Strange Story of an Old Miner's Dis-
. covery in Nevada.
N. H. George, Santa Fa yardmas-
ter, has taken a layoff of three weeks
and gone to Nevada to davelop a
gold mining claim which Tie has
there.: There la quite a story back
of his going.
Mr. George grub staked an old
miner who had struck a streak of
bad luck. This miner finally found
some excellent surface indications In
the Nevada Mountains and staked
his claim. Tho prospects were so
good that Mr. George, his brother
and his brother-in-law took three
adjoining claims. The old grizzled
miner worked away all winter on the
j-funds supplied him by Mr. George.
His developments were encouraging,
but did not pan but large quantities
of the yellow metal.
A short time since another old
miner, in hard luck, came past this
first nflncr's claim, carrying his kit
of tools with him. Mr. George's
friend was naturally lonesome and
invited the stranger to take a claim,
and after looking over the situation
this stranger decided to do so. An
evening or two later the two miners
sat on a ledge of rock talking when
a badger came Into sight. The
miners gave chase, and the badger
ran into a hole on the stranger's
claim.
They went to work with their
picks and soon dug the budger out,
and in doing so they made a remark
able discovery. His bed, in the bot
tom of the hole, was made on a big
chunk of the very richest of gold
ore. The gold in the stone on which
ho lay was worth $10,000. In this
way they discovered a rich vein of
gold bearing quartz which runs
through both their mines as well as
those belonging to Mr. George, his
brother and his brother-in-law. Mr.
George's ' trip-to Nevada is for the
purpose of fully investigating his
new gold mine.- Wellington Mail.

JOSEPH O. BROWN, President.
HENRY E. IJTCHFORD, Cashier. 2
Joseph (i. Camion.
Compliments for the speaker are
always in order in tho closing days
of a session of congress, but there
is nothing perfunctory about the
tributes paid to the Hon. Joseph G.
Cannon.
There has been no presiding of
ficer better liked- in our time, and
Mr. Cannon is admitted and esteem
ed in spite of the fact that, his policy
has raised up a large body of insurg
ents in his own party, and in spite
oj periodical denunciation as an
iron-handed despot by an unterrifled
but helpless minority.
How can the language of amiable
hyperbole used by Representative
Townsend in speaking of Mr. Can
non in the house be accounted for?
Is the speaker "devotedly loved by
every member?" Is he, to quote
Mr. , Townsend, "younger than the
youngest and stronger '; than the
strongest, 'the nolest Roman of us
all?"' :
A well preserved and remarkable
man is "Uncle Joe," but a partisan
withal,, and a good hater as well as
a staunch friend. He would bo the
last man in congress to wear a halo,
and ho has no illusions about his
greatness. The secret of his popu
larity in the house is composite. He
is always "one of the boys," his heart
being on the floor with them, al
though he sits in the exalted crfair
of speaker and rules them grimly
for their own ; and the country's
good; they know him as a thorough
ly trained and sapient legislator who
never loses his head; his human na
ture is all-embracing and equal to
every emergency; he is so good an
American that he might pass for
Uncle Sam himself.
Other speakers have been looked
up to and even feared, and many
have enjoyed the esteem of their as
sociates; but Mr. Cannon has won
and retained their personal affection
while commanding their respect un
der the most trying circumstances.

by dint' of gigantic extravagance.
To complete the ruin, some mali
cious person must Invent bridge. Has
it ever occurred to any one to try to
calculate how much money is dropped
WTwidge by society ladies in a year?
It is not by any means an exaggera
ted estimate to put the number of per
sons who are in society today at 20,000,
and out of this number it is a still
more -modest computation to reckon
that there are 12,000 ladies playing
bridge every night in the year. Allow
ing for deductions on the score of occa
sional good luck, we may safely put
down t pounds a night as the average
loss of each of these ladies. That gives
us almost nine million pounds lost at
bridge by women in the course of a
year.
It can be very plausibly objected that
if most lose, still some must win, and
win enormously; but money won in
this way seems to do no one any good.
It does not pay the drcssmakcrs's bills
or the servants' wages, or help the hus
band to make a remission of rent to
his tenants in a bad year. Just as the
bookmaker feels obliged to spend a
large part of his earnings on the most
expensive cigars and champagne, and
the man who lives by "coups" on the
stock exchange is far 'more extrava
gant than he, would be if be earned a
steady income, so the winnings of the
bridge table lead to further embar
rassment rather than to extrication
from financial difficulties.
There is one expense which weighs
less heavily the higher one's rank in
society may be. The young man about
town the younger son who has a con
stant struggle to keep up appearances
in the circles wnere ne Is regarded su
perciliously, if not suspisciously finds
the necessity of "tipping" a terrible
drain on his purse. He cannot stop to
weigh the ditTeivneo between a sover
eign or half a sovereign. The man or
woman with a position absolutely as
sured wastes 'very little on servants,
waiters, or cabmen.

Social Diversions in England Hard
Lot of the Younger Sons.
Nothing ever happens nowadays,
says the London Tribune, except in the
police and divorce courts. Tho aris
tocracy have lost all interest in poli
tics; they are not very keen even on
sport. They live nowhere, for they are
always in their motors, and a chron
icle of their movements would be as
complicated and as uninteresting as
Bradshaw. , Worst of ill, they have
been reduced to insignificance they
cannot strike out in 'any original line
for themselves because they are so
terribly poor. '
Of course the first and largest cause
of this poverty Is notorious "agricul
tural depression." Many a nobleman
who can travel perhaps for a hundred
miles without leaving his own estates
is scarcely ao rich as a successful man
ufacturer, and nothing like so rich as
the South African magnates Jn Park
Lane. On the top of this depression
comes the stress of competition with
the new aristocracy of wealth,: who
assert their right to "dominate society !
Denmark is Stingiest of All to Her
Legislators.
The Norwegian member of Parlia
ment gets only .thirteen- shillings a day,
and if the hard worked legislator takes
a day off he loses his pay. The same
is the case with members of the Swiss
Diet. They are rewarded with sixteen
shillings a day, on condition that they
do not -absent themselves from work.
To go fourther east we fin that Rou-
mnnla ''-thinks her lawmakers worth
one pound a clay. Sixteen shillings a
day is the salary of those who com
pose the Lulgariun Sobranje, but mem
bers who live in the capital get only
twelve shillings daily.
Denmark is about the stingiest: ' of
all European countries, so far as remu
nerating her lawmakers' is -concerned.
Danish members of Parliament get but
six shillings eight pence, a day: hut
on the other hand they have the odd
privilege of a frpe seat in the Royal
Theatre at Copenhagen.
While the members of the Gorman
Reichstag are not salaried, yet the
lawmakers of tho various German
states do not work for nothing. Saxe
Coburg members of Parliament are
paid thirteen shillings, of Bavaria ten,
and of Hesse nine.
At first sight Hungary seems to do
her lawmaking on the cheap plan. Rut
they are not so badly off after all, for
a liberal allowance is made Into the
bargain for house rent. Austria-Hun
gary's two legislative assemblies cost
the country about 160,000 pounds a
year in all. Both in Austria and Hun
gary legislators can travel first class
with second class tickets.
Besides the United Kingdom, Italy
and Spain are the only countries which
pay nothing to their members of par
liament. Nevertheless, the cost of the
Italian Parliament is estimated at
85,000 pounds a year.
In Portugal also the State does not
remunerate legislators, but they re
ceive free railway passes, and their
constituencies are, legally permitted to
pay those who represent them a sum
of about fifteen shillngs for-each day
of the session. London Answers.
France is now playing the role of the
world's banker;. England lost her claim
to the title w'hen she went to war In
South Africa. A generation ago one
had to go to London to feel the pulse
of the international money market.
Today one makes a better diagnosis in
Paris.
The strides toward financial suprem
acy which France is making have been
most rapid in the past five years. In
that time French investors have taken
up many milliard francs of foreign ob
ligations. They furnished Great Brit
ain with much of the capital that went
to finance the Boer war; they loaned
enormous amounts to Russia, practi
cally supplying the money needed in
the struggle against Japan; they pro
vided Germany with 1,000,000,000 marks
In 1904-'0o to carry on her tremendous
Industrial enterprises; they took a lib
eral amount of the last Japanese loan,
more than half of the Russian loan of
last April, and, finally, they supplied
borrowers in the United States with
fully $150,000,000 during the tight money
period of last winter and are now
financing the bond and note issues of
some of our greatest corporations.
Although the annual gold production
of the world is nearly $400,000,000, there
is such tremendous trade activity In
every quarter of the universe that cap
ital is in demand as never before. One
thinks of the usually well .supplied
money markets as today cleaned up
bare, In a condition of drought; but
then there is a great reservoir of free
capital in France which is being tapped
by the other thirsty nations, and
which. In spite of the drain on it, keeps
well filled and shows no sign of ex
haustion. The Bank of France, the
largest hoarder of gold next to the
United States Treasury, has in its
vaults today nearly $(i00,000,000 of the
precious metal; two years ago it had
$lfi."J)00,000, and in 1900, when Paris
began slowly to forge ahead of Lon
don as the center of the largest money
supply, the institution held only $375,
000.000. How has France, a nation industri
ally inferior to Germany and with a
commerce very much below that of
Great Britain, gained such a power in
world finance? The answer is, through
her domestic economy. For frugality,
thrift. Intense application to the work
in hand, and the very commendable
ambition to carve from life's labors
enough to make bright the Inevitable
rainy day and to cheer old age the
Frenchman has no peer. To save is
an inherited desire. The poorest peas
ant in the least productive parish of
the republic manages to put aside a
little each year for a competency, and
the fishermen down on the Brittany
coast would have starved a few win
ters ago, when the catch was almost
nothing, had they not been able to
draw from the savings of more fruit
ful years. Tens of thousands of small
shopkeepers, innkeepers, scantily paid
government employes are investors,
and their combined savings have pro
vided the funds to finance.-many a nar
tion and carry It through a lean period.
The population of France is about
40,000,0.00 people; the wealth of France
Is nearly $45,000,000,000. This wealth
Is evenly distributed. The number of
estates administered in 1904 was 394,-
7.S7. and of those one-half were for
values ranging from less than $10,000
to a little under $100,000. Only three
were over $10,000,00u. Review of lie-

II would brighten up tho red man's
'reputation if a few moro frivolous
pale faces could take an occasional
meal with a group of Navajo Indians
on their native Arizona heath, as did
Julian A. Dimock, a writer for Rec
reation.
"When tho dinner hour found us
far from tho store," says he, "we of
ten went to some nearby hogan, and
joining the circle around the sage
brush fire invited ourselves to dine
with the family. Usually the dinner
was of mutton, broiled over the coals
on a gridiron improvised from pieces
of heavy wire; ears of green corn
roasted before the fire and a kind
of ash cake made from corn ground
with stones into a coarse meal, mix
ed with waterand salt, wrapped in
green husks and cooked in the ashes.
"Often the Indians were like a
group of children; jokes passed "back
and forth and every one laughed be
tween mouthfuls. Some merriment
over a remark that seemed to have
concerned me led me to ask for a
translation, which was: 'The woman
says that that one of the dogs has
been carrying that stick you are us
ing as a fork around in his mouth.'
There was a single knife, and a fam
ily spoon did Etirring duty in many
cups, but the forks, being fingers,
were individual.
"An Indian seated opposite me,
with grave expression and dignified
demeanor .seemed like a character
from one of Cooper's tales. I look
ed for the passing of a pipe of peace
and an Indian oration, but when this
noble red man lifted nls hand it was
to reach forward and tickle with a
feather one of the children. ; He
then quickly resumed his former at
titude and assumed an expression of
outraged innocence when accused by
the tickled child."
CARELESS EUROPEAN OPINION
There has been some dispute, more
or less fervid, as to whether Bishop
Potter was right or wrong In assort
ing that Englishmen do not really like
Americans, and some of our own cor
respondents have evinced considerable
heat because, they say, our English
visitor" Jo not appreciate and admire
things American as they ought to do.
All this perturbation and anxiety con
cerning what Englishmen or Germans
or Frenchmen or any other foreigners
may chance to say or think about us
Is out of date. As year follows year
It will become to us a matter of more
and more profound indifference wheth
er Englishmen or other Europeans
view us with Jealousy, misconception
or affection, we are full grown. We
suffice unto ourselves. New York Sun.
