THE MINING FAIR.
In commenting upon the Mining Fair
with which the Jubilee festivities are
to be continued for awhile, the Oakland Tribune says: It is a praiseworises td fulfill the utmost -expectations
of those who conceived it. “Only a perproper idga-of how well and thoroughly
the plans have been carried out, for
there is no questioning the fact that’
the fair worthily commemorates the her point of view.—Town Topics.
great &poch in whose honor it is given.
The prevailing -Kiondyke craze has,
of course, tinged everything with more
or less'of the AJaskan hues, but as, af-.
ter all, the Yukon treasures are a matter of speculation they cannot compare
with the actual facts that are to be
seen on every side as regards California. The huge cube of the exact size
of the*billion or more dollars worth of
gold that has been taken out of our
mines since Marshall found the first
speck of the yellow metal fifty years
ago conveys a lesson that fills the mind
with wonder when its exact meaning is
comprehended. Then, too, the fact is
brought out that California is still adding about $18,000,000 a year to the
wealth of the world and that the indications are that the period of our
quartz. mining is but in its infancy
Several of the big mines of California
are turning out over $100,000 a month,
the Utica and Rawhide containing
veins that seem to be almost endless.
Many an hour ean be profitably
passed at the fair by those interested
in the subject: The methods of niining
from Alpha to Omega are shown in},
practical shape, the ingenuity of the
exhibitors having extended to a veritable “drift” into which visitors are taken and there in the darkened chambers are the miners drilling away just
as they do in the mines proper. All
kinds and varieties of ore attract the
attention of the mineralogist and the
past is revived by pictorial representations of early scenes and photographs
of.those who were famous in California
thirty or forty yearsago. The scene
is instructive throughont, and one on
which the Californian can gaze-with
pride. It shows “how thoroughly we
have earned our title of “The Golden
State,” and what is more, it proves that
instead of being a declining industry
here, it is, on the contrary, booming.
such is the case, the best of which is
the actual results, for statistics show
that our production of gold is advancing at the rate of over a million a year.
The fair will do particular good at this
time for it will call the attention of the
country not only to what we have done
but to what we are doing.

Dr. De Wirr Tatmace has just married a third wife. No one has ever disputed the reverend getleman’s familiarity with biblical texts, and upon one of
them it seems evident that he is something of an enthusiast. His actions .
certainly indicate that he believes “it is .
not good for man to be-alone.”

A. Clever Deceit.
The manipulation of the hoist and.
drop at thé imitation shaft in the Min.
ing Fair, San Francisco, is said to be .
very ingenious. The visitor who descend to.the lower levels of the sup-'
mine is requested to step upon
thecage. After be does so, the cage is
started on its downward trip. It really
moves at a snail's pace, but the sides of
the shaft, which are convass,are painted
gn exact imitation of the real thing,
;and they are. made to move at lightnitic speed, so that the visitor has the
sensa’ of going hundreds’ of feet
into the ls of the earth. When he
ascends the motion is reversed. Tou
novice the effect*is equal to a descent
ja a real mine. . projectors of the
affair are entitled to credit for their
clever ingenuity. aS
