obserYarions Of a Teacher.

Nov. 1-3 Lead City gave to the teach

treats and one of the most successful
conventions in the history of the Edu

good things to delight the mind, eal

Hymalulu Property Showing UP Well

Judge Geo. M. Bennett, manager of
the Hymalulu property was in town this
forenoon on business. The Judge has
recently placed on the mine testing
mill, rotary grinder of about one ton
capacity. He keeps the same running
right along and is making thorough tests
of his ore, from which he is getting good
results. He had with him little ANAL
gam secured from recent ore tests, also
an unusually rich free gold specimen of
Hornbend schist in which he finds the
values. The gold in the specimen he
showed US is very fine. The ledge is of
considerable width, the Judge says, but
its fulness has not yet been ascer-
tained. The ore for the tests is taken
from an open cut where body of ore
of about 8 feet has been opened up and
the sampling of this ore body has re-
turned very satisfactory results and Mr..
Bennett thinks that by spring the devel-
opment will have sufficiently progressed
to warrant the erection of a reduction

of men. 1t consists of picking pine
cones, drying them and extracting the

PRO BONO PUBiICo.

We have heard much favorable COM
ment upon our suggestion of the estab-
lishment of an ore testing plant within
our city limits. While it will be uni
versal benefit to the community at large
IL will be of special benefit to every
person having mineral ground they
think worth developing. 1t will be a
boon to those not able to develop their
prospects on large scale as it would
furnish market for their ore, If it paid
only few cents above cost of produc-
ton. 1t would establish the fact that
We are in the mineral zone and by
proper treatment our ores made profit
able. A testing plant would determine
what mode would bring best results. At
anyrate it would be more satisfactory
than sending away from home for your
assays
We believe those to whom IL win be
the most advantage will readily see the
benefit to be derived from an ore testing
plant, aud will not hesitate to assist in
its establishment by donating cash, ma
terial or labor. We are confident the
more the question is agitated the more
feasible the project will appear.
AS we understand the proposition any
one having ore they desire tested, can
bring in any quantity from one pound
up and witness the modus operandi of
testing their samples in the laboratory,
or they can bring in from one to ten tons
and have a thorough mill test made.
Then they will know just what they
have, and can plan accordingly. 1t will
be no trouble to induce capital to invest
when the result of your work will prove
your assertions. 1t Is foregone conclu-
sion that profitable prospect will sell
at some price or other.
For 80 years Custer City has been Jog
ging along hoping each year that the
next would make her the mining me-
tropolis of the Southern Hills. But, alas,
our hope faded as each year waned with
no perceptible increase in wealth or
1t is time now we were
up-and-a-dolng. 1t is an old saying that
"the Lord helps those who help them
selves. We have waited too long for
others to help us-let's buckle down to
actual work and help ourselves awhile.
By united effort of every citizen we can
establish this ore testing plant. Then
mark this prediction of your Uncle
George-"that within two years from
the day the whistle blows for the first
time at the new ore testing plant Custer
City will have increased in population |
more rapidly than within the past five
years" But, it will take action, not
words alone, to accomplish this result.
We hope, within the next few weeks,
to proclaim to the world that our citis
zens have thrown off their lethargy-
have pulled off their coats, rolled up
their sleeves and gone to work, deter
mined to establish In our midst an in
dustry that will be of lasting benefit to
the community-an industry that win |
bring dollars to the Golfers of the poor
as we'll as the rich-an industry that
will bring the full dinner pail to the
miner and the mechanic; for when they
prosper every other avenue of business

An Opportunity to Secure Both Knowl-
edge and Entertainment.

edge and Entertainment.
With big crops, fat bank accounts and
with prosperity reigning supreme in
every country home, it is the duty of
every farmer to look around for oppor-
tunities whereby his children can gain
impressions that will prove beneficial to
them through life and il by taking ad-
vantage of these, he can, at the same
time, secure for himself and his good
wife much needed rest and recreation, it
would seem that such an opportunity
should appeal to him. This opportunity
is offered in connection with the Inter-
national Live Stock Exposition which
will be held in Chicago from November
9th to December 10th. The champions
of the leading shows of the world, in
fact, the finest specimens of cattle,
horses, sheep and swine that the world
produces will here compete for suprem-
acy and final honors. Do you know
what this means? Can you realize what
liberal education such a collection
produced by the worlds foremost feed
ers and breeders means to your boys?
The best brains, the greatest masters
of the live stock industry, the foremost
live stock specialists will here demon
strate what can be accomplished, and
shrewd farmers will begin to think OF
these things and endeavor to make ar
rangements so that they can profit by
the teachings of this great international
Exposition.
The coming show gives promise of be-
ing the greatest of this splendid series OF
events, and the management is planning
to offer program that will far eclipse
anything that has ever been offered in
the past-delightful music, dashing per.
formances and brilliant evening enter.

opportunities unequaled in the world.
Where can a greater combination be
found at,such nominal outlay of money
Education, entertainment, a pleasure

plan a pleasant surprise for the folks at
home and take advantage of these ex-
ceptional opportunities?

He Is Improving,

Rear Admiral John X. Barton, L. S. A,
retired, was taken i'll while leaving the
Mills building, 18th street and Pernsyl-
vania avenue, yesterday afternoon and
removed to the Naval Medical School
Hospital.

and it was stated at the hospita, at noon
today that Admiral Barton was doing

stroke-much more serious, however-last
fall at the navy yard, Philadelphia, and
was confined to a hospital In that city
for several weeks. He held the Office of
chief of the bureau of steam engineering

TIME GROWS SHORT.
Applicants for Space in Argentine
Exposition Must File at Once.

The United States minister at Buenos
Aires. Argentine Republic, in a telegram
to the State Department, states that ap-
plfcations for space on the part of manu-
facturers In the International exposition
which Is to be held in that city from
Nay to November. 1870 must be filed not
later than next Tuesday. Unless the spe-
cial building assigned to the United States,
which has 5000 square meters of floor
space, Is filled with exhibits it will be
necessary to divide it with several other
countries. AS this exposition is regarded
s the most important ever held in Latin
America, and In country where there
is q large field for building up market
for manufactured products, the State De-
partment expresses the hope that Amer
lean manufacturers, especially those hav-
ing to do with railway and land trans
portation, will take advantage of this
opportunity to make creditable exhibits
II is suggested that on account of the
very short time remaining appl,ca-
tiOns for space should be made immedi-
ately by telegraph to the director of the
bureau of American republics in this city,
who has charge Of the arrangements, and
will forward applications by cable.
