ACADEMY SURPRISES
INQUIRIES ELEVEN
Blue and Yellow Wins From University by Score of 10 to
Coach Arnod's Work Helps Team, and They
Are Contenders in Race.
BY RALPH DoMBRowEK.

Ass OONuokNNJ HShes
Everyone of that large crowd who
went to Broad Street Park yesterday
afternoon to witness the football game
between McGuire's University team
and Richmond Academy came away
surprised. The reason for the per-
piexlty was that the Academy team
won the game from the MCGUIRE
eleven by the score Of 10 to Q.
It was thought that the Academy
team was the weakest in the Prep
School League because Of lack OF ma.
teria1. but Coach Arnold had worked
hard during the two weeks tnterven-
Ing his last game with league team
and has formed Z strong machine
The Academy players yesterday played
with more pep" In their work than
ever before and seemed rejuvenated.
On the other hand, tho Mcclure
eleven lacked their usual spice and
was not the same team that met Bene-
dictine last week. The eleven played
a good game, which was sensational at
times. but the thing that they needed
most to help them when they had
good chances Of scoring were missed
They lacked the snap and vim in their
play and, together with the onslaught
OF the AcAdemians. they were dazed
There were some at the park yester-
day who expressed the belief that the
Mcclure eleven was overconfident ana
laid this as reason for their defeat.
The game started promptly at $40,
and when jackson. for McGuire's,
kicked off, both elevens were on their
feet ready to get their hands on the
ball.

The contest between these two

Changes In the Map

An interesting feature of the present war is found in the possibi-
ties presented for the changing OF the worlds map, whatever may be
the outcome. 1t is said that the sun never sets on the British flag, and
Possessions of the latter nation extend to the utmost corners of the
globe, although by far the largest are in Africa. Leaving aside the pos
sibiEty that the allies may lose their foreign possessions, it is interesting
to observe the situation of German possessions and to speculate upon
their opposition in the event of the triumph of the allies. In Africa,
Asia and the Pacific islands, Germany owns $4,000 square miles of
territory, with a vast population that is dominated by the German gov
ernment but whose loyalty is questioned.
Four-6fths of Germany's colonial possessions are in Africa and it
is practically all contiguous to and separated by arbitrary lines from
possessions of Great Britain, France, Portugal or Belgium. Whatever
may be the outcome of the war these boundary lines must be changed.
Great Britain has lost no time in attacking German territory in Africa
and when peace comes this will be an important factor, as actual posses
sion will figure largely in determining the ownership of such territory.
The British forces in Africa are considerably more powerful than those
of any other country, overshadowing any except the French in the ex-
IRENE north, where Great Britain has no need for troops. Already the
British have taken, without great opposition, some of Germanys
African possessions, and if Germany is worsted in this war it is prob
able that Britain will get the lions share in the general partition of this
territory among the allies.
In Polynesia the British colonial forces have taken possession of
Gernanys base in the Bisnark Archipelago and her important station
in Samoa has also been occupied by the British. Onehalf of the large
island of New Guinea is owned jointly by Germany and Great Britain
and this will probably fall into British hands. Kiao Chow, where Ger
many has established a coaing center, with forts and drydocks on the
China Sea, is far to the north of any British base, Hong Kong being
over a thousand miles to the south, and this point can be left to Japan
The British naval forces in the far east, supplemented by the dominion.
fleets of Australia and New Zealand, will be more than adequate to take
care of any German opposition on the seas. The new map will be an
interesting one.

The Suffrage Movement

Some pertinent questions are set forth for woman suffrage ad
vocates to answer in a communication to a Minneapolis paper from
North Dakota correspondent. The questions are no less pertinent
the people of other states, particularly of those in which the question @
universal suffrage is being agitated and where efforts are being mad
to secure Legislative enactment of suffrage laws. The communication
which merits the attention and consideration OF the people of this state
follows:
When an established order of government is attacked by a
proposed reform, it is not only right, but the duty of every citizen,
able results of its operation. AT the present time North Dakota
stands n the eve of a great decision regarding the ballot. Before
final step is taken would it not be well to know more definitely the
exact platform of the suffrage movement: Excitement does not
constitute reason, or popularity justify unqualified acceptance of
any proposition. Will some informed member of the suffrage

3. To what extent has the temperance cause been benefited

Italy and the War

The attitude of Italy has been a cause of no little anxiety and
speculation during the present war. although, since her proclamation
Of neutrality, there has been no expectation that she would assume the
position OF an active member OF the triple alliance. On the contrary,
the opinion has grown stronger that she will eventually be compelled to
allies. Thus far she has pursued a waiting policy, but has been quietly
preparing for any eventuality by partial mobilization of her army. Italy
does not want war. She is impoverished IS the result of the late war
wrested from Moslem domination, but her statesmen realize that the
force her to take up arms, if only to guard against retalatory measures
by the Porte.
Upon the renewal OF the triple alliance, in 1913, it was with the
even ii ough it provided only for a defensive alliance and did not cover
the Mediterranean. In the first place, in 1882, Italy joined in this I'M
natural alliance a a moment when disputes had arisen with France over
their mutual plans for colonial expansion, which confGcted seriously in
Tunis In 1850 Victor Emmanuel grandfather of the present king, con
tracted an alliance with Napoleon III. and joined in the war against
Austria. AS a result of this war Iombardy was taken from Austria and
the various Italian states were unified. Again, in 1866, Italy joined with
Prussia, at the instigation of Bismarck, in war on Austria and acquired
Venetia. Italians have little love for either Austria or Germany. They
have long coveted the northern shore of the Adriatc, with its important
Austrian ports of Trieste and Fiume, the population of which is chiefly
Italian. They also regard with suspicion not only the domination OF
Balkan affairs by Austria and Germany, but the evidences of German in
fluence in Turkey. The late Balkan war brought about conditions re
1ating to spheres of influence in the AdrIahc which threatened to result in
hostlites between Italy and Austria.
Italy's course will be determined and frr action dictated by two men
who are in thorough accord and who are regarded as among the most
statesmen of Europe. They are King Victor Emmanuel III. and
bic FOREIGN minister, the Marquis di San Giuiano. The latter is now a
dominant figure in Italy. He has, in unequivocal terms, declared himself
&c onposed to joining with Germany and Austria in the present war, He

MANHATTAN MEN
LIKE new CAMP
is A GREAT FIELD FOR
PROSPECTOR

John G.. Mihelitch and j.. Bostian
of Manhattan, who have been spend
ing a couple of months at the Leon
part of this county, are spending a
few days in Tonopah IN route to
their home in Manhattan, and the
following is taken from an interview
with Mr.. Mihelitch published in the
Tonopah Bonanza:
Leonard creek is situated in
Humboldt county, 40 miles north
west of Winnemucca, on a good, lev
ell wagon road, twenty-five miles
south of the Oregon line. Located
along the creeks are many prosper
GUS farms settled by ranchers long
ago. The many tributary creeks,
gulches and ridges are rich in placer
gold. which was discovered this year
by Messrs. Moffat, Alley and Rose
Arst on the bench of Tepee creek,
and since then the new find Is being
broadened into Chicken creek, Snow
creek, Sagehen creek, New York can
yon, which are all tributary to Leon
ard creek. There is plenty of water
for sluicing and mostly could be
worked at bedrock with a pump
without any difficulty after July 1
for eight months. The placer and
quartz territory extends for twenty
miles and it is a great field for a
hardy prospector who is not afraid
of hard work and other difficulties
to find new gold discoveries there.
for surely the capital is bound to
follow him, as the mineraI1zed ter
ritory is very large for operation,
and claims could be bought reason
ably.
CHOSE who contemplate going
should be well prepared with pro-
visions and have their own camping
outfit. as nothing can be bought
within seventy-five miles from the
nearest station, Jungo, on the West
ern Pacific. There is no timber, and
the fuel is sagebrush, except for min
ing. Poplars grow along the creek
for fifteen miles. Game is plentiful,
with sufficient healthy spring water"

The Mining Industry Abroad

The war is having a far-reaching effect upon the mining industry
in countries other than the United States. The cessation of operations
by smeters in Rhenish Prussia, and those at Hamburg and Essen, as
well as the closing of the Belgian smeters near Liege, has cut off the
market for the product of mines that have been shipping to those coun-
tries, notably of the Broken Hill district. In some quarters it is be-
Geved that this will have the ultimate effect of permanently shifting
the smelling industry, insofar as Europe is concerned. This will, how
ever, depend in large measure upon the length of the war.
The present difficulty will, without doubt, tend to stimulate the
search in this country for potash salts, IN the production of which Ger
many has enjoyed a practical monopoly. Efforts are now being made
to increase the production in this country. One of the centers of the
potash mining industry in Germany is NTuelhaasen, which has lately
been the scene of an important battle.

ORE
IS DISCOVERED
GOOD SPRING NINE ROCK FOUND
TO CARRY THAT
METAL

A remarkable discovery has been
made in the ore of the Boss mine in
the Good Spring district, says the
Las Vegas Age. For some time the
assays made for gold have shown
peculiarities, and the mine assayer
reported the presence of platinum.
Numerous assays were made by him
for this precious metal with the
same result, the platinum values
showing from 6 to IS ounces per
ton.
To confirm these assays samples
of the ore were sent to Ledoux, an
alytical chemist, New York, and to
Dunlap of the United States geologi-
cal survey. Messages have been re-
ceived from both the above confirm
ing the assays of Mr.. Riddal.
In addition to the above word has
beer received that the government is
sending a representative of the geo.
logical survey to the district to in
vestigate the astonishing discovery.
ohipiI0uI VI ore sent 10 the
smelter recently and which returned
$500 per ton in gold, is now found
to have contained an additional
value of $500 or more in platinum.
Platinum is a very precious metal,
having been quoted On the market
at $55 to $50 per ounce, approx
mately three times the value of gold.
The worlds supply has been produc-
ed in the Ural mountains in East
Russia, from placers. In America
little or no platinum is produced, a
small amount being found in Wyo-
ming and small amounts in portions
OF California. A small amount of
platinum exists in the Key West
mine in the Bunkerville district in
this country. 1t Is now believed by
the best informed mining men here
that platinum exists in paying guam.
