year, or an Increase of more than 25 per cent.
 Yet again the shrinkage for the fis- cal year ending June 30 1907, is re- turned by the Yale treasurer as about I 1-2 per cent. on the whole group of .269 investments so largely composed of railroad stocks and bonds There has, of course, been an added contrac- ton since last June. but it can be reckoned at more than equalling the previous contraction and still leave a good relative showing for the conser- vative railroad investments of a great educational institution in such per
 iod of great market shrinkage as the
 present one.
 The non default of interest and dividend payments on the 269 Yale investments certifies another familiar fact in terms of high magniture. It is
 anomalous that vast shfinkage of cap Iital nowadays should leave incomes unimpaired just as it is anomalous that so few failures should follow in its wake. But both anomalies are cheering and they can hardly persist much longer without bridging the gap completely between the low ebb of railroad values and the upward turn of the fiscal tide.'

PLACARDs TO REMAIN.
W. (. T. U. Gets Letter from Adver-
 Using Company.

The sequel to the story of the re- movai of the placards placed in the street cars of Waterbury Meriden and Hartford by the W. c. T. T.. early in tle fall, and removed a short time ago by the advertising company was con- tained in a letter received by Mrs. E. B. kendrick, who had charge of the matter, from M Weinburgh president of the Eastern Advertising company
 The letter stated that the removal of the placards had been due to mis- take on the part of woman clerk in his office and that, in the mass of his he had not investi- gated the matter himself. Mrs. Ken drick said that this letter stated that the matter of the injustice of the re- moVal had been brought to the atten- .tion~of the advertising company by an official of the Consolidated road. Mrs. Kendrick said she was sure that the newspaper reports, which she knew were widely read, had influenced the later action of the company MT. .Wein- burgh's letter said that the W. c. T..

Special Correspondence.
Provo, Jan. Pelican Point on the
west side of Utah lake, which achieved
on account of the murder of three
young men. and which has since been
one of the prospective points for a
smelter site. now promises to become
permanently fixed as one of the leading
mining districts in the state, If the an
ticipations of Walter Parks, of Seattle,
ana Eugene Marcus of Philadelphia, are
realized.
Mr. Parks is a Klondike miner and
Mr.. Marcus represents eastern capital.
Their attention was called to the Peli-
can Point district by Judge Dusenberry
who is Mr.. Parke's father-in-law.
Considerable prospecting has been go
ing on for years in the district and gold
in values of from 81 to IS u ton has been
found; but for some reason no extern
sive work has been done, Mr.. Parkes
visited the district and was struck with
possibilities for cyaniding, having in
mind the Treadweu mines in Alaska,
from which great profits are made on
SLIGO ore The country has been
thoroughly prospected by Messrs.
Parkes and Marcus, and they have had
numerous tests made OF the ore TO
demonstrate the practicability of ex-
tracing the gold by the cyanide pro-
cess. Following this they located and
purchased over 1000 acres OF land con-
tanning immense veins and deposits of
ore carrying values assaying from 81 to
IS, and have recently organized a COM
pany which Is to be known as the Peli-
can Point Mining 81 Development COM
pany. Provo is designated as the place
OF the general business, and the capital
stock is $250,000, divided in million
shares of the par value of 25 cents each.
Warren n. Dusenberry is the president;
Walter Parks, vice president; Hyrum F..
Thomas, secretary, and Eugene Marcus
treasurer. These with Thos. b. CEDAR
strom and Brigham Madsen form the
board of directors.
Work is now being prosecuted on the
claims and cyanide plant Will be
erected as soon as possible. It is ex-
pected that IL will be ready for opera
ton early this summer.
In addition to the gold ore. the prop
critics owned by the Pelican Point COM
pany contain veins of iron and copper
which will be developed.
The marble quarries formerly owned
by the Cedarstroms, as well as large
deposits of fire clay. etc, are also in
cluded in the company's holdings, and
both Mr.. Parkes and Mr.. Marcus are of
the opinion that the proposition will de-
velop into one of great magnitude.
