An Italians Impression OF Ely

Antonio Scarfoglio, the special cores
pondent of the London Daily Mail, who
accompanied the italian car on the New
York to Paris race, gives his impress
ions of Ely in the following:
We reached Ely at last. 1t was p.
m. then, and that city of wood and can
vas was quite deserted, for all the men
were still at work in the mines of copper
and silver. The population do not sleep
in houses. They live under huge white
tents shaken and lacerated by the winds,
or in tiny huts built of rough boards
held together with mud.
There is one hotel, the phenomenon,
the pride of that city which is not city.
The inhabitants care for nothing. They
are delirious with the money fever,
They, the telegraph and the railway are
the great adventures, all hungry for
gold.
Eight months ago man knocked a
rock with his hammer and thus Ely was
born. A whole population rushed to the
precious spot, and they were like an
army of ravens, or like a multitude of
flies falling upon lump of sugar
Hundreds and hundreds of men-and
women too So FASTENED to this ravine
from all parts of the world. And the
city is growing. 1t is ugly and dirty,
for the inhabitants throw refuse Oh the
streets
Three years from now the fate of this
city shall have been decided, either the
miners will have found the silver and
copper they are searching for-and in
that case these walls of canvas and these
miserable huts of wood will have been
replaced by stone buildings-or fortune
will not have smiled upon them, and
then the city will disappear and the
desert will be once more where the
desert was.
The wind will cover with sand the
foundations, the first rudilncnts of a
town that was to outdo the glory and
wealth of Goldfeld, the place from
where l send these lines, Goldficld, so
rich that the walls are plated with gold.

grown. Since 1899 the cut of white
pine has fallen off more than 40 per
cent, while that Of white oak has fallen
off more than As per cent, To-day
yellow pine leads all other woods i'll
amount cut, while Douglas fir-and this
will he surprise to many-comes
second Since 1899 the cut of Douglas
fir has increased 1856 per cent. Louisiana
is the foremost yellow. pine state, with
Texas. Mississippi and Arkansas follow
ing in order. Washington produces by
far the greatest amount of Douglas fir.
A comparison of the lumber-produc-
ing states shows that since 1899 there
have been many changes in their rel
alive rank. Washington, which in 1890
stood sixth, now leads, while Wisconsin,
which eight years ago led all others, is
now third. In the same period Oregon,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Idaho and Cali
ifornia made great strides as lumber
producing states, though, on the other
hand the amount produced in Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Georgia, Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Indiana and
Ohio fell off anywhere from 90 to "a per
cent
The highest priced native woods are
walnut, hickory and ash, and the cheap
est are larch and white fir. From the
fact, however, that since 1899 the ave-
rage increase in the price of lumber has
been 40 per cent, it will not be long be-
fore cheap woods are few and far be-
tween.

Greatest Lumber Cut

Nor" lumber was cut in United States
last year that in any other year in it's
history. The enormous amount of 81. t.
80, 136 board feet was produced and
the mill value of this was 1921, l51 1888.
IN addition. there were produced II. $50, e.

and 3,Sl2, so. 900 Hath. vauled at ST.
l9O.510. On the whole. it is safe to say
that the present annual lumber cut of
thr United States approximatcs 40
billion feet, and that the total mill value
of the lumber, Hath and shingles each
gear produced is not less than 800. 600.
600 These figures give some idea of
how vast is the lumber industry and
how great Is the demand for it's prod

This morning Publicity Commits
sioner Davis received wire from tie
President of the International Mining
Exposition, New York, that w. D.
Lawton of Rhyolite had called OH him
and arranged to the satisfaction of the
management to have All exhibit of
Nevada ores, etc, in New York.
The New York people state that the
inquiry for Nevada mines is so great in
New York that the Exposition would
not be considered as complete without
Nevada in line. Mr. Lawton has gener-
ously agreed to make up any financial
deficiency and Porter urges Nevada to
get in line with whatever money and
minerals it can show and the Nevada
exhibit will be pulled Off ..
All they ask is for Nevada to have
what money it can raise on the ground
by May % when the Exposition opens
and the management will take care of:
all the exhibits it sends there in the
meantime.
This is good news for. the Nevada
miners and assures the success of the
Nevada exhibit,
1t requires eighteen days to get the
exhibit from Reno to New York. The

WEDNESDAY, APRIL %, 1908
MORE MONEY and PANICS

If the issue of more money wonld
prevent panics, the panic OF 1893 could
have been avoided by increasing the
issue of silver certificates. and the
panic of 1873 could have been checked
by printing more grccnbacls.
The United States is the only civilized
country where such Il dclusi0n finds
substantial following. In England,
France and Germany panics are attri-
buted to over speculation and to the
misuse of bank credits, not to a lack of
money Speculation and an unsound
banking were the cause of the Barring
panic in England, of the German panic
in lS94-J, of the incipient French panic,
which did not go far because the Bank
of France is prohibited from the use of
it's credits for speculative purposes.
Had the banks and trust companies
of New Yorl. city, like the Bank. of
France, refused to loan their assets and
credit on collateral whose valne huctu,
ates with the ticker, there would have
been no more panic here than in Paris
Had al their assets been good CONNER
cial paper there would have been no
impairment of surplus or capital, no
suspensions and receiverships, directly
contrary experience to the millions of
dollars lost on stock exchange collateral
When the creditor banks demanded
the best security for the clearing house
ntf, C
balances due them they insisted not on
ticker collateral but on commercial
paper. Of the sos, GOO, 600 securities
deposited with the clearing house COM
mittcr $500, 000 600, or - per cent, was
commercial paper. Having loaned two
thirds of their assets on stock exchange
collateral, these banks in II time of peril
were saved by their onc-third CONNER
rial paper.
This emphasizes the lesson which ex-
pericnccd European bankers have long

AN AID TO SLEEP
Use a Bag Of Ice Water for Pillow o.
Hot Nights.

Some one has written the newspa-
pers suggesting using water bag
filled or partially filed with cold wa
ter as pillow on hot nights Now this
is excellent for those who can stand
1t. The writer fills a two-quart hot-wa-
ter bag more than half full Of ice
water and slips it between the base
of the neck and the pillow on very hot
nights. 1t serves to cool the whole
body. and one sleeps blissfully
throughout the whole Of sultry
night
Because a strong, healthy person
can bear ice water or cold water for
some hours at the base of the brain,
1t does not follow that a very delicate
or neuralgia person could. The writer,
despite excellent health, never having
heard of It properly applied. tried it.
at first with some slight misgivings,
months ago with good results.
Probably one who could not bear the
ice water about the head could use 1t
applied to some other part of the
body. the ankles being a good place
also. without any but good and COM
forting results.
However, the article referred to
mentioned the use of the water bag
as a pillow. and II one has thick hair
1t might not be more than comfortably
cool. SO used, but quicker results are
obtained at the base of the head.

CHAPTER XIII,

An Impromptu Affair on the High Seas
1t was hardly possible at first, even
for so practiced and acute an eye as
Carrington's, to determine whether he
or Strathgate had the better boat In
the first place, the two cutters were
continually on opposite courses, split.
ting tacks, the wind blowing straight
into the harbor, and it was not until
they had passed and repassed each
other several times that Darlington
became convinced that he was gain.
ing on his antagonist. The gain, how.
ever, was a slight one. The differ.
ence in the rate of sailing between
the two boats was not very great
Both of them sailed faster than the
Flying Star in the air then prevail.
ing. When the big ship got out into
the channel she would probably run
away from the two fishing boats with.
out difficulty. The wind being as 1t
was necessitated hard beat out, and
again this gave the smaller vessels an
advantage, for they could hold on
where the great ship was compelled
to tack for fear of shoal water. And
with every tack they gained distance.
Darlington studied the sea intently
and concluded that II the wind did not
shift and it did not come to blow hard
er than it was, there was every pros
pect that both boats would overhaul
the ship. Whether he could beat
Strathgate at that game, however, in
the time at his disposal was a ques.
ton. At any rate there was nothing
to do but hold on. Master Haight had
viewed Carrington's usurpation of the
helm with some misgiving at first,
but his distrust soon gave place to
admiration, for never was small
boat better handled than by the young
naval officer. If Darlington had been
sailing the cutter in race for a stake
of 100000, he could not have watched
her more carefully or handled her
more skillfully. He made everything
tell
That worthy fisherman, Cooper, who
was sailing Strathgate's boat, albeit
he did very well, was mere tyro com
pared to Darlington. Indeed, Caring
ton felt as if he were sailing his boat
for love, honor, happiness, revenge, all
the passions that can engross a heart
and move soul. Strathgate was nc
sailor, but after an hours rapid sailing
even he could see that eventually Car
rington would overhaul him. He
spoke Of this to Cooper, wringing a
reluctant admission of the truth OF
his conclusions from the sailor, but
the latter promised tn nut him o1opp
side the merchant ship at least be
fore Darlington ran him down.
