FAULTING OF THE LEDGE
HAS DEPRESSING EFFECT
Belmont Stock Drops to $685., But 1t Is
Eagerly Sought and Bought by Tono-
pah Buyers.

Belmont stock, within the last
two days, has dropped from $3.50
to $685., due of course, to the
fault or throw which has occurred
in the mine on the 100 foot level,
and which has been ridiculously
magnified, and the consequent sour
ry of timid ones to dispose of their
holdings.
But, in the opinion of the best
mining judgment in the camp, there
is nothing for stockholders to wor-
ry over. The same thing has hap
pened time and again in nearly ev-
cry mine in the district, and in ev-
cry instance where the fault has
been caught up with, increased
quantities of ore and greater values
have followed.
AS far as can be learned the
fault in the Belmont is not regard
ed with any seriousness by those
in charge of the mines affairs. 1t
occurred in the east drift of the
100 level 1000 or more feet from
the shaft, and is described more
as throw than a fault. At that
point, which is the fathest easterly
working of the property, a clay or
mud ledge is said to have cut
through the main ledge at right
angles, but it is figured out that
when it is cut through and few
feet of work is accomplished on
the other side of it, the ledge will
again show itself and probably
come in stronger than ever. That
has been the history of all Tono-
pah mines, and there is no reason
advanced why in this case it should
prove contrary to the rule.
Regarding the fault or throw, g
bulletin has been issued and sem
out by the local mining men ant
stock brokers. 1t is based on inside
information and is as follows:
"A small throw has occurred OF

Price and Weedman, leasers on
the Vulture claim of the Dyer and

dy, and the jewelry ore that they
are taking out right at the surface
8 feet east of their shaft, has caus-
ed a regular hegira of mining men
to visit the latest bonanza showing
of the camp
To get down to the actual facts
3to 4 inches of the vein is produc-
ing specimen ore showing free gold
in the form of wire gold. The risk
of shooting out the picture goods
was obviated by the use of CAD and
MOL and about so pounds OF the
mint goods was extracted by that
method. Parties who visited the
new find estimated the value OF the
ore saved at several hundred dol
lars.

ADVOCATES SIMPLE DIET.
Well Cooked Vegetables, Rice, Etc.
vs.. New England Mince Pie.

Detroit, Mich. Especial -Well-cooked
vegetables, rice and meat as opposed to
New England mince pie and Boston
baked beans, has made the graceful,
self-controlled Turk the superior Of the
nervous, lank New Englander.s
This was the contention laid down be-
fore the Mississippi Valley Medical As
sociation by DR.. Fenton b.. Turck, of
Chicago.
"Diet has more to do with the making
of great men or the deteriorating of the
human race to the level of the brute than
anything else,1 declared DR.. Turck.
Compare that armor-plate mince pie
diet indulged in by all America with the
two sane meals day that are enabling
Turkey to produce the finest specimens
of physical manhood in the world. Mince
pie and beans are bringing about race
deterioration not alone in Connecticut
and Maine"

CHICAGO FOURTH CRY IN WORLD


Washington, D. @. tSpecial) The
Census Bureau announced that the pres
.ent population Of Chicago is g.ls5,2ss.
This is a gain of 4s6, ,70s, or as.7 per
cent since 1890.
This announcement leaves Chicago
ranking in population as the second city
of the United States and the fourth in
the world.
Chicago has almost doubled its popu-
Hlation since 1890, when the figures were
1,099,S Its greatest growth during
that period was between 1890 and 1900,
when there was an increase of 54.4. Its
increase in population during the past
decade was not so great proportionatly as
that of New York, the rate of increase
being 10 per cent less than that scored
by the eastern city. New York iss yet
ahead Of its closest rival by 1881 $50.
Chicago, however, can claim distinction
in having jumped from sixth to fourth
place among the big cities on the Globe,
only London, New York and Paris being
ahead of it. 1t is following close upon
the heels of Paris, whose population by
its last census in 1901 was 2,7l4,068.
Chicago takes precedence over Toxic
and Berlin by close margins. According
to the census taken in each of the two
cities in 1908, Toxic had 2,085, l60 and
Berlin, 2,040,148.
As the second city in America, Chi
cago is practically in class by itself
New York far outstrjps it with 4,766,-
633 and Philadelphia, which is its near
est rival for the second honor this year,
showed population of ls549,00S.

The physician described the nature oil

He had found two-sevenths Of a grain af-I
ter lapse Of from four to eight months,
and judged that more than half a grainl
had been administered. He found mo-

opinion that the victim survived the dose

placer mining district in Alaska has pro-
duced $lsO,O00,0OO in gold since 1898,
and mining experts estimate the amount
yet to be mined will equal that already
produced. Consul Cole, of Dawson
states that the gold output for 1910 will
exceed that of 1909, when more than
s., 3,50O,OOO was produced. Most Of this
gold, he states, was shipped to the United

ALIMoNY AND DIVORCE.

Now comes New York woman who
rs sure to be charged with ''woman's
inhumRnity for woman" protesting to
be shocked at the multiplicity of d.
Rorces and proposing remedy in the
total abolition of alimony. says Omaha
Bee. She conceives the prospect of
plimony to be the chief cause Of di-
vorces granted to women and de-
mounces the system as nothing but q
simple graft. Undoubtedly many de
signing women can consistently take
NO exceptions to these charges. and
& Vt IS not to be questioned that some
pnscrupulous lawyers will co-operat9
with women for the purpose Of OBJ
Naming financial emolument through
The operation Of the divorce courts.
but that alimony, or the desire to OBJ
tain alimony, constitutes the prevail
Hng cause and purpose Of women
seeking legal separations from their
husbands. it Is hard to believe, any
more than 1t would be wise, safe or
just to do away with the law provid-
ing for alimony. Society has come
to recognize that there is such thing
as q justifiable divorce, and there is
certainly such thing as a woman
needing and deserving support from
the man from whom she seeks and OBJ
kains q divorce, and to abolish alimony
would work hardship on many women
and children. alike blameless for the
causes as wen as the fact Of the sep
hration.

Niagara Falls, N. Y. Especial Capt.
Klaus Larsen, in his Little Motor boat,
the Ferro, made successful trip from
the foot Of the cataract through the
whirlpool rapids to within a mile Of
Lewiston, distance ofSfour and one-ha1f
miles. He started from the Maid of the
Mist dock at 4 4:45 and ran on rock
near the American shore at 5 80.
Despite the battering of the whirlpool
rapids. Larsen went through safely, but
his boat was leaking badly at the finish
and through the trip. Larsen had IN.
tended to start at ESQ o'clock, but he
was delayed by engine trouble. Besides,
the authorities threatend to interfere on
the ground of attempted suicide. The
Ferro swung under the cantilever bridge,
the engine running at top speed, and was
caught in the swift drift break of water
to whirlpool rapids. Larsen held to the
middle of the channel and in less than
thYee minutes had made the great pool
!. In the trip through the rapids the little
boat was lost to sight most of the time,
but at Great Wave it was shot 20 feet
out of the water. The boat landed right
and continued to the pool.
Larsen kept to the outer edge OF the
pool and passed out and down without
accident just as he left the pool the
engine stopped working and Larsen was
at the mercy of the waters hardly less
violent than those above. The little boat
swung around stern first and then turn
ed completely over, Larsen coming up
badly battered. 1t was here that he in
juIed the leg.
n From now on Larsen was the play
thing of the river, unable to hold the
course, the boat swinging from one side
to the other. After getting through the
DEVILS Hole, the Ferro swung toward the
American side of the river, rolled
over one boulder and went fast be-
tween two others. There Larsen stayed
for FIVE minutes, 40 feet from shore,
working desperately to release the craft.
Getting free, he was hit by comber and
sent careening toward the middle. At
the bend with The Lewiston bridge in
sight, the boat drifted toward the Ameri-
ean side again and was then caught in
the shore eddy The Ferro grounded
again, this time near enough to shore to
be caught by Roy Rockwell, of this city.
who waded into the water and caught a
rope thrown by Larsen.
Larsen wanted to continue the trip,
but having accomplished the worst part
of the journey, he was persuaded to
board trolley to Lewiston, setting the
beat adrift.
