Water Mixed With Gasoline

To correspondent who ks how one
may tell when water has been mixed
with gasoline. The Aut mobile Maga-
zine New York, March) answers as
follows: "1f the water is mixed with
the gasoline. the best pan to find il out
is to put about a spoonful in a saucer
and set fire to il in a safe place. All the
gasoline will burn up aud leave the
water behind. Another way is to run
the mixture through a bag made Of
chamos leather. when the gasoline will
pass through. but the water will remain
behind. II wster in the gasoline has
settled to the bottom Of the tank il will
pass into the carbureter and prevent the
engine from starting. If the car
bureter is permitted to overflow. one
can tell by the touch if water is running
through. To become familiar with this
touch, dip the fingers into gasoline and
rub them together, then do the same
thing with water. A different sensation
is felt between the two fluids"

ENFORCING PURE FOOD LAW

1t is not usual for a Cabinet official
to be overruled by the President, but it
sometimes happens. President Roose-
Welt has now actually overruled the
veteran Secretary Wilson in an inter-
pretation of a section of the Pure Food
law relating to whisky. Congress en-
powers the Secretary of Agriculture to
frame the regulations" for labelling all
articles Of food and drink, and ever
since the passage of the law there has
been a contest with the rectifiers in re-
spect to the labelling of what are known
as offended whiskies.
The exact form Of the controversy
which has been carried to the President
does not appear. but in a general way it
may be said that Chief Chemist Wiley
has insisted on more minute descrip-
ton of the blends than was satisfactory
to the rectifiers, who did not desire that
either the public or their competitors
should know so much about what was
iu the stuff as would be learned from
DIR. Wiley's labelling. Secretary Wilson
overruled DR.. Wiley and DIR. Wiley ap'
pealed to the President. who sustained
The President is unquestionably in dead
earnest in demanding that when we buy
something labeled whisky or anything
else. we shall know precisely what we
are getting.

MINERS STRIKE At ELY
Ask Increase in Wages From
$3.50 to s4 Per Day In
All the Mines

Ely, Nevada, April i2 twenty-five
miners working for the Mcdonald Ely
Mining Company in this city have de-
clared a strike because the owners Of
the property refused to grant an in
crease in the wages from $3 80 to ~.
The men state that there will be a
demand for an increase in all the mines
in the Ely Mining District. and that
unless the owners grant the increase,
the miners will declare a strike that
will tie up every mine in Ely. and put
an end to work in this great copper
district.
II all the miners strike there will be
between 500 and 200 men out of work
in the next few days. The mine own
ers declare that the increse will not be
granted, as the present schedule is a
fair one, considering the living expenses
of the camp, which are much cheaper
than in any other camp in Nevada.
The miners state that they earn 81 per
day. and that they will not return to
work until they are promised the in
crease. Iu the other mines. the men
working underground are paid "a per
day, and the men on top are paid $3.50.
In the McDonald.Ely all miners are
paid $3.50 per day. The owners declare
that this is a fair rate, as the mine is
dry and the men are not compelled to
endure the hardship of the miners
working in other properties in the
camp.
Secretary f. J. Cox, of Miners Union
No. 25l. with headquarters at Lane
City, has stated that the Miners Union
Is with the striking miners, and that a
general strike is probable unless the
demand is granted. The local Miners
Union is affiliated with the Western
Federation of Miners. "The Union is
in prosperous condition and Is well
prepared to care for the miners" said
Secretary Cox. "but il the strike be-
comes general and we are unable to
handle it. we will turn it over to the
Western Federation of Miners, which
organization will see the men through. "

Property Owners Are Standing
in the Way of Big 0evel-

FOR CLAIMS ON WHICH LITTLE
HAS BEEN DONE.
WANT TOO MUCH MONEY

Vivian p Strange, the well known
mining engineer, has been making study
of conditions in the camp of Contact,
northern Elko county, Nevada, concern
ing which considerable has been said re-
Gently. He stated yesterday that there
was certainly a good showing Of copper
in the district, but the owners of pros
poets were holding their prices so high
that it would prove difficult TO get money
invested there.
There is only one property in the dis
trict that has been opened TO any partlc-
ular depth and IN that, notwithstanding
that it is equipped with good hosting ma
chinery, etc, nothing is being done at
present. Mr.. Strange liked the formation
and he also liked the appearance of the
ore that was produced in various portions
of the district and along the great con-
tact lode which has evidently fed the nu-
merous interesting assures. 1t Is a GOOD
district in which TO try for big mines,
but before capital can be induced TO go
in there and spend large sums in deVel-
oping and proving up the region, proper
y owners, in his judgment, will have to
offer better inducements than they are
inclined to do at the present time. Elth-
er that or they viii have to buckle IN
and do more work on their own accounts
TO prove up the deposits that are exposed
in The shallow workings.
