is the plan of the management to con-
tinue shaft work to a depth which will
give satisfactory idea of the value

At the 100-foot level, croscutting Is
opening the walls of the vein a short
distance from the shaft, and second
level will be established at a depth of
200 feet, from which prosecuting will
again be begun. This plan will be fol-
lowed at other points below the 200
foot level. and IL n satisfactory condi-
ton prevails at depth, this shaft will
probably be connected with the 500
foot level of the Telfair shaft. The
south crosscut from the Telfair shaft
Is 40 feet long and the connection
with the Blackbird shaft would be a
comparatively easy one to make
when the latter has attained a depth
OF 500 feet. The crosscut has passed
through shale during the last month,

H0T0N MAN JUMPS INTO
PORTAGE LAKE THIS A. M.

An unidentified man, evidently a
stranger, attempted suicide this morn
ing by jumping into the waters OF
Portage Lake at the foot Of Isle Roy
ale street. Employees Of the Peninsula
Wholesale company and other estab-
lishments i'm the vicinity noticed the
man come running down the Hill at
about 1890 this morning and when
he reached the dock he threw himself
into the water. Leo Prince Of the
Roach and Seaber company. Otto Du-
Mont OF the Haas Bottling works and
others rushed 10 the mans assistance
and finally succeeded in pulling him
from the water. He was turned over
10 Marshal Louis Voetsch who took
him 10 the county Jail. At the Jail,
the only statement which could be
gotten from him was, too much the
drink" and II is believed that this re-
ferred to his having imbbbed too free
ly rather than 10 the waters OF Port
age Lake. 1t was impossible to learn
the identity OF the man up TO a late
hour this afternoon. but the cold bath
seems 10 have aroused his senses, as
he appears entirely rational now.
Those who saw the man plunge in
to the lake, freely assert that he SEEM
ed intent upon taking his life.

SUPERIOR AND GLOBE.

The usual exploratory work is con-
stantly extending the underground
woi kings of the Superior and Globe
mineral land and adding to, the UNI
derstanding of the general formation.
The special feature of the develop
ment work consists of that which is
Opening for inspection the fault vein
north of the shaft. at which location
the work is being concentrated.
Since cncountering the fault several
weeks ago, the exploratory drifts
have been extended for n distance of
over 400 feet at the 650-foot level. AL
though the fault is filled with an OK
idized naturalization. the iron content
has prcdominated throughout, while
no copper naturalization occurs in the
faulted ground. In the country rock,
however, more or less copper sui
phides were discovered during the
earlier stages of development work,
both in the shaft and at the level.
This fact, combined with the oxidiz-
cd condition of the faulted ground, APP
pears as a suggestion OF a deeper cop
per deposit the iron oxide of this be-
ing the gossan or Gaping of the un-
DERIVING ore body. The management
has drilled to explore tho fault at a
greater depth, and winze from the
650-foot level has been sunk for sew
eral feet, with the idea of ascertain
ing the nature OF the fault filling be-
low. Although sinking has not been
resumed In the shaft, this will prob
ably follow ut later date. as the shaft
at the present depth appears to be in
the leoched zone and therefore is not
likely to be productive of copper min
eralization. The surface plant is ample
for deeper sinking. a new hoist hav-
ing been recently installed with sixty
horsepower. A compressor operates

ANTIQUE BADGE OF ELks.
First Design for Order Made AZ Years
Aqo in New York.


The story of how the design for the
first Elks badge or pin was made, is
an interesting one. 1t dates back to
New York city AZ years ago this
month. Major Burk, who has been an
Elk for 3s years, Is the man who
made not only the original drawing,
but who actually manufactured the
first badges, says the Detroit Free
Press.
"In May. 1865" says Major Burll

oATHs IN DIFFERENT LANDS.
French Have Least and Norwegians
Most to Say.

The ceremony of taking the oath
has been known since earliest his
tory. The only changes in form which
have come in thousands of years have
been due to the introduction of the
bible and the cross by Christian ma
tons.
AS administered in most of the Eng
lish law courts the form of the oath
is practically the same as that in the
United States. though rather more
ceremonious. In France Ii is perhaps
the simplest. A crucifix above the
judges seat is supposed to obviate the
necessity of the witness handling either
the cross or the bible.
you swear to tell the truth, the
whole truth and nothing bst the
TRUTH" asks the Judge. And the wit
ness, raising his right hand, answers:
Il swear it,"
In Austria a Christian witness Is
sworn before a crucifix placed between
two lighted candles. Holding up his
right hand the witness says: III
swear by God. the Almighty and all
Wise, that will speak the pure and
full truth i'm answer to anything l may
be asked by the court
II the witness Is of the Jewish
race he uses the same words, but
places his hand on a bible opened at
the page on which appears the third
commandment and the crucifix is
removed.
In Belgian court the witness says:
Il will speak the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth, so
help me God and all the saints" No
bible is required in the administering
Of this oath.
The Italian witness generally takes
the oath in n dramatic manner. Rest
ing his hand on an open bible he ex-
claims: II will swear to tell the truth.

truth"
