Burglars whose work showed them
to be professionals operated success
fully probably during the night of
Dec. IA in South WATERFORD, Me, and
escaped without leaving clue to their
identity. The new post office only
opened the day previous and the
grocery store of Edwin Garlic were
the places visited by the thieves. In
the first place 1000 stamps were
secured valued at about $50 and three
mail bags were ripped open. At the
store the plunderers blew open the
safe and secured $25 and one dozen
watches. They also carried away
two or three fur coats.

A rather interesting discussion has
been started In some of the dairy pa
pers of the country on the relative in
fuence of the dam and sire upon the
butter fat production of their female
offspring One writer contends that
COW from a low test dam follows al
most invariably the low per cent ten
dency Of her dam. II there is anything
in this claim 1t puts In rather ridicu-
lous light the claims that have been
made in the past as to the merit of
dairy sires In improving the butter ca
pacity OF their offspring.

Associate Justice Albert NJ Spear
of the supreme judicial court OF
Maine, recently, rendered a decision
on a bill in equity brought by the
Brunswick & Topsham Water Dis
trict against the town of Topsham,
to reform a clause in the contract be-
tween the parties. He upholds the
claim of the Water District, that the
intent of the signers of the contract
was for the town of Topsham to
guarantee interest on the cost of the
entire extension necessary to supply
water to that town, rather than ON
the cost of the plant within the limits
of the town of Topsham, as the con-
tract read.

Not yet has Uncle Sam begun to
reap any harvest from the passengers
that have been landed at Portland
from the big steamships. There
have been plenty of people come and
many of them have had dutiable
goods, but all these have gone on
their way to Canada. Those who
have come to the United States have
for the most part been poor immi-
grants who have had just their per
sonal belongings with them. Up to
the present time, Uncle Sam has not
collected, this season, at that port
over $50 in duty, but there will come
a time in the spring when more will
be realized.

The remarkable radish stories that
have appeared frequently in many
country papers are understood when
it is known that this giant radish is
not of home origin, but was introduced
from Japan some four years ago. 1t
is called the Sakurijama radsh and
sometimes attains a weight of thirty
or forty pounds and the size Of a wa
ter bucket. 1t is most edible when
about half grown The Japs often
boil 1t as we do turnips or cabbage.

That Mr. and Mrs Isaac keene of
Clinton know a good COW when they
see it and that they have now a COW
that is a champion butter-maker of
the state is proved by her record as
kept by Mrs. Keene. This COW is a
full-blooded Jersey She weighs about
800 pounds and is nine years old, and
her greatest number of pounds of but
ter in one week is 81 pounds and / l
ounces. Now in finding out this
record, Mrs. Keene set the milk in
the month of June in old-fashioned
pans and it is to be iupposed that
if the milk had been cared for through
the separator process the cows
record for that week would have been
greater.

UTAH SHOULD HAVE
MORE STOCK TRADE
Local Mining Exchange Has
Opportunity to Increase
Its Business.

During the present dull period when
the Salt Lake Stock and Mining ex-
change Is in possession Of time and leis-
ure, some action should be taken to
secure for the local exchange some or
much OF the business in Utah stocks
that now Is handled by the New York
curb. This is not a new thought. but its
Importance is more apparent than ever.
Some sort OF a missionary movement
should be set on foot TO convince the
eastern investor that his buying and SELL
ing OF Utah mining shares should be
done here on the exchange.
Two years or SO ago the New York
curb brokers did a rushing business in
Utah stock. especially in the Tintics.
This was productive OF splendid reVe-
nue. to local brokers. and 1t gave the ex-
change the busiest year OF its history.
But il was an extremely bad thing for
Salt Lake. 1t is heard frequently that
some eastern brokerage firms dealing IN
large blocks OF Utah issues are more in
clined TO bucket the orders than to han
die them in the legitimate way.
There IS way 10 bring this business
back 10 Salt Lake and II is UP to the
officials of the exchange to bring it
about. or at least 10 make the attempt.
No argument is needed as 10 what II
would mean to the local exchange and
now being done in the east II the local
exchange can show how and by what
firms the alleged bucketing of orders Is
being done this. In connection with the
lower commissions in Salt Lake and the
proximity OF Salt Lake TO the camps In
ment that would win the majority OF in
some sort of an eastern campaign
should be taken Immediately.

MINE INDUSTRY IS
IN FINE CONDITION
Phoebe Operator Sees Great
Chances for the Western
Ore Producer.

John Cook the veteran mining man OF
Phoebe. is one OF the many who believe
that the mining industry OF the western
section OF which Salt Lake Is the heart,
is In splendid condition, With greater
promise for the future than ever before.
Mr.. Cook is a guest at the Cullen hotel,
and he Is here for the purpose OF round
ing up matters OF importance TO the
Mendha company, OF which he is large
owner.
There never was time, states Mr.;
Cook. that the smelling companies and
the producers were working In the har-
mony that they are today. Smelters need
the ore and the producers need the
money. Producers bave the ore TO sell
and ores are available today which could
not be considered commercial In past
years. Instead OF mining as an industry
retrograding as a great many would have
one believe. and which many believe for
tho reason that they measure mining
prosperity by stock market conditions IL
continually Is advancing and improving.
Legitimate mining is healthier than ever.
and physical conditions underground in
the territory tributary TO the salt Lake
smelters are ideal.
Mr. Cook believes that the day OF sal
walton for Phoebe Is al hand. and he is
not alone in this belief by any means.

over Twelve Million Tons of
Ore Are Developed Up to
Date.

Letters received from the Braden prop
erty in Chile state that work on the new
concentrator is being rushed, and that II
is expected that the first unit OF the
plant will be put in operation this month.
The other two units of the concentrator
should be placed in commission by early
fall-one in September and one in Novcm-
ber. so that before tho end OF the year
the property should be treating 5000 tons
per day. say Thompson. Towle & Co.
The present is apparently very i'm
portant time at Braden for not alone is
the starting up of the new concentrator
the only event al the property which is
being watched with interest, but AT the
mine. the encountertng of the main ore
pected almost any time, while at the No.
50 tunnel, which Is advancing in the ore
shoot, important developments are taking
place.
The developments in the No. 81 For
tuna tunnel have added materially TO the
ore reserves. According TO the estimate,
which was made in April. the reserves
were increased 5000. 900 tons. due prin
cipally to this tunnels advance in the
ore shoot. II is important TO note that
at the present time the No 81 tunnel
and that In all probability a further large
increase in tonnage will be made by this
development.
The No 4 Fortuna is located at a dis
tance OF $50 feet below the No. 81 tunnel.
Owing to the great vertical distance be-
tween these workings. once the ore shoot
Is entered on the No. 4. tonnage should
be developed very rapidly.
The ore reserves at Braden, according
10 the estimate made in April. amounted
to 12.00Q000 tons assaying 81 per cent
copper. OF the 100000 which were
added 1000 900 tons were actual and
100000 probable. Although no esti-
mate OF new tonnage has been made

received states that l,000.000 tons OF the
