it's vein of precious ore would yield near
" all that you could mine from it for
eight hundred years!
1t is hard to believe that such a mine
OF stored wealth ever existed, aud yet
the Freiberg in Saxony is soon TO be
permanently shut down after practically
an uninterrupted exploitation since 1853.
During these past centuries the rich
veins nave formed one OF the most val.
liable sources of income OF the royal
house of Saxony, Since the serious de
probation in the value in silver, it has
become more and most manifest that it
was economically impossible to compete
with the richer ores of America. For
several years past instead of yielding
revenue, the mines have been operated
at loss to the state. For the current
year the deficit is $4,000. On April %
the Saxon minister of finance announced
that the mines would be definitely closed
in 1913. Many OF the older miners in
the employ OF the state will be pen
stoned.
Interesting in this connection, and in

Washington, July ll.--Lottery and
prize contest promoters are running ia
cover under sharp campaign now being
conducted against them by the post;
office department. II is estimated that
the close scrutiny now exercised over all
publications has resulted in the exclu-
sion from the second class privilege Of
periodicals aggregating 25000000 circu-
lation. These were all cheap publica-
tions, bullying with free offers and
prize contests akin 20 lotteries.
The department is also demanding q
stricter compliance with the second class
rules in regard to requiring paid-in-sd-
vance subscriptions before admitting to
entry.

cause there is hardly day that several

Among all the varieties of fake I'M
covered by this branch of the service,
by far the most plentiful is the astroiog

good many Gases, the same string OF
generalties about temperament, love

state the amount of stock sold or

Habits Of Deer.

Duluth-'It seems rather odd, but It
Is fact, nevertheless, that the best
deer hunting in northern Minnesota is
within ten or fifteen miles of the
limits of cities, towns and villages in
this section of the state,' said S. T.
Austin of Bemidji, a timber cruiser
who passed through Duluth yesterday,
THE farther one gets from civiliza-
ton, the better moose hunting he finds,
and the fewer deer. In what consider
the best moose districts of the state
there are no deer at ALL In some sec.
lions where there were none of these
animals five or six years ago, the hunt
ing is now good. The deer seem to
have gone in with the settlers.
Il don't know how to explain this,
unless by saying that tie deer are at
tracted by the gardens OF the settlers.
There is nothing dearer to deer's
heart than turnip patch, and he will
travel miles, and take all kinds of
risks, to get into one. know men who
make it a practice every spring to
plant turnips out in the woods, or
somewhere in burning, so they may
hunt deer there in the fall. All they
have to do is to watch along about
dusk, and the animals come in to
feed"

Premier Lindman and a number of
other very prominent men have visit

problem of locating the Great Inland

The inhabitants along the proposed

The managers of the prisons of
Sweden have decided that the dishes
from which the prisoners eat shall be
numbered so that certain prisoner
can be made to use the same dishes

is to prevent convicts from communi-
eating with each other by means of
marking the dishes.

so distant by whistling, using both
fingers and lips so expertly as to ex-

the conversation Ineligible. A Came

purpose. The instrument is rather
peculiar, its surface being divided in.
to two unequal portions, so that when
it is struck it yields two different

make this drum express any syllable
