He will not be recalled, as such ac-

intimation has been conveyed to him,
quite unofficially. of course. that the
work of the navy in the Philippines is
over so far as fleet movements are
concerned, and the minute he asks for
shore duty the request will be granted.

WANTS TO SELL HIS MOUNTAIN
Failing to Do That, General Ochoa VIII
Improve Mount Popoc stepeti.

The correspondent of the Chicago Rec
ord writing from the City OF Mexico says:
The owner of Mount Popocatapetl. Gem
eral Gaspar Sanchez Ochoa. is negotiating
with a. leading English sulphur firm.
through Henry l.. Taylor of London. for
the sale of the mountain for E50,0o0.
meanwhile General Ochoa is planning
scheme, which, at a cost of 500. 600 Mex
lean silver. will greatly simplify and
cheaper the extraction of sulphur. The
plan embraces "A tunnel 600 feet long from
the summit to the top of the sulphur de-
posits; a cable line from the tunnel to the
down the mountain, and cog railway
thence to the tracks OF the Interoceanic
railway. The cable line itself will have to
be l50Oo feet long. making IL the longest
aerial line in the world. A rope of cru
chile steel wire one inch in diameter and
enduring tensile strain of 200. 600 pounds
to the square inch will be used The
buckets are to weigh seventy pounds. with
a capacity of 200 pounds Thus 100 tons of
sulphur ore will be deliverable daily.
The Mexican official figures made in 1857
establish the height of Mount Popocata-
petl as Ls16 feet above level. The
crater bed is $500 feet above the City of
Mexico. Cortez, In 1923. first extracted
sulphur from this mountain for use In
making powder. The sulphur is found
senic. Forty years ago Ochoa acquired
the mountain and began the extraction of
sulphur. At present he is not operating
his reduction works but In one year he
extracted 1000, 900 pounds. The worlds
consumption of sulphur last year was TO-
100000 pounds. and the market price Is
now from $35 to $40 a ton.-E. C. Butler.

Ten Beau. for Every Girl In Idaho.

With the bachelors outnumbering the
maids In every state in the Union II ought
to be easy for the unmarried women to
secure partner anywhere. but the region
where bachelors are most in excess is. of
course, the most favorable to the spinster.
since the abundance of unmarried men
gives her n wider range of choice. From
a matrimonial point of view Idaho is the
best state of the Union. for there the
number of the bachelors is to that of the
maids as 1854 to 426. each unmarried
woman In Idaho. therefore, having ten or
eleven bachelors. not exactly at her beck.
but available as husband. From most
points of view the West is the Mecca of
the young unmarried woman, for not only
are there more unmarried men in the
western states, but living is more easily
made in the West than in the East. and
therefore the western men are more ad-
dlcted to ma matrimony.-Professor ID, X.
