MONSIGNOR LUCEY
 MAKES STATEMENT
Writes the Graphic Noting Exceptions to "Romanism" Which Was Used in Discussion at a Missionary
 Society Meeting
 Recently.

Editor Graphic: The Ladies Altar society of St. Joseph's had an enjoy
 able meeting on last Sunday at 11:30
 a. m. The societies of this church con- fine themselves strictly to their own
 church affairs. Whenever it may be necessary to mention another church, it is always done with Christian courtesy. In your issue of Tuesday there is an account of a meeting of
 a home missionary society of another
 church in which the subject of Roman ism and Gospel needs was discussed.
 Those who took part in the meeting
 must be very ignorant of what is al- lowable in the treatment of other Christian churches as they naturally
 know that 'fRomanism'' as applied 70 the Roman Catholic church is an op- probrious epithet and never used by respectable writers. Or perhaps 1t
 was not ignorance that caused the use Of such expressions but real inten- tion to wound the feelings of fellow Christians and show contempt for them. The Catholics of Pine Bluff will continue to pursue the even tenor Of their lives as if nothing occurred.

JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES
 ATTACKED ON STREET

Atlanta, Ga, March 12.-Col
 John Temple Graves, editor of the Georgian, was assaulted on the street here this afternoon by J. H.
 Crutchfield, who was recently tried here for attempted assassination of Mrs. Crutchfield. The assailant, who is a large, heavily built man. approached from behind and struck Col. Graves with his fist at the base of the skull, knocking him down. A friend of Col. Graves came to his rescue and the assailant soon fled, with a number of citizens in pursuit. Crutchfield, reaching to his hip pocket, warned his pursuers not to follow, and made good his escape. He was arrested later The cause of the assault is not known. Col. Graves was not seriously hurt

WOMEN RUN
 STREET CARS
Men of Chile, However, Act as
 Chambermaids in Hotels.

There are some oddities in Chile connected with the sphere of wo- man act as conductors on the street cars. Everywhere the passenger meets the woman conductor armed with her bag( and, as Mark Twain had it, "the blue tripslip for D. cent fare," collecting the coin fully as we'll as her masculine competitor and much more politely.
 In the shoe stores all the sales men, are girls and women and in the telegraph offices in city and country young women are found as operators. And they do their York we'll, too.
 But to offset this Tn a Chilean hotel or boarding house and in many residences. men do the work of the chambermaid. American wo- men are always shocked to find that man servant 'stakes care' of the sleeping rooms in the hotels of Chile.

"SKIDOO KID"
 BORN ON FEB. 23
To Parents Aged 23, and Weighs 2J
 Pounds.

Waterbury, Conn.,, March 12.-By { in the aggregate, Charles Augustus Baudy, born recently, holds the title as the original skidoo kid In him is concentrated the essence of skidoo beside which the vivid speech of the highway is as nothing.
 Note the qualifications bestowed up- on him at his advent:
 He is the son of MT. and Mrs. Joseph P. Bauby, each of whom is 23 years old He was born on February g and he astounded even the least supersti- tiOus of the attending physicians by weighing tWenty-three pounds His terrified father, who rushed to the savings bank to make a nest egg, de- posted $23 in his sons name and told the treasurer that the new arrival had wept twenty-three times within the first hour of his existence. The Ma tional Order of Sons of Skidoo, which was organized here last fall, will take action at once.
 ''This is too much" said his ap- prehensive parent for the twenty-third time this afternoon. q am proud If my son, but I am fearful of his fu- ture. His mother and myself will de- vote ourselves to admonishing him three in the sense of making a de- parture or going away. When he grows up l hope he will lead a crus- ade against slang in general No, l do not think we ought to have nam ed him Skidoo, and the next man who says that to me I'll lick"

ENGINEERS
 COMMITTEE
Holding Conference With General Manager Sullivan of the NJ. P. and |. M. ROadS-Details
 Not Obtainable.

The grievance committee repre- senting all of the engineers en- ployed over the entire Missouri Pa cific and Iron Mountain railroad systems is in St. Louis in conference with General Manager Sullivan of the Missouri Pacific and Iron Noun tain system, says the Little Rock Gazette. The purpose of the con- ference is not known here, though it is said to be that of adjusting matters pertaining to the contract between the engineers and the rail-
 road company.
 The several members of the grievance committee who reside in this city and who are in St. Louis attending the meeting are as fol- lows: R. M. Buckalew, representing the engineers employed on division No. 5S5, the Valley division; James Wynne, representing the engineers employed on division No. 1S2, the Arkansas division, and Charles Ed dington. representing the engineers employed on division No. 27S, the Fort Smith division. They left this
 city last week and are said to be ssll in session. According to the
 reorts here, the committee met in session with Mir. Sullivan Monday The engineers employed over the entire system were recently granted | an increase of 40 cents per hun
 dred miles over former wages. For 1 this reason it is not thought that ! the committee meeting held in St.
 Louis has to do with any request l for increase in wages. The mat ters under consideration have not been made public.

PROSPECTORS CLUSTER
IN UBEHEBE DISTRICT
REGION TO BE SCENE OF GREAT
ACTIVITY
Expert Miners from Tonopah and Gold
field Have Great Faith in Sec
tion Near "Scotty's"
Mystery Mine

Ubehebe district, in Inyo county, is the
scene of great mining activity, and i'm
portant developments are promised fol
the coming season. Scores of prospectors
attracted by the reports of rich finds are
rushing to the new mining country. AL
ready plans are under way for the con-
struction of a railroad which will tap
this highly mineralized section along the
California Nevada line. Among the pio-
neers of the country are Ray Baker and
Johnny Salsberry of Tonopah, who have
extensive interests there. They are en-
thusiastic over their properties. With
their associates they have located over
200 claims, which show rich copper ore
Assays secured close to the surface run Il
and 20 per cent in copper sulphide. Gold
ore of high grade is also found, some OF
the assays running from $500 to $500 a
ton.
Recently party of eastern men went
to Tonopah in a private car, and then
made the trip in autos to the Ubehebe
mines They took their own experts, and
after thorough examination of the coun-
try decided to a form 100000 company
to open up the region Plans are already
under way for railway, which, will run
from Montana, fifty miles to the mines.
The properties of Salsberry and Baker
are located eighteen miles from Scotty's
cabin in the Panamint range. The miner
alization of the new district is described
as most remarkable.

ACTIVE SUMMER
WORK AT WONDER
Twenty-nine Properties Are Producing
ResuIts-TweIve Hoists Are ln-
stalled, with Others on
the Way

Fourteen months have passed since
the first rush into the wonderful camp
of Wonder, says the Wonder Miner,
and upon counting UP the result of
those fourteen months labor we see
twenty mine properties working, the
developments upon which are either
tunnels driven into lodges or shafts
sunk to considerable depth and all of
them sufficiently opened up to prove
the presence of mineral in satisfactory
quantity within their boundaries. Each
of these twenty-nine groups will in our
es stimation make a producer judging of
their future from the present showing,
and we further believe that a majority
of them will develop into propositions
of great magnitude In this enumera-
tion we have not counted the properties
on which little or no work has been
done to prove them, the owners wait
ing, possibly from lack of capital, for a
future development These twenty
nine companies are all equipped with
funds to carry out their plans and no
cessation of work need be contemplated
on account of a shortage in this re-
spect.
Twelve hoists are now installed on
as many different properties busily
bringing the rock to the surface, while
several more are either on the way OF
ordered, and should be in place by

CLEAN UP AT RATE
OF DOLLAR A MINUTE
PLACER MINERS IN LUCK NEAR
WALKER LAKE
Lappan GuIch at Base of Mount Grant
the Scene of the Find-DirtT
Found Running 20 Cents
to the Pan

The Goldfield Chronicle states that a
dollar a minute is the record of the Gus
Nicholson on the Mahafey & Wilcox
placer claims on Lappan creek; trifie
more than a dollar minute, for Nichol-
son washed out fourteen pennyweights
and three grains of coarse gold in ten
minutes-worth about $12. Nicholson
brought the gold with him. 1t is all
coarse, but shows few marks of travel,
and evidently came from ledge close
by 1t was taken from the soil near the
head of Lappan gulch at the base OF
Mount Grant, and washed in rocker
of the same pattern which served the
early gold seekers of Sutter creek in the
days of 49. One nugget weighed four
pennyweights and was of peculiar shape
and a reddish yellow in color.
Nicholson is of the same nationality as
the man who made the first discoveries
in Lappan gulsh, a Swede. and was at
Dutch creek when the news of Hanson
strike reached that lake resort He has
tened up river, twelve miles, but was too
late to get in on the pan gulch discovery.
He got three claims on Cat creek and
six in Cottonwood gulch, which are but
a short distance from Lappan, but on the
west side of the divide. Here the gold is
finer, but there is plenty of water for
sluicing, while on the west side there is
only sufficient water for rocking until
you get farther down the gulch. 1t pans
everywhere, though, and the bars below
may prove the richer.
The nuggets which Nicholson has were
taken from the rich, black soil on the
surface, under the lush brass. Deeper
down sand replaces the soil, but the gold
is everywhere.
Over on Cat and Cottonwood the dirt
runs from 10 to 20 cents to the pan and
it is possible to work on a larger scale
with ground sluices. All the gulches are
located and six rockers are at work.
Sam Bayless of Manhattan has lease
on part of the Mahafey- Wilcox ground
and is taking out plenty of gold. Two
rockers produced 5000 in seven hours.
The scene of the strike is at the base
of Mount Grant, twelve miles above
Walker lake, at an altitude of 5000 feet.
The gulches are in the granite and all
the decomposed rock and soil is saturated
with yellow grains. No search has been
made for lodges, everybody contenting
himself with the gold that is to be had
in the placers.
Swedes seem to take very kindly to
placer mining. 1t was Swede, Tom
Wilson, who discovered the golden con-
tents of the soil around the base of Round
mountain last summer. Wilson made
$50 900 there, took a trip to the old coun-
| try and is back again with another lease
Hanson, who found the gold at Mount
| Grant, is Swede, also Nicholson.
