Excerpt from What's Mine's Mine, Vol. 1 of 3 For, supposing my reader one of the company, let him rise from the well appointed table - its Silver, bright as the complex motions of butler's elbows can make it; its china, ornate though not elegant; its ham, huge, and neither too fat nor too lean; its game-pie, with nothing to be desired in composition, or in flavour natural or artificial - let him rise from these and go to the left of the two windows, for there are two opposite each other, the room having been enlarged.

Excerpt from What's Mine's Mine, Vol. 2 of 3 There was once a woman whose husband was well to do, but he died and left her, and then she sank into poverty. She did her best; but she had a large family, and work was hard to find, and hard to do when it was found, and hardly paid when it was done. Only hearts of grace can understand the struggles of the poor - with everything but God against them! But She trusted in God, and said whatever he pleased must be right, whether he sent it with his own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from What's Mine's Mine, Vol. 3 of 3 When Mercy was able to go down to the drawing-room, she found the evenings pass as never evenings passed before; and during the day, although her mother and Christina came Often to see her, she had time and quiet for thinking. And think she must; for she found herself in a region of human life so different from any she had hitherto entered, that in no other circum stances would she have been able to recog nize even its existence. Everything said or done in it seemed to acknowledge some. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Mine, Vol. 2 There is a very strong reason in the nature of mines and miners for many of the delays in properly defin ing a claim. Every part of a ledge is not equally rich. Ore occurs in seams, chimneys, or chutes, and as soon as a man struck it rich his first thought was usually to explore it until he could select and stake out the best three hundred feet. Nearly all of the early locators on the Comstock were trying to get the richest slice in the lode, and they kept away from the recorder's office; or if they entered a claim, they took care to leave it in such shape that it could be altered, like some of the Spanish land grants of California that were floated ten or fifteen miles, much to the subsequent profit of attorneys. Even when the metes and bounds were well defined the guileless miners could not always be de pended upon to leave them so. One of the pioneers mentions a mining suit in which the matter hinged upon the location of a stump that marked the corner. Judge and jury adjourned and went to look at the stump. It had been dug up bodily during the night and carried off, and the ground was so levelled that not the slightest clew remained. Each side accused the other, and the case was never decided. All the American mining camps have maintained in the case of quartz ledges the right to an inclined location - that is, the right to take a claim of definite size and follow it downward at any angle or angles, taking all the ore in the vein and in its legitimate branches. A miner, according to this idea, takes up a piece of ground simply for the lode, and goes wherever it goes. Spanish mining law, on the contrary, recog nises only the square location. According to the Span ish plan, as soon as a ledge passes beyond the boundary of a square piece of ground of given size it belongs to the man in whose tract it lies. One can easily see that the Spanish system must prevent much trouble and render the single-vein problem immaterial. In fact, it rules out of court nine tenths of all the cases that lead to lawsuits. Matters rapidly went from bad to worse on the Comstock until the most casual oh server would have seen a wild Walpurgis-night revel of conflicting claims of every Size, shape, and age tum bling over each other three and four deep. It is hardly surprising, for the Comstock was not the only vein on the side of Mount Davidson, nor even the most prominent one. The Virginia lode was nearly parallel, and other veins, too' many to name and hardly worth while digging up from the dust of forgotten records.

Excerpt from The Mine, Vol. 1 The picture of this life drawn by Mr. Shinn is of lasting as well as timely interest. He has not written to advocate any theory, nor to deal with any special issue.

Excerpt from The Mining Magazine, Vol. 1: September, 1909 It has been said that Britons take their pleasures sadly; it is more obviously true that they take their holidays religiously. Therefore, at this season the City lacks the presence of the energetic spirits who are at the seaside or on the moors, renewing their youth in preparation for the winter campaign. Thus there is a lull in the mining market, which, however, is in a decidedly healthy condition. In the early summer, as indicated by the calendar and not by the weather, there was sufficient speculative activity to warrant talk of a 'boom, ' especially in the Kaffir circus, where prices rose cheerfully, and in the American department, where the quotations for half-a-dozen celebrated mines reflected a renewal of interest on the part of the public. General financial and industrial conditions are healthy, so that a reasonable optimism prevails. As is indicated by the letter from our Johannesburg correspondent, the mining industry of the Rand is undoubtedly prospering, having passed successfully through the troublous period of labour unrest and political uncertainty. The production of gold continues to increase and is now at the rate of 7,125,000 ounces or 30,000,000 per annum. During July there was anxiety on account of the shrinkage of labour supply, owing to the customary return of many Kaffirs to their farms, but this apparent shortage was due more to the needs of an expanding industry than to any serious diminution in numbers. In July 1908 the Rand employed 149,000 Kaffirs and 19,000 Chinese; in January 1909, the natives numbered 169,500 and the Chinese 11,500, making 181,000. In June the natives had increased to 176,000 and the Chinese had dwindled to 5,500, leaving the total almost unchanged at 181,500. In 1906 the Chinese importation gave 53,000 labourers to the Rand, but this is now a story of the past; the remaining Chinese will soon be going. They saved the Rand pending the recruiting of natives, a process that has proceeded steadily, so that between January 1907 and June 1909, there has been a gain of 72,000 Kaffirs. It remains for the managers to increase the value of this industrial implement by training the natives to greater efficiency. Next to the labour factor comes the consolidation of companies whereby the costs of administration are being decreased by centralization of management. At the same time old mines are being strengthened by alliance with fresh claim-areas and large milling plants are assured of a continued supply of ore. One of the latest fusions is between the Geldenhuis Deep, Jumpers Deep, and Geldenhuis Estate; it is also announced that the Rose Deep and Glen Deep are to consolidate, while Rand Mines is to acquire Rand Mines Deep. The Crown Mines flotation marked the amalgamation of an important group and it is apparently a settled policy, especially with Wernher, Beit & Co., to induce economy by this process of reducing the expenses of maintenance and administration. Working costs on the Rand are now about 17s. per ton, a notable improvement on the average of 28s. per ton prevailing before the War. The general effect of the application of sound financial and expert metallurgical knowledge to mining in the Transvaal has been to place the industry on a peculiarly sound basis and to diminish the speculative aspect of ownership in Kaffir shares. Announcement of another 'banket' discovery is made from Rhodesia, this time at Abercorn in the Mazoe district, 60 miles northeast from Salisbury, in a region fairly well watered.
