Cohen located rich vein He had resources
his hands and those OF the two
helpers he could hire with his small means. He
selected the richest spots, blasted and picked away
at them until he had enough choice ore to fill
couple of strong handbags with the bits of rock.
He went to New York, had the Smeted, and
with the proceeds came back to Cobalt and did the
thing again, until he had accumulated
enough cash to go at his work in a bigger way.

a Rernhardt Trick.

Nine. Sarah Bernhard, who is sup
posed to be something of an artist as
well as an actress, was recently called
upon in one of her marvellous crea-
tons to enact the role of a sculptor,
and to model certain bust in view OF
the audience. This fairly electrified
the critics, but when going into rhap-
sodies over the technical skill in han
ding the clay which Nine. Bernhard
exhibited they showed that they knew
little of the artistic tricks of actors
and actresses; as matter Of fact, she
does nothing of the, kind. The bust
is modelled and baked, and over 1t is
placed damp clay of the same color
This the talented actress merely pulls
off, exposing the beautifully modelled
head underneath.

State Will Vote on Amendments.
Three amendments to the con-
st1tution will be submitted to the
voters of the state at the November
election, one to do away with the
decennial census and providing that
the apportionment of legislative dis
tricts shall be made upon the basis
of the enumeration by the national
government; one providing that COM
pensation OF members of the legisla-
ture shall be $1,000 instead of $500;
and a third which authorizes the state
to appropriate moneys for the purpose
of acquiring, preserving and develop
ing the waterpowers and forests Of
the state.
The constitutional provision for the
enumeration of population requires
that it be made every ten years, and
the ten-year period falls just five
years after the decennial census by
the national government.
The original constitutional provision
for the compensation of members of
the legislature was that each should
receive $3.50 per day Snd ten cents
per mile, going and coming by the
most usual route. In 1867 the consti-
tuition was amended providing that
the pay should be $3.50 per year, with
the ten cents per mile. In 1881 the
pay was again increased to $500 per
year.
