JAPANESE STUDENT
STUDIES MIhERAL0cY

The ambition of the high class
Japanese to learn the American
method OF doing things, particularly
in the mechanical arts and in the appli-
cation of science to the business affairs
Of life, was illustrated by the presence
in town last Saturday afternoon of n
young man from the Land of the
Rising SUM- who halted here between
trains while en- route from Cripple
Greek to Salt Lake City. whittier he
was going for the purpose Of making
an investigation OF the processes em-
ployed in mining in the mineral camps
of Utah and other states on the West
ern Slope.
The young man in question, who can
hardly be more than twenty year. Of
age, and not much, II any, in excess of
four feet In height. is student OF
metallurgy at Harvard university and
is making tour of the mining districts
of the Rocky mountains during the
vacation period with view of supple-
menting his regular studies with a
little private investigation. His itin-
erary Tor the summer included Cripple
Greek. Leadviile, Telluride, Salt Lake
City, Butte, Montana, and the Home-
stake mines in the Black Hills, South

CLOSE CALL AT
RAILROAD CROSSING

Two ladies. whose homes are on
Lincoln Park. narrowly escaped play
ing the leading role in u tragedy at
the Ninth street crossing of the Denver
and Rio Grande railroad last Friday
afternoon, and that no harm befell
them is largely due to the prompt
action of Mr.. Maddox, local agent Of
the company, and to the engineer OF
passenger train No. !, who succeeded
in stopping the locomotive In time to
prevent running inio the vehicle in
which the two ladies were seated at
the time.
Although the electrical alarm, with
which the crossing is provided. was
ringing. they attempted to drive across
the tracks, and would have succeeded
If the horse had not balked At that in
opportune moment. The animal ap-
parently did not hear or see the ap-
preaching train until getting on the
track and the sight OF the locomotive,
hardly more than seventy-five yards
away, seemed to paralyze it with fright
causing It TO plant its feet firmly on
the rosdbed and refuse to bulge, al
though urged In every way to do 60 by
the ladies Seeing their predicament,
the engineer reversed the lever and
applied the air to the brakes as quickly
as possible, with the result that the
train was brought 10 a standstill with
in, probably, forty feet of the obstrep-
erous horse.
Mr. Maddox, and others, who wit
messed the occurrence from the station
platform, ran to the relief Of the inn
perilled ladies' and forced the stubborn
animal out OF danger and held it by the
bride until the train pulled up at the
depot. The ladies displayed an unus-
ual degree of composure, remaining in
the carriage throughout the entire
occurrence.
Whether IL was case of hypnotism
or parAly sic from fear on the part Of
the horse, aroused some speculation
among those who witnessed IL, but as
they amount TO about the same thing,
in their last analysis. they afford but
slight clue TO the peculiar conduct Of
the animal I, was one OF the closest
calls from death seen here for long
