therefore our chances to catch a nine
spot is the quotient obtained by divid-
ing 1.e4s,492. .110,12o by 1o.o77, 500, which
is 16S,ss1:3715, or about one chance In
163,38I.
Next take the eight spots. The to-
tai combinations of eight numbers in
20 is the quotient obtained by dividing
the product of the eight highest num-
bers in 20 by the product of the eight
smallest. We thus get 125,s7o. each of
which can be taken as many times as
there are combinations OF the two re-
naming numbers in the so nonwinning
numbers This latter combination is
the quotient obtained by dividing the
product of the two highest numbers In
GO by the product OF the two smallest.
Ihus we have so times SO equals 3,540
and times equals 2; 3,540 divided by
equals 1.770, and 125,s70 times ITO
equals 222.966,900 as the total number
of eight spots one will catch with
1,646,4s211o.12o tickets at any one
drawing, or the number of eight spots
one should catch in 1,646,492,110.120
trials. or one eight spot in about 1884
trials.
The number of seven spots is oh
tanned in the same manner, the seven
lucky numbers can form 1880 differ
ent combinations in the 20 winning
numbers, and the three remaining num-
bers can form s4,22o combinations in
the so nonwinning numbers Thus we
have 1920 times 1880, which is 2.652-
734,40o as the number of seven spots
one will get In 1,6464s2.110l2o trials.
The six spots are of course, obtained
in the same manner. The combinations
of six In 20 are 2s.760, and the com
btnations of the remaining four num-
bers in so are 487,635. Thus we have
487,635x38,760, which is $4,000, 1872. 500 a.
the number of six spots one will get

We Just repeat the process with the

A ticket that does not contain at least
four winning numbers is worthless
To find what our chances are at this
kind of lottery, we proceed as with the
other lottery.
We first find how many different ways
we can mark ticket. or how many
different combinations of nine numbers

bers, that will be the quotient obtained
by dividing the product of the nine
highest numbers in so by the product of
the nine smallest, thus the product of so.

the total number of combinations of

Now to get every kind Of a ticket

mark 231. 800, ,297. 200 tickets, and to
play them at 35 cents each cost us
$S1, ,165. .104.02O. and with the same num-

47s,946- We obtain this latter result as
follows: We would receive S772 for
each of our 167.960 nine spots, which is
S129, ,665,120. and s3S6 for each OF our
7,55S.200 eight spots. which is s2.9f7.-

Now IL it cost us sS1f65. .f04 400 20

lem or the 10 spot tickets.
Now the number of nine spots one will
catch in one drawing Of 20 numbers out
of 231, 800. 297,2OO tickets marked is
equal to the total number of combina-

Now the number of eight spots one

obtained by dividing the product of the

And by the same process we find that

Iron County register. [volume] (Ironton, Iron County, Mo.) 1867-1965, 1910-05-19

For years and years the prospectors in Sonora,
Mexico, have been searching for the second of
what has been recorded in history as the twin
lost mines" In certain old records Of the early
missions mention Is made of two certain lost
mines. The names under which they are record
ed, like the names Of most Of the missions estab-
lished under the Spanish crown, do not CORE
spond with any known landmarks today and
hence only relative location can be used as a
basis for exploration,
When the San Pedro mine, located south OF
Nacozari, was discovered some years ago, with
its old underground workings, it is firmly be-
lieved that one Of the two lost mines had been
discovered. Now it seems probable that the sec
ond also has been located and in the belt indi-
Gated in the ancient documents. Even If the
second of the famous lost mines has not been
discovered an antigua mine of great age has been
found, with proofs enough to indicate that 1t has
not been worked for many years.
The discovery was made by John Guilfoyle, a
well-known pioneer mining prospector of Naco-
zari. When out west Of Nacozari about ten miles
he came across a piece of detached ore, which
he picked up and examined. He spent many days
looking over the neighboring lodges in the hope
of coming across the mother lode. But his search
was in vain. Meantime he brought in the specf-
men Of ore and was surprised to find that it ran
1870 ounces of silver to the ton, with good values
in gold. This assay ran so high that he returned
to the district and continued his search. While
using a steel in a creek bottom he found rock
almost at the surface, but continuing his sound
ings he suddenly struck a spot where the steel
sank several feet. :
Guilfoyle knew that the rock formation could
not have ended SO abruptly and he began to ex-
cavate. He uncovered a long cut in the solid
rock of the creek bed which held down stream
and which could not have been cut there when
the water was flowing in the present creek bed.
AS he progressed he found old stone implements,

LEGISLATION of Moment.

Under the present system Of heat
ing national schools in some parts of
Ireland by voluntary efforts, each pu-
pill is expected to carry an armful Of
turf for the purpose. In many dis
tricts turf is now exhausted, with the
consequence that fuel has to be OBJ
tanned by purchase in the ordinary
way. Compulsory attendance is in
force in most Of the counties, and
many poor children, often in wet
clothes, are compelled to attend
schools which are sometimes not heat
ed at all. To remedy this state of af-
fairs several Irish Unionist members
of parliament have brought forward a
bill to provide for the heating Of
schools at the cost of the national ed
ucation commissioners and local vol
untary bodies.
