when Jack Howard, who was tend.

Rufus Thompson Thinks il All Right
Rufus Thompson, while in the city
last week. was interviewed by the
ARGUS on the animal bounty ques-
ton and stated emphatically that II
the bounty was discontinued now that
all the good that had been derived
from 1t during the past years would
be undone and the pest Of the prai.
rie would again become as numer-
GUS as before in a short time. while
II it was continued or a larger bounty
offered, it Is only a question Of u
few years when the wolf and coyote
would be non est.
Mr.. Thompson is of the opinion that
very little fraud is being p~erpetrated
since the bounty has been raised on
cubs and that the statement made In
some of the state papers to the effect
that the females. both of the coyote
and wolf species. were saved for
breeding purposes, is and
without foundation since the boun.
ty has been raised. Mr.. Thompson
will spend the winter with his family
in Nebraska.

The Kendall Mine.

The S50-ton cyanide mill OF the Ken
dali company is now running to near
ly its full capacity, and every depart.
ment is operating to the satisfaction
Of the management, published reports
to the contrary Notwithstanding. The
question Of obtaining dry ore for the
mill was settled satisfactorily some
time ago, and the water problem was
solved in the same agreeable way;
so there are now no unfavorable con
ditions to contend against. Every
portion of the works is finished except
the refining building. Fixtures for
that section are, however, nearly all
in place. Here are established the
latest devices for treating the finish
ed product of the mill and preparing
it for final shipment. To guard against
fire from the outside Superintendent
Lang has had a line of pipe placed
along the whole roof of the buildings.
This pipe is perforated, and when so
desired water can be turned on and
the roof copiously sprayed. With this
device in use a serious fire would be
impossible. During a recent storm
lightning burned out the fuse of the
electric wires and the safety OF the
plant was threatened. This incident
prompted the management to take
every precaution necessary to guard
against fire.
The new shaft has reached a depth
Of $50 feet. It is going down into the
ore body, which is proving to be more
eextnsive than the management ever
conjectured. This shaft will be
utilized to more thoroughly explore
the great ore deposits. As fast as the
ore is hoisted through the shaft 1t is
dumped into a chute, which extends
| from an open cut to the tunnel below.
Thence 1t Is hauled In cars to the mill.
The quality of the ore found in the
deepest workings In the mine is super.
Tor to that extracted from the open
cuts. This gives abundant assurance
that deep mining in Kendall will prove
to be even more profitable than the
~so-called surface mining.
The management of the Kendall
company is very conservative and
does not give out figures regarding
the bullion output of the mine. Blu;
considering the assay value Of the ore
being milled and the quantity being
put through, 1t is believed that the
output must be at least $4,000
month.
AS soon as the iron pipe arrive,
from Chicago 1t will be substituted
for the wooden pipe now in use be
tween the mill and the pumping sta
ton on Warm Springs creek, six miles
away. When this pipe is laid thu
water question will be settled for al
time. Preparations are being mad,
to paint and otherwise improve thu
appearance of the mill and othet
buildings of the plant. This work will
be all completed before cold weathe'
sets in.-Kendall Chronicle.

ARMY OFFICERS ARE TOO FEW

WASHINGTON. Sept. 4,-lThe War depart-,

a sufficient number Of officers on the active
list to supply the demand for military in
'structors in colleges. Under the new order
adopted the colleges are divided into three
classes, agricultural schools make up one
class and strictly military schools make up
another. The third class is composed Of all
other schools to Which army officers are de-
tailed. Up to the present time 1t has boon
the practice to assign active officers to the
purely military schools, retired officers to
the schools which do not make a speciality
Of military education. and either retired or
active officers to the agricultural schools.
Under the new order 1t is held that only
active officers may be assigned to the agri-
cultural schools. This determination will
necessitate the relief Of a considerable num-
Der Of retired officers who now are assigned
to such schools, aud the department is hard
