Msrriaue Among the Eztees.

The Aztecs. the most civilized peo-
ole of the new world at the time Of its
discovery. had q curious marriage Gus
tom. The ceremony was performed
by priest. who took the hands Of the
bride and bridegroom. asking them II
they would marry.
He then took q corner OF the Wo-
! mans veil and the mans robe and
knotted them together, and so they
were led to the bridegroom's house. A
fresh fire was then kindled on the
hearth, and around this fire the priest
caused the bride to 60 seven times.
The welded couple then sat down To-
gether. and SO was the marriage con-
tracted An inventory was also made,
which the father Of the bride after
ward retained, Of all the man and
wife brought together, OF furniture TOT
the house. of land, OF jewels. orna-
ments and clothes. Then If it CHANGED
that the couple were divorced (as was
common among the Aztecs when man
and wife did not agree) they divided
the goods according to the portion eacn
had brought to the other, both man
and wife having liberty to marry again
whom they pleased. or the cn1ldren
of the marriage the daughters were
given to the wife and the sons to the
husband. 1t was enacted upon pain
Of death that the divorced couple were

Mining Interests Will Look Up

Uncertainty of tariff regulations
as to the duties on lead, zinc. cop
per and other base metals. the pre-
valllng low price of silver and per-
haps an over production of many
mineral products has had quite a
depressing effect on mining in
many parts of the country. Such
is to be expected att times if for no
other reason than that the world is
governed by law AS old as the
universe, that of supply and de-
mand.
There are other laws, or business
rules that must be taken into ac-
count when conditions similar to
the present occur. One is that
there must always be a seed time
before there can be a harvest. The
mining people OF the nation under
stand this latter law and many of
them are now planting or acquir-
ing interests in base metal mines
and developing the same, knowing
full we'll that the time will come
when they will reap the harvest.
Especially is this true AS as inter
ests in lead property is concerned.
The mining journals and the daily
papers are continually telling us OF
new discoveries in copper, silver
and zinc but who has read or heard
recently of the discovery Of new
lead mine Or district? From pres
emf appearances there will be a
scramble for lead interests sooner
or later that will astonish the un-
thinking person.-Orator- Outburst.

Stevens County Marble Quarr!es

4 new company for the quarry
ing and marketing Of Stevens
county marble is being organized
here, and will be launched in the
early spring as the Spokane Marble
Company. Allen HAYNES. an East
ern man, who has recently come to
spokane to make his home, is
backing the project. and will own
the controlling interest. 1t is
stated that over 100000 cash is
involved in the deal.
The plan is to consolidate the
Verde Antique Marble Company
with the Columbia River Marble
Company. The Verde Antique, it
will be remembered, was formed
by the creditors of the old United
States Marble Company in an Ell
fort to save something from the
wreck If that concern.
Over 100000 was put into the
United States Company by the
shareholders, who lost every dollar
OF this when the stock was wiped
out. The property was turned
over to the creditors, who formed
the Verde Antique, and issued
bonds to the amount Of about
$4,000 to the preferred creditors
for labor. liens, receivers fees. etc.
