MINING NOTES.

The Homestake of Dakota has Just
paid a dividend of 30. cents a share for
October. This company has never
missed paying dividends since it began.
Its total dividends paid to date amount
to Sc, 42l, 80.
The deepest mole in the earth says an

copper mine in the upper peninsula of

light of biologists and other scientists.

was e904. 6S1. The stamp mills treated
5tJ,5l1 tons OF ore. each stamp averag-
ing A. tons per "a hours. Number of
stamgs was 3, 500.
The largest amount of ore in sight on
record is that OF the Alaska Treadwell
mines, which is estimated to be 7,OO0.-
900 tons. When the contemplated ad-
dition to the working capacity of the
mine is completed it will have the lar
gest stamp mill in the world-viz., 300.
The next largest is in South Africa,
2S0 stamps. The ores of the Alaska
Treadwell are mined and milled for
81 per ton.
The Supreme Court has settled a
question of interest to mining men, hav-
ing decided that where parties work
ing a mine under a lease or working
bond have erected a mill and other i'm
proyements, and have not stipulated
that they can remove same if work is
abandoned, such improvements revert
to the owner of the mine and cannot be
removed.

MOTHER MCKINLEY SICK.
SRTIkEN WITH PARALYSIS.
The President at her Bedside.

Mrs. Nancy Allison Mckinley, moth
er Of the President, was stricken with
paralysis at her home in Canton on
Thursday morning OF last week. As
she is So years of age, her recovery was
despaired of from the first. The Pres
ident was summoned to her bedside,
where he remained until Saturday,
when his official duties required his re-
turn to the Capitol, to receive the com
mittee from Congress on Monday. I'm
mediately after his departure, Mrs.
Mckinley received a second stroke,
since which she has been rarely con-
scious. She recognized the President
when he entered the room on his re-
turn from Washington Tuesday, but
soon afterwards relapsed into uncon
seriousness from which she had not re-
covered Wednesday morning and her
death is hourly expected.
The devotion of VIM. Mckinley to
his aged mother in this hour of trial
and grief cannot fail to increase our re-
spect for him as a man. However we
may differ with him in politics. All
must admit that he is indeed one OF
Americas w noblemen.

HAMILTON NOTES

Wagons are out of date in Hamilton,
and sleighs have taken their place.
The pupils of the White River dis
trict should be forewarned that their
next teacher, Mr.. Walker, is mining on
White Pine for a couple of weeks to
harden up his muscle before taking
charge of the school.
Dick Willis, who is lately out of bed
from his sever attack of pleurisy, will
spend the winter ON Bull Creek where
the climatic conditions will not be SO
effective upon his weak lungs.
H. A. Matson, of Washington State,
is visiting his brother, VIM. Watson.
The last time they saw each other was
before either left Sweden, twenty-nine
years ago. He intends spending the
winter in Hamilton.
Bill Matson has taken his big team
off the road for the winter. BY reason
of the roughness of the road, it was al
most impossible to make the last trip,
which cost him a horse. Mr.. Matson
is unfortunate in loss of horses as this
is the fourth one this summer. He has
also stopped his pack train which has
been packing the ore from Rocco's
mine-the Homestake.
Roy Mathewson, who was accom-
paning his father with his shipment of
cattle east, fell from the top OF one OF
the cattle cars and narrowly escaped
death. He was walking ahead carry
ing a lantern when he made the un-
fortunate step off the car, which caused
him to fall fourteen feet. While it is
thought that no internal injuries were
sustained, his ankles were somewhat
shattered, one of which had to be placed
in a plaster of Paris cast. 1t will prob
ably be a long time before he can walk
without the aid Of crutohes,

The Missouri Pacific Railroad COM
pany has just granted its %, 600 en-
ployees a l0-per-cent increase In pay,
and Mr.. George Gould is receiving
much credit for the act. He deserves
it, TOO. il it is a voluntary move on his
part. We rather suspect that it is but
fulfilling a contract made when a re-
duction was made in the depth of the
depression. But even if this is true,
the act is most praiseworthy. for a 10
percent advance must mean a very
large monthly sum, and as a rule great
corporations shrink from that kind Of
