NEW DREDGE
The Treadgold mining oper
ations on Dominion creek, Yu
kon Territory, are being pros
ecuted this season along sim
ilar Jinps to those of last year,
comprising thus far the wash?
ing of muck from the surface
at several places with hydraulic
giants, The water is being
taken from several gulches find
conveyed for miles in ditches.
The ground is being prepared
for operation with new type
machines, Uh.arles Pf J.)plgn(
superintendent for the com
pany on Dominion, who sever
al weeks ago visited England,
where the machines are being
constructed, says one of them
was to have left there before
the first of the month, and
should he there within a few
weeks. It is to be tukeu toj
Dominion and assembled ini
mediately on arrival. Each
machine will have a capacity of
about 10,800 cubic yards a day,
as much as' the largest dredge
in the Klondike c\an handle.
More exactly speaking the*
machine handles 450 cubic
meters an hour, and a cubic
meter is a little larger than a
cubic yard. They are known
as the Lubecker dredge and ex
cavaling machine. Only one is
coming at first so that if the
local conditions demand alter
ations of any detail they can be
made before the other machines
are forwarded. Mr. Dolan,
when in London this spring,
made a special trip to Liepsic.
Germany, and vicinity, where
he saw twenty-one of the nie
chines in operation. Some are
digging coal, some chalk, and
others gravel and other mater
ial.

Power of the Opium Habit.
In the American Magazine a former
newspaper man, who became a victim
of the opium habit and is now n con
vict in n penitentiary, writes a dramat
ic account of his experiences with the
drug. lie gives ns follows his idea of
the power of the habit;
“I do not believe that any man with
an opium or morphine habit of years’
standing can deny himself the drug if
it is within reach.
‘‘I do not believe that any man, no
matter what his previous character
may have beeu, can use opium contin
uously and not have the impulse to be
crooked. Hp may not be crooked, he
may lack the nerve or the necessity to
steal, but tho impulse will be there,
and if it ever becomes a question of
theft or a ‘habit’ he will thieve. This
is the history of every opium smoker I
have ever known."
Jh« Invention of the Panorama.
The panorama was invented by a
Scotchman named Robert Barker, who
obtained a license in London in 1787
and erected a rotunda on Leicester
square. He was associated with Rob

steam to boats. Thayer raised a ro

ramas, |n which b(s conquests were to
