Stopping and sacking of high grade
lead-silver ore has been started at the
Hypotheek mine in the Occur dAlene
region.
An improvement made on the tube
mill of the San Poll Consolidated COM
pany, in the Republic district has
raised the tonnage to 20 and 80 tons
a day.
Additional snowfall has played havoc
with outside work at the mines at
Wardner and resulted in the Last
Chance of the Federal group and the
Stewart closing down.
The Carbonate Center Mining COM
pany, having a capitalization of ST.,
100000, has been organized to take
over the property of the Tombstone,
Mining company, comprised of nine

world, died Sunday at Butte, succumb-
ing to a hemorrhage. With William
Page as his partner he competed in the
double-handed drilling contest at Den
yer November IS, 1891, and then won
the championship of the world.
Confirmation of the report that the
Golden Cycle mine and mills of Cripple
Creek, Col, have been optioned to the
Burris-Walker interests of New York,
representing the control of the Ell Paso
mine in the district, is made by Judge
J Mo(N Of
Cycle company. 1t is understood that
the consideration is $6,5O0,00O.
1t is estimated that the tital value
of the mineral output of Alaska in
1912 is $21, $50, 900, compared with $780,
100000 for 1911. The value of the
gold output of 1912 is estimated at
$16,650,0OO; that of 1911 was $16,S53,-
256. 1t is estimated that the Alaska
mines produced 2S,94O,OOO pounds,
valued at $3,364,5s4. The silver pro-
duction in 1912 is estimated to have
a value of 100000, as compared with
$243,923 for 1911. The value of all
other mineral products in 1912, includ-
ing tin, marble, gypsum, coal, petro-
leum etc., was about 100000, COM
pared with $176,942 in 1911. The total
value of Alaska's mineral production
since 1880, when mining first began, is,
in round numbers, 1929, 900, o.
which $500, 100000 is represented by
the value of the gold output. The
total output of copper in Alaska since
1901 is about 100000 900 pounds, valued
at about $13, 145,000.

BROOKLYN BRIDGE OBSTRUCTED
Biggest Jam Since Great Span Was
Opened Causes Temporary Panic.

Opened Causes Temporary Panic.
New York.-Brooklyn bridge was the
scene January "a of one of the largest
jams of humanity which the structure
has probably held since its opening 80
years ago, at which time dozen per-
sons were crusher to death. For so
minutes during the rush hour all traf-
ifc by rail was at standstill because
of a small fire in a shed under the
bridge, which cut off the electric feed
wires temporarily.
From 100000 to 100000 persons were
massed around the New York terminal
before the jam was relieved.

PLAYER.
"Rube" Sager once more was forced
TO retire under fire.
The last home game here this week
will be tomorrow morning with Keene
As the day was very dark all of
the pitchers used their speed almost
entirely.
Light is working today against New
port at the Island. 1t is the first visit
of Newport here this season.
Meagher complained that it was
hard to see the speed and he fooled
two or three of Paddy s. fast ones
but without damage.
Chenoweth dropped a perfect throw
from Meagher at second allowing a
runner a steal that should have been
an out by three feet.
In the inning in which Brattleboro
made three runs Breek told the batters
to do as they liked and not bother
about signals. They apparently liked
to whang out singles and did so.
After the score was tied "Paddy'
informed his mates that Greenfield
would not score and it was up to
Brattleboro to bang out a run. To
make sure they banged out two.
Greenield's new grounds are fine
and no mistake. Both infield and out
field are without a blade of grass and
high board fence surrounds the en-
| tire park The infeld is fast and,
while little rough in spots, will soon
be in fine condition.
Patten quit because he would not
follow Brecl1 IS orders. That put it W
to Paddy Lynch, who had pitched nine
full innings the day before, and the
| big fellow went in with the score
to 0 against him. He helped tie up
| things in the seventh with a clean sin
| gle and after the first inning in which
! he worked Greenfield never had a
| chance.

ing order of the local team had been
shifted and with Tewhill ut third and
leading off the attack the team looks
to be more consistent than before.
Patten started the game and issued
two passes and allowed five hits in the
two innings he pitched before he dis
agreed with Manager Breckenridge
and, in consequence, quit the game and
the team instanter. That put up the
pitching end of the game to ''Paddy'
Lynch, who twirled nine hard innings
the day before. A pass, a dropped
throw by Chenoweth at second to catch
o 'Keefe stealing, and the one single
Lynch allowed, gave Greenfield their
third and last run in the third. After

by some fast fielding by Carpenter in

error by Lambert at short and some
solid ivory playing by Greenfield s in

After Bennett opened the eighth with
solid single Conroy waved Sager to
the bench and called on Gibbs. Gibbs
quickly disposed of the next three men
but in the ninth the attack opened and
two more runs came across while
Paddy held the home team safe in
