abandoned claims, many of which
have been sold for taxes and may
be obtained for a song. the number
of which as seen in the tax list is
shown to be in the hundreds. A
great many of these propositions
have large amounts of work done
and nave shipped quantities OF ore
in the past and will do SO again
when the proper operators get hold
of them. Good reasons may be cit
ed why these properties have quit
working, among which are mis-
management and ignorance, two Of
the first principles required in
operating a mine. Others were; a
lack Of funds to equip the mine
with machinery required, the los
ing of ore shutes, no mills to treat
the lower grade ores, on which The
exec ssive freight and high smelling
charges render more than one half
the mine production valuelrss.
Next season, after election is ov.

era of mine operating is to be ia

Rights OF Union
and Non.UNiON rlEN

In the settlement OF the Uold-
field mining and labor troubles,
United States District Judge Far
rington decided several points of
Interest to miners and to union and
non union lal orers. In An notion
for injunction by the Goldtield
Consolidated Mines Co, against
the Goldheld Miners union, Judge
Fartington established The princi-
pie that the agreement between the
mine operators not to employ union
laborers was net An unlawful :on-
spiracy, He nlso held that work
men. when free from contract OBJ
legations, have \ legal right, singly
collectively. or as union, to quit
work or strike, and they have the
right to use such lawful means to
make the strike effective as are
not inconsistant with the rights OF
others; and on this theory they
have the right by peaceable nrgu-
men and persuasion to endeavor to
secure the cooperation OF non-
union men, employed in the place
of the strikers to quite work pro-
vided the persuasion is OF such a
character as to leave them free to
do as they please, and they were
not persuaded TO do that which
would be unls xful for them to do.
The principal was also established
that non-union miners have the
right to seek employment, to come
and 20 from their work, or to go
where they ehdpAe on the public
thorougkfsre, without molestation,
threats violeace, or insults Of any
kind and without being picketed.
against their will, to lister to per-
suasion or arguments. And thss
striking union miners who assail I'd
non -uuion miners with threats, Fidi
cule, or insult, or, who followed
them to or from their work with
vile language and abusive epitbets,
in order to induce or compel tn ham
to quite work, or refrain from offer
ing 20 work, were guilty OF unlaw-
full conduct. That my attempt to
intimidate a person in order to
compel him to refrain from exer-
cising legal right, is unlawful.
That peaceful picketing is not only
possible, but permissible, and 30
lonx as it is confined strictly and
in gnod faith to the gaining of in

ion and argument, it is not forbid.

Thie Office is in receipt of a well
written thesis by Prof. Royal Pres
ton Jarvis, professor Of Mining and
Metalluruy at the University OF
Tennessee, located at Knoxville.
The subject mntter discussed Is
that Of ore jigginx or the concen-
tration Of varioua ORES BY me,ns OF
the jiw the several minerals which
compose the ore are separated from
each other by the different spec
ihc gravsties Of the materials con.
bined.
1t is evident that the professor
has given long snd careful study
to the subjec ct, Ss also, invented II
new machine for this method Of
which promises to
surpsss anything ever used in this
or the older mining countries Of
the world. The Article is printed
in pamphlet form and was read last
month before the American So
ciety Of Mining Engineers.
Royal has been a diligent and a
careful student and today stands at
the head Of his profession. He was
graduated some years back from
the Golden School of Mines, after
which he went into the field to OBJ
tain practical knowledge, in which
he attained great ability and wide
experience in this and other states
of the American continent.

ha. Paid Million. In Dividends

According to recent report on
operations for the past year ending
with May last. Thomas Walsh of
the Camp Bird mine. received 34o,
600 dollnrc as his share OF the divi-
dends paid by the property during
the year. 1T would seem that Mr..
Walsh retained about one third
interest in the mines which were
sold to an English syndicate and
from which he received over mil
lion dollars in dividends since the
Transaction WAS closed and the
company formed, which Was in 1892
The total dividends to date have
exceeded the capitalization OF the
corporation. This is certainly n
remarkable record for this PROPOSE
ton which for nearly quarter OF
a ccntuary laid idle and was con-
sidered az worthless by the original
discoverers and locators OF the mine

 The daughter of Hermione and of the dead husband meets, at the beginning of this new story, the son of her father by the ruined woman whose father had mur- dered Maurice. There is something which draws these two together and upon which something MT. Hichens continually runs his theme.
 Artois loved Hermione, the widow, but she would not marry another man-of course not--loving as she did her former husband But in the end everything comes out all right; for Artois, under the master treatment of Mir Kitchens, differ ent from the usual course of writers, in graduates himself with the lady of his love, not by convincing her of the un- worthiness of the old love, but by con yincing the widow that Maurice did love her in his mans way, and In the place of departed spirits still pines for her for giveness. A different treatment, an att tractive, new one, too, is the argument of Artois that the widow should accept the new love (ArtoisD as a new way by which she can open broader compre- hension of love in all its phases than woman's way alone in the world would never do.
