MILWAUKEE, Sept. 2O.-One Of

Party tickets appeared in the vari-

put up by the men who had no pols-

Tries to Make Flour
Of Wild Marsh Rice
Manufacturer Is Conducting Expert.
ment In PoppIe River District
of Minnesota.

CHICAGO, Sept. 20.-F. L. Vance,
the wild rice king" has undertaken
an experiment in the Popple River
district of Minnesota, which possesses
curious interest, but which probably
will not become anything important
that is. the manufacture of flour
from wild rice.
This plant is common in the marshy
country, and the product had been
used to some extent as food, taking
the place of such edibles as oatmeal
OF any other porridge, but it is diff
cult to obtain in satisfactory quaint
ties, and hunters who desire to seed
marshes with it have not always been
able to get enough of it for that
purpose.
Moreover, Mr.. Vance is likely to
meet with stout protest from the
hunters, for this wild rice is favor
ito food with mallard and other
ducks.

he does so, he is almost certain to

debonair citizen, who is his most in
innate friend in the South.

matician could tell how many match

Sir Thomas in their matrimonial nets,

some as a girl at her debut party.
He has several big houses in Great
Britain, where he entertains royalty
and that is the only word to use
= royalty. He has a splendid steam
yacht, capable of taking large parties
on long cruises, and no expense is
ever spared to make these parties
thoroughly enjoyable.
But Sir Thomas has never wan
dered anywhere near the matrimonial
net. I don't believe he would know
how to give an opinion on the alb
sorbing question now IN Atlanta

Whether the match making NAM
mas in America will succeed better
than the mothers and eligible daugh
tiers in Great Britain Is hard to tell.
Personally. having known Sir Thomas
a good many years, I believe he is
a confirmed bachelor
Of course, if he should win the
American Yacht Cup, IN a moment OF
exuberancy, he might propose and
be accepted by some one of our beau

If he comes to Atlanta, Colonel
Raglan will give him the time Of his

MANY residents OF Atlanta who
were here when the city was
young are deeply interested In
the marriage of Miss Pauline Peters,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph
Peters. of Garden City, L. /, to
George w. Pierpout Of New York
Miss Peters is the granddaughter OF
Richard Peters. who was Atlanta's
richest pioneer citizen. She has many
kinspeople here among the members
of the Peters family and has often
visited them.
Nv friends who remember farther
pack than I do. tell me that Ralph
Peters, father Of the bride-elect, was
the handsomest man in Atlanta and
the greatest beau of his time. He is
now a very successful railroad man
and wealthy citizen of New York
and of Garden City where the fam
fly make their home.
This pretty daughter Of an old At
lan+a family is a girl of high ideals
and accomplishments as well as So
cialIy very charming. For one thlh2'
she is interested IN lace-madng and
in her rousseau will be beautiful
specimens of her work, She has made
some exquisite filet and thread lace,
and on a visit here. a few years ago.
while she was still a schoolgirl, Pau
fine Peters lace work was the center
Of attention.
: I think several Atlanta girl friends
tried to make lace but none Of them
persevered long enough to achieve the
skill of little Miss Peters. The young

Desperately III on the summit 81
Mt. Rose and without water for &c
hours. f 3 Williams. instructor in
the chemistry department Of the Uni
versity Of Nevada, was saved from a
situation which might have turned
out disastrously for him when Frank
Bannigan, an assistant in the chem
istry department, made the round trip
from Mt. Rose to Washoe City and
return in day, summoning help and
bringing medicine.
Hardly able to drag one foot after
the other, Bannigan was nearly ex-
hausted when he reached the hating
place at the foot Of the steepest part
Of the ascent, where a house Of sand
bags has been constructed. He
pushed on, however, after short
rest, and reached his companion late
Monday with medicines and water.
These refreshed Williams so much
that he was able to struggle down
the mountainside yesterday missing
Prof J. r. Church, who rode horse
to the summit and return to bring
Williams down.
He overlook Williams and Banni-
gan on the return trip and brought
I Williams on horseback to Huffaker's
where he took the train for Reno.
Although still suffering from the eff
fects of his Illness, Williams is not
much the worse for his experience.

BONANZA ORE PICKED UP
IN OLD GROUP OF BULLION

Twelve feet Of solid ore Of excep-
tional high grade has been opened
up at Bullion, according to adyices
received in Elko, and from the re.
ports the development OF the ore
body has resulted in neither hanging
or foot wall being encountered The
real dimension or the ledge remains
unknown although crosscut is be-
ing sent out in search Of the walls
while drift is being pushed ahead
along the trend Of the ore body
The discovery was made on the
lease of Kerr and Peterson, who are
operating on the Nevada Bunker Hill
Mining company property at depth
og about 100 feet, and has been de
scribed as bonanza. The Ieasers
have sunk an incline shaft and the
bottom Of the workings is in ore.
The drift and crosscut sent out re-
veal chamber Of ore, the values be-
ing eonseryatively estimated at $3.50
ton, although assays Of samples
give returns Of twice this mark
Fred Davis, superintendent of the
Bunker Hill Mining company, declar-
ed the find was one of the most i'm
portant developments made in the
old camp of Bullion in recent years
/ THE newly opened up ore body
can truthfully be described as a boz
nanza," announced Mr.. Davis. The
real dimensions of the ledge remain
unknown at the present time, not
withstanding the fact that a crosscut
has been sent out seven feet in one
direction to tap the wall and the
face continues in ore. In another
direction a drift has been sent along
the trend of the vein and the face
is now seven feet from the Wine
bottom The drift likewise contin
ues in ore
Kerr and Peterson, who have beer
operating the lease since spring
picked up ore from the grass roots
AT a depth of 80 feet drift was
sent out along the ledge and this pro
) gram was repeated at the 60 foe
depth and also at the present bot
tom workings. A car load OF ore
extracted from the development wori
is now on the railroad tracks, await
ing shipment, while the operators
have two car loads Of ore sacked
awaiting transportation to the rail
way Three six horse teams are en-
gagged in the transportation OF or,
J to the Eureka-Neyada railway In Pin,
! valley, and there is a likelihood tina
additional facilities will be needle,
within the next few months.
: Two properties adjacent to tn
Bunker Hill estate are also engage
: in shipping ore. The Nevada Bullio
Mines company is one of the cor
Germs that is now in the money an
the other is Sweepstakes, whie
