland, this man
has stood for all that is fair and
square He has had his eye not on
the money purse. but on the needs of
the people Like all innovators of
movements, Johnson made mistakes,
but these were not of the character to
cast discredit upon him.
The statement is often made that
Johnson is Tor rather was) philan-
thropist This he now denies. He
says he simply did good for the pleas
ure which it afforded him and he an
nounces that ne succeeded to the point
of making himself happy. What ever
moralists and churchmen may say in
regard to the analysis of Mr.. Johnson's
motives for doing good, it is certain
that those people who were affected by
the reforms which he instituted and
the kindness which he displayed in
person, will agree that the important
thing was that he did them.
America would be far better off If
there we're more men going UP and
down in the communities of which
they are residents, doing the services
which Tom L. did for the people of
Cleveland. The spirit is too seldom
manifested to let conspicuous in
stance of 1t go by unnoticed
How many men are there. who have
come out of politics unsmirched and
unenriched, to say nothing Of having
let their personal affairs go to rack
and ruin? Heretofore it has been
said of this man: well, he's a mill
lionaire, he can afford it, In the
light of events which have followed,
it seems that the question of afford

head.
Fancy politician, if that term can
be applied to Mr.. Johnson, who spent
no money in his campaigns and who
although he had unlimited opportuni-
ties for grating from the till of the
municipal street railroads, has not
touched a cent nor allowed any one
else to do SO.
No wonder he has political enemies
And to these enemies he stands UP
and says: ''Ill never give up. I'm
well and strong and they'll always
find me at the 'front.'
He might say, as did the poet Byron
to Thomas More:
Here's a sigh to those who love me
And smile to those who hate:
BUT whatever sky's above me,
Here's heart for any fate"

Humility.

1t Is a curious fact Of human nature
that humility draws forth from the
world almost as much admiration as
courage. AS in the case of courage. it
is almost impossible wholly to con-
denim a character in which we see 1t.
and without it the greatest virtues
leave us cold. If every good word
which the Pharisee said of himself
were proved true we should still dis
like him. We even dislike his mod

An eminent painter was once asked
If he thought art students did well to
go to Europe to study. He said that
undoubtedly the atmosphere was more
artistic in Europe than anywhere else.
but that Paris as a city to study and
work in was overrated.
To illustrate his meaning he said that
a certain rich mans son after three
years in Paris wrote home to his IA

The American Gold Standard mill
located about two miles up Chicago
creek has been thoroughly overhauled
by the Honest John mining company
and is now running on the Black Eagle
milling ore. The work has been su-
Intended by John Puchert who is
manager of the Honest John company
At present the company is milling about
ten tons day that is yielding ten dol
lars per ton. The mill is saving eighty
FIVE per cent of the values. 1t is the
intention of the company to increase
the ca acity which can be done with
compar atively little expense. In ad-
dition to the ten tons daily of milling
ore the company is shipping car load
of smelling ore per week that averages
from $25 to $50 per ton. Development
work IS being pushed on the Black
Eagle so as to increase the tonnage and
it is also sure thing that the values
will largely increase. The Black
Eagle is situated in the midst of rich
pr.d ducers and is held by the Honest
J John under lease and bond.

Idaho Tunnel Starts.

The Idaho Tunnel which has it's por-
tai in the Boomerang Gulch, is being
cleaned out preparatory to driving it
further into Seaton mountain. This
tunnel was started some twenty eight
or thirty years ago by E. E. Mack, of
Albany, New Yo~t, and Governor Br. An
of Castle Hotel' fame was also in
terested. The early superintendent
was Andrew Stevens. One of the inn
portant claims that will be cut at
depth of from five hundred to six hum
dred feet is the Main Trunk, an
extension of the Gem vein and in line
with the Doves Nest. The enterprise
is part of the holdings of the Gem and
this latest development work will be
done under the management and di-
rection of the Gem authorities. BY
the extension of this tunnel. and the
opening up of the Main Trunk vein,
shipments of ore from various por-
tions of the Gem holdings can be IA
cilitated and the output thus increased.
1t is hoped that the most sanguIne
expectations of the authorities Of this
great corporation will be realized in

The Pittsburgh Sun of May says:
President William NJ. Laird of the
Pittsburgh Consolidated NJ. Co. has re-
turned from the property in Colorado.
He says development work has surpass-
ed expectations. The main shaft in
the Brighton mine is down over 800 feet
and sinking continues unint nterruptedly.
Over loo, 900 tons of rich ore are already
blocked out and prosecuting is being
pushed with vlgor, uncovering the
several veins. He is much pleased with
the progress made on the McClelland
tunnel, which is being bored to tap all
the mines in the mountain. 1t is al.
ready in over 1900 feet, and less than
1900 is required to reach the Brighton
property. When this is completed, the
Brighton mine will not be troubled with
water, as the tunnel will drain the mine
without the use of pumps, etc. 1t costs
81 ton to haul coal from the railroad
to the property and 50 to haul the ore
from the top Of the shaft. All this ex.
pense will be eliminated when the Nc
Clelland tunnel reaches the property.
