HALIFAX DRIFTING
ON BIG QUARTZ VEIN

Drifting east and west has now been
commenced in the Halifax mGne ON the
body OF quartz encountered several
weeks ago in the south crosscut on the
1100-foot level, This quartz Is about
seventeen feet wide, and gives average
assay values of ss a ton but was not
at first thought TO be the downN ard ex-
tension OF the vein opened up on the
1000 foot level and it has not yet been
definitely determined that it is the same
ore body. but as the crosscut has been
extended beyond 1t and south of the
point where the vein was expected TO be
found, Ii is thought that It has been
thrown out Of position by a Gat fault
which can only be determined by further
exploration.
In the past week the body Of contact
quartz which Is being drifted on onl the
l400-foot level has shown great impr3ve-
ment- The face of the drift has become
more oxidized and shows considerit bic
manganese, and higher values have been
encountered, the ore now showing pay
able mill values, and II is believed that
the drift is now nearing the main east
and west vein,
On the 1000-foot level drifting on the
footwall of the vein is still In progress in
low-grade ore. and from the extreme west
drift raising Is also in progress on : a

ALASKA S MINERAL
PRODUCTION SLUMPS
Falling OFF Over Three and a
Half Millions, Chiefly
in Gold.

The value Of the mineral output of
Alaska in 1918 is estimated at $lS,o0o,-
600 by Alfred II. Brooks of the United
States geological survey, as compared
with So, ,537 ,s31 for 1917. The value of
the gold output is estimated at $15,-
100000; that of 1912 was $17 7.i45,95l,
There was also very marked decrease
in copper production, that Of 1913 be-
ing estimated to have been 100000
pounds, valued at about S3,014 900,
while that Of 1919 was 29,290, ,491
pounds, valued at $4,S23,OSl. AS the
Alaska silver output is largely n by
product of gold and copper mining. this
also showed a decrease in value from
$316,S39 in 1912 to about $920,000 in
1918.
The Territory has produced mineral
wealth to the value Of $24s,5o0,000. Of
this $22s, 100000 is gold, $16,5S0,00o
copper, $2,060,000 silver, $360,000 coal,
and the balance tin, lead, marble, gyp-
sum, petroleum, etc. Copper mining be
gan in Alaska in 1901, and the total
production is about ll0,000,000 pounds.

Accounting for Decrease.

Accounting for the decrease, geo
logical survey says that since more than
SIS, 100000 Of the total mineral output
Is in gold and that two.thirds of that
was produced by placer minos, the work
ing out of old bonanzas in the exception
ally dry summer of 1913 and other local
causes fully explain the figures. The
survey found no shortage of aurlferous
gravels, although it noted that many
deposits cannot be worked profitably
under the present high cost of opera
ton.
There was no railway construction In
Alaska during 1918. OF the 466 miles
of track previously built only about
200 miles were operated in 1913. This
is largely due to the high cost of fuel
and to the tax of 500 mile on all op,
Grating lines. These conditions have
tended TO discourage the railways, espc-
cially those which are but partially COM

T'intic Yield Large.

The Tintic district mines yielded ap-
proximately 100000 tons Of ore, all of
which was Of shipping grade excepting
q small tonnage of dump ore treated
locally by the cyanide process. Ore
mined at Park City aggregated about
225, 900 tons. of which about 10000
tons was shipped as crude ore and
concentrate. In Beaver county fully
2l2,000 tons OF ore WAS produced, Of
which the larger part was concen-
trated and about 1880 tons OF con-
centrate aud crude ore was shipped
to smeltcrs. There was also a large
quantity of old Stag shipped to the
dumps.
In gold yield decrease was noted,
due largely TO the closing Of the Mer-
cur gold mines. This loss was partly
made up, however, by the increase ip
gold from copper ores, bringing the to-
tai value of the gold produced to about
Sa.3S 300, which is about 10 per cent

Care of the Hair in
European Countries

In Southern Europe the very
straight, homely appearance of the
hair of lower class native women is
due to it's excessive kreasiness and
could be greatly improved upon by the
elimination of all excess oil. Through
out the continent among the higher
social classes, great care is taken to
keep the hair perfectly clean, not
with soaps and makeshifts but with
preparations made just for the sham
poo, and it is probably for this reason
alone that the hair of European wom-
en- is considered the most beautiful
in the world. The much desired fluff
finess and softness of hair which fol-
low canthroX shampoos are the re-
suit of its perfect cleansing power
You can avoid any bad condition of
scalp or hair by use of this economl-
cal homemade shampoo, which is pre-
pared very quickly by just dissolving
a teaspoonful canthrox (Which every
drug store carries) in cup hot water
and pouring slowly on the head as
you rub briskly. This makes a wealth
of rich, cleansing lather which will
soon restore the fluff and luster to
the dullest hair and encourage a beau
tiful growth.-Advertisem

was made colonel.
At the close of the war he engaged
