NEW MINING LAW.

The elect of the new mining law cannot be felt near Nome as il will Ue 1eit In new districts in the interior. but IL viii have some immediate effect even here and may have d very de- eided effect on some parts of this pen- InsuId where creeks still remain to Oe dsseoN cred. in parts of the terri tory around the Yukon river IL Will HIedn much quicker development even oi some camps already discover cd. In those places today thousands ot acres Of placer ground remain idle III the hands of men who would never us hole big enough for a grave. by the Hrst of January great DOT ton Of such holdings win run out and other men win be given the op- poTtunIty to restake it under the new IaWs.
 In one camp recently found on the Yukon one man staked in one month twenty -four association claims of l6O acres each or nearly 4,0U0 acres aI- together. Others emulated his exam Die tO the best of their ability and many kept him going to hold his place in the lead. If all his claims were separated into 20 acres tracts and placed end to end they would reach for q distance of forty eight miles.
 The susprising thing about 1t ali IS that congress permitted condition such as that to prevail. But now that it is past We can only congratulate ourselves on a change that will be to the country's great benefit.

DANCING WITH BEARS.

The telegraphic dispatches yester- day told us that twenty society girls of Philadelphia disported themselves by dancing in a hotel ball room with grizzly bears. They also played leap frog and apparently had a good time generally.
 But why should such thing create a sensation or be worth telegraphing all over the country, as it undoubted- ly was? Surely girl can dance with bear if she wants to. There is nothing in the ten commandments against il. Besides a bear seldom goes straight 10 a ball room from . bar or with chew in his mouth. Nor can any comparison be drawn to his disadvantage with some human disci- pies of the art terpsichorean. If he does step on a girls tootsies he is less likely to put her out of business than leather shod biped. He is often just as graceful. He never forces his attention on ladies unless when hungry and even then an old spinster or a walIfiower looks as good to him as the sprightliest and pret tiest society girl in the country.
 So there seems to be no earthly reason why such a hubbub should be kicked up. any more than there was when we heard of the monkey dinner. If there are some men who like the society of monkeys and some girls none of our business. Particularly careless should we be about such al
