Miner Killed at CheweIah

Chewelah, Feb. 19.-One man
was killed and one injured in a
premature explosion at the Blue
Star mine, about three and one-hali
miles east of Chewefah, Thursday
night.
The day shift working at the
face of 6OO-foOt tunnel consisted OF
two men, JAY Michael and Pearl
yesterday. Just before going off
the day shift, they had put in a
round of ten machine holes, loaded
them and to each hole attached a
four and one half-inch fuse.
Michael was lighting the fuse at
the face of the tunnel Mr.. East
erday stood about six feet behind
Michael, holding an extra light so
that if the latter's light should he
extinguished by the splitting of the
fuse yesterday could furnish him
a new light. Michael was lighting
the last or tenth fuse when the ex-
plOsion occurred.
When Michael came to he went
to the hoist shaft and signaled to
the engineer that an accident had
occurred. The engineer immedi-
ately sent down a man to investi-
gate, who found Mr.. Eas .erday
lying about 40 feet back from the
face of the tunnel unconscious. He
was Immediately taken to the sur.
face and died in about three-quar-
ters of an hour from injuries re-
ceived about the head.

Reduce Fusion Mixture

The front page of the Mining
Science, of Denver, Col. is taken
up with an lad" description of
Reduce Fusion Mixture, scientific
crucible method for determining
values of ore on the ground with
small expense and without being
compelled to await the result of
tests made by assays at points a
great distance from the mine, and
knowing the value to prospectors
in this section of simple process
of this nature we quote part OF
the virtues accredited to this mix
ture:
"Reduco Fusion Mixture deter
mines to a considerable degree OF
accuracy the quantity of gold, sill
Ger, lead, bismuth. anthony,
nickel, COBALT, tin, platinum or any
other reducible metal in any ore.
1t is the only device on the market
that will successfully and thor
oughly do the work on tellurides,
sulphides and the more refractory
ores. It will prevent you over
looking many valuable ores, be-
cause it makes tests for 5 cents that
heretofore cost S..
"The process consists in pulver-
izing the ore, mixing it with the
fusion powder, placing the mixture
in "A crucible and igniting the
whole The metal in the ore will

should be panned from the residue,
when they are readily identified"

The receipts of last months ore

been more than any month since
the mine started four years ago. It
is reported that $500 gold ore is

is face of ore exposed nearly 10O

We see recent cartoon illus
trating what will be the result if
eggs should continue to increase in
price. In one portion of the pic
ture shipment of eggs to the sub
treasury is being made under a
heavy guard. In another terrible
crash on the stock exchange is oc-
casioned by the breaking of a bas-
ket of eggs. And so on. The high
prices of eggs should bring to the
mind of the farmer more than ever
the advantages to be gained from
studying poultry culture. The
Pacific northwest needs more eggs.
and raisers can derive wealth from
the thought, if they put it into
practice. However, knowledge is
needed. It is not merely a matter
of buying a few hens and giving
them place to lay. Just as the
old hit-or-miss orchards brought
their owners little profit. so the
ignorant poultryman found that
eggs were not valuable to him fir 1n1
a monetary standpoint. The thor
ough .horticulturist has made a
financial success of the business,
and the same is true of the poultry
keeper.-New West Trade.

In Elmwood Township

The editor spent Friday and Sat-

agreeably surprised to find condi-

route taken over what they were
On our last visit here about five
years ago. Another thing we had
NOT noticed was that the section
Of country between Blackburn and
Emma Is almost solidly settled by
Germans, many OF whom cannot
read English, although they have
German dailies and weeklies.
We were Hospitality entertained
Friday at dinner by a MI. Boden-
stab and kept " night by Mr..
and Mrs. L. II. .Steinkuhler, who re-
side on the old Mike McGinnis
place. This place, at the time of
our last visit contained only a two
room residence-aged. Now we
found Mr.. Steinkuhler had erected
a nice, substantial residence, large
barn and sheds, good fences, trees
etc. The place was unrecogn'z-
able and showed the wonderfule eff
fects of hard work. There were
also many other handsome new res!
denees in the community.

entertained at the home OF Mr.. and

As is generally known, France
has the best and most complete
road system in the world, and it's
splendid public highways fill wi h
envy and admiration all foreigners
particularly those from the United
States, where the roads in general
are about the worst in any country
protesting to be civilized. The
superiority Of the French road
system is said to be due to the taas
that the construction and mainten-
ance of the principal roads is car
ried on under the supervision of a
corps of experts in road-construc-
ton, who find in their profession
opportunities for advancement and
distinction such as could not and
does not exist under a local road
administration. French roads ara
good, not because of any superior
ity OF ~roadmaking material nor be-
cause the French people possess
any special talent for road build
ing, but because the initiative. in
matters pertaining to the public
highway is taken by highiy-.rainsd
engineers and administrators, un-
der the direction OF the National
Government.
