SECURES BIG INTEREST.
Salt Lakers Purchase Interest in the
Southern Pacific Mine.


Before his departure for the East Sun
day, G.. X. Rowland stated that he and
w, NJ. Hughes had secured a generous
interest in the Southern Pacific mining
property The Southern Pacific Gold and
Copper Mining and Milling company Is
the name of mining corporation which
owns twelve full claims, situated on the
west side OF the Sierra Madre mountains,
eight miles north Of Ogden These claims
adjon each other. Near the east side
Of the property and running north and
south is large and strong contact vein
which lies between granite and quartZite.
On this property several assure veins
crop out, the main one Of which Will aver
age seventy-hve feet or more In width,
running east and west or at right angles
to the contact. 1t is on the larger one
Of these assures that the greatest amount
OF development work has been done. AT
one point an incline shaft was sunk on
the ore vein which trends In q southerly
direction toward great porphyry dyke,
which runs through the property from
east TO west, and ii is a safe prediction
that the vein, when encountered between
the porphyry and granite will be found
OF large dimensions and the matriX OF
much wealth, The incline above men
toned is down TO q depth OF sixty-four
feet.
At that point. on account OF the inflow
Of water, the work Of sinking further was
suspended and a tunnel started to inter-
sect the vein and depth and lncldently to
take care of all the water that might
be encountered The tunnel is In now
distance OF over $50 feet, and while a
number OF feet, perhaps thirty. Will yet
have TO be run to reach the vein proper.
and which 1t Will do at depth OF over
$50 feet. Rich ore Is already coming In
and the face of the tunnel Is all in ore
formation. 1t is these sort Of conditions
which makes mining fascinating and as
certain OF results as mathematical ac-
curacy. The ore In the bottom of the
shaft is very rich in copper, some of 1t
running as high as 70 per cent to the
ton, while In places at or near the sur
face the gold found runs up to $26.
In running the incline the ore increased
in width as 1t appreciated in value, un-
til at the bottom the vein in places be-
tween well-defned walls is four feet
wide.

A Transparent Fiction.

The late Clarence H. Clark of Phil
,adelphia had one of the finest private
libraries in the world. Mr.. Clark was
an authority on incunabula and on
first editions
A Philadelphia auctioneer once SUBJ
nritted to Mr.. Clark a copy of Dickens
Little Dorrit" The auctioneer said
that the owner of the book claimed
that it was a first edition, and he
wished to know if the man spoke the
truth.
Mr.. Clark examined the work. Then
with smile he said:
1.-THE owner spoke the truth to the
same extent as a friend of mine once
did on his honeymoon.
*'Starting with his bride on the hon.
eymoon my friend entered railway
office, and, as always in the past,
bought only one ticket.
1.-THE bride noticed the oversight at
once.
"*Why, you only bought one ticket,
DEAR she said.
"*By Jove!' the fellow ansW red.
I forgot all about myself "

No Longer the Thing to sit at Table
Long Hours Over a
Heavy Meal

Every year in New York introduces
some social novelty. The innovation
attracts attention for awhile, then be-
comes a matter of course. TWO years
ago hosts ceased to ask their guests
long in advance Three or four days
began to be thought sufficient, where
formerly almost as many weeks were
considered indispensable. Now invita-
tons at short notice are expected.
The most noticeable social novelty
of the present season has been the
short dinners. Bridge brought them
in. They survive now even when they
are not curtailed for the sake OF the
game.
| 1.-The long dinners used to be very
the other day, 'but it looks now as
if we had run to the other extreme.
Dinners are so hurried that there is
time neither for food nor for cOnversa
ton.
Il saw dinner served last winter
so quickly that the women left the
table exactly As minutes after they
had sat down in spite OF the eight
courses. That celebrity was all tight.
There was a variety show coming On
after dinner, and we got started at
about 1920 There was more supper
at IL, and we got home in good sea-
son.
Dinners are hurried now when there
is nothing to follow. / saw four men
serve dinner for IL persons the other
night, and do it SO quickly there was
scarcely time to nibble at the courses,
and there was no chance to get start
ed on any subject. I don't believe We
could have been half an. hour at the
table. The coffee was of course served
in the drawing-room. That gave us
almost two weary hours, as it was
too early for anybody to go home
There are other causes than bridge
for the popularity OF the short dinner
to-day. Women who 60 out great
deal look upon dinners as the stiffest
of entertainments, because they must
sit still and confine themselves to only
two mems conversation. After awhile
dinners grow very wearisome to those
persons accustomed to so many of
them, and the shorter they can be
made the better for them.

Mark Twain on Advertisinq.

Mark Twain, in the midst Of a pane
gyrinc on advertising, told a remark
able story.
There was a man. he said, back
Iowa way, who was SO pleased with
an advertisement in the local paper
that he wrote the following testlmo-
NAL letter to the editor:
Mr.. Editor. Sir:-After selling
all I could, giving barrels away, and
stuffing my hogs till they would eat
no more, still had, last fall, about
200 tons of big, juicy. ine-favored ap-
pies left on my hands. l inserted in
your valuable paper an ad. that I was
willing to send free barrel of picked
fruit. freight paid in advance by me,
to any one who would apply, there
being, of course, no charge for the
barrel You will hardly credit it, but
that little accent ad. cleared out my
whole stock of apples, and could
have disposed Of five times the guam

One of the >strangest cargoes q yes
sci could possibly have was unloaded
at the London docks toward the close
of March. It consisted OF several
sacks filled with dried flies, consigned
to- large firm Of grain merchants
These flies, originating in Brazil,
have been purchased for use in the
manufacture of food for chickens,
cage birds and the like: They were
caught OH the River Amazon by Bra
zilians, who travel up the river In fiat
bottomed boats, and who are provided
with gauze nets, with which they cap
ture these insects in millions, as flies
hover in dense clouds over many Of
the swampy reaches of the Amazon.
The flies thus caught are killed,
dried in the sun and then placed
in sacks. Upon arrival in London
they are mixed with inlet and other
grain, and are sold as chicken food,
etc. Some time ago the Brazilian gov

Amazon river would be starved, for

the price of this strange commodity,
which used to be Sd. per pound, has
now risen to Is. Cd. per pound and

An old soldier, released from coffee

about it as follows:
Il stuck to coffee for years, although
it knitted me again and again.
about eight years ago Gas a result
of coffee drinking which congested my

attack of nalarial fever.
Il would apparently recover and

peated several times during the year

The Doctor said he had carefully
studied my case, and it was either
cult coffee or die advising me to
take Postum in it's place. had al
ways thought coffee one of my dearest
friends, especially when sick, and I
was very much taken back by the Doc
tors decision, for I hadn't suspected
the coffee I drank could possibly cause
my troubles.
Il thought it over for few minutes,
and finally told the Doctor l would
make the change. Postum was pro.
cured for me the same day, and made
according to directions; well, I liked
it and stuck to it, and since then
have been new man. The change
