CINNaBAR CAUSES GOLD LOSS

An important discovery was re-
Gently made in the Pine Nut district
during a test run of the five stamp
mill of the Pine Nut Consolidated
CO., which throws light on the fail
ure of the milling business that has
been carried on in that section in
the past. 1t is a fact that on some
properties in years gone by, much
gold has been saved at one time or
another but when it came to saving
values from ores that would pan,
ii was another question. A careful
study of this. carried on by f. w.
Emigh during the past week, has re-
suited in a successful determination
of the cause. As explained the ore
carries large quantities of cinnabar
which prevents its successful milling
and TO extract the values must be
put through the cyanide process.

WORLD BEATER PLANNED.
New York to Have the Highest Struc-
ture on the Globe.

New York, July 20.-A slender
tower shooting skyward almost a fifth
of mile, from the top of which for
tunate tenants will be able to pull
down a star to light their offices if
anything goes wrong with the electric
light supply. is planned to replace the
Mills building in Broad street.
The tower will be higher than the
Eiffel tower, whose steel skeleton
pierces the clouds to a height of $50
feet. The new tower will be 1000
feet tall. Beside such an elongated
structure the new Equitable tower
would be dwarfed and the Singer
building appear like brick beside
the Bunker Hill monument.
So far the building has only
reached the picture stage. Ernest
Flagg. who designed the Singer build
ing, has submitted sketches to the
promoters of the lengthy freak. Mr..
Flagg is now in Europe, but on his
return the plans are expected to as
sumo some tangible shape.
The earning capacity Of such a
building would be tremendous, so its
projectors say, and it would need to
be. for million dollars is what 1t will
cost
The area of the new tower at the
base would be one hundred by eighty
feet. The Singer building is sixty five
feet square at the base and the
Equitable is anchored to the earth by
foundations seventy-f1ve by ninety
feet.

DIED FROM HYDROPHOBIA
Little Girl Was Bitten About Six
Weeks Ago.

New York. July 20.-Hydrophobia
has caused the death of Florence
Kirkman, the six-year-old daughter of
Ralph Kirkman, Brooklyn. For hours
before the child was removed from her
home to a hospital, her cries could be
heard all over the neighborhood where
she lived.
Six weeks ago the child was bitten In
the hand by a mongrel dog. She was
playing in the street at the time, toss
ing a ball into the air. AS she stopped
to pick up the ball the dog ran at her
and bit her. The girls mother took
her to a nearby drug store, and had
the wound cauterized. The wound
seemed to heal and nothing more was
thought of the incident until about
week ago, when the girl began to get
spells of dizziness.
Mrs. Kirkman called a physician,
but he thought that the dogs bite had
nothing to do with the child's illness.
Then the child had one CONFUSION
after another. The doctor advised her
removal to a hospital. She was taken
to the Kings county hospital. where
she died.

$1,000 MISSING.
Package Disappeafs From Adams Elk
press Co.. Office.

Des Moines, Ia, July 20.-A pack
age containing $1,000 has disappeared
from the -Des Moines Office of the
Adams Express company. 1t was one
of three identical packages and, while
the other two reached their destina-
ton without mishap, this one has
completely vanished. From all that
can be learned, though several of the
cIeverest detectives in the company's
employ are at work on the case, no
clue has been discovered as to what
has become of the missing $1,000
package.
1t Is understood that the packages
Of currency were consigned by a Des
Moines bank to an outside address and
that this ore was either lost or stolen
from the local Office of the Adams Ex-
press company.

STATUE OF GEN. Lee.
Will Stand Beside Washington's I'm
National Capitol.

New York, July 20.-Ex- Judge George
d. Christian of Richmond, Va, is here
after returning from Providence, r. l.,
where with other members of the Vir-
ginia legislative commission, he in
spected the new Valentine statue of
General Robert E. Lee, designated for
Statuary hall, in the national capitol.
Another member of the commission re-
turning from Providence is Don P. Hal
sey of Lynchburg, a son-in-law of Sen
ator John w. Daniel. The commission
ers were accompanied to Providence by
Edward V. Valentine, the Richmond
sculptor, who designed the statue of
Lee over the generals tomb in the
chapel at Washington and Lee uni
versity, Lexington, Va.
Members of the commission express
themselves as being greatly pleased
with the new statue. Virginia has been
for years represented in statuary hall
by a figure of Washington, but the
other niche to which the old Dominion
is entitled, has all this time been va
cant because the legislature was will
ing to accept none but one of Lee.
When the bill was introduced in the
Virginia general assembly providing for
$40, 900 for a statue of Lee for the sec
ond Virginia niche, many expressed the
opinion that the movement was ILL
timed.
The legislature passed the bill, how
ever, and the commission does not
doubt that the statue will be accept

Is the Object of Chairman Hitchcock's
Western Trip.

Colorado Springs, July 20.-When
Frank H. Hitchcock, chairman Of the
Republican national committee, arrived
here to consult with the members OF
the national committee and chairman
Of national, state and territorial COM
mittees, he was greeted by a large
number of political leaders. He found
assurances from others which made 1t
certain that the two days conference
which opens today will be success.
The men who are to meet Chairman
Hitchcock are as follows: Members
Of the national committee-W. S. Stur-
ges. Arizona; Charles Lavender, Colo
RADIO; Senator w. r. Borah, Idaho;

Nothing of the kind now undertaken
by Mr.. Hitchcock was ever attempted

rival here that it would be his purpose
to have states which are certainly Re
publican assist in campaigning In
neighboring states which may De
doubtful. To that end he Is bringing
the western leaders together. There
will be a general conference at which
the various leaders will exchange ideas
and formulate a system whereby one
state may draw upon the political re-
sources of another. After that MI
Hitchcock will hold individual confer
ences with the representatives of each
of the seventeen states and territories
which are sending men for the political
gatherings
According to Chairman Hitchcock
there has been a lack of ccherence be-
tween western leaders in past cam
paigns. the representative Of eacn
state doing their best to pile uD Re
publican majorities, but not helping
other states which have more difficult
political battles to fight. He said that
he wanted to broaden the responsible
tiles of each of the western Republican
leaders with view of carrying the
whole western region for Taft and
Sherman
When asked what western states ne
regards as safely Republican and what
ones he classed as doubtful. Mr.. Hitch
cock said: Il have determined not to

70 SAVE THE BABIES.
Chicago Places Seventy-five Physicians
in the Field of Effort.

Chicago, July 20.-The Chicago
health department has begun a sys-
tematic warfare on the cause of the
high death rate among infants in this
city.
In the week just passed there were
ISL deaths of children under one year
old, as compared with the record of
III for the corresponding week of last
year. The weekly health bulletin says
regarding this increase in rate:
Much of Chicago's increased infant
mortality rates of the last few years is
due to the increased Slavic population.
Our immediate efforts to further re-
duce the death rate among babies
must therefore be especially directed
to the education of the Slav mother
in the care of her young"
The city council last week provided
a special fund of $4,000 for the hot
weather care of children and accord
ingiy seventy-five physicians will be
placed in the field today.
