do SO at that time, together with tne
pocket beneath the level, from when
skips may be loaded
One of the secrets of success In MN
ing is in knowing when to quit Some
mines which have made large profits
for their owners have later bankrupted
them because they continued to expend
large sums of money on them after the
orebodies were exhausted.
1t is always good business to develop
sufficient ore to pay for mill before
building it, and it is still better 10
open up enough ore to insure contlnu-
GUS supply for a considerable perioo-
Too often the mill is built before the
mine has enough ore exposed to pay the
freight on the mill.
1t is not necessary that vein should
outcrop the entire length of the clam
to secure the extra-lateral right. 1t is
only necessary that sufficient OF the
vein be exposed to determine its strike.
This is sometimes deceptive, and the
claim is laid out in such manner that
subsequent development shows the
vein to cross a side line and 'one end
line.
The first discovery of gold In the
State of Colorado is said to have been
made at Idaho Springs on Jan. Fl, 1859.
The gold discovery which resulted IN
the stampede of adventures into the
Black Hills of South Dakota was made
in 1875 by half-breed Indian in the
foothills of the Black Hills, many miles
| from any known mines of the present
(day. No development work has ever
been done in the vicinity of the Indian
discovery, and but few men know today
| that the find was not made within the
hills in the region where gold-bearing
veins are known to exist.
Amalgamated plates made of Mpntz
metal do not absorb mercury as much
as copper plates. On the other hand,
the mercury does dissolve a good deal
of the copper and zinc constituting the
Muntz metal. Silver plating is almost
necessity, as it prevents the mercury
from dissolving copper from the plate
and therefore does away with the stains
that are prejudicial to good service.
Muntz metal plates have been used for
many years in the Thames or Hauraki
district of New Zealand, and they are
ESPECIALLY adapted to pyritic ores and
to mills using mine water.
/ The cost of stopping ton of ore de-
ponds upon the size of the orebody, its
hardness. and its let go (gouges OF
not), angle of inclination of the vein OF
deposit, cost of wages and supplies
The stopping OF vein less than one foot
wide may be several dollars per ton
$50 or more-and the stopping of large
mass of ore may be reduced to few
cents per ton. No table showing the
approximate cost of stopping or mining
generally can be compiled, which would
be satisfactory or reliable, except pos
sibly for particular mine where the
conditions were we'll understood ant
established, and the only differentia
factor is the changing width of th'
vein. In some veins portion of tn
ore is separated from the walls by
selvage or gouge, and breaks freel.
from the walls, while in another portion
of the same mine, the ore is frozen
to one or both walls, which increase
the expense of mining. M. & S. Press

SECRETARY 5 PRIVATE CAR H:f.
Vas Attach d To The Local 3.
0. Train THIS Morning.

SO great has been the demand for
| tickets To the Army-Navy game at
Franklin Field, Philadelphia, today,
| that the Pennsylvania Railroad ar
ranged to run fourteen special trains.
ON account of the distances travelled,
there is an unusual demand for the
highest-grade service, including par
| lor and diningscars. This is the lar
gest special Ill1skement of such char
acter that the zStilroad has to handle
i'm the year. 9she Penns ylvania.- car
ried from IL, 600 TO $1,000 people on
its special trains to Philadelphia.
owing to the inability of the Presi-
dent or the Secretary of War TO at
tend the game this year, Assistant
Secretary of War oliver took a party
in a private car, leaving Washington
at 8. 40 this morning. Three train sec
tions left Washington at that time.
Government officers, members of the
diplomatic corps and Congressman,
with their wives and families, attend
ed in great number. The first and sec
ond sections had six parlor cars and
one dining car each, and the third
had, besides the private car for As
sistant Secretary of War oliver. and
his party, six vestibule coaches, one
dining car and the Pullman private
car Rover. All of the Washington
trains went direct to Franklin Field.
The Secretary of the Navy's private
car came from Washington to Annapo'
lis over the Baltimore q Ohio and was
attached to the special train which
left here at $50 o'clock this morning.
on account of the early arrival of
this train the passengers used the
dining cars for luncheon at Franklin
Field. New terminal facilities were
provided especially for the Army
Navy game. Eight new tracks had
been constructed at Franklin Field.
The passengers can reach the overhead
bridge by stairs, so that they did not
have to cross tracks in going to and
from their trains. As soon as spe-
cial arrived upon one of the tracks the
switch behind it was thrown and
locked so that no other train could
follow. Electric lights were swung
over the football terminal, for it
was getting dark when the crowds be-
gan to pour out of the gates after
the game.
In the necessity for dining cars
the travel to and from the Army
Navy game was unique. Every one
of the special express trains was pro-
vided with one or more diners. Doz-
ems of extra cooks and walters were
employed so that the hungry could
be fed without confusion.

The Navy crowd Immediately surged
into the field after their heroes, but
the Navy players made dash for the
clubhouse. The brigade of midship-
men formed behind the Naval Acad-
emy band, but the band was too slow
for them, and they surged ahead with
their big Navy banner and danced "A
war dance around the field. The
crowds stopped in front of the Army
lads and exchanged yell. The Navy
crowd was happy beyond the power of
expression and could hardly realize
that after so many seasons il had at
lalst won victory from its brothers
in arms. The crowd soon surged into
the field and the yellow and gold ban
ners Of the Navy were seen at every
quarter. The Navy lads again stopped
in front of the Army contingent and
cheers were exchanged with the best
possible feeling. Outside Of the Army
partisans the feeling is general that II
was time for Navy victory.

however, and last night and this morn

rather sure to cause kmeeting with
some Annapolitans.
The midshipmen did not come on
the field in body, but arrived sing
ly and were seated when the Army
battalion arrived, led by its band.
The Midshipmen greeted ttheir rivals
with a cheer as the Army battalion
arrived, formed in front Of their
seats and broke ranks.
The Middies were first on the field,
and as, at 1.55 Captain Spencer, with
his warriors behind him trotted out
on the gridiron, they were given a
rousing ovation, first by their own
yelling mates in the North stand and
their general supporters and later by
their friendly opponents across the
sward.
Five minutes latter Army followed
into the arena and was cheered to the
echo. Both teams at once started into
the sharp preliminary practice, while
their supporters yelled themselves
hoarse.

the center OF observation as the coin
was tipped for the play. Army
won the toss and chose the west side,
which gave them the advantage of a

the Navy.
The ball was run back to Army :

once. The ball was blocked and Dague
recovered it, holding it on Army's
80-yard line. Spencer carried the ball
three yards. but Douglass was down

tried, but Stearns recovered the ball
and ran to the Army's 40-yard line.

For a time Funston knocked about
in search of his right calling. He was
a newspaper reporter, and spent time
in government service, going on
botanical excursions to Montana and
Alaska. In both these trips he under
went hardships with the same stoical
endurance that has marked his con

Then the Cuban war reached point
where 1t enlisted the sympathy Of ven
tursome Americans who did not see
fit to wait until the United States gov
eminent got into action, but went
ahead to give what help they could.
Funston corresponded with the Cuban
junta and was awarded commission
as captain of artillery in the Cuban
army.
At first his command consisted of
one gun. But it was not the habit OF
the, little Kansan to be content with
little things.
In eighteen months he was ieuten,
ant colonel and in command of all the
artillery in Gomez's army.
During those eighteen months of
unpaid service with the insurgents his.

shell, he got Mauser bullets through
both his lungs, and spent three months
in jungle hospital where, just to
help his convalescence i bit he con
tracted typhoid fever,
Next a fall from a horse resulted in
an, obstinate abscess, and finally he
was captured by the Spaniards, and
it was only his ability to tell a good
story and stick to it that saved him
from volley against stone wall.
AS it was, the Spaniards thought he

Pershing's rise has leen almost
equally rapid. Nine years ago he was
an obscure instructor in tactics at
West Point. The outbreak of the Span
ish-American war sent his to Santiago.
After the war he was appointed chief
ordnance officer and was then out Of
service for awhile through illness.
Then for a period he was busted
with prosaic department detail, until
in 1900 he was made an sadjutant gen
eral, sent to the Philippines, and
placed in charge of the districts OF
Jolo and Mindanao.
This was Pershing's opportunity.
and he seized it with the speed Of the
true soldier of fortune.
On the island Of Sulu he reigned as
veritable car, and kept the sultan
and his followers in subsection, not
less by his diplomacy than by his mill

When Funston, at the head of his
force, came within eight miles of
Aguinaldo's camp, his men were so
completely done out by their long
march that they were unable to go
further, and sent word to the Filipino
president that he should lend aid.
Aguinaldo, supposing them to be his
newly arrived troops. went in person
with a small body guard to meet his
friends. Then the deception was
abandoned. Funston's men fred into
the body guard of the Filipino leader
and made him prisoner. Aguinaldo
at first raved, but eventually accepted
the situation
Sentimentalists criticized Funston
for the deception he used, but the
fact remains that the little general did

and what he had been sent out to ac-
