SIBERIAN GOLD MINES
A Country That May BecoBd 1

"Keep your eye on Siberia."
That ic what a scientific writer ca
the old problem wrote only six month
ago, and those who hare visited that
supposedly bleak, cold and dismal
country may fairly echo his word.
Siberia has been misunderstood. Far
40 years now mines have been opened
all over the country. In Tomsk amia
istcr of minea is permanently resident,
as well as at Irkutsk, while the num
ber f people employed in the mining
"industry is considerably ia exceit ot
" 100,000.
Yet in spite of tha marvelous rich
ness of the country, which la been
described by more than one writer at
likely to become a second California,
little or no attempt has bean made by
foreigners to enter and- to take lip the
industry of gold niiaiag. Yet the fo
jrument is anxious that aucb. should
-pthe case, and in order to facilitate
Jie importation of foreign energy and
brain to the great Siberian gold fields
special concession are- held out to
foreigner which the-native doe not
- enjoy. "
Russian law ii peculiar, complicated
and a little awe-inspiring, and this
may have a great effect upon the cap
italist, backed up aa it is by tha ex
traordinary prejudice which etill ex
ists in civilized Europe-against every
thing Russian.
In many reapecta Siberia reaembles
the Klondike district. Many of the
mines- are situated in places equally
- aa inaccessible in winter, and which
have the same characteristics in sum
mer. The alluvial deposits are free
and in some cases rich. Quartz there
is, but with the exception of one or
two places this has never yat been
tapped, and in the whole of Siberia
at the present time there isnot aaingle
efficient battery for quartz crushing1
this statement on the authority of Vr.
" Shostok.'the minister of mines for Si
beria. Nor ia there any machinery
for the proper washing of alluvial gold,
and yet millionaire gold miners, free
men or exiles, may be found by the
dozen in Tomsk, Irkutsk and Kraano
airsk. The practiced siaar, fresh
; from the field of austere. Australia,
British Columbia or California, wonM
doubtless laugh hugely at the primi
tive arrangements in use In Siberia,
The foreigner desiring to become a
mine owner in Siberia must first have
a letter of recommendation from his
ambassador or consul, and then he
- can either rent or buy existing minea
Or-propect for himself. . He ia not al-
. lowed more than five versta, or 3
; r miles of land in any one particular
- .spot, but he can have a many mines
as he likes, provided they are not on
one' run. All the gold he obtains he
bands over er the government, which
assay and smelts it for him, crediting
bim with its value, less three or five
per cent, according to the district,
' which is tax money. Once in posses
sion cf the concession, the miner may
go to any part of Siberia, and if he
knows his business andis careful there
is every prospect of him becoming a
rich man, for. if anything, the protea-
; tive laws of Russia are more severe
than in any other country. Such
-. thine as claim jumping is unknown,
robbery or murder alniost unheard of,
and food is astonishingly cheap, ae
also is labor. The government pro
vides each mine owner with Cossacks
guard the precious metal, and, in
vTr-aTt, when one thoroughly under
stands tha conditions, there csn be nc
better way of pursuing the fascinat
ing hunt for gold than under the Si
berian regime.
One of the- most astonishing fea
tures of Siberian gold minir.g is- that
many of the richest miners are exiles
sent to Siberia years ago for lome po
litical or criminal offense, and, si
thoughtheyhave wealth in abundance
they cannot leave that land of snow,
af ateppea- and mountains until the
great white czar should be pleased to
. grant his gracious pardon.
Now that the great Siberian rail
way is slowly but surely forging itc
way through the heart of Asia, it is
hoped that in its wake will follow
Heady tide of western civilization. It
oe without aaying that wherever the
railway engine snorts its way civiliza
tion must follow. Already the line hat
reached within measure able distance
cf Irkutsk, the capital of Siberia.
The large cost and the great discom-
fort of a journey to central Siberia
tare prohibited foreign enterprise up
till now. but the future will be dif
ferent. Dispatch and comfort will be
the- order of the new railway, und

UNUSUAL CHARITY.
Home for the Families of Captured
Outlaws.
ro
Be Established by thai Man JVho
Has Made His Mooer by; Hal
las; the DcBperadoea .
to Ear.t.
Jim Jenkins, the man, who1 ha for
forty odd xcars beeti the great nigfit- '
mare of evcrx outlaw in the xxvst; a
man who, in his time, has brought 10
earth mure bandit than any other sin
gle man in the world, ar.d who has al-nio.-t
sir.s'.e-liandtd arrested over 15C
famous dt pcradocs, such as the Dal-ton.-,
the James boys and others, has
now tuti.id a nw leaf in his life. He
ha.s t urn d -philanthropist. Xot only
that, but he has the strangest scheme
:n;agirable into which he has now be
liin to pour his wealth.
Jvi'kir.s is counted as a very wealthy
man cut ".round Wichita. Kan., where
he lives., for he has over $50,000 at his
personal disposal, and men with a sum
like that ar scarce out there.
Jim Jenkins accumulated this great,
sum as prizes for running toearth some
of the nx-'St notorious outlaws th- wild
west has ever known. Jim is still at
work runnirp criminals to death, but
in the meantime he has planned and is
putting into execution one of the queer
est srhttucs of philanthropy that have
ever been known.
It is estimated that there are still in
prison in this part of the world rtearly
HH men who would not have been be
hind the bars were -it not- that Jim
Jenkins caught them and bad them
placed there. In most of these cases
the wives ard children of thes prison
ers are tkirp out miserable existences
in various wa.is. bat none of them can
afford U throw away a rent, and still
others are in aetual w ant. This is where
Jim Jerkins" great scheme comes in.
For capturing these men. who are now
in prison, he has received from the gov
ernment, the state and county authori
ties, and the express aud railway com
panies, prizes which have made him
wealthy. Jim is petting old. and he
knows it. He knows that- in a com
paratively short time he will be- laid
under the sod. with co one to weep over
what is left of him. He has no near
relatives, and his mcney would get all
tw ist' 0 up in the courts. Therefore he.
has decided to do what good he can in
this world, and he has begun to build
l very nice home, which will cost him
f-vUxu) in cash. In this building aud
with the odd COu.UOM which he will hate
left Jim will found a home to whirh the
wives and children cf the criminals who
are now in prison because Jim got the
best of them will always be welcome,
where, they can live, eat and be merry.
The home is to be open to all of them,
free f charge. It is to be located at,
Prj or Creek. Indian territory.
lhiring his forty odd years as a scout
Jenkins has helped capture Jesse
James. Dob Ford. Dill Dalton. Dill
Cook, and many other lesser lights
among the outlaw fraternity. He was
leader oMhe crowd of deputy marshals
that captured Cherokee Kill in l-5. and
he ran to earth both Jennings and the
Williams gangs. Jenkins said without
L boosting-that he had assisted in ihecap-
ture of over 15 real bad men. that is.
men who had gained a reputation as
train robbers, to say nothing of the
other criminals. In the Dalton raid at
Coffeyvillc. Kan., when that gang was
nearlv extinguished, Jenkins was shot
. THE BROAD PENNANT.
The Coaasas-dore'a Swallowtail Flag
Disappears frona American
Naval Ships.
The enactment of the navy personnel
bill is going to make a great change in
manv navsl manners and customs. For
one thing there are IS rear admirals and
ten commodores, instead of seven rear
admirals and ten commodores; and the
officers without the gold stars on their
cuffs arc to be. hereafter just as good
as those with the stars. Iuotherwords,
the distinction between the line and
staff is to be done away with.
The' most interesting change is the
abolition of the grade commodore. It
Mill not mean so much for the commo
dores as for outsiders. They will be
come renr admirals, but will have only
ttic pay of commodores. Thay will
wear more braid on the cuffs of their
uni forms, and have a few more expenses,
and be entitled to have 13 gun fired
in their honor instead of 11. and to hoist
a blue flag with two white stars on it in
stead of a swallow-tailed flag with one
star. - But in other respects, except for
these things, they will be about the

' To begin w ith, the rauk is peculiar to
the American navy. No other navy ha
it oa a permanency. The United States
have had it as such only since 1S2, bu
before that the title, though not the
rank, was the highest to which a naval
officer could hope to attain. In JS57a
law- decreed that captains in command
of squadrons should be dominated flag
officers, and that was the firet official
recognition of a title under which most
American naval heroes had made h

broad pennant has come .down; at
ortsmouth, Norfolk, Mare Island, New
York and Havana, it has been hauled
down, and in its place, alonjr with a
new blue flag with fourwhite stars, the
flag of rear admiral. Hut the disappear-
j auce of the broad pennant of Terry,
j Stewart, Decatur, Farragut, and the
others who have written their names
I pretty distinctly on the pages of
American history, will be regretted by
many because of its associations. The
new admirals, however, are pretty good
writers in their own way, and have been
putting things on thoee pages for a
good many years; fo it in not likely that
anv.-ne will have more than a senti
mental reason for regretting the pass

INDIAN'S SAD FATE.
Was Buried Alive Through the Spite
of a Jilted GirL
Wava to Hat Been Married. Bat Proa-

Souio years ago Black Horse, then a
handsome young buck, met Miss Thuln !
DighenrS the daughter of ex-Chief Big- j
heart, of the Osage netum. 'I liey lffveii
ach other fondly aud became engaged.
After that Miss Bigbeartwcnt away to
Washington to school. In the mean
time she forgot her Indian lover, and
wiien. she returned last Hall to her home
there, was Black Horse to greet her,
but for him she had no fond words.
However, as she had promised to be
his bride, the- date was set and great
preparations were made. The cere
mony was to be nclu at tiie uoine 01
Frank Johnsott, a relative of Miss Big
hcart. Black Hores knew- rfie did not
love him as of old, but he said nothing.
The 100 guests trembled at the home
of Johnson aud made ready for the
feast. The bride looked a trifle ile
in her white satin gown. As is the cus
tom. Black Horse was not to come till
niue o'clock, but when that hour ar
rived, he did not rhownp; M-ither did
heooiNe an hour or two later. Miss Big
herat finally became, discouraged and
invited the guests to be seated .-it the
feast.
Alter they had all gone, each one ex
pressing regrets and surprise at. mc
missing bridegroom's action, the In
dian 111 a i ileu. called aside her three
brothers Bill, Joe and Aleck the

'Now, see here." she said, so the ac
counts run. I want revenge on that
trilling Indian. He knew I did not
want to marry him in the lirrt plaee,
aud he has done this for revenge. Sow,
1 want to show him who will have the
est reenge. I want jou to catch him
and burv him alive."
Chief Johnson and his men wctt out.
At daylight they returned, and said:
'We found Black Horse lying drunk
beside the- rood not far from his house.
We woke him and asked him why he did
not- come before to the wedding, and
he replied, as you said, that he sennit.
revenge, so we bound ham band aim
foot and took him to tie bonk of the
river, dug a hole in the sunt and buried
him alive."
The Indian girl smiled, as though.
well pleased. The next day she went
away. As the neighbors ore far apart,
no one- knew it, neither did they know
that Black Horse had not come to the
wedding later, supposing, of course, he
had been delawd.
few weeks later a party of Karw-as
hunters encamped on the banks of the
Arkansas, nenr Homing post. While
searching along the banks for kindling
wood they r.olietd the sand being
turned up. ard Harry Chofe, mere cu-
rio'ii than the rest, decided to investi
gate. The result, was the finding of
Biaek Horse's IkxIv. His mtAith was
open anil h.fevl w tin satU. llis leatures
were drawn, and the bodv sl:ow-d evi
dence of hating been covered whiieyet
alive. Chase reported to Depute Mar
shal Meiluire. wIkj investigated and ar
rested the Johnson and Kightart boys.
They ignorautly confessvJ, and ac
tually believed they had done nenhirg
w rong.
Tbula wascaptured by a deputy mar
shal at the horn of an uncle near law-
bitska. he cVr.ies that she intended
to escape, iu-il also :os the did nt tell
the brothers and Johnsim bos t j kiil
Black Horse by burying bim alive. She
is said t. hae remarked to Deputy
Marri;n! Metiuire, when taken bsforc
her a"ged accomplices: "I deny nuy
connection with this crime. Mv friends
were ai jfry when thy discovered 1
and Black Horse did net marrv, and
they made the suggestion themselves
that he should be buried alive. I'erhaps
I diil assent., but I am sure I never t Jld
them to do it." She was taken to the
house of the j;nl'r, Hendersun, aud kept
under guard. Homing lVst is u small
town, and the jail is on the principal
street. It- U a small wooden building;
in a corral between twostone buildings,
and high walls cloe the ends of lLo
iinclo-ure. The prisoners, are allowed
to run looie in this corral, and guards
are stationed ia picket houses on top
of the walls.
In a talk with. Dr. Hill, who calletl
at the jail to see liim, Johnson, who is
65 years old, said : "We took th young;
Indian dow n and buried him because
he deserved it ard had no business to
?poil our girl's (meaning Thula. liig
hcart) prospects that-way. She told me
she d'.d not want to marry himanyway,
because ihe had iv sweetheart in the
east, and he (Ulaek Horse) was U-
trunnion for her. We uhked her what
thould we do with Mm that night if he
could be found, and she. wid to bury
him. alive.' That's what we done, ami
the son-of-ia-gun won't fool anybody
elsv I guess."
ltie prciiiuinarv trial or tLc seven
men was held before McCloud, justice
of the peace, at Homing Post. They
pleaded guilty, and, while it was not
customary any old form goes in that
country the justice bound them o-vcr
to the Indian, court, which is held at

BANKS HAVE USE FOREwtEY.
War la Which Ut Ftaaarlal laatlla-
tloaa Niaofc to Pay Dividends
to Shareholders.
Manj' people wonder how banks use
all the money deposited in them and
Low they manage to pay interest there
on and yet come out at the end of the
year with a big profit on the business,
says the New York 1 elcgram.
What they do is trade w ith the money.
To the depositor they ay between one
and txx-o per cent., but the money they
lend brings them in three, five, sis.
seven, anil even eignt percent.
For instance, they give loans on all
sorts of securities such as railxxay tle-
bentures, government stock, public
company shares, dock warrants, unis
of lading, etc.
They also lend money on the se
curity of Louse and laud, but not to
a great esteut, as repayments are
alow.
When a couple of substantial business
men or farmers or professional men
back a bill the bank often lends without
any security at all; but now and again
they have heavy and ruinous losses on
these loans.
All banks, however, Lave large sums
of money constantly lying idle, for they
must keep sufficient cash at the various
branches to pay checks, and even to lie
more or less prepared for pauics. Still,
the difference between the one or two
per cent, they pay and the thrco or
eight they receive on millions of dol
lars leaves them an immense proht on
tlio year's business.
THE CUBAN GOLD' MYTH.
There Is Kothlna; on aba Island
-Which Mar lie Dlsnlfled br
tbe Xante Mine,
If wc listen to the voice of the charm
er or to the books on Cuba for our
information wc shall liud that the min
eral resources of this island include
gold, silver, mercury, lead, antimony,
copper, chrome, iron, manganese, pitch,
bitumen and even coal; but when wc
come to look for practical metallic re
sults commensurate with these varied
mineral resources wc 6hall be disap
pointed, says the Engineering Maga
zine. The gold fiction is the most time hon
ored, for the original Spanish settlers
expected to find rich tfold mines in
Cuba. According to their historian
much gold was taken from this island
lit the beginning of the conquest, but
it seems probable that most of this was
takeu from the chiefs or caciques of the
Indians and very little from the prouud.
El Viugcro Universal, Madrid, 17'J7,
says: "Some of this metal (gold) is
bt ill found at llolguin." Whenever the
existence of gold in Cuba is discussed
this "mine" at Holguin is invariably
brouirht forward. It is true that some
work has been done tit this point and
a little irold has been extracted, but
there, has never lieeii uny systematic ex
ploration, and there is nothing there
which may lo dignified with the name
of a mine.
