LOCAL PEOPLE OWN IT.

The Sentinel is in receipt of a copy
of the Idaho Springs Mining Gazette
in which appears an extended notice
concerning the great development
work done on the Mint group of
claims. owned by j. U. Harris and
other Grand junction people and To-
Gated near the town of Silver Plume.
The work of constructing a large
tunnel has been under way for some
time. The property is proving to be
very rich. j. U. Harris, of this city,
has charge of the developing work.
From all accounts the property prom
ises to prove to be one of the richest
and most valuable group of claims
in the Silver Plume section.
Following an extended description
of the effective developing work that
has been and is being done, the
Gazette says:
MIR. j. u Harris, practical min
ing man who was resident of Clear
Creek county in the early days of
mining, is manager for this company
and conducts all work as economic
ally as it is possible to have it done.
Electric power for operating the ma
chinery is obtained from the plant of
the United Hydro Electric company
at Georgetown at low cost for the
power.
The people in this vicinity are much
interested in the progress of this
work, feeling that 1t means much for
the development of section that
gives splendid indications of yielding
large returns when once opened up,
and all wish the company and its
manager the success which they so
richly deserve.

The proceedings of the city council at
the meeting held last week and publish
ed in full in this weeks issue, should be
read by the taxpayers and the citizens
of the town. The report of the action
taken by the council in reducing the
bonded indebtness of city is unmistak-
ably the most gratifying of any that has
been issued from the city hall for some
time. The business judgment displayed
by the council in taking:up these bonds,
of course, is commendatory but where
the full measure of; praise: lies is in the
fact that the present city sadministra-
ton has conducted the1 affairs of the
city so economically that there is a sur
plus sufficient to permit of these bonds
being taken up within the short space
of less than a year. The majority of
the aldermen now conducting the num-
icipal affairs were not; vested with the
reigns of government until last April
and since that time needed improvements
have not only been made but large
slice of the Republican debt which came
to the Democratic aldermen as herit-
age upon assuming Office is now wiped
out. A most creditable showing during
short period of time, isn't it?

Disappointed Friendship,

In the matter Of friendship, I have
observed that disappointments arises
chiefly, not from liking our friends too
WE'LL or thinking of them too highly
but rather from an over-estimate Of
their liking for an opinion of us; and
that if we guard ourselves with suffi-
cient scrupulousness of care from er-
ror in that direction, and can be con-
tent and even happy to give more af-
fection than we receive, we may man
age to go through life with consisten-
cy and constancy, unembittered by
that misanthropy which springs from
revulsions of feeling. -, Charlotte

Methods to Prevent Breakdown.

Very heavy are the burdens of some
of the high officers in Great Britain,
and leaders have been driven to Gu
rious methods to prevent breakdown.
When Robert Lowe was chancellor of
the exchequer he laid down 80 feet
of asphalt and got himself pair Of
roller skates. That was his method
of mastering liver and the fatigues
of office. Earl Spencer, when in Ire

A Stunning Surprise.

Congressman George w. Taylor was
talking in Demopolis, Ala, about the
hard times.
Hard times are bound to be full of
unpleasant shocks and stunning sur
prises," he said. II remember the last
panic and a sermon that Mobile pas
tor preached.
THE pastor, in powerful discourse.
urged economy ana retrenchment on
his congregation. In view of the hard
times there should be no extrava-
gance, no useless expenditure, he said.
but every outgo ought to be pared
down.
His strong sermon had a swift and
unexpected effect. The congregation,
before dispensing, held church meet
ing and unanimously reduced the
mans salary from $4,000 to $1,500."

For British Warships.

The British admiralty has instructed
the commanders of all ships OF war
furnished with wireless telegraph ap-
paratus to telegraph to meteorological
stations with which they may be in
communication full details concerning
the weather at sea. This new branch
of the English meteorological service
has already proved valuable, and it is
believed that its Importance will con-
tinuaily increase. Weather informa-

in the British isles because the great

Effective Foo Shifter.

A very effective fog shifter, by the
way, is good snowstorm. Last boxing
day the snow that fell on the roof of
the Lancet office was analyzed. and
the result compared with a similar
analysis of snow that fell in Kent. The
result showed that the London snow.

tar and organic ammonia, fetched

Rev. VIM. Millikan's lecture on the
Philippine islands at the Methodist
church Wednesday was one of the most
interesting and instructive talks on a
foreign country ever heard in this
city. Rev. Millikan served as first sar-
geant in the Spanish-American war and
did active service in the islands. He
was not engaged in any big battles but
had enough fighting with the Filipinos
to satisfy him. When he was not en-
gagged in suppressing the insurrection-
lists under Aguinaldo he was on police
duty in Manila. He was in the midst
of the Filipinos all the time and this
enabled him to become very conversant
with their habits, style of living, dress,
etc. Rev. Millikan was with the Goth
Kansas volunteers and his frequent
reference to that state led his audience
to believe that he was proud of the
fact that he halls from Kansas. This
seems strange and likewise surprising
to natives of the gloriously grand state
of Colorado.
