a week at the Capital, and while

ed in the record of any Congress
man. 1t is surprising to know
that as busy a man as Congress
man Fields could give his person.
al attention to every letter from
his constituents, but this is wha,
Congressman Fields does. He
seems to have as much consider
alton for his constituents as il
they were face to face with him.
Congressman Fields ability as a
member Of one of the most i'm
portant committees of the House
is recognized by the statesmen
of the country. He is the rank

he makes a friend he has a way
OF keeping him. | believe that

Explaining FIuency Of Speech.

The common huency of speech
in many persons is owing to a
scarcity of matter and a scarcity
of words; for whoever is a mas
ter of language and has a mind
full of ideas, will be apt in speak
ing to hesitate upon the choice
of both; whereas common speak
ers have only one set of ideas,
and one set of words to clothe
them in, and these are always
ready at the mouth, so people
come faster out of a church when
it is almost empty than when u
crowd is at the door. Swift.

the roads will permit ore shipments
being made to the local railway.
Will Mcbride and James and Peter
Evans have secured a lease OF the old

there Wednesday. There is thought
to be considerable lead in the Stag

Nick Ratio left Tuesday morning

mining claims in that district for
years and has gone down to look
them over and see what is doing in
the old camp that is now so much in
the public eye.
Through the burning and roughing
out of one of the main bearings on
the 60-horse power gasoline engine
at the Connolly mine last Saturday
all work at the new double compart-
ment shaft has been suspended until
a new bearing has been received. If
this can be obtained at Salt Lake.
work will be resumed about the first
of next week. but if it is found that
it will be necessary to obtain the new
part in the East it will require at
least a week longer, and as this en-
CINE furnishes the air and power for
the drills and hosting. all work is
suspended until repairs are made.
