Wild DOGS In Africa.

The wild dogs in Africa are more
feared by the natives than any other
beasts, for, while they are not to be
digniiied by the term Of game. they
run in packs ana seem to know that
the native is afraid Of them. Native
burden bearers will often take their
chances in passing around a buffalo
herd and will hardly notice a lion. but
when they hear the howl Of the wild
dogs they drop whatever they may be
balancing on their heads and take to
the trees. There they are frequently
held captive until their cries summon
assistance. Crossing the trail Of large
game. these dogs often interfere with
the pursuit At distance the hunter
is likely to mistake them for leOpards
or some OF the smaller game, Intense
disgust follows the woundng Of wild
dog. for then. according to the ethics
Of the chase. the true sportsman must
pursue and kill the beast. These dogs
are not degenerates, but are natural
mongrels They have low bodies GOV
cred with hair OF coach dog growth,
bushy tails and powerful paws.-Mc.

TALBOT 3 MOORE CLOSE.
SAYS PIoCHE WILL BOOM.

According to a letter received by
Manager Owen A. Bailey of the
Demijohn company, a strike of high
grade has just been made at .-e
Foster property close into the town
of Phoebe. The letter says that four
feet of ore has been found under the
linme hill and that it is believed that
it is an extension of the famous old
Meadow Valley vein from which mil
lions we're shipped in the early days.
Alex Goliath of Salt Lake Is super
intendent of the property. He has
interested D. d. HOutz of Provo in
the property and since early in the
year they have been pushing work.
1t is futher declared in the letter
that things are on the move in Phoebe
as they have been before. The
starting of work on the Ohio-ken-
lucky and the Nevada1 Utah prop
critics has added new life to the COM
munity and o work has been
started on other claims.
At the Demijohn the drift on the
200 foot level has run into shale,
manganese and decomposed lime
such as has been the Gaping to the
ore in other parts of the mine. The
management feels confident that
within a few days twill hear of the
opening of a new vein if ore in this
promising little property.
At the Phoebe Golden Prince the
company has installed a new 60
horsepower engine and this is being
used On the compressor while the old
25-horsepower gasoline engine is be-
ing used for hosting. The property
is pushing work with greater energy
than ever before, and 1t is declared
that some big things may be expect
ed from this property.

NEW ERA COMING
FOR OLD MINES.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct.4.-It is
officially announced that the reports
of the leading Comstock mines are
now on the way from San Francisco
to Mr.. Mendals, the New York curb
agent, with a view of having these
properties listed on the New York
open market. From the plane under
way it is understood that the shares
of the Mexican, Potosi and Yellow
Jacket companies will figure as the
first of these properties to be listed
IN the open market.
The brokers in San Francisco, who
up to within the past six months had
still been trading Goldfeld and Tono-
pah issues, have all commenced trad
ing in these stocks, principally be-
cause they are constantly active and
are a big improvement over the rut
into which the other stocks have fall
len into. 1t is believed that New
York traders will appreciate the trad
ing features of these issues and a
market of considerable Importance
will be built up.
1t is pointed out that a number of
the private wires extending to the far
west from New York which have been
inactive of late regarding the arbi-
trating on mining shares, will again
get busy, as these stocks move all the
way from 10 to rs points a day when
they are at all active.
Most people associate Comstock
shares with violent assessments
which have been levied from time to
time for years on these issues from
which San Francisco brokers have
managed to make a comfortable liv-
ing. Conditions, howeved, regarding
this phase of the business have re-
Gently reached a marked change.
Eastern interests led by Franklin

Leonard. Jr., and the .Sturges coal
crowd of Pennsylvania, have secured
considerable interest in a number of
these properties and have. reached a
stage where the ore production in
many of the properties is being ac-
complished as a profitable basis.
Once these organizations are again
placed on a commercial basis. and Il
definite amount of tonnage ear be
counted on, the new era ON the Com
stock lode of which much has been
written in the past, will be an occom-
plished fact.
The fact that these shares are to
be listed on the New York market
will arouse a great deal of interest,
once this fact is universally known.
The fact that San Francisco brokers
are trading almost entirely in these
stocks will tend to increase the trad
ing features of these securities.-San
Journal of Commerce.

intendent of the new lease.
The property. as a wholssis looking
exceptionally well. Men are employ
ed in ore on three di1ferentlevel and
nearly enough ore has already been
extracted for a run at the conpay
mill at Mazzuma.t
The pumps are being put in order
and the first Of next week they will
start draining the shaft. On the first
of the month sonking of the incline
shaft will be commenced and this will
be continued for at least another 100
feet. sfe
At present no work is being done
on the fourth level, owing to the flow
of water which has been encountered
but with the workings pumped out
they will start a winze and an upraise
at the same time on the silver vein
which has been opened up. A con-
siderable quantity of ruby silver and
silver sulphides show in this vein and
it is believed that development will
open up as good a body of ore as the
Florence had at the 2O0-foot level.

CHASE WILD MAN TO SWAMP.

.FRANKLINVILLE, N. j., ~" ?!
A wild man, who had been a terror
to woman and children in this sec
ton, was captured between franklin
Vile and Porchtown this afternoon
by a. posse headed by Constable Low
der When pursued the man waved
his arms high in the air and with
unearthly yells rushed into the a
thick swamp, where none could fol-
low and it was necessary to secure
axes to cut him out. No one could
identify him, but from his good
clothes he is supposed to be some
we'll to do man who has become de-
mented and escaped from home. He
wore a three weeks growth of beard,
his eyes were bloodshot and he had
a cadaverous look. He refused to
eat, but greedily drank a large
quantity of water. Nothing was
found on him but a pipe. He had all
his pockets stuffed with leaves. He
was put in the lookup and will be
taken to the asylum.

CADETS PHYSIQUE
Serious Problem Confronts the In
coming Superintendent.

Annapolis. June 12--When Captain John "
Bowyer assumes the post Of superintendent Of
the Naval Academy next week, relieving Cap
tain Charles ]. Badger, who has been detached
at his own request, he will find an important
proposition growing out Of the physical condi-
ton Of the midshipmen waiting for him to
handle. That there is such question, and that
it is a serious one, cannot be denied Captain
Badger contends strongly that the physical con-
diton OF the midshipmen compares most favor
ably with that Of any body Of young men any
where and that any apparent defect IS due to
the higher standard maintained and the rigid
examinations, which develop troubles that at
other places are passed over.
board OF officers appointed by Captain Bad
ger recently reported that the midshipmen were
not IN rugged physical condition and went so
far as to recommend an hour of additional ex-
ercise, to take place about noon OF each day.
Captain Bowyer the incoming superintendent
must reach decision on the question IN which
there IS much public interest Friends Of mid
shipmen who have been prevented from enter
ing the service are insisting that defects which
were not apparent at the entrance examination
must have developed during the course, and
probably account OF something wrong with
the system. On the other hand Captain Bad
ger has called attention to the danger Of diulin-
ishing the amount Of mental work and profess
sional training required Of the midshipmen il
the standard Of the service is to be maintained
The matter is indeed a crucial one. and the
superintendent will deserve high praise il he
brings about fair settlement.
Captain Badger has recently pointed out that
most OF the physical failures are due to eye
trouble He asserts that this is because such
high standard Of eyesight must be demanded Of
a naval officer. IN year or two he said re-
