BY the barest possible fraction of
space Michael Awkward escaped having
his skull crushed between two heavy
iron ore buckets Tuesday morning IN
the bottom of the shaft on the Tabor
lease on the Combination No. 2. Ayl-
ward had just gone on shift at the time
of the accident and was bending over
and loading a bucket when the cam on
the drum of the within failed to catch
and the bucket above descended the
170-foot shaft with ever increasing
velocity. The topman made a number
of frantic efforts to make the brake
work, but the cam, heavily coated with
frost, slipped over the cogs repeatedly.
At last, just when it appeared as
though Aylward e death was inevitable,
the brake checked the progress of the
rapidly unwinding cable at a point less
than six inches above his head.
Although Awkward escaped with his
life he sustained a number of serious
injuries which will confne him to his
bed for a considerable period. The
huge steel ring fastened to the bucket s
bottom struck the unfortunate man a
crushing blow in the face and on the
left arm, which he had thrown up IN
futile effort to ward off its force.
Stunned and bleeding Awkward was
hoisted to surface and removed to his
cabin near by and DIR. w. X. Robinson
summoned in attendance. His nose wss
broken. his upper lip was lacerated and
torn until but a shred Of flesh held I
in place, his left wrist was badly
bruised and cut, his lower lip was
lacerated n several teeth were
knocked out. DR.. Robinson reduced
the fracture and dressed the
wounds. He states that unless blood

A Resume of the Week by W. +. Bond

Thursday was the banner day on the

scenes Of intense excitement, with a
dramatic undercurrent of feeling quo

hesitation, and the market closed firm

Over two months ago we told our
clients. Ten weeks ago today, when
Red Top was but 80 cents, we began
sending out a series of letters advising
those doing business with us to buy
this stock. Each week we have be-

We simply pursued our usual policy

SHIPMENT FROM ALICE NINE

A shipment of ? tons of ore from the
Alice mine at Ida arrived in Gold
field this week and was unloaded at a
local mill for treatment. Assays OBJ
tanned at the point of loading indicate
a tonnage value of 5000.
The shaft on the property has been
sunk to a depth of 155 feet where
water was encountered, but not in suf-
ticient volume to hamper operations.
Drifting is now on at hat depth, and
with each round of shots the mineral
conditions are said to be improving.
Hosting is facilitated by means OF a
within and since its installation progress
has been more rapid. The general con
dition of the property is good and the
chances favorable for its becoming 3

SILVER BOW DISTRICT
Extensive Development Work Being
Prosecuted

As an evidence of the prosperity pre-
vailing in the Silver Bow country 1t
can be stated that considerable east
ern money has been invested there and
that within the past lew days the
Panama group of FIVE claims located
near Breen's ranch was purchased by
a syndicate of Chicago capitalists. The
new owners nave already let contracts
for the sinking of two shafts and are
preparing to inaugurate an extensive
system of exploration both below
ground and at surface.
The outcrop indicates that two
lodges traverse the group and it is the
intention to prospect them through tho
medium Of the shafts to a depth of SO
feet. At surface gold values of milling
grade have been secured and if they
prevail at the depth spoken OF it is the
intention to erect a mill on the prop
erty for the treatment of it's ores. If
the first mill is found to meet the re-
q%uirements a second is to be built for
the treatment of custom ores.
So far as developed every property
in that section is said to present favor
able indications for the finding of pay
values in quantity, and the fact that it
is attracting the attention Of monied
men is an evidence that its mineral
possibilities are to be thoroughly
tested.
One of the most promising properties
of the camp is that being worked by
Nixon, Wingfeld and Fulton. An i'm
mense ledge of mill ore is being devel-
oped and thus far with satisfactory re-
suits. A contract has just been
awarded for the sinking of the shaft
another so feet which will give a
depth of 100 feet, from which point the
ledge is to be crosscut and driftcd on.
At surface average assays of $50 per
ton prevail and it is thought these will
be bettered some at the depth spoken
of.
About two miles southeast of Silver
Bow, Britt and Donnelly are engaged
in developing a very encouraging ap-
pearing proposition and are obtaining
some very high gold returns both in the
way of p~anning and assays. A vein 4
feet in width is showing in the bottom
of their 20-foot shaft and at that depth
returns of from 800 to $1,000 per ton
are being secured.
They are engaged in prosecuting at
a depth of $50 feet in the shaft on the
Catlin group with the expectation of
tapping the ledge within rs feet of
drifting. At surface a strong, well
mineralized lead is showing and it is
believed that when it is reached at
depth steady pay values will be en-
eountered.
A vast amount of work is being lone
by the Oregon-Nevada Mining company
on the property owned by the Blazers
and William Stevenson. Two 20-foot
lodges o~utcrop on the holding and 4
crosscut tunnel has been started, at a
point where depth ear be gained rap
idly, for the purpose of interesting
them. Within rs feet o. boreing one If
the veins was encountered and has
been drifted on for a considerable dis
lance. 1t has also been crosscut at
various points and average values of
$40 per ton established.
Cook and Fausey, owners OF the
Climax group, have just finished the
location work necessary for holding
the acreage. In the course OF doing 80

than $500 TO the ton have been Sc

A Wish For the BishOp.

Bishop Coleman of Delaware, the
Episcopal 'ignitary who every sum-
mer makes two or three weeks tour
over the country, tramping incognito,
is a man of tremendous appetite and
IS proud Of It. But story Is related
OF a Kent county housewife who got
the best Of him. She was the learned
prelate's hostess on one Of his tramp
ing tours and, knowing very well who
he was, set before him dinner fit for
man Of great labors. The bishop ap-
preciated her cooking highly and told
her so, but he was unprepared for her
rejoinder: "Bless ye, bishop, eat your
fill, for loves to see ye eat; eat till ye
bust. I wisht you would"

Is Marriage a Diseasef

Sometimes 1t seems as though the an
tidivorce enthusiasts were not as sci
entifc in their methods as they should
be. The great, abOunding cause OF d.
vorce IS, Of course, marriage, and mar
riage, therefore, is the thing to investi-
gate. First, then, is marriage a germ
disease? We have considered this
question long time, getting no fur-
ther with it, but the scientific inyesti-
gators will be able to tell us. And If 1t
is a germ disease they can catch the
germ, and, the germ once caught, they
can get cultures and compose antitox-
ms which will strip this common and
serious complaint Of most Of its ter
rors. And, Of course, once we get mar
riage under control we shall be in a
position to regulate divorce with a pre-
cision absolutely scientific, If there Is
any divorce left to regulate.-Harper's
Weekly.

may be divided into different classes,
yet, after all, they all belong to one
great class. That class says: 1--WE are
all weary. We are all troubled. We,
are all sick at heart at best. There
fore it is our duty as far as In us lies
to try to bear each others burdens
through the help of Jesus Christ"
Thus everywhere the gospel mission
aries are going. Everywhere they are
planting their schools. Everywhere
they are trying to make the stronger
nations help the weaker and to make
each nation care for the weak among
its own subjects.
Never since the coming Of Jesus
Christ to earth was there better time
for the consummatlon Of the worlds
peace than the present. Cannot the
laws Of international arbitration,
through the power Of the Holy Spir-
It, accomplish this most beneficent
achievement? In order to lead all ma
tions to join this international COM
pact and to disarm our armies and to
dismantle our fortresses we need not
wait until all nations are converted to
Jesus Christ. We must have the SEN
timent Of the civilized world longing
for peace. Are not the better elements
of Europe and Asia and Africa and
America longing for the stopping Of
such carnage as was lately witnessed
at Port Arthur and Mukden? Are we
not longing that the sword may be
turned into the plowshare and the
spear into the pruning hook and that
men may not war any more?
SO, my friends, as never before l
want you to pray for the president Of
the United States. Pray that God may
enable him to lead the rulers Of the ma
tions to enter into compact to stop
hellish war and by the laws Of interna-
tlonal arbitration to stop it forever 1
want you to pray, and pray as never
before, for the teachers Of our public
schools and colleges and for the teach
ers who are laboring in our colonies
and missionary schools in foreign lands
as missionaries Of perpetual peace. o
God of Paul, who sat at the feet OF
Gamallel, teach thy teachers to lead
their scholars to thee! And l want you
also to pray and to work while you
pray for our church as a messenger Of
peace. AS the heart pumps the blood
to the farthermOst parts Of the body,
so a consecrated church Of the Lord
Jesus Christ is the heart which sends
forth the spirit which will give us
Christian statesmen and Christian
teachers and Christian messengers OF
perpetual peace everywhere.
May God bless those who are teach
ing men to love their fellow men and
to help them and to forgive them and
TO lead them to the cross Of that Christ
whose nativity song was peace on
earth, good will to men"

.CORTELYOU WARNS
HIS POSTMASTERS
Tells Them to Aid Political Party
Only by Good Official
Service.

Washington, April 27.---s.The best
service a postmaster can give to his
party, is to conduct his postoffice in a
proper manner.
This remark was made today by Post
master General George B. Cortelyou, IN
discussing the general subject Of politi-
cal activity of postoffice officials in
connection with the plan of the depart
ment under the postmaster generals di-
tions for the guidance Of postal en-
ployees.
Postmaster General Cortelyou's views
on the subject come from his knowledge
as political manager, as well as from
his experience as federal official. He
said today that the new rules will be
but summary of those already in exis-
tence, including the, formal rules pre-
scribed by the civil service laws, as
well as the orders which have been .is-
sued from time to time by the .presi.-
dent. These will all be codifed and
printed in the form of a circular, which
will be sent to every official Of the
postal service.
The postmaster general insists that
any official in the service ought to
know from these rules and regula tions
If he does not know, the department.
will supply the necessary discipline,
going even so far as actual dismissal.
The whole subject lately. has been
brought to the attention of the post
master general in connection with the
action of the assistant postmaster at
Louisville. This official became mem
Der, of the republican state central
committee. The objection raised was
that the committee was engaged in
raising funds for political purposes, and
it is said by the postmaster general
that such work should not be engaged
in by the officials Of the service. The
department does not rule that officials
not in the classified service shall take
n s1cb Pa1 Wor or of
nected with financial operations of a
political party, is contrary to good dis:
| cipline and the good Of the service.
