4 OVERLAND TO ITALY Rev. George Bodges Entertainingly Describes the Journey From Munich to Venice, THROUGH SNOW IKTO SUKSHJNE. if Some of the Delights and Annoyances Incident to Eailway TraTel on the Continent. A PLACE WHERE ETEEIEODI SMOEES. 4 Ecbs Customs that Appear T.17 In the Eyes or an American.

lCORRESPOirDESCB or THE DISPATCH. I Venice, Aucnst 14. Eailway traveling on the continent of Europe is queer. In the first place, the cars are all of the compartment kind. And that means all sorts of tribulation.

You have to ruth about frantically after a seat Forty or fifty doors Ewinjj open, some into first class "places, gome into second class, some into third, and you hare to choose the right division. Each compartment Colds from six to eight persons. You look into door after door and every place seems full. There is no sucb thine as getting aboard the train and walking through until you find a seat. You have to find your place first.

If you have a good-sized bag in each hand, tbe interest ol the thing is multiplied. And then, when you are once safely in your place, and the "guard" (as they call the conductor) has shut to the door, and locked it according to the pleasant fashion they have here, you look about upon your fellow passengers, and the first discovery that you are likely to make is that they are all smokers that is, the masculine contingent of them are. The women do not smoke in railway carriages over here, as a general rnle. Some of them smoke even smoke cigarettes bnt not on journeys. That is one thing 10 be thanklul for.

For ill the men smoke, and they smoke everywhere and upon all occasions. I believe that tbe churches are the only places over nere wmen uo not Emeu 01 mcouue. smoke in tbe street, and in the reading rooms and parlors of hotels, even in the din-ins room. In a good many hotels, candles are set alight upon the table at the last course that cigars may be kindled at them. The presence of ladies is no' consideration whatever.

One man will -sit in the company of half a dozen ladies and make himself odorous and odious, tVIIHOUT AS APOLOGY. The expectoration vice is remarked upon In Americans by foreigners with a good deal of contempt, and the obtrusiveness of the spittoon in tbe turnishing of public buildings is very amusing to some toreign critics of our manners. But tbe nicotine vice over on this side balances all that. 1'eople here have not even the grace to smoke good tobacco. Everywhere you go yon breathe the incense of burnt cabbage leaves.

It is the supreme nuisance of railway traveling. On every train there are half a dozen or so compartments marked "Nicht rancher" or "non lameur." In every other compartment of the whole train the smoker may have his will. Smoking is allowed here wherever it is not forbidden. Well, you get your luggage stored away and sit down amid the smoke, and the train moves on. About every half hour it seems as often as that everybody has to get out.

You must change cars! Down comes the luggage, out you go, in at one door of a station and out at another, blundering aronnd amid the uncertainties of directions given in a language imperfectly comprehended, and the search lor a seat basins over again in a new train. You have crossed the boundaries of a new country and your baggage must be looked into, or the tram you were on goes no further and you must take another, or there is some other German or French or Italian reason for a change, and change you must. For a week or two this is quite interesting. But as your luggage gets heavier and your pilgrimage gets longer you weary of it. JfOISr LITTLE BELLS.

There are other peculiarities also about railway traveling on the continent of Europe, some queer, some pleasant, some not so pleasant They have a lunny way of set-tine a little bell to ringing in the stations of Austria and Italy when the train comes in, and keeping it going till the train goes out Jingle, jingle, tinkle, tinkle, chimes "Jie bell, set in a little zinc rat-trap by the station door. It is rather agreeable for a minute or two, but when the train, stops 25 minutes for a table d'hote dinner, as it does sometimes, and the bell makes no pause you want to break it At Ala, just at the boundary between Austria and Italy, the bell rang for two hours. But the continental railways are well managed for all that. Especially in Belgium and Germany, where they are under Government control. There is a neatness, and orderliness, and dispatcn about the conduct of things which is admirable.

The guard appears at your window in gorgeous uniform, with red and blue and gold decidedlv pronounced in it, and takes your ticket before the train starts. You cannot well get into the wrong train. At every cross-road an official stands beside the bar, and, with head erect and heels well together, presents arms. The station master is clad in colors which would make a major general in the United States army look insignificant in comparison, and his manners have a stateliness abont them which would become tbe President himself. The stations are well arranged and are dten handsome buildings.

They are always clean. When the train stops tbere is a porter at your door who will take your beg and baggage and carry them for you to the ends of the earth for a lew pfennigs or a few centimes. And when vou reflect that it takes 100 pfennigs to make 25 cents of our money, and 100 centimes to make 20 cents, you are conscious of a combination of ease with economy which is not unpleasing. PITTSBT4BC BBAKES TJSED. The slow trsins here are the slowest which drag their weary length over the surface of this planet But the fast trains put 1 mile into two minutes with quite a little time to spare.

The Oriental express, which runs from the Mediterranean Sea to the English Channel, making few stops, needs only Pullman cars to make it quite a comfortable train. It tears along till the telegraph poles fly past like the pickets of a fencel One good Pittsburg invention they have here in the airbrake. It gives one a bit of a home feeling to watch the cars away out in the middle of Germany marked "Westinghouse-Bre Leitungswagen." You can feel safe in a car labeled with that inscription. Of course the scenery helps the journey vuw j.ue quaint towns, wun ineir narrow streets and tjueer roofs, are always interesting. The little houses standing in the fields, beside the brooks, along the hillsides, are always a pleasant sight There are rivers whose names we learned a good many years ago in the geographv; there are great crucifixes set beside "the track where some county road crosses it, and monasteries and ruined castles crowning the height, and miles and miles of terraced Vineyards; there are the people at the stations, in their unfamiliar dresses.

There are priests and soldiers. These sights keep the pilgrim from weariness. So we go out of Munich a city of broad I streets and handsome bnildings and one ot Ithe finest picture galleries in the world up to Innsbruck in the Tyrol, among the Eastern Alps, where the snow-toptd mountains shut you in on every side. You can see the puow, but that helps little. The san beats down till the white streets leel like tbe burning fieryfurnace.

The only cool places in Innsbruck in July are the great stone You Bit down in the Hofkirchec beside the tomb of the Emperor Maximilian, where the immense bronze statues stand in solemn rows, just as thev stood when Columbus discovered America, and the fierce heat is left outside. It never gets in through these strong walls of stone. PROM AUSTRIA TO ITALY. Outside, the sun glows upon the golden roof ot tbe expensive balconv which Frederick, "of the Empty Pockets," built, and burns like a conflagration in the arcaded streets where the people go about in tbe shadow of the arches, keeping out of reach of these shafts of fire. Within tbe shadow, so far back under the great houses that all is dim and uncertain in the faint light, are the little shops, each of them as big as the inside of a large dry goods box, and redolent with earthy smells like the bins of a cellar.

In St Jacob's Church is a miraculous picture, a Madonna painted by Cranach. It hangs over the high altar, set in the midst of another and much larger picture, which makes a frame for it, and emphasized by the light ol candles. Tbe church wall down by the door is hung with little framed tablets, some painted in illuminated letters, some worked on cardboard like the "texts" which children used to make, all saying "Maria hat gebolfen." Tbere are little wax arms and legs there, too, and eyes and babies, symbols of gratitude for some heavenly belp. From Innsbruck the way goes over the Bremer Pass out 6f Austria into old Bomans led their armies along this path to and fro between the capital and the provinces. At the Pass snow lies close beside the track.

As the descent begins on the other side the rivers are seen to be flowing in a new direction. We have passed the dividing line. The hill and the sun find their way into the Black Sea. The Eisah empties into the Adige, and the Adige into the Adriatic. Tbe crossing of the Alps is like climbing over a wall into a garden.

The country blooms with corn and wine. The rocks are clad in garments of green. There is lruit among tbe leaves of the trees. Away reach the white woods, glaring in the sun. Then comes a long bridge, with lagoons on either side.

There are fishing boats with sails ot red and yellow, and a city whose marble walls rise yonder out of the water. Gondolas are in waiting at the station. We are in Venice. G. H.

Jos. Penn Avenue Stores, WEALTH0F THE WEST .1 1 Official Statement of the Mineral Resources of Washington. FEARS OF AN INDUS OUTBREAK Which ITay Peter Prospectinj: In Some Undeveloped. Sections. THE MINERAL EICHES OP MISSOURI rsraCTXL TXLIQEAM TO THB 0181X00.1 New Yobk, August 3L The following reports have been received from the leading mining centers of the West The BUte Geologist has been collecting information abont the mineral resources of Washington, and gives the following account of the natural wealth, of the eastern part of tbe Btate East of the Salmon River district is the Galena dtstrict, where there has as yet been very little work done.

Large cropplngs are to be seen on tbe surface, however, and the ore assays all the way from 50 ounces of silver up to HOOO. For some reason very little work has been done on the properties, probably because tbe late cold excitement up in Rock Creek, la British Columbia, took all the miners awav. North of the Salmon River district Wannicut Lake and Palmer Mountain districts, are some of the richest free gold properites on the North American continent. One lead there, from wblcb 700 pounds of ore was taken, showed fa to $7 per pound, and the parties who are working it have made big money for the last two years by simply working tbe ore with a common band mortar and selling tbe mineral from 17 to 18 per ounce. One of tbe principal claims up there is the Bunker Hill cold property.

Tbey have a two-foot vein of white quartz carrying free gold and have 80 or SO feet of work done in tbe shape of a tunnel. A specimen of ore taken from tbis lead weighing five pounds after reducing gats eight ounces of gold and sold for tHO. Another specimen weighing three and one-halt pounds produced $90 upon reducing. TheVessie, tbe Tribune and tbe Occident claims, all owned by tbe same parties, with their three veins, almost make a mountain of qnartz. Several other large lodes of gold quartz ore are found here, among them tbe Black Bear, tbe Rainbow, etc.

In this district is situated tbe celebrated Iranboe. which bas a four-foot vein of born and brittle silver ore, a carload of which was recently shipped to Denver and netted 833 ounces of silver per ton. Tbev have a hoisting plant and are working 10 or 15 men, and have 600 tons of ore on the dump piled up ready for a railroad. fllnny Mines Changing Hands. Sas Fbancisco An unusual number of sales of mining property in California have been made recently and in some cases the prices have been fairly high.

A half interest in the Helvetia mine was sold for 10,000, the Richmond Mime, at Julan, brought 2,000, and the Fraction and Vulture mines were sold for $4,000. The Stanislaus gravel mine, near Byrns Ferry, which was bought by J. B. Haggin and Senator Hearst, 16 years aeo for $7,000, was sold by them two weeks ago to Mr. Whcaton for $10,000.

Wheaton'gave a bond of $1,000 and began work on the mine at once. Mininc men speak highly of the property. and agree that it will pay if worked on a large enough scale. It has been bonded several times within the past few years, but none ot the would-be purchasers had capital enough to carry on profitable operations, and the property reverted to Haggin Hearst every time. The'original owner, Thomas Evans recently bought an extension of the claim.

The most economical quartz mining on record has been done on Herman Tripp's claim on the Mokelumne river. The ledge yields an average of only $1 45 a ton, and most miners would toss such rock as that over the waste dump, and think it hard luck that they had to handle it at all. Tripp's first cleanup yielded $1,740, and the total expense of mining, hauling and milling was only $725, leaving a profit of $1,000 for the month. Tripp says he wants nothing better than plenty of two-dollar rock. Of course it does not follow that ore oi that grade could be worked profitably everywhere.

The situation of Tripp's ledge and his facilities for hauling and milling must be peculiarly favorable and involve very little labor. Rlcbes Concealed by tbe Earth. Hekmitage Missouri has the finest fire clay, the best mineral paints, and immense quantities oi a great variety of building stones, and when we come to speak of her iron, coal, lead and zinc mines, there is no way of computing either their quantity or value. Just think for a moment of an area 30 miles square that is underlaid with vast bodies of lead and zinc ores. Tbis can bo said of the county of Hickory.

For 60 years the citizens here have dug and smelted lead for sporting purposes, only having to dig below the grass roots to find all they need. Some years Ago a small smelting oven was erected at Hermitage, the connty seat of Hickory county, and then the citizens would go out and dig a few thousand pounds and haul to the smelter and sell to buy their family necessaries when tbey couldn't be engaged with.their crops, bnt "no regular mining bas ever beea commenced until this year. The Mammoth camp is coming to the front to stay there, and will be the largest mining camp in the territory as there is now in sight enough ore to keep 200 stamps running for years. The Beymert camp, in Pinal county, is in a canyon, and consists of a mill, stores of the company, boarding houses, blacksmith shops, postoffice, an express office and about 50 houses occupied by those employed in and around the mine. It is a very prettv location and sickness is unknown.

A 20-stamp mill is kept running night and day, the ore being of such a nature that after milling roasting is unnecessary. An Indian Outbreak Possible. Silteb City, Aug. 21. It has ben two months since the commencement of the rainy season, and the mountains are full of prospectors.

There is water everywhere, and the conditions are all favorable for prospecting, except tbe of an outbreak of Indians. There bas been a small band of renegades out since the capture of Geronim nearly four years ago, but tbey have confined their depredations to Mexico and Arizona until within the past few days," when tbey made their appearance in the vicinity of the Hatchet mountains, in the southern part of this county, where they have killed lonr men. This has put prospectors on their guard, and some of the elderones Say that there is every reason to fear a big outbreak. The Indians on the San Carlos reservation have been restless for several months and have been getting cartridges in every possible way. The extremely dry weather and the shortness of the grass last spring made an outbreak almost impossible but now the feed is better than it has been for years and a band of hostile Indians could hardly find a place in the two territories where they could not get plenty ot grass and water for their ponies.

An Indian outbreak now would practically put a stop to prospecting for the rest of the year, and would result in the cessation of operations in some of tbe smaller camps in Southwestern New Mexico and Sonthweaslern Arizona. The Situation la Colorado. Dekteb The shipments of oe from Aspen have been gradually increasing in amount for several weeks past There has been no large increase at any one point, bntj a number of the smaller producers have been adding to their output Interesting discoveries have been made in the Little Annie on Bichmond Hill. That property has been producing some ore for a year past, but it shows much better now than ever before. A number of other properties are starting up on Bichmond Hill under lease.

The Midnight, adjoining the Little Annie, has been worked for some months, but a plant of machinery is now being put on to continue development Machinery is also being put on the Park laim'on the same.hili. G. F. Browne, who originated theldeaofagrea mine'to be exhibited at tbe World's Fair at Chicago in 1893 has just returned from that city. He says: "The proposition that I have made to tbe board of directors has been favorably considered.

A.t tbe meeting of tbe Columbian Commission, on July 3 last, I presented tbe matter to them and a special committee of three was appointed. This committee will submit their report on September 16. The scheme will be carried out and I have several prominent mining capitalists lu Nevada and Montana interested in the scheme." Pushing New Developments. San Antonia Csptain Edward W. Morrison, President of one of the wealthy mining syndicates near Zacatecas, Mexico, recently passed through here.

A 20-stamp mill is now being erected by the company, and the work of 'developing the property will be pushed rapidly. The Colorado gold mines in Chihuahua are be worked extensively, and operatives will begin in a lew weeks, a company of Mexican capitalists having been formed for that purpose. The mines in the Hactopillus district are only a short distance from the.rich siver mines of Boss Shepherd. These gold mines are regarded as being the richest in Mexico. is already an extensive body of rich ore in sight Tbe Wrong Kind of a SIHI.

I Idaho City James Brooks and Jones Bros, have two men at work on theHarri-son mine, three miles sonth of Idaho City. The vein is large, carries considerable copper and some silver ore on the surface. It will be developed to a depth of 40 or 9 feet tbis year. The Washington mill had to shut down a few days ago for lack of ore. The mine is a very large one and well developed, bnt the mill is only prepared for working gold rock, and most of tbe ore coming out from their depth is argentiferous.

Next year roadsters and dry crushing batteries will be put in, when there will be no lack of ore. The silver ore is very rich. HOESFORD'S ACID PHOSPHATE For the Tired Brain From over-exertion. Try It WHIT THE EVERETT PIANO la So Fopnlar Everett Clab Almost Complete. The list of members for the second series, of the Everett piano clubs, is filling up at a wonderful rate, and the manager expects to commence delivering the pianos to tbis club in a very few weeks.

The system is now pretty well understood, and oners so many Inducements in low prices and accommodating terms of that applications ior membership are pouring in trom all points.
