ODORIOF White MAN OFFENSIVE TO JAPANESE

Another Says Scent of Cow Stable Mixed With Vanilla"

1t was no less keen an observer

Paris Scientist Says There's an Odor.
A Paris scientist, when asked con-

privilege of detecting the white

for dogs and other animals.
Ten years ago" he said, an old
lady died and her estate was thrown
into the courts. Recently her trunks
were taken from storage and the
contents divided among relatives.
AS soon as the lap dog of the late
dame saw the belongings Of his for

Too Boys Sentenced to 20 Years Began Careers
Lodting Around Pool Rooms and Beer Saloon,
From the Hawkinsvillc News and Dispatch.

The Savannah Press calls atten-
ton to a law in Georgia which pro-
hibits minor from playing pool in
public pool room and for a viola
tion of this law imposes a punish
ment upon the proprietor for per-
hitting the practice. There are
many boys in Savannah, says the
Press, who play pool, who loiter
during the major portion of the DAYS
in and around pool rooms, and who
receive not one atom of benefit from
either.
As our contemporary says, "the
enforcement of this law, so far as
1t respects the young men of a com
munity, is a necessity. While pool
is fascinating game, not in itself
harmful, yet the object of the law
is to keep the young man from en-

Presidential Bee Is Buzzing Around
PromiscuOusly Among Repubs.
There is no lack of candidates for
president in the republican party. In
Washington a story is being told that
seven insurgent senator's got togeth-
er recently for the purpose of map

about the nomination of an insur-
gent for president 1t was quickly
discovered that six of them were can
didates themselves. The story was
told by the seventh.
The presidential bee appears to be
disturbing Senator LaFollette more
than any other insurgent. If reports
are to be relied upon he is already
carrying on campaign for the nom
ination. 1t is the understanding that
Senator Bourne is to make a speech
in Boston urging his nomination.
Bourne isn't much of an insurgent
but it seems that Senator LaFollette
was unable to secure the services of
any other senator that could by any
possibility be classed as progressive.
He is hoping to capture the New
England vote, and really seems to
think that the people in that and,
in fact, other sections of the country
are insisting upon his nomination.
There are no unmistakable signs
yet that the republicans are demand
ing the nomination of an insurgent.
At present the outlook is that Presi-
ident Taft will be the republican

From the Trees by Starving PeO-

in that province as follows: Il new

ct would be hard to draw a pic
ture of the famine district that
would not be altogether misleading.
The country looks much the same
as any stretch of country anywhere
in China-long stretches of good
rich fields, just beginning to be green
with winter wheat. 1t is only as
we look closely and ask questions
that we find out the real state of
affairs. We look at the fields that
seem so prosperous, and realize
those fields all were under water last
summer, the fields of more than
1000, 900 people, and that the wheat
we see will not be ready until June,
and before that time unless help
comes the larger part of those who
planted it will be beyond using the
grain. And now we look again at
the people who have come down to
meet us with their rice bowls. In
the bowls there is no rice. They
contain chiefly hot water and weeds,
mixed with a few grains of precious
wheat bought with the relief money
given by the government The re-
lief amounts to about three cents,
given only to the very poorest; that
is, about half the population.
This is something of what fam
inc means now. What it is going to
mean soon we scarcely dare to think,
for it is still five months before
wheat harvest. Already in many
places the bark is taken from the
trees and eaten. The country is per
fectly peaceful, more so than usual.

Effect of Climate on Rocks.

Effect of Climate on Rocks.
Climate has an undoubted
effect upon rock disintegration
and other chemical changes in
the earth's crust. In the polar
regions solution naturally goes
on more slowly than in the war
mer climates, while in the tropics
the waters not only act contin-
ually, but impart increased en-
ergy by reason of their higher
temperatures. Frost is very eff
fective as an agent of rock dis
integration in climates where al
formations of freezing and thaw-
ing are most frequent.

ELK. CITY
FORMATIONS
Are Very Favorable for Deep
Mining.

Recent contributions under the
heading of Superficial Indica-
tions of Ore-Shoots in Depth"
by Messrs. Storms, Jannin, Cor
don and Mueller, in the Mining
and Scientific Press. bring out
many points that are more or
less directly applicable to the
mining region surrounding Elk
City. The very conservative
contribution by Mr.. Storms,
published Oct. 22d, after a very
able discussion of the effect of
deep canyons crossing the line
of strike of veins says: Min
eralization along the surface, as
indicated by the extensive de-
composition of the country rock
for a considerable distance on
either side of a fssure is an ex-
cellent sign of the existence of
strong veins or bodies of ore be-
low. There are exceptions to
this rule, but such mines as those
of the Utica gronp at Angels;
the Kennedy, near Jackson; the
keystone, at Amador City; and
the Bunker Hill near Keystone,
are a few of the many excellent
examples of extensive minerali-
zation at the surface where valu-
able mines have been developed. u
The contribution by Mr., Muel-
Ter, published in the same journal
on December 81, after discussing
Mr.. Storms theory of Superb
cial Indications of Ore-Shoots ir

other matter l would like to draw
attention to is the alteration o1
country rock along veins. This
may or may not be a direct indi
cation of continuity in depth

chemical action is not, and car

pressure. 1t is therefore not
unreasonable to believe where
such alterations characterizes
the wall-rocks of a mineral vein,
that it's presence is a good indi-
cation of continuity in depth.
In the Elk City District the
prevailing formation is gneiss,
intrusive dikes of pegmatite or
granite, diorite, andesite, quartz
porphyry and other igneous rocks
are of frequent occurrence.
Many of the veins occur together
with intrusive dikes. while others
occur independent of dikes. The
development of the district has
not proceeded far enough to de-
termine definitely what part
these dikes have taken in the
naturalization of the veins, but
it is fact recognized by mining
geologists all over the world that
the presence of igneous dikes
near metalliferous veins is one
of the surest indications of the
extension of the veins to great
depth. The wall rock of the
veins are in most cases meta
morphosed and greatly decom-
posed to a depth sufficient to
make it certain that it is from
other causes than weathering.
The veins in this district are
almost without exception as far
as known accompanied by a
heavy streak of gouge which
would indicate that great shear
ing along line Of the strike of the
vein had occurred and had ex-
tended to great depth making ii
possible for the deposition of ore.
In the district there are many
monster veins that are common
ly called dikes, in which the veir
matter is composed of porphy
rite schist, pegmatite, dioritt
and epidote, with innumerablt
tale seams and occasionally large
quartz veins, indicate faultine
, and shearing movements distri
buted over a wide area. These
