(J AVE Til KM GOLD MIXES. Australia's Method of Caring for Her Unemployed. Ai Kiperimrnt That Proved to Be t.reat Siirrrwi in I'rovld i tic for Poor People Who Were Kntlrely IK-atitnte. An odd nw-ans of helping- the unom vel was devised by the povernment f Victoria, durinp last winter, wlien trade was duller ami distress more acute au.l jeneral than in very many years past. It consisted, says a eor-rc-potnU-nt of the New York Sun, in actually presenting fold mines to the unemployed workmen. Not only this, but transportation to the mines was furnished, and also tools to work it and provisions to last nntil it ltejan to pan out. There are scattered throuph the colony auriferous gullies and streams and old dijrinfrs that have been worked out, so far as adequate commercial returns are concerned, hut which may yet 1 made to yieid a liv ing to any one who will seek hard for it. The living is not pood enough to attract jrold si-rkers in pood times, but it a time like the past winter, when Lhousands of unemployed men, with Jc pendent and destitute families, milked the streets of Melbourne, plad to pet even crusts and crumbs, such a hvinp as the old dippinps afford was one to lie foupht for. The reason why men did not set out to obtain this Hv inp w as, of course, tteeause capital was needed to reach the dippinps and to work them. The department of mines send experts to the old mininp repions to ascertain where there would lie most likelihood of the unemployed workmen pettinpenouph gold to afford, a livinp. Some repions that would have yielded fair returns to experi enced miners were unsuited for the en deavors of the promiscuous workers, willinp but unskilled, who were sub sisting' on charity in .Melbourne. To To some of the better of these repions parties of unemployed were sent in charge. . of one or two experienced miners. Hut many places were found where unskilled men mipht pet ehouph polil from the creeks and rivers to af ford w hat would be to them, under the circumstances, a pood livinp. Alout three thousand men were sent out by the povernment to these old dippinps durinp the winter and most of them were accompanied by their families. Free railway passes were provided to the station nearest the place where they were to prospect, and, where possible, further transpor tation was also furnished. On arriv uip at the dippinps thirty shillings were piven to each man for the pur chase of provisions and supplies and also a few simple tools. Experienced miners were on hand to show them bow to pet to work, and remained in the repion so lonp as necessary. Twenty to fifty and a hundred families were located in some of the dippinps. Most of the districts selected for these settlements were alonp streams and here was eenerallv found land suitable for raisinp fruits and vepetables. The experiment proved a success. Almost all the people thus sent out have been makinp a fair livinp. Some have had to work hard with little returns and have needed assistance from the pov ernment. hut the preat majority have done really well. Some of the men have made an averape of from twenty to thirty shiilinps a week all the time they have Wn at the dippinps, which was sufficient to maintain their fami lies in eomtortablecircumstanees. Few there are who have not been able to make at least a livelihood. Some re turned to Melltourne and other cities to take up their old lines of work, but a preat many are remaining at the dip pinps. satisfied with their present con dition, ami doubtless in many cases hopinp to strike a rich, patch. The povernment also settled about eiphteen hundred men, most of them with families, on povernment land, under the provisions of an act recently passed for the formation of villape nettlements and homestead associa tions and communities. Thirtv-five Mich settlements were plotted out and unemployed men with their families placed on them, with the means of commencing; to obtain a livelihood from the products of the soil. The plan of most of these settlements was that of a cooperative company, and preat care w as exercised to apportion the unemployed amonp the thirty-five nettlements so that their individual ea pa I til it ies mipht be of the best ail van tape fr the common pood. The plan was something similar to that of the Ilirsch .settlements of exiled Russian Jews in Arper.tina. All these commu nities are reported to be doinp well, and in but few instances have settlers deserted them. The winter climate in Victoria is, of course, very mild, and in July, the coldest month, it is a rare thinp for the temperature to fall to f reezinp. Employment was also found for some fifteen hundred of Melbourne's unem ployed durinp the winter by the de partment of railways and the depart ment of public works. Altogether, though times were duller and distress more peneral and acute durinp last winter than in many years, it was in 110 way so apparent on the surface as in much lietter years. There were few processions of idle men throuph the city streets and few demonstrations of the unemployed, such as attracted uni versal attention to Australia the pre vious winter. PERSONALS.

United States IVnsion Apent Skin ner has discovered that there are many blus.iiiig- into marriage contracts with veterans who have passetl the three score mark. In fact, the eaptain ratlter t-uspect.s that the youn women who ehotse thei lo so because they have perfurmetl brave service for their coun try, aiul are now Iteinj'' rewarded by a comfortable jn-nsion. This Mate tf thing's, in the Pitts burgh tlistrict. at least, though not throughout the counfy, indicates that the payment of H-nsions will fur nish vattiable assistance to many liand--Mtme wi.lows for at least half a century to come. The veterans will not survive, of course, but many a youn willow will mourn till their departure ami draw their pensions until they tlie of old aire, according to the t'ittsburg-h L-cader. Airent Skinner has just completed liisrctort for the quarter ending Jan uary 4, anil also a report for the month of January. The report for the quar shows that 44. .V.iS pensioners were paid, the amount distj'rscd lieinp: ?I..V. s"t4."!S.

Skinner, 'but the number must be ve.y consid era hie and will cause the tension roll to remain larg-e for many years to come." 'mt inning, the penial aprent de scribed a case tf one of the you n wid ows from a ticiphl-orinp town who he had learned was married on January 4. n.. ial.lv iiniueiliatt'ly after iettino; her tjuartcr's (tension.

From the lauphinp manner in which ("apt. Skinner told this story, it is evi dent the happy ex-widow would not have Wen prndped her little dowry from Uncle Sam had she announced her intention to marry immediately on receivinp it. The captain did not say so, but it is probable the povernment will solve the question of increase in the pension roils throuph younp widows of old sol diers by encoiirakTinp them to imitate the example of the practical lady who ffot married on pension day.
