Misleading Statements Corrected.

Deputy sheriff Brust gives out the
following statement regarding some
misleading reports and current rumors
of fstic encounter in the county jail
and the alleged, or rather imaginary
"deeply planned attempted escapes of
the two prisoners Mundt and Nichols"
Mr.. Brust says:
Editor Review" According to state
ments published last week it would
appear that I was not in or at the Jail
at all and had to be informed of what
was going on by Mr.. Rolwes. Now,
this is entirely untrue. was right
there and stopped the trouble between
the two prisoners Immediately without
any assistance on the part of Mr.. Rol-
ives or his hoy. If anything is to be
published, let the truth be stated and
nothing else. AS soon as the trouble
started between Mundt & Nichols, who
had been allowed to be together, and
hearing the cry for help while sitting
outside of the door, I run in, stopped
the fight and locked Nichols in his
own cell and Mundt in the cell with
Dingler. At this time Mr.. Rolwes
came and on his request I let him in.
This is the story of the great discovery
by some people who think they can
reach the South Pole after somebody
else has found it. The correctness of
my statements can be proven by the
! two prisoners, Mundt and Dingler.
II certain reporters would make an ef-
fort to get the facts and not act on
| hearsay, it would certainly be more
honorable and better for all parties
concerned. I am not the kind of a
man, that has to go around to blow
what he can do. My past record
shows that I am truthful. Regarding
the watcnfuiness we have always been
onto our job, as is clearly shown in
this instance. We do not need the as
sistance or aid of the governor.

Death OF the World

The age of tho earth is placed by
some at 5O0,00O,O00 years by others
100, 900, 900 years, and still others of
later time place it at 10000, 600 years.
None place it lower than 1O,0OO, 600,
knowing what processes have been gone
through.
Other planets go through the same
process. The reason that other planets
differ so much from the earth is that
they are in so much earlier or later
stages of existence. The earth must
become old.
Newton surmised, although he could
give no reason for it, that the earth
would lose all its water and become
perfectly dry. Since then it has been
found that Newton was correct
AS the earth keeps cooling it will be.
come porous, and great cavities will
be formed i'll the interior, which will
take in the water. It il estimated that
this process is now in progress, so far
that the water dminishes Mt the rate of
the thickness of II sheet of paper each
year.
AT this rate in G,00O,OOO years the
water will have sunk mile, and in
10, 900, 600 the water will have disap.
pcared from the face Of the globe.
Tho nitrogen and oxygen in the ut.
mosphcre are also diminishing all the
time. 1t is In an inappreciuble degree,
but tho time will como when the air
will bc so thin that no creature we
know could breathe it and live. The
time will come when the world cannot
support life. That will be the period
Of old age, and then will come death. -

Gain In Iron Production

The gain in the production of pig
iron during the second half of last year
rs compared with the first half was 80
per cent. In tonnage the second half
of tho past year was 1887, 200. The
gain in population of the United States
from the beginning of the panic of 1907
until the end Of Nouember last is esti-
mated by officials of the Census Eureau
at 1850, 900. Once more the tide Of
immigrants is OH the flood and from
many parts of the southwest and west
come accounts of scarcity of day
laborers. farm hands and mechanics
The building trades are improving,
because the fairly low prices for most
kinds of building materials enable real
estate owners to carry out plans which
were projected two to four years ago,
but which were put aside owing to the
high prices of materials and labor.
These conditions serve to account for
the steady gain in activity in the iron
and steel trades. Iron ore mining is
going OH in much larger volume than
during the corresponding period Of last
year Stocks Of ores at furnaces are
low. Today the monthly production of
pig iron is going on at something more
than double the rate in the best month
which the pig iron trade had in 1890
Tho propuction of pig iron for December
was almost the equivalent of tho entire
production of this country In 1876

A Thrilling Experience

Saturday morning Charley Graham
and his mother, Mr.. Kieffer and Mrs
Schoen started from Mardis to go to
Deeth with team. They started early
and all went well with them until they
were caught in a blizzard late in the
afternoon and lost the road. The snow
was SO deep that they conld not tell
where they were going and the first
thing they knew horses. sleigh and all
fell over a cliff and found themselves in
the snow thirty feet below.
The night came OH and the snow was
so deep that they were compelled to re-
main ut the foot of the cliff until morn
ing, They dug hole in the snow and
made Themselves as comfortable as pos
sible until the morning broke. They
were all hungry, cold and wet and put
in a most miserable night.
AS soon as it became light all started
through the deepsn for ranch house
some distance away. The snow was so
deep that Mrs. Graham, who is over
20 years of age made part of the dis
tance by rolling on top of the snow.
All finally reached the house about :
o'clock i'll the morning, and, as good
luck would have it, found Mr. Carlson
cooking his breakfast. The marooned
party was made rs comfortable as
possible and were soon ready to resume
their trip.
The team was dug ont of the snow
and cared for, after which the party re-
sumed the trip to Deeth and reached
there without further mishap.
The trip was severe one on the
whole party, but particularly 50 on
Mrs. Graham and Mr. Kieffer Mrs.
Graham is over 20 years of age and Mr..
Kieffer is badly crippled with rheu-

Hydraulic Methods In Tn. Nondik.

Gold was discovered in the Klondike
placer gold district u little over de-
cade ago, since which time the field,
with an area of % by 90 miles square,
has produced gold to the value of about
sl25, 900, 900 says G. G. Coal, consul at
Dawson. Nearly all of this has been
mined by the primitive process of pick
and shovel, and washed by the pan, the
rocker, and the sluice box,
Most of the placer gravels in this dis
trict are frozen from the surface of bed
rock, which i'll places is 800 #. deep.
The pioneer miner put down his shaft by
fire made of wood upon the frozen
ground, which thawed it for a few
inches in depth, and the gravel was
then removed and washed. and the
same process repeated until bedrock was
reached; then he drifted along bedrock,
where the richest gravels are found
using the same process of thawing and
washing rs before. and hosting the
gravel by II handwindlass; but later
steam was used for thawing and hoist
ing.
The thawing is now done by steam
points, which are steel-pointed pipes or
tubes Of various lengths throurh which
the steam passes, being conveyed by
means of hose. These points are in
serted slowly into the frozen gravel,
thawing for Il radius of about #. to
each point, and to depth of it, per
hour. Only the richest gravels were
worked, leaving the greater part of the
ground containing lower grade gravels
not worked, which is estimated to con.
tain as much gold rs the ground which
has formerly been worked
OF recent years the latest improved
mining machinery and appliances are
being used, such as hydraulics, dredges
and elevators, and by these improved
methods the same ground is being work
cr over again, and also lower grade
gravel of virgin ground, all of which
pays large dividends.

Don't Fight The Weather

What great misfortune this is, the
habit of considering the weather-of
thinking that we must consider the
weather. 1t is largely due is it not, to
clothesP No mention is made of rain
in the garden of Eden, but we must not
therefore contend that rain was dis
agreeable and omitted. We must re-
to consider rain. Furthermore, in bles-
sed ignorance they did not know that
it was anything to be considered.
TO mind the rain no more than the
May sunshine, but to plunge into it
and let the drops pelt as they will, to
accept the snow without thought of
discomfort, but, rather, to enjoy the
thronging presence of it; to pursne ones
daily stint regardless of whether the
sky be dun or blue-this is state
which we, especially of the cities, long
long have lost.
We regain it, some of MS, in the will
derness camp, where we hunt or fish
If the day be dark or if the day be
bright. and where we find that the dash
of the soft rain on ones face is not death
after all; that wetncss and dryness are
merely relative terms.
All the centuries of fussing and fun
ing with the weather have not affected
the weather one particle. 1t still rains
and SHOWS and sleets and blows, Just as
dictated by circumstances. Therefore,
what's the user Are your puny diatribes
or mine of any greater potency than
those of others gone before7 Evidently
not. Accordingly try the plan of being
friendly with the weather, of agreeing
with it instead of fighting it, and, 'pon
my ward, presently it will be agreeing
with you.--E. l.. Sabin in Lippincotts

Center OF Population

The center of population in 1900 was
in the state Of Indiana. In 1870 the
center was twenty-three miles east of
Maryland, or virtually on the Atlantic
shore line. Its migration has been slow
and remarkably uniform, both in rate
and direction.
1t has lowered for 10 years along the
thirty-ninth parallel of latitude and its
total variation to latitude has been less
then one-third of one degree.
The westward movement has aver
aged less than n degree in decade, not
withstanding the incredibly swift oc-
cupation of Il vacant continent by Il
movement of population westward.
The easterly position of the center of
population is in part due to the fact
that the eastern part of the continent
was first settled and was settled from
the east. The easterly position of the
center of populatihn is also due to the
more evenly distributed and more
abundant resources of the eastern half
of the United States
1t should not be forgotten that the
geographical center of the United States
lies some hundreds of miles west of tho
Mississippi river. The eastern half of
country, therefore, embraces the At
lantic lowlands. the prairies and great
lake plains, the gulf lowlands and the
forests and minerals of the Appalachian
mountains and Appalachian plateau.
Over against these are the arid and
mountainous areas of the west which
are being reclaimed at rapid rate.
Their incredible productiveness, their
vast mineral wealth and the trend of
immigration will result in the center of
population continuing to move west for
many years to come.
