ANDERSON DEFEATED
IN A VERY FAST GAME

Holderness left the game and his
place was taken by Little Dewitt,
who played star game at half
back. In the second period the spec
tators thought that Elwood was at
to run away from Muncie
as Old Man Roberts piled up three
goals in this one period in very
qiuck order.

producing and most profitable mines in the world are capitalized for amounts far below tlre dividends they have already paid Of rourse any mine making good showing at the beginning may prove to be one of the bonanza mines, but in its early history this is usually only a possibility. Moreover. it is really not so much the capitaliza- of the proposition as the price at which investors buy into the enter prise that is 10 them the trhe meas ure of success or failure.-Mining and Scientific Press.

New Customs Regulations.

On Aug. 9th the treasury depart ment at Washin gton sent a com munication to Capt.

A number of petitions from var ious sources were sent 10 the Treas ury department asking that Fair banks be made support of entry. After a careful consideration of the subject the department has finally decided not to comply with the re- quest but in order to facilitate mat ters for the shippers and trans portation companies an arrange ment is made whereby goods may be shipped from the states through Canadian territory to Fairbanks and goods may be shipped from Dawson direct to Fairbanks, but in the latter case a customs inspec- tor will accompany the shipment from Eagle to its place of destina- tion at the expense of the transpor- tation companies. This arrange ,nent of the Treasury department also allows British or other foreign vessels to carry goods to Fairbanks but does not permit them to trade between American ports.

Creely Addresses Alaska C1ub.

A strong address on the needs of Alaska and the proper methods hv which the big Northwestern terri sory can le successfully opened for permanent settlement was delivered last night by Gen, A. w. Greelv before the Alaska Club, in it's new quarters at the Ranier-Grand hotel .1en. Gveely stated that he had great faith in Aiaska and took a deep interest in it's welfare. A DOT ton of his address follows.
 Il believe that the present rail. roads, building and in operation, will open up portion of Alaska containing vast resources and create sufficient business for them. selves to be fur more than simply self-sustaining, Ny faith Tn Alaska IS great aud nothing can shake it. All that is now necessary for us is to pull together for the welfare of the territory.
 Some time ago I had an hours talk with Secretary Root relative to Alaska's needs, which, later, he requested me to submit in writing. did so, and the document was transmitted to the president, and that document, I am given to un- derstand, had much to do with the Alaskan clause in his last message to congress. My interests in the territory are purely official and l do not own single mine there. but believe that the government should come to the aid of the ter ritOry."
 When asked by member of the club as to the feasibility of the con- struction of a railroad from Valdez over Marshall pass in the direction of Copper river Gen. Greedy said:
 "lf the government could be in- duced to subscribe half a million dollars as Q subsidy towards the construction of the road I am cer- tain that it could be completed, or 1t tho government gave an equal subsidy to any prospective roads I believe that the people would rise to the occasion and build the roads themselves. All that is now neces- sary is sufficient money to get the thing going.

To Bachelors.

There are some hundreds of thousands more men than women in the Central and Western states of America and in Canada.
 As result thousands of trusty mcn-Farmers, Miners and others living in certain districts there cannot possibly get wives in their own neighborhoods.
 But in England, Scotland. Ire land and Wales there are a million more women than men and, in these countries, thousands of good, intelligent and attractive girls many of them daughters of farmers and all of them qualified to make excellent wives-see nothing be- fore them while they stay here but the prospect of living and dying as old maids and this, to them, is decidedly unpleasant prospect. They would willingly emigrate to America, could they be assured that they were going to meet worthy men there as husbands, and that they could look forward to happy, if humble, homes on the other side. of the Atlantic.
 We may say that all of them could afford to emigrate at their own expense.
 We are prepared to give good men introductions to these girls.
 If you wish to get an introduc- tion please write Us with such par ticulars of yourself (age, national ity, occupation and circumstances) as sensible girl would expect to get and we shall write you in re- ply, with d view to bringing about a suitable introduction without un- due delay.
 Tell us what kind of a wife Gage, nationality, appearance and dis position) you wish to get.
 If you have preference for any particular Christian Sect please name it.
 You will also enclose our fee of $5. A further fee of $45 will be due to us within one month after marriage, thus making $50 alto gether. We do not confne our selves to one introduction. We give as many as will be necessary until marriage. But we make no charge for any introduction after the payment of our said fee of $5 for the first.
 It is not at all necessary that you should be a wealthy man.
 But it is necessary that you be a man who would make a kind. and good husband to a good wife.
 If you are not such man please do not write us.

High Valuation.

One of the most serious draw backs to the floating of new min. ing enterprises is the high valua- tion placed on a property of intrin- sically small relative value. A prospect may be opened and de- veloped until it becomes a mine having an actual net valuation of, say, '$l00,O00 with . prospective valuation of double that amount. The mine is bonded for, possibly, $250,00O on the deferred payment
 plan, and then the proposition is incorporated and capitalized for, perha ps, $5,OOO.OOO. with a million sasares at $5 each. The promoters take about 100000 of these shares tor their trouble and 400. 900 shares gre offered to the public at the low price of a per share, the remaining 800, 900 shares being placed in the treasury to be sold later, if neces- sary, to carry on development or to provide equipment, or to be ab- sorbed by the promoters if the ven- ture proves successful. Under the impression that stock offered at 20 percent of its face value must be a good investment, the public pays $4OO,OOO for two-fifths interest in a mine having doubtful though possible total value of $2OO, O,OOO. The natural outcome of this meth cd of procedure is numerous fail ures. Even if the property proves . success, viewed from the basis of its true valuation at the time of in- corporation and promotion, it still may fall far short of realizing the expectations of the investors. The property may pay $5OO.OOO net profit, which would entitle it to be included among good mines; but the public who bought it on basis of q. 100000 only receive 50 cents on the dollar on their invest ment and, as far as they are con- cerael, the proposition is failure. This is but a single instance of mine promotion, and with little change may represent any one of a large number of Rotations. If mines were generally promoted on . more conservative basis, there would be more successes recorded, and the investing public would seek uiniRg investments in preference to ether stocks. In contrast to the above described method of mine promotion, some sf the greatest

evening with President Roosevelt at the White
House talking over the political situation. Mr..
Root told the President that IN his judgment
there no doubt of his election; that New

mating 600o0 votes. and that if his prediction
proved 10 be correct the Republican State ticket
also would be successful. A material reduction

paign which is drawing 10 q close, ex-
pressed his qualification that, so far as the Re-
publican National Committee was concerned II
had been conducted amicahy. There had
not been any discord. he said. The amount Of
money expended by the Republican committee
