CHAPTER Xxx.

Breaking Out In a New Place.
Hunger reused everybody early the
next morning, Friday. Leila Mercer
had discovered box OF bonbons that
she had forgotten, and we divided
them around. Aunt Selma asked for
the candled fruit and got it-Quite
third OF the box. We gathered IN the
lower hall and on the stairs and nib
bled nauseating sweets while Mr..
HARRISON examined the telephone.
He did not glance in my direction.
Betty and Dal were helping him, and
he seemed very cheerful. Max sat
with me on the stairs. Mr HARRISON
had just unscrewed the telephone box
from the wall and was squirting into
1t, when Bella came downstairs. 1t
was her first appearance. but as she
was always late, nobody noticed.
When she stopped. just above us on
the stairs, however, We looked up,
and she was holding to the rail and
trembling perCeptibly
"Mr HARRISON, will you-Can you
come upstairs?" she asked. Her voice
was strained, almost reedy. and her
lips were white.
Mr.. HARRISON stared up at her, with
the telephone box In his hands.
"Why-er-certainly." he said, but
unless it's very important, I'd like to
FIX this talking machine. We want to
make a food record"
I'd like to break a food record"
Max put IN, but Bella created a di-
version by sitting down suddenly on
the star just above us. and burying
her face in her handkerchief.
Jim is SICK" she said, with sob.
"He-he doesn't want anything to
eat, and his head aches. He-said for
me-to go away and let him die!"
Dal dropped the hammer immedi-
ately, and Lollie Mercer sat petrified,
with bonbon halfway to her mouth.
For, of course, 1t was unexpected,
finding sentiment of any kind in |
Bella, and none of them knew about |
the scene in the den in the sman |
hours Of the morning.
"Sick!" Aunt Selma said, from a
hall chair. Sick! Where?"
"All over" Bella Quavered. His

heard what was wrong with the tele-
phone wire.
It had been cutI Cut through with
a pair of silver manicure scissors
from the dressing table in Bella's
room, where Aunt Selma slept! The
wire had been clipped where 1t came
into the house, Just under a window,
and the scissors still lay on the sill
1t was mysterious enough, but no
one was interested in the mystery
just then. We wanted food, and want
ed It at once. Mr. HARRISON fixed the
wire, and the first thing we did, Of
course, was to order something to eat.
Aunt Selma went to bed just after
luncheon with indigestion, to the re-
lief of every one in the house. She
had been most unpleasant all morn
ing.
When she found herself I'll, how
ever, she insisted on having Bella,
and that made trouble at once. We
found Bella with her cheek against
the door into Jims room, looking
maudlin while he shouted love mes
sages to her from the other side At
first she refused to stir, but after
Anne and Max had tried and failed,
the rest Of us went to her in a body
and implored her. We said Aunt
Selma was In awful shape-whiCh
she was, as to temper-and that she
had thrown a mustard plaster az
Anne. which was true.
SO Bella went, grumbling, and Jim
was maniac. We had not thought 1t
would be so bad for Bella, but Aunt
Selma fell asleep soon after she took
charge, holding Bella's hand, and
slept for three hours and never let
go!
About two that afternoon the sun
came out, and the rest OF us went UP to
the roof.
stayed on the roof after the 9TH
ers had gone, and for some time I
thought was alone. After a while,
l got a whitf of smoke, and then
saw Mr. HARRISON far over in the cor
ner, one foot on the parapet, moodily
smoking a pipe. He was gazing out
over the river, and paying no atten-
tion to me. This was natural, con-
that I had hardly spoken to
him all day.
would not let him drive me away,
so sat still, and it grew darker and
colder. He filled his pipe now and
then, but he never looked in my di-
rection. Finally, however, as 1t grew
very dusk, he knocked the ashes out
and came toward me.
Il am going to make a request, Miss
he said evenly. please keep

until was down. and I
heard him close the roof door firmly
behind me.

Jim fidgeted. Bella was having
srasms of mirth to herself, but the
HARRISON man did not smile. He
stood for a moment looking at the
fire: Then he thrust his hands deep
anto the pockets of his dressing gown
and stalked over to me. He did not

Smelling Industry of Utah.

With the vast quantity of coal and ore being produced, it is not surprising that Utah has become a great smelling and ore milling state. Salt Lake val ley is today one of the greatest smelt- ing ceuters in the world. There are four smelters in the vicinity of Salt Lake; the American Smelling & Refin- ing company, the United States smell ter, and Utah Consolidated shelter at Murray, just south of Salt Lake; and the American Smelling & Refining company shelter at Garfield, a new town just west of Salt Lake. The last named has a daily capacity of 5000 tons. In addition to these, there is a shelter near Ogden, the Tampa at Bingham, Knights shelter at Tintic, and one at Newhouse, Beaver county. The great International shelter, To- cated near Tooele City, which was completed last year, adds another big plant to the already large list of smell ters.
 Near Garfield the Utah Copper con- pany and the Bingham Consolidated Mining company have each recently erected immense concentrating plants with an aggregate daily capacity of l3,000 tons-From Natural Resources of Colorado and Utah. issued by the Denver & Rio Grande railroad.

The Black Hills.

Though public attention has not been attracted as much to the Black Hills of South Dakota during the past year or more as in former years, yet pro- gress has been steady and results are being secured.
 The principal advancement made has been in the line of more economic. al treatment of the ores, though the work of opening up new properties is going forward and more work of this kind may be expected before the year ends.
 The most marked results in the eco- nomical treatment of ores have been achieved by the Wasp No. ?, which has recently gone upon a dividend basis as a result of the profits made possible by it's new mill. In this mill it is now treating ores running less than 2S ton, with 3$ considered, re- latively speaking, as high grade.
 Easing expectations upon the results secured by the Wasp No. 2, another company-which, by the way, is con- solidation of two old companies that have been trying tor years to make success of their properties, has laid plans for the construction of similar plant. Its capacity is to be 250 or 300 tons a day. Interesting to note in con- nection with both these properties is the fact that economy is effected in mining operations through the open cut method of taking out the ore; the surface formation, ranging in depth from a few inches to eighteen feet, being stripped as a preliminary to the starting of work.
 The Homestake mine has long been noted for the profits it has made from low grade ores, but if indications are fulfilled some of the smaller properties

A transfer was immediately made and Dr.. McGregor, Mir. Grimes and Dr. c. A. Shepard boarded the special train at 6:23 and left for the west, making the trip in seven hours and thirty-seven minutes, the regular running time being fourteen hours and five minutes. Mir. Grimes paid over COOS for the special. He also had over 50, ,OOOs worth of gold bullion, a clean up of the Tom Reed mine, in the bag gage car of the regular train.-Nee- dles Eye.

While the company has thousands of tons of low grade ore, it cannot be worked at profit as long as gasoline and all other supplies have to be freighted overland from Dome or from Mohawk. The mine was discovered by Felix Mayhew. and was sold by him and his associates in the spring of 1906 for 35O,OOOS. Since then it has paid many thousands of dollars to it's own CTS.

Grand GuIch Mine.

During the first half of this year the Grand Gulch Mining company of Mo have county, Arizona, owned by Salt Lake people, has shipped out six cars, a car a month. of its high grade copper running from thirty to thirty-six per cent, the total ore shipped amounting to 2O.OO0S. This week settlements were made on the last car 10 be for warded to the smelters until Septem- Der l to St. Thomas, forty-ive miles from the mine. This last was a small car, but it brought over 2,200S, or better than 55S ton for forty tons. This was the tail end of the ore stored at Moapa station on the Salt Lake Route in southern Nevada.
 The Grand Gulch is employing be- tween fifteen and twenty men and keeps two six-horse freighting outfits busy now stacking up the first-class ore at St. Thomas.
 The Grand Gulch Mine has three grades of ore. The first is the thirty to thirty-six per cent copper ore being shipped; the second is copper ores run ming between seventeen and twenty per cent; the third those showing be- tween six and eight per cent of the red metal. There is now stored on the Grand Gulch dumps upwards of 2,00O tons of the second-claSs ores. In most localities this third rate stuff would be considered pretty high grade.
 When seen yesterday, w. P. Jen- nings, manager of the property, sad he is now sinking a shaft from the 400 to 6O0-foot level. Everything so far mined has been carbonates. They prob ably run so high owing to secondary enrichments. At this greater depth it is hoped that the sulphide zone will be reached, and that the size of the ore veins will be greatly increased.
 For some time the management has been figuring on traction engines for hauling the ores from mine to railroad. Several different styles are under con- sideration, but so far the ever-to-be-de- pended-upon man-hOrse-wagon mode of transportation has been adhered to, but greatly reduced costs per ton are promised by power promoters.-Her- ald-Republican.
