Springs in Their Brains.

Two Frenchmen, in visiting an art
gallery. stopped to admire painting
by an American. The artist happened
to be in the gallery and in broken
English one Of the Frenchmen asked:
How did monsieur ever catch such
wonderful picture?"
Co." replied the artist with far
away look, that painting was an of
spring of my brain"
The other Frenchman was greatly
interested and asked his friend what
that American had said.
Il can hardly explain" whispered
the first Frenchman excftedly; "he
said ze picture was one spring OF
Of his brain. Ees eet any wonder Eat
ze Americans act queerly when they
have springs on their brains?"

Mogollon-At the Ernestine Mining
Company, the bullion product for the
first ten days of June amounted to
1900 Troy ounces gold and silver;
concentrates for the same period, 5h
tons. The daily ore treatment con-
tinues at better than 100 tons. A new
triplex, electrically driven pump has
been installed in the mill to handle
the battery solution, replacing the old
steam pump.
The Oaks Company's Pacific mine
development yielded eighty tons OF
mill ore during the past two weeks.
of which thirty-five tons came from
the bottom of the south shaft, now
down 1877 feet, and averaged $21 per
ton. The tunnel is in $40 feet where
the ledge shows eight feet wide OF a

produced twenty tons of mill ore dur

WILLING To SHARE PENNIES
Generous Act Of Street Waf That
Gained Him a Friend In Great
Novelist.

Charles Dickens, the creator Of
many delightful child characters,
earned a million dollars during his
lifetime with his pen, but often walk
ed the streets OF London in search OF
material for his books without a pen
ny in his pocket
One evening while doing this he
was accosted by a small boy who
asked him for a penny. Dickens
searched his pockets. but they were
empty, and so he told the boy, who
was shivering in the cold.
Poor mani" exclaimed the little
fellow. well go hunks together"
Dickens stood back in the shadow
OF the street to see what the outcome
would be. The lad continued to beg.
and finally gained two pennies. He
came dancing to Dickens with jolly
ring in his voice.
Now" he said. well have two hot
buns apiece"
Such generous spirit under such
trying circumstances struck Dickens
SO forcibly that he took the lad home
with him, and there he was fed and
clothed, and started on the road to a
better life.

from the table Poniotowskys own

boy flung the contents full in the
Hungarian's face.
The wine dashed against Ponitowsky's
lips and in his eyes. Blair laughed
out loud, his hands In his pockets,

If seen through a diving-bell under the

He wasn't afraid-it wasn't that: yet
he had certainty that 1t was all up
with him. He was young-very young
and he hadn't done much with the
job. His father would have been
ashamed of him. Then all his thoughts
went to Her. The two men in the

He wanted them to go-to be alone

And after they had left, he remained
in his window till dawn. 1t came soon,
midsummer dawn, a singularly tender

She made him take a table IN the
corner, where she sat in the shadow
on the sofa. overlooking the brilliant
room. Masims was no new scene TO
either of them, no novelty. Ponio-
towsky scarcely glanced at the crowd,
preferring to feast his eyes on his
companion, whose Indifference to him
made his abstraction easy. She was
his property. He would give her his
title; she had demanded It from the
first The Hungarian was a little over
dressed. with his jeweled buttons. his
large boutonniere. his faultless
clothes, his single eyeglass through
which he stared at Lefty Lane, whose
delicate beauty was in fine play; her
cheeks family pink. her starry eyes
humid with dew whose luster is OF
the most precious quality Her un-
shed tears had nothing to do with
Poniotowsky-they were for the boy.
Her heart sickened, thinking where
he might be: and more than that. It
cried out for him. She wanted him.
Oh. she would have been far better
for Dan than anything he could find
In this mad city. than anything to
which IN his despair he could go for
consolation. She had kept her word,
however. to that old man, Mr.. Rug
giles: she had got out of the business
with fatal result. as far as the boy
was concerned. She thought Dan
would drift here probably as most
Americans on their wild nights do for
a part of the time. and she had come
TO see.
She wore a dress of coral pink,
tightly fitting, high to her little chin.
and seemed herself like a coral strand
from neck to toe. clad In the color she
affected and which had become cele-
brated as the Lefty Lane pink. Her
feathered hat hid her face. and she
was completely shielded as she bent
down drawing pictures with her bare
finger on the cloth. After little
while she said to Poniotowsky with
out glancing at him
'Tf you stare any longer like that.
