he required size. This makes 80, 900
,ourds to the acre, which at three

sum of 5000.
Prof. H. Nees, the state horticultur-
st. reports that he examined the
yourd plantation and found the plants
trained on trelises Is or 20 inches
apart in rows and Connected by
inc of one by four and built on posts
IL feet high connected by perpendicu-
lar wires for the plants to run on. He
reports that the dry weather did not
seem to agect the plant and that the
product by first tearing OF the rind
and then sleeping in vat Is easily
prepared for the market, the fiber be-
ing separated from the pulp and the
seed.
Prof Nees also reports that no great
capital is necessary to engage In this
industry, the cheapest and simplest
agricultural implements being used in
the cultivation and the crop is very
easy to harvest being large and easily
picked. No costly store house is re-
quired and the product can be kept
any length of time without spelling.
There is no duty on the import OF
dish-rag gourds in Germany, freight
charges amounting to $500 for 2,24O
pounds and as the fiber is very light
the freight charge is a small item
The gourd grows on poor and appar-
emily neglected land, preferably with
clay subsoil. Prof. Nees believes the
industry will grow to great dimensions
in this country.

Indianapolis. Ind, Sept. TO- BY !
vote OF to 4 the City Council list
night adopted q resolution introduced
by Councilmen Owen. Mccarthy and
Ruebens. referring to the Impeach-
ment Committee with power to act,
charges that tip was given recently
to certain saloon men and gamblers
that they might operate on Sundays.
A minority report exonerating May
or Shank Ii every way and expressing
the belief that he and Police Superin-
tendent Hyland are enforcing the
laws, was offered by Councilmen Stiltx
and Blumberg. but It was voted down.
The minority stated It had investi-
gated very carefully, and has been un-
able to discover where tip was given
to any one permitting law violations.
The majority report contained the
bald declaration that evidence OF lax
ity in the enforcement Of the liquor
laws has been discovered and that
there is evidence that tip was re-
ceived by certain saloon keepers re.
Gently that they might violate the law.
The Council adopted the report en-
powering the Impeachment COMMITTEES
to draw as heavily as 1t desires for
expense money to 80 ahead with the
Investigation. While Mayor 6hank's
name was not mentioned In the report
1t was taken for granted that the pro

the adoption Of the resolution il the
first step OF carefully laid plan to
impeach him. The members OF the
Council who backed the majority re-
port have been regarded as anti-Shank
men for some time. Between the May

has been wide breach. The Mayor
has urged the Council to 90 ahead
with its efforts to impeach him. II II

in the game, but It is said that attor-

Merchants and Manufacturers
to Be Well Represented
in This Event.
MANY ENTRIES RECEIVED
AND THE INDICATIONS ARE. THIS
FEATURE OF THE FALL FESTI-
VAL WILL BE THE BEST ONE
EVER HELD.

Judging from the rapidity with
which Richmond's merchants and
manufacturers are signifying their in
tention of exhibiting in the Fall Festi-
val Industrial Parade this feature of
the 1910 Festival will be an unusual
success.
In response to the letters sent out
by the Committee in charge, postals
are being received, which in almost
all cases are entries. With its six
divisions based upon industries repre-
sented the parade will doubtless ex-
coed in length and quality the parades
of former years, and will show in an
impressive way, to the local and visit
ing public, the great variety and ex-
tent of Richmond's industries.
1t is hoped that all entries will be
received by September 18th, in order
that proper case may be given to plac-
ing exhibitors, and to planning for
mastering the parade.

GOurd Industry is the Latest
to Depel0pe in the Southwest

San Antonio. Tex, Sept. 10.-Gourd:
not exactly the old fashioned kind thai
we drank out of at the we'll, but
homebred variety called the dish-rae
gourd, is the newest industry develop
ed in Texas and it holds out big posi-
bilities of profit.
Albert Schwenke, formerly of Ger.
many, now located in Harris county,
on the Gulf coast. is the farmer who
has demonstrated the possibilities of
the dish-rag gourd. The fiber of this
gourd is extensively used in Germany
for manufacturing the coarser forms
of crash and burlap. The available
supply is limited to Japan and Africa
and in these countries certain pests
having attacked the gourd the German
manufacturers are up against short
age in the crop.
Mr.. Schwenke found out by cores
pondence that six millions pounds
were needed to supply these manufac-
turers SO he started in to experiment
BY cross colonization he produced a
product splendidly adapted to Texas
conditions. A year or two of expert
mentation has proven that on insects
attack this plant and that it flourishes.
The gourds grow from 1S to 20
inches long and for a gourd this size
the German manufacturers pay three
cents. Mr.. Schwenke says that he
has been able to grow about three
thousand plants to the acre and that
by pinching of the smaller gourds
each plant will produce ten gourds of

Mr. Pennell has not made an active
canvass for the senatorship, though in
the session of 1907 he was the Democratic

Frye and received the total Democratic

 The Cactus ore bod wis estimated to have an average thickness of 100 feet vertically. In sinking the Ham ilton shaft sulphide ore was first struck 1S0 feet from the surface and continued downward for about 100 feet. Thus, in the present workings, the two lower levels, the fourth and the fifth, are below the ore body at the shaft stations. On the fourth level, however, the drifts pass into the ore at no great distance from the station, thus showing that the ore body apparently dips southwestward into the Pinto property. The fact that the drifts driven in an opposite direction on the third level of the Hamilton shaft passed out of the ore as they were driven eastward and entered the oxidized zone. goes further to prove that the ore body dips south westward.
 In view of the showing obtained at the Cactus property thus far. the churn drilling to be continued there in the future will be watched with interest. Although of the thirteen
