The copper era., 1907-11-14

A recent consular report from Val
paraiso contains data relative to the
Chilean mining industry for the first
half of this year, showing that the
activities have been greater than for
the corresponding period of several
years past. We excerpt the follow
ing from this report: The exports of
copper show gain of 1000 tons dur
i~g that time over the same period
of 1906 and it is thought that the
last half of 1907 will show a still
larger increase. Several rich dis
coyeries in silver and copper proper
ties haye been this year made in the
Coquimbo, Atacama and Antofagasta
districts: the rapid advance of these
districts is only delayed for lack of
better transportation facilities. The
gold fields of southern Chile so far
have not proven to be very rich, outside
of now and then a pocket. The yield
for the first six months of 1907 barely
covered the expenses of working the
dredges, by which means nearly all
the mining is done in that district.

A well dressed individual, repre-
senting himself as an agent for a
windmill hired Il team from George
Ferguson, the liveryman, last week.
The windy Individual was well dress
ed, had quite a prosperous air about
him and talked convincingly that he
was all that he represented himself
to be. Well, he drove to Lordsburg,
and there sold the team, and gave a
bill of sale to the purchase. The
officials in our wide awake southern
neighbors at once used the wire, as
certained that the team had been
stolen. Mr.. Ferguson at once dis
patched man overland, and on his
arrival had the windmill man arrested
and recovered all but Sl.5O of the
money for which he sold the team.
The prisoner gave his name as Virgil
Gregory, and is now in the county
jail.-Silver City Independent.

FINED $33O,OOO.
Santa Fe Railroad Fined for Rebating in
Arizona.

Judge Olin Wellborn, of the U. S.
district court, on November 7th fined
the Santa Fe Railroad company $780,
900 for rebating. The company was
convicted on October IL, for granting
rebates to the Grand Canyon Lime
Cement company of Arizona, by a
Jury, after an hours deliberation.
The rebates were given on shipments
of material from Nelson, Arizona, to
Los Angeles and the amounts ranged
from 30 cents to S15. The company
was indicted on January 9th last, on
sixty-six counts and the jury found it
guilty on all of them. The trial con-
sumed nearly two weeks and was
prosecuted by District Attorney
Lawlor. The defense was conducted
by Thomas J. Norton, the Santa Fe
counsel.
A crowd of seventy-five spectators,
mostly attorneys and some business
men, heard the pronouncement of
the judgment in which great public
interest was taken. The court de-
livered a written opinion of great
length. Judge Wellborn stated that
he was not convinced by the plea of
the company tnat the alleged rebates
were not such. but only sums awarded
in a regular manner as damages on
goods shipped, or that the company
did not know it was a violation of
law. "Such ignorance of law" the
court said, sis equivalent almost to
guilty knowledge of crime" The
court denounced the practice of re-
batting in general in strong terms.

RUSSIAN LIQUOR ...
Revenue from Taxes Amounts to q Large Sum in the Course
 of Year.

The two purposes of Minister Witte in establishing a government monop- oly of the liquor traffic Tn Russia were to diminish drunkenness by making. It more difficult to obtain lntoxicants, and to increase the revenues, states the Philadelphia Ledger. The tune IS still too short to determine fairly the effect of the system on inebriety, but there has been 8 positive financial gain to the government. It cost $73,- 100000 from 1893 to 1901 to put the scheme in operation. During that time the income from the business covered not only this outlay, but also the running expenses, the rebates or duty (more than 3170OO .00O), and the s6. poo 900 donated to temperance so- cieties, and left a surplus Of $S5O,OOO in the year 1901 the receipts from the traffic were sSl 7000 900 and the current expenses were SC. 500. 0.o00 leaving net profit of Sl9, 100000. In addition. the tax on liquor returned $lOS,SOo,O0o- The years sales from the government stores amounted to 133 .000 gallons. The moral effect of the monopoly is less apparent. In 1899 there were 1O.- 234 government stores for the retail sale of liquors. and there were dlscov- cred 9.203 illicit stores or speak easies." The peasant members or the conference in the district of Saraton declared that there is no apparent de- crease of drunkenness. and that, as there are no drinking saloons, the people get drunk openly in the streets: that the secret and illegal sale of liquors is extending. and that the rural communities have lost the con- siderable revenue formerly derived from saloon licenses.

MISTAKES IN ENCYCLOPEDIA

 Alone

A man who has done a great deal of work in correcting some large diction- aries. encyclopedias, and historical ref erence works. who has studied ten lan- gua~ss. and who is well posted on run,ber of foreign lands, examined over 15 600 pages of an encyclopedia recently published in this country, says Success Magazine Much of the work he did without the publishers knowledge. Though this encyclopedia was consid- cred to have been edited very carefully, he discovered over 1000 mistakes in the first volume alone. In the following volumes he found many thousands.
 In speaking of one of the most famous violin virtucsos who ever lived. 1t was stated that in his youth he fell out with his parents and ran away to Cassel, Germany, F years after he died.

In calling an editors attention to this error, the editor replied: 'Verily, a bright kid this! What precocity."

HIS EXCUSE ALL RIGHT.
And the Officer Allowed MT. Dockey to Repose on the Grass in

At midnight recently policeman found man lying on the grass under a tree in a park. and he aroused him, relates the Chicago Inter Ocean.

 But I have a good excuse" replied the man.
 What is it?"
 See that house over there? Well. please do me a favor to go and ring the bell and ask if William Dockey is at home"
 The officer went to the house. ascended the steps and rang the bell. A head was thrust out of an open win dow and a female voice demanded:
 Now. who is there?"
 Madam" replied the officer, lis William Dockey at home?"
 No. sir, and don't expect him un- til daylight" snapped the woman. and at the same moment a bowlful of'wa- ter descended on the officers head and half drowned him.

Double Header Today.

Montgomery is in Little Rock for a series of four games, two of them being booked for this after noon. Inasmuch as the rains cheated the fans out of the op- portunity of seeing the only double-header scheduled so far this season, today will furnish the first double bill of the year. Yesterdays defeat at the hands of Memphis puts Montgomery down on an even plane with the Colts, as a result of which the SC ries just opened is of unusual importance.
 Since the Senators last ap- peared in Little Rock at which time they were occupying the cellar position Manager Malar- key has, worked wonders with his team, and out of the r. games, ten have been won, five lost, and two tied. Several of them have been played on the road at that, so 1t Is very evident that the bunch from the Alabama town is travelling at an unbeatable gait. However, since the recent strengthening of the Little Rock team, there is little reason to doubt the ability of Captain Woods and his men to annex three out of the four games scheduled.
 The two most recent acquisi- tionS of the twirlers, Keith and Engle, will work against the Sen atOrs this afternoon, with Engle probably twirling the opener.

WE SHOULD DRESS FOR DINNER.
Medical Experts Claim IL Is Condu-
Give to CheerfuIncss.

The custom OF dressing for dinner
Is strongly advocated by well
known medical journal, which goes
even further, and declares that every
worker should change his clothes be-
fore the evening meal, even If he
does not possess evening clothes.
The explanation most likely is that
the clothes after they have been
worn all day get more or less
clogged and lose temporarily their
ventilating properties, so that the
emanations from the body do not es-
cape freely.
Nor need the changing of clothes
be the exclusive luxury of the per-
sons who dress for dinner. The
hard-worked clerk, the shopkecper
and the working man would all be
better If they would cast off their
work-a-day clothes and put on clean
clothes for the evening meal after
the day of toll Is over.
The bracing effect of a change of
clothes Is well known. Many a man
feeling almost too fatigued after an
arduous days work to change his
clothes. finds himself considerably
refreshed when the change is accom-
plished. and at the same time he ex-
periences feeling of cleanliness and
preparedness for his dinner, and
good digestion invariably waits On
healthy appetite. The changing Of
clothes may even thus favorably af-
feet nutrition.
The effect of change of clothes
after a days toll is in some respects
similar to that of a bath, mildly
stimulating, bracing, dispelling the
feeling of tiredness and fatigue so
commonly experienced

DOCTORS MISTAKES

their family physicians, suffering, as they

and in this way they present alike to
themselves and their easy-goiDg or over

For Good Roads.
Legislature Should Take Action On the
Subject.

Our present State Legislature
should not fail to take some action
with regard to the subject of good
roads. As a matter of econt my, it
has been demonstrated in other
states, that it is more profitable,
not only to the townships, but also
to the farmers and others who fire.
quently have to use the reads, to
have good r"ads rather than poor
ones. The experiment was tried
few years ago in one OF the west
ern counties Of this state; the gov
ernment was induced to construct
a road which has proved to be very
satisfactory and well worth the
money spent in its construction.
The average township supervisor
doesn't seem to have any concep-
ton of what is required to make a
good road and keep it in repair.
The money appropriated for roads,
in the several townships Of this
county, is practically wasted, ow-
ing, in a great measure, to the Gus
tom of allowing any man, who owns
real eatate, one or two dallars day
for doing twenty-five cents worth
of work in order that he may have
chance to work out" his road
tax. The method Of road making
is simple, when in charge of a COM
petent man, and easy TO learn.
This has been demonstrated by the
work done on roads. already con-
structed by the government.
