About $40, 1000 in bullion was shipped
from the Shoshone this week-gold and
silver taken from the zine boxes, says
the Beatty Miner. The usual amount If
concentrates was accumulated during
July and the total production for the
month should foot up to $4,000 or $50,
900. The Shoshone is making good and
will continue. The management has de-
eided to accept small quantities of Gus

net of several Laid mountain leases.
Skookum Lease
William Parker and Chris Kellar
were in from the Skookum this week.
They report that the crosseut tunnel,
which has been run about $50 feet, has
penetrated the vein for about four feet,
the quartz showing some bromide and
streaks of iron ~sulphides. An assay on
the material, made Monday, went So a
ton. Mr.. Parker says that at surface
the vein is about 20 feet in width and
that commercial ore should be encoun-
tered at this depth, about 400 feet.
When the vein has been crosscut from
wall to wall, drifting will be done in
the hope of opening a rich shoot of ore.

GOLD CRATER DISTRICT IS
BECOMING BIG TRIBUTARY

Goldfeld is reaping benefit from the
activities that are prevailing in the
Cold Crater section. a two-hour auto
ride from this city. Z. c. Root, at a
depth of 800 feet in his shaft, has cut
a ledge that assays $40. This find was
made late in the week and he does not
vet know the width of the ledge.
An increased force of men will be put
to work next week in the Gold Crater
Mining company's shaft, better known
as the Murphy property.
A deal is now on for the Windy Ride
group, which is owned by Sam Calvin
and Jake Martin. Several other prop

 The retreat for the old soldiers In the evening of their lives is generally called throughout Alabama, the Talk ner Home. From the close of the war until. the time of his death Col.

He was possessed of beautiful tract of wood ed and rolling land three miles east of Mountain Creek. This he gave without reservation for the Home. He was thon District Attorney of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad and in receipt of a splendid salary. It Is an open secret that Col. Falkner de- voted practically all his resources to the upbuilding of the Home. He labored unceaslngly" but successfully to interest the people of Alabama in the Home. He enlisted the interest of the entire State in the work. The Legislature of Alabama fell into line and helped. As result the splendid he ne at Mountain Creek is not only a haven and retreat for the poor Con- federate soldier but it is in itself memorial to the labors of a Confeder- ate soldier who labored for his com rades.

 There are people high in the gov- ernments of several countries de. clared Mrs. Spencer, "who have shady transactions in the trafic of which speak"
 The subject of the session was "so- cial Prophylaxis."
 Dr. Rosalie Slaughter Morton, a delegate representative from the American Society for Sanitary and Moral Prophylaxis, was the principal speaker. pr.

It will be the duty of this united body. after q mutual un- derstanding based on common views. to attack Jewish problems, the solu- tion of which could not be effected hy the organisations individually" IL was further urged that all the great Jewish bodies with similar objects should come within this union of or ganizations, that steps should be talk en to ensure all countries with an ac- tive Jewish population being reprn- scented In the union, and that the still outstanding organiza tions should Dc induced to join as speedily as possible
 It is not at all clear as yet what this exactly means. The conference was a sequel to confidential gather ing hold in March at which 1t was recommended that cooperation be- tween the great Jewish colonizlng agencies (which at present comprise the Jewish Colonization Association. the Zionist Organization and the Jew ish Territorial Organization, should be effected. And that the September con- ference was originally intended to de- vote its attention to colonization pro- jects is evident from the details of the proposed new agency that were recently published. It appears. now ever. that this scheme has now been dropped, and that in its place a gem eral union of all the important Jewish institutions throughout the world whatever the field of their activity. is being attempted.
