 Bernard Lagan

SAN FRANCISCO, February 12.- Declaring that he shot in self defense, believing he was about to be attacked, former Captain of Police Michael Con boy, on trial for killing Bernard Lagan, testified in his own behalf today.
 With all testimony in, the defense rested its case and arguments will begin Monday.
 ConbOy, who is alleged to have shot Lagan while intoxicated, after the lat ter had helped him out of the gutter, said that on the night of the shooting he became violently ill on Fillmore street, as a result of drinking a little and dining too heartily. While over come and leaning against lamp post, Lagan seized him around the waist and appeared to be fumbling in his pockets Believing him to be pickpocket, Con boy said he warned Lagan away and as he returned as if to renew the scuf- file, he drew his revolver and fired twice.

 How many persons know, for in stance, that the republic of the United States of Brazil is some 100000 square miles larger than the United States of North America, not including Alaska or the insular possessionst Its population is about 20,000,0O0. The forest wealth of Brazil has been hardly touched, and it. is said that no other region in the world possesses such variety of useful and ornamental timber and medicinal plants.
 The government revenues of Brazil for 1908 amounted to $l44, 300, ,664, and the national foreign debt was $369,- 0S7,633. The national credit is good. The government gives bounties for growing wheat and silk, and for the establishment of flour mills and silk and rubber factories. Mining is en- couraged Coffee is the principal crop, but sugar, tobacco, rice, rubber, cacao, mate and cotton are largely produced and exported. Live stock forms a lead ing industry. The government of Bra gil is one of the most enterprising in the world, and it offers exceptional i'm dueements to foreign capital and labor. In 1908, 94,695 immigrants entered the country.

srar'3l to the Silver Belt.
 WASHINGTON, D. C., February F. -F,nr hundred thousand corporations, I., little and of various degrees of c,,. report, are aroused almost to the rn.nt of hysteria over the provision of tr. .orporation tax law which requires them to lay bare the secrets of their r,,.nass for the benefit of the tax gath errr.. and then to deposit those sacred .pnt rontial statements in the archives gr Washington, where they become pub Ii. records, open to anyone who cares to >re them. It is solemnly averred hv representatives of the 100000 cor norar.ons that they have no objection to rHr payment of the tax of one per ron, m net earnings over and above tbe sum of 5000; they can stand that, tbcv say. provided that they have to rav ar all, but to let their competitors min The secrets of their business--ah, rhar is where the new law pinches.
 Durug the past two weeks there have been many representatives of the rorporate interests in Washington.
 Some of them came here serene in the confidence that if they asked it con oresy would forthwith repeal such law, esnarIarlv when congress saw how in- iouitous and absurd it was from the srgrdpoiut of the corporations, But they were not here more than a day or two before they learned their error. Con gress is not likely to repeal any law :, dear to the heart of the chief execu- tive as is the one imposing a tax on rorportions. There is a possibility, however, that the publicity clause may he repealed or essentially modified. The matter has been placed squarely before tbe president, and he has admitted, it IS said that the results might be more far.reaching than he supposed. It is understood not to be the purpose of the government to place any of the corpora lion, in a position where competitors or blarkmaiers could have an unfair ad- vantage over them.
 of course, one reason why the pub rritv feature of the law was placed in ir was SO that the government might gq. information which might enable it t0 classify corporations into the two classes good corporations and "had" corporations. That can be done ffsthe rvorn statements required are held sacred from the prying eyes of per sons who, under ordinary circumstances would not have the privilege or right 10 examine them. To leave the state me1ts open to inspection would permit competitors to gain. superior knowledge of each others business: it would en- able the big corporations to learn just where and how they could squeeze the l,te fellows, and it would enable per. sons who desired to levy political or other blackmaiI to ascertain just how much "thc traffic would bear" The corporate interests will work hard to have what they consider a hardship remeltcd by law.

eggs that are smaller and smaller, and that inasmuch as a dozen small eggs fetch as much as dozen big eggs, the chicken fanciers are devoting their en- ergies to producing chickens which will lay small eggs, on the theory that hen has just so much reproducing ability and that she can lay more small eggs than large ones. This wisdom was evolved before the commissioners of the District of Columbia, who, to be in fashion, have been Investigating the high price of food. No doubt the hen men will laugh to scorn the allegation that they are deliberately trying to breed race of hens which will lay small eggs, but the tendency is to re. quire eggs to be sold by the pound in- stead of by the dozen, and such charges as those of Dr. Wiley win help along the enactment of some such law.

BOYS AND GIRLS, FARM CLUBS

In recent years good work has been done by various agencies in the way of arousing interest in country life and making the farm more attractive to the young men and women, who are show ing disposition to apply modern meth ods to the acres of their patrimony. One successful new method of agricul- tural education that has been devised takes the form of boys and girls clubs Such clubs usually provide for prize contests among the members. Corn growing contests are probably the most popular among the boys, while the girls compete in bread making or sewing, or even test their skill against the boys in gardening.
 The department of agriculture has in- formation of 395 counties in twenty eight states in which such clubs are organized, with total membership of about 144,000. New York has about 75000 members; Nebraska, 25,000; and other states smaller numbers. In most cases these clubs are organized under the auspices of some state authority.

 "Why was your offer rejected7" asked Bristow.
 Kaker replied the secretary of war was of the opinion he had no jurisdic- tion in the matter. He added that he understood Postmaster General Hitch cock would have favored the plan if it met the approval of the head of the war department.
 "The whole thing here is that the United States does not intend to do any thing to hurt the trans-continental rail roads," ejaculated Bristow.

TO FoRTIFY CANAL ZONE

It was announced some time ago that early this month of February the joint army and navy board charged with de- vising plans for the fertilization and defense of the Panama canal zone, would leave Washington and go to the isthmus to spend four weeks or more there inspecting the sites for fortifica- tions and report a general plan for the protection of the canal, not only from foes in time of war, but from insane or maliciously inclined persons in times of peace. It is thought that the scheme of defense will include chain of forts and land batteries on both sides of the canal zone, with heavy guns and mines at the harbor entrances on the Atlantic and Pacific sides. Major General Leon ard Wood is the head of the joint board which includes such high authorities as Brfgadier General Crozier, chief of ord nance; General Bliss, assistant chief of staff; General Arthur Murray, chief of artillery; General Wotherspoon, presi- dent of the army war college; General Marshall, chief of engineers; also Com mander Knapp and Commander Max well, representing the navy.

BALL1NeER-PINcHoT INQUIRY

How long the inquiry being made by a congressional committee into the Bal liuger-Pinchot affair will last no one seems to know. It started out with a presentation of the PinchOt faction side and witnesses. notably the field agent, Glavis, were allowed to express opinions and conclusions which were highly dam aging to the defense. The latter was not represented by counsel, while Glavis had an attorney who was thoroughly in formed regarding his clients ease, Sen ator Nelson, chairman of the committee, and a man with highly developed sense of justice, remarked on the un- fairness of the proceeding, with the re- suit that counsel was allowed Ballinger and others whc were included in the de- fense.
 It has been intimated that Secretary Ballinger, resting serene in the know ledge of his own probity, had disdained the privilege of having counsel, but the investigation will have fairer look when he is represented in that way, and fewer unauthorized "opinions" will probably be expressed on the stand, The committee has felt that it ought not to be expected to present the case of the defendants.

The Goldfeld Alamo company has
at depth of $50 feet in its mine at
Lucky Boy opened two and one-half
feet of steel galena orc, not far from
the station on that level that is per-
haps the richest ore ever encountered
in the mine. Mine sampling shows that
the ore carries 33S ounces of silver and
go per cent lead to the ton. A pecu-
liarity of the ore is. that the silver
shows as black sulphides of silver, and
there are no bromides of silver such as
showed in the ore from the upper levels
The change in the character OF the
ore to a true sulphide at this added
depth, coupled with the fact that this
shoot was picked up practically loo
feet to the east of where it was ex-
pected to pick up the shoot that had
been operated at $50 feet, is notable
The ore shoot just en-
countered seems to be an entirely new
body. and the character of the ore
presages the permanence of the mins
as depth is gained.

ing block, but 40 feet below the point
where the leasers quit work. This is
on the Lucky Boy claim, which is own
ed by Adams and Miller, the ore hav7
ing been opened by crosscut run from
the 500-foot level of the Alamo work
ings. The former leasers spent thous-
ands of dollars on the property, but
beyond a few isolated bunches of ore,
never found anything.
The Broken Hills lease has just en-
countered a new ore body at 800 feet
depth, but its extent is now yet known.
1t is believed, however, that the new
find win give the lease another good
body of shipping ore. The Silver Moon
company win start a very extensive
development campaign after October
1st. The Alamo company has been
averaging something like four carloads
of ore per week, and indications are
that not only win this company in
crease its shipments, but that there will
be several shippers during the fall, max

STATION NEARS FINISH

Consolidated ground in Jumbotown
is quite busy place these days. The
steel and concrete framework for the
big electric station of the Consolidated
is now nearly completed, and a network
of wires has been strung and every
thing will be in readiness for connec-
ton when the equipment is received
and installed.
The buildings will be absolutely fire
proof and are of the most substantial
construction ever attempted in Gold
field. When buildings and equipment
are completed the company will have
spent something like $4,000 for the
plant, and will then be so fixed as not
to have to depend upon the vagaries OF
the local power system. When acci
dents occur and the power is cut oil
from Goldfeld for few hours, the
electrical machinery at the Consoli-
dated mine and mill keep on going,
lust the same, thanks to the storage
capacity that will be provided. And,
at the same time, the apparatus that
will be installed will greatly eeonomize
the use of current by the big company
and tend for higher efficiency of all
the motors used over the estate.
