A BRANCH RAILROAD
Up LAT0UR CREEK
ROAD TO BE IN OPERATION BY
LAST OF AUGUST-EM-
PlOY 500 MEN.
(Wardner NeWs)

Latour creek will soon have rail
road in operation for a distance Of 10
miles, word that contracts had been
let for completing the road, being an
nounced here this week. The new
railroad is differed by II. V. Moore
of Pullman as president w. r. ia
ques of Pullman vice PRESIDENT; and
F. B. Foltz of Kellogg secretary treas
urer. L. w. Butler of Spokane is gen
eral manager in charge Of all the COM
pany's business affairs. The concern
is an Idaho corporation with a capt.
lization of $4,000
A we'll known Spokane contractor
has taken the contract to build the
road and put 1t in operation from the
O.-W. r. & n. to Buffers mill, 10
miles up the creek. Contracts for the
steel and rolling stock have also been
let. The work calls for a connection
with the O.-W. r. & n. line near Dud-
ley within 100 days from the 4th Of
April or by August 9.
The project has been under way for
several months, the stock In the cor
Germ being held chiefly BY local tim
Der owners. Bonds in the sum of $50
600 have been issued, this being Sc
cured by the company's timber holf-
ings. estimated at 60, 100000 feet FIR
which the company holds a warranty
deed. In addition the road itself be-
comes security with the timber hold
ings

tapped by the Latour creek road

and means handsome revenue for
the railroad alone without reckoning
the mineral resources which the road
will open up from which considerable
tonnage may be expected in the near
future. This section of the district es-
capped the disastrous fires of 1910 and

NEW ORE SEPARATOR
BY COLORADO MEN
DESIGNED TO HANDLE LOW
GRADE ORES ON LARGE OR
SMALL SCALE.
(Salt Lake Herald -Republican)

(Salt Lake Herald Republican
1t has ever been the dream of the
prospector and miner that he might
i've to see process discovered
through which for small amount of
money he might build him a little mill
at his isolated holdings; reduce his
values to metallic form or high
grade concentrate and ship to market
with the least possible profit to him,
the legitimate human manufacturing
factor in the creation Of this new
wealth for the world. That happy day
has come; the process perfected, and
a little 5-ton plant is right now dem
onstrating it every day at the Salt
Lake Engineering works, Fourth
South and Sixth West, according to c.
w, Clapp and his associate, Col. Geo
e. Cooke, who have constructed
equipped and perfected the Clapp
process. 1t takes the crude ore and
by roasting and using certain cheap
chemicals turns off the waste and pre-
cipitates and saves the metals separ-
ated and in metallic form, or in high
class concentrate. This is the first
story the world has had of this pro-
cess, which has been through a long
and toilsome series of evolvings, re-
curing the application Of 25 years Of
the lives Of two men. Mr.. Clapp has
spent the past seven years at it. In
his tests of yesterday, for instance, he
put certain kind Of nickel ore
through an analytical process 10
times. Each time the chemicals were
varied to secure a possible better re
covery The two crucibles with the
best results We're marked good" and
their record is preserved.
New Discovery.
"This is absolutely new discovery
in metallurgy," said Mr.. Clapp. Never
before was the chemist able to take
grind them up and extract each metal
separate" Last year w. s. Butler,
chief copper metallurgist of the United
States bureau Of mines, was here and
investigated. He expressed astonish-
ment in witnessing Mr.. Clapp make
one of these demonstrations, and in
just % minutes.
There are billions Of tons of ore in
Utah which with this process can be
made profitable" continued the metal
lurgist. Take for instance the i'm
mense tonnages of the oxidized cap
ping which is being removed and
dumped as waste every day at Bing-
ham, This ore probably carries to
Is per cent copper. The mills are
handling only the sulphides. Our pro-
cess can treat oxidized Gaping rock
successfully.
"Then there are the nickel deposits
Of Nevada, Oregon, North Dakota and
North Carolina. This carries from 4
to per cent. We expect to have our
process working in all these districts
Where the United States in 1912 i'm
ported all but 34S tons Of the $4,000
tons Of nickel used. we expect to be
supplying that $4,000 tons from home
mines in less than FIVE years.

Up In the old oak tree
There swung n nest of humble bees.
And when we came near to them,
They buzzed like n breeze
Yet, when we were walking by,
The bees began to sing
But when they sang around our heads
We couldn't do thing.
AS we tourneyed on our way,
We came to shady nook,
But later on In the day,
We fell into brook.
When we were returning home,
We had four miles to go;
Just then we met nm auto
Which carried US to our home

TOBACCO.

Tobacco requires moist climate
The seed OF the plants are planted, and
after some time a little plant comes
up. This little plant is pulled up and
planted somewhere else. 1t grows
about two feet. Unlike the flax plant
the leaves are taken and the stalk is
left. The leaves are then bundled up
In bundles and packed away In to-
bacco houses. After the leaves dry
they are then ready to be fixed To-
bacco Is used very much 1t is made
into different form as cigars and
cigarettes The leading States in tho
production Of tobacco are Virginia,
Kentucky and North Carolina
When the white people first came to
this country the Indians we're hero,
and they taught the white people how
TO raise and use tobacco. The white
people went back to England and
taught the rest of the people to raise
and use the plant The first man to
take II to Europe was Raleigh. He was
smoking II. and when his servant saw
him he thought he was on fire and
threw bucket of water on him.
Many people make their living by
raising tobacco. 1t is favored with
different things. Halifax. county in
Virginia, is noted for the production
of tobacco. EMERY HALL.

by his son. The little boy got tired

bear jumped into some water and then
on the fire till he thought he had put

limb and saw what had happened.
When the bear left he flew down and
famed with his wings till he found a

TIE FLOOD OF oGYaEs.

The early settlers OF Greece were
named Pelasgians. They were wild
and savage. The Egyptians and
Fhoenicians, who lived in Africa, were
civilized nations. They had ships and
sailed all around the Mediterranean
Sea, and one day they came to Greece.
The first Egyptian who settled IN
Greece was named Inachus, who taught
the Pelasgians many useful things.
and soon founded city called Argos.
The Pelasgians were smart, and began
building great strong walls out OF
stones so heavy that their descendants
said these walls had been built by
giants.
Soon after Inachus had founded Ar
COS n terrible food took place, and
the waters came up on the land and
tho people fed for their lives to the
hills. and many of the Pelasgians were
drowned. AS Ogyges was King at that
time. 1t was called the deluge of
Ogyges.

The Phoenicians are the most import

TO the great Semitic race, the race to
which most of the Oriental nations
belonged. Phoenicia lay between the
Mediterranean Sea and Mt. Lebanon.
1t isn't from the fact that the extent
of their territory made the Phoenlcians
great, but from the fact that the great
part they played In the history of the

the earliest merchants and colonizcrs

Greeks, who soon became their great
rivals. AS early rs the ninth century

HOPE.

In this struggling life Of toll,
We are sometimes In despair,
And the road that leads to tho future
1s filled with trouble and care.
There are sorrows and disappoint-
mcntS,
There are shattered hopes and strife,
Which arouses n feeling within us
TO end this bitter life.
Grief enters in ut the doorway,
And steals our joys away.
And the path that she leaves behind
her
Is AS dark as n rainy day.
Then hope comes in with rejoicing
And brings us happy hours;
She heals the wounds Of our sorrow,
And strews our path with flowers.
Through faith and hope we look up
ward
To the happy home Of the blest,
And hear our Saviour calling:
Comet all we that labor, and rest"
In that land there shall be no more
sorrow,
No more disappointments, or pain.
There shall be no more sadness and
weeping
And above all. there shall be no more
SIN
For there we can rest with the Father
In those beautiful mansions above
And hear the bright angels singing
OF happiness, praise and love.
And so we must always be working,
And taking no time to sigh.
Still doing the will Of the Father
Till We reach our Home in the sky.

Hush! the old year lies a-dying,
Thorns and roses crown his brow;
Recollections sweet and bitter
All are passing with him now.
Hark! the trump of time is sounding,
Now the year fades at its call;
Stars put on the veil of mourning,
Sorrow In the hearts of all.
See! from yonder clouds descending,
All In purple glory dressed,
Another newborn year OF gladness,
Gladder still than all the rest.

And my heart thrills with delight
All the land Is filled with beauty,
And the whole world seems Alright.
