product OF weakened vitality. He
sadly and rather proudly recognizes
that the world is against him. He

his insuf1ciencies.

$4,000 tons than the report of last

THE formation passed through by
the diamond drill, that is being
sent down from the 1,500-foot lev
ell of the Mizpah shaft has recently
changed" said President j. S. Aus
tin yesterday in discussing the cause
of the strength of the Tonopah
Mining stock. Mr.. Austin, in CON-
pany with Director Samuel Bell Jr.,
and former general manager, Frank
A. Keith, arrived Sunday evening
from Philadelphia, for a brief stay,
and inspection of the property. In
discussing the reported strike as
made by the diamond drill, he said:
while the change, which is from
rhyolite into porphyry, cannot be
termed as strike, it is highly fiat
tering, for it demonstrates that the
barren zone does not exist with
depth. The porphyry was found at
a depth of 1900 feet and we will
have the drill sent down as far as
it goes in order to find out, if pos
sible, the extent of this porphyry
strata.
Practically the same discovery
was made by the drill when it was
in operation from the 770-foot leve
of the Silver Top shaft. We dc
not expect to encounter any ledges
and the chances of doing SO are
rather slim, but the main purpose
is just to explore the formation.

THIS is WORTH READING

Dear Daddy Jim:-I think we
should all have an education. I think
the girls need an education the same
as the boys. Why not let them have
an equal footing? If you expected to
take two young colts to work to-
gether for life, would you give one
better training than the other? No,
OF course not. You would want them
to pull together So it is with the
boys and girls. Suppose Mr. Brown
has a daughter, and Mr. Grey has a
son; they both have an equal amount
or property and live near to one an
other; Mr.. Grey sends his son to col
lege and he becomes a doctor; Mr..
Brown does not send his daughter to
college and she marries an unlearned
young man, who is a farmer He is
an honest, slow-going young fellow,
who is travelling in the same old ruts:
he votes the same ticket at the polls
that his father did; he is not am
bilious, and his wife falls into the
same kind of ruts. On the other
side, Mr.. Grey's son has gone on up
the steps of the ladder of life and has
become one Of Uncle Sans greatest
doctors and citizens. He is a sue
cess. And who can tell what Mr..
Browns daughter might have be-
come if she had had the chance; but
no, she did not need an education;
all she needed was to learn to scrub.
sew, cook and do general house work,
and perhaps her husbands main help
IN the cotton field. 1t makes me sick
to hear such talk as girls not need
ing an education. Everybody knows
that girls are just as smart in school
as boys. What would Mrs. w. H.
FELTON, have been without an educa-
ton? Would she have been the great
Southern writer she is today? Ger
tainly not Now, boys, don't be hard
on the girls, for some day they will
vote and hold the highest offices in
the land, and who knows but that
some day we will have a woman pres
ident? God speed the day. Now,
kids, don't get to thinking I am hard
on the boys; I am not. l am a boy
myself and just in my teens, but
somehow I just can't help liking the
girls Well, I will stop this ALFRED
scribbling and let the girls defend
themselves Good luck to Daddy Jim
and all of the Cousins.-Your friend,
