VALUES DON'T INCREASE
 WITH DEPTH OF VEIN

There is long standing belief among many miners and prospeetors that mineral-bearing veins grow richer as depth Is attained, says the Mining World. This belief with them is SO firmly fixed that it is consid- cred a general law of vein depos- it's. The theory has been proven erroneous, however Tn fact, quite the opposite Is known to be the rule rather than the exception. This st. tement must not be construed as applying uniformly to every foot Of a vein from the surface down, as near the sifrface where atmospheric as encies have acted, and down to the bottom of the zone of secondary enrichment, the vein has not it's normal composition. In the weath- cred portion at and near the surface there may be enrichment in free gold if the original vein carried gold; at tie same time if the vein contained copper or other minerals, which are converted into valuable compounds by atmospheric action, these become leached cut and descend, becoming r, deposited lower down in the zone of secondary enrichment Thus, in Lhc case of goId-bearing veins, the rscmest portion Is at the surface, and with veins carrying copper minesal7. fhe richest portion Is in the zone Of st condary eurichmsnt Below this point experience has shown that, as a rule, values steadily decrease as depth is gained.
 This delusIon of increasel values with depth Is still made unfair use of by interruptions and mi-informe1 promotes s as an inducsmeHt for in vestment In doubtful prope. tie5. In- ,estors should bear in mind that low CT values may In general be expect ed as depth Is gained, also at the same time working and pumping expenses increase. It Is never safe to invest in mining property rerely on the assumption that val
 ues will increase indefinitely with depth. The safest plan is to be guided in making mining savest-
 nents by the report Of a reputable
 mining engineer.

TELEPHONE SERVICE Is
 NoTICEaBIS IMPROVED

The Alaska General Electric com pany has completed the installation of a new switchboard ot the most modern kind. Under the operation og the new board the central office IS entirely cut out when two patrons are using the line, which renders conversation absolutely private.
 The new switchboard is more com pact and has labor saving facilities for handling business promptly. Patrons win also notice the i'm pavement Of djStinctuess with whic conversation is carried on, as com pared with the displaced board II win require a few days for the op- orators to familjarize themselves with the changed conditions before perfect operation can be expected, after which Skagway will have a tel cphuue service surpassed by none.

VICTOR HUG0'S ACACIA TREE
Planted in Childhood by Author, It
Has Just Been Saved From De-
struction In Paris.

An acacia tree, supposed to have
been planted by Victor Hugo in his
childhood has just been saved from de-
struction in Paris. The tree stands In
the Boulevard Raspail, and it's tall.
curved trunk has long been familiar
to the inhabitants of that quarter. A
short time ago a certain M. Charuin
bought the plot upon which it grew for
the purpose of erecting mansion.
The whole quarter was disturbed at
the news that a tree of such traditions
was about to disappear.
When, however, NJ. Chaurin heard
that his new mansion was likely to de-
molish the object of veneration
with which he sympathized, he altered
his architectural plans spontaneously
and built a semi-circular frontage to
his house, just inclosing the acacia
within the ratings. III
The association of it with Victor
Hugo is disputed by authorities on

gratlfied that tradition retains such
vigorous life and that the marking

TRADE in WOODEN SHOES
Scarcity Of Willow Wood Has Stead.
led Market, Which Was unsettled
BY ovsrproduotion.

Last year was unfavorable to the
wooden shoe manufacturers in Hol
land owing to the keen competition
Of the Belgians and a decided over.
production here. This years pros.
poets are somewhat brighter.
The scarcity Of willow wood, from
which those shoes were formerly
made, has caused the market to
steady up a little. Poplar and some
Russian woods are also being used
more extensively than heretofore.
The cost of the wod from which
the shoes are made is about IS per
cubic meter, out Of which 100 pairs Of
ordinary size can be made. The
wholesale price of these shoes Is IL
cents. One workman is able to make
IL to Is pairs in day, from which II
can be inferred hove narrow is the
margin of profit in the industry.
Relatively few wooden shoes are
produced by machinery for export
but with this exception all the wood
en- shoes are made by hand in Hol
land. About twenty different tools
are required in the operation. A yea1
or so ago several German capitalists
started factories in this country tt

failed. Machine-made shoes, it /,
said, are not well finished, and some
handwork is always necessary t.
make them satisfactory.

WEALTH OF THE NATIONS
United States Does Not Make Tre'
mendousIy Good Showing in
Worlds Financial Column.

For all it's vaunted wealth the Unit
ed States, in so far as per capita ratio
goes, does not make such a tremen-
dously good showing in the worlds
financial column. The wealth in the
United States in 1910 was estimated
at $125,ooO, 100000, by far the greatest
amount credited in bulk to any one
country. Yet the per capita wealth
was only $1,359. Great Britain in 1909
was worth $SS .725, 600, 900, each person,
according to the census. thus getting
1892. France, with $S3 900. 900 in
1910l lad per capita wealth OF
$207O: Germany had $63 100000, 900,
with a per capita of $1,000. Russia's
total wealth was $60.000,O00, ,000,. but
it's enormous population dragged the
per capita down to $400. while Swift
zerland, with total wealth of only
So, ,03O. 100000, has per capita rating
of 1856. The per capita division IN
Sweden amounts to $402 out of a total
of $2.197 100000. Switzerland. in the
last few years, made 20 per cent.
gain in national wealth. The average
per capita wealth in the 25 cantons
ranges from $1,SS5 in Geneva to $279
in Tessin. Switzerland thus stands
very high. The population in 1921
was 1.SS5,229, so that in 80 years
time it has not doubled. France, It
will be noted, stands at the head OF
the nations with a per capita wealth
of $2.O7O. That the United States
with it's enormous tCtal, does not rank
higher is because ct the rapidly in
creasing population. France, on the
contrary, has reported diminishing
or at the most a very slowly increas
ing population, so that the money ad
vance has become greater than th'
birth rate.
