DEMING SHELTER
TO RESUME
Report Is Given Out II Will
Start Up in Short
Time.

The announcement Is made
that the National Mining and
Smelling company in Deming
will resume operations at their
plant sometime during the sum-
mer. 1t is being planned to in
crease the capacity of the smel.
ter to three times its present
size, and estimates are now be-
ing made for modern equipment
to be installed. Robert E. Pow
ell, president of the company,
says that copper sulphides will
be treated hereafter in addition
to the carboniferous lead ores to
which the operations have been
confined in the past. The de-
cision to enlarge and resume
operations is on account of the
recent revival of mining opera
tions in this section, and the fact
that Deming has recently secur-
ed better railroad facilities over
the Santa Fe into the big mining
districts, which admit of full ca
pacity ore cars being run to this
point.

Mention OF the Recent Arrivals; What
10 Going On Herr.
The weekly dances at the Merricon-
Gag continue to be very popular with
the younger guests of the house and
those among the summer residents
who are invited to attend these pleas
ant affairs. The dance Of last Fri
cay night proved as enjoyable as any
OF the previous ones this season and
large number Of couples enjoyed
the music Of the Italian orchestra.
One interesting feature of the even
fng's entertainment was the taking OF
the fash-light photograph Of the
dancers and guests on the hotel piaz-
"a. This matter was In charge Of
Mr.. Nelson Gildersleeve Of Brook
lyn, and all are waiting with interest
To see how the plate turned out.
One Of the most popular guests at
at the hotel this season has been,
without question. Mr.. Henry Reichen-
bach of New York, a gentleman who
has done much to contribute to the
amusement and pleasure of the other
guests. In appreciation Of his earn
est efforts to make the clam-bake pic
mic success last week, the guests
presented Mr.. Reichenbach on Thurs
day with handsome briar wood pipe
The stem of the pipe Is encircled by
silver band bearing the motto,
"Merriconeag. 1909" and forms a
very appropriate momento OF the
guests appreciation for what Mr..
Reichenbach has done for them, and
an expression of their good will and
kindly feeling.
In order to correct a false impress
sion which seems to have arisen
from the item of last week it seems
wise to state that the fruit cake on
which the chances were sold at the
picnic was the gift of Mrs. George
Toothaker. and that the tickets were
sold by Miss Carrie o. Gildersleeve
at ten cents each. The winning
card was drawn by Mrs. w. H. Ken
uedy Of New York who wished to in
crease the revenue from Mrs. Tooth
aker's worthy gift still further, so
the cake was cut up and sold to the
picnickers at ten cents a slice. BY
these means fund Of over nine dol.
lars was raised which was turned over
TO the Methodist Ladies Circle which
VIII be contributed to the new chapel
fund.
Among the guests to arrive at the
MerriconeaS last week are Mr.. A. E.
Pierce and family Of New York. Mr..
Pierce, who Is connected with the
New York Sun" is accompanied by
his daughters, the Misses Margheri-
ia, Allene and Ruth NJ. Pierce and
they arrived on Friday.
Mr.. Kenneth j. Howe of Mount
Vernon has been staying at the hotel
since last Saturday. He is Being
entertained by Mr.. F. G.. Cart of the
same city.
!. Mr.. G.. G. Tyler with Miss Tyler
and Miss Keene Of Brookline arrived
here the last Of the week to spend the
remainder of their vacations. They
had expected to remain at the Cape
shore during August, but finding the
Feat intolerable they decided to come
down to Casco Bay, and are greatly
pleased with the change in their ar.
engagements.

for the New York Sun" is a guest at
