represents a gain of 81 per cent. in

value per cubic yard was 64.35 cents,
as compared with 6G.lS cents last
season, showing a Slight decrease, ow-
ing to the fact tina, No. > dredge was
digging largely in worked ground and
tailingS, which decreased the average
grade of material handled by this
dredge, as compared with the season
before.
The cost Increased from BLOC cents
per cubic yard for 1910, average, to
35 80 cents for 1911. A number Of
different factors entered into this in
crease. The May operation was dis
proportionately expensive on account
of the necessity for thawing some of
the ground in April, when the weather
was still cold; the repair costs in
creased somewhat, due to the heavy
bedrock encountered by some of the
dredges, and the power costs also were
higher from purchasing power locally
for the early spring and late fall re-
quirements. The principal increase in
cost was in the thawing operation, due
to the greater percentage of frozen
ground met within this seasons opera
ton which had to be thawed by steam.
the ratio of frozen ground TO cubic
yards dredged in 1911 showing an in
crease of 1888 per cent. over 1910. The
cost per cubic yard was higher on ac-
count of this increase. although the
thawing cost per square yard of bed
rock was lower than in 1910 by about
10 per cent. In the dredging cost is
included all thawing charges. pre-
Jiminary stripping operations, gross
gold tax, selling charges and deprecia
ZION.
The extremely dry season affected
the dredging operation, causing a
scarcity Of water for hota,i n. The
length of the operating season was
also reduced on this account by ap-
proximately three weeks.

YUKON GOLD co.
ANNUAL REPORT

The report of o. B. Perry, consult
ing engineer and general manager of
the Yukon Gold Company, made to
President S. r. Guggenheim and by
him submitted to the board of directors
at its meeting in New York February
% last, contained much interesting in
formation regarding the operations Of
the company in the Klondike.
The dredging equipment was In
creased during 1911 by the addition of
two seven-cubic-fo dredges, leased
from the Guggenheim Exploration
Company, which makes a total of nine
dredgeS in all on the company's
property. The two new dredges rep
resent the latest improvements in
dredge construction, and differ from the
ones previously installed in that the
hull is built of steel instead Of wood.
The steel hulls have decided advantages
in the way of strength and rigiGity,
and are 50 designed that the dredges
can be taken down and moved without
any loss of material. The first of the
two new dredges was finished and
started operation on September % on
claim No. + above discovery on Bonanza:
the second dreage. No. 9, was com
pIeted and started operation on October
:. on claim No. :, Eldorado. The
total weight involved in the construc-
ton was $40 tons and over $1,000
rivets were driven in the construction
of each dredge.
The thawing plants were increased
by the addition II tu.r new boilers of
standard type. with their steam lines
and accessory equipment.
The dredge operation for 1911 was
begun approximately three weeks
earlier than in 1910. The dredging
season for seven dredges averaged

winter October %. The early start in
May was made possible by the com
petion OF the steam driven plant of
the Northern Light, Power and Coal
Company, which enabled the company
TO purchase power before its own hydro
electric plant was capable of being
operated. The dredges handled 4,l5I,-

TAKES SLAP
AT WILSON
Student Body Not Interested in
Hearing Dudley Malone
Sing His Praises.

PRINCETON, Feb. 1e.--An inter-
esting feature of the meeting of
the woodrow Wilson Club, of Prince
ton. held last night in Murray Hall, and
addressed by Dudley Malone. assistant
counsel of New York city, was that out
of the 100 OF more students of Prince
ton only twenty-four were present.
Mr. Malone's subject was Woodrow
Wilson" The address was we'll adver-
tised among the students and the lack
of interest manifested by the stuc mt
body came as distinct shock to Mr..
Malone. The speaker did not conceal
his surprise and displeasure at this
want of appreciation of their former
president, the Governor of the State
and seeker after the presidency of the
United States. and remarked that things
were different at Harvard, where 1000
students heard him talk.
To the mind of Mr.. Malone the small
was quite inexplainable
An account of the meeting and its pur-
pose was announced several days prior
to the date in the Daily Princetonian,
the college paper. and this same paper
for some unknown reason failed to
make any reference to the meeting last
night In its Issue today.

BED, TRIES
TO END LIFE
Mrs. Mary Southron Reaches
Fixture with Broom, but
Is Rescued.

Melancholy because she was unable
to leave her bed owing to paralysis,
Mrs. Mary Southron, 50 years old, of
697 South Twentieth street. attempted
suicide by inhaling illuminating gas
at her home today Her condition,
which did not permit her leaving bed,
caused much agony. and today finding
a broom near the bed she held It at
her arms length and pushed open the
valve on the gas jet. She then care
fully covered herself and awaited
death.
The odor of gas permeating through
the house was traced to her apartment
by Mrs. Catherine O1r, who lives on
the floor above Not being acquainted
with Mrs. Southron she notified Mrs.
G. Engel, the landlady who lives two
doors away Together the women went
to the rear door of the Southron home.
This was found locked. The front door
was open, but the odor Of the gas was
so strong that the women did not ven
ture into the rooms. The Fourth pre-
cinct, which was notified, hurried pa
trolnen to the house, and the uncon-
scious form of the woman was taken to
the City Hospital. The police found
II difficult to remove the woman from
the house because of the gas fumes in
the small and unventilated bedroom
AT the City Hospital the woman was
revived but she refused to make any
statement. She was found to be but
little affected from the gas poisoning.
On Thanksgiving Day. according to
neighbors, Mrs. Southron with her son,
was carrying large block of wood
into the cellar. She stumbled on a
step and had to be carried to her bed.
Since then she has been confined to
her room suffering from paralysis
John Southron. the husband of the
invalid. declared that when he left
home today his wife bade him goodby.
She seemed to be in no worse condition
than when she was confined to her
room. and did not even give anyone q
reason to suspect her thoughts OF
suicide.

Two Dealers in Prince
Street.

Inspectors Samuel Sharwell and Ber-
nard Cahill, of the food ind drug de-
partment Of the Board of Health. today
invaded three places in Prince street
and confiscated ten crates sor 300 dozen
of eggs The inspectors made short
work of the eggs by tossing the eggs
into barrels and pounding them into
smithereens with brooms. Policeman
George Kromelbein, etailed in the
Prince street section, watched the pro-
ceedings.
For the second time the inspectors
visited the pastry bakery of Meyer
Kaiserman, 100 Prince street. The
baker left half crate Of good eggs in
a visable spot, but the inspectors were
not to be misled, and on searching
found two and half crates in the
koeading trough What happened can
easily be imagined. The little oval
shaped white and brown -relled things
were turned into fluid in jiffy.
The owner didn't like the smash and
crash, but had the satisfaction of find
ing that Max Yawnik, an egg dealer in
The cellar of 81 Prince str ct, who sold
him the eggs, suffered ike fate.
The inspectors found six crates in
Yawniks place and while he was a
witness turned them into an omelette-
mixture. The third raid was on the
stand Of Mrs. Anna Mickler on the curb
in front of 9S Prince street. Her loss
was one crate and half. After the
expedition the inspe. .ors visited a
pharmacy in the neighborhood and
scented their clothes with perfume.
