 MT. Houghman will soon erect a small quartz mill at the mouth of Pnkard's gulch, five miles from Mo- renci. His claims adjoin the Stevens Porter group of gold claims at Bonanza camp, upon which some wonderfully rich gold ore has been developed dur ing the past few months. In fact much of the ore shows free gold and it all pans well. These mines are in the lime belt and are undoubtedly the source of the placer gold which was found in great quantities in early days in the gulches of that section.-Coppar Era.

The Johnson mine is located on Rich Hill, from the surface of which hill, years ago, mug gets of gold were gathered in such quantity that recitals of the golden harvest sound more like a wild dream of fiction than facts; but there are min ing men living in this section who will Vouch for the truth Of these state ments.

CHICAGO. Dec. I5-Express mes
sengers. OF whom there are about 10000
employed on the railroads OF the North
American continent, are about to form
an organization TO better their con-
ditlon.
A number or meetings OF messengers
and labor leaders have been held in
the pas. few months looking to the
formation Of a union Of that calling.
but no definite plans have been made
These gatherings occurred more through
accidental meetings Of messengers and
labor leaders than by the design Of
either TO organize.
Ono such gathering occurred yesterday
in the course OF the express drivers
and conductors election Of officers.
Naturally the labor leaders tried TO show
the express company employees the ad-
vantages to be gained by organization.
Those approached took kindly to the
idea, and some of them went so far as
to confer with their fellow-workers re-
garding the formation Of a union.
The impromptu meeting discussed the
advisability Of such a step. and de-
cided It was move in the right di
rection. Those interested also consulted
with the officials Of other railroad or
ganIzations as to the best steps to take.

DEPOSITS OF SALT AND
GYPSUM IN VIRGINIA
The United States Geological Survey
Studies Their Extent, Nature
and Origin.

Important deposits OF salt and gypsum
which occur in Smyth and Washington
counties. Virginia. have been recently
Investigated by Edwin c. Eckel. Of the
United States Geological Survey.
The salt deposits are the foundation Of
an important alIali industry at saltville.
Va, while the gypsum is largely used
both as land plaster. and. after calci-
nation, as wall plaster. Lack Of trans
portation facilities has retarded the de-
velopment OF the deposits, several of the
largest gypsum bodies remaining practi-
cally untouched on this account. In the
investigation Of the nature and extent
of these deposits an effort was made to
determine their probable age and origin.
Opinions have differed greatly regarding
these points. their time OF formation be-
ing variously referred 20 the Silurian.
Carboniferous. Tertiary, and Pleistocene
ages; while their origin has been con-
sidered as due TO the action of decOm-
posing pyrites. OF sulphur springs. and
10 concentration in closed basins. The
work OF the present season shows that
the deposits probably occur as local de-
velopments In lower carboniferous lime
stones and shales; that they are due 10
basins, and hence are OF the same geo.
logic age as the rocks with which they
occur.

TWO JOHN SMITHS GET
MIXED ON PENSIONS
Through Mistake One Gets an Increase
Which Was Granted to the Other.

A curious story OF mistaken identity
lies behind a bill introduced by Repre-
sentative Pearre OF Maryland to repeal
a pension bill passed at the last session
II is the story Of a comedy OF errors. in
which Uncle Sam involuntsrily played
the part OF Santa Claus to a poor and
deserving old soldier who was too mod
est TO ask the relief which he deserved
The soldier Is John Smith. OF East
Liverpool. Ohio. He was badly injured
in the civil war and lost his eyesight as
a result OF his wounds. He drew a PEN
sion Of SI2 a month. While other veter-
ans suffering from slight disabilities got
complaisant Congressman TO introduce
bills increasing their pensions. John
Smith. totally disabled. Dlodded along
on his original pension and never
thought OF asking an increase
In the same troop OF the same cavalry
regiment in which John Smith served
there was another John Smith, who nov
lives in Cumberland. Md. The TWO
Smiths were friends and served through
! the war side by side. They we're wound
ed in the same battle. After the war the
/ two men drifted apart. but each Joined
the same soldiers organizations and
there was remarkable similarity about
their careers. Smith OF Maryland also
drew a pension for his injuries.
At the last session Mr.. Pearre intro
duced a bill 20 increase John Smiths
pension from S12 TO s24 a month, and it
was passed He meant Smith Of Mary
land. but the descriptions OF the two men
we're identical. and the Pension Bureau
paid the increase 20 the blind Smith in
| Ohio. That veteran supposed that some
kind friend interceded for him without
his knowledge. and gratefully accepted
the increase. Smith OF Maryland began
to make inquiries about why he did not
receive his increase. and Mr.. Pearre
discovered that it had been going TO the
wrong man.
Knowing nothing Of Smith OF Ohio. Mr.,
Pearre introduced a bill to repeal the
bill increasing that soldiers pension as
a preliminary TO giving it 10 the right
man. The Pension Committee investi-
eating the case came to the conclusion
that Smith Of Ohio was better entitled "a
an increase than even Smith OF Mary
land. and the bill was not repealed.
Mr.. Pearre has introduced a bill in
creasing the pension OF the Maryland
Smith. and the probability is that both
the old comrades In arms will enjoy Z
doubled pension as a result OF the bu-
reau's mistake.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

His Appointment by Rome Brings
Many Words of Praise

Members OF the local as well as out

delegate TO the United States. The or
ganization has met with much an
tagonism from sources not without favor
at Rome. and are pleased that the Pope's
present representative in America is
distinctly in favor of the order.
Cardinal satolli gave his approval to
the organization some years ago, but
withdrew IL when the storm Of opposi-

these words in his same address:
a solemn engagement mas peeh th-

You promised fidelity to her laws. sub
mission 20 her authority, Difference and
obedience to her pastors, and the church
in recognition OF your fealty called
down upon you the blessings OF heaven
and took you under her protection.
Therefore. as long as you shall remain
faithful to your promises you may rely
on her support"
In view OF this strong utterance, the
Knights OF Columbus feel that even wi:n
few OF the bishops vehemently opposed

Catholic body. they are assured OF the
necessary support from friend at court
