There are couple of Tango Ar

cruel disappointment.
About midnight some gentle wag
with the abandon of an Apache saw

the ladies and busted window. It's
touching the way some ivory-domed
Americans show their patriotism.
John Olson, having failed as cook,
called Silo meeting outside and six
fellows got together and agreed to
buy a Silo each from the Rogers Lum-

he wants to get some neighbors with
Silos so they can buy a corn-cutting
machine together. I subscribed for a
Silo. Mr. H. S. Johnson of the Rog-

SAGE TEA TURNS
 GRAY HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's recipe to bring color, lustre and thickness to hair
 when faded, streaked or gray.

That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy ha'r can only be had by brew. ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul- phur. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face When it fades, turns gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy and scraggly, just an ap plication or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its appearance a hundred fold.
 Don't bother to prepare the tonic: you can get from any drug store a 50 cent bottle of "Wyeths Sage and Sul. phur Hair Remedy" ready to use. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color, thick ness and lustre of your hair and re- move dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair.
 Everybody uses "Wyeths" Sage and Sulphur because it darkens so natur. ally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw this through the hair. taking one small strand at a time: by morning the gray hair has disap- peared, and after another application 1t becomes beautifully dark and ap- pears glossy, lustrous and abundant.

STEALING IS ON DECLINE
High-Grading in Sonora Practically Nothing Compared With Few
 Menths Ago

DOUGLAS, Feb. 12-The renewal of mining activity in Sonora has had one extremely beneficial result com pared with even a few weeks ago. little or no high graded ore is being sent out. The gambocinos have prac- tically gone out of business in the sec ton to the south ~f D~'alas.
 Reports from NseozATi say ( Mexican high srsdere arc being fir ened away from property in that v' cinity,. after months of activity and the trade Of a few ore buyers in this illicit bullion has fallen away to little or nothing.
 From Agua Prieta 1t is reported that approximately S10.000 (gold) worth of silver and gold bullion known to have been pilfered from properties whose owners were absent passed through that port in November and about the same amount in December In January there was a notable de- crease not more than 5000 worth of bullion being sent across the line by gambocinos. This month the total promises to be exceedingly small.

CHANGES FOR AMERICAN
 MAKERS OF MACHINERY

Two things that Mining and Engin. eering World has long urged are the adoption of the metric system of weights and measures and of stand. ard methods and measurements in manufacturing and other industrial and scientific work. Progress is being made in both directions but nct as fast as 1t ought to be for our public and private welfare. Such progress as has been made has either been forced by conditions that have arisen or is due to the continual propaganda that has been engaged in fer many years.
 Manufacturers. particularly manu- facturersof mining machinery who are reaching out for business in Latin American countries, are taking cog nizance of the need for the adoption of the metric system and internation- al standards in the manufacture of their products. As manufacturers cf machinery fin the United States may look forward to increased business with westcoast countries of South America with the opening of the Pan anna canal to traffic, we take this op- portuniy r. direct their attention to condition that exists in Chile. In that republic there is a growing ten dency toward standardizationin ma chinery. Some years ago resolutions were passed by several of the so- cietiescf engineers in which the mem bers pledged themselvesto work for general standardization of measures and parts. This movement has been stimulated by a recent address by the Minister of Industra y Obras Publicas. who urged Chilean consumers to de- mand quotations in metric measure ments and to favor manufacturers who conformed to the sandard which was best adapted to become universal
 So far as mining machinery goes in Chile a difficult problem is pre- sented. Chile has bought mining ma chinery from every manufacturing country in the world. As a result deal. CTS have to carry in stock great quantoty of repair parts. Perhaps there is no country in the world where as much difficultuy has been expert enced in keeping machinery supplied with parts. In recent years there has been a tendency on the part of miners to buy machinery in the United States. This has been due not only to the gen. eral excellence of the American pro duct but to the fact that Americans are continually taking a more impor- tant part in the mining industry. Even , when the companies are owned by hileans. Germans or English. many of the managers are Americans, who are very likely to control the machinery purchases.
 Mine owners now are being urged on every hand to buy machinery where the metric standard units are used. This campaign is certain to have considerable bearing on the sales of machinery and as 1t is con. sidered unlikely that American man. ufacturers will adopt metric stand. ards 1t is feared by American miners in hile that it will result in a de- crease of American machinery sales here. Will American manufacturers of mining machinery let this market bslip away from them

It Is believed now that the proposition of numbering the players will be adopted. The proposition is regarded as especially reasonable in that 1t would facilitate the following of open plays.

" NASIiNh lONs ftD lE.-A new Southwestern trunk line. Co run from Grand Junction, Colo. to San Diego. iu southern 'alifornia. trayefsing tha states Of Colorado. New Mexico, Ar.zona. Utah and California. is pro. jec ed Construction work, it IS said will be started this spring The dc. ra tment of the interior has been in. formed that the line will be appr1xi mately 1000 miles long and will cost s4o,000 a mile exclusive of rolling stock and terminals.
 Secretary of the Interior Lane con. ferred today with a group of west err men who are interested in the railroad and it was said that.the sur. veys for the proposed line nave al. ready been completed. The repre- sentatives of the project have been in Washington in conference with Sec. retary Lane to learn the details of the steps necessary in the filing of proper applications for rights of way over public lands.
 The public lands involved consist of Indian reservations. forest reserves and power site withdrawals. Under the law the interior departmeut can grant to a common carries a right ot way over public lands with sites for stations and yards.
 Department officials believe the new road will be the means of de. veloping a large area Of public lands and the bituminous coal fields and iron mines in the states mentioned Te department will facilitate in every way the beginning of the woik.
 Secretary Lane said today that there was an act Of congress which provides that amp railroad company organized for railroad purposes may obtain a right of way over the public lands of the United States and roscr- vations by filing with the department maps and plans showing the right of way over which they propose to construct.
 Charles c. Carahan of Chicago is the representative of the new com. pany, and he has informed Secretary Lane that the surveys have been aom- pleted and application will be made for the public land within 30 days The railroad will traverse pa't of the country that is practically yir- gin. The nearest railroad to lt in some sections is 90 miles.
 Secretary Lane said today To representative of the Sun, discussing the proposed new trunk line:
 Tt opens up and makes accessible the coal and iron deposits of western Colorado and Utah to California, anf 1t makes a short line connection tc Colorado, which opens up a large amount of irrigable land
 -ln Arizona and New Mexico it will open up large areas of irrigable lands and will assist materially re. clamation service. The department is going to expedite the consideration of the application and the surveys when they are filed in due and proper form. as 1t will aid materially the policy of the department in opening up and developing public lands.
