Life in Nova Zembla.

The Russian government has recent
" given attention to the development
of the northern portions Of its empire
especially the Island of Nova zemDla
in the Arctic ocean, which, only a few
years ago, was inhabited by but fifty
souls.
The governor of the province OF
Archangel induced eight Samoyede
families to emigrant thither. All their
wants were supplied with the greatest
care, according to the official reports,
and much attention was lavished upon
them.

THREE THINGS SHOW
GROWTH OF kINGMAN

KINGMAN, Ariz., July 3.-Perhaps
the best indication of the districts
steady growth is shown by three fea-
lures of the weeks mining events in
the county.
First, the local power plant is to be
practically doubled; second. a new 100
ton mill and cyanide plant are assured
in the Union Pass district; third, the
big mills of the Gold Road and Tom
Reed mines are to be further enlarged.
The increase in the power plant
aside from demonstrating the feast
bility of electric power in the county
shows the highest faith in the future
development of Mohave county mines.
Word has been received from General
Manager H. n. Tracy Of the Desert
Power and Water company of Los An
geles to the effect that he has just
signed an order for a 1900 horsepower
Nordberg engine as an addition to the
Kingman plant. The present equip
ment with two $50 horsepower engines
furnishes power for the Gold Road and
Tom Reed mines and mills and the
town of Goldroad, Catman and King
man. Tracy states that the addition
was made necessary by the growing
needs of the district and that the work
would be rushed to completion with
all possible speed.

UNITED DEVELOPMENT
JUMPS RAILROAD LAND
Acts Upon Advice of Lawyers
That Southern Pacific Can
not Hold Territory

COALINGA, July 3.-The United
Development company made another
move in its fight against the Southern
Pacific, when 1t hauled lumber to the
southwest corner of the southwest
quarter of section 10, 20-15 last week.
George d. Roberts of the Stockhold-
ers Oil company is the president Of the
United, and he attended to the jumping
personally. 1t is understood that the
company will erect a rig and drilling on
section 49, but on this location. At
least this is the present plan.
A few weeks ago the United hauled
lumber to two locations on T. 21-15, but
did not proceed with the work of erect
ing a derrick, as the hauling of lumber
sufficed for assessment work. The
Southern Pacific brought no action
against the United, but Superintendent
Hively of the X. T. and o. notified the
company that it was trespassing.
1t cannot be foretold what action the
railroad company will take in the event
that the United goes ahead with the
present plans of Mating up rig and
drilling on section IL, but a number of
those connected with the latter COM
pany stated that they intend sinking a
hole there without delay.
The United Development company is
composed of local men who located on
Southern Pacific land shortly after Ed
mund Burke brought suit in Fresno
against the railroad. They have Sc
cured the services of Hoke Smith and
r. s. Minot, and have won every point
in the litigation up to the present stage.
They are sanguine of success, as Hoke
Smith was the man who signed the
patents under President Garfield, and
on the face of these patents, it is said,
they are void If the land was discov-
cred to be mineral bearing.

CHURCH HER0ISM
NOT SUFFICIENT
Mrs. H. B. Montgomery Makes
Statement at Interdenomina-
tionaI Missionary School
FILL THE AUDITORIUM
"ChivaIry of Missions" Is Subject
of the Opening Address in
Methodist Church

1.-THE churches do not get sufficient
heroism out of religion to meet the re-
quirements Of the times" said Mrs. H.
b. Montgomery, well known in mis-
sion study work throughout the United
States, yesterday afternoon at the
opening sessions of the lnterdenomina-
tional Mission Study school for South
ern California in the First Methodist
church.
The church auditorium was well flied
with women and small sprinkling OF
men interested in the mission work.
The opening song service was led by
DR.. Eugene Davis. Mrs. r. A. Hadden
conducted the devotional exercises,
which were followed by a solo, Lead,
Kindly Light by Mrs. Eugene Davis.
Rev. J. Whitcomb Brougher intro
duced Mrs. Montgomery with remarks
of former friendship.
"The Chivalry of Missions" was the
subject of Mrs. Montgomery. She said
in part:
when we look back into the old age
of the knights of chivalry with the
great acts of bravery described to us,
we sometimes think that the chivalry
of today is very tame, but when we
look at it in the broad sense that it
is conducted in the present time with
all the varied colors thrown out on
the scenes of action, we feel that there
is a large increase of bravery and of
chivalry When women go 1000 miles
away from home, among strangers and
the heather, which is being done today,
it calls forth great bravery and chiv-
airy.
"The hardships of the missionary in
Africa were almost unsurmountable be-
fore the railway accommodations. But
the work is being pushed far beyond
in the heather country.
"In our home life there is not enough
present day heroism taught to our
children. We tell them the old worn
out stories about washington, Lincoln,
William Tell, ETC., but we should come
out strong on such heroes as Roosevelt
and others of the present day and i'm
press the children with important acts
of chivalry."
The sessions will be continued each
afternoon during the week, omitting
today. Mrs. Montgomery will speak at
each session.
Tuesday afternoon Mrs. e. P. McCon-
nell will lead the devotional exercises.
Mrs. C. E. Richards will sing a solo.
following which Mrs. Montgomery will
speak on what Our Mothers Have
Told U.s."

ROOSEVELT IS MODERN p.
CHARLEMAGNE--HODG|N
First Unitarian Church Minister
Draws Comparison Between
Two Men

In speaking of the mixed motives that
enter into our religious and patflotic
sentiments, the Rev. E. Stanton Hod-
gin of the First Unitarian church IN
his sermon yesterday morning on Pa
triotism and Religion" said:
1T sometimes seems as if we scarce
ly eliminate anything from our nature.
We simply add to it and carry 1t all
with us. We seem to retain all our
primitive and primeval characteristics
in addition to the refinements we at
tain. They are kept in order usually
by our ideals-our higher natures, put
they are ever waiting to assert them
selves and it is astonishing how read
lily we at times revert back to type.
The lynchings and burnings and muir
ders and innumerable cases of mob
violence that are forever surprising us
show how close to the surface our
primitive traits remain. War is simply
a reversion back to the savage, and we
cultivate the warlike, savage spirit in
every rising generation and we are
careful to keep it insecurely confined
beneath the surface ready TO be
touched off at any moment. The fact
that the eyes of so large a number or
the American people are directed too
ward Reno, New, today, the intense in
terest that can be created in mere
contest of brute strength between two
half human animals, shows how primi-
tive and how much alive the old saw
age is in all of us.
"Ex-President Roosevelt probably has
a greater hold upon a larger number of
people than any man has ever had.
The admiration for Roosevelt is more
genuine and spontaneous, based more
entirely upon a just appreciation OF
the real man than any popular hero
has ever before received. We are glad
to recognize him as an idealist, re-
former, one eager to establish justice
between man and man and to promote
the blessings of civilization upon earth.
He is doubtless exercising greater pow
er in the right direction than any man
of our time But that is not the soul
or the chief source of his wonderful
hold upon his fellows. If he were just
idealist, reformer and lover of his fel-
low men only, he would be beloved
only by the hundreds where he is now
adored by the thousands. He gets hold
of people because the aboriginal man,
the sanguinary and the primordial man
is so tremendously alive in him. lie
appeals to us because he is the embodl-
ment of all that is seeking expression
within us from wild man of the forest
UP to the saint and philosopher. He ap-
peals to the savage and the untaheu
pirate within us as we'll as to the IDEAL
ist and the prophet. His inferlorlty no
less than his superiority is a source OF
strength to him. He is to his age what
Charlemagne was to his-the inspired
barbarian. He fastens one hand upon
the earth with the clutch of savage
and with the other he reaches for the
stars with his idealism. AS no other
man he reveals us to ourselves. He
frightens us by showing us how prim-
itive we are and inspires us by show
ing us how godlike we may be. His
power will probably be greater while
he is alive and in action than at any
subsequent time"

IN IRON suLPHIDEs

GOLDFIELD, July 3.-A prospecting
shaft is being sunk on a strong east
and west vein on the Manning lease
on the ORC, about 800 feet west of the
main shaft. 1t is down eighteen feet
and shows a large body of quartz in
which considerable iron sulphides is
appearing. This will be sunk some
distance further for prospecting pur-
poses, and may develop commercial
values. Good paintings have recently
been secured from nearby on the same
vein, and there are strong indications
of an ore shoot in this vicinity. The
main shaft has been unwatered and
retimbered to a depth of 275 feet and
a contract will soon be let for sinking
it about 200 feet further. Lateral
work will then be undertaken to de-
velop a system of cross veins that ap-
parently intersects this neighborhood.

DUTY OF THE NATION
To PROCLAIM LIBERTY
Or. Charles E. Locke Delivers Pa
triotic Address Before Big
Congregation
Branch:
2426 South Hoover street

DR. Charles Edward Locke at the
First Methodist Episcopal church
preached an interesting patriotic ser
mon last night. His suject was "Ihe
American Nation a Child of Prov.
dence: Our Old ard New Mission.
TEXT: "Proclaim liberty throughout all
the land unto all the inhabitants there
Of" Leviticus 25:10 The sermon had
a unique musical accompaniment. The
national airs of many of the nations
were sung in the native language.
Four Japanese sang the national air OF
Japan. The large church was crowded
in every part to overfiowing. DR.. Locke
said in part;
Expansion is not necessarily i'm
perialism. Our duty to the world is to
proclaim liberty, to give to all the IN
habitants thereof our gospel of Tree
dom: to teach men how to govern
themselves. And, so soon under our
tutelage as the Cuban and Tagal shall
be fitted for self-government, our
America shall surprise the grasplng ma
tions of the world by her magnanlmous
treatment of her temporary colonists.
The God of nations has called us to
this mighty task, and the progeny OF
the pilgrim fathers will not be recreant
TO the great trusts which they have in
herited and which God has imposed.
1--WE must not overlook in our IN
terest in worldwide proclamations OF
liberty, our supreme duty to ourselves.
We must maintain and steadily IN

MOCOLLON MINES NOW
UNDER ONE CONTROL
Last Chance Acquires by Pur-
chase Top Property Rich in
Gold and Silver

SILVER CITY, N. NJ, July 3.-Two Of
the richest gold and silver mines in
New Mexico and the southwest were
placed under one management last
week when the Ernestine Mining COM
pany, operating the famous Last
Chance mine at Mogollon, took over
from the Top Mining company the well
known Top mine, which adjoins the
Last Chance. The Ernestine company
has had an option on the Top for the
last six months, during which time they
have been vigorously prosecuting de-
Velopment work and have more than
exceeded expectations, until today the
Top has been developed into mag
niflcent mining property According to
the terms of the sale, the stockholders
of the Top get in exchange for their
stock $350O00 in dividend paying stock
Of the Ernestine Mining company. This
stock will be pro-rated among the Top
stockholders in few days.
The deal is an advantageous one to
both parties concerned. The Ernestine
company, by adding the Top, Will
greatly augment, their ore reserves
while the Top people, besides avoiding
lot of expensive development work,
are putting their property on a pro-
ducing basis at an economical cost
since it is planned to operate the Top
saving a big item of expense in sinking
a working shaft.
The consolidation of these two rich
properties will give mining an added
stimulus in the Mogollon district,
which is rapidly coming to the front as
one of the great gold and silver dis
tricts of the country. 1t means in
creased outpue and longer life to the
Ernestine operations and increased div
idends to the Ernestine stockholders.
The history of the consolidation is in
teresting. In May, 1909, e. A. Wayne,
the former manager of the Savanna
Copper company, while on trip to the
Mogollon district with the Silver City
boosters excursion, became greatly in
terested in the possibilities of the Top
and it's ore formation and acquired an
option on the property.
Seeing the economic advantages re-
sulting from a consolidation of the
Top with the Last Chance mines and
the saving in operating costs, he in
terested e. Craig, president of the
Ernestine Mining company in the
proposition, and the result was an op-
tion on the property by the Ernestine
company last December.

CUT IN MARKET PRICE

The cut in oil prices at San Fran

PROVED LAND SOLD

SANTA MARIA July 3.-It is re-
ported that the c. o. More tract ad-
joining the Ideal property on the north
is about to be sold to oil prospectors.
This holding comprises an entire sec
ton and in view of it's proximity to
the proved territory of the Los Ala
mos petroleum company, looks to be a
sure shot.
On the east side and even as much
as a mile further north several rigs
have been put up within the past year
and indications point to further activ-
ity in this vicinity. The More tract
is on the same anticline as the Palmer
one mile south, and the expert belief
is that lighter oil will be struck at
this point.

AMERICAN PETROLEUM
WILL CLOSE BREAK"
Big CoaInga Company Plans to
Drill Where Formation Was
Once Doubtful

COALINGA. July S-The south half
of 32-19-15, which the American Petro-
leum will develop, lies due south of
the Empire, which is on the south half
of the northeast quarter of the same
section. The latter's well, which was
drilled right on what has been con-
sidered the break" was the means
of destroying the belief in the break
1t is at present entirely untouched by
the drill. The nearest well is the EN-
pire on the north and the next near
est the Calls No. 8 in the northwest
corner of the section.
Section 81 on the west contains a
number of wells belonging to the Con-
fidence, the Maine state, the CONNER

but there is no development on 30 on
the east, which Is a x. I. 81 o, sectlon'
nor on 5, 20-15, on the south, whlcn
belongs to the same owner. The EN-
pire's we'll, however, may be consid-
cred as having practically proven the
greatest part of the property.
The Claremonts deep hole on 4, 20-15,
on which work has been going on for
several years, not fully determined, Is
lust across the line from the American
Petroleum's. This work proves clearly
that the eastern part of the property
is very deep territory. All the wells
referred to here are on what Is called
side are the Standards on rs, about
half o mile from the American Petro-
leums northern line. With the Empire
the southernmost of these may said
to have been closed the break"
The American Petroleum Will also
