its greatest support is gained from the great num-

Vista during the week.
There are now seven men at
work on the Guadaloupe Consoh-
dated mines and the Mizer group
at Jasper, and it is expected to
make shipment of high-grade ore
soon to the Ohio smelter at Salids
The lessees have incorporated a
company for the development of
these mines, all of which have we'll
defined veins of ore. The incor-
porators are young men and will
sell stock in order to raise money
to push the work as fast as posi-
BILE.
A drift is being driven from the
Mizer tunnel to the Guadaloupe:
also cross-cut tunnel which will
intercept the Guadalupe vein at
depth of 300 feet. These workings
are all above the water level and
will not require any pumps.
The Perry and the Guadalupe
veins are known to be rich and can
be tapped at great depth by tun-
nels. When these veins are reached

/ BEAUTIFUL new STORE.
Fine Place of ]. 6. Evans Attracts
Much Attention.

The fine new store of Mr.. ]. G..
Evans, in the Barnett Building. on
Poplar street, has attracted much
attention recently, in view of the
fact that the interior has been COM
pletely changed. In order that he
might have private work and optical
rooms, Mr.. Evans had partition
placed in the rear OF the store,
and the portion in the rear Of it di-
vided into two separate rooms. one.
well-lghted. being used for a re-
pair department, while the other,
which has been carefully darkened,
IS to be used for his optical depart
ment.
It is the front room, however,
which attracts the most attention,
for here will be found several very
handsome cherry, mirror-backed
cases, containing large selection OF
silverware, cut glass, diamonds and
jewelry, which are charmingly dis
played. The room has been espe-
cially fitted up with the idea OF
making it attractive, and no detail
seems to be lacking, for upon enter
ing the door, the circular cases at
tract and hold ones attention, and
as progress is made the beautiful
wall cases continue to keep ones
L
lovely things on display.
The store is certainly one of, If
not the handsomest of its kind on
the Peninsula, and speaks well for
the push. energy and ability Of its
owner.

An Appeal To Mothers

The United States Government
directs its energies to destroying tu-
berculosis germs-it causes its SOL
diers to be vaccinated against ty-
phoid fever, and this precaution is
commended. Why not Mothers use
all possible precaution against the
little one having Group? Gowan's
preparation scatters all inflamma-
ton when applied externally. Then
why not buy today, and have for
emergency bottle in the house rea-
dy to give relief to the little suffer-
er If Group develops in the night?
The wise mother will do this. Co
vans is guaranteed, and often when
Group develops or threatens doc
tor cannot be gotten. Gowan's gives
the mind ease. You feel you have
done your duty. All druggists. 81.

Seed Corn tor Sale.

The corn offered for sale wa
produced from seed corn that was
brought from the great corn belt
of Indiana last year. and planted
near Cambridge, Md, the result be-
ing highly satisfactory. and we wish
every farmer In Dorchester county
could plant some of the corn this
year. This corn has become accli-
mated, and in our judgment II
will pay handsomely to plant it. The
seed will be carefully selected with
proper regard to male and female
ears and hand shelled. Farmers
try to improve everything on the
farm; why not Improve your corn?
This corn has long ears and small

MONEY TRUST PROBE
TO END NEXT WEEK
Investigation Nears End Owing to Lin
tied Time-Report to Contain
Many Recommendations.

The Pujo investigating committee of
the House has practically completed its
investigation, SO far as stock exchanges
and clearing houses are concerned. 1t
has also gone as far as 1t is able under
its present authority in the investigation
Of the concentration or money and credit
The life of the committee will expire with
the ending of the present session of
Congress, and the Investigators are going
to submit a report before that occurs.
Chairman Pujo, Of the committee, an
nounced last night that the committee
will suspend its hearings the latter part
Of next week, and will begin the prepara-
ton of a report based on the testimony
thus far adduced. Following the pre-
sentation of this report. an effort will be
made at the special session of Congress
to be called by President Wilson in
March to obtain legislation which will
permit the committee to pry into the
affairs OF national banks, particularly
their loan accounts.
Mr.. Pujos formal statement last night
means that there will only be one or two
more public sessions of the committee at
this session of Congress. Members of the
committee are certain that with the i'm
petus already gained they will be able
to obtain legislation from the incoming
Democratic Congress authorizing a deep
er probing of the so-called Money Trust.
From the developments thus far 1t is
already certain that the committee will
recommend the incorporation of all stock
exchanges and clearing-houses. 1t Is an
open question yet whether State or Fed
eral Interpretations will be recommended.
and the committee may finally decide TO
approve OF either.
Another regulation that the committee
is certain to impose is the requiring or
a complete statement of all promoters
profits in every issue of stock or bonds
listed on the exchange. J. p. Morgan
and important witnesses before the COM
mittee have favored such a regulation.
Mr.. Pujo. in a statement made public
last night, says that there are stIIl forty
witnesses which the committee would
like to examine, but that the time will
not permit.
The committee will adjourn to Febru-
ary 3 to consider its report.
