NO ONE ANXIOUS TO MAKE RUN
Michigan Democrats up in Air for
Gubernatorial Candidates

Detroit, Aug. with but little
idea as to whom they would choose
as their standard bearer against Gov
ernor Warner this fall, the Democrats
of Michigan assembled in state con-
vention in Detroit today Woodbridge
N. Ferris, who was the Democratic
gubernatorial nominee two years ago,
was unanimously chosen again at the
state primary this spring. But Mr..
Ferris declined to make the race, and
as a consequence the party was left up
in the air.
The problem for the convention to
solve is TO select the strongest candi-
date from among the half dozen or
r,ore who are willing to have honor
thrust upon them. The names that ap-
pear most prominently mentioned for
the place are those Of James W.
Helm Of Adrain and Charles II. Kim
merle of Cassopolis. Other aspirants
for the place. any one of whom may
develop sufficient strength in the con-
vention to capture the nomination are
Mayor Stanley r. Parkhil of Owosso.
Thomas f. Barkwith of Jackson, and
John f. Bible Of Ionia. The name Of
Mayor Rush Culver of Marquette is
suggested for lieutenant governor. The
makeup Of the remainder of the ticket
is problematical as there appear to
be a few aspirants for the place. A
majority of the delegates and party
posed toward the Bryan movement.
and it is probable that this sentiment
viii be embodied in the convention
resolutions.

Carpet Cleaning

The following method OF cleaning

First have the carpet cleansed in the
usual way and tackled down on the
floor where it is to remain permanently

cess. Take one and a half pounds Of
the best white laundry soap. one-hah
pound of white oak bark. three-fourths
of a pound Of borax, one-fourth OF a
pound of fuller's earth, one-half Of a
pint Of good alcohol one-half pint OF
ammonia. one-half ounce of chloroform
and four gallons Of water. Tie up the
bark in a piece Of thin material, and
boil in two gallons of water for four
hours. Keep boiling water at hand
to replace that lost by evaporation.
Now remove the bag. add the soap.

earth, and let simmer until all are dis
solved; then add the other two gallons
OF water, which should be boiling hot.
and when partly cool add the alcohol.

ity will clean thirty yards OF carpet
To clean, dip out cupful of the pre-
paration, put it on the carpet, spread
it, and Grub with an ordinary bristle

BRECKENRIDGE ON.
EVE OF BOOM.

BRECKENRIDGE. Colo, Nov. 2O.-
Transactions in mining properties are
following each other In rapid success
sion in the Breckenridge district In
fact, the camp is on the eve of a boom
that will make It one of the. leading
camps in Colorado. Mining properties
are advancing by leaps and bounds, and
now 1t IS practically impossible to get
hold Of a developed mine. Prospects
Of claims in good territory are bring
ing fancy prices. The activity in this
camp was caused by the Wellington
Mines Company securing the yelling
ton, Orthodox and Oro properties and
consolidating them into one big COM
pany, which win operate a SO0-ton
mill. In order to successfully finance
this big proposition wide publicity was
necessary. This publicity has attract
ed capital from all over the United
States.
Another big deal has Just been con-
summated. giving to "a New York
London syndicate a large tract of
placer ground. 1t is understood the
price paid for this publicity was $780,
600. The quality of the ground and
the broad lines on which the syndicate
company proposes to operate win un-
doubtedly show profits that will at

For the Meal PIanner

For a savory potato dish. slice un-
cooked potatoes very thin, sprinkle
them lightly with minced onion. cover

very tender, adding milk from time to

Here is a variation Of cranberry Jelly;
Take off the stems and wash half a

the water is reduced to a cupful. Then
add a pound Of sugar and a quart OF
cranberries and boil fifteen minutes.
Strain out the skins and seeds and
turn into a mould.
Stuffed figs served with whipped
cream make an excellent dessert. Wash

just before removing from the fire, add

if they get anything, as no

8 The success of the Lanyon Zinc
Company which has been taking out
ore at the rate Of $1,000 per day, the
old Union, the Minnie. the Lucky. the
Jessie and other properties and the
remarkable revelations in the Yelling
ton have caused widespread interest
among mining men of the State. The
to the Breckenridge dis
trict are the richness Of the ores and
the ease With which II is mined, in
surfing large profits above operating
expenses. At the present rate Of out
put the Lanyon Zinc Company will
take out $365,OOO worth of ore per year
from the Country Boy at an expense
of about S12,500 per year.
Twenty-Five TO so per cent zinc ore
in addition TO lead, silver and gold vail
ues makes the lead and zinc mines Of
other fields seem poor by comparison.
In the Missouri and Kansas lead and
zinc fields they mine from 8 to 10 per
cent. ores at a profit, Another feature
that is proving a strong attraction to
the breckenridge camp is the wonder
full increase in gold value as is attain
ed in the lead and zinc mines. Lead
and zinc mines that willsshow no gold
value whatever at the surface carry
good gold values at depth OF 300 and
400 feet. The possibility Of striking
gold bearing zinc ore carrying high
values win induce many operators to
sink shafts hundreds Of feet deeper.
When this is done Breckenridge will be
conceded one Of the leading mining
camps Of the world.

Is She Pleasant

"Rusldn insisted that It was an es-
sential part OF the duty Of a woman to
be a pleasant creature. said a matron
over her afternoon teacup. "but it has
seemed to me lately that the idea with
a good many girls is TO be unpleasant
creatures. How else can you account
for their high voices. and aggressive
personalities their frequent inconsider-
ateDess OF others, not to say downright
selfshness? To be content to be-just
pleasant without the modern frills Of
ambition and higher education and the
loudness that passes so often for
smartness-well, confess 1 find the
thought OF that kind Of creature
very restful."

There IS some excellent material in the
bill which the Garrick presents this
week-good enough TO satisfy the most
critical patron Of vaudeville. Jean Be
dinis' Eleven Crazy Us offer the big COM
edy feature. 1t is just what is claimed
for it-a bunch Of ''bug-house" jugglers.
It. takes an original mind to plan and
stage anything Of this order, and it takes
money to carry out the ideas. Mr. Be
dinis must have both. The act is full Of
fun and keeps one guessing all the while
as to what win happen next It intro
duces a line Of eccentric juggling and
keeps the audience laughing from start
to finish. II promises to be one Of the
big hits of the season at the Garrick.
Charles Bowser, an actor Of sterling
merit, assisted by Nadine Winston. in
Edgar selryn's comedy. Home, Sweet
Home" contributes one Of the most de-
lightful comedy acts that Manager
Dockstader has booked this season. II
Is bright with witty dialogue and amusing
situations and gives both Mr.. Bowser and
Miss Winston good opportunities TO dis
play the talents which they both possess
TO an unusual degree. Tho Quigley Bros,
in a political satire Election Day" keep
their audience laughing and make some
good hits. The Irish voter Is laughably
portrayed, and his Democracy is proved
true to the core. The Casino Comedy

Suicide from Grief.

Denver. - Heartbroken over the
death of her fiance the day before, and
hopeless of the future because she be-
lieved her family had forever turned
her out into the world to earn her own
living, and because she was without
money to continue the struggle for ex-
istence, Alice Croft, daughter of a
ranchman residing near Sullivan, Col
orado, went into rooming house at
1850 Lincoln avenue about ! O'Clock
Thursday afternoon, gave a fictitious
name, took quantity of poison. threw
herself upon the bed Of room she had
engaged, and died alone with her grief.
The sad ending of Alice Croft came
almost on her birthday. In few days
she would have been twenty-four years
old. Her sweetheart. Frank Senter,
passed away Wednesday after suffer-
ing for two weeks from a peculiar case
of nosebleed.
