MINERS STILL

Advices from Ely, New. state that
probably ten days more will be re-
quired before the resucers reach
Brown, Mcdonald and Bailey. the
three miners who have been i'm
prisoned since December l in the
Alpha shaft of the Giroux mine
at Ely. 1t is likely that the men
will have been six weeks in their
tomb-ike prison before they can be
freed They are able to talk with
their rescuers over the mine tele-
phone and declare that they are
very we'll satisfied with their
quarters and that there is no partic-
ular hurry about getting them out.
Water and food is sent down to the
men through a six-foot pipe, and
they have considerable room for ex-
ercise. Air is constantly forced in
to them. To while away the time
the men occasionally hold vocal
concerts, singing over the telephone
wires for the benefit of those
above.

NATIONAL BANK
QUITS BUSINESS

New York, Jan. 3.-A meeting Of
the stockholders Of the Beaver Ma
tional Bank, Beaver and Pearl
streets, will be held tomorrow to
ratify the action Of the directors in
voting to liquidate, and the bank
will go out of existence. Gaylord
Wiltshire, known as the millionaire
socialist" and the editor Of a So
cialist magazine, has been acting
president of the bank since George
VI. Coffin, the president, became i'll
of nervous prostration just before
the financial panic began and had
to go to California. According to
Mr.. Wiltshire, the directors found
that it was hopeless to attempt to
continue in business at profit to
the stockholders, and as here was
enough money on hand to pay all
depositors and settle up the affairs
of the bank in full, it was thought
best 10 retire from business.

THE END OF THE PLAY.

"7HE play is done-the curtain drops
Slow falling to the prompters
bell;
II A moment yet the actor stops
And looks around to say farewell.
1t is an irksome word and task.
And when he's laughed and said his say
He shows, as he removes the mask,
A face that's anything but gay.
One word eye yet the evening ends.
Let's close 1t with a parting rhyme
And pledge a hand to all young friends,
AS fits the merry Christmas time.
On life's wide scene you, too. hove parts
That fate ere long shall bid you play
Good night! With honest gentle hearts
A kindly greeting go alway!
Good night! I'd say the griefs, the joys,
Just limited in this mimic page,
The triumphs and defeats of boys,
Are but repeated in our age.
I'd say your woes were not less keen,
Your hopes more vain, than those Of
men,
Your pangs or pleasures of fifteen
At forty-five played DER again.
I'd say we suffer and we strive
Not less nor more as men than boys
With grizzled boards at forty-fve.
AS erst at twelve in corduroys.
And if in time of sacred youth
We learned at home to love and pray,
Pray heaven that early love and truth
May never wholly pass away.
And in the world. aS in the school,
I'd say how fate may change and shift,
The prize be sometimes with the fool,
The race not always to the swift;
The strong may yield, the good may fall,
The great man be a vulgar clown,
The knave be lifted over all,
The kind cast piti!essly down
Come wealth or want. come good or Ill,
Let young and old accept their part
And bow before the awful will
And bear it with an honest heart.
Who misses or who wins the prize.
Go, lose or conquer as you can,
But If you fall or if you rise
Be each, pray God, a gentleman.
