RICH STRIKES
At SIGNAL HILL
OUTLOOK FOR DISTRICT SAID
TO BE BRIGHT
j. F. Main Says That Several of the
Mines Promise Big Returns to
Their Owners in the
Near Future

]. T. Main and Fred Rowland of
Pasadena and Los Angeles, respective
ly, are greatly elated over their mines
and mining prospects in the Signal
district in the northern part of San
Bernardino county. Mr.. Main said last
evening:
my partner and I We're the first to
stake out claims in the Signal dis
trict, We prospected there some time
ago and decided there was rich ore in
that section and we quietly staked out
five claims which bear the names of
omer, Western Extension, King Pin,
Yellow Lynx and Blue Bird. They are
about fourteen miles south Of the
Nevada line. We have made no boom
proposition of our mines and claims,
but have quietly worked them at a cost
of about 100000. We have had no
stock for sale and there is none now
in the market nor ever will be while
we have control. This is sufficient, l
think to show our good faith in our
mines We had intended to continue
our work without giving out anything
to the public regarding them, but the
time has come when it is unavoidable.
"There is one little item in the shape
of a blacksmith shop that shows we
mean business. 1t Is built of ore taken
from our mines which weighs twenty
one tons and runs from $40 to $50 a
ton.
Tells of New Strike
at has been some time since we
were up there, but we have just re-
ceived letter from II. p. Ware, post
master at Groffs and district recorder,
confirming our knowledge of the rich
ness of the mines in the new strike
in the Signal district. He writes that
there is large influx Of people to that
district.
"At the Homer mine we have sunk
shaft $50 feet and 800 feet from that
on the same ledge we have another
shaft 125 feet deep. In that block $685.
0C0 is in sight. The ore, sorted for
shipment, gives a mill return Of $114.65
dominating. There are groupings OF
ledge thirty-fve feet above the surface
carrying good value on the tops.
discoveries recently have been made
near Vontrigger Tanks, a station on
the Santa Fe which mean IL the re-
ports are true that another Goldfield
and Manhattan are in existence. Peo-
pie of all classes are flocking into
those mining districts. Those who have
claims are standing guard over them:
New town sites are being staked out
and much excitement prevails. This
country has been quite thoroughly
run over and more or less prospected
for several years and one reason why
the real value has been overlooked
is because copper rather than gold has
been the leading feature. This mis-
taken idea of the values probably
arose from the fact that copper belt
existed, for which half million dol
lars had been refused"

and his only complaint is that the toes

AS the left foot of Bond was ampu-

PATR0LMAN CLUBS A DUMMY
Humphreys Strikes Figure With Club
and Discovers Supposed Rob-
her Is an Advertisement

Throw up your hands" shouted
Patrolman Humphreys early yesterday
morning to figure leaning against the
door of a store at 95S1a South Union
avenue.
The figure did not move.
Humphreys repeated the command
but it had no effect.
With one leap the brave officer land
ed squarely on the back of the figure
and with his revolver struck it a stun
ming blow on the place where the head
of man ought to be.
There was a clatter and the figure
stiff fell to the ground.
1t was a clothing store dummy.
Some practical joker placed the
dummy, which had been left outside a
nearby store, in a doorway and ar
ranged it in the position that a man
would assume when entering the store.
The patrolmen are joking Humphreys
about the affair but they all feel he
did a nervy thing to attack the sup
posed man.

MAY co ROUND
THE WORLD FREE
SOMETHING NEW IN THE WAY
OF SIGHTSEEING
An Educational Journey Is offered to
All Who May Have Desire to
See the Beautiful Sights
of Many Lands

| That anyone can take a trip around
the world without leaving home Is
rather hard to believe at first, but by
a new process of stereoscopic reproduce
lions in the colors of nature recently
perfected it is now entirely possible to
behold scenes from every land as
though actually present.
The idea of stereoscopic views is not
new, but is familiar to all of us from
our childhood days. Almost everyone
can remember the basket Of photo
graphs and the old-fashioned stereo-
scope that adorned the parlor table In
days gone by.
No great advance has been made in
the development of the original scien-
tiflc discovery of reproducing scenes by
the stereoscopic process until very re-
Gently.
A number of improvements nave
been made from time to time in the
stereoscope itself, simplifying the in
strument and making it more conven-
lent for practical use. Stereoscopic
successfully reproduced except by
straight Photographic methods, and of
course Il photograph is in one color
only, unless colored by hand with dyes,
which do not give the picture even
sembance of a natural appearance.
Pictures In Many Colors
A new process has recently been dis
covered whereby stereoscopic views
may be reproduced in the colors of ma
ture. This process, known as the poly
chrome process, meaning many colors,
is a development of Photographic
science and enables large number of
reproductions to be made from each
stereoscopic subject with the added
feature of reproducing the natural
colors of the scene.
This discovery has been the means of
reviving interest in stereoscopic|
subjects as it enables a col
lection of views to be made from
all parts of the globe and repro
duced as nature presents them. Such
views are of great interest to school
children and students as well as the
general run of newspaper readers,
enabling clearer and more concise
study to be made of the different places
of public interest throughout the world
from which news items are being pub
lished daily by the press.
Not only have these views been found
as as aid to newspaper readers
but most successful means of study
in the public schools, as a further in
struction in the combined study of his
tory and geography. The boards of
education in the cities of Cincinnati, |
O., and Council Bluffs, Iowa, have
inaugurated this system with
as it conveys to the young
mind a more direct instruction than is
accomplished by the old method of
books.
