MANHATTAN. June 20. ~ The
high-grade production Of Manhattan
mines bids fair to be eclipsed dur
ing the present season by the rich
stuff to be stopped out OF proven
ground BY Shea, Putnam and Felli-
her. leasers on the Union and
Stray Dog properties.
For a month past they have been
stopping high grade from the upper
levels OF their two leases and today
they are commencing the shipment
OF an SOO-ton milling Of their ore
To the War Eagle mill.
When the ore above the leo level
is stopped out. they will run out
their southern drift on the 1S6 and
go after the same shoot, which they
have already tapped on the Union
9 side OF the division line Of their
leases. These leasers are disciples
Of the belief of losing no time in
shafts. tunnels. crosseuts, raises and
the like before getting busy on their
ore. hence they will commence stop
ing as soon as a stope can be open
ed. They will continue their drift
over into the Stray Dog ground TO
the limits OF the shoot.
This shoot was opened over a
month ago by raising on what ap-
peared to be a narrow cross fissure
or stringer, crossing the old worked
out drift on the main contact dag
onally and running almost due north
and south. 1t soon opened into a
big ore body of an exceedingly high
grade During their Stopping they
have taken a grab sample from
every skip and sssayed it by days.
One day the samples returned s45l,
but as a rule they have run from
$50 to $50 a ton. The leasers an
ticipate that their milling will make
a net return Of $40 a ton. II 1t
only goes $50 there will be big
profit in the lease. yet they might
be agreeably disappointed by its go
ing $50.
This will be the largest milling
from the lower end of the camp, ex-
cepting the Big Four, for a year or
two. The milling Of the White
Caps at the upper end exceeds 1t in
tonnage.
There is small limit to the posi-
bilities of these leases, especially
since most of the dead work has
been done. Not only is the shaft
down to the gas and the drift fin
ished into the ore on the Union 3
side. but it is down to the 400, only
a great deal of the lower workings
are in water which will be pumped
out after the rich ore of the upper
workings is extracted
The leasers are equipped with one
OF the finest and fastest working
plants in the district, including a
compressor and Vaughn drills for
hurrying things along. They are
making use OF all their advantages
and among the most prominent is
the fact that they employ the best
miners obtainable In the camp,
Their pay roll contains the names
Of IS men. which is large number

SWANSON SHAFT
Is The DEEPEST
IN MANHATTAN
SYSTEMATIC OPERATIONS ARE
CARRIED OUT BY okDER or
S. II. BRADY


MANHATTAN, Sept. %. = The
Swanson shaft in the Manhattan
Earl has been sunk under the man
agement of S. IL. Brady from a
depth of $50 to about 800 feet and
now is the deepest shaft in that part
of the camp 1t is proceeding at a
rate of four feet a day. The shaft
is an incline supposed TO follow the
contact. but owing to the latter's
tendency to meander as well as its
| flatness, Superintendent b. |. Hoxsie
is holding the shaft on a straight
course in the hard lime on the foot
wall side. At point from 100 to
125 feet from the starting point he
will cut station and crosscut tc
the contact.
No ore has been struck in tbs
shaft as yet and none is expected
for some depth yet. When the tim'
comes the calculation OF Brady il
that the shoot in the Amalgamate6
as well as others in that vicinity viii
be cut ON their rake, either in th'
shaft on this contact ledge or b.

HARDWOOD TREES FOR KANSAS
ises to Make Great Change in
Western Part of State.

Wichita, June 22.-The superintend-
ent of the United States forest re-
serve south of Garden City has been
carrying on extensive experiments
this spring with the planting of hard
wood trees. Already 100000 hard
wood seedlings have been set out and
$4,000 more are in the transplant at
the nursery, and will be set out next
year, Besides 100000 coniger seed
lings are being started and will be
transplanted next year and later set
out in the reserve.
A year is saved in getting these
trees started by soaking the seeds in
warm water for an hour and rubbing
off the outer fleshy coating of the
seeds. The varieties planted included
the honey locust, wild locust, ash,
box elder, catalpa and Usage orange
The experiments have been success
full and it is believed that western
Kansas will produce hardwood trees
in the future.

MEN AND woMAN,s CLOTHES.


1t may be laid down as general
rule that the ordinary man never
knows when a woman's dress fits or
not-unless, of course, 1t is an extraor-
binary misfit His replies to inquiries
on that point are. as practically all
husbands will attest, based on what
he thinks the woman thinks OF 1t.
When a wife, for instance, comes into
the room wearing a new dress, with
smile on her face. and turns around
several times and ASKS him what he
thinks OF the fit, he replies without
hesitation that 1t is all right-that he
likes the pattern exceedingly and that
he doesn't think he ever saw her wear
anything more becoming, II, on the
contrary, she comes in with corrugated
brows and inquiries in distinctly dis
satisfied tone what he thinks OF the
dress, he instantly remarks that,
though 1t looks fairly nice, yet there
is still something about It that he
doesn't like, He can't say exactly
what 1t is that seems out Of keller,
but there is certainly something
wrong with that dress and 1t ought to
be altered at once. But 1t is only
just to the men to say that their igno-
rance of what constitutes the At Of a
dress is paralleled by the feminine in
ability to realize what goes to make
up a well-fitting suit for male per'
son. AS rule, a womans advice
with respect to a mans suit is the
most dangerous thing a man can take.

That men of wealth in increasing
numbers are deserving the ranks OF
''the idle rich" and devoting their
time, talents and a part OF their
money to useful public service, is one
of the encouraging fruits Of democracy
in this country. The charge has often
been made that very wealthy men do
not bear their just proportion Of the
public burdens, and possibly many OF
them do not Possibly many OF them
lack a sense of responsibility, During
the past quarter of a century. how
ever, there have been in American
public life. or in semi-public life, a
great number of men who feel that
riches, as well as noblesse, oblige
says the Boston Globe 1t would be a
superfluous task to enumerate them
the men in whom a social conscience
has been developed and who find the
performance Of public duties more at
tractive than polo or golf
