IMPROVEMENTS At WILTON.
Additional Machinery that Will Large
iy Increase the Output Of the Mine.

Wilton News: Early Wednesday
morning ground was broke for the new
elevator shaft at the Wilton mine, and
its advent marks a page of progress in
the history of coal mining in North Da-
kota. Mesdames Bookwalter and Daw-
son of this city, turned the first few
spades of earth that started the work
which will increase fourfold the out
put of the mine.
The old hosting apparatus, both the
incline cable car route and the endless
chain elevator-a large grain elevator
bucket or trough system-are entirely
adequate to meet the increasing de-
mands on the mine-and the new ele-
vator will when working to its full ca
I hours a day, increase the
output from 1000 to 4, tons per
day.
Power will be furnished the new
pant by two 3O-horse-power Danville
steam engines; the new shaft will be
G5 feet from the surface to the bottom
and the engine rooms and other build
ings that will be used directly in on
nection with the new hoist will cover
considerable ground when completed
and will make an imposing sight.
Up to the present time the drifts
have been worked north from the in
cline and elevator entrances to the
showed better than those in any other
quarter. but it was necessary to work
in some general direction. and the
chambers have with but few eXcep-
tons run north. ,~eafter the work
will extend south of the new shaft,
which is situated just east of the old
elevator. and the haul under ground
will be made shorter than before
permitting fewer men to accomplish
a greater amount of work.
At a rough estimate the improve
ments Irrespective of the b%riquetting
plant that will be put in during the
summer) will represent an outlay OF
about $4,000 and was furnish employ
ment for a large number of well paid
men.
The new mine two miles further
east, will be opened during - sum
mer. some work on the railroad lead
- " -. I-..:~- L~A- J~~N will
have a capacity of about 1000 tons
per day for the first season; and the
hosting machinery now employed IN
mine No. l will be used for the pres
ent.
When the new elevator is completed
the entire electric power now in use
VIZ be turned to tho "itv light plan
and-will fill a long-felt want.

Lord Roberts once found himself
the center of a circle of new friends
in a London club. There was a very
tall gentleman present, who, evident
ly believing himself to shine as a
wit, seized every opportunity to
raise a laugh at the other peoples
expense. On being introduced to
Lord Roberts, the wit bent down
patronizingly to his lordship, and re-
marked.

though the famous general, being so

there was real moisture in her eye.
''What has she done?" said I to
Jennings, that you should take her
away like this? Others may have put
stolen articles in my cellar, but does
it argue that because this girl lived
in the room above the celler that she
was guilty? They were in my house
but was l guilty? Why don't you
arrest me
"You hardly have the appearance
of a fence Mrs. Brathwaite; besides
which, your previous good character
must testify to-"
"Thank you, dear old Wildly. You
would save me if you could, but as
you see, Mr.. Jennings is prejudiced."
She turned on Jennings then, and
with a phenomenal change of voice
and tone which held all that could
be imagined of bitterness, helpless
rage, anger, passion, and hatred, she
shrieked:

Miss Dacres, with a shudder. 1t
seemed to me as if she might have
been somewhat ashamed of these
revelations before me. I have always
hoped that there was that much good
in her. A million thoughts rushed
pell-mell through my brain. "Who
is to tell the ladies?-the dear la
dies!" was uppermost.
And now, with a lightning rip of
her black nuns dress, Bob Jennings,
the detective, cut open the girls
skirt. He drew something quickly
forth and threw it into my lap. "They
will be safe with you,' he said, and
turned towards the door. "We must
go if We want to catch the 1927 ex-
press" and he hurried my sometime
boarder from the room and out into
the night. The policeman arose.

RUFFLEs ON THE DRUM.
We're Not sewed on as the
Young Woman Probably
Supposed.

a young woman visited the BATTLE
ship Illinois just after Prince Henry
had been received on board with the
ceremonies due to a person of his
station in life. These were all de-
scribed to her, says the Argonaut,
before she began her tour of in
spection.
Among other interesting. things
she was told that on this occasion,
as at all reviews before a monarch
OF the president, one of the marks of
respect had been the ruf1es on the
drum. When she came to the ships
band, which was drawn up on the
quarterback, she studied it with in
terest for some moments. Then she
turned to the officer who was escort
ing her, and said:
rs that the drum they used when
Prince Henry came on board?"
"Yes," answered the officer. Then
observing that she seemed puzzled
about something, the officer asked her
what it was.
"Why," she answered, 81 don't see
the rufles that you said were put on
the drum in honor of the prince"
1t was a little hard for her escort
to explain that the ''ruffies" he had
referred to are not the kind that
adorn a dress, but a low, rolling,
vibrating beat.

The priest stood sullen and pale.

handing the bound wrists to his
companion, took certain stage prop

the old mariner seems destined to sink
to oblivion in the sands of the inland
sea which he discovered in 1898.
There are dozens of other statues
OF equal merit that might be men
toned, and now Chicago is to have a
new one. This time it is to be a mas
terplece, the work of Daniel Chester
French, a replica of the famous bronze
of Washington, which he made for
the Daughters of the American Revo-
luton, and which they erected in Paris
at the time of the last exposition
there. 1t will be among the best, if
not the best, bit of bronze that tbe
city can boast of.
