We had one fellow. though, a chap
who is now earning a salary of $4,000
a year, while his father receives the
largest salary of any man in the Unit
ed States. who was too much for even
us. We had a society in which the
initiation ceremonies were something
frightful, including, among other
pleasing features, a coffin, in which the
initiate was buried That is, we put
him in 1t, and nailed on the lid (there
were air holes in 1T that he did not
know about, and then with ropes we
let him down through the floor to the
next floor, where we had a pile of
ashes, which we shoveled onto the cof-
fin in a way which was really blood
curdling to the man inside.

night, so full that he couldn't come 10

failed to find him, and the opportunity
passed. but not for long. About l
o'clock in the morning he was seen
Keeling upstairs to his room. and
thither we followed him. carrying the
coffin along. He was so full that he
didn't know anything, and by the time
we got into his room, after giving him
what we thought was time to get into
bed, he was sound asleep.
I'VE weren't very particular how
much noise we made, and, after knock
ing things around pretty lively we had
set the coffin upon some chairs, and
then lifted him out of bed and laid him
in II, putting in a blanket to make 1t
easier on him. Then we withdrew to
think over what he would think when
he walked up in the morning and found
where he was. 1 guess l must have
been more curious on the point than
the others, for as soon as / got up l
slipped over to his room to get a place
to watch him when he came to himself.
i didn't want to disturb him while l
was getting in hiding, so opened his
door very carefully, and poked my
head in, and the sight I beheld almost
paralyzed me-"
His hair turned white in a single
night" interrupted the reporter, with
more or less of horror.
Not in the slightest" continued~the
Cornell man. "He was sitting UP in
the coffin, as comfortable as you please
smoking a cigarette and reading
Sunday paper.
"Of course" he concluded, sit was on
us rather than on him, but he explain
ed that during the night he had horri-
BILE dreams of being put in a coffin and
buried, and he had some sort of an
idea that ne might be dead, but when
he woke up he tumbled TO the situation
at once. and knew that some OF the
gang would be in to see about IL. so he
sent out for a morning paper. kindled
a cigarette and was ready for visitors"

MILLIONS ARE IN SIGHT

Spokane Spolxesma n Review: The lie
Roi mine at Rossland has again broken
all previous records. 1t is certainly one
of the richest mines in this country,
and recent strikes place its possibilities
in the realm OF the fabulous. From
the bottom of the shaft 40 tons of ore
was shipped Tuesday that gave an av-
ertage return of $3.50 per ton. These
figures were returns from samples TAX
en from each sleigh load of ore as ri
lent the mine, and are approximately
the returns that will be received from
the smelter. In his report to the Spo
kane office the assayer expressed doubt
as to whether these returns, large as
they are, represented the full value of
the ore, for the reason that IL there
should be free gold in the ore, ii would
probably escape him. The explanation
of this is that before making assays the
ore is converted into a powder and put
through a fine sieve. Free gold being
maileable, will not break into fine pow
der. and IL there Is free gold in the ore

meShes.
This lot OF 40 tons of ore was taken
from near the hanging wall, and one
not well informed regarding the ore of
the mine would pronounce II inferior,
because 1t carries 50 large a proportion
of white quartz. In the lie Rof mine n
is the rock that carries the gold rather
than the iron.
The ore was taken at a depth of 4sO
feet. II is estimated by well Informed
mining men that I'm the Slope between
the 350-foot level and the bottom of the
shaft there is $4,000 tons of ore. If this
should average $50 per ton, II would

Solomon Luebcke walked into an adj
joining room, where the other MEM
bers of the family. Mortified at his deed,
had gathered and quietly awaited the
arrival of the officers.
At the police station Luebcke admit
ted killing Solomon, and in Justification
said that Solomon had come into the
room, where he was lying in bed I'M
dressed and tried to pick a fight with
him, striking him several times in the
face. After warning him. Luebcke, ac-
cording to his statement, reached be-
meath his pillow for his sheath-knife
and. as Solomon made for him again,
rose from his bed and stabbed him.
The police believe that the crime was
premeditated by Luebcke. for they were
told there was bad blood between him
and Solomon, who had been living in
the same house with Luebcke and his
wife and stepchildren for the past two
months. Three weeks ago. il Is said.
the two men ceased speaking to each
other. and the neighbors say there bave
been frequent rows between the men.
