Boom Times
This Summer
E. F. Prudential Returns
From a Three Months
Visit in the East,

E. F. Prudential returned
this week from an extensive trip
to New York City and other east
ern points. Mr.. Prudential
has been absent for about three
months, during which time he
has been working in the interest
of Phoebe in general, and of some
very good properties he owns in
particular. He succeeded in
organizing and financing at least
two very strong companies, and
these will commence active oper-
ations Immediately. They will
work what is known as the
Lyndon Mines company in
Comet, and also that territory
embraced in the Telephone group
east of town. Mining is taking
a very perceptible leap into the
favor of the capitalists at pres
ent, and Phoebe is receiving her
share of the attention.
Asked as to how the smelter
conditions were shaping them
selves, Mr.. Prudential answer
ed that some very encouraging
developments could be looked
for in the near future. Plans
are at present under way, the
nature of which he did not feel
at liberty to give out at present,
should they materialize, will
mean much for this district.
Phoebe will unquestionably be a
lively town this summer, said
Mr.. Prudential, and he knows
whereof he speaks.

ment to preserve the second
growth, but not until the Fed
eral government assumed and
established national forest re-
serves, and adopted the policy
of conservation and distribution
Of water for irrigation purposes,
did real progress begin with
hopeful results. Hereafter, every
watercourse, ditch and rivulet
should be fringed with trees.
Every home should be adorned
with trees, shrubs and vines;
grass made to grow and flowers
to bloom. Thousands of new
homes are being established,
and contentment and happiness
will prevail.

morning, and furnished valuable informa-
ton, in addition to that already secured
by the Chamber of Commerce and by the
attorney of the out-of-town capitalists.
Mr.. Lake says there is a steady demand
in Washington for $4,000 worth of boxes
a year The paper box demand seems to
be we'll supplied by local factories, ac-
cordtng to Mr.. Lake. but the wooden box
demand at present has to be supplied

NEEDS WARRANT OFFICERS.
Revenue Cutter Service Looking fol
Able-Bodied Men.

The United States revenue cutter serv-
ice is in need of warrant officers to fill out
the complement of the new ships that
will soon be ready to go into service. and
seamen of worth and ability now have
an opportunity to get into the service at
good pay. Boatswains, gunners. carpen-
tiers and machinists are the officers want
ed. and crews Of seamen will also be
needed to man the ships. Appointees to
warrant officers berths receive on enter
Ing the service so per month and rations.
At the end of every five years an adj
vance of 10 per cent is made, so that
when a man has been twenty years in
the service he is receiving 10 per cent
more pay than when he entered it. Thirty
years of active service entities the officer
to retirement on pay of 500 per month
for life. The revenue cutter service offers
inducements for officers and men that
rival the navy. 1t is rapidly becoming
marine service of the country.

Certifcation Is Made.

When the Pennsy lvania railroad has
actually completed its connecting lines to
the Union station. and has them avail
able for use, within the full meaning OF
the law. and has constructed the sub
station in the southwest section of the
city. then. and not before. will the Com

railroad company from the Treasury OF
the United States by the Union station
act toward the cost of the objects under
the act and upon the railroads surrender
of the Mall property occupied by it,
The Commissioners made an announce
ment to that effect yesterday. In March,
following the surrender of the Mall prop
erty. the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
made application for payment Of $1.JO0.-
600, claiming it had completed its part
of the Union station terminal work and
complied with all its agreements under
the act OF Congress. The Commissioners
whose certificatiOn is necessary to these
facts before the money can be paid re-
fused to approve. The requirements We're
not filed. they maintained
At conference of the Commissioners
Yesterday afternoon the second request of
the railroad for this money was consid-
cred. Upon motion OF Commissioner Mac
farland the request was again denied.
The Commissioners contend that while the
Union station and the Washington termi-
nal are ready for occupancy. the connect
ing lines of the railroad are not fully
ready, because the substation in the
southwest section of the city. provided for
by Congress for the convenience of the
Southern passengers. has not been built
as required by law; the New Jersey ave-
nue. bridge has not been constructed and
the last grade crossing has not been re-
moved.
Commissioner Macfarland said that I'M
til these things had been done he could
not sign the certificate required by the
act that the Union station. Washington
terminal and the connecting lines were
ready for occupancy.
The Commissioners were not unanimous,
one voting in favor of the request.

HELPS BANANA TRADE.
Rains in Jamaica Come in Time to
Benefit Crop.

According to reports brought to this
country from Jamaica by the masters of
vessels bringing fruit here, the banana
trade will receive a big jump in the near
future in consequence of the rains that
are now visiting the plantations on the
island. For several months past there
have been no rains of consequence on the
island and the yield from the fruit planta-
tons has been very small.
a large proportion of the crop of ba-
nanas grown on the Island of Jamaica is
imported to this country, many thousand
punches arriving weekly at Baltimore by
lines of ships that carry no other cargoes.
Washington gets its supply of the fruit
from Baltimore. and the fact that rain is
falling in the West Indies is therefore of
much interest to the fruit lovers here.

HEROIC Treatment NEEDED
LITTLE GIRL, FIVE YEARS OF
AGE, INTOXICATED.
Obtains Bottle of Whisky and Swal'

The rain yesterday was responsible TOT
Pearl Morgan becoming Intoxicated. Pearl
is only five years of age, and. of course,
was ignorant of the nature of the con-
tents of bottle she lifted to her mouth.
Her father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Car
roll Morgan. were ready to move their
effects from a Pennsylvania avenue hotel
to t513 9th street about the time the storm
the rain ceased falling, their three chill
dren playing about the rooms

noticed that some of the whisky was gone.
but the children declared they had not
taken any of it. We started away from
the hotel and when we got across the
avenue Pearl was drunk"
Mother Sees Child Stagger.
1t was not until the mother saw the
child stagger that she realized the condi-
ton of the little one. 1t became necessary
for her to carry Pearl part of the way
to their new home and when they reached
there the landlady suggested that the
child needed medical treatment. Mrs. Nor
gan hurried to drug store and asked
the druggist to prescribe, but the latter
suggested that a physician be summoned.
While the mother was at the drug store
the landlady SUNNI oned the ambulance
from the Emergency Hospital.
The physician in charge of the ambu-
lance decided that heroic treatment was
necessary. Little Pearl was hurried to
the hospital and the stomach pump ap-
pied. She was soon relieved of the
liquor.
