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- iilefen Thousand Acres Given For ^Fraternal City," Which Will Be 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; , , , T> e city of Las Vegas donated 10,000 I dor, who was also to be present, When acW of the most fertile land in New | % evening arriVed;;Admiral (then cap- Mexieo.

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' .beat a retreat when he was Sjibken to ,^^^i|jQi|iurladx, who imagined that .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.

Clark, Exposition - la : Portland, 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.

Chro 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 exandha 1 idn*£pf localities where W- II ininary teats give promise of finding platinum'ori other metals In profitable quantities.
