While standing on tho abandoned part of the road burn, the dynamite exploded, sending pieces of the stump, rocks and gravel flying in all directions. One piece of gravel broke Cartcr's glass eye in two pieces and another struck him in the cheek close to the other eye, completely clos ing the optic.
 The physicians in attendance have hope of saving the injured eye. The glass one will be replaced.

RICH SHOWING IN SILVER CHORD MINES
SFrom Sunday'e Daily)

<From sundsy's Daiiy)
 With a magnificent ore showing ir
 the mine, including another rich strike one ear of ore shipped early this wecl
 and two more cars being loaded .o b,
 transported to the Fl Paso smelters
 the Silver Chord mine in the Blacl
 Canyon district bids fair to clipsc all
 former records of production thi. year."
 This was the statement made yes
 terday by Wash Hutton, who is in the city from the Silver Chord camp, to g
 Journal Miner representative. Hutton is enjoying n short vacation here, after
 ming seven months engagement in the mine with C. W. Ruffner, operating tne property under bond and lease. "Ore carrying li0 ounces of silver 'o the ton is now coming in the face of the drift on the 230 foot level" he said. "This ore body was struck a few days ago. The drift has been pushed only few feet, so the extent of the deposit is yet unknown. The ore is q chloride. In distance of 4,50O feet the length of the three clnims compris. ing the group, the ledge is opened by a number of shafts, the deepes. of which is 2s0 feet. These openings expose n paystreak from six to ten inches in thickness. carrying average values in silver, lead and gold the entire distance of $30 to the ton.
 "stoping is in progress immediately over the 2i0 foot level. The ore is the same character as found in the levels nearer the surface. with large ton. mage blocked out in all the levels. al. most to the grassroots. The orc being mind assays from $40 to s6o to the ton in silver, lead and gold.v
 The Silver Chord group is located three miles south of Turkey station in the Black Canyon district. The ore is packed and hauled to the station, a good trail leading all the way to the mines, besides wagon road nearly half the distance. After the discovery of the property wenty.eight years ago by Jesse A. Robeson, George Zika and J. k. Lowry, the mine continued in the producing class many years until work was abandoned on it entirely in the early 90's on the decline in the price of the white metal. Work was subse. quently resumed, from time to time, but no continuous operations were at. tempted in many years until it was taken over by Ruffncr several months ago, who has since been industriously developing its old drifts and stopes, meeting with good results. His opera. tions are now confined to the 24O foot level, in which Hutton says there is such an excellent showing that he is considering the advisability of starting work in one or more of the other shafts, pushing drifts ahead where there is also ore of the shipping class in sight.

Kermit Glad to Get Away.

"Charlie" Taft's joy over his fatb- CTS nomination was unbounded for a time, but there came fly to his oint- ment. His closest personal friend and playfcllow is Kermit Roosevelt. It oe- cured to him all of n sudden the otaer day that when he moved into the White House and Charlie" enter tains not the slightest doubt that he will move in on the Fourth of next March Kermit would have to move ont.
 He went straight to the White House to tell Kermit now sorry he was.
 "Oh, that's all right" declared Ker. init. "You know, we'd lot rather live up at Oyster Bay; a fellow can have some fun mp there without any body to poster him. We're going mp there tomorrow, and I wouldn't care if we never came back.
 That made "Charlie" feel a lot bet ter about it, but he secured from Ker pnit a promise of frequent visits to the White House.
 Kermit and "Charlie" belong to the baseball team of which Kermit is cap tain. Games are played with rival ju venile teams on the White House lot, and often the crowd of spectators is a one.
 Kermit and "Charlie" got togeth CT and decided that next year, when Kermit is gone, "Charlie' shall be captain of the team. It never occurred to them that the other members of the team should be consulted.

MRS. TAFT PAYING THE
 PENALTY or 0nEArNYss

and, to tell the truth, the family dossn T altogether like it. As the family O, member of the presidents cabinet that privacy so highly prizsd by right minded Americans was not seriousl, encroached upon. As the family O, the candidate of one of the leadin, parties for president, the general pub lie doesn't feel called upon to accord any privacy at all.
 Immediately following the secre.a rvs nomination at Chicago, there va, an influx of Especial writers" from metropolitan newspapers, especially from New York. Most of them wer, women. There wasn't anything these women didn't want Co see and hnow They would have invaded every room in the house from cellar to attic and would have photographed Mrs. Taft in bed, if she would have consented. They asked questions so personal that @ Hot. tcntot would have resented them, and were much grievcd that prompt and de. tailed answers were not forthcoming. Hut n young woman from one of the New York "yellows" capped the eli. max. "Oh. dear Mrs. Taft," she gor. gled, "wont you just let me stay here three or four days as your guest, 20 that l can see how you live and write n dandy article on the family life of our next presidents"
 Now, Mrs. Taft is widely famed for ner hospitality, but this was the frs: time in her experience any one had asked to be taken into the househ hold in order that the getting.ups, the go. ings- to. bed and in.betweens of the fam. ily's doings might be told an eager and pnlpitating world She was staggered for moment, but finally managed 10 get out of it by explaining that her engagements just now would not admit of her entertaining house guest.
 A Guard for His Dad.
 The morning following Secretary Taft $ nomination members of his fam fly became much worked up because a policeman was pacing up and down in front of their house. More than that, he kept his eye on the front door, as if waiting for some one inside to come out.
 ''l m going out 10 see what that cops doing out there," declared young "Charlie" Taft, after family eoun. cil had decided that the situation was no longer bearable.
 He bolted forth like n rocket.
 "Say, what's the matterl' he de. manded of the big blue.eoat. "Aih't nobody in our house done anything, have tney''
 "Ain't your father nominated :or prcsidenti' inquired the policeman in turn. "I've got orders to guard your house.'
 "liuh," announced young "Charlie', to the waiting family, "they're afraid some one will steal papa just because be's nominated for president. Just as if he wasn't big enough to look our for himself"
