Industrious Camera Man Fl.
nally Caught the Secretary
and Got Good Photos.

New York, March 27.-Trailed by
at military review at Fort Meyer,
Secretary Taft's pictured figure
shortly will be seen on the canvas of
hundreds of vaudeville houses
throughout the country. The portly
secretary Of war has lodged success
fully all attempts of the photograph
er, To snap him for moving pictures
until the other day. Then he fell an
easy victim.
The moving picture man, made
desperate by long series of disap
pointments, arose early. lie station
ed himself at the main entrance OF
the war department but the secretary
entered by a side door. 1t was noon
before the watchers vigil was re-
warded.
At that time Secretary Taft came
down the steps accompanied by sew
eral officers He stopped to chat
with some of them and the man be-
hind the black box ndustriously
turned the crank. The pause on the
steps was brief, however, for the
party entered an army motor and
Moved Up Close in the Haze.
Almost as quickly the moving pic
lure man loaded his machine into
another motor car and was off in
pursuit. The secretary at the fort,
still unsuspecting, climbed on his
horse and proceeded to the parade
ground. which still was shrouded in
the smoke from the seventeen guns
that had Numbered the official sa-
Lutte. The moving picture machine
moved up 10 the reviewing party un-
der cover of the haze.
The review was conducted on the
| big drill field adjoining Arlington
cemetery. The secretary and review
! ing party. including the moving pic
turc person. took a specially selected
position al the west end Of the field

southwest lead and zinc field. Thls
big advance was not altogether un-

operators as significant indication
OF the present tendency of the metal
markets. 1t is now planned to puSh
forward TO completion the plans al
ready undertaken for the construc'
tiun Of the first section of the new
1,0O0-ton Mission mill. 1t is estimated
that with this mill installed and run

is possible at present The output OF

than the combined output of all the
other mines OF the district.

statements carry special significance
