The Harqun llala mines in Arizona have changed hunds, and extensive developments will le undertaken by the new ownership. A tin mine has been discovered in the Rarker district in Montana, and if it continues according to surface indica tions, it is one of the largest tin mines in the world. Southern Oregon miners are excited over the strike in silver rock made by the San Francisco company in their mines on Anderson creek, and a large number of locations have been made re cently. The Judge at Victoria has declined to sentence six miners wiio had been con victed a month ago of interfering with men at work in the Wellington mines. The men remain at liberty on their per sonal bond. The Sunipter Valley Knilroad Com panv will soon commence the erection of their saw mill in Maker City, with a capacity of 100,000 feet of lumber per day.

The timber-stealing cases against tho contractors for the Great Falls and Can nda railroad came to an end in the United States Court at Helena, Mont., after a verv short trial. The defendants wore charged with uiilawfullv taking timber valued at .$20,000 from govern ment land on tho North nnd South can yons of the Teton between February IS and April 17 of this year. During the thirty-four days that the Spokane exposition was open fully 50,000 visitors from every State of the Union beheld the products from tho Northwest. The receipts reached about $25,000, enough to pay running expenses and a little' more. Tho plant cost $108,000, while tho capital stock is only $50,000, leaving a deficiency of about $55,000 to bo met by the enterprising projectors. Miss Klla M. Smith, who died at Port land, benueathed $10,000 to tho Roys' and Girls' Aid Society, $5,000 each to tho Women's Union, Ladies' Relief So ciety and the Unitarian Church, all of that city, alwut $20,000 to vnrious per sons, nnd tho residue of her estate for tho erection nnd maintaining of a build ing for tho use of tho Portland Library Association.

Sensational stories have come to the Ohio State Hoard of Agriculture of the slaughtering and shipping to Philadel phia of diseased hogs from several coun ties in the State where tho hog cholera is prevalent. In the signal service tho past yeif, notwithstanding all the difliciilties, there were only fourteen occasions on which severe cold waves wero not predicted, 08 per cent, of all tho important cold waves being predicted. Speaking of tornadoes, General Greely of tho signal servic- says it up pears from the data on hand that in no State may a destructive tornodo Ihj expected oftener than on an average of onco in two years, and that the area over which tho total de-truction can be expected is exceeding small, even in tho States most liable to these violent storms. Acting Secretary of tho Interior Chan dler has decided that the mineral entry on the Ruchaniin mine in tho Stockton land district in California by Milton S.

Late advices from Pino Kidgo agency, South Dakota, are to tho effect that ex citement among tho Indians on account, of tho New Messiah is rapidly increas ing. Some apprehension is felt. If act ive measures are not taken leforo by the government, a serious outbreak may oc cur during tho early spring, or even lie fore.
