Aladdin’s Cave Nowhere.
Denver Republican
There is a ’veil-developed move
meet ou foot here to make what
will be the most original, and
unique attraction at the world’s
fair—the great mine—a successful
undertaking from a' monetary and
advertising point of view. A com
panv has been formed, to be known
S3 the American Underground
Mining Exhibit Company, with
SI,000,(K)0 capital. It is proposed
to raise half the sum in this state,
as a large part of the monster
mine will be given to working
plans of itsjeading mines.
A shaft 50x12 feet in the clear
is* to be sunk a depth of at least
fifty feet. Tne shaft will be
mounted with an iron structure, in
which the various hoisting appli
ances will be placed;-^ Entry rooms
to elevators and cages will also be
constructed. The shaft will be di
vided into eight compartments, six
for tne elevators, and one for the
air and water columns, and one for
“cranks” who may desire to. ascend
by a ladder.
- At the bottom of the shaft. an
enormous pump will be construct
ed, and at the side of the shaft a
puupro'om. A corridor in the
form of an elliptic around the floor
to be of marble taken fronS the
well-known quarries of the coun
try, lined with plate glass and ar
tistically decorated. On the inner
face of the corridor will be placed
a museum containing specimens of
ore from every mine in the union.
Colnmns of Colorado marble and
Vermont granite, with sandstones
and quartzites, will be * interspers
ed.
OutBide of lthis elliptic corridor
will be the line of drifts reached
"by adits. Erom the outer circle
of drifts different excavations will
be made, so as to form exact rep
resentations of the famous mines.
The carbonate silver ore of Lead-
ville, will be in one place, the ore
of Aspen in another, and so on.
Pennsylvania’s coal mines, Wis
consin’s iron ores, and Montana’s
copper ores will be included, ]and,
in fact, all the prominent mines of
the United States will be repre
sented. f
It is also proposed to have the
various appliances in , use in this
country seen in actual operation.
Electric drifts and steam drills
„ can be seen in operation nnd com
pared, and the force of the differ
ent powders tested. In the great
pumprooms, the greatest nnd most
powerful apparatus will be in use.
Six cages, fitted -in a most -elabo-
• rate style, will make the trip in
about five minutes, and each will
be constructed to carry from thir
ty to forty passengers, so that from
30.000 to 40,000 people could pass
up'and down in one day. The
\ shafts will be lighted with electric
lights, and sheathed with iron so
as to be waterproof. Down below
the scene will, it is believed, rival
in brilliancy and picturesqueness
the most gorgeous picture.dreamed
of by romancers or pa.inters. Alad
din’s cave would be in comparison
a common,-every-day hole in the
ground.
Large families are at a premium
In Quebec, Canada. In that prov
ince, chronicles the Chicago Her
ald; - the happy father of a family
of twelve living children is entitled
to 100 acres of crown land, and
1.000 heads of families last year
satisfied the government that they
had complied with the necessary
conditions, and were rewarded ac
cordingly. Evidently Malthusian
bogies are at a discount m the
province of old Quebec.
The crimina l statistics of sever
al civilized nations, cited by the
Hew York Voice, proves that in
new colonies the frequency of mur
der is apt to.increase, while theft
and suicide decreases. In .other
words, peril, insecurity and sudden
changes of fortune all constitute a
less potent temptation to self-de
struction than the tMium of net
tled communities alone.
Adding the first figure to the
second in 1891 gives us the third,
and subtracting the fourth from
the third gives us the second. And
if we. add all the figures we get the
number of the century. “These
interesting facts ought to mean
something,” comments the Hew
York Tribune, “but we haven’t
t -me- to find out jnst what.

Ginger DrinMng Habit.
Philadelphia Times.
The ginger habit "has supple
mented the liquor habit It has
become a kind of fad in someclass,-
ess of society, and its dangerous
inroads upon health are forcing if
upon the attention of physicians,
while as an outgrowth of high li
cense legislation, it is at the same
time recommending itself to the
attention of law-makers.
The ginger habit is worse than
the ordinary liquor habit because
it is more rapid in its effects and
means earlier raid to ttie-healtb
oE the individual. It has only re
cently come to the attention of
physicians and druggists that in
thousands of families the peppery
dose that has borne the popular
appearance of innocence- and re
spectability has become an agent
of debauchery.
The tincture of ginger, or Ja
maica ginger, as it is popularly
known; is the strongest and most
irritating alcoholic solution known,
ranking next to alc-hol absolute
which is undrinkable, and stand
ing equal to commercial alcohol
which is never used as a beverage.
The Jamaica ginger is sold by
druggists and grocers iu four-ounce
vials, and the unbottled tincture is
retailed ut one ounce and upward
During the past few months the
demand for the article, which has
been steadily growing for a num
ber of years, has been unprece
dented, nnd some druggists are al
ready beginning to “flag” habitual
inquirers.
The greatest demand is in those
sections that are at a dibtance from
the principle business centers' of
the city, although the Chestnut
and Market street druggists them
selves have experienced and noted
the rapid growth of-the traffic.
The most alarming phase of the
habit is its prevalence among wo
men.
Dr. W. G. MacConnell, of 250
South Tenth street, said yesterday:
“The tincture of ginger can be
bought for about 5 cents an ounce,
It contains fully 95-per cent, of al
cohol, so that in an ounce of' gin
ger there is more than two ounces
of whisky. I The way it is now be
ing used is amazing. I- know e
physician, a man very prominent
in his profession, who died only a
short’ time ago from the effects of
ginger drinking. You would think
physician would know better,ayd
he did, but in spite of the warnings
and protestations of bis fri^fcls in
the profession, he would nse it
daily as a beverage, dilating itone-
third.”
Pearls of Thought.
The following is a copy of what
purports to be a composition on
“Breathing,” written by a boy in a
Yorkshire school. “Breath is made
of air. If it wasn’t for our breath
we should die when we slept. Our
breath keeps the life .a-going
through our nose when we are
asleep. Boys that stay in a room-
all day should not breathe. They
shoald wait till tbey'get out doors.
Boys in a room make carbonicide.
Carbouicide is poisoner than mad
dogs. A"*henp of soldiers was in a
black hole in India, and a carboni
cide got in and killed nearly every
one before the morning. Girls
kill the breath with corsets , that
squeeze the diagram. Girls can’t
run or holler like boys, because
their diagram is squeezed too
much.” I
The Brazilian government has
failed to obtain' recognition by
Germany, Spain, Austria and Bus-
sia. At St. Petersburg the Czar
announced that' nothing would in
duce him to recognize the Repub
lic during the lifetime of Dom
Pedro. , —
The people of the United States
consume twenty-eight out of every
one hundred pounds of sugar made
in the world, and thirty pounds of
cpffee in every one hundred.
Kerosene will make tin tea ket
tles as bright as new. Saturate a
woolen rag and rub with it. It
will also remove stains from var
nished furniture-.
Habit moulds even a cast-iron
principal. •
To err is human, but to forgive
is divine.
Hotbing pleases a woman like
being loved in vain.
When conscience oversleepsber-
self, we call her remorse.
A'woman repents, not of the sin,
,but<or its consequences.
fi-
A woman’s constancy is the most
irrevelant thing in nature.
Do uot vow eternal love; it may
be that yon are preferred for time
only.
Hotkihg corrupts a mau like be
ing loved; nothing elc-vates a wo
man like loving.
The culprit who found that love
ly woman leaned to mercy in her
judgments, was—a man!
A woman cares little wlia| a mau
really is; she prefers to think him
what she likes to have him.
Yon get you name etched on the
hour-glass of time onlj* to have it
smashed ou the edge of eternity.
A man’s honor seems to consist
iu the. refusal to give away-a friend
a woman’s in the refusal to give
away herself.
We unload our superfluity upon
others and call it generosity; we
intrude upon the sorrows of our
fellows and call it sympathy.
