It is only within the past five years that the talents of the colored race have been brought before tbe public, and to Mr. Harry Martell belongs the credit, and as every other good and successful venture, finds inferior imitators, so ibis also has its pirates and copyists, but Manager B.

KLONDIKE OOLD OUTPUT. nint Director Reports $10,035,170 Worth Received This Year. Ihe recoid of the Klondike fo 18U1I Imn 1 r i:ilclly been romptettd. The cin 1. fgorMf as ulbcially received by Dnecti.rrl ih Mini Gtorg E. Roberts, indicate a total output of gold amounting to $10,055,270 was received st tbe new government assy office established at Sea'.lle last spring, and $4,080,270 found lis wsy into tbe miot at San Francisco. While this doubtless spproximslss tbe product actually shipped out of tbe Klondike, it may fall short ol Ihe actual production. It is a well-known fact that a good-sized slock of "duet" Is constant ly maintained at Dawson Ciry and other centers for current use, thai forming the sole medium of exchange, and Mr. Rob erts thinks it nite likely that as much as $1,000,000 worth of the precious metal may be held at the prceent time. The branch of the Canadian National bank frequently ships two-thirds of a million dollars worth, and it is not improbable tbe bank has $500,000 on hand at tbe time Mr. Roberli is also fit receipt of in formation lo the effect that another boat may be expected before the transporta tion seaeon closes, although tbis is not positively known. In the eveut of Ihe arrival of another steamer from $500,009 to $1,000,000 of gold would be emptied into the assay oflke at Seattle. Indica tions also point lo a steady, though com paratively light, stream of tbe yellow metal via the overland route, by (rail, brought by returning miners and pros pectors. While tbe figures given above represent the exact amount of gold act ually iu tight, it will not he surprising if the sggregate, by February 1, reached $ 1 1 ,500,000 or $12,000,000. rins output measures op to Ihe con servstive estimates of old miners and men amiliar with the conditions, Mr. Roberta st spring estimated tbe product at from $10,000,000,000 to $12,000,000, and these figures were generally regarded as approximating Ihe total output, barring fie expected discirery of phenomenal p.operties. Estimates of $25,000,000, and eveu $10,000,000, were basad wholly upon fancy, and not se iously liken. THK WOKLO'S Ol'TTl'T. "Tbe world') production of gold," ie marked Mr. Roberts, "is increasing at an astonishing rate, and Ibers are the vey best of reasons for tbe belief that the ratio of increase will be maintained annually for years to come. Il is Irne Ibe pbeoomeual increase in Ibe produc tion of the yellow metal in 13:0 was not maintained, tbe average of 1056-GO not being again reached until 1892, bnt tbe conditions surrounding tbe industry now and then are different. "Io 1897 the world produced $237,000 000. In 1898 the output will quite reach $85,000,000. This is an increase of about 275 percent over the production of Ib'JQ, when $118,000,000 was wrnog from tbe m il. Of tbis tremendous production in round numbers, something over 500 tons, Soalh Africa easily leads with approximately $75,000,000; Aus tralia following with $65,000,000; United States, $00,000,000; Russia, $30,000,000 and the remaining $35,000,000 distribued smoug the other nations of the earth, In all probability tbe aggre gate fur 1899 will measure np to $300, 000,000 and so far as human judgment is capable of discernment this increase annually, at a fair ratio, will continue for many years at least during this gen eration. 'The explanation for tbis remarkable growth is simple. Capital is just be coming interested in the industry, and Ibis is the immediate result of Ibe tremendous advances in tbe con struction of mining machinery and the adoption of modern aud im proved methods of handling the ore. Ten years ago this machinery and the pretent methods were practically were uuknowu. Ore that 10 years ago would have been thrown away as valueless by lea son of the comparatively small percent age of gold coutained is now mads to yield a handsome profit. Mineral con taining so small an amouut of gold as $3 to the tou is now handled with profit. Tl ree dollars worth of gold , on Ihe basil of $10 to the ounce a piece about Ibe eue of a tickel (5j), weighing less than one-filth of an ounce is a very small per centage of yield from a ton of ore, and Hie average is much above Ibis. The supply of this low-grade ore, ranuing from $2.50 to say $0 per ten, is apparent ly inexhaustible. There are Immense quantities of tho mineral iu I'lab, Col oradu, California aud other states Burglars Were Frightened Away. Conv.vi.us, Nov. 24 lo Coryallis there ia a Geruiau gunsmith whose es tablishment has been frequently burg Urii: d iu the past. Tbe failure of locks and bars to keep out Ihievea led to a new device, and last night for tbe brst time it was tested. Two burgUrs undertook to rob the store and while one stood in a back alley tbe other staitd to enter the bliuding Hash and a loud report with in a.few yards of his face caused him to abandon all designs ou the establish munt. Tbe tracks left behind show bow he tumbled over hlmsolf in a wild effort to escaie sudden and awful death. Among other things that be knocked over iu his mad flight was a barrel of water that stood near the cor nor of tbe building. The thing that de fended the building was a pistol fastened near the door, just inside, lo that tbe opeuing of the door would discharge It, It wa loaded with a blank cartridge.
