 About this time a friend came to live with us, and . noticed that after he had been with us week he would not drinl; his coffee any more 1 asked him the reason. He replied T have Eot had a headache since left Cf drinking coffee, some months ago. Jill fast week, when ] Deg,in again, here at your table. I don't zee how anyone can like coffee, any way, after drinking PostGmi
 T said nothing. but at once or dered a package of Postum. Thal was five months ago, and we have drank no coffee since, except on two occasions when we had company, and the result each time was that m husband could not sleep, but lay awake and tossed and talked half the night. We were convinced that cof- fee caused his suffering. so ne re turned to Postum. convinced that the coffee was an enemy, instead of a friend, and he is troubled no more by insomnia.

c. and A. Work


 Crosscutting in the Briggs is being continued by the c. and A. company and this work continues in the sp.en- did formation of rich ore that was re- ported last week It is this strike in the Briggs shaft to which many attribute the stock advance but this is only one incident that leads to the rise of the shares to more nearly their intrinsic values.
 The cutting through from the O. iver to the Hoatson is one oi the ready important developments of the district The plan for draingin5 tne mInes of both companies throuen the one pumping station by the C. and A with the Copper Queen bearing its pro rata of expense has been previous ly described in these columns and the present connection, established tJwaI A the close of the week now makes the completion of the project possible and brings it near at hand.
 In the Briggs shaft probably morS than any other except perhaps tLe Junction the showing of ieeched ores is most pronounced. It was a very vet shaft and the water problem Wa an expenslye one to solve. The wate4 and geological conditions to the nm ing company meant something more than expenditure of money. 1t fore casted the existence Of great ore lenzes and that forecast is now being borne out One weeks assays iron cross cut 97 of this shat showed 3l-e. 40. 22. 24, 27, fl. a most remarkable mineralization.

 Empty Title
FIGHTS WERE FIGHTS
lack Dempsey's title,

Jack Dempsey's title, What boxer among all the middle weights has "cinched' it? The peerless Dempsey-the Non, pareil At one time Dempsey was lightweight champion. and held the title, too. His fighting weight was but 133 pounds. When Dempsey was in full flight, when he was known from the Atlantic to the Pacific slope as the most dangerous, rapid ransy fighter in the middleweight division, the honor Of this championship lay between Pete Mccoy, the vicious Bos ton scrapper; La Blanche. "The Ma rine," and Dempsey. Gingerly this triangle of great fighters lowered about the coveted title until Demp- sey and Mccoy flew together and Dempsey whipped Mccoy in six rounds.
 4 Great Battle.
 Then it was Dempsey and -a Blanche. The marine" had been touted the country over as a world heater. He was the full middleweigh- limit-15S pounds, of powerful builG a rushing wEirlwind fighter and game 10 the core.
 Can the old sports remember the Dempsey-Ia Blanche battle on that cold March morning at daybreak?
 The ring was pitched in the Open at Larchmont, L. l The fighters anl party had been driven from place to place by the police.
 The men fought with skin-tiSa' gloves. The cool. calculating Demp- sey, with his piston punches. beat The Marine" 70 a standstill in r rounds
 Since then what middleweighte have held an honest-lnjun claim 70 this title? Bob Fitzsimmons took f from Dempsey, but he never touted the honor. Tommy Ryan. the Syra. cuse fighter. went through three rounds of a sham fight with Dempsey, and was given the decision. Five months later Dempsey was dead of consumption.
 Mccoy Held Title.
 Then there was Kid Mccoy.
 The kid jerked the middleweight honors from Ryan and was the real holder Of the 15-pound belt.
 Jack Root finally defeated Mccoy in a decision bout; first Root and then George Gardner tried to fit up to the vacant championship; but neither was ever recognized.
 Around Stanley Ketchel, the Butte. Mont, miner boy. gathered the fam ous honor. Ketchel and Papke by a series of fierce contests tossed Demp- seys wreath backward and forwarl until it rested with Ketchel Stanley Hetchel is dead and still the title bobs from one to another like a will-o-the wisp. A host of middleweights nov lay claim to it.

THE GOVERNORS PLAN

1t deals entirely with the financial
condition of the state government
and suggests two remedies: One
is for the legislature to increase
the state tax rate Is cents on the
500 valuation for the benefit of
the general fund, and the other is
to make the increase 10 cents on
the 500 for the general fund,
coupled with the creation of a tax
commission to readjust and
equalize the assessment of pro-
perty.
That there is need Of some
power in the state to equalize the
assessment Of property in the
different counties is plain to every
one who has given the matter con-
sideration. The county boards Of
equalization are supposed to
equalize assessments in their
counties. but 1t is seldom that any
change is made in the valuations
fixed by the assessors AS a result
property is not assessed for over
80 per cent of It's actual cash value.
That is the East in this couny and
has been for years.
But whether the special session
should devote the necessary time
to pass a tax commission bill is
another question. Such a measure
should have careful, conscientious
consideration before il is placed
on the statute books.
A raise Of 10 cent on the 500
is a big raise. Had the legisla-
trues Of the past ten years refused
TO create so many new offices with
fat salaries and been less extrava-
giant with the peoples money along
other lines. there would be no need
of a special session of the legisla.
ture to saddle more expense on
the taxpayers.
