BLACK RANGE
MINES ACTIVE
Promoters Installing Treat
ing Plant-Old Camp
Takes on New Life.

Vance Carothers a mining engineer,
who has just returned from the Black
Range mining district. Il miles north
of Fairview, n. NJ, states while the
Black Range camp is an old camp, it
is in reality a new one, for the reason
that heretofore the high cost of trans
portation only permitted the shipment
Of $50 ore and upward. Conditions are
changing, as the Black Range Reduction
works is now putting in custom mill
to treat the ores of lower grade The
plant will be north of Fairview and will
be in operation in about so days.
PrOxpectOrs Busy.
Mr. Carothers also suites there are
some very prominent veins which the
old prospectors have been working and
there are et least II shafts down over
100 feet. The deepest shaft in is the
Ivanhoe, which is down about 800 feet.
From my observations made there"
he said, the ores will go about SIS to
$40 in gold and silver. the gold values
predOminating. I have located some
veins and the samples of ore run a.
least $50 a ton. I met several prominent
mining engineers there last winter and
also on nay last visit and all are en-
thusiastic. This reduction plant COM
pany has bought and remodeled an old
mill, but it will also erect a 100 ton
custom mill.
THE United States treasury mine has
reached a depth of 400 feet, and IS in
richer ore than above. It is the Chloride
camp and on the same mineral belt
where I was. The United States treas
ury vein can be traced Is miles to the
north end OF the Black Range and a
number OF prominent mines have been
located on It.
Better Than Cripple Creek.
81 was q pioneer of the Cripple Creek
district, Colo, and 1 think the Black
Range camp is away ahead at the same
stage Of development. Everything de-
ponds on the new reduction plant. The
ores are there in abundance.
''Mr. lobe, of Kansas City, is oper-
ating a rich Eureka mine near the mill
site, and working 20 miners. The treas
ury mine Is working so men, and the
Black Range Reduction company is
working 10; Minnie and Bullion nine,
besides about Is men on the new mill.
The Colorado Springs company has
taken q hand on the Ivanhoe mine John
McConagy an old Cripple Creek mining
man, has hand on the Gold Reserve,
and Mr. Sisty has hand on the Repub-
lie mine.

Washington. - The commerce

announced that United States Dis
trict Judge Page Morris, holding
court in Iowa, had decided the fed
eral law regulating the hours Of the
service of train crews on interstate
railroads is unconstitutional. The
Illinois Central, the defendants, at
tackled the constitutionality of the
law on thirteen different grounds.
The principal reliance was upon a
decision of the United States SUI

On account of the inability Of the
attorneys to obtain a hearing Of the

the interstate commerce commission
suspended its order, effective July 1,
until July IL.

Christmas Pies.

In England. Yorkshire Is still the
stronghold Of vast Christmas pies that
trace their lineage far beyond the Nor
man conquest into the dim feasts OF
Saxon kings aud Danish freebocters
A rather quaint note. written IN 1888,
makes mention Of the "wains" Tor wag-
ons) grooming about Christmas time
under load Of these pies and adds.
AT such times the hostess Of q we'll
frequented inn Of the old school will
construct a pie Of the circumference
rivalfng her own, and the county news
paper will record its dimensions
One such 'hostess Of the old school,
is immortalized by a famous though
slightly profane epitaph in a Yorkshire
churchyard running as follows:
Here lies the body Of Mary Ann shoven.
She was versed in the arts
or cakes. pies and tarts
And the mystical rites Of tho oven.
When she'd lived long enough
She made her last puff
A puff by her husband much praised.
Now here she doth lie
And make a mud pie
In the hope that her crust may be
raised

Mid the splendor of His churches,
Where the music of His choirs,
Swelled and rose with wondrous pow

Almost to the pointed spires;
Where the songs of cheer were sound
Where the festive board was

Where the rich man of his bounty
Gave the beggar aims and bread.
Then my soul grew weary seeking,
And my heart was filled with pain,
For 1t seemed we could not find
That our quest was all in vain.
Then We passed where men were
Fastening

Pressing with unheeding feet.

TOLEDO MAYOR TELLS SOME PLAIN TRUTHS ABOUT CITY

The revelations, as they are called
though by this time they should nave
ceased TO be revelations, and nave

try-made by the newspaper clippings
before me are the expected indications
OF the deeper, underlying causes. The
superficial observer sees In them
merely corrupt council; and, from
the fact that councilmen have taken
brides, he makes the daring deduction
that some one gave them the brides;
he sees that councilmen have been
grating, and then is naively aston
ished by the revelation that some bust
ness men higher up, although not very
much higher up, have been caught anc
publicly disgraced. He sees, too, a
brave and fearless prosecutor who Is

are the usual predictions that out OF
all this there is TO come to Pittsburg

Pittsbura the Most Moral Of Towns.
But beyond all this--and here |
think touch on the real story-there
is the peculiar temper and tendency
Of Pittsburg. Pittsburg Is an artistic
center; fortunes have been lavished
in endowing schools and universities
and palaces for art, on symphonies
and oratorios. All the expressions or
q new, ruling plutocracy are easily
discernible here, as in all such epochs
OF society recorded In history; just,
for instance, as Ferrero describes
them in the last phases OF the Roman
republic. And when Carnegie returns
he sheds tears and wrings his hands
because OF the corruption that has
been exposed, and he fails, as many
In Pittsburg seem to fail, to note the
necessary, II subtle, relation that must
exist between all this corruption and
debauchery, between all this art and
music, and-shall say?-the tariff
on steel.
This, however. isn't all; though this
Is part. Pittsburg Is a moral town;
the nest moral, in the conventional
sense, in all America. She won't even
allow the kids TO play baseball on a
back lot on Sunday. A woman, an old
friend of mine who lives in Pittsburg,
said: 81 think It very unfortunate
that the Survey was published. II
overlooks Pittsburg's good points. For
instance, Pittsburg has more churches
than any city OF its size In America.
More people of our class go to church
