McCoy Creek Mines.
A letter received from McCoy creek,
in Skamania county, says prospecting is
being done there vigorously, but the re-
tarns so far are far from gratifying. J.
L. Langilie has Bank a shaft thirty feet
in the old river channel, a bed of cement
gravel, and has not yet reached bed
rock. John McCoy and Hank Ladahoff
ran a cut across the big bar where the
gold was first discovered, and ran out of
pay dirt in a short distance. They are
now working on a bar higher up the
creek, but have not done enough yet to
test the bar. The gold is all coan-e and
ragged, showing that it has not washed
far, and all the men on the creek are
sanguine of finding the ledge from
which it is supposed to have come.

without Dr. King's New Discovery for
Consumption, Coughs and Colds. Ex
perimented with many others, but never

ELECTRIC LIGHTING.
There la Snld to Be $300,000,000 In
vested in This Country.
In the electric lighting- field the total
capital invested in the United States
is given as over $500,000,000. The num
ber of plants, public and private, is
over 10,000, says an exchange. The num
ber of motors in use is estimated at
about 500,000, and their value at about
$100,000,000. The electrical apparatus
used in mining is estimated at $100,000,
000, and the value of the electric ele
vator industry will probably not fall
short of $15,000,000.
The most important of all the elec
tric industries, however, is that of elec
tric railways. In this field the invest
ment is very great, and in the United
States is represented by a capitaliza
tion of over $700,000,000. The number
of trolley ears in use is now over 25,000,
and these run over 12,000 miles of track.
The electric railways represent more
than 90 per cent, of all the street and
suburban railroads of the country.
The aggregate of all the capital in
vested in electric lighting, electric rail
ways and electric power is about $1,
500,000,000,0)0, and this does not include
the value of establishments that man
ufacture the machinery and apparatus.
As many of these are among the largest
industrial enterprises in the world, and
as nearly all are concerns of consider
able magnitude, it is evident that their
combined capital will run up into large
figures. Detroit Free Press.
Apple Snow.
Bake six tart apples, take out the
pulp, and strain through a sieve, then
add the whites of three eggs and beat
until very stiff, sweetening to taste.
Make a custard of the yolks of the
eggs and a pint of milk, sweeten and
flavor to taste, and when cold pour
around the snow. The apple may be
