There is a strong probability that
something will be done with the Kan
sas group on Quartz hill this spring.
There are two parties looking into
the proposition-Denver and Cripple
Greek. This is desirable group OF
mines and for more than a year peo-
pie Of high financial standing have
been endeavoring to get possession
Of the properties.

The lessees On the Galena are
working on fine grade of ore, which
they were fortunate in discovering
without doing very much work. They
cleaned out a cavern in the 500-foot
level, which led to a stope that paid
ed a number of years ago. When they
reached the stope they found 80 feet
or iron stripped, ready to shoot
down. The ore runs from 6 to s
ounces. There are three sets of SUBJ
leasers now working in the Galena.

MAKING
MONEY GALORE

This week Frazer and Flynn made
another shipment from their bonanza
lease in the War Dance. There were
$4,000 pounds in the lot, the first
class averaging 81 ounces and the
second-class 1.70 ounces. 1t required
little more than a weeks time to
extract this ore.
Some of the most valuable ore
taken from the War Dance in months
was this week shipped from the Oh
iver and Johns lease. In this lot
there were 3400 pounds of first-class
and 1900 pounds of second-class. The
second-class 13 ounces.

The Rome Gardner mine on Quartz
alton by a local pool. Cleanup work
is being done and heavy operations
will be under way within two weeks.
This is a good mine and has produc-

run crosscut to reach a big body of
ore.

Sinking was started last week on
the Columbia tunnel. The shaft will
be sunk by contract 100 or perhaps
$50 feet. There is good crevice
to commence on and if this continues
down, it is likely that the ore taken
out will pay the cost of sinking.
The lessees of the Columbia will con-
tinue to ship ore from the west
stope. This has been great piece
of ground and has paid handsome
profit.

would not go far to satisfy the aver
age hungry boy or girl. Make them
as a sort or relish rather than as
sandby.
sardine Sandwiches.
Drain sardines from the oil, flake
them up with the fork, add few drops
of lemon juice and spread on buttered
bread, white or whole wheat Or you
may use the sardine paste, which
comes ready made. Bloater paste,
shrimp paste and anchovy paste are
also good as making a variety in sand
witches.
Jam Sandwiches.
Cut your bread Of moderate thinness
butter it and spread with any good jam
you have in the house; raspberry or
strawberry are usually favorites. If
you have no jam at hand, you may
substitute fruit jelly, but jam is better
if you can get it.
Apple Sandwiches,
Flavor apple sauce to taste with
grated lemon peel and little nutmeg
or cinnamon and spread it on white
or whole wheat bread. You can make
it more delicate by putting with it a
little stiffly whipped cream-but after
this the lunch basket must be kept in
a cool place.
Cream Cheese and Jam Sandwiches.
Soften cream cheese with milk or
cream or butter put with it an equal
quantity of raspberry jam and spread
it on sliced bread or on strips of toast
Marmalade Sandwiches.
Spread thinly buttered toast with or
ange marmalade or with jam.
Besides the sandwiches make other
provision for the school childrens
lunch. Buy a few small stoneware
naples and dedicate them to the SER
vice of the luncheon basket. Some
times put baked beans in them, some
times salad of some kind-chicken,
cold lamb, vegetable or fruit salad, or
a raw tomato, or a sweet pepper fill
ed with cold meat, or with chopped
celery or green peas. Or bake cup
custard in one of them, or a tiny rice
pudding, or fill it with Jelly or tapioca
custard when you are making the
large family desert or cook a minia-
ture cottage pudding in it. Or perhaps
put a baked apple in it, or a sliced
orange, or any other dainty which may
coax the childs appetite. And always,
when you can, have a cup of hot soup,
or some warm and savory and nutriti-
Gus leftover put to one side for the
child who comes home hungry or
merely empty in the middle of the
afternoon.

Try to keep an interest in your
school children's lunches! This is not
easy work. for after you have put up
one or two more lunches for the
schoolboys or girls five days a week
for few months the business be-
comes monotonous and you fall into
the way of giving the same thing over
and over again, without regard to
variety or to appetizing qualities.
Here are some sandwiches a little
different, perhaps, from what you are
in the habit of putting up for the
lunch box. The standby of the school
lunch in the sandwich, and if you wish
your children to satisfy their appitites
with the wholesome food you give
them instead of filling their stomacns
with pastry or candy Of doubtful eX-
cellence you mus make an effort to
seek novelties and surprises.
Egg Sandwiches.
Boil three eggs hard putting them
on in cold water and letting them
cook fully ten minutes after the water
comes to the boil. Throw them in
cold water, peel off he shells, chop the
whites fine and rub the yolks to a
powder. Make them to a paste with
a tablespoonful of melted butter, add
salt and pepper to taste and spread on
whole wheat or Graham bread, cut
neither too thick nor to a wafer-like
thinness.
Plan your sandwiches the day be-
fore and have bread at least twenty
four hours old. New bread crumbles
and will not cut well. Never send out
a messy-looking sandwich, even for a
schoolboy.
Cold Meat Sandwiches.
Chop your cold meat fine, season it
with salt and pepper and if it has little
character of its own put with it little
good pickle, also minced enough to add
little zest to it. Moisten this with
butter or well-seasoned gravy and
spread on white bread.
Brown Bread, Cheese and Raisln
Sandwiches.
For this buy or make the Boston
brown bread. Slice and butter it AMI
spread it with cream cheese or pot
cheese which you have softeneed with
mill! or cream or melted butter and di-
versified by the addition of few rails
ms seeded and chopped. The cheese is
nutritious, the raisins not only add to
the flavor but are said to possess sti-
mulating qualities which aid digestion.
Cold Roast Beef Sandwiches.
Slice rare roast beef delicately and
lay it between two thickness of white
or brown bread. Sprinkle the beef
lightly with salt and after the sand
witch is made rim it off carefully, that
there may be no scraps of the meat
protruding from the side.
Peanut Butter Sandwiches.
Slice your bread thin, buttering it on
the loaf before it is cut, spread peanut
butter on with discretion and trim of
the crust. These little sandwiches are
delicate and appetizing, although they

way We found many quaint pieces
One night we CHANGED upon an auc-
ton and secured a handsome old desk
for five dollars. 1t could not be bought
for twenty times that now. John spent
a lot of time restoring it, for it was in
a frightful condition. 1t is an old-fash-
Toned Office desk, set up high on slend-
er legs. The upper part is a bookcase,
with glass doors, fastened with the
dearest little brass button. Below this
are the pigeon holes and drawers for
writing paper and the private drawers,
enclosed by a tiny solid mahogany
door which locks. Directly in the cen
ter there is wide deep shelf. On the
left are the spaces for ledgers, while
on the right are lettered pigeon holes.
Under these are two sets of drawers,
on either side of the private door.
These drawers are not over an inch
and a half in depth, but are a foot
wide and run back the width of the
desk. Under these are more pigeon
holes. All of this part is enclosed by
lid which let's down, and when it is
closed there is seen another compart
ment in the stand, which raises and al
lows room for large sheets of paper,
or plans which might be of use to an
architect There are two spacious
drawers beneath this.

knife, buttering each time before slic-

folds adhere. If liked, the bread can
be spread with a fine paste of shrimp,

place in the center of the roll.

Judge of Probate Court and Candidate
y for Reelection.
Hon. E. w. Bazille has been Judge
of the Ramsey County Probate Court
for the last fourteen years, having
been first elevated to that position in
1898. His record on the bench is
without blemish of any kind, and he
has shown himself to be broadly wise
and learned on the subject of tesla
mentary law, one of the most intricate
and exacting branches of legal acu-
men and practice. He is particularly
we'll qualified for the position he holds,
and this is well known throughout the
county. The people believe in his
ability and entire uprightness, as is
amply shown by his repeated elections
to the bench of the Probate Court, and
in no respect has he ever belied, in
his official conduct, the. general esti.
mate of his capacity, high character
and absolute fairness.
His family has been prominent in
the history of st. Paul for nearly
three-quarters of a century, and he
has therefore every incentive for the
cordial interest he has always mani
tested in the city and county of his
home. He obtained his academic edu-
cation in the st. Paul public schools,
his business training at the st. Paul
Business College. and his legal instruc-
ton in the Office of the late Judge
Cornish, prominent st. Paul lawyer
Following his admission to the bar
he applied himself vigorously to his
profession and rose to a high rank in
it. For four years, from 1883 to 1887,
he served as Clerk of the District
Court and from 1894 to 1898 as Alb

Supporters of Hugh T. Halbert for
Congress have gotten into difficulties
lately, from which they are striving,
frantically. to eXtricate themselves.
BY adopting campaign of misrepre-
sentation they have supplied Mr.. Ste
vens' supporters with weapons, in the
way of arguments, which are proving
of great value in the campaign of
education which Mr.. Stevens has been
conducting.
In his campaign for reelection to
Congress, Frederick c.. Stevens has
confined himsel to- facts to show that
he has represented the people of the
district. His opponents have made
misstatements in an endeavor to pull
the wool over the eyes of the voters.
They seem to go on the theory that
the voters of the district are ignorant,
and that they can fool them by misrep-
resentation. Mr.. Stevens, on the 9TH
er hand, pleads to the intelligence Of
