TIC records, and the laxlty of parish
registers, has sometimes proved an in
valuable aid. How little we could have
spared, for instance. that volume in
which Milton recorded the very horT
and minute of his children's birth.
Ash wood was sometimes used in
the manufacture of Bible boxes, but
oak was the most popular from its
superior powers of resistance, for we
must remember they were at times in
the possession of ecclesiastical stal.
warts, the vigor N whose preaching
was sometimes calculated by the
amount of damage done to the pulpit
furniture.
Throughout the commonwealth, and
by the general convention of 1856,
travelling ministers were gratuitously
supplied with Bibles, very expensive
item and in struggling pastorates the
book, with its appropriate Golfer, often
formed the sole effects of a new con
venticle. 1t is curious fact that
Bibles were sometimes subjected to
railing, even in those austere days.
In 1875 one Dr. Wilde bequeathed $3.50
for the purpose of providing Bibles to
be rafiled among the poorer brethren.

Miss Anne's sensitive pride had
prompted her to wave aside the
proffered edibles, but as Loring re-
placed the packages in the basket she
watched him all unconscious of the
fact that her eyes were wistful. First

ENTIRELY NEW SHELTER.
(Douglas Irte-nationaD

According to a statemeent made on the street today 1t has already been agreed by the Calumet 6 Ari- zona Mining company to build an entirely new smelter, to take the place of the old plant of that com pany now in operation just west of this city Of course this determina- ton could not be verified until al- ter tn edirectors have placed their o. K on the plans; sill 1t is de clared that the plans for an entirely new smelling plant are now very iearly complete. and it is claimed that the old plant will continue in opera ton until the new one is complete.
 The plans, according to this gen. tleman. include two monster blast furnaces, to be sixty feet long anc five reverbatories. McDougle roast CTS and several other new features. The building of such a plant would of course require much time and would give employment to a large number of building mechanics, thus adding much to the trade of Doug las.
 1t is known that the company is getting ready to either remodel the present plant CT build new one. After the annual meeting something definite may be expected regardine their decision.

MINING INSECURE.
Douglas InternationaD

Mining men coming in from the south report that there is a growing feeling of insecurity among the smal Ter American mining camps of Sc nora and Chihuahua. owing to the frequent visits that are being paid to these camps by small bands of insur- rectos. Scarcely a day goes by now that one or more of these camps gre not visited by small or larger bands who take what food and pro visions they require and sometimes give receipts, but at others refarin from doing even this.
 The report has reached Douglas that Las Chispas has decided tC close, that the Por Venir, the prop- erty of ". L. Rynerson has beer again visited and that the San Mar cos has received several visits froS the rebels. Other camps are men toned as having been called upoH to entertain insurgentsf
 Thus far beyond the taking Of provisions, arms and horses. no haTE has been done, but as the rebels indulge in shooting at night it is occasionally fear that some eviS rs suits will follow if, or when any of the bands get drinking or carousins

TESTS FOR vANApIuM.

So many letters asking for tests of yanadium have been received by the U. s. Geological Survey that the following tests. which have been found effective, are given:
 To test for vanadium, the mineral may be digested with nitric acid. If hydrogen peroxide be added to ;he resulting liquid, a brown color will appear if vanadium is present.
 Some vanadium minerals are alsl attacked by hydrochloric acid and by sulphuric acid. To the solution resulting from the use Of either acid, hydrogen peroxide may be added and brown solution will show the presense of vanadium, as when nj tric is used. If either hydrochloric or sulpburic acid is used, metallic zinc may be added after hydrogen peroxide. and a bright blue color will be given by the reduction of 1anadium compounds. The same sf- feet can be obtained in a nitTic-acid solution by adding sulphuric acid evaporating to white fumes, diluting and adding metallic zinc. II pre- ferred, hydrochloric acid instead of sulphuric acid may be added to the nitric-acid solution. but in that case evaporation must be carried almost 70 dryness at least twice to ge rid Of the nitric acid. The liquid may then be diluted and more acid added, followed by zinc az de scrited.
 At times the tests given above are not wholly satisfactory In such cases, if the apparatus is at hand, through a filtered solution made alkaline with ammonia pass hydro gen sulphide tH2S) gas until the solution is saturated. The solution will take a fine garnet or deep wine color if vanadium is present. Cop per. if present. is precipitated as a sulphide and does not interfere with the test.
 If commercial iron sulphide for ,iakiug hyoIesen sulphide gas is rot a, hand. iron pyrites, salena, or zinc biendc may be used with hydrs eiscric acid. The only acces sories needed are two tes. tubes, one of whish is closed with a cork h which Is inserted a bent tube the other end of which clr be placed in the solution to be fvztcd for va na Hum.
