Barton, Altoona. Ruby Hill Tunnel and
other mining properties situated on
Adams Hill and Prospect Mountain, with
The idea Of investing in and developing
some OF these well known producers.
After making q careful and critical ex-
animation with O. L. Broy, they expressed
themselves as being greatly pleased with
the evidences OF the large and valuable
mineral deposits in the mines. and IL is
more than probable that these gentlemen
will be here again shortly 70 take hold OF
some OF the properties Of our district n
commence active operations.
They represent heavy capitalists OF the
" Windy City" and are thorough business
men, whose interest In our mines may
lead to active and industrious prospecting
and development which has been for so
many years practically dormant. The
gentlemen left Friday morning for the
East, but will stop of ct Alpha for a short
examination Of their property at that

The Holly chieftain., 1899-12-01

From the Philadelphia Inquirer: The
Missouri decision that the insurance
company must pay the full value Of the
policy OF suicide unless it can show,
that self-murder was contemplated al
the time that the policy was taken out
will open up the question as to whether
the insurance OF lives encourages sui
eide. High officers in various compa-
nfes have from time to time argued
that 1t does not. but statistics would
seem to point to a different conclusion.
In 1883 the suicide rate OF insured was
l2.7 per 100000. while In 1898 1t had
risen to II per 100000 Where insur-
ance companies declare that they will
not contest any suicide claims they
may be putting a premium on self-de
struction. Some years ago, when the
accident insurance boom was at its
height in England. commission was
appointed to investigate the matter. 1t
found that in cases where the premium
on the loss Of an eye was greater than
FOR the loss OF leg the company max
Ing the offer had more-"eye claims" to
pay than anything else. Where the
right hand was rated at the highest
figure, more right hands than any
other portion OF the body were lost.
This matter Of self-mutilation for an
insurance reward was clearly demon
strated by the testimony secured by the
commission. II also brought to light
another Interesting fact The greatest
number OF accident cases were reported
from that class that is known as the
'genteel poor" AS the members OF
this class follow clerical or profession
al careers rather than mechanical or
arduous ones. the number OF accidents
among them. as compared with those
who follow hazardous businesses, was
remarkable. 1t was fairly well dem
onstrated that when they were hard up
for few pounds they would take out
an accident policy for the amount need
ed and go. to come home with a
crushed leg or hand as the case might
warrant. In the matter of suicide
the man who is in financial or other
trouble is far more apt to solve 1t by
ending his life, II his life insurance
will surely be paid to his heirs. than
he would II a reasonable doubt were
raised as to the legality OF the claims
Of his heirs to such a payment. The
insurance companies frequently pay
suicide claims. although they feel NOR
ally sure that there was fraud intended
when the policy was taken out, but
when they do this. rather than suffer
the odium that attaches to a disputed
claim. they encourage self-destruction

ENoLANp.s WOMEN.
Difdcuity of Obtaining Means of Earn
Ing = Living.

Dificulty of Obtaining Means of Earn
ing Living.
One fact which stood prominently
out in the statements made at the
annual meeting in London of the So
ciety for Promoting the Employment
of Women. because, perhaps, OF the
emphasis given it by the chairman, Sir
Owen Roberts, was that there were
100000 more women in this country
than men. says the London News.
Obviously. therefore. the difficulty Of
obtaining work for such of them as
had of necessity to earn their own liv-
ing was greater even than when males
had to be dealt with. And this was
increased by the comparative dificulty
hitherto experienced in providing the
necessary technical training for them.
On this point, however. Sir Owen Rob-
erts pointed out hopefully to the effort
now made by the county council in
establishing schools OF domestic econ
omy. The chairman also pleaded for
special consideration for gentlewomen
who had reached middle life without
having acquired skill in work OF
definite kind. these being the saddest
cases that come under the notice OF
the society. Lady Knightley Of Faws-
ley. who moved the adoption OF the
report which dealt with the work OF
the fortieth year of the society,
pointed out that the market for women
shorthand writers and typewriters was
overstocked, and suggested that women
should turn their attention to dairying
and the direction Of laundries.

subterr.nsan Lake

10 London. as to almost every large
city, the question OF water supply
has been serious problem. London
ers now see way to Rlve 1t. The
engineer of the county council has in
formed that body that underneath
London is an immense lake, In a chalk
basin $500 square miles in extent.
The annual rainfall that sinks to this
lake. 100 feet below the surface OF the
ground. amounts to $50 200, ,0O0, 900 gal
Ions. which would give daily yield Of
767.O0O.OO0 gallons. An artesian well
has already tapped the lake at Clap
ham, and it is pointed out that all that
is necessary to insure a water supply
Is to sink sufficient number of wells.
The wonder is that London should
have existed for more than 1000 years
and never discovered that the great
lake was beneath 1t.

OUR SCOTCH INDIANS.
Signs Of the Infusion of Blood from
Across Sea In Cherokee Veins.

Signs Of the Infusion of Blood from
Across Sea In Cherokee Veins.
ST. Louis Globe Democrat: Chero-
KEGS come well by their stubbornness,
their shrewdness and their love OF
controversy. AS Indians they had these
traits to begin with. As the result OF
a strong infusion OF Scotch blood they
added to ;he strength of the character
istics. IL is Scotch history that after
the battle OF Culloden many Scotchmen
left their native land rather than ac-
cept English sovereignty. 1t is Cher
oLee history that numbers OF these
sturdy Scots found homes and wives
with the Cherokee Nation before the
enforced migration OF the tribe from
Georgia to the Indian Territory. John
Ross was one OF these Scotch exiles
who accepted Cherokee citizenship. He
became 4 chief and was given the name
OF "Coo-is-coo-ee." When the nation
moved to the territory one OF the dis
ts.cts into which the reservation was
divided for government purposes was
named "Coo-is-coo-ee" Ross founded
4 family which became powerful in
Cherokee councils. He and his son were
frequent visitors 10 Washington and
had much TO do with the treaty max
Ing which gave to the nation the
strong legal position II holds In its
relation with the United States. A
descendant OF Ross, the Scotch exile,
Is one of the officers OF the nation to-
day. The Adairs are another infiuen-
tial Cherokee clan established by
Scotchman who came over after the
battle of Culloden AS the descendants
OF Adair by his Cherokee wife grew up
they were sent away to American COL
leges and given the best OF opportunl-
ties for education. McNair is another
OF the familiar Scotch names Introduc-
Cd into the Cherokee Nation by this
Scotch infusion. The McNair who
came over after Culloden was a High
lander One OF his descendants lives
on magnificent estate OF 1900 acres
in the beautiful valley Of the Grand
river. Duncan is another Scotch name
found among the Cherokees. The head
and front Of the Cherokee opposition
to American citizenship is Duncan,
whose claim to Cherokee citizenship
would not be guessed by any physical
characteristics. He Is Scotch In looks
ard Scotch in his love OF a controversy,
