ROJESTVENSKY AT A BALL.
Rualu Admiral's Novel Experience
In Xondon.
I 'have had the following, interesting
little account of tine .Russian admiral,
Bojestvensky, commander of the Baltic
squadron, from; “one who knows him,”
says M. A. I*. pfiij
Admiral Bojestvensky managed to
spend some very happy days in Frig*
land a few years ago when he served
as naval attache to the Russian em
bassy, There is a story he is fond of
relating concerning his experiences in
the English capital: On his first arrival
in England he was invited to a hall In
his official Capacity. Knowing noth
ing of his pros, itive host and hos
tess, he was recommended to keep a
sharp lookout for the Russian ambassa-

World’s Largest Hospital For the
“White Plague” — Santa Fe Road
Presents Two Hotels and Other
Property Worth $1,000,000.
“Fraternal City,” N. M., the future
location of the national fraternal sani
tarium for consumptives, the world's
largest hospital for the “White plague;”
was founded recently in St. Louis by
the officers of the. fraternal organiza
tions! which have undertaken tlie work,
says a St. Louis special dispatch to the
New York Herald.
The formal announcement of tire new
city,, which wHI be located six miles
west of Laff Vegas, N. M., was made at
a banquet at the Planters’ hotel in St.
Louis.
A 'gift of $1,000,000 in property, in-
juiding the Montezuma hotel, was pre
sented 8 the sanitarium by the Atchi
son, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad; , , ,

‘ In jlmt locality. that was brightly illu-
minated; Wlmt Was his cohstornation,
j however, when the cabman sjiddenly
shouted through the trapdoor; “1 say,
I moosoo, there’s: two houses lit up.
What’s to be done?”
Bojestvensky was for the moment
[ nonplused; then Fie decided to enter
j the nearest house and take the risks, A
| glance around, however; quickly con
vinced him (hat he had invaded -the
wrong ballroom, ana he was about to'

.The admiral
was convinced that she liad not, but he
thought it, a shame to disillusion one so
fair, so be accepted (he character she
imposed on him. So pleasantly did the
time slip by in her company that it was
not until many hours later that-Admi
ral Rojestvensky reluctantly bade her
farewell and crossed Over to the other

Many Valuable Minerals Foand hr
, Analysing Damps,Says W. E. Cnrtls.
Riches are so abundant In the west
ern states that those who seek them
are very wasteful and reckless, says
William E. Curtis, the Chicago Record-
Herald’s BjWashingtbn correspondent.
The amount of valuable material neg
lected or wasted In the mines, forests,
fisheries and farming communities
\vest of the Mississippi river would
support a nation like Germany or
France. The great majority of peo
ple who have been and are engaged in
the development of the natural re
sources 6P the west utilize only the
most profitable discoveries and results
6f their labors and throw away the
rest.
Occasionally a Yankee who has not
forgotten the lessons taught : by the
struggles of his ancestors and has not
entirely discarded the habits of thrift
which; his mother taught him Is able
to devise methods by Which a great
deal of wastage Is prevented, but the
cow man still buys oleomargarine and
other butter substitutes, the lumber
man wastes one-third of his timber
and the miner leaves on the ground
valuable tailings which he has. not time
to work. Tfffs' habit of wastefulness is
peculiarly American. It cannot be
found lu any other nation orosn any
other^ continent save burs.
The geological survey has a scheme
to teach gold miners lessons in econ
omy by which it Is. hoped to Increase
the mineral, value of the output of the
western states by utlllstng valuable
ores and earths which are now wasted
or neglected, and it Is proposed to offer
an object lesson In this respect at the
Lewis and Clark exposition at “Port
land this summer.
There are about 15,000 placer mines
now being worked in the mountain re
gions of the west, at which no care
is taken to preserve the byproducts.
It is proposed to begin the- reform
with them, if la placer: mining after the
gold’ has been washed Out of the clay
or dirt there always remains a quan
tity off. heavy-metallic sand and- other
material of more or leSs Value. The
most prevalent mineral is magnetite—

mite Is another common mineral that
is ignoretrny miners, although it Is
worth from $20 to jGO a ton,wud va
rious other* offer a permanent and
profitable industry to miners who now
throw them on the dumps. j
In order to bring about a reform
'Director Walcott of the geological sur
vey has issued a circular to placer
miners throughout the United States
asking them to send in to the office at
Washington packages of not less than-
four pounds of the black sand and
heavy residue material from their
washings, Each package will be an
alyzed and classified, and experts will
be sent to make personal and thorough
