deposits are not new. The old style forked stick with a coin in the end has been known by many, implicitly believed in by few, and classed as humbug by a vast ma jorily of those whose business it is to search for the precious metals. Some three or four years ago the Dawson papers printed a number of short articles-probably paid for as acknowledgements to describe a new and scientific device for locating the paystreak, in which electricity, utilized through instru- ments especially constructed for the purpose, was the chief agent. It was said the promoters were actu ally i'll the field and were seeking contracts to locate gold on unI ros pected ground for an interest in the property. It was puzzle to some why, if the device would perform the service claimed for it, its ma did not employ it on ground that might all be secured as their own.
 Now, among the scientific notes in Colliers s for Oct. IS, is the fol- loWii 2 announcement:
 "A new way of prospecting has teen tried e>perimentally, and is reaching the point where it is prac- ticaliv useful The method is based on the differences i'll the electrical conc activity of tue earth due to the presence of ore del osits. Most ores are much better conductors of cleo triCity than the soil and rocks, al though some others are almost insulators.
 In making use of these facts to locate beds of ore two electrodes are grounded about 100 yards apart Tn the circuit is an induction coil with glass condenser and two spark gaps. The current is passed through the ground and tested by two telel hone rec eivers Conr eCted to portable electrodes which are usually grounded about St tventy set apart. The make and break oi the current in passing through the ground is heard i'll the telo pho ne ; S ticks. As the electrodes attached to the telephones are moved abOu' the variations in tle II tersity oi the tapping in the telephones give an indication ,t the presence and position of the ore deposits. Al though the method IS not out oi the experimental stage vet il seems to promise much for itself in the
 future

Fairbanks News: Our opinion of the fitness of Judge Day for his special commission 10 Alaska last summer rises with each item of news from his reports. A close personal friend of the president, with the sane warm interest in the good of the common people, and with a trained judicial mind and incorruptible character, he was just the man for this delicate task. So far as they have come to us, all of his recommendations seem emi- nently wise, just and progressive. Unworthy officials have been dis missed and faithful ones reap pointed.
 Nome Gold Digger: Some men prate of the glories of war and talk learnedIy of strategy, etc, but the being who does that is a good big chunk of fool and knows little about the subject he speaks of. It's not the man who gets killed who suffers, or the treasury of the na- ton. It's the innocent at home. the women and children; it's the working man who finds that his labor is less and his expenses more. They suffer and they don't want war. Patriotism is good and the American who would refuse to fight for his country i'll case of need Is poor kind of man, but all wars are not necessary, aud 1t is questionable if any are.

NEW COMET OBSERVED.
Two Views Obtained at Naval Observa-
torv Last Night

The comet discovered by w. r. Brooks
of Geneva, N. Y, the evening Of April 16
was observed last night and early this
morning by Mr.. Frederick with the twenty
six-inch equilateral and by Mr.. Hammond
with twelve-inch eauilateral telescope at
the naval observatory in this city. These
observations were made in order to obtain
the position of the comet in the heavens, so
that it's orbit and the future movements
of the comet may be predicted with ac-
curacy. 1t will be necessary to obtain two
more observations Of It's position, with in
tervals of one day between each, before
its orbit can be computed
AS seen In the telescope the comet has
the general form of those fairly faint tele
scopic comets. 1t has a rather strong CEN
trail condensation and the semblance of
faint bushy tai. 1t Is of about the bright
ness of a star between the sixth and sew
enth magnitudes. In other words, 1t is just
beyond the limits of vision with the I'M
aided eye. AS yet the superintendent of
the naval observatory. Admiral Chester.
Is not prepared to say as to the proba-
bility of the comet growing brighter, and
will not be until the orbit has been COM
puted. which will be done by Wednesday
or Thursday next. 1t is not yet known
whether the comet is approaching or re-
ceding.
The astronomer at the naval observa-
tory will keep close watch on this new
celestial visitor and secure a definite UNI
Outstanding of its future movements at the
earliest possible date.

PRELATES FILE ANSWER.
Controversy in Court Over Disposition
of the "Pious Fund.-

The Roman Catholic archbishop of San
Francisco, Most Rev Patrick William Rior-
dan; the Roman Catholic bishop Of Mon
terey and Los Angeles, Right Rev. Thomas
]. Conaty; Right Rev. George Montgom-
cry, the Roman Catholic bishop of Sacra-
mento, and Right Rev. Thomas George
have filed their joint and several answers
to the bill in equity filed against them and
the Secretary of State and the treasurer
of the United States N the Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia by Nathaniel
Wilson and John w. Phillips and Fred
eric D. McKenney, the two latter as adj
ministrators of the estate of Philip Phillips
deceased. The complainants seek to- have
the court decree that Nathaniel Wilson is
entitled to receive per cent of all moneys
heretofore pad by the republic of Mexico
and also per cent Of whatever sums of
money shall hereafter be paid by the re-
public of Mexico by reason Of the judg-
ments and awards in connection with the
claim against the republic Of Mexico ,origi-
mating in the possession and retention by
Mexico of the property and money const1-
tuting what was known as THE Pious Fund
of the Californias;" and to decree that the
other compliments are entitled to ike re-
lief The compliments contend that they
are entitled to a lien on the money In ques-
ton for compensation for services as at
torneys due Nathaniel Wilson and the late
Philip Phillips.
The defendants in their answer allege
that neither Philip Phillips nor Nathaniel
Wilson ever performed or rendered any
service looking to the recovery Of the prin-
cipal or corpus of the Pfous fund, and 1ur-
thermore aver that from the time or :he
decision of Sir Edward Thornton, umpire,
In case No. 493. until the month or De-
cember. 1901. neither Wilson nor Phillips
the latter of whom died January IA, 1854,
had or held any communication of any KIND
whatever with the defendants or with the
archbishop or bishops of California in re-
| lation to the prosecution of the claims OF
| the defendants against Mexico. On the
contrary, 1t Is alleged, that from the pay
ment Of the first installment in 1878 Wilson
and Phillips treated the employment upon
which they seek to recover in the present
bill. Of complaint as terminated and ended,
and that they then and there abandoned
| the contract and treated as concluded thar
| services under the instrument bearing date
| June % 1873"
| 1t is added by the defendants that If they
| had not believed that the services of Philip
Phillips and Nathaniel Wilson were termi-
mated and ended, and that they had no
| claims upon the further installments OF the
Pious fund. If and when recovered, they
would not have made contracts with John
r. Doyle and William M. Stewart. which
contracts continued in full force and enect

Secure License.

Col. o. G. Staples. proprietor OF the Ma
tional Hotel, was named as a defendant In
the District branch Of the Police Court inns
morning on two charges of conducting the
hotel without having first paid the neces-
sary license tax. Prosecutor Pugh ex-
planned to Judge Scott that Colonel staples
was charged with not having secured
license for his place of business Tor the
year 1908 and again this year.
Attorney Tracy L. Jeffords. counsel Tor
Colonel Staples. asked for a continuance,
explaining that the license had been held up
last year and this year because his client
did not have the necessary certificates from
the fire marshaIeand building inspector. He
said Colonel Staples had made alterations
from time to time suggested by the OF
fcials, and at present was engaged In max
ing some repairs.
The court declined to continue the cases.
