bELLEHLEN IS

OPERATOR OF DISTRICT SAYS IT
WILL BECOME ONE OF THE
STABLE ONES OF STATE-RE-

elopment by means of sinking on
a well defined vein. Regarding the
district in it's entirety, MI. Convey
says:
While not making any preten-
sions of being a bonanza camp, the
district of Bellehelen still continues
actively in mine development. The
Observation-Disclosures Mines company
is shipping steadily and has twelve
men on its pay roll. The Scioto
Mining and Milling company is car
rying on extensive development
work and at the present time has
an expert in the district looking over
orner desirable properties with a
view of purchasing those that will
prove valuable in the event of the
company building a mill, which is
its avowed purpose.
"A good custom mill in this dis
trict would help immensely, as there
are a large number of properties
held by men who would be able to
take out ore in sufficient quanti-
ties to keep it running. Of course
everything now hinges on the advent
of the railroad and the advantage
of reasonable shipping facilities.
"At the Horseshoe, on the Har-
wood property, there is a force of
men carrying on development work,
in the nature of blocking out ore and
preparing the mine for a good ship
per as soon as the railroad is built.
This mine is undoubtedly a great
property and Mr.. HARDWOOD is to be
congratulated or the possession OF
it. Besides these mines that are ELI
gible to the producing list there are
a number of promising prospects
which will undoubtedly make mines
in the same class.
Capital is a desirable thing in
the development of such ground, but
those that are. owned by individual
prospectors are being opened up as
rapidly as possible. under the existing
conditions. Taken all in all Belle
helen will undoubtedly make one of
the stable districts of the state in
the course of time

Held to Grand
Jury For
Assault

The trial Of the Austrians ar
rested while committing a murder
GUS assault near Riepetown on Tues
day morning was concluded in
Justice Cartwright's court yesterday
afternoon, with result that Rodman,
to whose wrist the arresting officer
found the loaded hose attached, was
bound yer to the grand jury in the
sum of $500. Unable to furnish
the amount, he went to Jail to await
the next grand jury. The other
Austrian arrested with Rodman was
dismissed, the prosecution failing to
prove hat he was implicated in the
attack, although no reasonable
doubt exists but that he was. The
only eye witnesses to the trouble
who were not implicated in it were
two Portuguese. These managed to
get way from the district before the
hearing. Attorneys Reeves and
Billings succeeded in entangling the
Austrians in the course of cross eX
animation, making it plain to hear
ers that a story had been prepared
to clear Rodman and the other Aus
trian. During the afternoon the in
erpreter was accused by Billings of
coaching the witnesses in their
answers for the benefit of the de-
PENDANT. This together with the diff
ficulty had during the trial in secur-
ing interpreters afforded ground for
criticism of the prosecution in not
securing the presence of a competent
and impartial interpreter from out
side before going into the case.

Don't Scold.

Mother, don't scold. You can be
firm without scolding your children;
you can reprove them for their faults;
you can punish them when necessary
but don't get into the habit of perpet-
ually scolding them.
1t does them no good. They soon
become so accustomed to fault-fnd-
ing and scoldipg that they pay no
attention to it. Or, which often hap
pens. they grow hardened and reck-
less in consequence of it. Many a
naturally good disposition is ruined
by constant scolding, and many a
child is driven to seek evil associates
because there is nc peace at home.
Mothers, with their many cares and
perplexities, often fall into the habit
unconsciously. but it is sad habit
for them and their children. Watch
yourselves, and don't indulge in this
unfortunate and often uninteutional
manner of addressing your children.
Watch even the tones of your voice
and above all watch your hearts, for
we have divine authority for saying
that "out of the abundance Of the
heart the mouth speaketh."

Much New Paving.

Upon invitation of Mayor Woods,
The Climax man took stroll over the
civ Sunday to look at the many new
cement pavements being put down.
Important work is being done on near
ly every street in the city, which is
evidence of pu b C spirtedness,
commendable, indeed. As rule the
paving is Of the very best quality and
workmanship, thong in few places it
is rather thin. To lay this work thin,
is both waste of time and material, for
it soon cracks and comes to pieces.
When properly constructed, it will last
life time, and it is economy to have
the very best made Richmond will
soon have more concrete walks than
any city 10 Central Kentucky. and
our people should feel very proud OF
this fact.

A Plain Proposition.

"Shall the City of Richmond con-
tinue to rent school buildings" is a
question the voters are soon to be
called upon to decide. The following
facts are worthy of consideration as an
object lesson.
There were four grades, LIST, I'd, Sd
aud 4th, in the Barlow Building last
year, children crowded out OF the main
building. Those four grades crowded
into small rooms averaged 10i pupils.
To teach these students cost S2,O5O for
grade teachers, $3.50 for rent 500 extra
for music and at least 500 for extra
expenses, total of g, 700, or tuition of
$25.96 per pupil or g SO per month.
The corresponding grades in the
Caldwell Building averaged 146 stu
dents. The cost for teaching was ex-
actly Sl,S50, tuition OF Sl2.67, or 81.
per month.
At the last rate, $l2.67 per pupil it
would have cost to teach the average of
lO4 students in the Barlow Building
sl.3l7. 1t did cost 81 700. The school
lost Sl,3S3 in cash by renting. Add to
this the loss in service of the four
splendid teachers in that building who
by the very nature of the equipment
could not render the city their best
If the city grows during the next
year as it has in the past year there
will need to be added at least two more
white teachers and one more colored
teacher This will add at least anoth-
er $1,000 to the money lost. These are
facts to which it is folly to close our
eyes.
As an example of the difference be-
tween renting and owning our build
ing, consider what has been done in
the Colored School this year. Last
year the School Board rented three
small rooms outside, and provided
three teachers. The children were
mi-ersbly housed and cared for. This
last summer two basement rooms in
the Colored Building were fitted up at
an expense of 5000, and now two teach
ers are doing the same work that three
did before and the children are well
housed and cared for. The saving to
the city of one teachers salary, rents
and other expenses this year is over
$400. This is one reason the schools
are costing the city this year nearly
So 500 less than last year.
The schools are costing too much
money 10 run them, and ii is all due
to uneconomic housing.
In the Colored Building there are 8
rooms of standard size. and three
rooms l5x26 feet, about half SIZE.
There can be placed only about 20 pc
pills in each OF these little rooms; and
yet it takes teacher.
There is only one economic way to
run school system. The room should
be Of such a siz. and with such equip
ment that each teacher can give 8
maximum Of service.
These fac should be carefully con-
sidered by every voter who desires to
see the sch ools of the city raised to
their highest efficiency and by the
voter who desires to see the schools
run for the least possible expense. 1t
is plain business proposition.

Where the Money Goes.

If one will only make few trips to
the L. q N. station and see the num-
Der of good ladies climbing off the in
coming trains loaded down with big
bundles, he will readily understand
why our home merchants sometimes
complain about dull business. The
Climax man was at the local station q
few nights ago and estimated that
about % ladies got of the 7:20 train,
and each had large bundles of goods.
and hat boxes. Had the money spent
by that one delegation been spent with
Richmond merchants, it would have
been a great help to the home men,
to say nothing of the fact that the coin
would have been left here where hus-
band or brother would have had an
other chance at it. All this talk about
being unable TO find what they want
in Richmond is mere bosh-people sim
ply think it sounds bigger TO say they
bought dress or hat in Cincinnati.
II Richmond is good enough to make
your money in, it certainly is good
enough to spend it in. so think about
this before giving your money to
strangers.
