Fair Notes.

Remember the date, Nov. 12th to 17th, 1906.
 A word to exhibitors! On page 19, section 5, of the premium list, notice is given that entries will positively close Monday, Nov. 5th, one week be- fore the fair opens. That means all entry blanks must be filed with the Secretary by that time. One week will be given to make up all the rec ords of the different entries.
 Exhibits can be brought to the grounds any time after Friday, Nov. 9th, and up to Monday, Nov. 12th.
 Remember these facts You can assist the management in complying with these rules, as it takes great deal of work to make up the different records, and it is impossible to make these records and receive entries at the same time.
 Remember then, that no entries will be received by the secretary after November 9th.
 Are you going to exhibit something? In this friendly contest everybody should participate. It not only puts you Ion your mettle" to do your best, but others may receive valuable hints and suggestions from it. Comparisons show superiority, and make each one strive to do the best.

Responsibility of Mining Engineers

It is not uncommon to employ ire sponsible engineers to report on pro- ject which is to be promoted, or to place on the directorate of such con- panies men who are not familiar with mining and who are accordingly irre- sponsible as to the acts of the com pany. Among the progressive steps taken by the Ontario legislature this year for the government of the ex- ceedingly rich mineral finds now known to exist here, was the adoption of law relative to the responsibility of officers and employees of companies. Referring to the making of false state ,nents the act reads: eff any person, in any return, report, certificate, bal ance sheet or other document, wilfully in any particular, knowing it to be false, he shall be guilty of a misde- meanor, and shall be liable on convic- tion to imprisonment for a term of not exceeding two years, with or without hard labor, or to fine of 5OO$, or both" The spirit of the act is the same as will be at the bottom of the deliberations of the legislative com mittee of the American Mining Con- gress.-Mining Reporter.

George Miller, who was at Yucca for supplies last Saturday, informed the MINER that he had made search for Mir. Shackleford, but that no trace of the missing man could be found. Shackleford disappeared from Bill Williams Fork several months ago and it is supposed he perished on the des- ert. His trail led over the desert country as far as Mohave Wash and then back almost to Castenada We'll, where all trace of the man was lost. Another search will be made.

OFFERS OF AID
In Case Of Revolt Against Cuba In
the Isle of Pines.


Washington, May 2-According to
a statement by S. H. Pearcy, large
landowner in the Isle of Pines, a revolt
against Cuban authority in that island
will occur in the near future unless
the United States resumes control
over it. Mr.. Pearcy and his brother,
j. l.. Pearcy, called at the White
House, but the president refused to
see them and they were referred to
Secretary Root. Mr.. Pearcy declared
that he did not come to Washington
to threaten the president with a revo.
luton in which hundreds of American
lives would be endangered, but simply
TO tell him the facts. He said that
Americans now own nine-tenths OF the
property in the island, which they pur
chased solely on the assurance of Pres
ident Mckinley and the war depart
ment that the island was American
soil. Conditions, he says, however,
are at critical stage, and the major
ity of the Americans have stated they
will stand their oppression no longer.
Mr.. Pearcy said that these American
citizens have received many offers of
aid from the United States in case of
a revolt

political amnesty will be proclaimed
Sunday, May 81. the anniversary of
the coronation of Emperor Nicholas.
The exact scope of the royal meas
ure has not as yet been determined.
1t will, as anticipated, be limited, but
it is stated that the Constitutional
Democratic party is prepared though
grudgingly, to accept the act of grace
from which terrorists are excluded,
recognizing, though not publicly, that
the government is not altogether un-
justified in refusing to set at large
men who will be as ready in the future
as they have been in the past to shoot
down or blow to pieces hated repre-
sentatives of authority Their demand
for unlimited amnesty was based on
the expectation that, with the insttu-
tion of a full constitutional era. the
terrorists, as was promised in an open
letter just before the assassination OF
Alexander III, would abandon active
operations, but they have been forced
to admit that the crimes of the last
few days give the government no
guarantee that the promise will be
kept. The ministry is daily cutting
down the number of prisoners who
may be affected by the amnesty, re-
leasing convicts by hundreds in the
provinces, while among those released
