Important Mining Decision.

The law providing for the forfeiture
of the interest of a co-worker in a min
ing claim who fails 10 pay his share OF
expense on required assessment work
was upheld by Judge Lewis in the
United States Circuit Court April 1st
when he handed down decision in ia
vor of the Ibex Mining Company Of
l.cadVille. in suits brought by il against
Helen Van Cise ct al. His decree en-
joins Mrs. Van Cise. Henry NJ Jones
and others from prosecuting any ac-
tions based upon the Old Van Cise in
terests in the San Jose claim in the
Leadville district. on the ground that
their title 10 a three-eighths interest in
the claim has been forfeited by non
payment OF assessments.
Other points important to mining
men were decided One was that an
advertisement in newspaper for a
sufficient length of time notifying de
lnQuent Cc-owner that, unless he paid
his share ot assessment work, his title
10 an interest was lost was as legal a
basis for forfeiture as an advertisement
of sale by a marshal or sheriff und,
the execution of judgment.
The decree further held that the is
suance of Il patent by the United S'a'es
is not evidence of the ownership Of a
mining claim. hut is merely a sertIi-
cate showing that there are no con.
ficting claims; that all questions IT
ownership must be determined in Cd
and not Wy the Depart ment of Inter =.
An appeal will be taken by the dr.
PENDANTS to the Circuit Court OF Ap-
peals. Judge Lewis decision ends as
far as the Colorado courts are con
cerned, a litigation which has been
pending fer six years. The interest in
the con: roversy involves 5000, 900.

Aspen Mines Resume.

A Denver Republican special Of
April LIST from Aspen says;
Manager COhn announces that III"
Smugsler and Durant properties will
resume tomorrow with full force.
This means the immediate employment
of at least 400. Manager Cohn. it is
said, has been untiring in his efforts
to get the stockholders to resume oper-
ations, having taken trip 10 Los An
geles to consult with David NJ. Hyman,
and last Monday he went to Denver TO
consult with Charles J. Hughes, presi-
dent of the company. who gave orders
TO open the property after April lst.
Aspen looks forward to a good sum-
mer, as recent developments in the
Chicago company's property on Rich
mond hill shows that the contact is
continuous between Aspen and Ash
croft and that fully 500 men will be EN-
ployed there by June 1st. These prop
critics have practically been closed
since early in December.

WAYS OF COOKING CABBAGE.
Sueeuient Vegetable Need Not Always
Be Served Boiled.

Although cabbage has often been
called the poor mans vegetable. many
appetizing and attractive dishes can
be made from il. We give several sooc
recipes:
An unusually good salad was recent
ly served at luncheon. The inside OF
a good sized cabbage was cut out, and
the space filled with mixture of
chopped celery. cucumbers and pep
pers dressed with oil and vinegar, and
well SCI bned. The top of the cab,
bage was replaced after the filling
was put in, and the head was then
placed on d plate in front OF the hos
tess, who did the serving The
guests wondered if they beheld an.
other mysterious Jack Horner pie.
Another way to use a head of cab
bage is to follow the same plan. only
rlling the hole with finely chopped
meat, a little onion and bread crumbs.
Bake until tender and then cut in
slices and serve with a cream sauce.
This makes a very good luncheon dish
or an entree at dinner.
Fried cabbage is particularly good
a. this time OF year. First boil the
cabbage until tender and when cold
cut into small pieces. Cut some slices
OF bacon into strips and put them in
the frying pan. When they have com
menced TO cook. and the bottom of the
pan is well creased. add the cabbage
and fry until a light brown. Season
with salt and pepper
For crcamed cabbage boil the cab
bagc tender, drain of the water and
put into the pot with large teaspoon
ful of flour. a tablespoonful of butter,
\ little salt. and half cupful of milk.
Cook, stirring, until the sauce is
smooth.

lacquered Brass.

I.acquercd brass must not be al
lowed to get black. but should be
cared for in the beginning while it is
still new and bright. and thus insure
ID longer and brighter existence for it.
Il should be washed occasionally
with slightly warm, soapy water, then
dried with soft cloth and polished with
q clean. dry chamois leather.
In damp weather the lacquered brass
should be we'll rubbed every day with
a clean. dry leather Treated in this
way the lacquer can be kept beauti-
fully bright.

The Democratic platform demands
two constitutional amendments, one
providing for an income tax, and the
other for the election Of Senators by
the people. In my judgment, an
amendment to the Constitution for an
income tax is not necessary. believe
that an income tax, when the protec-
tive system Of customs and the inter
nal revenue tax shall not furnish in
come enough for governmental needs,
can and should be devised which un-
der the decisions of the Supreme
Court VIM conform TO the Constitution.

most Of the famous organs found In

tone, sweetness, melody and harmony
as L heard from the tabernacle organ
symphony produced by the divine
touch of a master hand. In my opin-
ion the mind could conceive of nothing
more perfect and deliciously exquisite
TO the ear than the imitation of the
human voice through those inanimate
reeds
II could scarcely believe the posi-
bility OF rendition so like the human
voice of the inspiring selection, Rosa

still more astounding and charming,

organ was silenced, to regret that the
sweet reality was at an end. Surely 1
