left Sunday. morning for the mining dis
trIct south from Illipall where Mr., Fergu-
son owns some claims adjoining the prop
erty OF the Ely National company and

this summer. This Is the property on
which the discovery of platinum has been
reported and which Is expected TO prove
an important producer OF that metal. The
reported find has been taken cognizance
OF by the United States geological survey,
the officials Of which sent for samples OF
the rock some time ago. Further pros
pecting on the company ground Is now
awaiting the results Of the government
examination and the report OF tine sam

pany Will resume development at once.
The work that has been done on the

FUNERAL CAR ON
| THE ELECTRIC LINE
Is an Innovation Which May Be
Inaugrated in North Yakima
the Coming Summer

One of the innovations which Yaki-
ma may see the coming summer Is a
funeral car on the electric line. Such
cars are in use in many cities of the
country and the conditions here
make the necessity apparent to all
who have to do with funerals, includ-
ing undertakers, clergymen, lodge men
and others. No definite plans have as
vet been made for such a car for this
city. but the subject has been dis
cussed and apparently meets with APP
prevail One of the claims in Its ia
vor is it's economy as compared with
the present system. Such cars as are
in use in other cities contain a place
for the casket, for the mourners, pail
bearers and fifty or sixty friends.
other cars may be used If the number
who attend the body to the cemetery
is larger. In winter time the car may
be used as a chapel for the services.
Long Ride to Cemetery r
The cemetery here Is two and a
half miles from the center Of the city,
and often a portion of the road is in
very bad condition. The horse hire
alone of an average funeral runs be-
yond the price that would be charged
for funeral car, while in G. A. r.
funerals, lodge funerals and many
others the price frequently runs to
several times the cost Of the car hire,
and at the same time the winter ride
prevents many from paying their last
tribute to some departed friend.
AS stated some time ago in the
uaraId an offer of right of way has
been made to the street railway COM
pany' If it will extend its line from
Young's corner to the cemetery and
run cars thereon for the benefit of
those who, in summer in particular, go
to the burying ground. There Is
possibility that the extension and the
funeral car will be obtained the COM
ing summer.

1t is this line of efficient activity
that has characterized the career of

him the dominant figure he is in the
nation today. He may never be

doubtless he is honest in his desire
to be free from the responsibility,
but he is nevertheless the exponent of
the cleanst cut Amricanism that the
nation has yet known.
