They Are Onto Their Jobs.

It is announced that between
now and the LIST of November,
every store in Kansas will be Wis.,
tied by a pure food inspector, and
everything in the store passed
upon and pronounced good or bad.
1t is fortunate for the grocery
men that the inspectors do not
come in fly time, or when vege-
tables and other things are ex-
posed outside the doors for the
pleasure of stray dogs and the
accumulation of street refuse. 1t
seems that the food inspectors
are onto their jobs, and know
just what time in the year to
make their visits.

Tho Difference I'm Luck.

An Ohio doctor went to bed
after a hard DAYS work, and had
troubled dreams. He kicked
around in his sleep a good deal,
finally fell out of bed. The dis
lance to the floor, which was
covered with a carpet, was per-
haps a foot and a half, and the
shock killed him. A tramp was
stealing a ride on the rods OF a
freight train near lola. He lost
his hold anu fell between the
rails. He fell lengthwise of the
track, and fourteen cars passed
over him. Every stitch of cloth
ing was torn from him, even to
his shoes and Socks, but he was
not injured in the least.

a good grade of zinc ore.
Heap-O'Brien Mining Co. is
making arrangements to build a
mill on it's lease south OF the
Newland mill.
Big Chief Mill on the Peter
Clabbcr land is running steadily
and turning out high grade lead
and zinc ores.
Mr.. Thos. Timothy, of the
Common-Law mine has returned
from Quency and will start up
the property again.
Portion of the Lucille mill is
now under cover and the con-
struction of the balance is being
pushed as fast as possible.
-. Gov. Samuel J. Crawford re-
ports that he expects to start
drilling on his land to the north
of the NJ. K. & T. this fall.
Ed. Hamilton, of Galena, has
secured a lease on ten acres OF
the Sunburst Mining Company's
land, and started to work on 1t
this week.
The Consolidated Mining Co.
of Miami, has bought the In
diana mill and is moving it to its
lease on the Baxter Royalty Co.
land west of the Golden Hen
lease.
The Nebraska M. & ID. Co.
sold its property this week to
Sherman Sanders, Of Omaha,
Neb., who it is understood will
push the development and put
this property into the producing
list again.
One of the best records in the
camp is being made at the E. T..
Sweeney mine. west OF the Old
Abe mine, where the ore has
proven to be much better than
the average and where the mill
is kept going steadily on high
grade ore.
Work resumed this week ON
the Cherokee mine, just north OF
the Alabama lease, on the
Sweeney property. This IS
where the lead and silicate crops
out on the surface and where
Scott and West made such a
good showing while they had
the property under lease.
The Baxter Royalty Co. has
leased out the Joanna Mine to
Bragg and associates, who are
installing machinery to put the
property into operation at once.
This mire holds the record tor
sleet lead production and no
doubt the parties who have
secured the lease will put it back
to its old time production.
Ben Brooks, of the Old Abe
Mining & Mill Co., returned
from Kansas City, Saturday last,
and started up the mill Monday
at full capacity. The recent
operations at this property have
demonstrated it to be one OF the
big mines of the district, and
reflects credit on the new man
agement, which has put it into
the producing class once more.
After "a long tedious periad OF
developing, the 81 Mill & Mining
Co.. mine, is now reported to be
in condition to straighten out
for a steady run. The main ore
body has been thorough pros
pected and the ore blocked out,
so that an accurate estimate can
now be made of the ore in sight
and, the probable output for
some time to come.

1t will be a race between the
Good Luck and the Chicago

make the first turn-in, as the
latter's mill will go into COM
mission at about the same time
as the Good Luck. The COM
pletion of the Chicago-Quapaw
mill will give new life to the
southwest corner of the camp, as
things in that end have been
mighty quiet during the past
year.
The price of ore is steadily adj
vancing and with the reports OF
the consumption of spelter II
looks as if prices would become
normal in a short time. The
production has been curtailed by
the closing of many mills in the
older camps, and until such time
as zinc ore gets back to it:
normal position, there is moi
much likelihood that these mills
will start to produce until this
stage is reached.

long run at the Madison Square theatre.
1t was subsequently, disclosed at Powers

Music" was just the play for his stalwart
and handsome charge. The work is by
Charles Henry Barnley. and the story
may be briefly told
In a KensingtOn flat there lived two
John Smiths, one a curate. and the other
sportively inclined young man with a
liking for the race track Both the Mr.
Smiths were married to young and at
tractive Mrs Smiths, and, as both Mrs

them late at night during a heavy fog
