Tlie\nhouse is comfortably built, the\ndtaing department is well looked\nafter, there is gnod stabling, and\nthe bar is supplied wilh the besl.\nA good deal of work is now\nbeing done at the mines in this\nvicinity, and prospectors are\npelting awny vigorously at nil\ninerous claims.\nTrout fishing in the lake just\nnow is tine. Many big catches\nhave recently been made.\nU. S. Metal Product,\nWilli ull lhe oilier advances\nthat the United States have made\nwithin the last year or two the\nsurprising fact is announced thai\nin its mineral products il decreased. The decrease is not\nvery great, to be sure, but is\nthere, as lhe ligures show. Ill\n180a lhe total value of the country's mineral product was #022,\u25a0\nllHT.'ili*. In 18H0 it was 115021,901,-\n019. Despite this decrease, however, copper, petroleum, gold\nand aluminum increased their\nproduct, nnd in value they\nreached the top notch, breaking\nthe record.\nThe total product of gold was\n\u00a7551,088,000, a gain ol 12.15 per\ncent over the previous year and\nmore than 25 per eenl over 1894.\nIt is held that lhe increase i.s due\nto the outputs of lhe mines located in Colorado, South Dakota,\nand Utah. In this conuootion it\nis interesting In mile that the\nAlaska gold mines will doubtless\ncuiise lhe product of 189\" to be\nfar and away in advance nf the\nproductof 1890, although it must\nbe remembered Hint lhe Klondyke is British soil.\nThe coining value of tlio silver\nproduct of 1890 wus $70,009,280,\nor u comniercinl value of *$-,\u25a0\n477,951), This is nu increase of\n$1,1118,2110 over 18115 und more\nthan $12,0(10,(1111) over lhe pro-\nduel nf 1894, The chances are\nthai the produci nf silver this\nyear will be u good (leal less,\nowing lo lhe drop iu the price nf\nthai mi'lul.\nThe production nf copper in\n1890 aggregated 153,007,1119 lbs.,\nor 202,285 long tons, so called,\nthe total value of which was\n#48,698,207, A comparison of\nthese ligures with the statistics\nof the production of copper\nshows Hint this aggregate is far\niu excess of any year's product\nof which tlie United Stales can\nboast. It is even greater than\nthe gold product of any year\nprior to 1890, the Immensity lining only realized Iiy a comparison of ligures.\nThe value of lend, according\nIn Hie llllicilll lij,'lires nf the gnv-\nitu in, shows u decline, ill\nthough there is u gain iu the\ntotiil quantity mined, lu 1890,\n187,01)11 slioi'l Inns of lend were\nproduced, which wus worth fill,\n172,1100.
