Many persons residing at a distance from mining districts have the most erroneous idea, as to the supposed sim plicity and enormous profits of mining, apparently, deriving their information from the data of phenomenal assays, or occasional pockets of rich ore, mis takenly assuming that such cases are average samples, and that ore can be dug almost as potatoes are dug. On the contrary, with the exception of a very few mines which may pay expenses from the grass roots down, successful mining to-day involves the maximum of practical experience, professional knowledge and financial means. This is fully borne out by the following brief notice of some of the leading min ing tunnels of Colorado. The outcrops of mineral-bearing veins or ledges are usually found on the steep, rocky slopes of high moun tains, separated by deep and great gulches or ravines. As the veins usual ly dip into the solid interior of the mountains, shafts are sunk either on the veins themselves, ore being taken out as the process goes on, or in such proximity to the veins that they can be reached from the shafts by drifts or levels (which are really side tunnels from the shafts) and the ore stoped out and conveyed in small ore wagons along such drif Us or levels to the shaft, hoisted to the surface, and thence lowered down the steep mountain side to the nearest wagon road leading to the mill or rail road, the shafts are frequently hundreds of feet deep, and themouthsof the shafts frequently hundreds, if not thousands, of feet above the bottom of the adjoining gulch or valley, the ore hag to be hoisted by steam power to the surface (such steam power involv ing the conveyance of fuel from the val ley to the shaft house), and from the mouth, of pumping plants, in addition to the cost of hoisting the ore and sub sequently getting it down the steep hill side. The expense of pumping, hoisting and hauling seriously reduces the mar gin of profit, and in some cases extin guishes it altogether. It is obvious that, under the above circumstances, through a tunnel driven into the mountain and reaching the ore bodies at a low level say, firam the level of the bottom of the adjoining gulch not only can the ore be extract ed from below and taken out almost by natural gravity or the minimum of power, thereby saving the expense of hoisting and subsequently conveying down the steep hillside, but also drain age can be had by naturalgravity, there by dispensing with the expensive pump ing plants, costly fuel, wages of engi neers, etc. Engineering Magazine.

Chamberlain's Oollo, The department of labor lately con cluded an investigation, made at the request of congress, to ascertain wheth er women are superseding men am wage-earners in manufacturing pur suits, and, if so, to what extent. It appears from the report, which has just been made public, that the increase in the number of female employes during the last ten years has been greater than that of males. This is in acordamce with the rshowing of the last three censuses. The information on which the report ie based was obtained from less than a thousand establishments, but they are scattered over . 30 states aaid have so many employes that the figures fur nished by them may be taken as rep resenting fairly the general situation for the manufacturing industries covered. Ten years ago these establishments which reported had 64,560 employes. They had in 1895-'90 108,643 employes. The number of women over 18 had in creased 66.3 per Cent., and of women under 18 89.1 per cent. The increase in the number of male employes over 18 was 63.1 per cent., and of males uw der that age, 80.6 per cent. The women have been gaining on the men, and the juniors on the seniors. There is more work than there was ten years ago, but women have secured the larger share of it. . . ; It has been contended' that married women nave eitner suppianiea uieir husbands as wage-workers because they worked for less, or have been com pelled1 to work like their husbands, and supplement the wages of the latter, to support the household. Much has been said about the evil effects of this on family life. But the data collected by the department of labor do not support this claim. Of the 79,987 women employed, of whom 45,162 were 18 or over, 88.7 per cent, were single, 8.5 per cent, were married, and 2.5 per cent, were divorced and presumptively hadtosupport them selves. Of those wbo are married many undoubtedly hnve drunken or worthless husbands, and hence are compelled to take care of themselves. No one who haa observed the increase In the number of women wage-earners during tbe last 60 years will be sur prised at the increase during the last ten years. Tbe day when women could find work only on the farm or in, do mestic service has gone forever. The reason why women should be given employment in manufacturing industries on an increasing scale are apparent. The greater division of la bor, which is the result of new methods) of production, has mode places where their services could be utilized. Me chanical improvemnta have lessend the amount of physical exertion required of employes and have made it possible to utilize the weaker sex. The women are more trustworthy. Tbey do not get drunk. They are not likely to go on strikes. They learn mora rapidly and they stick to their work more closely. And, in addition to that, they work more cheaply. Pos sibly they can afford to do so, since they do not feci it necessary to ex pend part of their earnings for beer, whisky and tobacco. According to the report, out of a given number of instances where men and women work at the same occupa tion, and perform their work with the samedegreeof efficiency themen receive greater pay lr 76.1 per cent, of the in stances, and women 16.5 er cent. Where malm over and under 18 do the same kind of work with eqisal efficiency 79.8 per cent, of the former get the greater pay. Labor leaders claim that men get more than women do because they are organized, and are thus in a better po tt Ion to fight for high wngeia. Others contend that as on the average the needs of women workers are less than those of men they are w illing to work for leas. ChlcBgo Tribune.
