years held the office of city engineer in

HARD TO GET AERIAL NAVY

The navy department is experienc ing difficulty in securing suitable bal looms for the forthcoming target practice in it's plan to develop a sys- tenn of defense against aerOplanes. Balloons are to be used for that pur pose. Tho department has been in correspondence with several manufac- turers of balloons. but so far has not received satisfactory proposition.
 The officers of the navy do not an ticipate that there will ever be any serious danger from the dropping of high explosives from aeroplanes on the decks of warships It is held that without any special preparations a good marksman in the navy or ma rine corps could keep the aeroplanes so high in the air that their drivers could not drop explosives on the ships with any degree of accuracy. The real problem to be solved is keeping air scouts away from ships so as to make reconnoitering ineffective.
 Attempts will first be made to de velop aerial marksmanship with service rifles. and later to use smaller caliber rifles.

ORE RAN $73 TO THE TON

When the cleanup was made at the Cinema mill of the 66 tons of ore from the NewsbOy claim. on the di- vide between Little Eldorado and Cleary, it was found that 70S ounces of amalgam had been secured. When this was retOrted it gave a gold brick weighing 295 ounces. showing that the ore had run nearly S73 to the ton, exclusive of the concen- trates, which, when assayed, showed a value of more than $90 to the ton.
 The ore was mined at a depth of 65 feet, and was taken from space about 20 feet square. The owners of the property, Sherard, Golden and Scrafford,, are pushing the develop ment work and are now down in their shaft about 110 feet. The gold brick has been on exhibition in Suter's window since the cleanup and has excited much admiration.
