The Mission mine is now 60

percentage of lead. About three
cars of ore are in the bins.

While the ore market was
much stronger in price the past
week, there was little change in
the demand exhibited. The tom
mage taken was not so much
greater than previous weeks as
to make a notable showing. The
shipments, owing to leftover
purchases of previous weeks,
was, however, slightly better.
The base price range was $40 to
SAB for the major portion of the
car-lot sales, although there
we're a few instances of very un'
desirable ores selling for lower
prices, but these were the excep-
tons. On the contrary there
were instances of sludge ores
this week selling for a base price
of SAL. so, which is much better
than ordinary. On the other
hand, there was considerable
shading of prices on the smaller
lots. The base price on the con-
tract was $4O.77. The better
grades sold for $42 and S42.5O,
with the special grades SAB. The
high base price was S45.50.
Calamine ores were better,
ranging from SO to $23 for 40
per cent zinc.
Production for the week was
figured at 5000 tons, while the
surplus stocks at the beginning
of the week were held at $500
tons. This will be cut down
slightly, it is believed, this COM
ing week.
Lead ores sagged pretty badly
throughout the week, the best
prices being SIS for the best ores
and the base price went as low
as $54 in many instances, with
much less demand on the part of
all the buyers of this ore.
Production was good, while
the surplus stocks were not
changed to any great degree.
f. The spelter market advance
was the feature of the weeks
zinc market. This metal reached
the $3.50 level and is quoted
strong again in the face of the
better conditions prevailing in
the iron and steel markets.
Lead was strong at $4.27 1-2.

REourEsCANT IN PACE.


The church and the diocese oil
Louisville mourn the loss OF three
faithful servants this week. Father
Neafsey, secular priest; Father
Dunn, a Dominican, and Brother
Richard, member of the Passionist
community, answered the call to
the bar of final judgment on Tues
day. Each loved the Cross, the
Rosary and the Blessed Sacrament.
Two we're natives of America and
the third of Irish birth. At the
knees of Irish mothers all three
learned to lisp the Our Father and
hail Mary. From earliest childhood
each had been taught to serve God.
to love Him and his holy mother.
The life of each is worthy of emula-
ton. They flung away ambition to
become followers of our Divine
Saviour. Verify they took up the
cross and followed Him. Their lives
were lessons in humility and self
denial. Let us hope that each has
entered upon his eternal reward
May they rest in peace and may per-
petual light shine upon them.

PROHIBITION A FAILURE.

Prohibition has proven a failure
in Tennessee. 1t has been tried and
found wanting. AS a result the
Mayors of Memphis, Nashville.
Knoxville and Chattanooga have
conferred and will wait on the pres
ent Legislature in an effort to have
the obnoxious prohibition laws
repealed. The law IN Tennessee
has not bene enforced; yet this does
not mean that it could not be en-
forced; it means rather that the
people of the cities concerned had
doubts as to the desirability of the
law, or convictions to the effect that
the law was undesirable.
In evry State where prohibition
has been legalized it has proved a
farce. Even the United States
army has provided an instance of
the folly of those who would seek
TO reform by coerciye measures. In
every instance where prohibition has
been legalized the cities and com.
munities effected have been flooded
with bad whisky and worse beer 1t
is time that the leading prohibition
lists were realizing these facts.
