has there been shown So much activity
as now. This should prove a period
of prosperity for machinery manufac
turers engaged in the export trade.
The production of gold in the foul
months ending with April amounted
to 1,719,272 fine ounces. which compar
ed with 1.532.O5S ounces in the cor
responding period of last year, shows
an increase of 1924 ounces, or ovel
IL per cent. The previous high rec
ord was before the war, in 1899, when
the output for a like four months ag
gregated 1895 .669 ounces. This amour,
however is 23.6O3 ounces less than
1906. indicating that this year will
probably establish a new high record
In the full year 1905 the gold out
put was 4,S97.221 ounces, as against
3,771,672 ounces in 1904, and 4.O65, 49,
ounces in 1899.

The card system. which is still be

Operators association of Cripple
Creek. Colorado. an outgrowth of the
troubles between the mine owners and
the unions two years ago, is meeting
with some disfavor on the part Of bus

the general interests of the district
says the Mining World. Under the
card system no miner can obtain worl
without card from the association
While the cards are freely issued, they
yet serve as a threat over the work

GRIDIRON NOTES.

Ralph 5. Kent. center CT the Cornell
eleven in 1903 AID 1904. has been engaged
70 coach the ithaca freshmen.
The new rules have placed a premium
on vigilance and speed. The smaller
teams are no longer awed by the bulk of
their adversaries.
In their early games the Michigan
eleven usually pile uD scores around the
100 mark. but they were content To let
Case Scientific School, of Cleveland. down
with a Is TO o score in their first game.
Strangely enough, none of the big teams
are questioning the eligibility OF players
of other teams. Usually this is one of
the early STUNTS. A year without grid
iron scandals would be hailed with de-
light.
George Washington shocked Lehigh by
holding the South Bethlehem footballers
10 one touchdown and goal. The local
cOllegians have a lot of beef" in the
line, and if they can get speed and team
work infused into the players. the Buff
and Blue will carry home some fine vic
tories this fall
The Penn State eleven threw a surprise
into the Carlisle Indian wigwem when
they beat the Redskins to 0 in Satur-
days game at Williams2ort. Penn State
is made up Of big and strong country
boys and, while teams of their class have
been easy picking for the Indians in for
mer seasons. they are showing marked
progress in the sport.

Saturday he received a knockout blow
which caused conclusion of the BRAIN
and the young man is in a precarious
condition.
Porter. the left tackle of the Syracuse
University team, is the son of a New
Haven colored barber. In the game at
New Haven. with Yale. the colored tackle
was accidentally put out of commits
sion. A husky son of Eli brought Porter
to the turf with such a thud that the col
ored boy retired with a badly sprained
arm. Yale men a few years ago took an
accidental fall' out of Matthews, the
Harvard colored player
DR.. Joseph Reilly, coach of the George
town eleven, was very much pleased
with the Blue and Gray team In rs first
game Of the season with the Gallaudet
boys as their opponents. Although the
squad has been on the sod only two
weeks, one of which was very warm
and the other rainy and disagreeable,
the progress made is highly creditable
70 men who have not worked together
before this fall. nearly all the members
of the team having been recruited this
year. The team is rather light. but with
the new rules favoring light men and
speedy ones, Coach Reilly hopes to get
a great deal OF good work out of the
Georgetown eleven. "Wednesday after
noon the Georgetown team will line up
against the St SteDhen'S Institute eleven,
which numbers in its line some of the
best local players.
