BIG MINING CASES
 ARE APPEALED

An appeal from the decision of the registrar and receiver of the local United States land office in the fam ous "Cordwood Jim" cases, involving Mineral Entry No. O12S6 made by The Cincinnati.Alaska Mining Com pany, embracing the Ready Bullion three and four lode mining claims, situated on Douglas island and ad- joining the Ready Bullion and MeXi- can Mine, was filed by John B. Denny and William Martin, attorneys for the Cincinnati, Alaska Mining Company. This will bring the cases before the commissioner of the general land of- flee at Washington, D. C., from whose decision they will go before the sec retary of the interior for final ad. indication by the land department.
 The claims involved were located in 1901 by the late James Borbridge, more commonly known as "Cordwood Jim" and Sam Stroder. and owing to the fact that the claims adjo'n two of the great dividend paying mines of the Treadwell companes and em- brace about 23O0 feet of the Ready Bullion vein or lode are valued at sev- eral million dollars by the applicants for patent, and like many other val uable mining properties, have been litigation ever since their discovery. The decision appealed from was rem dered by Registrar Walker and Re- ceiver Boyle, on protests filed by the Alaska United Gold Mining Co.,, and the Alaska Mexican Gold Mining Co.,, and involved the following questions:
 The regularity of the issuance Of Final Receipt or Certificate of En- try to Applicants John Johnston and the Cincinnati Alaska Mining Co.,; the question as to error in the offic- ial survey, sufficiency or value or improvements and the mineral char acter of the land, upon which issues a trial has had during the summer of 1911, which lasted several weeks, cost ing the litigants several thousand dollars.
 The decision on the main issues raised by the protest, is favorable to the applicants, but is to the effect that the sea-ward boundaries of the claims are below the line of ordinary high tide" and that discovery on Ready Bullion three claim was below such line, and recommendation is made that the final receipt be cancelled, which action, if taken by the land depart ment, would compel the applicants to make a new survey, and to establish their sea-ward lines at a higher level with reference to the tides, and likely open up another chapter of litigation in the federal courts.
 The Cincinnati-Alaska Mining Co. in taking appeal make nineteen as- signments of error, and maintain that the official survey of the claims is cor rect and final after being passed on by the surveyor.gcneral of the ter ritory of Alaska, and no appeal being taken from such decision; that the protestants have no standing in the case or right to conduct an adverce proceeding in the land office by means of a protest, and that the land de- partment is without Jurisdiction to pass upon any of the questions raised in the protests except as to the min eral character of the claims.

Remember This

According to an official statement from the at
torney general of the state of New York, Leuten-
ant Governor Martin j. Glynn is the lawful chief
executive of that state pending the result OF the
impeachment of Governor Sulzer.
This is one step further toward final solution
to New Yorlzs present problem of having dual

Besides this, there is hardly any more news to

The charges against the governor have not been
legally submitted to proof as yet. The smoke in
that direction is at present pretty dense, to be

guilty.
But if the governor really is guilty it shall be
remembered with burning face by every American
citizen that Suffers corruption has not been ex-

He Wrote s'Destiny'' in Three
Weeks and Won a $1,000 Wager

"a fool there was and he made
his prayer" smilingly quoted
William Schilling, stellar actor.
when he accepted a 81 900 wager
made by J. P. Shannon, dramatic
critic OF this Detroit Free Press.
Schilling had been playing for
three years in "a Fool There
Was,' and the critic queried him
as to why he did not get into
something new. The actor replied
that nothing better had presented
itself.
Said Shannon: 81 can write
you one in three weeks that has
this Fool There Was beat a
mile
1--WE got a thousand dollars
that says you can't" retorted
Schilling, and he smiled with that
confidence that comes to a man
who knows what's what.
Now it so happened that Shan
non needed the $1,000. Three
weeks he toiled and moiled and
then bore his handiwork to the
manager of the Temple theater,
Detroit, for judgment.
Schilling at the time was play
ing in Chicago. He had forgotten
Shannon and also the bet. Why
should he worry? Productions of
superior quality are few and far
between.
A telegram: Shannon wins
the bet. He has world-beater
for you" 1t was signed by the
manager of the Temple theater.
Schillin,g HE'D himself to De-
troit, read the sketch and was SO
rejoiced that he presented the
dramatic critic with an additional
$500 bonus. Fifteen hundred
dollars on the side in three weeks.
Not so bad for Shannon.

thing ever produced on the vaude-
Vile stage. A thousand dollar
wager certainly produced in "Des-
tiny" what so seldom is accredit-

Maybe there's moral in the experience Of Mrs
Matte Hannun, who at Evansville, Ind, as the
story runs recently collected $37 900 reward for
having, "a years ago, given to man who appeared
to be tramp, cold biscuit and cup of coffee
And the how of it was thus One day, an &C.
centric wanderer called at house in Vincennes,
in which Matte worked as maid, and asked for
bite to eat. The of the house drove him
away; but Matte, tenderer hearted, watched her
chance and gave him the makngs of meal.
Her kindness so impressed the wanderer that he
went to house nearby borrowed piece of brown
paper and ON it wrote his will, naming Matte as
his heir.
The years flew. In howell on the edge of
Evansville demented miser lived alone. Finally
be had to be taken to an asylum where he died.

found over $4,000 boarded Then Matte re-
membered her will and after long lawsuit she OBJ
tanned possession of the bulk of the refuses for

lucky hand-out.
We say maybe there's moral in this tale, but
