ON FIRE PREVENTION DAY
Insurance Commission Young
Receiving Many Letters; 1t Will
Be of Great Service

Insurance Commissioner Young said
yesterday that he IS very much graft
fed at the interest that is being shown
in Fire Prevention Day" and the
number OF replies that he is receiy-
ing from the newspapers n citi-
zens throughout the State. "These
letters he said. show that the peo-
lie are alive to the Importance OF the
matter and that on next Monday We
hope to have a day hat will be long
remembered in North Carolina, be
cause OF the progress made in the
stopping of our annual fire waste"
In reply to h question as to the
best way Of observing the day. Com
missioner Young said an appeal has
been made to the mayor and their
associates. to the chiefs Of fire de-
artnent and their men, to the mem
oers Of the merchants associations
and other business men, as we'll as
to the presidents Of the wornen's clubs
and their members to unite their
energies in seeing the day is proper
iy observed. Commissioner Young
it will be well where il IS
lcnnd practicable to have a meet
ing OF the citizens al which the mat
Ter can be discussed and short ad-
dresses. He urges the mayors and
different citizens of the towns to call
these meetings and preside at the
same. he says it will also be q
splendid idea if committees coma posed
Of city officials. business men. firemen
ana insurance agents shall make a
thorough inspection Of the different
Of the cities and towns. This
would tend to open their eyes TO the
dangers from fires and serve TO i'm
press upon them the great danger
IN such a way and serve TO show
them how by proper attention and
care these dangers can be avoided.
commissioner Young says one way
IN which this day will be a great
service to the people, if properly OBJ
served. is by So arousing the citizens
OF the State that they will not only
Ieei an interest in the Investigations
nat are required to be made under
the law, but require that officials shall
make these Investigations with such
regularity and in such a manner az
snail insure the remoya of all un-
Eecessary fire hazards found through
out the State in our cities and towns.

EAGLE MAKES
FINE SHOWING
Assay Test Shows Over S..
10000, Per Ton in Gold
and Silver.

w. A. Edwards, manager of
the Eagle Mining Company, who
Is now at Atlanta, Georgia, has
received from the N. p. Pratt
laboratory a report of the test
of concentrates recently shipped
for treatment. He writes: "Con-
centrates from the new mill of
the Eagle Mining Company at
Edwardsburg, Idaho, have been
assayed at the N. P. Pratt labor
atory here and show values of
$500 gold, 1925 silver, total
of $6,O22.25 in gold and silver pei
ton. They also carry about 60
per cent lead and an excess of
iron, making them very desirable
for smelters. Owing to the snow
in the mountains of central Idaho
these concentrates cannot be ship
ped out until next summer, but
the stockholders here are elated
over the success of their venture
and it will doubtless lead to fur
ther investment of Georgia cap
ital in the mines of the Edwards
burg district.
Many prominent Georgians,
among them Senator elect Hoke
Smith, are stockholders in the
Eagle company. The general
manager is w. A. Edwards, a
native Georgian, who went to Ida
no several years ago.
Frank Thornburg came in the
first of the week from the Big
Greek country where he spent
several weeks investigating that
section. Mr.. Thornburg has had
considerable experience in the
mining regions throughout the
United States as well as those OF
Alaska and he says that section
of the country beats anything he
has ever seen and predicts one
of the greatest legitimate mining
booms ever seen in the northwest
Meadows Eagle.

MAGIC FOOT DRAFTS" AFAKE

Magic Foot Drafts" is a widely
exploited humbug from Jackson,
Mich, advertised internationally,
consisting of mass of pine tar and
some other ingredients spread on a
piece of oilcloth and sold to
simple-minded people to apply to
the soles of their feet. The value
of the plaster mass for one pair is
estimated at one-third of a cent:
they sell for a dollar pair, &C.
cording to the journal of the
American Medical Association.
They are supposed to draw the
rheumatic poison from the whole
sytcm through the soles of the
feet. According to Mr.. Samuel
Hopkins Adams in his Great Ameri-
can Fraud series. "They might as

of gullible suckers must be almost
enough to compensate them for
carrying on the business to say

Corners is partner of Pope who

CHASTITY FIND NEAR LOvELOCK

District Attorney j. A. Gala
han has received letter from Love
lock telling cf the finding of two
skeletons on the road from Love-
lock to Coppereid, about twelve
miles southeast of Lovelock.
The skeletons had apparently
been buried long time. and if
there was any clothing on them
it had rotted. They were wrapped
in gunysacks or material of that
kind. One of the skele IONS had
long hair and is believed to be
that of a woman. They were
buried about six feet beneath the
surface.
John Reid, for whom the camp
of Coppereid is named, recalls that
about nine years ago he found a
set of woman's Undertaking and
some clothing of a man near the
place wi ere the CHASTITY find has
just been made. The woman's
undertaking was bloodstanined.
On some of the mans clotl ing was
found the trademarks of Carson
City bushes firm. About the same
time span of horses was found,
with harness on, near the Carson
sink. No one in that section
recognized the horses, and con-
ne. citing the finding of the horses
with that of the bloody clothing
the theory was advanced that a
murder had been committed and
that the parties committing the
murder had taken the wagon and
left or lost the horses.
The letter which brought the
information to Mr.. Callahan did
not state how the skeletons came
to be found. 1t may be that they
were found in prospecting. or
possibly some wild animal brought
fragments of the cloth to the
surface, which was seen by some
one passing. when an investigation
was made.
Mr.. Callahan has written TO
inquire when the inquest will be
held and it is his intention to at
tend. -Humb odt Star.
