ALL OF ONE NAME

1t is Of startling effect 10 learn
that the increase of suicide
revealed in government statistics
recently published is so pronounced
as to awaken the concern Of life
insur ance men, who propose to
take steps for Thorough study
of the causes for the enormous
rate in the hope Of providing some
effective remedy.
1t is estimated that in the year
1909 no elss than 1850 persons
took their own lives. The steadily
growing proportion is shown by
the fact that the rate per 100000
of population in 1890 was 1873. in
1900 1863 and 1909, 2O.6.
To San Francisco belongs the
awful pre-eminence of having the
highest act ual rate for the year
1909-59.9 as against Chicago's
1876. and the highest average rate
for he dccad e-51.6 against
Chicsgo's 21.9.
There is one thing that every
clergyman of the church can do
to help stem the black tide Of
contempt for human life, and the
weak scntimentality which, by its
pretended regard for the feelings
of the bereaved helps to condone
self-murder. When we are called

MUCH MONEY IS NOW
OFFERED FOR new MINES

The New-Letter published by
Thompson Towle & Co., New York.
states that there is plenty of money
for new mines: 1t says:
We recently pointed out the fact
that in five years no new copper
mines Of moment have been dis
covered, although the mining
interests Of the world are on the
still hunt for new properties. This
takes into consideration the various
porphyry coppers fer the reason
that these large deposits of dis.
seminated ore have been known to
exist for many years but it has
only been within the last five years
that these low grade deposits have
become &C numerically profitable.
In considering this subject the
last annual report of the United
Staets Mining Smelling & Refining,
company is worthy nf note. as it
j. therein stated that the eXplora-
tion department Of that company
had over 60 properties offered
only for examination, on which
only DO were worthy of considera-
tion. and fin al examination brought
the number down to two, and
these two were not new properties
in fact, both were well de.
veloped gold properties.
