The Mission mine 10 making n
nice output every day. The lead
dirt seems to predominant, yet a
great deal of zinc ore IL made. The
drifts running west and south from
the mill shaft are exceptionally
rich, and the ground breaks very
easily. The new shaft, No. 8, 10
down almost to the ore body, and
according to the drillings the dirt
from the new shaft will prove to be
very rich. The Mission is a velvet
proposition, and has been for a
long time,
The Ward mine Ia the Quapaw
Mission pasture lie surely a good
one. just at present drift is be-
ing run to the east, and the dirt Ia.
ken out is simply immense. Very
little lead is found, but there is zinc
ore 10 abundance. And Il will az
say mighty we'll, too. II 10 thought
by expert miners that II will assay
fully az well as the Old Abe ore,
which 80 far assuys the highest of
any In the camp. A big run of this
high grade ore has been penetrated,
and the day Is not far distant when
Mr.. Ward will be compelled to put
up first class concentrating plant.
The ore breaks from the rock very
easily and will be easily milled.

We are glad to note that an ordin-
ance has been introduced in the
city council which, az soon az
passed, will prevent the building
of any more unsightly wooden
awnings. The ordinance provides
that all awnings over sidewalks
must be made of duck, canvas or
non-combustible material. The
latter term, we are Satisfied, means
galvanized iron. An old wooden
awning is one of the most insight.
ly things imaginable, and danger
GUS besides. A nice canvas avn
ing, or one made of galvanized
iron, without posts, is a thing of
beauty. It 10 easily kept in repair,
and will last for twenty-five years.
Many of the leading towus in this
country have the galvanized avn
ings. The ordinance will also pre-
vent the repair of wooden awnings.
When they become worthless or
dangerous they must be torn down,
and If a new one 10 built 1t must be
of the materials specified.

ExDeuSiye Wreck.

While coming down a steep grade,
last week, Tuesday, G. B. Howard
Co.'s 85-ton engine ran away, owing to
the ice on the rats. All of the crew
jumped except d. L. Ensign the en-
gineer, who stuck to his post of duty
until the engine neared a curve, when
six feet of him landed in snow bank,
considerably bruised and shaken up.
The engine and car of wood piled up
i'll one mass, about three car lengths
from Jim Davison's supply car, giving
the latter gentleman dood scare. The
engine was almost complete wreck.
This is the most expensive smash up
the firm has yet sustained. Gordon
Baker, the regular fireman, thanks hi
stars that he laid off that day, while he
is thankful his bottle of camphor pass
ed through the smash safely.

The Legislature Resumes Work.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
HARRISBURG, Pa.

Editor Press
The Legislature NETT his evening al
p. m., and the "House" Immediately
adjourned out of respect to Represent.
ative Bliss, of Delaware county, who
died two weeks ago. His seat was
draped in mourning and decorated
with large stand of white lilies.
The seat allotted to Cameron county
is No. 172, the third row from the back,
on the side isle, to the left as you
enter from the rear.
Everything seems to be in complete
working order in both the Representa-
tive and Senatorial Halls, and each
member was supplied with a large
bundle containing, pens, paper, ink,
pencils, blotters, erasers, scissors and
scribbling pads. Each Member was
also presented with free pass to the
Fairlamb cigar counter in the rotun-
da of the Capitol, where he was en-
titled to purchase any of their goods,
at regular prices.
Ob'h~Aoh SouhVg iCi
Republican majority this year was al
80 small, compared with that of some
members with seats adjoining No 172.
The three men directly in front are G..
II. Kline, of Allegheny county, with
1900 majority, Jas. F. Woodward, al
80 of Allegheny county, with 10000
majority and Frank Craven, of Wash
ington county with 5000 majority,
while the man at our right is Mr..
Adolph Edlis, of Pittsburg, who had
5000 majority. The only consolation
is that the two members from Wayne
county, who sit directly behind us,
only had 400 majority. Of course
these are all Republican majorities.
The fifteen lone Democrats sit in a
bunch up front, where the Speaker can
look over their heads and pretend he
does not know they are there, but they
no doubt will give an account of them
selves and will receive nothing but
goodwill from the other members.
Please remember that Room 112, at
the Lochiel Hotel, is always open to
Cameron county visitors.
Yours Truly,
JOSIAH HOWARD.

Divide Musin, Jan. Pa 1908

In offering to its patrons Divide
Musin the celebrated Belgium Violin
ist, and his company of artists the
management of the Peoples Star
Course, believes it has an attraction of
absolutely unsurpassed merit and one
that will please and entertain in an un-
usual degree.
The name of Divide Musin is q
synonym for all that is perfect in the
art of violin playing, and his return to
this country for a concert tour last
season, after an absence ofeight seasons
was heralded with delight by all music
lovers AT the age of twelve years he
won the first prize at the Conservatory
OF Llege, but remained a few years
longer, studying harmony, chamber
music and conducting, in order to OBJ
tain the Golden Medal. This he did in
his fifteenth year. He had, however.
concertized between times, was great
faVorite of the celebrated master,
Leonard, and was taken by him TO
Paris. This same winter Wieniawski,
the great virtuso, was booked for n
concert tour, was taken i'll, and after
one trial the manager engaged young
Musin to take Wieniawskis place.
This brought him into prominence,
and he was called upon to play before
all the crowned heads of Europe, and
was feted, petted, and loaded down
with costly presents, and decorated.
Then he came to America. and again
he conquered. 1t is now eight years
since he has been heard here, and in
that time he has been around the
world twice. He was persuaded to ac.
cept the position of head of the violin
department of the Royal Conservatory
and he comes to the United States for
a short tour of eleven weeks by per-
mission of His Majesty, the King Of
Belgium. For the coming season
Musin will have a very attractive
company, including Grace Whistler
Misick, prima donna contralto, Mar
ion Green, the American basso can
tante, and Guillame Koenig, the bril-
liant young concert pianist from Bel
GUM. The success of both Mr.. Green
and Koenig last season was so pro-
nounced that they vera Immediately
re-engaged for the coming sea-
son. Reserved seats at Lloyd's.

The testimony above, coming from a
competent and reliable source, ought
to be weighed thoroughly by every one
who really wishes to form an honest
judgment regarding the practical re-
suits of the Subway" experiment 1t

final demonstration of the success of
the experiment, but it certainly seems
to indicate probability that the hope
of its managers may be justified
