Mrs. John Mackay VIII Act A. Peace
maker In Domestic Difficulty

A late Paris dispatch says: Among the
meet brilliant affairs in Paris during the
past few weeks are the musicals which
have been given by Mrs. John Mackay-
Ever since the death of her husband
who was the famous California bonanza
king, Mrs. Macksy has made her home
here. She took naturally to French
ways and and the French
people have come 10 admire her greatly
for her simple, unaffected ways and
alert mind.
Mrs. Mackay is now visiting her son,
Clarence Mackay. whose rather abrupt
departure from New York with his
children has renewed talk OF a separation
between him and his wife, who was
Catherine Duer, the accomplished
daughter Of an old New York family.
1t is common talk here that the elder
Mrs. Mackay will try to effect a recon.
ciliation between her son and daughter
in law, OF whom she is said to be very
fond. The Mackay children are also
dear to their grandmother aud on theii
account, 1t is said, she will urge upon
her son the d~eeirability Of establishing
domestic peace in his household.

DIRECT CHOICE MEANS
CHANGE IN LAWS
State Legislatures Must Provide
For New Elective Measures
Regarding q. S. Senators

Washington. July "a Complications
are predicted as certain to arise over the
installation Of the direct election meth
cd for the selection of United States
SENATOR'S.
Most Of the trouble is expected TO
arise in the failure OF State Legislatures
to enact laws providing for the enact
nent OF such elective measures.
Leaders of the Senate majority are
anxious about the situation. Should
two or more vacancies on the Demo
cratic side Of the chamber occur, 1t
would necessitate the popular election
to fill vacancies.
There are 80 Senatorial terms which
will expire on March l, 1915. Some Of
the States already have provided a
method of popular election Of Senators.
but a great number of them have not
and vacancies caused by death or resig-
nation may cause at any time q popular
selection from States which have not
yet acted.
The Texas Legislature has be en-
calle1 to meet 10 a special session 70
to consider among other things, the
passing of laws for election machinery
necessary to carry out these ideas.
The situation is complicated by the
amendment further limiting the Gov
%ernor's power to fill vacancies in the
Senate.
In the past the Governor has filed
vacancies occurring when the Legisla'
ture was not in session. Hereafter q
Governor may not fill a vacancy unless
the Legislature of his Stare has empow.
cred him 90 make temporary appoint
ments until the people may fill the va
cancy.

Gossip OF The Comstock
And Embryo Millionaires

in the desert. The which the
Comstock gave to that road daily for
years, in freights and fares W
Sacramento and Reno. was enough to
build a mile of new road.
Marcus DAILY graduated as a mine on
the Coms;ock. More than that be
caught the Comstock spirit, and see the
miracle he wrought in Montausl
Davis Keith dropped down. or. rather.
climbed up to the Comstock, n green boy
from Nova Scotia. He had worked in
the coal mines there. On the Comstock
he sank the Caledonia shaft and an air
shaft or two over the Sutro tunnel.
From there he drifted east and went TO
work in the Ontario mine in Utah. AT
ter q while, consulting with another
mIRer, he thought he saw something
ahead. So be gave up his place and
started a tunnel. The result was the
Silver King, which has made all on
cerned rich and has more reserves in
sight nov than ever before.
Do you know that while the world
had been mining for thousands of years,
the first safety cage ever put in a min
was at the Yellow Jacket shaft in Gold
Hill on the Comstock? The in~credulous
had all kinds of doubts about the thing
working, but on a certain day it was
advertised for exhibition at 3 p. IN. A
great crowd surrounded the shaft. There
was the cage, but would it work? Ii
hung suspended in the shaft and the
shaft was 1900 feet deep. The superiu-
tendent of the mine, Gen. j. b. Win
ties, came along, stepped on the cage,
and then ordered the engineer to cut the
rope which held it. Men held their
breath. The rope was severed, the cage
dropped q foot. the clutches caught, the
cage stopped and was held and miners
were assured that another safety de-
vice had been added to mining. By the
way. that was the first cage that hun.
dreds Of those present lad ever seen.
Fred Hart was a bright Bohemian
writer in Nevada in those days. The
cage al the Yellow Jacket was the first
he had ever seen. A few days later he
went TO San Francisco and put up at the
Cosmopolitan hotel. and next day wrote
his experiences to his home paper. He
said that the cage in the hotel was big
ger than those at the mines; that men
and women, perfect strangers to each
other, would crowd in; that in that way
he got nearer TO q pretty girl than he
had been before in years; that in the
city all the men took off their hats when
they entered the cage; that the funny
part was that there was no engineer in
sight, but a boy ran it; when he wanted
it to go up be pulled a rope down, and
when he wanted il to 60 down he pulled
the rope up; that it stopped on every
level and passengers went out into the
drifts and crosscuts and others came
aboard, and they were all better dressed
than the miners on the Comstock. and
he supposed this was because the drifts
and crosscuts were so much better
lighted.
