CIRCUS PERFORMERS.
The Real Dangers With Which They
Are Concerned.

The individual point of view of the
circus performer toward his work is
full of surprises. Rarely if ever is he
worried over the things that the audi
ence imagines make him uneasy and
never about his own equipment of
nerve. muscle and Judgment.
The bareback rider worries about
his horse. for the slightest deviation
from the animals customary course
and gait ruins a harmony between
horse aud rider. upon which depends
the success and ever the life of the
performer. The man on the trapeZe
is not at all disturbed at being so high
up in the air. The higher up he Is the
more security he feels that in case of
accident he will have time enough In
stinctively to twist his body into the
right position for falling into the net.
What worries him most is the fear of
some unsupported weakness in his ap-
paratus.
The animal trainer Is more afraid of
an accidental scratch from a good ma
tured bur blood poisoning claw than of
any actual conflict with an angry ami

A STRONG AFFIRMATION

found in all Of the upper surface
workings which was being done at
that time. Little money has been
spent (as compared with other
camps) to determine the best method
of extraction and saving Of the val
ues known to exist in the milling
material throughout the county at a
lower depth than was found in the
surface workings. One Of the reasons,
| am told, is that many Of the large
mine-owners were likewise the mill
owners and new milling methods in
stalled meant the loss and waste OF
the large sums Of money invested in
the present old amalgamation mills
built for the purpose Of treating the
oXidized ores years ago. But now,
with the advent OF modern concen-
trating mills to save the sulphides
of iron, copper, lead and zinc found
in : e lower workings in these mines
and the advent Of cyanide to treat
almost everywhere but here, and the
possibilities OF the Alsdorf-Draper
cyaniding process to treat the con-
centrates from the mills and obtain
the gold and silver values on the
spot, is making the owners OF mining
properties throughout the county
either start up their properties on
their own account, or interest capital
to assist them in the development OF
the mines. New York and foreign
capital, understand, Is heavily in
terested in developing some Of the
mining properties within the district
and with such success in the treat
ment Of their ores that large. up
to-date concentrating mill will be
