CRITICS POKE FUN
At MANUEL'S CHARMER
BY The United Press.

By The United Press.
NEW YORK, Sept 2s.-All the
critics poked fun at Gaby Des Lys
today. Most of them said the art
about which she has had so much to
say is very much among the missing
and some we're indecent enough to as
sert that she isn't so all-fred pretty
either. So II was natural that the
public's verdict is that little Gaby is
getting four times the presidents sal
airy (for a while) because Manuel of
Portugal's infatuation for her cost him
his Job.
Nevertheless Gabys debut here was
good deal of a theatrical event,
some people paying as high as S25
to get a glimpse Of the lissome young
woman who made history She dane
ed and sang but principally wore
jewels-about a peck She also wore
pretty clothes. Gotham saw Gaby
however, an dthe gems that Manuel
gave her and that's all II wanted.

S4OO GOLD IN
TEN TONS Of
HIGH GRADE

James Humes of the Gold Basin
Mining company came in from Car
roll Friday with ten tons of high
grade ore for shipment to Salt
Lake that assays $42O in gold and
20 ounces in silver Another lot OF
the same amount awaits the team,
which will make a minimum car
load. There is twice this amount
of ore of the milling grade on
the dump at camp, and work was
only commenced the last week in
September.
In speaking of Gold Basin min
ing district Mr.. Humes said:
While we have not opened up
sufficient ground to determine the
width and length of the ore bodies,
| am satisfied as to their perman
ency and depth The ore we are
taking out lies under quartz-por-
phyry dykes. igneous intrusions
which make for depth wherever
found.
Surface paintings made by myself
and others in the employ of the
Gold Basin Gold Mining company
and by other prospectors, indicate
the gold bearing district is mile
wide east and west and some
two miles in extent north and south
The area is all staked and location
work is in progress. No matter
where we pan. in the gulches or
on the hills, we almost invariably
find gold. "-Reveille.

SETTLERS NOT TO
PAY FOR SURVEY

only surveys under the sapz-
of the surveyor general can, un-
der the law, be accepted as a basis
for passing title. In consequence,
under the procedure provided for
when patent is sought to unsurveyal
lands, the settler on land within a
national forest has had to pl- f,r
a second survey. This has been
felt to be especially hard because
it has subjected settlers on national
forests to an expense which set
tiers on surveyed public lands do
not have to bear. Since it mere
ly duplicated the work of the first
survey, there seemed no reason why
this first survey might not answer
both for listing the land and for
patenting it.
The survey for listing, made by
forest officers, has always been
without expense to the prospective
homesteader. Under the new ar
rangement the field expenses G.
survey will continue to be paid by
the department of agriculture, so
that the applicant will merely be
called on to meet the cost of the
checking up and plating the sur
veys by the surveyor general. This
will remove one of the greatest OBJ
jections to the working of forer
homestead law The officials of
both the department of agriculture
and the department of interior are
pleased that the way has been
found, through cooperation in the
surveys, to simplify the procedurr
cut out duplication of work. an T
lesson the cost of settling upon
agricultural lands within national
forests
