Show MADE A NEW FASHION. Good Joke Played in Old Days Would Be Fashionable. MIxNES AND on Old Camden, in his 'Remains," tel! a good story of a trick played by a knight upon a would-bfashionable Sir Philip Calthrop purged Joho Drakes, the shoemaker of Norwich in the time of King Henry VIII., of the proud humor which our people have to be of the gentlemen's cut. This knight bought as much tine French tawny cloth as should make him a gown, and sent it to the tailor's to be mack'. John Drakes, a shoemaker, coming to this tailor's and seeing the knight's gown cloth lying there, bid the tailor buy cloth of the same price and pattern and make it of the same fashion as the knight's. Not long after the knight, coming in to the tailor to be measured for his gown, and perceiving the like cloth whose it was. lying there, asked "John Drakes', the shoemaker, who will have it made of the self same fashion that yours is made of." "Then make mine as full of cuts as the shears will make it!" John Drakes had no time to go for his gown till Christmas day, when he meant to wear it. Perceiving the same to be full of cuts, he began to swear at the tailor. "I have done naught but what you bid me," quoth the tailor, "for as Sir Philip Calthrop's garment is, even so have I made yours." "Bt my latchet!" quoth John Drakes, "I will never wear gentlemen's fashions again!" London T. P.'s Weekly. THERE e IS A REASON. The Medical Times Explains Why Doctors Oppose Patent Medicines. The Medical Times for April in a moment of frankness explains the whole opposition of physicians to "patent" medicines which are taken without a prescription, in the following words: "We will hardly repeat here the specific siatement to the effect that in one year $62,000,000 has been expended on patent medicines in the United States. Enough to give every practitioner in the country a yearly income of $2,000. In the fac of such facts as these, all talk of love of huand manity, altruism, the like becomes cheat) and nauseating. It appears to us that such buncombe should give place to homely common sense." Reliable authority states that the gross amount of the "patent" medicine business is about $40,000,000 instead of $02,000,000 but taking the Medical Times' figures as correct they represent an outlay of considerably less than $1 per capita for home medication. The cost of doctors' fees exclusive of medicines except such as are dispensed for the same period, probably was approximately $2:50,000,-00This is reached by allowing an average income of $2,000 to each of the 115,000 physicians in the United States. Even allowing that a gross business of $62,000,000 is to be divided between 115,000 physicians the income of each would not be increased more than $540. REHEARSAL IN A CAR. Professional Entertainer Was Almor.t Too Successful. "The other night, coming home in the car," said the professional entertainer. "I began to wonder if I. could bring tears to my own eyes as I do to the eyes of the other people. I tried. I thought of all the wrongs I had committed, and felt sorry for people I had wronged, i thought of all the mistakes I had made that other people had profited by and pretty soon the tears began to gather in my eyes and roll down my cheeks. "I forgot there were other people in the car who might notice me. Soon a woman got up from across the car and came to me. " 'I see, sir,' said she, 'that you are In some trouble. Can I do anything to help you?' " Txrd bless you. no, madam.' I told her, hastily wiping away my tears, I am a professional entertainer and was practicing on myself. That's all.'"

Yonkeis Statesman 1 MINING One day last week a bid of $1,500 was made for a seat upon the Salt Lake Mining Stock exchange. Most of the Utah mines closed down on the 3rd, 4th and 5th, for the usual Fourth of July rest. An unusual interest ir. mining properties in the mountains south of Bur-leIdaho, has been noticed during the past three weeks. About a dozen men aiv being employed at the Canon mine, near Albion, Idaho, and a large quantity of ore is betag taken out. A number of quartz locations have been made recently in Boulder canyon on Lanid creek, in Idaho, and a number of the locators believe they haw fortunes in sight. , The Luman copper mine, near Fremont county, Wyoming, that was recently sold to Senator W. A. Clark for $1.5uu.(MiU, is now being systematically developed. Mineral paint will probably be one of the productions of Cassia county, Idaho, in the near future. Two locations were made recently, one of 100 and the other of 120 acres. Officials of the Butte Mining companies centering in the east, estimate that the June production .of the Butte mines will show a falling off of pounds of copper, as compared with June last year. Fifteen hundred tons of ore a day are now being treated at the new plant of the Utah Copper company at Garfield. By the end of the week another section of the great mill will be placed In commission. The shaft house of the Strong mine at Leslie, fourteen miles east of Laramie, Wye,, was totally destroyed by fire on the 2nd. The shaft was nearly 400 feet deep, and all the hoisting machinery was destroyed or damaged. Beginning early this fall, the largest and most modern gold reduction plant, in Nevada and probably in the world will be in operation at Blair, In the Silver Peak district, about twenty-fivmiles northwest of Goldfleld, in Esmeralda county. In spite of fire and its attending drawbacks, the Utah mine of Fish Springs continues to reward the efforts of the management with so generous a hand that no decrease in the usefulness of the organization has been experienced. Consolidated The Gold Mountain company has placed the third shift at work in both mine and mill. This organization owns the Annie Laurie, the Kimberly and the Mammoth groups at Gold Mountain, and more men are in demand. For the first half of the current year the dividend payments reported to the Mining World by eighty-eigh- t gold, silver, lead, copper, zinc and quick-Iye- r mines in the United States, including Alaska territory, having an of capitalization outstanding amounted to the huge sum of high-grad- e Ther-mopolis- e $337,-755,72- $38,560,812. The rumor from New York that the Guggenheim interests are after the control of all of the Balaklala properties in California, has called attention anew to the recently organized Guggenheim company in the east with a capitalization sufficient to take in many of the great mines of the west The extensive plant of the Hanna-pa- h mine, located about twenty-thremiles from Tonopah, Nev., was entirely destroyed by fire on July 2. The principal owners of the mine are Samuel Newhouse of Salt Lake and A. J. Bettles, the cyanide man. The fire consumed all the buildings and descended into the shaft. A private wire from Cobalt says that the Nipissing Mining company, now under the Newhouse management, has found another very rich vein four inches wide on No. 400. This is adjacent to the Tretheway Temis-kami- , Hudson bay and Orien properThis makes the second vein ties. struck in two weeks. The Skaggs property, in the Dolly Varden district in Nevada, which was sold about nine months ago to a Boston firm, is proving far richer than was first thought. The mines are being worked and are paying their own way at the present time. The price the property sold for was $1511.000, the last payment having just been made. Word from the camp of Seven Troughs, Nevada, is to the effect that the Seven Troughs Mining company at last has caught the thieves who have been stealing gold ore from the Fairvlew group of this Utah A woman, the wife of a proposition. miner, has been arrested along with her husband, and they are now in jail at Winnemucca. The great $100,000,000 smelter trust, head by Simon Guggenham, senator-elec- t from Colorado, has fallen under the ban of the federal authorities, and experts are conducting an Investigation to determine whether It Is a combination in violation of law, upon which it Is expected to base a suit for dissolution of the corporation and possibly rrlmlnal proceedings on the evidence being accumulated.

A young man, recently married, early in the spring secured a suburban place, mainly with the idea of "fresh, home-grow-n vegetables." Every evening he would hurry through his supper and rush out to his garden, where he displayed more energy than skill. But, alas! When many little green things began to break the ground in his neighbors' gardens, his own remained as bare as the Sahara. "It certainly has got me beat," he confided to a friend at his office one day. "I can't understand why not a blessed thing has come Up I planted peas and corn and tomatoes." "Perhaps the seed were refective,' the friend suggested. "I hardly think it was that," the gardener replied, "for 1 got the very best paid 15 cents a can for them."
