CLEVELAND.

An article full of humorous and in
teresting anecdotes about Grover
Cleveland by Jesse Lynch Williams
appears in the April American Maya
zine In speaking of the last days of
the great statesman, Mr.. Williams
says
Cicero in De Senectute' tells of the
pleasures and satisfactions of old age
but his own latter years, saddened
by political strife, were ended at the
hands of paid assassins, who found
him an unresisting victim, alone in
his country seat.
TT is rare that we find in history
a great public leader whose life was
more completely rounded or whose
death was more beautiful than that
of our late president. Full OF years
mellow, serene, loved by his friends
revered by his country and admired
by the whole world, he died as ordi-
nary people die, in his own home, sur
rounded by those he loved most. His
death, like his chief characteristic in
life, was normal. But for the very
reason that he was "a man of common
qualities raised to the nth power hi.
example in history should be the more
useful to the sons of men"

Mr.. ALEX HALL Of
BUTTE
TWELVE YEARS AGO HE THOUGHT
HE WAS GOING BLIND-CASE
PRONOUNCED HOPELESS.

Mr. Hall is a successful real estate
and mining man of Butte; moved there
from Helena u years ago. He was one
of the promoters of the BallaklaVa
Mining company, now operating one
of the richest mines in Butte. This
property was formerly owned by the
Catholic church of Helena. Mr.. Hall
thinks he has a very promising prop
erty, which he is now developing at
Radersburg, Mont. While speaking of
his property at Radersburg he caught
sight of DR.. Dodd, whom he greeted
warmly and then proceeded to inquire
as to the doctors success here. 1t was
noticed that he appeared especially
pleased when DIR. Dodd told him that
he was more than satisfied with his
business in Missoula. He assured the
doctor that he was glad for him as
well as for the sake of those fortunate
enough to take advantage of his visit
here He then told the following story:
II thought | was going to lose my
eyesight ~ years ago. After consulting
several doctors and receiving no en-
enlargement I called upon DR.. Dodd,
who at that time occupied offices in
the same building | did, the OWsley
block After very careful examina-
ton DR.. Dodd told me that there was
nothing very serious the matter with
my eyes and that proper glasses, worn
constantly, would restore them, and
that was all I needed. Now, DR.. Dodd
had only recently come to Butte, and
! confess that I had little confidence
in his glasses benefiting me, but his
fee was reasonable and I gave him an
order, thinking that perhaps | might
derive some benefit from them Well,
to cut a long story short, his fee would
have been reasonable had I been able
to have paid it. had he made it 10000.
7 never had had good sight, only
never realized it until got his glasses.
DR. Dodd has fitted me since and l go
up and have him look over my eyes
every year and I never miss an oppor-
tunity to tell what godsend his
glasses and knowledge have been to
me"
DIR. Dodd may be consulted free at
the Missoula hotel until April rs.

TURKISH PEOPLE ARE BROUGHT
FACE TO FACE WITH CIVIL WAR
Conflict Between Mussulman Piety and the Political Ideas
of the West Have Precpitated Crisis the Out
come of Which Is as Ye Extremely
Observation-Disclosures Develop

Constantinople, April 21.-The con-
flict between Mussulmen piety and
the political idea of the west has
brought the Turkish people to the
0verge of civil war. Zeal for the faith
has been unloosened and the ADJUST
ment of the sultan's relations to the
committee of union and progress will
probably only postpone the armed
struggle between the deliverers of the
ancient teachings of the prophets and
those urging the teachings of western
Europe.
The sultans primary demand is to
'remnin the constitutional sovereign,
with all the spiritual powers of the
Califiate and liberal allowance for his
household. He also asks for various
minor guarantees, which it would not
be difficult to grant.
The demand of the committee is
that the sultan offer no resistance
whatever and submit Internationally.
The Saloniki committee, which is
the backbone of the whole progressive
movement, is largely military, and It's
most important civilian members are
with the army. Some of the cabinet
members. including Rifaat Pasha, the
foreign minister, are active constltu-
tionalists. Tewfik Pasha, the grand
vizier. who personally is most agree
able to the sultan and to military
men. and who is looked upon as both
benevolent and honest, has under
taken negotiations for compromise.
He has not been able to proceed very

TUNNEL WILL SOLVE
PROBLEM
BIG BORE THROUGH MOUNTAINS
IN BRITISH COLUMBIA WILL
AID MINING INDUSTRY.

Spokane, April 21.-Competent en-
CHEERS declare that the three-mile
tunnel to penetrate the mountain be-
tween Greenwood and Phoenix, B. c.,
upon which the preliminary work is
now under way, will provide prac-
teal means of extracting ores at
great depth from numerous properties,
and they predict also that it will open
possibilities to merit the attention of
the mining world.
The bore is projected by the Green
wood-Phoenix Tramway company of
Chicago, to which the taxpayers of
Greenwood have just voted a bonus
of $4,000, to be paid in three install
ments, as follows; $4,000 at 1900 feet,
$4,000 at 5000 feet and 900 when
the city limits of Phoenix are reached.
The first section is to be completed
November /, 1911. New York and
Chicago parties have under-written
bonds to the extent of 100000, which
is the amount required to construct
and equip the tunnel.
Compressors and electric drills are
being installed at the Greenwood end
of the tunnel and it is given out that
construction work will begin in a
short time. AS the undertaking does
not involve any unusual engineering
difficulties, it is believed that rapid
progress will be made from the start.
The tunnel will be large enough to
carry 10000 tons of ore daily, and be-
yond the first section it will carry
ore on a tonnage and freight basis
| 1t will also be a tramWay for the
| carrying of ores from the various
mines contiguous to the route of the
bore.
Considerable work has already been
done on the mineralized zone which
will be crosscut by the tunnel, and
while this has been expensive the
value of the ore is estimated at more
than 100000. This gives an indica-

Sense of Relief.

Constantinople, April 21,-The receipt
of the news here that the American
government had ordered the cruisers
Montana and North Carolina to Alex
andretta for the protection of Ameri
cans has brought satisfaction and a
sense of security to Americans here and
in the Syrian coast cities of Mersina,
Beirut and AleXandretta, whittier the
information has been forwarded. The
trouble may be over before the crus-
ers arrive. but there is also a chance
that in two or three weeks civil war
may be begun. Great Britain, France
and Italy already have Warships on
this coast, while Germany is sending
vessels and, in addition, the great
powers maintain guard ships at Con-
stantinople.
The consuls and the consular agents
stationed on the Syrian coast sent in
kilograms today declaring that the
missionaries were receiving strong
protection at the hands of the Turkish
authorities ]. B. Jackson, the Ameri-
can consul at Leppo, however eX
pressed some concern for the mission
aries in outlying stations, who have
given asylum to Christian refugees. At
a number of places the conditions are
not yet sufficiently quiet to permit
these refugees to leave the stations and
as a result the missionaries are still
exposed to the possibility of mob at
tack.

and 500 feet in length, averaging $35
the ton, was opened up on the 1000
foot level a few days ago. This
would indicate that deep mining in
British Columbia pays. The ore runs
down similarly to that in the Occur
d'Alenes. 1t increases in size or in
value or both with depth.
Graham B. Dennis, a capitalist of
Spokane, and owner of the Old Do
minion mine in eastern Washington,
now being worked under lease, was
the first to discover that the ore
bodies in the Boundary district, the
Couer d'Alenes and eastern Washing
ton camps We're deep mining PROPOSE
tons. He made the announcement
years ago, when the ore apparently
pinched out in the levels on the Do
mnion property. His prediction has
been verified in Republic camp in
Washington, as well as in several
camps in the Occur d'Alenes and the
opening of the mineral zone in south
eastern British Columbia with a tun-
mel at a depth Of 1900 feet will, it is
generally believed, fully confirm his
theory so far as that part of the ore
belt is concerned.
When the first announcement of the
tunnel between Greenwood and Phoe-
nix was made about IS months ago,
many of the doubling Thomases
shook their heads, and when no eff
forts were made to start work at the
time. they began TO feel that their
predictions had been confirmed. They
did not know then that the company
had encountered numerous obstacles
like inducing the various owners to
go into a consolidation on anything
like reasonable terms. Aside from this
it also required time to make inves-
legations. which included the exam
lining of most of the big mining tun-
house. the Sutro, the Two Brothers
at Virginia camp, Cal, the Capital
prize at Georgetown CAL the Yak az
Leadville, and the Roosevelt deep tun-
mel at Cripple Creek, Col.
Local capita lin the Greenwood and
Phoenix camps proved the surface
values and demonstrated the posi-
billties, leaving it to large capita
/ and competent management to con
( solidate a number of properties and
work them in a systematic way and
| turn out a big tonnage at the mini
mum Of costs, as has been do re in the
case of the low grade copper belt.

suits should not prove as gratifying

ton of what may be expected when
the belt is bored in a systematic man
ner. The exploring at the Greenwood
and Phoenix camps to the depth of
more than 1000 feet will start deep
mining in the Boundary district, and
the result will be the operation Of
properties with showings of gold and
silver, now overshadoWed by low
grade copper ore taking.
The company considers itself for
tunate in the selection of a site to
start the tunnel The Str2thmore
mine, where the portal of the tunnel
will be, has the record of producing
the richest and finest ore in British
Columbia. 1t won the trophy cup at
the annual exhibit at Nelson. B. c.,
also the championship cup at the in
terstate fair in Spokane, in competi-
ton with the high-grade gold and sill
yer mines of Idaho, oregon Washing
ton and British Columbia.
The tunnel will reach No. / vein
of the Strathmore mine, from which
rich ore has been shipped, in 800 feet,
and will crosscut II other veins in
the first section of the bore, which
in 5000 feet. These veins have been
proven at depths ranging from 100 to
600 feet. Eight thousand tons of ore,
averaging better than 500 a ton, has
been shipped from this belt, but the
operation was expensive, the mining
costing $40 a ton, while the smelter
and freight charges averaged s15 a
ton.
Announcement is made that the tun-
mel company can easily reduce the
cost of mining to $40 a ton by the
consolidation of the properties and
the deep tunnel, while the freight
and smelter charges will be not more
also that there will be sufficient ore
to warrant the installation of a lead
smelter at Greenwood, which would
receive a great deal of custom ore and
stimulate the development of gold
and silver mining all over the bound

A PLEA FOR THE BAT.

The bat, as everyone knows, is
hated by women, particularly, just a
little less than the rat, and all men
have their hands turned against him.
Now. according to Van Norden-The
World Mirror-the government has
discovered that the nocturnal Chi
ropter instead of being useless and
worthless, is really most valuable. He
is the inveterate enemy of all insects
that fly at night, Vernon Bailey, of
the biological survey of the depart
ment of agriculture, in recent investi-
cations found that bats shot in the
evening after flying for 20 minutes
are found with stomachs so gorged
with mosquitoes, gnats and black flies
that it was difficult to figure how
they could eat any more.
