MAIL CARRIERS
HAVE FINE TIME
Annual Outing of Local Postoffice Em-
ployes at Aamitos Bay Enjoyed
by Twelve Hundred Pic
nickers

Twelve hundred employees of Los An
geles postoffices held picnic at Alami-
tos bay yesterday and, with the excep-
tion of slight accidents to two of their
number, had the time of their lives in
boating, bathing and races and sports
of all description.
The accident which served a. a slight
damper to the occasion occurred early
in the day, when two of the mail car
riers were stung by stingarees while
bathing in the bay. Their injuries were
in no wise serious, although painful, but
the rest of the bunch were wary of
tackling the water and bringing on a
recurrence of the event.
The party, which left the Hughes
market early in the morning, were con-
veyed to and from their destination in
six special cars over the Pacific Elec-
trio. AS both Postmaster Flint and AS
sistant Harrison were forced to be
absent, superintendent Johnson and
Assistant superintendent Purdy had
charge of the days doings. Chief Dis
tributor Fisher and his staff were of
valuable aid to the forces of the two
masters of ceremonies, and the affair
was voted delightful one by the tired
hundreds when they reached the city
late last night.

In some cases bail was required,
which was furnished by few, but
number of unfortunates who did not
have the price were compelled to pass
the night in the tanks.
The charges ranged from drunken
ness to disturbing the peace and from
exploding torpedo canes to firing re-
volvers. In all cases 1t was simply an
exuberance Of the Fourth of July spirit
and the police were unusually len1ent IN
their treatment of those arrested.

pedestrians on the street representing
their quarry. In a number of instances.
1t is said, the pistols were fired directly

money and got out, but the others
were compelled to remain in Jail.

ATTORNEY A. D. WARNER
DISCUSSES THREE EPoCHS
BEFORE BIG AUDIENCE

A. D. Warner, speaking of Three
Epochs," in Central park yesterday
discussed "Creatlon, Experimentation
and Expansion" He said:
ION December Is, 1878, the tea was
thrown into Boston harbor. From that
hour begins the history of the United
States. And that history is divided in
to three epochs.
'.The frst, the epoch of creation
brings us to December 2, 1928, when
President Monroe announced to the
world the Monroe doctrine In the fol-
lowing words:
" In the discussion to which this
interest has given rise, and in the
arrangement by which they may
terminate, the occasion has been
deemed proper for asserting, as a
principle in which rights and inter-
ests of the United States are in
volved, that the American CONT
nents, by the free and Independent
condition which they have assumed
and maintained, are henceforth not
to be considered as subjects for
colonization bv any European
{ power We owe it, there
fore. to candor and to the amicable
relations existing between the
United States and those powers to
declare that we should consider any
attempt on their part to extend
their system to any portion of this
hemisphere as dangerous to our
peace and safety With the ex-
listing colonies or dependencies of
any European power we have not
interfered and shall not interfere
But with the governments who have
declared their independence and
maintain it, and whose independence
we have, on great consideration and
on just principles, acknowledged,
we could not view any interposition

NEW RECORD IN
SHAFT SINKING
Bore at the 0pex, in Tintic,
Went Down 164 Feet in
November.

The big triple-compartment shaft of
the Opex Mines company, at Tintic,
was dropped down 1874 feet during the
month of November, and Manager
Frank P. Swindler is confident that the
distance in such a large shaft and at
corresponding depth is the record. The
big bore, which is six by fifteen feet in
size, has now attained a depth of 1925
feet and going down as fast as the
skilled miners employed can send it

splendid work of the men employed,

crew of shaft men ian my life. No. we
have not reached a depth yet at which
we are expecting to make a strike, and
might say that we caught no ore in
going the distance mentioned. We shall
keep right on sinking, and same day, l

GaIena and Carbonates Cut in

400 Feet.
CARDIFF DRIVING IN ORE
RECALL MAKING MINE IN ITS
GROUND, ALSO.

The main ledge on the Kennebec
company's property on the divide be-
tween Little and Big Cottonwood is
now beginning to show in the new tun-
mel that has been driven this season,
and Manager w. j. Craig, upon his
return from the property yesterday, ex-
hibitad samples of rock that show
both galena and carbOnates.
The vein is dipping away from us,
said Mr.. Craig, land we may have to
run several feet yet to get well into
it. I am satisfied that a raise of a
few feet would give us clean ore now,
but there is no occasion to resort to
that, as the tunnel would have to be
sent in anyhow. What mineral show
ing we have is coming in from the top
of che tunnel, and it ought not to be
long till the vein is fully opened in the
face. The tunnel is now in something
over 400 feet"
On the trip up Big Cottonwood to the
property Mr.. Craig was accompanied
by Manager Fred Price of the Cardiff
cOmpany's mines. Mr.. Craig inspect
ed the latter and expresses the opinion
that another Columbus Consolidated is
going tC be developed there. The COM
pany, he says, is mining in the same
great break" in which the Columbus
Consolidated mine was made, and the
tunnel that is being driven to get I'M
der the old shaft workings is encoun-
tering some very good ore as the work
progresses. ore that is identical in
character with that being mined in the

of is that of the ReXall company.
which has produced d lot of exceed
ingly rich ore in times gone by and
which. in the judgment of Mr.. Craig
is destined to make a record in the
future that will completely eclipse any
thing accomplished in the past.

There was mighty little to the market

nothing to show that either buying or

ALPS REPORTED
TO HAVE BIG STRIKE

1t comes from a pretty good source that
a strike of more than ordinary import
ance has just been made on the property
of the White Alps company, operating in
the Rosebud district, Nevada. Not a
breath of what has happened has been
allowed to leak out from an official
source, but the news is too good and
there are too many people here interested
in the proposition to hold it back.
The story that comes from camp Is
to the effect that, while prospecting along
the ledge the other day and at a point
less than 100 feet from the present shaft
on the property, Manager W. H. Goss
knocked off some pretty likely looking
groupings and then did a little work at
the point where the rock was secured
Later assays were made on the ore. which

the values being I'm gold.
