rather climbed, the deck to the port side

up the grounded berg to which we were

against the Roosevelt and clear along her
port side if that thousand-ton berg had
been a toy The berg brought up against
another one just aft of us. and the Roose-
welt slipped from between the two like
creased pig.

genial Mark Twain, removed the
brightest light in American liter
allure, and one of the last of that
constellation that first arose in
the Far West. 1t was kindly
star that presided over his for
tunes. Born in pioneer simple
ity, intimately associated with
sturdy common people whom
Lincoln loved so well, his forma-
tive years were spent with stick
and rule. He has written enter
tainingly of life on the Mississippi
pi, OF the mighty west, of Kings
and courts, speaking always
with the whimsical jest and
laugh and shrewd, half satyric,
comment of the old morning
printer between whose nimble
fingers all the good and i'll of the
world passed in review.
He was a printer who made
good. Fortune was slow in com.
ing to him, but came in full mea-
sure. He has left an estate
worth 81 100000 clean honestly
made, without arousing a single
sentiment of envy or ill-will, and
without one act of wrong or OPP
preston. Better yet, he has left
millions of people in all lands
who part with him regretfully
and follow his passing with tend
er, loving thoughts.
Natural sorrows multiplied at
the last. His wife, his only son,
his gifted eldest daughter Susie,
and his afflicted youngest girl,
Jean, all died. Old time friends
departed. His only living daugh-

In A GLASS BY ITSELF.

There are those, we know, who
seriously doubt the quality of
the "class," and these, probably
with good reason, have cause to
condemn mining in all Of it's
branches, and are somewhat bit
ter against the industry because
their own adventures in this line
have not been at all successful.
This, in itself, is natural, and
this feeling permits of no argu-
ment; and still, it is not fair nor
just to Judge of an industry, of
any pursuit or occupation, by
the experience OF those who have
been misled, or who, through in
experience, have been foolish in
their investments. On the other
hand, a verdict should be rem
dered on the preponderence of
evidence.
According to government sta
tistics there are fewer failures in
mining than is the case in any
other pursuit and occupation.
There are far more failures in the
mercantile business, proportion
ately, than there are in mining.
In the professions the ratio of
failure and success is vastly in
favor OF mining; and, outside of
railroading, there are more big
men, more colossal fortunes in
terested in mining enterprises
than is the case in any other line
OF business or occupation.
And why? Because mining is
in a class by itself. Because,
when intelligently and system
atically followed, the returns are
far greater, far more rapid, than
can be gained by following any
other pursuit. TIE published
lists of dividend payments made
by mining companies prove this.
The great wealth accumulated
by those who follow mining as a
regular business confirm the
statement we have made; and
the formation ofgigantic trusts
and combines in order to control
the mining industry is further
proof that the industry is SIN a
Class by Itself. Mining Review.
