That the earth revolves on its axis
can be proved by a simple experiment.
Fill medium sized bowl nearly full
Of water and place it upon the door Of
room that is not exposed to jarring
from the street Upon the surface OF
the water sprinkle a coating Of lycopo-
dium powder. Then take powdered
charcoal and draw a straight black
line two inches long upon the coating
The line should be north and south.
After this is done lay upon the door
a stick so that II Will be exactly paral-
lei with the charcoal line. Any sta
tionary object in the room win an
swer as well, provided 1t Is parallel
with the line. If the bowl is left un-
disturbed for several hours II will be
seen that the black mark has turned
toward the parallel object and has
moved from east TO west Ia direc-
tlon opposite to the movement Of the
earth on its axis. This proves that
the earth in revolving has carried the
water with II. but the powder on the

MILL FOR
SEVEN TROUGHS

The Seven Troughs district will
have a custom mill in operation by
the middle of January next, accord.
ing to the Seven Troughs News. This
good news comes as the result of a
visit to the district the past week by
Samuel Harris, a wealthy mining
man of London, England, d. c. De-
marest, prominent mining engineer
OF California and the head of the
Angels Iron Works of Stockton, and
Charles M. Lindsey, a well known
contractor of San Francisco. Mr..
Demarest spent some time in the
camp last spring as the guest of C.
8. Floyd, the mining broker of this
place and was so favorably impressed
at that time with the district that he
has been endeavoring ever since to
get his people to locate here. While
the main purpose of their visit was to
ascertain the practicability of INSTALL
ing a reduction plant for handling
local ores, the gentlemen made a
thorough examination of the district
with a view to acquiring interests in
a mining way.
The result of their examination.

practically every part of the district
where work has been done, was sat
isfactory to the highest degree. Mr..
Harris stated that never in his ex-
perience had he seen as wonderful
showings as there are here and he
expressed it as his opinion that with
Development the Seven Troughs dis.
trict will be one of the greatest in
the state.
Before leaving the district the i'm
mediate erection of mill was de-
cided upon. A site was selected near
the south end of the Mazuma Addi-
ton Townsite company. Sufficient
water to supply mill of many times
greater capacity than the one pro-
jeted was brought outright from the
Seven Troughs Michigan Leasing
company and all plans were laid for
immediate construction work. The
gentlemen after a careful survey of
the ground left for California, where
the mill will be ordered. Excavation
will commence within week:
Messrs. D. H. Shea, the mining ex-
pert, and G. S. Floyd have local
charge of operations and both of the
gentlemen are making every effort to
make the mill a success.

HEART FAILURE
CAUSED HIS DEATH

Mrs. Henry Stevens yesterday re-
eeived the details of the death of
Walter Moore, near Nina, which oc-
Cured on the twenty-fourth of this
month. From the details received
it appears that Mr.. Moore and his
nephew were out prospecting and to-
ward the evening on the day of his
death the nephew started out to look
for the horses belonging to the par
ty. While he was absent the horses
returned to the camp. Mr.. Moore
fed the horses and tied them up and
evidently when he started to return
to his tent fell dead from heart
failure. The nephew returned in
about ten minutes and the body was
still warm. He Immediately convey
ed the remains to Nina. From there
the body was taken to Berkeley,
where the interment took place. He
was not killed by gunshot wound
as was first reported, but it is sup
posed that heart failure caused his
death.
