SALTING A MINE. How Fair Sirens Tried te Gull an Ex< pert. St. Louis Globe Democrat. Some ten years ago.a friend of mine, who had been engaged for years in mining in California, Nevada and New Mexico, and who is about the best expert Iever knew, was employed to examine amine which had been favorably reported upon by three other experts, He took his own assayer and went tothemine. It did not greatly please bim at the first glance, asthe rock looked dead, and there were no indications of any rich ore. He went through the mine, taking samples from ali parts, which be turned over to his assayer, fully expecting that he would find very little min- eral. But to his surprise theore run about $800 a ton. He went through the mine again, exercis. jug particular care in the selection of his en the results of the assay were even an before. He was almost convinced that the ming ras genulne, ag he did not gee the least trace of Saiting process. He went to the owners and told them the result of his examination, but said that be should make no report unless they would turn the mine over to him for 48 hours, and let him do what he pleased with it. After some hesitation they consented, and the next morning he took a gang of men down the shaft and biasted to the right and left, clean- Ing away the exposed rock, and taking his samples from the newly exposed Wall. The assays made from ‘hese did not yield a trace of mineral, and he saw that the mine must have been saited, but how he could not imagine. Al last he went to the owners and asked them point blank how they had done it. hey oe that there was no longer the slightest chance ol selling the mine, finally told him. They had Seraped together a quantity of the soft tale that is nearly always found adhering to the footwall of mines and mixed gold dust With it until the composition would assay about $50,000 a ton. ‘They then put it Into shotguns and fired tt against walls of the mine. The force of the explosion Scattered ft over the entire wall and caused the tale to penetrate every crevice, so that gold would be found In @ sample taken from any part of the mine. PERSONAL BXPERIENCE. On another occaston I myself came near being Victimized. I went to examine a mine in New Mexico, and my assays ran very high. ‘The mine | looked weli, and I thought at first that there could be little doubt of 1ts value. But with the conser- vatism which comes from long expertence, I deter- mined to exhaust every means of examination, and | told the owner that I Wanted to sink the shaft ten feet deeper, and take my samples from the ore I should tind there. As 1was going home that night at an usually late hour, I chanced to pass the mouth of the shaft, and was surprised to hear sounds pro- ceeding from it, as if some one was churning at the bottom. Determined to discover the cause of | these unusual noises, I crept to the platform and looked down the shait. 1 saw two men at the bottom, one drilling a hole and the other working a churndasher. Soon the | Grilling ceased. ‘The man with the chura some liquid intothe hole and pounded upon {t with | somethin, | conversation trom where I lay, and soon found | Uoat what they were doing was of great personal interest to me. lke a churndasher, 1 could hear their ‘One sald: “We out to have set a guard at the mouthof the shaft.” “Nonsense,” sald his companion; “no one ever comes here at this hour.” “Well,” said the frst, “he can sink his ten feet after we get through, and twenty more if he wants to.” and quietly went home.

A NaRROW SHELF OVER A Door, decorated witha few good pieces of china, or even one or two good terra cotta figures, lends a great charm to a room and a furnished look to the walls, more particu- larly if there be curtains to the door.

From the New York Sun. ‘There 1s. good deal of uniformity tn the mis- takes that people make. For instance, a large number of persons every year put letters in the Post-office without postage stamps, or without ad- dresses, or with wrong addresses. Such mistakes areso common that various expedients have be- come necessary to correct them, Among these are the printing of the names of the senders on the outside, the short postage stamp, and the bulk of the work of the dead-letter office. ‘Mistakes in drawing law papers are so common that the newest codes make provision for them. ‘Thus, in some cases, where an affidavit has been worn to before a notary or and t ‘Amant has rected . affix canal the Tuelb sa wellasteled principle of aw that a man cannot take adi of hisownerror.

Thus in a law ease counsel frequently say plaintiff when they mean deiendant. They will say Mr. Jones when they mean Mrs. Jones, ‘The mind works 80 Tapidiy in both speaking and reading that words of similar appearance ‘or sound are frequently used for one another, Thoughts follow one another go rapidiy that they often appear to over- take one another so that one which should be spoken last is uttered first, If a thought ts upper- most in the mind of any one it ts probable that it will find utterance at some most inopportune and place. ‘Thus, what are called absent-minded people are those who are 80 absorbed with one idea that they become ob- livious to surroui and keep attention riveted upon that leo, no matter bow Vexatious may be the result, This state of mind, while it 1s characteristic of great genius, and ia necessary to attain perfection in any art or science, gives rise to many ludicrous results, and is largely used forthe funny characters of fetion.

Some years ago, when the late Jas. Watson Wevbd ‘Was editor Of the Courier and Enquirer, he had a Verbal set-to with Theodore E. ‘Tomlinson, then a lively practising lawyer with a strong interest in Politics. The editor had considerabiy the advant— age of the lawyer in having bis newspaper at command. Tomlinson on one occasion determined ‘togive the editor a shot, and fixed up a speech for @ public meeting on the Battery. one paragraph ‘this speech Was cularly severe, and the point of it was that Mr. ‘Tomunson insinu- ated that his opponent had done certain things, by @ series of allegations that he, ‘Tomlinson, had not done them. Oue ot Mr. Tom- lnson’s sentences Was this: “I never crawled on my belly to secure a bribe.” But in the Heruid of ‘the nextday Mr. Tomlinson was represented as saying, “I never crawied on my belly to secure a wite.”* Of courge Mr. Tomlinson wasiurlous, and he went to the Herald office to blow up the reporter. But his chagrin and defeat may be imagined when the fact Is recorded that he was confronted with his own manuscript, where he had written the word “bribe” in such a way that the printer ‘Was quite justified in making it “wife.” Mistakes of architects and engineers are some- times costly. An illustration is seen in the differ- ence between the two big Vanderbilt grain eleva- tors at the North River depot. One was bulit broadside to the stream. Tne other, at about the same cost, Was built with the end 1 the stream on a pler, ‘so that vessels may come up simultane- ously on both sides. The position of che first one Was a costly mistake. Old Commodore Vanderbilt was a shrewd man when lookiug at any new-tashioned thing. Once man Came to him with a device (or manufactur ing frega water on board ship out of salt water.
