''In accepting the valuations
given me by the people working
IN the various leases as being true,
the tonnage will not only be ex-
tremely large. but very profitable.
'The Big Four as lease Mol is
familiarly termed at a depth of
sixty-fve feet only confirms the

Reasoning by analogy, the own
ers of this lease are fully justified
in sinking from the present level,
and the capital would be elcourag-
ed to run a long crosscut tunnel.
which would develop not only the
Big Four but other leases on the
lode.
Progress on the hill will be
slow so long as hand drilling is in
vogue. Power drills should be
installed as soon as possible, as the
rock is extremely hard.
After an inspection of nearly all
the lease and proprieties worked
on company account, it is impos.
sible to arrive at any other con.
clusion than that the main vein is
permanent and that the-parelles
and spurs will also produce large
tonnage of ore that what is known
as milling grade"

He came here not only of his

held the other evening in the club
rooms. They discussed Rochester

merchants said:
Charlie, we are too busy to go

the trip out to Rochester and we
will take you word for what you

REFORMS DANCES
President-eIect's Daughter Sc
cures Edict Against Bunny
Hug" and Turkey Trot."

Especial to the Newark start
PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 11.-Miss
Eleanor Wilson, daughter of the
President-elect, put her foot down
quite firmly on the bunny hug. the
wiggly whirl and other interesting
dances INDUCED in by the students
of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine
Arts. where she is a student.
The artistic souls Of her fellow
classmates will hereafter have to be
satisfied with nothing more exciting
than the ordinary humdrum dances
Of strict propriety.
Miss Wilson took the matter up
with Henry ]. Lewis, head of the
academy At her request he has or
dered that the extreme forms Of
dances in future be barred to the
student body.
The kind Of dancing against which
Miss Wilson protested was in evil
dence at the masquerade ball given
BY the students on last Thursday.
She attended it and was thoroughly
surprised and shocked.
After speaking TO Mr. Lewis about
It she attended the noon-hour dance
the next day and saw less spectae-
ular repetition Of the same glides
and whirls and centortions. Now,
however. only the waltz, two-sfep
and other sedate dances will be
sanctioned.
Miss Wilson has been a student in
the academy for. two and a halt
years.

When may the student take unto
himself a bride and continue his coll
lege course? This is the question In
spired by the expulsion of Lefty
Flynn from Yale because he married
Miss Rena Leary. of the Winter
Garden Company. New York. The
answer came yesterday from DR.. Ar
thur t. Hadley. president OF Yale,
who said that marriages of under
graduates were dealt with differently
by the faculties of different colleges.
He added:
1.-THE presumption is against the fact
that an undergraduate can support
his wife unless he has asked the con-
sent of his father. II he has mar
ried without his fathers leave 1t is a
grave offense against academic dis
cipline and against law"
This, DR.. Hadley said. applied to
the case of the famous Yale athlete.
