A Puzzle for Jersey Assessors.
NEWARK. N. J., Sept. 25--The
Morris county assessors have just ren
dered a cuiious report. It shows that
Morris county has gained 171 acres in a
year and that various townships have
increased snd decreased in a most tin
accountable manner. Washington town
ship has shrunk in size 41 acres, Cha
tham 76 acres,Pequanac 177 acres and
Randolph township is 500 acres Bmaller
than it was by the report of the asses
sors last year, Other townships show
large gains, Roxbury alone having ex
panded to the tune of 494 acres. At
this rate Roxbury will soon consume
all of Randolph township. It is hard
to understand how these changes should
hare come about and the assessors
themselves are sorely puzzled.

EXILE LIFE IN SIBERIA.
The Story of Two Nihilists Who Es
caped.
LONDON, Sept. 22.—A Russian po
litical exile, who recently made his es
cape from Siberia, has been entertain
ing a select coterie of Bohemians in
London for some weeks by the relation
of bis adventurous escape from bis
Siberian jailers and the hardships he
endured in his attempt to regain his
liberty. He is a man of about middle
age, of pleasing appearance, and spetks
English as well as most educated Rus
sians do. He gives his name a* Baker,
having assumed this name since he
rescbel London. T. e story of his es
cape is most thrilling, and the Rraphi c
manner in which he relates his varied
adveotutes never fails to claim the un
divided attention of his listeners.
He, with numerous companions, was
sent into exile early in 1831. for impli
cation in some discovered plot against
the Czu's life, and was immured with
in one of Siberia's interior villages.sur
rounded by vast tracts of ice and snow.
Here the prisoners were left in the
keeping of a few guatds, but they were
prevented from escaping far more ef
fectually by the fear of becoming the
prey of the fierce wolves whose baying
at night could be distinctly heatd on all
sides of the village.
The >dea of hope and escape never
leaves the exile's mii.d, says Raker.and
his one sbsoibing thought bow to reach
freedom, and the hope of accomplish
ing this remains with them until death.
The exiles were obliged to go into the
forests near by aDd cut what wood they
used, and it was by this very means
that Baker succeeded in eluding the
vigilance of the guaids, and in leaving
the village. Oae day while he and a
companion were stealing their supply
of wood they accidentally came across
a small opening, concealed by a ever
green tree which led to be a good sized
cave. Here was a means of cecape.
Without giving the details which Bak
er relates so freely, it is enough to say
that the two exiles kept the matter
secret, and removed to the cave dav by
day such of the provisions they could
spare without exciting attention.
When the cave was stocked with food
enough to last some time, if frugally
used, the men prepared to take their
departure, and begin the hard and
doubtful struggle for liberty. So one
day they went out for wood but did uot
return. Ot couise search was made
for them and the Country scoured ; but
having thrown the pursuers off the
track, the exiles liyed securely for near
ly two weeks within sight of their re
cent place of confinement.
At the end of that time tliev came
oat of their hiding place and began a
jonrney full of hair breadth escapes and
shocking sufferings. After innumera
bledaugers from wolves,from Cossacks,
from fret zing and starvation, they
finally reached civ ilzathn, but Baker's
companion died soon after their escape
from the effects of the terrible ex
posure he had endured.
Baker says there is an organized
movement on foot among nihilists to
effect the escape of a number of prom
inent political exiles, ai d the arrange
ments for the accomplishment or the
plan are most extensive. Nihilists in all
parts of the worldhave contributed tot be
fund uesessary to carry out the design,
which will soon be pat into operation.

K ROM TIIK NEW YORK "STAIL" AUGUST
27rti, ISS7.
The mines of the Tortilita Gold aud
Silver Mining Company ot No. 57
Broadway, New York,have become the
most favorably known properly of this
class in America. Their great value
lias Imeii demonstrated by new and con
tinuous discoveries of vast bodies of
rich ore HS the work goes on, and inves
tors in the shares of the company are
fioin all sections and all classes in the
count rv.
The Tort ilit as are developed, proven
und walking mines. The shares arc in
absolute security, as they are based on
property worth many times what lliey
call for. Shares are for sale in any
sized lots from one share to ten thous
and. There is no better or safer invest
ment.
Receipts for $150,000 iu bullion taken
out of the mines during their dsyelop
ment can be seen at the company's of
fice.
The demand for the shares is increas
ing daily. They are the favorite invest
ment eveiywhere with all. The Tor
tilita shares are not affected by Wall
street panics. They are an investment
security pure and simple.
1 lie Tortilitns have lately been ex
amined and rei<orted upon favorably by
the Tucson (Ariz.) Star , published
within sight of the mines; the Florence
(Ariz.) Enterprise and the Hartford
Post. These and other leading journals
have published articles pronounciugithe
mines worth many times more than
tliey are capitalized for.
The sale of the stock is being con
ducted upon a different plan from that
generally employed, the management
offering the shares direct for invest
ment in any sized lots instead of mak
ing it a stock speculation.

WHAT THE HARTEORI "roST" SA T 3.
Just now the newspapers haye a great
deal to say respecting a wonderful
group of twelve gold and silver mines
in southern Arizona in the Owl's Head
mining district, known as the Tortilita
mines. As the readers of the Post are
certain to be interested in these remark
able mines, which for some time to
some are likely to lie the centre of at
traction for i lives to s in mining stock,
we take pleasure in presenting also
facts gained from reliable sonnet in
furtherance of the Post's constant pur
pose to place la-fore its renders in avail
able lorm every gr.od thing which the
market affords.
TIIE GREAT TORTILITA.
A well-known gentleman from the
East, who is an expert in mining enter
prises,for his own persona! gratification
made an examination of the Tortilita
mines last month,and we are fortunate
ly able to print his report here. We
give his report in his own words :
••On arriving at the camp I inquired
for the Superintendent of the mines,
Mr. D. T. Elmore. I found Mr. El
more a gentleman of about 50 years of
age. a typical western man.well bronzed
with the hot suns of this semi-tropical
climate and the ex|Kisure resulting from
thirty years' active mining life on the
Facific coast."
THE SUPERINTENDENT'S STATEMENT.
In reply to a question Mr. Elmore
said : "I came here to take charge of
this property three years ago. We have
subsequently added to it by purchase
and otherwise until we control all the
valuable rights m this district. 1 have
seen ail the best mines in America, and
woiked in them,und I tell you here aud
now that the Tortilitas are the greatest
and best of their class on the American
continent."
EXPLORING THE MINES
After ,a good night's rest I began a
survey of the field with Mr. Elmore.
We droye a mile and a half northerly to
the By Chance Mine, where we tound
the men at work in four places. In
shaft A, which is a distance of 190 feet
from the south center end of the claim,
ore is uncovered for a distance cf sev
eral hundred feet, and in this distance,
varying from 50 to 100 feet apart, are
four other o(ienings running parallel.
We went down an incline for thirty
feet, and there a great wall of ore and a
true fissure vein was disclosed to me.
From this point I went through a tun
nel and was shown large ho ties of ore
altove me. We then returned and went
down fifty feet further and there meas
ured a breast of ore forty-two and a half
feet wide, from which I took samples
to the mill and saw worked, yielding an
average of SSO per ton. In three places
on this yein below the water ore has
been uncovered, and the vein shown to
be four feet wide and of unknown
length and depth. This demonstrates
the great value of this property, for, as
all raining men know, this concentra
tion below the water level proves the
permanency and value of a mine. The
ore changes in character and becomes
licher. I could see thousands of tons
of ore in sight that only needs sufficient
mill capacity to produce unlimited
qualities of bullion. I saw the ore ex
tracted from the earth, brought to the
surface and turned into bullion under
my own eyes.
OPINION OF TIIK KOIIKMAN.
Ilere I encountered the foreman un
der Mr. Elmore, an old, xriuled, storm
beaten, honest-visaged miner, named
Mc(lovert). Said he :
"I have worked ou the Comstocks, 1
have been in the Silver King and other
greut mines. I have followed Ihis bus
iness all my life. This is the richest
projH'rty for its depth and development
that I have ever seen, and you can hold
me responsible for this statement —the
Tortllilas will prove the Usl mines ev
er discovered on the Pacific slope. This
one mine which 1 uni now woikinu in
is wotth mote than a million dollars it
self."
Wo then proceeded to the surface,
and were taken to llio almde of McGoy.
era and shown lite Jesse llenton Ulint,
lite sister property to the By X'hance,
1,400 feet further north. This mine is
considered in this section of the coun
try eytn a better property than the Hy
Chance, great as it is, on account ot
the large amount of ore that has been
extracted and the development that has
been done upon it. The*ore is extreme.
Iv rich, and there is a great deal of na
tive silver. The pay stleak is two and
a half feet wide. This mine has a rep
utation second to none in thin section
of the country, and its product has
been extraordinary.
After takiiig dinner at Mr. Elmore's,
we drove a mile and a half southerly
and examined the Red Peach, the Lazy
Sleeper and the Desert mines. The two
former are good mines. The Desert
has a peculiar formation, from which
$36,000 has been taken out, with two
shafts of 100 to 160 feet.aud the smooth
est kind of walls. There is an utdimit
td quantity of proOtable ore in sight
and many believe this mine itself is
worth the capital of the company. The
lied Peach has probably a hundred tons
of ore on its dump, with four shafts
varying from sixty to a hundred feet
deep.
The lazy Sleeper, too, has a great
deal ol development upon it.
The Golden Eagle is a gold mine of
fine promise, from which 1 saw certifi
cates of large yields.
WONDERFUL FIGUItES.
Asked what improvements were con
templated, Mr. Elmore said; "We can
easily supply three twenty-stamp mills
for an indelinite period on these prop
erties. They would work ISO tons of
ore per day, at an average of SSO per
ton. At a low estimate this would be
$9,000 per day.
* With the proper machinery this can
be worked at an expense of $lO per lon.
which wml4 pet Jay, leaving
net per day $7,200, or for thirty days
$216,000, or for a year $2,592,000, which
will be over two and a half times our
capital stock each year ; but at first we
shall start with a twenty-stamp mill,
which should give us SNOO.OOO per year
net, or SO per cent, per annum on our
capital stock. lam now bending every
effort toward attaining these results.
We are negotiating now for hoisting
works and a forty-stamp mill, and 1
hope soon to obtain them. Meanwhile
we shall continue to run our little 11 ve
stainp mill, and develop and improve
the property all in our (Miwer. 1 know
of no investment in America that wi'l
pay as well as the shares of our compa
ny."
WORTH MANY MILLIONS.
After a week's tune spent at the
mines in daily examination of the work
in seeing assays made, watching the
flattery samples and seeing the ore re
torting and running into bullion and
stam|ied, and leading certificates of
$150,000 for bullion shipped to the
Bank of California in the last two
years.aud seeing one bar of 2.400 ounces
sent forward while I was there, I left
impressed with the fact that the Tortil
ita deserved the confidence of the pub
lic. and that the management in New
York had far undorestimated its value
in their statements. 1 found the prop
erty worth anywhere from $100,000,000
to $50,000,000, and possibly $10,000,000,
as the Comstocks have proven to be,
and have made thousands of men rich.
I found the Tortilita not only a great
propei tv, but one that is managed in
the best way. It has a jewel in Mr.
Elmore, the superintendent, who is as
honest n9 he is able, the essential thing
that interests the stockholders after the
value of the property.
I feel assured that in the near future
the Tortilita mining camp will become
the largest on the Pacific coast with the
necessary maciiinery for working the
mines.
Driving back to Tucson I remained
there a short time, and found the Tor
tilita exciting more attention than any
other mining property in the Territory,
and there are some rich ones there. For
example, the Silver King, not far dis
tant , has paid $2,000,000 (S2O per share)
in dividends from one mine alone, while
the Tortilita company has twelve. The
Raymat and Vikol, in another direc
tion. have turned out millions, and
made their owners rich, as have the re
nowned Tomlwtor.es and Quijotoa.
The Tortilitas are on the tongue of ev
erybody, and Mr. Elmore is looked for
with bullion every month as regularly
as the month comes round.
TIIF. MANAGEMENT.
Before any fnrthei reference is made
to the raining properties briefly de
scribed aliove, it will lie proper to say
something about the personnel of the
company into whose possession these
mines ana their accessories have come;
for the readers of the Post are always
inquisitive concerning new acquaint
ances. The Tortilita Gold and Silver
Mining Company has for its president
Mr. Joseph 11. Reall, president also of
the American Agricultural and Dairy
Association, and well-known among
the farmers of America, an experienced
business man. well-versed in financial
matters, whose name is prominently
mentioned for Vice-President of the
United States, with Cleveland, as the
representative of the agricultural inter
ests: and Rodman M. Price, Jr., the
secretary, is a well-known mining and
civil engineer, who has just returned
from an eight years' residence in Ari
zona, where he selected the Tortilitas
as the best mines in the Territory. He
is a worthy son of his distinguished
father, ex-Goyernor Price.
THE PROPERTY SELF-SUSTAINING.
This property, unlike most mining
enterprises inviting capital, is a pro
ducing and self-sustaining one, with a
5 stamp mill in good order, which lias
been running for nearly three years
continually; the mill has just been fur
nished with newcains, dies and tappets,
which puis the plant reality In as good
order us when b..ilt; nine tons of ore
are worked i>er day, while with a 20-
sltiiup mill to be erected forty tons can
lie worked at but slight additional ex
pense, and over $5,000 per day earned.
WHAT PUKSIDKN'I UK ALL SAYS.
('resident Reall, iu a recent inter
view. piloted in the Boston Globe. said:
"When the former owners of the
Torlihtas came to ma with their prop,
eities, recommended by some or the
IR'HI men iu America for their |>ersonal
winth, they asked me to accept the
presidency of the company and raise
capital to extend their work. I inves
tigated the enterprise thoroughly, only
to tiud that her representations were
far beneath what the facts would bear, i
and I aiu getting daily proofs of tiie
greater value of the property. When I 1
took hold of the enterprise I,determined j
to apply tlie business principles to it (
which I had learned by twenty years'
active experience. I realized the preju
dices that had to he met aud theditli
ctnties which had to he overcome. 1
determined to handle mining stock the
same as any regular commodity—-that
is. to sell it on its merits for what it
was worth. The put lie have recognized
the value of the enterprise far beyond
my expectations, and have shown their
confidence in it to a greaterextent than
was ever shown before. I found ilives
torn ready for an enterprise conducted
on sound business principles, and they
will reap their reward. Ido not know
whether the stock will pay $1 or $2 per
share in dividends, but I do know it is
cheap at $2, the present price, and
mauy believe it will eventually sell for
ten times that figure. Three of the
mines are now being operated, and
either of them are demonstrated to be
exceptionally rich in ore and worth far
more thau the entire capital stock of
the couqiany, not countiug the other
mines."
The final and clinching evidence in
regard to these properties is found in
the following from the Tucson Star,
published near the mines, whose editor,
L. C. Hughes, is a leading mining ex
pert and personally ramiliar with the
subject concerning which he writes,
lie says:
"One of the best evidences of the fu
ture of these mines is the fact that
from the beginning the output of buil
iiou has paiu for every dollar's worth
of development. Not a dollar expend
ed which has not come out of tht
mines. And this means much, for the
mines have not been operated so much
to take out ore as to ascertain from
prospecting the true merit of the
mines. However, manv thousands of
dollars were expended in dead work in
sinking prus|ecl shafts, drifting, tim
bering und tunneling to loam the ex
tent, richness and permanency of the
ore lodes. These facts haye been wuii |
determined. iNirtng tiiew develop- i
incuts nearly $175,000 of bullion has
been produced by these mines and uu
der adverse conditions. A twenty or
forty-stamp mill is what the district
needs. With the present management
and such a mill the Tortilita mining
district would be the largest bullion
producer in Arizona. The are is there.
The water and wood are there in abun
dance. Everything is favorable to the
working of these mines and the produc
tion of bullion.
SURROUNDED WITH ALL THE CONDI
TIONS FOR SUCCESS.
The fact is that Tortilita mines are
surrounded with all the conditions
necessary to a prosperous mining camp.
Add to this the fact that the manage
ment is under D. T. Elmore, an experi
enced mining aud mill man of twenty
years in tiie mines and mills of the Pa
cific slope, especially in the mines of
Nevada. Thus the company is assured
against the blunders and incompetency
of an inexperienced management,which
has been the cause of so many mining
failures all over the country. Mr. El
more kuows every detail necessary to
the successful management of a mining
property, which insures the best results
from these mines.
Regularly every month a shipment ot
silver bullion has been made from these
mines through the Tucson bankers to
San Francisco. It is well-known that
a large amount of development and
prospecting has been going on,with the
product of the mines paving all expen
ses. and the credit of the company the
very best.
This groop of mines contains enough
of ricli mineral to make a flourishing
bullion camp for many years to come,
witli splendid returns to the fortunate
owners ot the magni flcent property.

A representative of the Enterprise
visited the Owl Heads this week and
made a thorough examination of the
mines and the camp. The bullion pro

The increase in the capacity of the

CONCLUSION.
The shares of I lie Tortilita Company
are being taken all oyer the country for
investment by bankers, merchants,
farmers, mechanics aud laboring men
and women. They can be bought now
by private subscription .and those wish
ing to purchase will do well to send in
their orders at once, as the books will
soon close preparatory to calling the
stock OP the board. The shares can
now be 'nought at par in any sized lots
from one share to 5,000 direst from the
company's office, No. 57 Broadway,
New York.
It is believed that the Tortilita is oue
of the soundest and best mining enter
prises vet brought to the attention of
the public, and that those who invest in
it will reap handsome returns. They
are at least sure of a safe investment
and good dividends.
There is but a portion of the stock
for sale, and that is for the purpose of
putting up the additioual machinery re

Starved Into a Verdict.
Jurymen arc hotter off in these times
than in the good old days,when it was

Natural History aud a Story.
The horse's hoof is strong enough to
resist the hardest road and yet is so
sensitive as to be an organ of touch.
The following narrative writteo by
John Bellows,a Quaker and the author
of a valuable French dictionary, proves
and illustrates this apparrently incred
ible fact. Friend Bellows says :
When my father was qnite a little
child lie frightened bts mother by run

house and tripping up exactly in front
of a team of horses drawing a heavy
wagon.
"As he fell, the leader horse set his
great hoof on the child's head, and his

"But no ! He used to say that all
his life afterwards he kept up distinct
remembrance of the soft and geotle
touch of the horse's hoot pressing him
to the ground 'like a sponge' and hold
ing him there until his mother relieved
him.
"The horse had pulled up In the
twinkling of an eye, and brought tiie

he seemed to know that the child was
safe lying still, and there he kept him.'
