Duck Hawks Return to Postal Tower

structed with the remnants, feathers,
bones and feet of the hawks victims,
and so the death Of the marauders was
decreed. "
The duck howk is none too common
bird, and ornithologists and bird
lovers generally do not think a species
so interesting should be forced to ex-'
tinction even though 1t does kill few
game birds. The bird lovers argued
that il killing game were to be made
capital offense good many men
would suffer. There was protest
against the killing of the hawks and
they were spared.
The postoffice department building
Is situated at one Of the busiest cor
ners in Washington, but the fact that
the building is in the city has been
a protection to the birds. 1t is not
unusual to see them shoot by the win
dows Of the higher office structures as
they go their way to the hunting
grounds. '+
The first assistant postmaster gen.
eral is an ornithologist, and the
chances are that IL any suggestion is
made that 1t would be good thing to
kill the hawks they will find ready
champion in Frank H. Hitchcock. The
biological survey also is interested in
the hawks.
The L'Anse sentinel., 1908-01-25

Every winter for years a pair of
duck hawks has used the tower of
the postoffice department building on
Pennsylvania avenue as a place of
refuge. The birds are in their winter
quarters again this year, and from
their safe retreat high above the
street they make daily trips to the
Potomac, where they pick up many a
luckless coot and grebe which are
forthwith sacrificed to appease the
seemingly never completely satisfied
hawk hunger.
!, The duck hawk is cosmopolitan
bird. It" appears In slightly varied
form In most parts Of the world. The
extent Of its range has given 1t the
name of the wandering falcon.
Three or four years ago some of the
postofice authorities sought permis-
sion to shoot the hawks, for they were
in the habit Of carrying their quarry
into the tower there to devour at
their leisure. Some pipes became OBJ

LYDIA E. PlNKHHM

Nature and q woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old fashioned days Of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs OF the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The I1dians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkharn more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and effica-
cious than any combination ofdrugs.
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 516 NC. St,
louisiana, Mo-, writes:
COmplete resJordtion 10 nealUn
means so much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years / had been suffer-
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time ! had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what I suffered, and at times I
could hardly walk. About two years
ago wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
I followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. It is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia e. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
twill do for other suffering women.

FIRST CAR OF GREAT VALUE.
FIRST CAR OF GREAT VALUE.
Management Will Develop at Depth
Rather Than Ship for the Pres
cnt-Mining Plans.

Something of surprise was devel-
Mining company received settlement
from the smelter for a ear load of ore
which returned 255 ounces OF silver,
q per cent lead and sl.20 in gold to the
ton. This was a surprise to all but
the management and those in close
touch with the more recent progress at
the mine, as little has hitherto been
said concerning the property which
would pave the way for knowledge of
such values. especially, when they are
known to exist IN such. large bodies as
the one reported by Manager George
St Clair.
Some time ago a rich body of ore
was encountered in a Wine being sunk
from one of the upper levels, and the
last, and very much the larger body
OF rich ore was encountered recently in
the course of tunnelinS on the 400 foot
level TO connect with the wlnze. This
last discovery yielded the ore just set
lied for by the smelter and its Inn
portance is largely increased when it
becomes known that 1t consists of an
arm Of the first discovery, thereby
proving beyond doubt the existence OF
a much larger body of the rich stuff
than was made apparent by the first
strike.
The width of the vein from which
this car of ore was taken is IA feet,
and all good ore, although in sorting
for the shipment nothing that would
not produce better than 100 ounces of
silver was saved
Manager st. Clair states that ship
nents could. without doubt, be con-
tinued from this vein. the policy of
the management for some time to come,
woill be one of large develop
-ment rather than Of ore shipping.
Among other plans outlined for tho
future working of the Lyon HILL is
the installation in the early spring, Of
a compressor which will make pos
siblc the driving of a tunnel at the base
of Ophir mountain, which will open the
property at depth OF 1900 feet. the
lowest depth SO far attained being
400 feet.

GuGGENnEIM EXPLAINS.
Nothing New in Plans OF New Smcltcr
Combination, and Nothing
To Worry Over.

~ WITTY wv.
New York. Dec. l9.-Aecording to the
best informed people here. In the mar
ter of the present smelling and refining
building plans, the meeting of the rep
resentativcs of copper interests. for the
purpose of establishing q copper stitis-
teal bureau, has nothing to do with tne
formation of the new combine, and the
planning OF one and the carrying out
OF the other arrangement, Is purely q
coincidence.
President Daniel Guggenhem of the
American Smelling and Refining COM
pany, yesterday gave out a statement
to the effect that there was nothing IN
the published plans of the new proposed
competitor for smelling business which
need in any way alarm the stockholders
In his company.
MI. Guggenheiin denies that there
is anything new in the talked OF plans
of the Ryan-Cole interests with regard
to copper mining or copper smelling,
as they. with q very large percentage
of their following, have, for many years
been interested in both the Industries,
and that they should now plan to go
into the business on a larger scale Is
not surprising.
The statement further carries the IN
formation that the Guggenheim COM
pany controls but one exclusive copper
smelter in the United States, and that
copper smelling Is largely regarded as
an annoying business.
Mr.. Guggenheim further asserts that
30 per cent of the lead smelling III the
United States and Mexico is now con-
trolled by the American Smelling and
refining company, and it's established
competitors, through ownership of the
producing mines, or under long time
contracts,
