SIG DANCE
White Pass Club to Cele-
 brate Thanksgiving

Extensive preparations are now under way for one of the most elabo- rate dances ever given at the White Pass Athletic Club. The nature of the dance will be strictly HARD TIMES" and every one is urged to dress in .har- mcny with the occasion. There will be two prizes, one lady's and one gentle mans, for the best comic hard times costume. These prizes may be seen at Britt's drug store. There will also be hard times eatables and coffee pre- pared "just like mother used to make them" by some of the most prominent ladies in Skagway. They will be serv- ed iu a novel way in the front room of the club. The ball room will be ap- propriately decorated by a committee that has been appointed expressly for that purpose, and the music will be the very best obtaiuable, consisting of six pieces including the trap drum. The price of admission to gentlemen will be one dollar, and a very moderate charge will be made for the refreshments.
 While the object in giving this dance is to offer a genuine good time to everybody attending, there is also an' other canse--namely to help meet some of the heavy expenses incurred in the recent additions and improvements to the club building. A fifteen foot ad- dition has just been added, and the building painted inside ard out. What was formerly the little reading room in the front part of the building. has been converted into a card and smoking room, having been painted, papered, carpeted and completely furnished for this purpose. A new and much larger reading room, finely lighted and ven tilsted, is now in use up stairs in the rear part of the building, thus giving the members a splendel view ot the bay. A new tobasco hot water heater has been installed which keeps the water boiling day and night. A costly steam heat system has been installed also. All these improvements have been more or less expensive to the club, and have required, incidentally, considerable thought aud planning by the executive committee which has so ably handled this matter. As the White Pass Club is an institution of mutual benefit to the community at large, and offers so much to it's memb- CTS for 8 small amount in dues, the committee feels. that this etTory to better it's finances will meet with the hearty cooperation of the citizens of Sksgway.

The Portland OreGonion has row on its hands. IL recently said that the biblical estimate of the age of the world is DO longer accepted by any one as correct, and many of the preacher folk among It's readers are calling it down. They claim that there has been nothing discovered by scientists to prove that Mother Earth is not yet the glddy young thing that Moses and others thought it was, The Oregonian was really wrong in using the word everybody. There are even some people who do DO believe the world is round.

The republican triumph iu Ohio, un

The republican triumph in Ohio, un- der the leadership of Senator Forsker, has embroidered the old Ohio machine 70 look upon Senator Foraker as the logical candidate for president in 1908. It is predicted by Ohio papers that are not friendly to Forsker that he will have the Ohio delegation in the next national republican convention. In justification of this conclusion the vic tory of the old Quay ring in Pennsyl- vsnia and the practical defeat of 'he Roosevelt controlled republicans Of New York are pointed to as indicsti- ons that the people are getting tired of Rooseveltism and are returningI to the "sSie and sane" ideas and Ideals Of the old Mckinley days.

"Goldsmith's Auburn is paralleled
in San Diego county. for the mining
town of Hedges is now a deserted
city" says Gus Suechting of st. Louis,
just back from a visit to San Diego.
Hedges could hardly have been
called the 'loveiest village of the
plain for it was located I'm the heart
of the Colorado desert, fifteen miles
northwest OF Fort Yuma, yet It was
lovely in the eyes of mining men, being
the seat OF the Free Gold Mining COM
pany.
"At a meeting OF the board of super
vsors the consolidation of the school
districts of Hedges and Pichaco, rec
commended by County School Superin-
tendent Hugh j. Baldwin. was effected,
and hereafter the joint district will be
known as Pichaco.

Second Payment Made "

The Magistral Mining syndicate of
Los Angeles, owners of the Magistral
copper mine in the Etzatlan district,
Mexico, has made second payment on
the property. There now remains but
one payment. and this will not fall due
until next July. The mine was sold
to the Magistral syndicate last year by
W. NJ Mathews for $4,000 gold. Dr..
M. NJ Graves represents the Los An
geles syndicate.
The Magistral mine is now being
worked with good success. Ore to the
amount of 100 tons was sold recently
to the Etzatlan smelter, and there is
considerable ore on the dump at this
time. The ore runs from to per cent
copper, with silver and gold values. A
new tunnel is being driven at consid-
cradle depth below the old workings.
Nuggets of News
The value OF the copper produced in
the United States in 1905 was $137, ,49S,-
727, as compared with 1O5,629,S45 in
1904
Reports from the San Dimas district
of Durango are to the effect that labor
there is very scarce Miners there now
are getting unusually high wages, drill
ers making as high as 81 per day and
common laborers about $40 per week.
Just across the line in Sinaloa the scale
of wages is much lower and efforts
will be made to import men from that
state.
A company has been formed in Lon
don for the purpose of acquiring the
large salt deposits which exist round
the lagoons, near Palomas, on the high
table land of Mexico in the state of San
Luis Potosi. There are sixteen deposits,
only six being worked known under the
name of Salinas de Penon Blanco. The
property, consisting of more than 100,-
acres. has been taken over from the
owner, who lives, in Paris. The Eng
llsh company referred to has been or
ganized with a capital of 325, 900 pounds
The following are the directors: Colonel
