proven what the new owners antici-
pated, that there was ore beneath the
surface
AS reported in this paper last week,
at the Homesite they have deepened
their shaft to below the glass rock,
finding for their toll three-inch sheet
of galena, and ten inches below in the
opening ten-inch sheet of mixed stuff,
lead, jack and sulphur. The company
is building an engine and boiler house,
and will install steam hoist and COM
pressed air drills this week
The Peacock company, also of this
city, after satisfactory results from
drilling on its lease in Mifflin township,
has force of men at work putting
down large modern shaft, one necessi-
tating quite an outlay.
Probably the Mineral Point mining
company, because of its being the oldest
prospecting company of this place, has
proven up more ground adjacent to the
city than any other The results have
been varied, but the latest, put in on
the Hewitt farm has proven quite ia
vorable.
There is no abatement in the merits
of the Tripoli, where fifty or more men
are employed. AS previously stated
there is no mine better equipped than
the Tripoli
At the Hazel Patch they have been
busy the last week or two charging
the main shaft and putting in landings.
This job is now completed and work on
the bodies of jack above and below the
glass rock resumed. AT present there's
about car load of cob jack on the
dump
Rapid progress is being made at the
Brown mine under the able manage
ment of VIM. Vickerman. The mill
will be built within sixty days by the
Galena Iron Works, and when placed
the plant will be up to date in every
particular. 1t is estimated that there
will be from five to six hundred tons of
milling ore ready for the mill, and
everything indicates paying mine
from the start.
On Tuesday Of this week the Hamlyn
Bros moved drilling machine out to
their farm where they are prospecting.
I
They already have shaft put down.
The Liverpool has uncovered suf-
fcient bodies Of ore to cause the owners
to put in a mill.
The Lille and Easy Money mines,
| both within the first ward, are holding
their own as to merit.
Last week the Great Eastern COM
pany, composed Of fifty, mainly all Of
this city, was organized and will be in
corporated for SO, 900. 1t will operate
on land owned by Walter Hnmbert in
Waidwick from which grand specimens
of pure lead weighing lao pounds or more
have been brought to this city.
Another company recently organized
by citizens Of this place is TO be known
as the Mineral Point & Calamine min
ing company. They propose to purchase
an outfit and proceed at once testing
lands leased in the vicinity of Calamine.

It would be very remarkable if af- ter all the light that has been made of 1t we were really confronted with the Japanese problem at this early day. None of the departments at Washington are willing to admit they take the situation seriously. but there is unquestionably a cloud on the horizon that may develop into a storm. For some time past the con- suls of the United States have been supplying the department of com- merce and labor with information as to Japanese commercial progress and her political course in Manchuria and Korea, in virtue of which the Japs are quietly shutting out the rest Of the world. Some Of these political suggestions. inadvertently or other wise. got into print, and there were more important documents which they did not get into print but showed conclusiveIy that there was a strong anti-foreign. though perhaps not exclusively anti-American. senti- meut Tn the island Kingdom.

grimace, and then again MT Lilley's press agent Is the business man of
 the Republican, and he also is the distributor of the Lilley barrel, for which work he asks 15 per. But
 laying all these things aside, there is
 no good reason why MT Donahue
 should not aspire to congressional
 honors. and there has been nothing
 shown thus far which would lead
 even a disinterested observer to be- lieve that he would not make as least l as good a Connecticut representative at Washington as does MT Lilley. He
 has the ability and he has the back
 ing of the democratic party. He will
 be elected, too, if the men whose 1 representative he is and has been,
 vote as they should. The American
 in its advocacy of MT Lilley makes little of the talk about fixing the Congressional Record. and yet it is pretty generally understood that the Record is a good deal of farce and that a member of congress can have printed in it almost anything that he wishes, even speeches that were never spoke" and why not votes that
 were never voted? The Congression- al Record is good for just one thing, said well known Connecticut jour nalist; it keeps number of print CTS busy. Congressman Lilley tries to make capital out of his vote on the railroad question in the state legis- lature, and his organ screams with anger at the thought of anyone ques- tioning his vote on that memorable railroad battle. Even if MT Donahue voted as Lilley and his friends say he did 1t does. not make him out much of corporation man. Per haps he thought it better to trust the corporation he knew to be hon. est, and which was doing much for the public than to cast his lot with corporation that he knew nothing about, so long as either of them were to have the pudding. It is laughable indeed to hear "our own congress man" say that he is more of work ingman than Mir Donahue. Perhaps the laboring men of Connecticut think differently, and will show this by their votes one week from to-day If they do not stand back of the Hon Charles F. Donahue on November 6, and elect him to congress, they de- serve all that the meat trust and the other combinations may have in store for them.

DEATH OF A BUSY BOY.
Jakey Kaplan. Immigrant. Makes

New York. Oct 30.-Over at 253 Graham avenue, Brooklyn. an aged father and mother. two sisters and brother are bewailing the death of Jakey Kaplan. as he was familiarity known to pretty nearly all in the
 Brownsville section. He died on Saturday. About five years ago he left the province of Courtland in Rus sia. taking passage to America with
 no other asset than a little red bun dle and an abundance of energy and ambition.
 He did not know a word of Eng
 fish when he landed at Ellis Island. The Hebrew Aid society released him and gave him A small sum of money.
 With that he bought basket and a
 small stock of shoestrings, collar but tons and other notions. and thus equipped he started a successful bus iness career. Within year he had saved enough to bring his old father and mother. two sisters. and brother
 70 this country. When they came
 he rented a house at 253 Graham
 avenue. Brooklyn. and it took every cent he had left to meet the first
 months rent. After that all the members of the family worked at something and in few months the shop into which he had turned part
 of the house was the storehOlse for a considerable stock of dry goods
 and notions. from which hls push cart and his brothers were supplied. Business prosDerei and friend of
 the family told q reporter that the
 family orned sIe.aA in real estate and other assets All this IakeT had
 done by the time he was 21. but the hard work told on his strength. and
 typhoid pneumonia took fatal hold on him. ending In his death on satur- day. The funeral was hsli from the little dwelling Sundsx afternoon at 7.3s and both before and sfter tb- hour there was a stesdv stream of I friends and seausints1ces. y0unE and old vko vent to pay thsir last trfhuss Co his memory.

The American and Republican are unanimous in favor of the election of George L. Lilley to congress. even if they are not agreed on the number of little 25 cent" ads that each car ries h it's columns.

No man, says William ]. Bryan, who is financially connected with a corporation that is seeking privi- leges ought to act as a member of a political organization, because he can not represent his corporation and the people at the same time. He cannot serve the party while he is seeking to promote the financial interests of the corporation with which he is connected.

work started on the Imperial canal
system. About ten miles of the chan
mel of the Alamo river were dredged
and connection made with a series OF
waterways extending owe an area
embracing 1901 900 acres; a portion Of
the irrigated territory in Mexico, the
remainder in southern California.
The Southern Pacific railroad con
structed q branch road into the irri.
gated territory, and numbers OF peo-
pie, tempted by the variety and extent
of the crops, made settlement mere.
About II, 1000 persons now dwell In the
villages and on the irrigated farms.
An article in the Scientific Ameri-
can gives the cause of the apparent
ly mysterious diverting OF the Colo
RADIO into the Salton sink. The irri-
cation company found a most dificult
problem in the way Of successful
carrying out Of their work, water be-
ing checked at the head Of the canal
on account Of accumulation OF detrl-
tus; and decided to secure another
supply rather than he put to the enor-
nous expense of dredging the canal.
A few miles below the head OF the
Alamo channel they e~xcavated a
channel and connected IL with the
Colorado river. This work was COM.
pleted In November, 1904, the ditch
excavated was less than a mile in
length and about SO feet wide. But q
food occurred a few weeks after II
was completed, worked its way along
the lower channel of the Alamo to
the Salton sink, into which il Is still
flowing. What was but a mere ditch
has become greatly enlarged, we find
nearly all the water Of the Colorado
being diverted from the Gulf OF Mexi-
co, the river bed 10 the gulf prao-
tically dry save at food time, and the
great volume Of water following a
northwesterly course to the Salton
sink. AS yet the Southern Pacific 10
the worst sufferer from the inunda-
ton, has been compelled to change
the location Of its roadbed, rebuild
over 40 miles OF track.
Two Intellectual pans ave been
tried for turning the water from its
present course, there are now in
progress of construction two massive
barriers which il is expected will.
with the food aiding in removing the
deposits that have piled up in the Tor.
mel riverbed, permanently keep the
Colorado to its original course.

time a portion of the desert was the
basin OF a fresh water lake, in recent
times foodings from the COLORADO
river have produced a temporary
shallow lake known as the Salton
sea.
The part of the desert that is be-
low sea level is called the Salton
sink. In the past six months a great
change has taken pace here, the
water turning from channels long fol.
lowed which lead into the Gulf Of
California and ioIlUwing a e course
leading to the Salton sea, inundating
the Salton basin. A correspondent OF
the New York Herald, writing from
Yuma, Arizona, tells Of a most ex-
citing trip recently taken by boat
over a large part Of the Colorado
desert-a strange voyage indeed!
The writer speaks OF the interest the
desert region has long had for him
and adds: Most interesting OF all at
the present moment was the Salton
sea.
Its rapid rise; its flooding of the
main line of the Southern PACING rail-
way, necessitating the building OF
some 40 miles or so Of new track upon
higher ground; the fears expressed
by some OF the settlers near Mecca
and in the Imperial valley that ere
long they would be swamped out OF
existence; the wild and fantastic the
cries %propounded by the thoughtless
and sensational TO account for the
existence Of the sea, as for instance
il was caused by a subterranean III
flow from the Pacific ocean the TACT
that the whole Colorado river was
pouring into II and that desperate
efforts had been made and still were
being made to check the mad flow;
the equally interesting fact that, many
years ago. Or. J. =. Widney, who af-
terward became the president OF the
University OF southern California,
strongly advocated the national gov
ernment's doing what is nov being
so strangely accomplished; the fears
expressed that the growth Of the sea
would change for the worse the eli
mate of the Salton basin-these and
many o,her considerations determined
