back in the 1908. He isn't hungry now
adays, and he doesn't have to walk
unless he wants to. He is an expert
on the ups and downs of the wheel
of fortune. Some of his belongings
have been so hard to keep that he
had to stand over them with a shot
gun Occasionally, in attempting to
burn the bridges of adversely behind
him, he has set fire to himself. But,
like the NEUROLOGICAL bird suggested
by his surname, he has mastered the
stunt of rising from his own ashes.
And now, though he has laid away but
a million or so, he begins to hope that
he can keep the wolf from the door.
incidentally, he had no sooner sold
Lou Dillon to the Sullivan crowd than
he bought 10000 shares of stock in
that mine, and tried to buy 10000
more.
Technically, the Lou Dillon is de-
scribed as showing four distinct
lodges, all dipping to the southeast
toward Silver Pick ground, where they
will probably enter at depth. The
our shallow shafts already sunk prove
I'll these veins to be carrying values
One of these shafts, sunk forty-five
eet, yields $lO TO $l4 ton across
seven-foot vein and another sunk sew
enty feet, has struck ore which as
7ayed at $2S. The corporation form
ed for the special working of this
property will be known as the Lou
Dillon Goldfield Mining company, of
which the president will be the Gov
ernor of Nevada, John Sparks, and
the treasurer l.. M. Sullivan.

MORE AURIFERoUs EXCITEMENT.

Goldfield, Nevada, Oct. S.-Another
wave of auriferous excitement swept
over this community yesterday when it
was first publicly announced that the
Lou Dillon claim, long regarded as a
potential Golconda among mines, had
been sold by it's original owner to
a group of men who have already
arranged for it's thorough exploitation
The effect of this piece of news,
among the people here on the ground,
was surprising. Apparently, though
all the promising attributes of the
Lou Dillon have been matters of com
mon knowledge for a long time no
body had thought there was any cause
for being excited over them until their
definite uncovering was booked for a
definite day and date. And now, Lou
Dillon Isl an epidemic.
The reason for the situation thus de-
veloped is plain as print. The Lou
Dillon claim lies snuggled in a YER
liable nest of bouncing bonanzas.
Smack up against it to the east is
the Silver Pick a baby mine with a
figurative gold spoon in one figurative
hand and gold rattle in the other.
Smack up against the Silver Pick is
the Mohawk, synonym for short cut
to automobiles and yachts. Smack up
against the Mohawk is the Jumbo, a
golden egg-laying goose with an ele-
plants name. Directly north of the
Jumbo is the Red Top, which means
ready money. And hugging the Lou
Dillon on the south are the Combi-
nation and January mines, steady SYM
bols of prosperity.
A seat in this lap of luxury is not
the only thing, however, that makes
the purchasable bulk of Lou Dillon
stock seem likely to melt like a snow
ball in Death Valley. A beggar is
only a beggar, though he clasps the
hand of a king And a cook may sleep
in kings palace. But the Lou Dill
Ion, according to the full chorus of
prophets, is neither beggar nor cook.
1t is a gold mine among gold mines,
gold mine that gives it's gold for the
scratch of a pick. Its surface runs
from Sc to So ton, which is better
surface showing than the Mohawk
made. A ton of ore from the Mo.
hawk shafts today yields gold to the
tune of 5000. Mohawk stock could be
bought for ten cents a share, less than
a year ago. Now it brings 81. Lou
Dillon's new owners have commits

down to the bottom of things, such
are the arguments, with logical deduc.

CHURCH RIOT
ENDS FATALLY
ONE MAN KILLED AND SEVERAL
OTHERS INJURED
Crowd Of Angry Lithuanlans Attacks
House Of Priest in Chicago, Fol-
lowing Dssension During
Service
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Feb. 11.-An attack by a
crowd of angry Lithuanians today upon
the residence Of the Rev. Edward Sta
fanowicz, a Catholic priest, resulted in
the fatal shooting of one man and the
serious injury of a number of others.
The assailants were all members of
the church over which the Rev. Father
Stafanowicz presided. Dissension
among the members of the congrega-
tion over the control of the church
funds eliminated in violence during
the service.
Women are said to have opened hos
tilities by hurting a missile at the pas
tor. Pursued by the worshipers, the
priest retreated to his residence. There
he was besieged for more than an hour
in spite Of efforts of a squad of police
which was hurried to the scene. The
police repeatedly charged the attackers,
who had armed themselves with clubs
and stones, and only succeeded in dis
persing them by firing into the crowd.
John Tammalis, a member of the
congregation, was shot in the left
groin and was fatally injured. Alex
Bargas. another of the attacking party,
received asbullet in the head. Aiscore
of others were injured by flying bricks
and, stones. Fifteen Of the ringleaders
were arrested.

Experts viii Examine Into the Rela-

Control Both in the United States
and Abroad
By Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Milo r. Malt
bic, one Of the expert members of the
public ownership commission of the
National Civic federation, which is
organized 10 examine into the relative
merits Of municipal and private own
crship of quasi public utilities in this
country and abroad, sailed for London
yesterday on the steamer Minneapolis
to make arrangements for the visit of
the entire commission to England i'll
May. The commission has completed
all of its plans and has actively begun
the work of investigation in this coun-
try. AS the commission Is composed
of men representing different views on
the subject of municipal ownership
and operation, two sets of engineers,
accountants and other experts have
been ordered, one of which is inclined
toward public ownership and operation
and the other toward private control
In that way only, the commission de-
termined could all the facts for and
against municipal ownership and ope-
ration be brought out and a report Sc
cured that would have appreciable
value.
Expert accountants this week will
begin work on the accounts of munich
Pal SdS pants OI w IlSSlllB, w. V d.,
and the municipal electric light works
of Allepheny, Pa. A. E. Forestall of
New York city and l.. L. Merrifield of
Toronto will investigate the gas works
of Wheeling. Dabney Maurice of Pc
oria, ILL.,, will also begin a study of the
Chicago water works and Prof. John H.
Gray of the Northern university will
begin a study of the social and political
conditions in connection with the quasi
public undertakings in Chicago, New
York city, Philadelphia, Boston and
other large cities.
Speaking Of the work of the commits
sion in Great Britain, Mr.. Maltbie said
before sailing:
THE commission has selected Eng
land as the country in which to begin
the work of investigation abroad for
the reason that conditions there are
more like those in the United States
than any other foreign country
THE purpose of the investigation is
merely to find IN what respect each
system has been satisfactory and to
leave the decision for or against muni-
equalization to the people directly con-
cerned."

PREPARING FOR WAR
United States Government Alive to
the impending Peril

Special to The Herald.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 11.-There Is
no attempt whatever in government
circles to minimize the seriousness of
the Chinese situation, but at the same
time 1t Is held by most officials that
the outbreak is not actually imminent.
Some are certain it is to come, others
believe that if at all the outbreak will
rot occur before another six months
or a year has passed.
Mail reports have come regularly to
the state department from diplomatic
and consular officers throughout the
Chinese empire. They show varying
degrees of danger. In the meantime
the war department. is actively making
preparations for trouble in China.
1l is maintained that such meas
ureS as have been taken, which include
the sending of two more regiments OF
infantry and two batteries of field ar
tillery to the Philippines, are precau--
tionary in character only, and that the
administration does not intend to be
caught in an embarrassing situa ton
in the event of actual and serious diff
ficulties.
The additional regiments in the Phil
ippines will give this government a
strong force there. Whether this force
will be enough will depend upon
further developments. In the event
reports are received Indicating the
coming uprising is imminent further
measures will be taken, involving the
sending of more troops. This may be
done anyhow.
1t has been suggested by some army
officers that the Philippine scouts, the
local military organizations of the
Philippines made up of natives and
officered by Americans, be used in
China If there is trouble. Those who
favor this scheme hold that the scouts
would fight we'll against the Chinese
and they could stand the conditions

ST. PAUL, Feb. 11.-Efforts which
the congregation of the St. James Afri-
making for several weeks to GUST their
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Seymour, eliminated
in a riot during the services this
morning, during which Rev. Mr.. Sey-
mour planted his fist in the eye Of
Trustee r. C. Minor, knocking him
down. and was himself sent to the
floor in front of the altar by Trustee
Robert Lowe. A free-for-all fight was
prevented by the arrival of a patrol
wagon full of policemen who had been
called when the row started.
The trustees of the church recently
voted to reduce Rev. Mr.. Seymour's
salary from $50 to $40 month, but not
withstanding this Rev. Mr.. Seymour
had refused to give up his church. This
morning after preaching a sermon on
"Brotherly Love-" Seymour announced
the collection. Two of the insurgent
trustees came forward to take up the
collection, but Rev. Mr.. Seymour
called vociferously upon two of the
stewards faithful to him to gather up
the Offering. The congregation by this
time was filing before the contribu-
tion boxes. seymour stood guard over
one, but two unfriendly black trustees
held the other boxes.
Seymour attempted to take charge
of one of these boxes, when r. G.
Minor trustee, who was holding 1t,
objected. Rev. Mr.. Seymour promptly
swung his fist to Minors eye and the
latter went down and out.
Robert Love-, who was holding the
other contribution box, Immediately
went after the pastor and felled him
like an OK, before his own altar. By
this time the entire congregation was
in an uproar and taking sides. The
women rushed in between the COM
batants and tried to soothe them, but
1t looked as if a free-for-all fight would
result, when the arrival of the police
and their threats Of wholesale arrests
brought an end to the affair.

TACOMA, Wash, Feb. 11.-Negotia-
tions between the Union Pacific railway
and the st. Paul and Tacoma Lumber
company have been closed whereby the
Hartman interests have acquired
seventy acres of tide lands, forming an
ideal site for railroad terminals and
having a frontage of 1900 feet on the
bay and about 1400 feet OH the Puyal-
lup waterway. The property is the
highest priced land on the tide flats
and cost approximately $1,00o,000. of
which the Union Pacific has paid a
large amount in cash.
In purchasing the property one of the
conditions of the sale is that the Union
Pacific improve it and locate it's ter
minals and shipping warehouses upon
1t within a certain time. officials of the
st. Paul company refuse to state the
exact time limit by which the Union
Pacific is bound but it is understood
to be about twenty months, as they
say that the Union Pacific will be here
sooner than any other transcontinental
line could build to Tacoma, were it to
commence construction work at once.
