Master Geo Blake, a thorough young

touched off one near his fathers horses
which were hitched to load of lumber.
The horses became frightened and
started off with the load at rapid gait

1t is interesting to consider
what will be the probable effect
of the resumption of gold mining
in South Africa upon the world
supply of gold and upon the flu
ture use of silver asmoney. John
Hayes Hammond estimates that
within a year of the time that
mining on the Witwatersrand
attains the scale existing before
the war the output will be at the
rate of $1OO,OOO,OOO annually,
and that within three years it
will reach $125, 100000. What
this means may be appreciated
when we remember that the to-
tai production Of the world last
year was less than 100000.
The supply is increasing in other
quarters, and the prospect is
that the annual total may reach
$5OO,OOO,OO0 in a few years.

Certainly it is, if he is insulted !;

not. Senator Beveridge simply

ranted attack made upon him by

At mass meeting of the citizens

the vicinity of Let's company was
organized for the purpose of drilling
for oil. For a dozen years gas has
been found in this region and many
families have used it for fuel and
lighting purposes. Recently c. E.

Pennsylvania and who has spent the
greater part OF his life in the Brad
dock oil fields acquiring a general
knowledge of the oil business, visited
Let's and after careful inquiry into
the situation concluded that it was
sufficiently encouraging to warrant
prospecting for oil. The citizens of
the neighborhood thought likewise
and at a mass meeting attended by
fully 100 of them they formed the
Let's Oil & Development company.

STRICKEN WITH
APPENDICITIS
HI. X. Mack Suddenly Attacked, I'm
dergoes Serious Opera
ton.

H. h. Mack, while engaged at his
duties as chief clerk in the division
freight offices of the Burlington in
this city yesterday afternoon, about
o'clock, was suddenly taken ill, but
was able to proceed home. The fam
lily physician was at once summoned
and pronounced the case one of ap-
pendicitis.
The patient was accordingly re
moved to st. Luke's hospital in Dav-
export, and late in the evening an OPP
Grafton was performed. 1t was
found that the disease had made
greater progress than was at first
suspected, but the operation was sue
cessfully performed, and although
the patient is in very critical CON
dition, the symptoms this afternoon
were reported favorable.
The attack was noticed during the
early part of the month, but little
was thought of it and it was supposed
to be merely some minor ailment.
Mr.. Mack is one of Rock Islands
best known and most popular young
men, and his many friends win anx-
iously await the news that he has
passed the danger point.

Davenport Democrat: Catcher Jack
Evers is suspended at present pend
ing investigation of his attack on
Umpire Hickey last Saturday. Jack
saws he is discouraged and wants to
quit and go home, but Manager
Hayes and his friends here hope he
will stay and prove that he can curb
his temper In this connection Jack
might be advised to bet a new hat
with Manager Hayes that he would
not get into trouble again this sea-
son. Ex-Capt Smith has a hat up,
and every time he sees something
that looks rank and starts in from
the field, he says he thinks of that
hat and turns around and walks back.
It's good scheme.

Myron Jordan Secretary and Treasurer OF
Denver Printing Firm.

The following from the Denver
News of July 20 is of local interest.
Myron Jordan, who is mentioned as
the new secretary and treasurer of
the Smith-Brooks Printing company,

tors room of the Denver Athletic
club, o. L. Smith, of the Smith Brooks
Printing company, resigned from the
presidency and w. II. Kistler. of the
Kistler Stationery company, was
elected in his place. Mypon Jordan,
manager of the Publishers Press
Room company, was elected secretary
and treasurer.
THE proceedings were marked by
a distinct GOODNESS toward the Smith
Brooks company, owing to the action
of o. L. Smith, who suggested dis
bandment of the organization. The
meeting for the election of officers
had been postponed from a former
one, at which it was given out that
Mr.. Smith would not be reelected. He
succeeded in postponing action at
that meeting. but when he called yes
terday's meeting to order he resigned.
On a vote for a new executive, he re
ceived one vote, the rest going to Mr..
Kistlcr.
Mr.. Smith then suggested dis
bandment. and on roll call the votes
of his own firm, Carson-Harper and
w. +. Robinson, were registered in
favor of his motion. The majority
was against his motion. Mr.. Smith
then rendered the resignation of his
firm from membership in the associ-
alton, but there was no second, and
he was advised to reconsider.

the purpose of treating. as an organ

There is no firm whose name is

turers of all kinds of uniforms, robes,
badges. banners, swords, sword belts,

of banner designs for labor unions,
and the labor organizations will
make no mistake in giving this de-
serving company their most hearty
support and cooperation. This com
pany has maintained most favor
able attitude toward labor and the
union forces are never slow in rec
ognizing their friends and will aid
in every way possible to make this
company a still greater success.
Their product is certainly one de
serving of most liberal patronage by
the unions and citizens of our cities
and the entire country. At this par
ticular time when we have opportun-
ity to place their names before thous-
ands of working men, we take adj
vantage of the opportunity to place
the name of the Rock Island Regalia
company where it well deserves to
be placed-foremost among our lead
ing concerns who are always to be
counted upon as friends of conserva-
tive organized labor. As Labor day
is drawing near we advise all unions
considering the purchase of banners
and badges to take the matter up at
once as we know the Rock Island

several banners for Labor day.-Tri-

Terre Haute shaken Up.

When the Terre Haute team arriv-

retired from that position and was
succeeded by Pitcher Hackett
Walters will remain with the club
as second baseman and field captain.
There have been many changes in
the playing positions of the team
and more or less demoraliza ton
among the players, resulting in the
loss of position in the pennant race.
Still, the club broke even on the trip
away from home, which is held to be
proof that the material to win again
this year is in the team if properly
handled. Walters wanted to resign
a few weeks ago, but was persuaded
to hold on for the trip away at least.
Walters has really been only fig
urehead manager, as the directors
have in reality managed the team,
one or another of them travelling
with it on its trips away from home.

weeks ago and returned to his trade
