With y maximum temperature OF
100 degrees at several points in the
state, North Dakota holds the heat
record in the United States for the pre-
sent year. Still, despite that fact, only
two deaths and three cases of insanity
have resulted from excessive heat.
North Dakota, generally credited
with having the coolest weather, estab-
fishes somewhat Of a reputation for
itself by the record fof this year. ac-
cording to the United States weather
statement, and it is not at all unusual.
Each year during the last ten years,
the records show temperatures Of 100

Iron Clothes With Their Feet.


writer in the Wide World Maya
zine says that the most curious sight
he saw att Cairo was men ironing
clothes with their feet |! The men
were employed ID the native tailoring
Establishments. Except for d long?
handle, the irons were shaped like the
:ordinary fat-iron.. only large a solid
block of wood rested on the top Of
the iron, and on this the men placed
one foot, guiding the iron ii the de-
sired direction By means of the
handle. For the sake Of convenience
ironing boards were raised only q few
inches from the ground. and however
:strange the method may seem to ls.
the work was done very well and very
.expedi tionsly.

Eugenics and parental care are two of the most important questions that will be discussed dur ing the meeting. infant hygiene, in- fant feeding and infant training are among the large questions that the government must deal with. They are not political questions. but on the contrary are questions of the foundation of future citizenship. The reports of this meeting will be wait cd with interest.

IMMENSE BODY
 LOW GRADE ORE
J. A. Murphy, Latouche Mining oper- ator, Intends to Finance Pass
 age Bay Claims.

J. A. Murphy, the Latouche min ing operator, left Valdez today for Latouche and will take the North western to Seattle on the return trip of the boat.
 MT. Murphy has low grade gold proposition located near the head of Passage canal which he will finance while outside. Engineers who visited the claims last summer report that an immense body of low grade ore which will average $2.74 a ton is to be found on the claims. It is ideally situated can he quarried and milled for $1 a ton. A large water power capable of furn: :shing all the power necessary is situated near the claims, which are only 4000 feet from tho beach, where wharf can be built to give a depth of 40 feet with 100 feet of piling.
 Mir. Murphy is confident that the high grade properties in the Valdez section will soon be followed by the large low grade mines and that the claims owned by himself in Passage bay will he one Of the first of the big low grade mines to be in opera tion.

Currency in Politics.

It is unfortunate, says an exchange, that currency legislation should have become the football of politics. The possibility of securing 8 really valu, able measure is thereby reduced and the probability of error is thereby in
 creased. By unyielding obstinacy O'Gorman and Hitchcock have sue ceeded in reducing the number of re- gional reserve banks from twelve to four. Outside of the bankers of the country, few have any clear idea of whether the reduction will help or hurt. By strict party vote the Re- publicans, assisted by two disgrunt- led Democrats in the Senate Finance committee, have succeeded in caus
 ing the president to experience a check There can be little doubt but that the contest is therefore to be conducted along strict party lines, and this is what the people of the country had hoped would not occur.

Farm Life More Desirable.

With the constantly increasing cost Of land, principally because of the stoppage of railroad building, small farms are in demand. remarks a writer. The big cattle ranches are being cut into small tracts to agri- culturists and are being settled and developed. Boys and girls who left the country because of the prosaic life oh the farm are returning. Bet ter schools. better roads, telephones, and water supplies for baths and in many cases the nearness to towns. is making farm life more attractive. Where farmers live closer together they will cooperate in securing amusements and in finding markets. This cooperation will make rural life more desirable and is doing it. Back to the farm no longer means a re- turn to g life where all is drudgery and isolation and on amusement.

Reached Scene of Cable Break To- day-lf Weather is Favorable
 Repair Soon be Made.

The cable repair ship Burnside is now at the scene of the break in the government cable from Valdez to Sit ka. A wireless was sent to the Valdez office last night from the ship to stand by this morn 'ng to rec i've any message from the ship, as they would start the work of grapling for the cable, after which new piece would be spliced in the cable and every thing would be o.

 A great deal depends upon weath- CT conditions in the North Pacific as to how long it will be before con- munication is restored. No work can be done in the way of p: ckjng up the broken ends or making the splice if the ship is tossed about by heavy seas.
 Lieut. Dougherty, of the local of fee, is hopeful that the repairs vii: be made some time today.
 Private messages are being sent from Valdez by way of Cordova and the Whitshed wireless station to Sit ka, where they are again sent over the government cable to Seattle No press was received by the Prospector today as the Dominion line is down and out

ALASKA'S FRIEND

w. Q. HurIbut, Who Visited Territory in 1911, Dies at PortIand-Fought
 Roosevelt Conservation.

w. D. Hurlbut, formerly of The Outlook staff. who made a visit to Alaska in 1911 at the suggestion of Theodore Roosevelt, then an associ- ate editor of the magazine, died re- gently in Portland, Ore. In speaking of MT. Hurlbut, the Seattle Post-In- lelligencer says:
 "Frail of body, he was man of gentle soul and noble character, hon. est and fair n his personal and pro- fessional dealings. He was a con vincing, fluent writer with ability to handle his subject matter with ad- miraDle accuracy.
 Tn 1911 Outlook sent MT. Hurlbut to Alaska. The purpose of his in vestigation was outlined in the in- structions forwarded hum, and this was to get the truth about conditions there, with particular reference to the Controller bay controversy Mr. Hurlbut went north in June and re- IAAASu HI oCPISAAOCA.

His conclusions did not justify the editorial position previously talk en by his magazine, and for some reason they were not published. MT. Hurlbut became convert to the party opposing the conservation policy then and now in force, and staunch advo- cate of development in the north. He was an honest convert. He saw the stagnant conditions prevailing and found the source of the trouble. Alaska has lost real friend, and the country clear, incisive, forcible and honest writer"

GRANBY COMPANY
 MAKES REPORT
Made $e0,0o0 in october-Midas Ore to be Shipped to Hidden
 Creek Shelter.

BOSTON, Nov. ,29.-Granby Con- solidated earned $9O,O0O net in Octo- Der. It's cost of production was close to ten cents a pound, which has been the average of late.
 Options on some of the properties under examination lately have been exercised. Chief of these was the Midas mine at Valdez, Alaska, the cost of which, including necessary equipment, will be $250,0OO.
 The Midas ore, thus far shown up, averages from five per cent to six per cent copper with $2 a ton in gold and silver. Development to date has disclosed about $1,000,000 in values, but the extent of the ore deposits has by no means been ascertained.
 The ores from the Midas, sulphide in character, will be utilized as much needed Aux in the operations of the Hidden Creek smelter, to which shipments will commence about the middle of 1914.
 The other option exercised covered the Snow Shoe tract adjoining the original Granby mine. For this $2O,- 900 was paid. To date about a half million tons of ore have been put in to sight with prospects for additions. This ore will be shipped to the Grand Eorks sme1ter
 Just south of the Canadian border in the state of Washington Granby has had several properties under op- tion for the past few months. One of these is the Lame Foot group, up- on which fair results have been had. Another property bids fair to dupli- cate the Granby itself.
 The mine management at Hidden Creek has advised the eastern off cials that the construction and de- velopment program has been fully lived up to, which indicates that the new smelter will blow in early in January. It will doubtless take sev- eral months to warm up"
 The policy Of the present Granby management is distinctly one of ex- pansiOn.
