NO MATTER WHOSE WIFE;
MUST NOT KISS WOMAN

BATON ROUGE, La. July 15.-In the
lower house OF the Louisiana assembly
Representative Dreibholz introduced a
bill prohibiting the sale of intoxicating
liquor within ten miles of Tulane uni
versity. This would have the effect Of
placing practically the whole city Of
New Orleans on the dry column. This
measure, however, was greeted with
laughter by the members.
A similar greeting was given bill
introduced by Representative Cooper.
This measure declares that a mans
kissing his own wife or any other
mans wife on Sunday shall constitute
a misdemeanor and shall be regarded
and punished as such.

STEADY WORK CONTINUES
ON DEATH VALLEY MINES

r. J. Fairbanks of Greenwater says
that steady development work is going
on at both the Greenwater and Death
Valley and the Furnace Creek prop
critics. From 20 to 80 feet of cross
cutting has been done in both diree-
tions from the 10O0-foot level of the
former and good punches OF copper
ore have been encountered in each.
The management is also preparing to
send the shaft to greater depth.
At the latter the shaft has attained
a depth of 500 feet and substantial
stringers of copper have been cut.
Systematic development is to be con-
tinued at each of these properties.

SINKS WINE IN ORE BODY
TO TEST WOLVERINE MINE

BISBEE, Ariz., July 15.--For The
purpose of further exploring the de-
posit of silver-lead ore struck in the
Wolverine mine several weeks ago
superintendent Roberts has begun the
sinking of a winze IN the ore. The
body has been cross cut for q distance
of about so feet and throughout it
looks very promising. There are some
indications of sulphides coming In with
depth and this furnishes the principal
reason for sinking. Owing to the
formation and previous developments
in that section of the Warren district
1t is entirely reasonable to expect a
deposit OF good sulphide ore underly-
ing the silver-lead ore. Assays Of the
ore body have yielded slightly less than
$50 per ton in silver and lead, but no
tests wera made for copper.
