PICKLE MAGIC
WORKED WITH ALUM.
Chief Chemist Wiley Tells How
it is Possible To Embalm
Cucumbers.

Washington, Aug. 16.-Dr. Harvey
W. Wiley, chief chemist of the Agri.
cultural Department and guardian OF
the pure food laws has started cru
SADIE against embalmed cucumbers
and gherkins inoculated with alum.
He asserts that withered and half
spoiled cucumbers are given gener-
GUS hypodermics of alum and under
its magic influence the soft, soggy
and generally disreputable pickle of
commerce is pumped out, rejuvena-
ted and becomes so pleasing to the
eye that few persons can resist its al
Turing attractiveness.
Although the board of food and
drug inspection has had the use of
alum as preservative, under consid-
Grafton for several weeks, no decis-
ion has yet been given.
Meanwhile Doctor Wiley is work.
ing assiduously against the embalmed
pickle and the alleged INSCRIPTIONS
'undertakers." Alum, he says, is
one of the lesser known preserva-
tives its use being more circumscrib-
ed than that of benzoate of soda, bor-
ak, formaldehyds and other chemi-
Gals on which manufacturers wax fat,
while the consumers grow lean.
'What benzoate of soda is to the
decaying tomato and borax to the en-
balmed beef, alum is to the limp and
lifeless cucumber" says Doctor Will
ey. "The public does not appreciate
the woes and misery concealed be-
meath the verdant jacket of the inno-
cent-looking pickle"
Doctor Wiley has many supporters
in his fight against the reiuvenated
gherkin, once gaunt emaciated and
weary of 'life's fitful fever"
Among them is DR.. H. A. Hare, of
Philadelphia, a distinguished author
and lecturer on therapeutics, who
says that alum has its uses but among
them is not the bolstering Of forlorn
cucumbers that they may become
succulent pickles.
81 have had evidence presented to
me-" said DR.. Hare, at hearing be-
fore the board, to, show that pickles
frequently contain quantities of alum
sufficient to carry into the body of
one cucumber as much as from one
to five grains of alum, and | would
consider every dose to be deleterious,
even if not repeated.
When asked by DR.. Wiley what he
considered the maximum dose that
could be administered without injury
DR.. Hare said that single doses of
less than one grain, might not be in
furious but added that no one would
feed him such doses. AS he was not
appearing as an expert against alum,
DR.. Hare's testimony made a deep
impression.

veil One on Lawn of Public
Building in st. Charles.
ST. Louis Republle.
Former Judge Jacob Zeisler, of ST.
Charles, one of the original thirteen
Republican war horses in Missouri, is
to erect statue of Champ Clark,
ardent Democrat because he got a
new Post Office for St. Charles.
Clark, done in marble, is to stand
alongside monument to Planchette,
in the yard of the Government build
ing.
Congressman Clark, who repre-
sents the Ninth District and spends
most Of his time in lashing his Repub-
lican contemporaries, hasn't been
consulted, but his friends are conf
dent he will not refuse the honor.
They also have promised not to raise
the cry of tainted money"
st. Charles suffered for years be-
cause of the lack of a fine Post Office.
There was little prospect of anybody
but Democrat ever holding down
the job at Washington, so a nonpar-
tisan appeal was made to the Honor
able Champ Clark to get them what
they wanted.
OF course, Champ got it and first
to suggest monument to the popu-
lar hero was Zeisler. 1t is also pro-
posed to erect a monument to Plan
Ghetto, the legendary founder of st.
Charles.
Zeisler has besn a Republican so
many years that memory of man run
meth not to the contrary, He was
Mayor of St. Charles lS74-77 and has
since that time held many offices.

BUFFALO IS CONTINUING DRIFT

Development Of the property
Of the Buffalo Mining company
in the Saltese section has been
resumed and a force of five men
set to work under the manage.
ment of Ole H. Linn of this
city. About 225 feet of drifting
will be done and it is believed
that this will be sufficient to
bring the face under the show
ing made at the foot of a shaft
in the upper workings. The
drift is now in we'll over 1000
feet and the ledge at this point
shows a width of about 60 feet.
The property is located near
Saltese and large amount of
development has already been
done. All Of this work, how
ever, is at comparatively shall
low depth with the exception of
the drift which is now being
continued. A good showing Of
ore has been made in all the
workings.

interesected towards the end Of
the year when drifting will COM
mence. Progress is being made
at the rate of from 200 to ESQ
feet a month and a force of eight
men is now engaged. For some
time development was hampered
by a shortage of water power
but this has been overcome by
the installation of an electric
motor.
The property is located near
Burke and has a splendid show
ing of ore in tn upper workings.
The tunnel is being driven under
the direction of John H. Nord-
quist Of this city.

EAST HERCULES WILL OPERATE

A large amount of supplies

and development is to be re-

ton to continue the crosscut tun-
mel to the ledge when drifting
will commence.
The mine has an unusually
good surface showing. A con-
siderable amount of develop
ment has already been done and
some good ore exposed. Devel.
opment is to be resumed under
the management of George
Gourman.

F|ND LEDGE IN FULL MOON

The Bellevue ledge has been
encountered on the property Of
the Full Moon Mining company
near Burke. The ledge was en-
countered at a distance Of $50
feet from the portal of the tun-
mel and shows good values in
carbonates. The crosscut is be-
ing pushed forward as rapidly
as possible to encounter the main
ledge which is believed to lie
about 200 feet ahead. Future
development will depend to a
large extent on the showing
made when the ledge is encoun-
tered.
The property is thoroughly
equipped with a compressor and
all the necessary equipment for
extensive work. The principal
owners are located in Paluose
City, Wash.

BUNKER HILL FEDERAL SUITS

In it's answer to the suit of the
January Mining company for
the recovery of $780, 600 and
the possession of the great ore
body Of. the Wardner-Kellogg
section, the Bunker Hill & Sulli-
van Mining Company asks that
the Federal Mining & Smelling
company be made party de-
PENDANT as the latter company in
it's San Carlos and Overlap &C.
tion asks for 81, 300, 900 for the
same ore that the January COM
pany claims the Bunker Hill has
taken from its veins.
The Bunker Hill company
denies that $1,000, worth of
ore has been taken from the
vein in question. The gross val
ues of the ore taken is said to be
not more than SIS, 600, 600 and the
net value thereof not more than
$4,000, 900.
A denial is made to all of the
allegations Of the complaint.
The suit will probably come up
for trial at the present session
of the district court.

GOLDEN EAGLE WORK IMPROVES

The drift on the Golden Eagle
mine on the Montana side of the
divide is now in about $50 feet
and the ore exposed some time
ago continues to hold out splen-
didly. Throughout the whole of
this distance the ore shows from
two to four feet, most of which
is of a clean shipping grade. At
present a crosscut is being
driven to the footwall. It is be-
lieved that at this point the
ledge is about Is feet wide. If
the ground on the footwall side
is softer it is probable that the
drift will be continued on this
side.
The property consists of eight
claims through which the ledge
has been traced for a distance
of 5000 feet. A considerable
amount of development has been
done and some good ore exposed
in the upper workings. 1t is es-
timated that the drift will have
to be extended for about $50 feet
before a point under the upper
workings is reached. Develop
ment is being done under the
management of William Hutch
inson.

KEYSTONE NEARING ORE BODY

The lower drift of the Key

the Montana side of the divide
is now in over $500 feet. The
whole face is in ore showing re-
turns of from six to 10 per cent
lead and about two ounces in sill.
yer to the ton. At this point a
recent crosscut shows the ledge
to have a width of about IA feet.
About 200 feet of work remains
to be done before the showing
in the upper workings is en-.
countered at a depth Of nearly
1000 feet.
Over 100000 worth of ore
has been shipped from the upper
workings and it is believed that
by the time the present tunnel
reaches a point below the upper
ore exposures a big mine will be
opened up. Two shifts are
steadily engaged. The mine is
connected with the Northern
Pacific railroad by a good wagon
road and is being developed un-
der the management of Charles
A. Pooley.
