TORESUME OPERATIONS
ON COPPER QUEEN

Operations will shortly be resumed on
the Nevada Copper Queen estate, lo-
Gated near Mason pass. Owing to de-
lays occasioned by the non-arrival of
machinery, the property has lain idle
for many weeks.
The much-needed equipment has ar
rived on the ground and is being rapidly
installed. Superintendent Chisholm ex-
poets to pnt force of fifteen men to
work within the next few days develop
ing the property.
The work already done on the prop
erty proves it To be one of the premier
holdings of the camp. The shaft is
down to considerable depth. having been
sunk on the ore body.
The Copper Queen is one of the early
locations of the district, having been
taken up by Pat Gallagher many years
before Yerington came to be recognized
as one of the country's biggest red metal
localities. From this time on there will
be no abatement in the process of de-
velopment. As a result, the Copper
Queen will soon begin steady production.
Gold has also been found in the neigh
borhood of the Copper Queen Adj
joining property owners are devoting no
little amount of time and money in an
effort to locate the source of the yellow
metal.

At depth of Is feet in the main
working shaft of the Walker Lake Syn

ore has been encountered, samples from
which assay as high as 90 per cent

Immediately upon receiving news of
the strike, George Drysdale departed
from Yerington for the scene. 1t is his
intention to thoroughly sample the vein
and to report the result to his superior
officers.
The property has already made a ship

aroused the hostility of the Benz Snas-
sens and Ouled Sahias by their friend
Illness to the French.
While emissaries of the French were
negotiating with the Benz Snassens
and the Ouled Sahias, the latter opened
fire on the Spahis, who quickly re-
turned the fire.

merable, he declared.
Almost all the treasures were sold

the high prices paid in the later eoun-

Thief of Ambazc Cope Con

EXPOSE SHOCKS NATION
Rich Robber Tells How Craving of
Millionaires is Satisfied
Many Implicated.

Paris, Oct. 9.-The biggest sensatio
France has experienced in years was
preeipitated by the dramatic surren-
der to the police today of Antoine
Thomas, a rich barrel manufacturer,
who has been sought in vain since the
theft of the historic Cope of Orth from
the church of Ambazac at Limoges.
Thomas confessed it was he who
stole the cope and that he was one of d
gang who for months have been plum
dering the churches of France of pre-
cious and valuable relics. When the
church and state separation law was
passed and the taking Of church inven-
tories began. he declared, antiquaries
of Paris, some of whom are million
aires, hired him and others to go
through the country and bribe the
parish priests to surrender the relics
and substitute counterfeits which could
later be turned over to the state He
says this plan of operation continued
for months, but as many of the most
valuable church treasures could not
be counterfeited, he finally went boldly
into the business of wholesale bur
glary. Thomas estimated the amount
Of his robberies at 100000.
Prominent Families Implicated.
The stealing of church relics was
only part of the rich cooper's illegal
business. In his house the police found
an array of deadly poisons. a blood
stained stiletto, surgical instruments
for Illegal operations, and a mass OF
correspondence duplicating women OF
some of the best known families in
France and numerous well known
Paris art dealers.
Thomas returned to Clermont- Fer
rand a few days ago from London
where he had gone to dispose Of some
of his plumber. He found his mother
and brother had been arrested and hi:
house searched. He remained near hi:
home disguised until today, when ht
walked into police headquarters ant
exclaimed:
THE head of the firm of Thomas &
Co., whom the people of Clermont- Fer

above suspicion, is a vulgar malefactol

IN NEW OCEAN RECORD
Lusitania Expected to Com
plete Trip in Four Days
and Seventeen Hours.

New York, Oct. 10-The Lusitania
was in touch with the land on this
side of the Atlantic today, and wire
less messages sent by Captain Watt to
the company's representative here said
the big turbine steamship was knock
ing chunks off the westbound record
and, for that matter, off all records.
At noon today the steamship was in
latitude 44.4O and longitude 81 west,
and about SS5 miles east of Sandy
Hook. If 1t maintains that rate OF
speed for the rest Of it's voyage the
Lusitania should be off Sandy Hook
before IL o'clock tomorrow night.
If it gets to Sandy Hook lightship
by IL o'clock tomorrow night it will
have made the voyage, 2.7S0 nautical
miles. in four days. seventeen hours
and twenty three minutes. and will
have averaged 24.5 knots.
Every Record Cut Down.
The best record across the Atlantic
from land to land was made by the
Lusitania on it's first voyage, five days
ffty-four minutes The fastest pre-
vious voyage was that of the Deutsch-
land, in 1901, when it went from New
York to Plymouth in FIVE days, sever
hours, thirty eight minutes, and av-
eraged 1881 knots
Another record that steamship mer
are proud of is the best days run
Until now this record has been heI(
by the Deutschland, which ran 60
nautical miles in August, 1901. av
eraging 24.19 knots for the day. Twice
on this trip the Lusitania has beater
that record. On Tuesday it made Cos
miles, figuring from noon on Monday
to noon on Tuesday. The actual run
ming time was twenty-five hours TWEEN
ty-three seconds, because coming ives
the days are heightened, and the av
erage speed for that time was 24.S2.

Entering a Mosque.

The popular idea that people are
obliged as a sign Of respect to take
off their shoes before entering a
mosque is incorrect. This is done sim
oily because the doors Of the mosques
are covered either with mats or car
pets, which must be scrupulously
clean, as during their devotions the
faithful touch them perpetually with
their foreheads II you wear galoches.
or overshoes, you have only to remove
tAem and boldly walk into the mosque
in your boots. Another popular error
connected with the mosques Is the be
lief that, according to the Koran. Chris
tians must not be allowed to enter
them. This Ia absolutely opposed to
the teaching Of the Koran, which de-
cIares that any man or woman may en-
ter a mosque, be his religion what II
may. Indeed. in the earlier period OF
the history Of Islam 1t was considered
that to invite them to attend the serv-
ice was an excellent method Of con
yerting unbelievers. At the present
time there Il but one mosque In Con
stantinople which a giaour may not m
spect, the mosque of Eyub.-"The Sui
