The dog, therefore, in this case, is the perfect personification of selfishness. So, while the hog may be a good simile to use in some cases, and may at times be assothink that what I am about to write can be better exemplified by the dog‘in-the-manger than by the great American hog. For, in this case, the animal lam going to write about has. none of the attributes of an American about ‘bim—neither patriotism,. gratitade or feel for the land in which he lives. In looking over the exhibits from . Nevada. county yesterday -morning I noticed that some of. the most promi-} nent mines were unrepresented, and I marveled at it. Mr. Shoecraft, Mr. Eddie and the gentleman who has charge of the Amador exhibit (which adjoins that of Nevada), were conversing a short distance from me. I turned, and, addressing the two former gentlemen, I said: “I don’t see any rock here from the North Star or the ‘Massaebusetts Hill. . understood they were doing quite Sells and I am eur5 apoke of “net 8 ‘well known, bat which, ‘Tod their owners had the least spark of pride, and had sent samples of their products to swell the already. gorgeous display, would have added great glories to the banner county of the State. .A smile of two commissioners. What did they say? Well, these gentlemen live in Nevada county, and it. might not be politic in me to repeat their remarks. In spéaking of the manager of the North Star and Massachusetts. Hill mines, a man named James D. Hague, they were very outspoken. Mr. Shoecraft said to me; “We told him we knew he did not want to sell the mines; that all we wanted was samples of the ores; that it would not cost him a cent to send it or to have it returned. The mine is turning out about $100,000 a month and is owned by foreigners. It would have done them no harm and would have been of some benéfit to the county, perhaps. He said he would ‘gee,’ and I -guess he has been ‘seeing’ ever since.” “Yes,” said Mr. Eddie (which his given name is John and not James, as the Examiner printed it), ‘the would like to place a fence around the county and call it all his own. It might have been a little trouble to him to box it up, and then, too, five or ten cents’ worth of gold might ‘have éscaped his greedy grasp. Oh, he is a patriot, and he loves the county—for what he can get out of it.” “Well, gentlemen,” said the representative from Amador, “my experience has been the same as yours, only more so. You seem to pull together, while I, of a committee of five, have to do all the work. But what have you got to growl about? Suppose some of your big mines failed to show. up—what of that? You bave taken the first prize on the opening night and you will take the other on the 22d instant. We all admit that you have the best exhibit, 180. why grieve over more counties to conquer ?” And he was right. There is not time nor space to overshadow the exhibit of Nevada county. The papers here admit its superlative excellence, the people admire it and the jadges are forced to acquiesce in the general verdict. Let me say, while I think of it, that I have warned your people against the ‘influx of foreign capital. There is a remedy for it. I know what it is. You will inthe future, if you take my advice, emancipate yourselves from the yoke which is slowly but surely being put around your necks.

Benjamin, superintendent of the mining display at the Mining Fair, was a most disgusted man last night. After working for the past two months to make a’ success of the display, and getting the North Bloomfield mine in the west gallery in operation, he found his efforts. frustrated by the carelessness of an employe. The mine was started up yesterday afternoon and was going along in great style. Suddenly one of the employes began” monkeying -with one of the big giants and the result was a swirl of water, a snapping of a joint, followed by a ringing of signals. Then the water was shut off, and the blue sky over the dome was no bluer than the air around the irate supérintendent. He wears a happier face now, for the damage has been repaired, and the big mine will be in operation again this afternoon. Feil Under the Train. Robert Eastin, a young man from Washington who says he is married, was run over by the outbound N. O. N: G. BR.

Ite extreme sensitiveness and yet its great strength showed how well ‘supplied it must have been with nerves. ‘It was always moving, always feeling or smelling or carrying something, and the little sort, of finger tip seemed the center of sensibility. I remember well that she -would never allow us to touch it, and she guarded it with great care, folding it up if she thought it was iu any danger. It is said by the natives that an elephant deprived of this trunk tip is like a man deprived of his sight, 60 helpless docs it become. Tommy's.
