STORE
BLOCK MAY
Be SOLD

Some big deals in Pacific ave-
nue. real estate are pending. and
announcement of their consumma-
tion may be expected most any
time now. Real estate men say
the market is picking up rapidly,
and that there is a fine prospect
for a good movement.
The largest deal in the wind is
for the Peoples Store block. John
s. Baker is said to be negotiating
with the Peoples Store company
with reference to erecting a Mg
building for the store on his @
street lots, adjoining the Tacoma
theater, recently cleared and ex-
cavated. II they can come to an
agreement, 1t is likely the Peoples
Store block will be sold to Los
Angeles and Seattle capitalists for
an office building. The price will
be a record-breaker for avenue
realty.
The southwest corner OF Pacific
and Fifteenth is also under an
option now for 500. 900. and the
deal may be closed soon.
Business and real estate iuen
are manifesting more optimism
right now than at any time since
the panic two years ago.

Splendid Book.

"Timbering and Mining" by w. H. Storms, is considered one of the best and most practical books on Amer ican methods of mine timbering published. The author has collected his data from the mines and presents the subject in concise, simple and comprehensive form. It is a book whicE can be appreciated by the everyday mining man, as well as the student and technical man.
 The book covers in detail the fol- lowing subjects: timber used in min ing; preservation of timbers; drifting and drift sets; driving in running ground; structural steel in mine workings; shafts; bucket dumping; framing shaft timbers; bearers in shafts; mining large bodies by the "Open Cut or Glory Hole" system; the overhead and underhand methods of stoping veins; and all other methods in modern use. Special cases are selected and described fully and the entire book is finely illustrated with drawings and photo graphs. It can be obtained from the Salt Lake Mining Review.

Both the department of the interior and the department of agriculture announce that there will be no difficulty to distinguish be- tween the proper and fraudulent use of the mining laws. The benefit of every doubt is given to miners. The greatest care is used before any re- port adverse to miners is accepted by the general land office as basis for charges against mining claims. Only claimants who are perverting and misusing the mining laws for fraudulent purposes have anything to fear.

ON THE PACIFIC COAST.
Expression OF Congress in Favor Of
Such Action.

Washington, Feb. 16-One-half Of
the United states navy should be kept
on the Pacific coast at all times, in the
opinion Of the senate. An amendment
to the naval bill was agreed to tonight
providing that in the discretion Of the
president one-hah Of the navy shall be
kept in Pacific waters. so far as prac-
ticable. The president already has the
authority TO so divide the fleet, but
the amendment amounts to an cNpres-
sion OF congress IN favor Of such ac-
ton.
AS introduced originally the division
Of the navy was mandatory.
MIR. Flint said he understood that
the people Of the Atlantic coast di1 not
care for the fleet and the people on the
Pacific did.
"Woull half Of the feet on the Pa
cifo coast keep the Japanese out OF
California;" ?" asked Senator Nelson.
II think So" replied Mr.. F'ipt.
Urging the adoption { the provision.
Mr. Fulton declared that there are
great interests on the Pacific coast
which need protection and that there
is more danger OF attacks being made
on that coast than on the Atlantic
seaboard.
At Mr.. Hale's suggestion the pro-
vision was amended 30 as to leave the
question Of the division to the secre-
tary Of the navy and later this was
amended. at Mr. Bacon's suggestion SO
as 10 give the discretion to the presi-
dent
