MINES AND MINING.

Walter Doudna, the Clifton paint
er, returned Sunday from a short
trip to Globe, where he attended a
meeting of the Western Federation
of Miners. He reports Globe in a
furnishing condition. 1t is his inten-
ton to quit painting for a while and
will put in the next few months de-
veloping the Gypsy Queen and other
claims in the district.
Drew Underwood, who left Clifton
several weeks ago for the Nevada
mining section, was in Ely last week,
says the Ely Mining Record. Drew
is representing a local mining syndi-
cate and is operating in the Osceola
country. He is well pleased with
that district and will probably do
some prospecting. there. He is good
prospector and will most likely locate
something good if it is in the country.
new Shannon furnace has arrived and
unless something happens, it will be
in operation by September 1st. The
manager of the Shannon has had con-
siderable trouble in securing the
necessary material for the furnace,
which has delayed completion almost
two months. In the meantime the
company has kept up its average
above the 600 ton mark. And with
the addition of the new furnace and
the large amount of ore obtainable,
the Shannon output in the future is
going to interest stockholders.

Gasoline Motor Cars for Railway Use.

The Scientific American of the
18th inst. says that, An extremely
interesting innovation in railway
passenger transportion in this count
ry will be inaugurated this
month during which, tits announced,
the Union Pacific Railroad will
place in service twelve gasoline rail
way motor cars. The cars are in
tended for branch line traffic, where
the fast and frequent service re-
CURED cannot be maintained by or.
binary trains, except at loss"
For once the Scientific American is
behind the times. What it calls an
Interesting innovation" to be in
augurated this month is an old story
with Delaware County people. The
Manchester & Oneida Railway
has been using gasoline motor car
for the transportation Of passengers
for nearly year.
When the Manchester & Oneida
Railway company purchased it's mo.
tor car, directors knew that the
Union Pacific intended to use gas
oline motor cars on its branch linel
and supposed that.some Of its carr
would be in use long before this
At any event there is no reason VIII,
motor car cannot be operated OF
a railroad track much easier thar
over an ordinary street or highway

Men at Seventy.

Several men over seventy, who are
yet prominent in different fields Of
labor, have recently been interviewed
upon the subject Of their ages. Here
is what llama jim" Wilson, Secre-
tary of Agriculture, has TO say, and
we like what he says better than
what any of the others had to say:
"At seventy we have OF course,
more experience with men and
things. We can do more mental
work in an hour but we cannot work
SO many hours. We become broader
in our sympathies, as; far as our fell
low creatures are concerned, and our
interest in the affairs of the world is
as keen as at any time of life Our
affection for children grows as does
our liking for all straightforward ac-
ton. The gradual dropping away
of our life associates brings sadness
but the fear Of death is not SO grea,
as it was when we first learned thai
all must die"

Old Time Advice to Doctors.

There is an old manuscript in the
National library at Paris which ha9 the
following advice TO physicians. SOn
approaching the patient you should as
sumo calm expression and avoid any
gesture of greed or vanity, greet those
who salute you with Il humble, voice
and sit down when they do. Then,
turning to the sick person, ask him
how he is. To the.patient youipromise
to cure, but immediatelysion leaving
the room you say to the relatives that
the disease is grave. The result will
be that If you cure him your merit Is
greater, and you will receive the great
er praise and fee. while If he dies they
will say that you had no hope from
the firsts

Steamers Columbia and Pc.

San Francisco, July 22.-The steam.
er columbia, bound north from this
port for Portland, collided wi:h the
lumber steamer San pcdros OH Satnr-
day night off Shelter Cove, Mendocino
county. There was heavy fog at til,
time and the San Pedros, heavily laden
with lumber, struck the Columbia on
the port bow with such terrific force
that She was cut down to the water
and sank in about five minutes. The
Columbia lies completely submerged
in the deep waters of Shelter Cove.
About one hundred people sanli
with her to Il watery grave, and the
rest. numbering about eighty, were
saved by cllnging onto the San Pedro
from which vessel they We're rescued
some hours later by the steame,
Roanoke.
The steamer Roanoke. carrying $
number of the dead and some of the
rescued passengers, reached here al
6:l5 in the morning, bringing the frs
news of the disaster. The dead were
conveyed to the morgue.
Shelter Cove. where the collision
occurred, is 119 miles up the coast.
Captain p. A. Doran, of the Colum
bia. went down with his vessel. Til,
San Pedros was picked up by thu
steamer George W. Elder and wa.
lowed into Eureka.
The collision occurred at midnigh
when all on board save the lookou

Washington Monuments Cap.

The first practical use ever made OF
aluminium was in fitting Il cap on the
peak CT the Washington monument in
1884. Although aluminium was discov.
cred In 1927 by Professor Woh!er OF
Gottingen university, Germany, ut that
time 1t was practically an unknown
metal, the cost and difficulty of Its pro-
duction having prevented its develop
ment until the general use of electric
lty made 1t easy and economical. The
cap on the top of the monument is Il
square pyramid in shape, weighing 100
ounces, and is SO inches in height and
a.G inches in width at the base. Gen
eral George w. Davis was in immedi-
ate charge of the completion of the
monument under General Casey and
has the distinction of being the first
man to handle aluminium in a prac-
teal way. Until that time 1t had been
used only for toys, for freak" pur-
poses, and small samples had been
utilized in making models for the pat
ent oftice.-Boston Globe.

Trial by Battle Better Than Unwritten
Law.

In the early history of the com
mon law, trial by battle was recog-
nized~by the courts of England, and
the convicted criminal had the right,
as a last resort, to fight his accuser
In such cases the judge ordered a
field to be prepared, and named the
weapons to be used, ordinarily
swords. 1t was the theory of such
combats that the right would pre-
vail, regardless of the. power or
skill Of the combattants. This
theory, however, was usually unsup-
portedAby results and the accnseri
frequently declined to fight the
criminal. In that event the criminal
was entitled to atdischarge. To put
an end to such a barbarous travesty
upon justice the grand jury was es-
tablished to present charges in
criminal cases.
Bat bad as was the trial by bat
tie it, was not as cruel and unjust
as this modern unwritten law about
which SO much has been written OF
late.
Under the peculiar code of this
unwritten law, the assassin is per.
mitted to strike from behind, Shoot
from ambush in the dark, attack 9
victim when unarmed, resort to any
cowardly treachery which may seem
advisable to accomplish the deed
And, to save himself, the assassin
is permitted to go further and black
en- the character of his victim by
any story which he and his accom-
plices can invent. The story, how
evermonstrous it may be, cannot
under the ruling Of the courts, be
contradicted 1t is the theory il
such cases that the assassin believed
the story and that it made him in.
sane, and that the truth or falsity O
the story is immaterial. Both thes'
otfenses against the victim can bt
committed without risk where thu
unwritten law is upheld, or wher
the insanity subterfuge is per
mitted.
Compare this procedure with tn
old trial by battle and who will sa.
that the trial by battle has not man.
points in its favor. Under the tria
by battle each man had at least
chance for his life and for his repu
tatiou.
