Thirty Years

came. known that Frank Eder, aged
thirty years, Of Baltimore, Md, eloped

fourteen years. daughter Of William
A. Pinder, for whom Eder worked
as farm hand. The couple are pre-
sumed to have taken the north bound
express train on the Delaware Rail-
road early this morning and TO have
gone to Baltimore.
The father OF the young girl has
notified the authorities here and else
where and Is making an effort TO trace
the pair. Up TO a late hour today,
however, nothing had been heard OF
them.
Mr.. Pinder the father OF the girl.
is manager for Miss Louise Cummins
LAT her farm "Woodlawn," near
Smyrna, and for several months Eder
had been employed there. He kept
company with the little girl to which
the father objected. Seeing that il

consent to the marriage. the couple dis
appeared.
No preparations had been made for
the elopement and the development

father. Eder came here some time
ago as a soap agent. but soon secured
employment with Pinder.

old, was married two weeks ago to
Miss Nellie Wilson, aged Is years.
and who lived on the adjoining farm.

Mining men are loud in their complaint at the high duty on dynamite and agita- tion for its reduction, is highly probable. The president of the re- public. however, has signed the de- cree, and there is little hope that any concessions will be made for a considerable time.
 Torreon Enterprise: The annual report of Torreon Smelling Con- pany for the year 1904 contains the following information: The yearly profits for 1904 amounting to $629 ,279.50, equal to IS per cent on the capital of s, 500,O00 invest ed. The general meeting declared d dividend of $14 per share and SIP for each share of common n the payable April 30th next. image year 1904 the total to
 smelted was 201,612 tons of ore and huxes. Two more furnaces were added to the plant, and now the Torreon smelter has in con- .stant operation eight furnaces.
 Mexican Herald: It is reported that the best ore that has yet been struck in the Bote mine at Zacate- cas has been found on the eighth 1 level of the mine, which has just been passed, and that the vein is increasing in width and richness as the work descends. The general experience of miners is that there are changes in following the vein down, as we'll as working away | from it, both pay streaks and bar ren places, and this fact, combined l with that demonstrated by the Bote mine and in those other mines which are now being worked at Zacatecas, brings forth the theory that in these formerly rich mines, so many of which are now shut down, there may be consider able ore on the still lower levels which sinking will touch and en- able them to be worked with pro- Ait.
 Mexican Herald: Francisco Cou- ,durier and brother of this city have made petition to the department .of fomento for franchises and con sessions for the establishment in this country of an industry of novel and most interesting char acter. As representatives of the Mexican Aluminium Manufacturing Company, $. A, they state that they are the owners of patent conceded by the Mexican govern ment for the manufacture of fin- ighed articles in aluminium, which patent gives them exclusive privil- eges in this line for the period of twenty years. In order to exploit this patent they have arranged for the establishment of manufacture ing industry in this country. where articles made of aluminium, and more particularly window shutters, I bars for windows, doors, and frame work in general, win $ sdows, beds. cand slabra and furni- ture of various sorts, will be pro- t rduced.
