The project of installing a dynamo
plant at the Douglas mill in Dayton
for furnishing the Como-Eureka hoist
and mill plants at Como with electric
power, mentioned exclusively in the
Report last October, has materialized
and part of the electric plant has been
delivered at Dayton and it's installa-
ton will be conducted under the super
vision of consulting engineer, Leon
NJ Hall, of the Comstock Pumping
Association, who is here for the pur-
pose.
The power for operating the dyna
mos will be furnished from the Dou-
glas mill dam on the Carson river
AS heretofore stated in the Report,
the cost of the plant is estimated at
$50, 600 and the expense will be borne

of operations there during the winter
months, which was unavoidable On ac'

SHIPMENT
( OF ORE
ORMSBY COUNTY HAS Pre-
DuCINC MINES
Good Example Set by Local
PROSECUTORS

Yesterday the shipment of silver Gre
from the Deitereich's brothers mne
and the False Alarm claim was made
to Selbys. Fifteen tons is the amO-
unit of the consignment, and it is fig
ured that the ore will net fair pro-
mt to the owners in spite of the fact
that silver is down far below par. The
mines have made a number of ship
ments and in every case the returns
have been satisfactory. When it is
considered that the ore has to be ship
ped by rail and smelling charges paid
on top of it. it proves that the mines
are of better quality than is general
ly supposed. The Deitereich brothers
have managed to make more than
wages from their property the past
year, in fact, this is the second ship
ment of ore from their mine.
Carson needs this kind of industry
to bring it out There is no doubt but
that dozens CT properties of the same
nature exist in the hills around, but
the trouble has been that everybody
is looking for big mine On top OK the
ground, and is not satisfied with the
small profits of a good prospect. In
the case of the small holdings in the
vicinity where the ores come from,
the holders have been content to take
cut enough to work their way and
give them wages. This has been &C
complshed and the properties are look
ing better to day than when work
was commenced.
Across the river a number Of prom
Using prospects are known to exist,
but the trouble has been that the
owners as a rule, have wanted a mine
before they had prospect. On sew
eral of the dumps many tons of ship
ping ore can be found that would have
netted enough to have given the own
ers working capital, and just why it re
Minis there mystery.
In one or two instances the owners
have acted the dog in the manger
plan, and have kept people out who
would have developed the properties
and have demonstrated whether OF
rot the mine was on the ground A
few more shipments OF ore by other!
in this neghborhood may encourage
the other claim holders to take fres}
hold and save themselves and the min
ing districts by shipping n combination
with each other.

MUST PAY TUITION.
Interesting Case in North Mankato
School District.

The school board OF North Mankatc
held an important meeting Saturday
evening, in which all of the members
participated. The principal topic Of
discussion was the case of a pupil at
tending the school, whose parents re-
side outside Of the district and who
refuse to pay tuition for the reason
that a portion of the farm is in the
school district. while the home is To-
Gated outside the district. At the pre-
vious meeting of the board the matter
was brought up and was referred to
A. Anderson, member of the school
board, who consulted Attorney W. L.
Comstoch Mr.. Comstock thought
that the school board could compel
the parent to pay the tuition. but the
parent in turn could deduct the
amount of his school tax and apply
the same on the tuition. Mr.. Com
stock cited similar case that was be-
fore the supreme court.
The board acquiesced and the par
ent will hereafter have to pay tuition.
The matter of having no recess at
the school was brought up, but did
not receive the sanction of the board
By unanimous vote they decided to
continue having the recess periods in
the school. 1t was argued by the no
recess advocates that better school
work could be done if no recess was
had, but on the other hand it was
thought thst it would be better to get
the exercise and fresh air that recess
allows.
Last week the North Msnkato
school was visited by State Inspector
Rankin of st. Paul, who expressed
pleasure at the manner in which the
school work was conducted.

ENDLESS NIGHTS
The Experience of a Woman Who
Could not Sleep.

To lie awake and count the hours, with
never a wink of sleep, or at most only
fitful doze, till it is time to get up-most
people have gone through the experience
once in while. But to have it keep up
night after night-then it is wearing
and, in the end, will undermine the
strongest constitution and reduce the
vitality to low ebb.
Sleeplessness has always something Of
disease or undue excitement in it. The
excessive use Of tea, coffee, tobacco, or
any narcotic, may bring it on. In such
cases, if the patient stop the use Of, or
use more moderately, those stimulants,
he can overcome the trouble. 1t may
come, too, from dyspepsia. general run
down condition of the system, from dis
ease or insufficient nutrition, feverish
excitement, too much blood in the head,
etc. In these latter cases medicine that
will feed the nerves and build up and
purify the blood, like DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People is recommended.
That this medicine will accomplish q
cure in such cases has been proven in
thousands Of instances. One of them is
that of Mrs. Carrie A. Roberts, of No.
Melville street, Augusta, Me-, who was
at one time a sufferer from insomnia and
nervousness but was permanently cured
by DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pals
People. She says:
