The Zinc Industry.

nv fAihN
The following visws of an expert
aud recognized authority will interest
lola people as lola has linked her for
fumes with zinc, both in mining and
smelling.
Washington, ID. c., April 30-Dr.
David Il. Day, the mineral expert of
the government, shook his head today
when he was asked il he thought the
present unprecedented prices for zinc
ore In the Missouri Kansas district
would continue. He said he didn't
believe that SIS ton for ore would be
paid any considerable time. Such an
advance seemed to him inconsistent
with the natural supply and demand.
II must he due to fictitious influences,
such as com binatiOns among the ore
producers, or undue competition of
smelling interest.
He points out that conditions indi-
cate permanent degree of prosperity
for the zinc industry, which it has
never before known.
VIC HAY uul Htll lpl lJD u lOAl NblJ
long, but it wAl not go back one-third
of that. 1t is more likely to range be-
tween $40 and $40 ton. Metallic zinc
the product ready for the various in
dustries to which it is applied, now
sells in the market at 81 and 50 a
pound. Three years ago it was sold
at one-half that. Even at the greatly
increased value, there is no surplus
accumlsting. A heavy dealer in New
York recently received an order for
$500 tons of zinc at the market quota
tions. He gathered in all of the stock
on hand was obliged to stop at 1850
tons.
While the Missouri Kansas district
grows in relative importance, the uses
ofzinc enlarge. The zinc industry is
expanding. 1t calls for greater guam
titles of the product. Manufacturer
of galvanized iron work are using
qnore zinc than ever. In Europe shee
zinc ia taking the place of corrugated
iron for roofing and siding of build
Ings. The zinc sheeting stands tn
weather. The brass founders emplo!
zinc extensively in brass alloys. TIT
spread of Geographic, telephone ant
general electrical service means in
creasing consumption of sheet zinc il
batteries. The expansion of the Yin
industry is one of the most notabl
signs Of the times

RAILROAD RUNBL|NG.
Santa Fe RumOrs Elsewhere
Concerning lola, st.
Louis and Ne
vada. Mo.

Readers of the REGISTER will re-
member that there has been some
talk at this end Of the line of pro-
posed railroad to be built by the
santa Fe to connect the southern
Kansas with ST. Louis running
through the gas and znc territory.
The following from the Nevada Post
seems to be piece off the same
theory:
"How would the people of Nevada
like another railroad?" said rail-
road man to a Post reporte to-day.
GA man way up in railroad circles
and in position to know something
of the manipulatious Oh the railroad
checker board was IN the city a few
days ago and said that Nevada lie
very liable to secure another railroad
this season.
Said this man, "the santa Fe rail-
road is apt to build here this season
from lola, Kans. They want a more
direct line to st. LOUIS, from the
smelling districts, the gas districts
and the oil districts Of Kansas. When
the extention is made it will run from
lola, here and from here to st. Louis,
traversing a country rich in resources
that has no railroads.
"This would be a master stroke on
the part Of the Santa te and is exact
~ what will occur in my opinion, in
the near future"
j. j. Frey is the general manager
of the Santa Fe at present He built
Nevada's new depot and was, at the
time General superintendent of the
Katy. He is perfectly familiar with
this country and the urgent needs of
the new line to It. Louis and no
doubt his influence would bring
about the building OF the santa lie
through this place to st. Louis.

A DREADFUL ACCIDENT.
Ephraim Vancil Accidentally Shoots
Himself in the Foot. lnflicting
a Painful and Dangerous
Wound.

Ephraim Vancil, whose shoe shop
is on Walnut street, was spending
Sunday at the home of his mother,
west of the river, as Ia his custom.
In the afternoon he noticed rabbit
in the yard, and thinking that the
broth from IL might tempt the appe-
tite OF his sister who has been i'll, he
took q shot gun and started after it..
The rabbit evaded him and he re-
turned to the house. The step from
the ground to the threshold IL quite a
high one and in making the effort
necessary to enter, in some way that
he cannot explain, the gun was dis
charged, the entire charge of number
three shot passing through the middle
OF his left foot at the instep, entering
at the left side and passing out at the
right, burning end tearing a hole
more than two inches in diameter.
Physicians were at once sent for and
Drs. Fulton and Mcdowell responded.
Assisted by DR.. Mcdowell DR.. Fulton
dressed the wound a. well a. posi-.
BILE, takiug away the shattered bones
and the burnt flesh. The doctor has
faint hope that the foot may be
saved, but thinks very likely at least
half of it may have to be amputated
1t is dreadful wound and Mr.
Vancil has the sympathy of all his
friends.
Fortunately Mr.. Nancil was
carrying an accident policy which
will pay him $50 week for six
months if his disability should last
that long. He also has policy in the
knights of the Maccabees which viii
pay him $4,000 in case he ia totally
disabled, or thousand dollars fol
the loss of his foot.
