ON The ten patented claims of the

Quartzite, with Superposed shales and
limestone. crushed and assured by

lions for the formation of large and
profitable ore bodies-eondition am
ply proven ny the rich ore bodies al

process of exploitation.
The early history of the Miller
mine is interesting. but il is a long
story of poor management. of which
we can recall SO many examples back
in the early SOS. Judge l.. y. Bas-
kin. who shows his faith in the dis
triet ny his recent work on the Noun
tain Dell. was one of the incorpora-
tors of the Miller Mining x Smelling
Co. but unfortunately. the company
did not avail itself of his sound
of mining matters.
The first great record run of the
mine was about 1890, when mine and
smelter were operated at full eapae-
ity and hundreds of thousands OF
dollars We're produced. A fault cut
of the ore body and discouraged the
and for a time operations
were virtually suspended. This fault,
which puzzled the miners of early

What Iowa Has Done.
81 have written letters to secre-
taries of several state fairs and have
received much interesting informa-
Fair association had to raise 100000
for improvements On their grounds
during the past twenty years This
association is in a f1ourishing condd-
ton. The letter from the Iowa state
fair secretary was very explicit and
is of such interest that I wish you
would publish a part of it,
The letter speaks for itself, and is
as follows:
1.-The Iowa State Fair and EXPOSITION
grounds contain 270 acres of land; about
80 acres of this is not fenced in the fair
grounds proper. I would not think it
advisable for you to secure less than
200 acres of land, as you will need that
much ground before your fair is many
years old. 1t is much easier to secure
it at the beginning than to leave it to
be taken up afterWard.
THE race track at the Iowa state fair
is a half mile track.
"The total investment in the Iowa
State Fair and Exposition grounds to-
day is about $500, 900. About $500. 900
worth Of improvements has been made
on the grounds during the last six
years, about half of this amount was
received by direct appropriation, and
the balance was funds available from
the net profits of the fairs during that
length of time.
''The Iowa State Fair and EXPOSE
tion has an annual attendance now of
from 175,00O to 100000 people For the
past few years the net profits of the
fair, after paying all expenses and
premiums, have aggregated from $20,-
900 to $4,000 annually. The net profit

CUDAHY READY TO PAY
But Amount rendered Is Not Enough
to Satisfy Mr.. Denton.

The Cudahy Packing companv this
morning commenced in the supreme
court a mandamus suit to compel Sec
retary of State G. E. Denton to accept
$1,105 from it in payment Of a fee on
an increase of $5,000,000 in its capital
stock.
1t isn't everyone that would refuse
to take money until compelled to by
mandamus, but in this case 1t appears
that Mr.. Denton thinks the Cudahy
people should pay the state just double
the $1,105 rendered. The suit is a
friendly one to test a point about
which there is natural difference of
opinion.
The Cudahy company on November
z, 1906, increased it's capital from
$7.OO0.0O0 to $12,00O,0 600. That was
before the passage by the legislature
of the new corporation law which in
creased the fees to be paid by COR
porations. The company made no
application to the secretary of state
to pay up on its increased capital until
March 81, 1908, which happens to be
today. Mr.. Denton claims that the
new law having gone into effect. the
company must pay up under the new
law and not under the old one.
J. E. McFadden is attorney for the
company, and filed the suit in the su-
preme court. Justice Mason allowed
an alternative writ, and set the case
for hearing on April 6 at 10 o'clock
a. m.

Psyche Has q Pleasant Time Even II
Her 'tPOwer" Was Not Rampant.

Miss Donahue called on Governor
Hoch this morning. Miss Donahue is
better known in Topeka as Psyche.
the twentieth century marvel, an act
that will make you wonder how it is
done, a genuine sensation" See vadue-
vile ads.
Psyche informed the governor that
she was born in Emporia, and was well
acquainted with Charley Kellogg 8
father. Charley Kellogg is Governor
Hoch's stenographer. In fact, Psyche
claims to be the first white child born
in Emporia. She doesn't look that old.
She also says she went to school at
Bethany here in Topeka for a while.
Whether she learned to be a Vaude-
vile star at Bethany is not quite clear.
At any rate She is doing a sort of
mindinf1uence, hypnotic stunt at the
Olympic this week which is decidedly
unusual. She tried a few experiments
in the governors office this morning,
but the influences weren't right some
how, and the thought waves were a
little shaky.
Just as she was about to leave she
said: Governor, want a souvenir.
If you would just turn your back a
minute, I would like to steal that let
ter opener off of your desk"
The governor responded to this "sug-
gestion'' Immediately, and Psyche took
the letter opener and stuck 1t clear
through her head-or it may have been
merely through the knot of hair on
the back of her head.
Pyscho is a great talker and a great
jollier. She wears the smile that won't
come off.

about $4,000. There was paid out in
premiums last year something over
$35, 900 cash. The total receipts for the

pany. land the question is still OPEN
We have taken it up with the Kansas
Natural people and hope to keep them
from insisting on the twenty-five
cent order. It has been established
in all the other cities around here
with the exception of Kansas City,
Mo, as I understand
when do the manufacturers go
on the natural gas basis?'
fSome of them are on already. We

featuring have done so with the un-
derstanding that the rate question is
still open to settlement"
The rate last summer was ten cents
flat. A large number of manufac-
turers use the natural gas during the
summer months returning back to
coal during the winter months. At
25 cents il is questionable whether
the use of natural gas for steam pur-
poses is economical even though
there is some fear expressed in To-
peka that the price of steam coal
will probably be advanced by the
coal operators.
If a. coal strike is precipitated 1t
may force manufacturers in Topeka
to resort to natural gas at rs cents
whether they want to or not.
The gas and electric light COM
mittee of the council has now under
consi deration an ordinance reduc-
ing the maximum prices specified in
the franchise of the Consumers Gas
company for domestic consumption
from As cents to a sliding scale of
from 80 cents to 25 cents. This ordi-
nance is being held until James F

local company can come to Topeka
for a conference with the committee.
The conference will be held on April
Is under the present arrangements.
No reference is made in this pending
ordinance to the manufacturers rate
which under the existing franchise,
cannot exceed 30 cents.
The council is not fighting so much
for the manufacturer as for the pri-
vate consumer, the man who uses ma
tural gas to heat and light his home.
dfsposes of it's product to the local
Consumers company under con-
tract, the Kansas Natural company
securing certain percentage of the
revenues.
The action of the Kansas Natural
Gas company will probably make the
council all the more determined in
the stand that it has taken on the re-
duction of the maximum rate.
