OFFICIAL STORY OF THE
LIFE OF WOODROW WILSON

The general public knows very
little about the details of the life
of Woodrow Wilson:<
He has been reticent man as
to the interesting facts relating to
himself. .....-...
But Wiliamm Bayard Hale knows
Wilson as few men know him and
he has written an intimate study
of the president elect which every
American citizen should read:
When the going is rapid Wilson
isn't the man to bother about a
shock absorber. -.
His brain works as if it had been
taken out, cleaned and oiled that
day. -.
His laugh is hung in hair
trigger.
The prime thing that he is real
real all through from top to
bottom.

GOOO MINING
TIMES IN SIGHT

Periodical statements from the
United States surveyors Offices Of
the various western divisions leave
no ground for the superstition
that prospecting and patenting of
claims are any less than they have
been in former years. We hear
much about restrictions upon pro-
spectng. but the purchase of
mineral claims from the govern
ment goes on as usual. That
there is a great deal of untrodd en-
ground in the west, still much
inspiration left tor the man who
wishes to discover a new bonanza,
is the opinion of most men who
are following the BUSINESS.
Strikes of exceptional Importance
are more freqent than the outsider
inagines. The real problems
development, and the problem of
'develonment frequently falls hack
npnn the problem Of capital. As
the claims that are taken from
the public domain will reonire
capital 10 prove them unless they
are sufficiently valuable at the out
set. A survey for patent means
that at least 5000 worth of work
has been performed upon claim,
but it is in exceptional cases that
50 small an expenditure leads to
permanent activity. Outside ex-
penditure is the usual rule. With
the prosector, development means
expenditure of his own labor, while
at times he may be so fortunate as
to sell or procure financial sid
from others. In any event, it is
problem which is hest answered by
generally prosperous conditions,
which make it easier for men to
enlist capital in their ventures.
More prosperous times are opening
up before the country and this will
beof,benetit to many holder of;new

a dignified occasion: but ! was woe.
fully dlstaken. The fun had not
begun. Certain formaiities had to
be gone through before the signal was
given.
We took our seats in the courtyard
OF the palace, at a long table that
was loaded with large gilt dishes fill
ed With different colored balls as large
as oranges and filed with Holi pow
der. At signal the brother OF the
maharaja came to the front of the
table and salaained TO the prince, who
took one of the balls and threw it
gently across tie table, striking the

The/ball broke and scattered the
powder over his costume. Then there
was general scramble. and In less

and mingllng together, dyed us all In
brilliant variegated hues.
After this sort of thing had gone

RECORDING FINGER Prints.

Hitherto It has been customary In
following up criminal clews, to make
q permanent record of finger prints by
Photographic means. This method,
however, has number of obvious dis
advantages. Thus, for example, cases
arise in which the finger print to be
recorded is not accessible to an ordi-
nary camera Or again 1t may be To-
Gated upon some rounded surface
which cannot be properly focused.
DR. lIeindl describes one OF two new
methods which overcome these diff
calties The first method consists in
busting the impression which ID al
ways more or less greasy with some
colored powder, and then expressing
against it paper treated with a mix
.ture of fifty grams wax, fifty grams
paraffin. and twenty drops Of glycerin

thus treated. The second method
makes use of Photographic gelatine

above.
