Phillipsburg. Aug. 3.-The Bimetal-
lie mine, at Granite, near here, one
of the biggest silver producers in the
northwest, suspended operations to-
day, it being announced by President
Paul A. FUSE, of the Bimetallic CON-
pany that the shut down is perma.
nent. The pumps in the lower levels
have been pulled, and the mine will
be allowed to fill with water to the
tunnel level. It has been generally
known for long time that the ore
bodies of the Bimetallic had become
impoverished, but work has been con-
tinued in the hope of opening up new
deposits of mineral.
The Granite Mountain mine was op-
Grated in conjunction with the Bime-
tallic, and the properties have pro.
duced over $31, 100000 since the dis.
covery of the bonanza shoot in 1882.
The majority of the stock of the
Bimetallic company is held by Mis-
sourians, notably among whom is
Charles D. Mcclure, of st. Louis.

Rather an improbable story from many
points OF view. yet with all this the reader
will find himself or herself so deeply inter
ested In it's pages that II is laid aside,
even for a moment, with regret. 1t is
the quint essence OF the mysterious and
the plot we'll woven, telling of an Italian
artist who uses the fiancee of the woman
he loves as the dying model for his
famous picture. About this point and
the disappearance OF the man the story
is built. The hero, or the one who Is
telling the tale is a brother OF the man
whose life is sacrificed for love and art,
and who is also in love with the heroine.
He undertakes To unravel the mystery.
which he docs finding that the artist is
insane and has done murder for the sake
OF art. carefully covering up, for a time,
his deeds OF horror.
From start 10 finish the tale is well
told. and every chapter is brim full Of ex-
cellent situations. so we'll worked up that
the reader does not know what 10 expect
next. All in all II is extremely good
reading, though improbable.
