His idea, of course, is that the pro­
posed ship subsidy will do the busi­
ness to a turn. If the trust of which
Mr. Schwab is tbe head will reduce
ttie price of steel, even to the point at
which It sells abroad, the natural de­
mand will result in tbe building of
more new vessels than any ship sub­
sidy bill that could be framed—cer­
tainly more thau tbe measure appar­
ently about to be forced upon the
American people, despite their pro­
test.

The ont, the highest triumph of cookery—the most useful of
all the arts; the other, a monument to wasted energy, blasted
hopes qnd poor judgment. But why continue the compari­
son? If you have made the mistake in the past, trying to
exist on inferior flour, redeem yourself by ordering Snowy
Butte flour only in future.

MINING NEWS.

Owings’ claim, situated in Jackson
creek district, recently picked up a
nugget weighing 854.
Chas. Snow and Arthur Thompson,
wbo are working tbe Pearce drift, in
Poorman’» creek dietrict, last week
unearthed a piece of gold worth «20.
Fred Reese and Thos. Sutton, prior
to their departure for Northern Cali-
fernia, sold tbelr quartz mines—the
Roaring Gimlet, the 92 and the Ida—
to Wm. Mendenhall of Richmond,
Ind., who represents Wm. Baisley of
Trustee, Ind. The price given in
the deed is 16000. They formerly ex­
tracted several thousand dollars from
tbe first-named ledge.
W. H. Maultby and Ansel Gilson,
who are working some new placer
mines in Sterlingvllle precinct, think
they have struck the old boulder
channel that always pays to well.
They have run a drift 180 feet long
and found good pay dirt. It la coarse,
some of the pieces weighing as high
as 84 and $5 each.
Tbe department of mining engi­
neering at tbe 0. of O. bas recent­
ly expended *800 for an assaying out­
fit, consisting of a Union Iron Works
rock crusher aud a grinder, driven by
a two-horse power electric meter, for
preparing assay samples.
Besides
these a number of band crushers and
pulverizers, for the same purpose.
The furnaces, which have a capacity
of about 200 complete assays per day,
or 12 fusions every 20 minutes, are all
operated by gasoline from two central
tanks, with a capacity of about 15
gallons each. Tbe department also
possesses three first-class assay bal­
ances, one of which will easily show
as little as five tenths worth of gold to
tbe ton of ore. The ass ty department
is designed wholly for the purposes
of instruction, and commercial work
Is not undertaken: but problems in
assaying aod metallurgy that are too
difficult for the ordinary practicing
assayer are sometimes welcome, in
order to demonstrate the advan­
tage of tbe scientific way of doing
things, says the Guard.
J as . W. B rown , who for quite a
number of weeks war on trial at Al­
turas, Modoc county, Calif., charged
with participation in the lynching of
four men and a boy at Lookout, ended
in the acquittal of the defendant, al­
though he was clearly guilty. It was
probably the most sensational, ridicu­
lous aid remarkable trial that has
been held on tbe Pacific coast in
many years. It seems unlikely that
the many other persons who have been
indicted for tbe same crime will be
tried, as it would be impossible to get
a Jury In Modoc county; and the laws
of California do not provide for a
change of venue on the part of the
prosecution. The expense of Brown’s
trial was as large as tbe conduct of
his attorney- and Judge Harrington
was silly and outrageous.

mine, and is contemplating finking
a deep shaft on the property in tbe
near future.
From 6 o’clock p. m . Feb. 26th to 8
o’clock a m . Feb. 27th two inches of
rain fell. Water, water everywhere,
and lots of damage to farms, ditches,
etc. Tbe general sentiment is that
for rain the month of February was
in it with its 14 inches.
“We are pleased to learo,” says a
Kubll correspondent of T he T imes .
“that Peter Burckholter has the con­
tract for carrying the mail from Ap­
plegate to Davidson for the next four
years.” This writer certainly Is four
years behind, for G. W. Bailey has
been awarded tbe contract, and our
people are pleased.
As W. 8. Bailey was returning home
from Grant’s Pass recently he met
with an accident that almost resulted
in a runaway. In fording Oscar
creek (which crossing appears to be
used tor a dumping-ground as well as
a county-road) the team broke tbe
wagon tongue in clambering over the
debris. The use of the road for an
impounding dam should not be toler­
ated by our worthy r >ad supervisor.

Duties ot * Gaeat.
A guest's obligation begin» with the
reception of the Invitation. It should
be either readily and coorteoualy ac­
cepted or promptly and courteously de­
clined.
Nothing is more trying to the pa­
tience of tbe hostess and to the temper
of the cook than a belated dinner guest.
Perhaps no invitation once accepted
should be more strictly kept than this
one to dine. A guest should be at the
hostess' house five minutes before the
hour appointed, and. to use another’»
expression, "Nothing but death should
hinder.”
V>’e should go to any function resolv­
ed to be entertaining and easily enter­
tained. An appreciative, responsive,
animated guest lifts part of the re­
sponsibility from a hostess. If our
dinner partner bores us, we can pre­
tend to be Interested, and thus show
our good breeding and compliment
both him and our hostess.—Woman’s
