Dr. Clarence E. Edwords, head of the

the proposed site for the exposition
declared that it's selection was an easy

 IS HAPPY N0W
SENATOR GLAD TO RETIRE AZ TER FlFTY-FOUR YEARS OF
 ACTIVE POLITICAL LIFE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 13. - Apparent ly unruffled by the fact that his ca reer in the U S. senate has came to an end. Senator Chauncey M. De pew sat in his library today and talked of his 54 years of political fife that practically ceased on cleo tion night, when a Democratic legis- lature was chosen.
 "I am the happiest man in the state of New York" he said. '1 am v years of age: I have been 54 years actively in politics and l think I can say that my ambitions have been reasonably satisfied. Dur ing the last campaign I made some times two speeches a night, once talking for half an hour or more in the rain and the next morning my voice was in as good condition as ever. My health Is good and my desire of years, to be happy myself and share that happiness with others has been nearly satisfied
 'I was fairly certain that the Republican party would be defeat ed, for the change in the vote that elected Foss in Massachusetts, Havens In New York and Plaisted in Maine was so nearly the same that there was no doubt that the country was up in arms"

MINERAL BELT ON
 NEW ROAD
TO RUN THROUGH PROM ISlNG COUNTRY.

OTTAWA That the country through which the new Hudson Bay railway will run possesses agricul- ,ural and mineral possibilities that need only railway facilities to open them up, was the substance of an in terview given today by Prof. R. w. Brock, director of the geological sur vey who has just returned from the trip on which he accompanied Earl Grey through the north country.
 While I had not time to make a thorough examination of any kind" said Prof Brock, q noticed one promising looking belt on Etch- mania river up which we went. It was about 13O miles long. There has. of course, been no prospecting in this district owing to the difficult ties of transportation. The railroad base for this work and several of the inlets afford great opportunities for it.
 As regards agriculture, the coun- try, of course does not offer such advantages as does the prairie, still there is lot of land that could be used for farming, north of Lake Winnipeg, particularly. It would, however. need experimental explor- ation to decide this question fully.
 There is any amount of water power available all through the country that Is capable of develop ment, Nelson river itself being one of the biggest in the world in this rocpact

the bottom of the same was filled with snow and ice, and did little more to make an examination than 10 use their foot to brush the snow away. and failed to employ imple- ments which might have been readily obtained. which would have enabled them to have made a prop CT examination.
 The Court found, by reason of these facts. that a fair preponder- ance of the evidence showed that a vein some four to six inches in width existed between the walls of rock in place, in the bottom Of the shaft and tunnel, to a distance of some three or four feet in length; [; also that the location had been marked upon the ground so that its boundaries could be readily traced by a person of ordinary prudence, looking for the same with bona fide intention. upon October :, 1908, when the defendants made their at tempted location.
 The Court also remarked upon the fact that Lloyd had visited the open cut and shaft before making his tun- ltI lptdlIOH, Illdl bN ituoOu oi thc fact that he did not consider it a sufficient discovery of mineral in place upon which to found a loca' ton, disregarded the same, with full knowledge of the facts of the case.
 The Court likewise found from the testimony. by a fair preponderance of all the evidence produced at the trial. that the showing in the open cut and shaft was sufficient to jus tifv Ca miner or prospector. reason ably prudenD in the expenditure of his time and money upon the vein. shown in the cut. with a reasonable expectation and hope of developing he vein. lode or ledge into paving nine; that prospector in reaching his conclusion would also take into consideration the showing already made upon the properties adjoining.
 The Court in conclusion said, with reference 10 what constitutes rock in place in Alaska:
 Tn the meantime the principle hat must guide this Court in what constitutes a valid location. so far as discovery Is concerned of a vein lode or ledge in place. containing gOld-bearing rock or other min erals. must be governed to no small extent, if not almost entirely. bv what tho prospectors and miners of the camp consider and know as rcCk in place"
