the State Bank case were enlivenej
by some gent emanly tiffs between
the attorneys. Receiver Wildes
was upon the stand telling what
he had done in the way of collect
ing money on many securities that
were held by the bank. Massey
objected to the volubility of the
witness, Attorney Mack stated that
the witness was testifying just as
he had instructed him to and then
the Court took a hand in the
matter and stated that he would
insist that the question and
nothing else be answered. Wilde.
appologized for his slip of the
tongue and the case continual.

WESTERN PACIFIC
EARNINGS GROW

That the Western Pacific is
beginning to show revenues and
that it is increasing the volume of
business is evident from the
following dispatch from New
York:
In July. the first month in which
the Western Pacific has been con-
sidered on an operating basis, it
reported gross revenues of $422,-
O84. This may be considered a
fair volume of traffic for a new
line, recently built. through an
undeveloped country and under
the present necessity of depending
for its earnings almost wholly upon
through traffic between terminal
points.
In the second month of current
fiscal year it improved upon the
showing made in July, which ratio
of improvement appears 20 have
heen continued in September over
the showing made in August. In
August, officials estimate. it
earned gross revenues of $495, 900,
gain of $4,000 over July. In
September, on basis of traffic for
the first ten day. the company is
expected to be able to report gross
earnings of not less than 1925, 900
or gain of $4,000 over August
and one of 500, 600 over July.
Officials state that interchange
business at Salt Lake between the
Denver & Rio Grand and Western
Pacific moving both east and west
has in the past TWO weeks been
the heaviest experien ced since the
Western Pacific first commenced
through operations more than a
year ago.
On basis of interchange basis
since July ! last a Denver official
estimates that gross revenues from
Western Pacific business in the
current fiscal year will bring in
So. 100000 to the Denver alone
The Western Pacific gross re-
venues the coming year, if traffic
is maintained on present basis, and
allowing for some falling off in
winter months, will aggregate
between 100000 and $1,000
600, and available net earnings
for fixed charges will be over
81 $50, 900.
In July tr; flic and transpOrta-
tor expenses, which enter into
the cost of conducting transport
alton, represented 45.1 per cent of
gross revenues. The company
spent 1913 per cent of gross
revenues on muintancc of way and
equipment and taxes took up 3.3
per ccnt total revenues.

skip TENDER HAS
HIS BACK BROKEN

A more frightful experience
than that which befellJ ohm VIVA en-
skip tender at the Johnnie mine,
at ) o'clock Monday morning is
hard to imagine.
He was alone on the 9OO.foot
level and was about to come to the
surface at the end of his shift.
He gave the usual three bells. the
preparatory signal to hoist, follow
ed Immediately by the one bell
signal on which the engineer
started the hoist. Whalen it seems
had the habit of giving the signal
first and stepping on the skip
afterwards. This time he delayed
fraction of a second too long and
fell beneath the skip as it started.
The heavy skip doubled his body
under it like So much paper, pass
Ing entirely over the, unfortunate
man. The fir ghtfully mutilated
hody fell back into the stump a few
feet below. Although his back
was broken. the spinal cord being
entirely severed and his ribs torn
from the spine and the bones of
the chest and back frightfully
crushed, he never for a moment
lost Consciousness, and was able
to making superhuman efforts to
place canteen which he was
carrying under his chin and so
kept his head above water.
The engineer on the surface,
noticing the shock when the skip
was thrown from the track at once
stopped the drum, fearing that
disaster had overtaken his conrad.
Being alone. he was obliged to
make the decent by means of the
ladders. 900 feet, so that it was
nearly as minutes before he
reached Whalen. Securing hold
as soon as possible the engineer
finally succeeded in getting
Whalen to the surface.
An automobile was at once dis
patched to Vegas for surgical aid,
and being delayed by the terrible
condition of the roads after the
rains, did not reach Vegas until
Monday evening. AS soon as
possible DR.. Martin was on the
way back to jennie in the auto,
arriving there at 8 o'clock Tues
day morning In the meantime the
injured man suffered the m Ist
frightfuI agony and only by
administering opiates was it posi-
bl, to give him any relief. Then
on stretcher held by four men,
in order to lessen the shock, the
injured man was carried in a
wagon Id miles to the railroad
thence by rail to Las Vegas, the
train being delayed by the wash
out and not arriving until 1920
in the evening.
= Whalen, although fatally injured
still lives and suffers. He is today
paralyzed from the waist down
yet the physicians believe that he
may live in agony possibly for
several weeks before death merci-

NAVAL TIP FOR sEAGoERs
Lemon and Ginger Should Be Given
to Those Not Sure of Themselves

CONTINUED next week.

A1surgeon on the naval hospital
ship Solace has a remedy for seasick-
ness which should be of interest to
folks who are going on winter cruises
and are apprehensive that they may
have to stay below deck most of the
time.
1t is simply a decoction of lemon
and ginger, and may be taken in the
form of lemon soda and ginger ale, or
dash of seltzer may be added to a
little lemon juice and Jamaica ginger.
The doctors idea is that the lemon
causes a greater secretion of the gas
trio juices and that the ginger serves
as a stimulant, the need of which can
be best appreciated by the victim.
The remedy has been used on the
Solace with various degrees of sue.

will prove effective for everybody. 1t
should be taken in small doses as soon
as trouble seems to be approaching

well-advanced stage.

seem, It can be made after a little

cure is usually affected in short
time, and with little real incon-
venience to the patient.
Proper treatment in this case
does not mean manipulation of
the affected parts. A tubercular
joint must have complete rest in
order to allow Natures forces to
repair the tissues. The osteopath,
therefore, proceeds as does any
good surgeon, to put the joint in a
state of rest. He does more than
other surgeons do, however, for in
addition to fixation of the joint he
gives specific treatment to secure
about the joint that free circulation
which enables the phagocytes of
the blood to destroy the bacilli OF
tuberculosis. Rightly administer
ed, osteopathy is the ideal treat
ment in these c ases.
