THE MAMIE MINE
IS A SURE GO

H. W. Heidman, of the Granby Mining Shelter and Power company of B. c. arrived here on the Spo- kane yesterday and will go to Had ley today to begin work on the com pany property there, this company having purchased the Mamie mine, including the smelter, tramways and etcs. some time since. Mr. Heidman will rebuild the tram from the mine to tide water, after which work on the mine will begin with a good force of men. The following we glean from the Alaska and Northwestern Mining Journal:
 The Granby Con. M. s. & P. Go. was organized in March, 1901, unde the laws of B. e. Office, Broad way, N. Y. Mine office Phoenix Boundar7 district, 5. c. Original capitalization of $15,OOO,000, laI March the company increased it's capitalization by issuing $5,O0O,00O 6 per cent interest bearing conYer- table bonds, which were under writ ten by a single N. Y. firm. This company has wrought a great chang in the wilderness at Granby bay, B. c. about 90 miles s. E. of KetchiLa in the past two years. The company have expended upwards of $3,OOn,- 900 in developing their Hidden cree mines at Granby bay and building @ fine modern 2,OOO ton smelting plant, machine shops, a great sea wall and wharfs, completed a large reservoir which will insure them sufficient water power at all sea- sons of the year. The Granby com pany is one of the most successful concerns in the treatment of low grade copper ores in eXistanCe to date. They have taken over the Mamie mine at Hadley P. of W. Is- land, about 30 miles from Ketchi- kan aud have the property section ized preparatory to diamond drilling early in the spring. The advent of this company into the field means much for Ketchikan district.-Ketch ikan Morning Mail

WILL VOTE ON BONDING
 COUNTX TO STATE

Ely, Nev. Dec. 9-Rather unusual conditions surround the proposed $5O,OOO bond issue for Churchill County, to be voted on, the money | be used to improve the lincoln Highway in this county. The amount is to be borrowed from the state and will bear interest of 5 per cent CT $2,5OO yearly. In retur the state expends this money in the public schools of Churchill county.
 Judge c. A. Norcross, Commission ar of Agriculture, Industry and Irri- gation, declares this amounts mere ly to taking money from one pocket and placing it in another.
 This is an entirely different matter to selling bonds outside the state, said Judge Norcross.. Then the interest is all outgo which is not returned-in any way to the taxpayer It is a better business proposition for the county to sell it's bonds to the state. The interest is always eX pended in the county from which it is received"
 Gov. Oddie at Reno recently said that he favored the counties bond ing themselves in this manner to i'm prove the Lincoln Highway across Nevada.

WORKING FOR \ WINTER
 TRAIL TO THE CHISANA

Dawson News: The committee of the Dawson Civic League, George F, Johnson, chairman. met with Con- missioner Black this afternoon and presented the application of the league for a better trail between Dawson and the head of the White this inter. The cOmmittes sent 8 telegram to J. c. Phelps, oper- ator tt White River, several days ago, asking for information, as fol- lows:
 Ascertain, if possible. the num- Der of freighters, private individ- uals and general volume of traffic that will come to Dawson provided a good sleighing trail is made on the Yukon river to the mouth of the White. Wire fully all informa- tIon as to necessity and desirabil- ity of such a trail being established.
 Mr. Phelps sent the following re- ply to the Civic League:
 For some time past freighters, mushers with dog teams and outfits have teen spending their time, money and hard labor endeavoring to relay their outfits towards new camp. Nearly all blame the people of Dawson for not trying to assist them in some manner. All purchas- ed their outfits in Dawson, and con- demn the trail and winter route. Number O them are from Fairbanks and lower river points. Unless som action is taken immediately to se- cure a good trail from Dawson to DonjeE on the Snag, Dawson will miss the winter and spring trade
 Al who have been interviewed hail with delight the idea of the Yukon river trail, and everybody including 400 or 500 prospectors To- cated between here and discovery, will do everything in their power to turn the drift of trade to Dawson and the new trail. Merchants and traders here who carry only a im- lted supply of prospectors' outfits are willing to assist in any manner to secure this new trail, which they claim will bring them a stage line, g mail route and cheaper and quick

Is the furnace oiled and ready for it's task? Not much longer in soft breezes may we bask, for winter soon is due, with it's sting and storm and stew-that's the reason, gentle reader, why I ask. Have you banked the house the way it ought to be? Have you got a pile OFkind ling fair to see? Have you got your winters slate ready for the stove and grate? Oh, you ought to try and pattern after me! For old Winter never hits me uuawares; am ready when he rips around and tears, with my briar and my book, in the cozy inglenook, with my feet upon a dozen chairs. An, the careless man Is always in the hole; when the bllzzards and the temp ests start to roll, he is raging here and there, in his fury and despair, begging dealers for a basketful of coal. And the dealers view his com ing with a frown, and they wilt him with a glance and turn him down, for their phones are bringing in, with a clangor and din, such ap- peals from every corner of the town. How wish you'd look ahead a day or two and be ready for the storm with a house that's good and warm, and a larder full of tempting things to chew-Walt Ma son.

and many were. in the balcony. All candidates were put through simul- taneously, but it required so long for all to sign and pay up during the necessary recess interval that it was between 1 and o'clock be- fore the work could be broken off. Even then it was found that much business requiring attention was necessary, and it was decided to not adjourn but to continue the same session until next Thursday even ing which leaves the charter open one week more. It had been intend ed to close the charter and to make last nights session the last with the open charter, and to celebrate the closing with a smoker and en- tertainment the same evening. But owing to the fact that Bosco Yovan- aviCh, one of the members, had died since the last meeting, the propos- ed festivities were cancelled, and it was decided to hold them next week, and for that reason it was further desired to not close the charter, as it was planned to make the closing signal event.-Dawson News.

there was nothing else to do but send
in Curly Graves.
1t is true that Curly" isn't Smoke
BALI; but at the same time he is by
no means a dub. Indeed. mol When
that wide curve of his comes floating
up to the plate and breaks like a
flash of lightning, the batter whaling
away at it would most likely turn
around and try to whale anyone who
laughed at him for letting a dub"
fool him.
But it is not always that -"Curly"
is right" In fact, that is his great
est trouble. Tall, thin and delicate
looking-the other side usually calls
him "Toothpick" or "String-bean" or
the "Hat-Pin piteher"-he has days
on which his curve breaks nicely his
arm holds out and he is able to stand
the pace. But on others-well, he
is decidedly what is known as an Sin

In the game with the Mohicans,
however. Curly" was having one of
the best days his teammates had
ever known him to have. AS evil
dence of the fact. the game had gone
into extra innings, and Curly" hadn't
given even the first signs of ."blow-
ing" And now, it seemed, he was
to reap the reward of his gallant
fight.
1t was the eleventh inning and the
Red Lot team had showed over a lone
tally that looked to be the winning
one-if the Mohicans could be held
down in their half. The contest was
being played on the Mohicans
grounds so, of course, they had last
raps" in each inning. Now, the score
stood Red Lots, 4; Mohicans, 8.
Could Curly do it? He felt he
could-and you can just bet every
member of the Red Lot team thought
so tol There were eight determined,
game, wide-awake fellows on that
field behind him-and that means
lots to a pitcher, as you know your
self if you are one.
The first Mohican to bat Scrap

Then he stopped down and pretend
ed to start the machine by turning a
switch. OF course, he was only max
ing believe. but something unexpected
happened.
In his eagerness to show how much
he knew about motor cars he moved
some tiny levers just under the steer
ing wheel, pressed a pedal with his
right foot, gave the levers at his side
shove forward, turned on the switch
that started the engine to going, for
the machine was a self-starter and
needed no cranking, nd

Hollister was clearly frightened.
He held on TO the steering wheel and
guided the car up the paved street.

fast. Losing his nerve. Hollister de-
cided he could not manage the ma
! chine.
Everybody jump" he shouted.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-08-10

begged Dwight Newton.
"Naw!" replied Hollister. "Your
wrists aren't strong enough to guide
the wheel. Besides. you don't know
how to regulate the gas or change
gears
Yes I do, tool" returned Dwight.
Guess I've been around autos as
much as you have"
Besides. you don't know anything
about the carbureter. What if it
should get out of fix? You wouldn't
know how to put it in shape"
Il wcrld, too. You may think you
know about the carbureter, but 1 bet
you can't tell where the magnetic is"
To tell the TRUTH neither boy knew
the difference between the carbureter
and the magnetic. But they had
heard these names and were deter
mined to show how much they knew
about motor cars in general.
1T takes a steady hand to guide
thewheel and if we are going to go to
New York tonight we need a man who
knows how to run it," said Hollister,
a bit boastfully.
You'd run it in a ditch-that's
where you'd run it," said Dwight.
The girls. meanwhile. had been ar
ranging themselves on the cushions so
as to appear to best advantage. As

the streets were wide and we'll paved,

made the first turn successfully,

AS the auto drew near the last
turn Gwendolyn glanced at the
switches and pedals at her feet and
finally decided which was the neces-
sary switch to shut off the power.
She reasoned that by turning off the
electricity the engine would have to
stop.
AS she came near the house she
saw her uncle Standing at the curb.
Don't worry. Uncle Dick" she
called. It know how to stop it."
She guided the machine to the side
of the curb and reached down and
gave the switch twist. The ma
chine stopped. The next thing she
knew, she was in the arms of her
uncle.
You brave little chauffeur he
said. You may not know what a
carbureter is but you have more
courage than the boys and that's what
counts"
The boys looked ashamed.

tinued. And as for the boys-they
