THE ARCTIC MOUNTAIN OF IRON.

Sweden has been trying to sound with diamond drills the depths of the magnetic iron ore piled up in great hills near the town of Kiruna, Lap land. BOrings have been made to depth of 754 feet, the bottom speci- mems are rich in ore, and there is no indication at what depth the ore is likely to peter out" says the New York Sut in an editorial These are prac- tically small mountains of tha finest iron ore. There are two O. them, Kiru- navaara and LuOssavaara. and devel- opment work is as yet confined to the first. The bOrings at Kirunavaara in dicate 750,OOO 900 tons of ore on that mountain. and probably many millions more lie below the zone of present ex- plOration. The quantity in sight is more than three times as large as the estimated amount of ore in the famous mines at Gellivara, also in this Arctic iron region and about sixty miles away Not only is Kirunavara the greatest single depository of iron ore yet discovered in any part Of the world, but its large content of the metal is also very remarkable. The upper third of the mountain is nearly pure mag netic. and there are few indications of less than 70 per cent of metal as far as exploration has extended. Of the two arctic railroads in the world one Is hauling coal from the SpitZbergen mines, about two miles to the sea. and the freight of the other is iron from Gellivara and Kiruna to the Atlantic port of Narvik. Kiruna has shipped an average of 1,50O,000 tons a year for the last four years, and the industry is only just beginning. Ten years ago this wonderful spot was nothing but a dreary Arctic waste. A great source of wealth has come to light in the Arc tic Frequently the approaching eX- haustion of the iron supply is an nounced, but every decade great new sources of iron are found; no doubt other Kirunas yet to be discovered will extend the iron age of man for cen turies to come"

JACK GLASSCOCk
The Man With a "Draught."


 Some Of our once prominent per sons in a managerial way had mon ey in the bank; others got Jack Glasscock to work for them. NIT. GlaSscock, by reason of his consistent excellence in the field, and the ire quent brilliancies which marked his daily exhibitions, was considered the Money Card to the club owner, the block of bonds in the safety vault, the diamond ring on the pinkie fin ger, or, as you might say an asset.
 When Glasscock was programmed to disport himself, the turnstiles clicked, the fans flowed in, the seats filled up and the coffers too, and the managers heart was merry, The atrically described old Jack had a draught' He had, he had. He was a shortstopper by trade, but when you say he was a shortstOpper, you scarcely graZe the top covering of his possibilities. He was a magnet, a sign-post. a something to bring out emulation. Besides doing his work in a way that gained for him the reputation of the most wonderful shortstopper that ever covered an
  tory. Jack Glasscock had the ad- mirable faculty of developing talent in others. and the result was that when Jack was on a team, it wasn't long before there were other good men on the same team.
 Take the year 1883, for example. here was our friend upholding the honor and glory of the old Cleveland National League team. and leading everything that ever happened when it came to the shortstop's position For neighbors he had Bill Phillips at first base. Fred Dunlap at sec ond, and Jerry Denny at the third. :, These and Jack were considered the wisest four-card draw in all the baseball deck. and became known as the StonewaIl Infield, for reasons which will doubtless suggest them 1 selves to the breathless reader.
 When the Union Association came ! along for its brief flutter there was Jack Glasscock playing with his us ual marvel for the Cincinnati club. l The union looked pretty good at that time. you must know that the ! fellows who were promoting it stop

And that's the way the unions worked. Jack did what he could to prop up the Cincy team. and Briody and Mccormick of Cleve- land strung along with him Tn the unions, Glasscock's performances eX- celled even his earlier endeavors.

And when the union was a 1 thing of the past you may be sure Jack wasn't put to the task of hunt l ing job The St Louis Nationals ] grabbed him off before anyone else ! had chance. and as Dunlap and : Denny also sat in. there was a near reproduction of an earlier and famous | infield.

SOME COMPARISONS MADE

Dr r.. $. Godfrey. territorial health officer and ex officio registrar of vital statistics now has tabulated in his office the returns showing the deaths in Arizona for the first two quarters of 1911. The compilations are quite exhaustive, more so than can be re- produced in a newspaper except by infinite table work. but the following figures give the principal facts and form an intelligent basis of reference for the conclusions appended:

Troops From Cananea Had to be Called to Stop Rioting at
 Town of Naco.

NACO, Ariz.. Sept. 27.-It required a patrol of Mexican troops. who ar rived from Cananea this afternoon, to control a crowd of drunken Mex ican soldiers at Naco, Sonora today. The troops defied the civil author ities and ran amuck, firing in the air Probably a hundred and fifty shots were fired but no one was hit Soon after the troops arrived from Cananea order was restored and the men taken to the barracks. It is not likely that further trouble will occur.

He was great. national character, and every fan. in every city felt a sense of almost personal satisfaction so wisely and widely had Jack distrib- utcd his notable services.

Deaths By Ages.

In the second quarter, the number of "unstated age" is large owing to the fact that several of them were participants in the Mexican war. who died after coming into Arizona, wound ed. and whose ages were not learned.
 Comparison.
 1910. 1911. First quarter .............S1I S"o Second quarter ...........SS5 H7V Of the increased number of deaths in the first quarter of this year. more than half were among the Mexican population Another big increase in the same quarter was of tuberculosis acquired elsewhere than in Arizona, the figures for last year being 16S and for this year 1S3. There was also an increase of tuberculosis ac- quired in Arizona, the figures being 45 for the first quarter of last year and 62 for the same period this year. Maricopa county had 14 this year. as against II the previous year. which, however, is no more than the pro- portionate increase in population. Yavapai county had , this year and none last year during the same pc riOd During the same period the deaths of tuberculosis among the In dians increased in the territory from to 12.
 In the first quarter of 1911, 14 whites, 34 MeXicans, 13 Indians and 1 other, died of tuberculosis acquired in Arizona. while in 1910 the figures were 14 whites. 21 MeXicans. In dlans and 1 other, so it is seen that all the increase in deaths of tuber- culosis acquired in Arizona was among the Mexicans and Indians. That fact emphasizes the good effect of sanita- ton and proper living. The mortality increased among the classes poorly provided for, while it remained the same among the whites, which Is also a more numerous population than it was a year ago.

10 Be Presented in Muskosee wednes-
day And Thursday Evenings
February 8 And 9.

The management of the Hinton
Theatre, Muskogee. Okla. have ar
ranged with Klav & Erlanger for the
presentation of Lew wallace's power
fuI religio-historic spectacle, @Ben
Hur," Wednesday and Thursday even
ings and Thursday matinee, February
5 and 9.
Ben Hur," with its lustrous "Star
of Bethlehem" its camels, Arabian
steeds, Oriental trappery and mimic
splendor Of the gorgeous east, is be-
yond doubt the most elaborate spec
Itacle ever staged in the history of the
world. It's series Of scenes present to
the eye feast of multifarious beauty
and variety all set to symphonic ac-
compartment of graceful music. The
lexciting episodes, such as the galley
scene with its horde of chained slaves,
the sea fight, the rescue In mid-sea,
the thrilling race with its quadruple
teams OF galloping horses, combined
with the picturesque scenes represent.
Ing the appearance of the Star to the
Wise Men In the Desert, the moonlit
lake in the Orchard of Palms, where
Ben Hur and Iras make love while
drifting in the barge of the fair
Egyptian, the palm-waving worship
pers on the Mount of olives, simply
captlyate the great audiences that are
nightly in attendance wherever ii Is
being enacted.
AS now arranged and staged by
klaw & Erlanger, the public sees
great spectacle which appeals now
merely on the strength of its drama
tic values, but as a colossal and pic
turesque pageant. And in the chariot
race, the scene which, coupled with
the popularity of General Wallace's
book, gave the play its enormous
vogue, eight horses, aided by the most
intricate mechanisms, produce the
illusion Of the struggle for
supremacy in the arena of the Circus
Of Antoach. Edgar SEllman Kelley's
brilliant musical score, which so
heightens the dignity and solemnity
Of the Biblical narrative, and was one
OF the most potent factors in its sue
cess, is made a dominant feature of
the present production, being inter-
preted by special orchestra and
chorus carried by the company for that
purpose.
Seats for Ben Hur" will be placed

Cheer Up, Young Man.

Because Hugh l.. Dickson, of San

Ing admitted to practice before the
United States Supreme Court, for
undoubtedly many rogues have that
distinction.
hut Dickson's case Is worth think
ing about, lie is general counsel for
the brotherhood Of Locomotive Fire
men and Enyinemen. Before he be-
came a lawyer he was locomotive
fireman. In an accident he lost both

studied law. 1t sometimes seems a>
though lawyers with two hands have
a hard time finding the right page in
