Mr.. Mcintyre of Joplin is in
stalling a big pump in the mill
shaft at the Hannibal & St. Joe
property and. will start this prop
erty up at once.
The richest ore yet found. is
being taken out at the Big Four
shaft, on the Sunburst Mining
Company's lease, by ]. W.
Barnes, who is hand jigging the
fine, while the rough stuff will
be milled.
The Lucille property is again
under operation. Drifting is be-
ing pushed so as to connect No.
and No. 2 shafts in order to
get air for the men,. AS soon as
this is done the production will
be pushed to keep the mill going.
The Tennessee Metal Produc-
ing Company sold a Car of ore
from its McAllister mill during
the past week. This property
is making a good record for pro-
duction and is one of the mills
that is kept going steady each
day.
Many of the mines are down
in the Miami camp on account
of water, which is proving strong
in the north part of the camp.
However, it is expected that a
new pumping station, which is
now being installed to the north,
will take all the water, SO as to
allow all properties to again get
back into their usual large pro-
duction.
Active work has been begun
underground at the Mascotte
mine, where the ore that is mined
will be sent to the Memphis mill
for cleaning. This mine is con-
nected up with the above mill by
the longest tram in the camp.
The south shaft on the Memphis
property will be put into action
at once and will help to keep the
Memphis mill busy. The new
rolls have been installed in the
Memphis mill and it is now in
A 1 condition for operation.
Billy Earls who Is drilling al
1.-THE Newlands lease, reportsstrik-
ing several fine holes showing
thirty, feet of rich ore at the 130-
foot level. This drilling is be-
ing done to the southwest of the
present milling plant and shows
that the ore dips to the south
and southwest, as the mill shaft
showed the ore at 10S feet from
the surface. A new shaft will
be sunk to the southwest to work
the lowest deposit. Messrs Christ
Newland and Charles Spencer
inspected the property during
the past week and selected the
Iocation for the new shaft.

The base price of zinc ores for
the past week has been at $43,
without variation. The coal
strike will effect the production
quite materially, especially at
mills not on or convenient to the
gas line or those connected up
with the electric supply plants
of the district. In the Baxter
Ouapaw camp where the gas is
not yet connected up, is indie
pendent of the coal situation as
plenty of oil is available. and as
most of the mills are equipped
for oil this puts them outside Of
any hardship from a shortage Of
coal. Lead ores were nOminally
quoted at $50, but little was sold
at this price. -
A splendid activity is now
shown in this camp; most, of the
mills are in operation or being
put in condition to run. d.

THE EYE OF AN ARTIST.
A Case Where II Was More Reliable
Than a Sailors Optic.

Mr. n. Chevalier. the well known
artist who accompanied the late Duke
OF Edinburgh on many of his travels,
was once going from Dunedin TO Lyt-
telton. New Zealand, by steamer. Anx-
ious to catch the earliest glimpse Of
the coast, he went on deck at dawn
and was alarmed TO see that the yes
sci was heading straight on to the
land. Calling the officers attention to
the fact, he was told that 1t was only
fog bank. The artist maintained his
point. but the second officer looked
and confirmed his mate.
The artist then said, We'll, gentle
men, will back my artists eye
against your sailors eye. and ! say
that what you mistake for fog bank
is low range of hills. and there is a
range of mountains appearing above
them
But he was only laughed at until the
captain. coming on deck. found in
the growing light that the artist was
right and the seamen wrong. The
NtSScl WIS out OF us course, ana there
was only just time to avert disaster.
The helmsman was dismissed in dis
grace and the course given to a new
steersman, but the vessels head still
pointed landward-the compass was
all wrong.
The cause was discovered later. A
commercial traveller had brought a box
of magnets on board and deposited
them in a stern cabin. causing what
might have been fatal detection Of
the compass.
To return to the question Of inter-
probation, the artist was dealing with |
the appearances which his eye was
trained TO see and his mind to inter- |
pref. A speck on the horizon might |
have remained mere speck to him |
long after the sailors had interpreted |
the speck into vessel Of definite rig. |
There can be little doubt that the
trained eye is accompanied by a sort
Of mental seeing-an instinct outrun.

About Christmas time once the some

was on his way to his old home at
Lanesboro, Mass. On the train were
three travelling men who wanted q
game Of whist. One OF them pointed
to unpretentious and unprepossessing
Josh and said:
Lets ask Rube into the game and
comb some OF the hayseed out Of his
hair"
my venerable friend" he said as
he laid his hand on the shoulder of the
old man, will you join US in a game
Of whist?"
"Ya-as: we will get there in abaout
three hours" replied Josh. putting his
hand to his ear.
you don't seem to understand" said
the young fellow in louder tone. 1--WE
want you to take hand
"Ya-as; the stand O. corn has been
unusual good this year"
"My friend" the young fellow then
yelled, twill you take hand in a
gamer"
"Ya-as; was tellin' Mandy this
mornin' how plenty an how fat the
game is this year"
"Oh. you go to the devil" shouted
the young fellow as he took his seat.
while the other drummers unmerci-
fully pestered him.
When Lanesboro was reached the
old fellow got up, handed one of his
Josh Billings cards to each one of the
trio and then said to his interlocutor:
young man, while you are travel
ing on your cheek don't get any hay
seed on your clothes or the other
drummers will take you for Rube
and get you into some game and skin
you."-Pittsburg Dispatch.
