The H. D. Bibby Co, & for i them through that | | GOLD, GOLD, GOLD, 5 ------ Hammond Thinks Witwatersrand Good For £600,000,000. i The Engineering Magazine with an article on "The Transvaal | Mimes" hy John Hays Hammond, who, whatever his Jamesonian record tay be, is one of the worki's first ex- pert in miniog. Mr. Hammond's fig ures are esicwlated almost to stagger Chimanity. Think of a ten mile strip i of reef capable of yielding £600,000, WO worth of gold? Mr. Hammond does not say positively that it will, but only that geological investiga tious leave that estimate highly prob- able. And that ten mile strip is only 8 fraction of the gold-bearing area of the Transvaal. Ar this rate gold shouk! some day become ax cheap as copper. Mr. Hammond gives an ac count of the three mining regions of the colony--the Witwatersrand region, of which Johannesburg ix the capital; Lydenburg and De Raap. The first named dwarfs the other two. The Witwatersrand gold was discovered in 1583, several yesrs after gold was found in Lydenburg and De Kaap. In IS57 the Witwatersrand miners pro luced © 22.000 ounces. . In the nine months preceding the outbreak of war the output came to 14,005 326 ounces, worth, about fourteen and a half nil don pounds. The Witwatersrand com panies were, in other words, produc ing. rather more than a quarter of the entire. gold yiekl of the world. Mr. Hammond believes that within the next three or four years the rand may turn out twenty-five millions worth. The advance will Le owing partly to the ingrease of Arushing machinery, "but more especially to the starting of many of the deep-lovel properties which will then reach the producing stage." Talking of 'deep levels, the engibedrs are prepared to work ver tically in thd Rand to a depth of &, 000 feet. The cost would be great, but, says Mr, Hammond, the profit would be greater. "It is estimated that for every® mile in. length along the course of the reels, down to a ver. tical depth of 1.000 feet for the dip of these reefs, gold to the value of bout ten millions will be extracted." How long will 'the gold yield of the Rand last ? Me, Hammond thinks the mining in the Rand will cease to be proltable within twenty-five years. Shortly before the war, the Rand mines' employed nearly ten thousand whites on an average monthly wage of £26, and 88.627 natives on an gver age of £2 Us. 0d. Most of the white workmen are British, but many of the important members of technical staffs are American. © "The mine and mill foremen are usually sither Americans, or British subjects, who have had mining experience in America." Mr Hammond says nothing on the point --ol course, he woukl not--hut this overwhelming wealth, should be made to pay its liberal share of costs for the war and for the measures which must be taken to restock and regene- rate South Africa. opens ---- Kingston And Ottawa.

The ladies of the In Home committee have under taken many successful entertaimntnents, hut none on so elaborate a scale as the "Carnival of Musical Romances.' Over three hundred young people of Kingston will take part ip the Carpi val, and for this they are being most admirably trained hy Prof. Ago. stimi and his two assistants, Mr. Lyn wood and Mr. Harding. Those three artists (for that they are artists none can doubt after seeing one of the re hearsals) trained the actors for this carnival in Toronto, Hamilton, apd Ottawa. The carnival' is arranged by Prof. Agostini and is an adaptation from sacred, romantic and popular music. costunes Aare very pretty, (and gre + by the ' n act i director Imposing in y Worshippers of Ancient Rome," faki part in which are Vesta, the Goddess of fire, the high priestess, priest, peolytes of the temple, nuns, monks, choristers. The choruses in this uct ave from well known sacred songs and worthy of mention i the serious way in which the conductor conducts the practices of this act. There is no irreverance for the whole story is explained and the smallest chorister reg! izes that this is an act where frivoli- ty is Lad form. But there are light, jolly scenes too. Thery is the Bohemian camp, and the band of gypsies are a merry, graceful throng, all the gypsy girls are pretty, and their costumes en- hance their beauty, but the gypsy queen, Miss Nan Paterson, outshines them all in grace of movement when she dances alone There is a sceme from "Carmen" that is very attractive, all the actors is being good soloists. Mrs, Martin takes | the part of Carmen. The soxtette is a catchy number , too, and so is Sly Cigarette. As for the children's songs and dances, they are pretty as they cap be, IL is a great undertaking to train so many amateurs, but the dir ector asserts that when he is through | with the practices the entertainment will be ane that will be worthy of professionals. Certainly nothing on so elaborate gu seale has ever before been attempted hore, The opern house should be crowded each night. for the | wriormance will be well worth the rice. #8 8 a The steamer New York leaves Fol ger's wharf at 8 o'clock, on Tuesday evening, July 22nd, for a trip down the river.

The directors of the hospital hope to start the new build- ing this fall, and the nurses' alumnge guaranteed $2,000. They have already raised $7,500, and hope to clear the balance bv this moonlight excursion. There is to he a band oi board and refreshments will be served by a bevy of uniformed nurses.

Miss Mamie Garrett entertained up' wards of fifty of ber juvenile friends yesterday afternoon at. "Kirkstall Lodge," Dr. Garreit's summer home, on' the river shore.

The afternoon was per: fect ~the first really summer like day of the seawon, amd there was nothing to mar the pleasure of the ai fresco affpir. AH sorts of games were play- ol by the voung people, and the boys went in for a swim in the inviting waters. Then came tea time and the hungry young guests gathered to gether on the lawn where the table was bountifully spread with good things that tasted especially good out of doors at thu clgse of this jolly af ternoon. The drive home was a fit ting close to the pleasant picnic and as the vans passed through the streets many townspeople tirned to look af ter the party of young merry -makers who were singing and shouting to their heart's content, and full of the spirit of the country life which they bad enjoyed so thoroughly through the hospitality of Dr. and Mrs, Gar rett. Com Ree Six little people--four hovs and two girle--were solely responsible for a bright cutertainment at "Belleview," on Monday night, for the benefit of the hospital. The entrance fee was only. five cents, but the little pro- gramme was worthy of a larger sum. Besides a dialogue and two or three songs, there was a three act charade, "Farewell." A bunch of roses was offered as 'a prize to whoever in the audience should first guess the word. The prize was won by Mrs. McMaster. The young people who took part in the entertainment were Misses Molly Baunders and Rea Holmes, and Mas- ters. Leonard Birkett, Munro Grier, Curly Patterson and George St | Remy. . - . .
