Compound Interest
Has Earned More Than Speculation.

If you don't believe that compound interest has earned more money than speculation call and inquire or write to this bank, where money at interest is better than high grade stocks or bonds. It earns as much as safe se- curities, and the value of the principal never fuctuates; your money is al- ways worth 100 cents on the dollar, and your funds are always available.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE COURSE.
Requests for This Practical Depart
 ment in kiIIingly High.

To members of the town school com mittee have come requests that a dO- mestic science course be added to the curriculum of the high school, This has been done in many high schools in Connecticut and has come to be re- garded as one of the most practical innovations made in recent years In high school work. A domestic science course was added to the courses in the Putnam High school last year, and the results obtained are said to have been very satisfactory
 Bids for School Transportation.
 John A. Paine. secretary of the town school committee, has given notice that those who desire to secure contracts for transportation of school children for the coming year must file competi- tive bids with the town school com mittee not later than Aug. 3.

 Evening Town Meetings Desired.
 It was being said about town Fri day that the selectmen may be peti- toned to place a clause in the warning for the annual town meeting in Octo- Der asking that town meetings be held l in the evening instead of in the after | noon as has been the rule in KiIlinglv l for many years. The principal argu- ments in favor of the change are that mill operatives, clerks and others en- 1 gagged in occupations of a confning nature find it difficult and sometimes l impossible to get out and attend af- l ternoon meetings If the town gather | ings were held in the evening they would find opportunity to be present | Playground Open on School Street.
 A number of children gathered Fri day at the grounds about the graded school on School street to enjoy the apparatus that has been placed there for their entertainment and amuse ment during the vacation period Not many were out, but it is expected that the number will increase rapidly as the
 days go by. The playgrounds idea has not taken thorough hold of the chill
 dren as yet.

Foqs BewiIder Birds.

y 1t is curious thing that, though
human beings are utterly bewildered
in a dense fog, most animals find their
way through it without much diff
Guilty. A horse Will trot along in its
right direction as though the air were
perfectly clear, and not only that, but
will take the right turning at the right
moment if 1t is at all accustomed to
the road. A human being would take
any turning but'the right one. Birds,
on the other hand, are utterly bewil-
dered by fogs. Pigeons, for instance,
will remain motionless all day long,
half asleep, huddled up in their pigeon
houses. Chickens and poultry of all
kinds won't stir all the time a heavy
fog is about. Birds of all kinds, as a
matter Of fact, seem helpless during
foggy weather.-Pearson's.

GOLDEN RULE
STARTS PIPING
Have Good Head of Water
This Season.

The Golden Rule placer mine
started piping this week, hav-
ing got the ditch open and the
snow out of the pit. They had
a bad break in the ditch which
delayed them for several days,
but it is now repaired.
Last year the owners opened
a new pit, which is in the old
channel, and is about 300 yards
north of the old workings, and
it is in this pit that the work
will be done this year. Wher-
ever the old channel can be work
ed on this ground, good pay dirt
is found, and it is expected that
a good cleanup will Be made
this season.

The First Railway Gauges

An interesting story was told Ivy one
of George Stephenson's biographers re-
lating how the great engineer came to
adopt the four foot eight and half
inch gauge for his railways. Some
time previous to the building, Of his
Newcastle and Carlisle railway Ste
phenson had an opportunity of inspect
ing some portion Of an old Roman wall,
through which the chariots used to
be driven. Deep ruts made tby the
chariot wheels were still visible, and
on measuring these he found their
distance apart to be as near ds possible
four feet eight and a half inches. Ste
phenson thereupon came to the conclu-
sion that III world power like the
Romans had made such use of the
measure for its chariots he Gould not
be wrong in adopting those measure
ments as n rule for his railway.

Snow GarIands.

Curious ropes Of snow that form
on window ledges, tree branches, ETC.,
at temperature near freezing point
have been brought to notice by DR..
Karl Kassner as "snow garlands."
One of these ropes photographed on
the building Of the Meteorological in
stitute in Berlin was four inches In
thickness and was suspended by the
two ends, the distance between the
points of support being three and
quarters feet and the vertical
sag about one and one-half inches.
The snow on the little projection of
the wall, it is suppdsed, was Warmed
by the heat of the Building, when the
middle slipped down and, being thus
removed from the source OF heat
froze again.

FIND LOST BODY
IN SALMON RIVER
Fuckers Remains are at Last
Recovered.

The remains of E. G. Rucker
who was killed by his partner
last winter, and whose body was
placed in the Salmon river, have
been recovered and give a burial.
About two weeks ago as a
party Of bear hunters, composed
of Rich Danforth, Jim Lougee
Mitt Haynie were going up the
river, pulling a boat, they dis
covered the remains of a man,
with rope tied around his waist.
A hasty examination was made
and it was discovered that the
man had been shot through the
left arm, the bullet entering his
side, and lodging in the body.
The remains were in a good st9te
of preservation with the excep-
tion of,the face.
1t was at once recalled that last
winter Samuel M. Pruitt went to
Grangeville and gave himself up
to the authorities, and told of
shooting his partner, and plac-
ing his body in the river. Pruitt
claimed to have tied a rope
around the body, and anchord it
to'a rock. He also. told that he
shot Rucker through the left
; arm and body.
AT that time, while Pruitt was
still held in jail, the sheriff sent
, a party to make an,investigatior
and see if the body could be re
covered. The. party that ven
to the scene of the trouble coul(
3 find no trace of the body, anc
5 there was no sign of any con
! flict, and on this report Pruit
4 was turned loose, and his stor,
0 of self defense was consideret
: the truth.
I The place sEhere the body wa
c found is about so miles down tn
d river from where it was put in
: and it is supposed that the roc
it to:which the body was tied, wa
NOT large enough to hold, an
that is has been moving dow
i the river, and at last lodged i
', some boulders where it wa
ar found.

CONCENTRATES.

From the Mining and Scientific Press.
Side latches on ore-cars are apt
to prove Objectionable in under
ground work, as they are apt to
catch on the timbers in narrow
workings.
Work on a mining claim used
in application for patent must
have been performed by the ap-
plicant or his grantor. Work ex-
isting on claims when located
cannot be entered except by
fraud, but work done by the To-
Gator may be counted toward
patent by one who buys from
the locator, if it be otherwise ap-
plicable.
Ore should net be roasted be-
fore concentration, as it is too ex-
pensive. Roasting will, ordinarily
cost from 75c up per ton, depend
ing on. the method employed,
while concentrating can ordi-
narily be done for little more
than half that sum-. In addition
better results can ordinarily be
obtained, on raw ore than on
roasted material.
Knocking in the cylinder of a
straight line air compressor is
, often caused by the reversal of
the connecting-rod function in
the middle of the stroke. If the
thrust Of the cross-head is down.
ward at the beginning of the
stroke it. will be upward at the
, end, and conversely. To prevent
; knocking, the bearings and con-
nections should be kept set up as
snug as possible, and vertical
play between the cross-head and
r the slides should be especially
guarded against.

Thumb Prints

In the Argentine Republic the identi-
fcation cards of policemen, coachmen,
cab drivers, COMMISSIONERS and serv-
ants have since hS96 borne their finger
prints. Upon all passports and bank
receipts for deposits the imprint of the
thumb must be made at the time of de-
livery. In Roumania since 1908 the
thumb print has been substituted for
the cross made instead of signature by
persons who cannot write. In the Phil
ippine Islands those who cannot write
are not obliged to be identified by wit
nesses at savings banks, but have to
make their mark with their thumb.
The same system has been used in
the banks of Bengal for fifty years. In
France to put an end to the fraud of
enlistment, desertion and re-enlistment
for the bounty paid in the Foreign Le-
gion, every mans finger prints are tax
en- and kept on file.

the work was very slow, as they

New Kind of Withdrawal.

Withdrawal of public lands for
use rather than from use is the
latest piece of practical conser-
vation. The president, by eX-
ecutive order, under the with
drawal law has Withdrawn from
entry many tracts of unappro-
priated public lands which con-
tain springs or small streams.
These watering places control the
public range over large areas in
Utah and Wyoming and the with
drawal Of these lands will in no
wise interfere with the use of
the springs Or streams but will
in fact insure the possibility Of
public use. Control of watering
places by strong private interests
and the resultant monopolizatior
Of grazingson the public domain
are believed to be prejudical tt
public interest, and the presi
dent regards the setting aside O.
these watering places for public
use as serving a distinct anC
beneficial public purpose, in har
mony not only with the letter bu
the spirit of the act Of 1910.

Last Chance Starts Mill
This Week.
WILL RUN BY WATER POWER
Have Plenty of Ore in Sight
for a Long Run.

The mill on the Last Chance
mine commenced to drop stamps
this week, and aside from some
minor changes the mill will be in
continuous operation this season.
The mill is a triple discharge
mortar of the self-contained
pattern, two stamps, the stamps
weighing 1000 pounds each. The
mill is also equipped with six
foot Frue vanner, and all machi-
merry is driven by water power.
The mill is located at t he mouth
of the main tunnel, which is on
what is known as the north vein.
This tunnel has been driven 200
ft. on the vein, all in pay ore.
At about 100 ft. from the portal
a raise has been made, which
will not only be used for block
ing out of ore, but as a chute for
ore from another vein to the
south. The first ore to be put
through the mill will be the ore
taken from the tunnel in the
course Of development work.
There is enough of this ore to
run several days, and the mill
will be all adjusted by the time
this is put through.
-. On the south vein is where
most of the ore has been blocked
out. On this vein there is a
tunnel in $50 it., about 26O it.
being driven on the vein, which
shows 80 inches of pay ore that
will plate about $50 to the ton.
About 100 fit. from the face OF
the tunnel raise has been put
.up to the surface and a stope
started, so there will be no wait
ing on ore. The ore from this
vein is hauled a short distance
and dumped into the raise of the
main working tunnel, from which
it is trammed to the mill. This
tunnel is nearly 100 ft. above the
mill level. 1
It is the intention, as soon as
the mill is running smoothly anC
plenty of ore is broken to pusf
the main tunnel in to where
cross-cut can. be made to the
south vein, which is only abou
,125 ft. from the main vein. Thi
would not only give a NOR
economical way of working, bu
would give at least 100 ft. NOR
back.
The Last Chance group o
claims is owned by James P
Larsen, of Elk Cityreand tn
Wilson Bros, of Spokane. Mr.
Larsen is one. of the, origina
locators of the group, sand is a
present in charge of the opera
ton of the mine and mill.
1t is these kind of mines an
plants that will make any dis
trict, for it is well-known tina
an individual can operate muc
cheaper thanAa a company, an
when they get a good spropert
the profits are very large. AS
general rule there are not
many men on the pay roll, bu
the men are better paid.
