 Materials have their influence, too. Fabrics having a bright surface will be more successful than dull ones- For instance, the little woman will look much more important in satin or one of the shiny silks. as charmeuse or meteor than, say in a gown of dull, cling1ng crepe de chine. Very thick goods should be avoided. but velvet, veIveteen, sponge, serge, and the pop 1ins are gocd.

Werrenrath, Interpreter Of Scandinavian Songs,
 Sings Here Tomorrow

Tn no sense of the word, a specialist, Reinald Werrenrath, an American baritone, is nevertheless one of the fine Interpreters of Scandinavian songs, which he sings in the original Scandinavian languages He was the first singer of American birth, who sang the Grieg songs in the original Norwegian.
 Mir. Werrenradh is a son Of the late George Werrenrath, who was. in his day, the most distinguished Danish tenor. It was the father, who taught him to sing the method. for which the elder Werrenrath was considered a model In his generation. But in enunerating the many, noble qualities of the younger Werrenfath, one is ever swayed by tine individual ity of his style, a wholesome, a manly vigor, combined with exquisite re- flnement and polished action. No mat ter in which language Reinald Wer- renratll sings, he is understood and enjoyed by his audiences. Werren- rath's New York recitals are among the events of importance in the Metro polls.
 ". ]. Henderson. the music critic of New York Sun. one of the best au- thorities on singing, wrote as follows, concerning Ma. Werrenrath's last re cital in New York:

ARE MANLEss HOMES HAPPY9


 There is a mate for every heart
 That throbs beneath the sun,
 Though some by fate are kept apart
 Till life Is nearly done.
 Where is the loyal heart and hand
 Shall make my life complete?
 God bless my love, on sea or land,
 Until our paths shall meet
 Where three marriageab1e daughters and widowed mother constitute 8 family there are those who believe their manless home must be an ex- ceedingly dreary one Tor them. Sel- dom if ever is that the case. Mothers know the value Of making homes bright and pleasant for their daugn- tens. The girls make the most of the happy times they are having while mother is still with them. Of course, fathers chair is vacant ana they miss him; but they try 10 dispel the shad- ows instead of coaxing them to stay in the home, they do not know what they have missed
 Once upon a time, a family of daughters would have sat down with folded hands and waited patiently for imaginary men to come along. fall in love with them and wed them. It was supposed to be a great misery to have home without a man in it. The girls of today 1augn at such delu- sions. They all like men and haven't t the least objection to marrying some time. But better no man in the home than one who9 would shirgx his share Of Hfe's duty. They have no intention to exchange their maiden glances for "a name, and for a ring,
 Independent girls of these times have no terrors about the poorhouse staring them in the face. even though they are single when they become passe.

ALASKA MINERAL OUTPUT
NEARLY TWENTY MILLIONS

The mineral production for Alaska
in 1913 had a value of $19,413,O94,
according to the United States geo
logical survey. OF this amount,
$15,626,S13 is to be credited to the
gold mines. This makes the total
value of gold production of Alaska,
up to the close of 1913, $22S,392,-
$40. In addition to this nearly $17.-
600, 900 worth of copper and over
So, 900, 900 worth of silver has been
produced in Alaska. The above fig
ures are taken from the advance
chapter of a report issued by the
survey, entitled "The Mineral De-
posits of Alaska and The Mining In
dustry in 1918" bulletin 592-A)
by Alfred H. Brooks.
In addition to presenting the fig
ures on mineral production, this re-
port also summarizes the distribu-
ton and occurrence of the mineral
reposits of Alaska. 1t shows that
gold is very widely distributed in
the territory, that there are a num-
Der of important copper deposits,
and also some valuable coal fields.
This publication Is the first report
issued which overs all of the min
eral deposits of the territory of Alas
ka. 1t presents a summary of the
many reports dealing with this sub
ject in greater detail that have been
issued by the survey. A map ac-
companies the volume, showing the
distribution of the mineral deposits
in the territory.

GYPSUM DEPOSIT IN IOWA

A new gypsum deposit in Iowa is
director of the Iowa geological sur
vey, in bulletin 5SO-E of the United
States geological survey, just issued.
Iowa. has ranked for many years
among the important gypsum-pro-
ducing states. The deposits from
which all the output has come are in
Webster county in the vicinity or
Fort Dodge, where an area OF about
40 square miles may be regarded as
available for gypsum mining. The
gypsum is confined to a bed ranging
in thickness from 10 to 20 feet.
The new deposit recently discov-
cred in the southern part of the
town of Centerville, AppanOOse
sissippian rocks, is of scientific inter
est, but whether the gypsum will
prove to be of economic Importance
has yet to be determined. Prospect
drilling was undertaken by citizens
of Centerville and three holes were
put down, in one of which gypsum
was encountered at a depth of 572
feet. 1t proved to be 10 feet thick
and of fine quality. A shaft was
then sunk and gypsum 10 feet thick
was reached at a depth of 533 feet.

TONOPAH MINING COMPANY'S STATEMENT:
SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS IN SILVER CAMP

Development of the Egyptian vein,
the old workings from the No. 1
shaft of the Tonopah Extension
mine, continues to prove up a very
large body of excellent grade ore,
practically all of which is being
held in reserve, as at present fully
thr%ee-fourths of the supply of ore
for the mill is being sent from the
new No. 2 shaft.
Drifting east on the Egyptian vein
from the big stope is still in prog
ress on a full face of very excellent
grade ore, and the upward extension
of the vein is now being proved by
a raise which has been started from
the stope and is being put up on a
full face of very rich ore, and the
downward extension Of the vein is
being demonstrated by east and west
drifts which are being run from $40
south crosscut under the stope, both
faces of these drifts showing a full
width of very good ore.
All of this work has developed a
very large tonnage of very good ore
and has given a new lease of life to
the old mine.
Jim Butler
The work of retimbering and en-
larging the Wandering Boy shaft OF
the Tonopah Jim Butler mine has
now been commenced, and under
ground work in this section of the
property has been suspended, and
commencing next week the output OF
the mine will be limited to about
100 tons a day from the Desert
Queen shaft.
This restricted output. which
could be greatly increased, is in some
measure due to the fact that the old
Belmont mill at Millers is being re-
modelled and changed over to an all
Shining plant, and while these al
terations are in progress its capacity
will be reduced.
The Desert Queen section of the
Jim Butler mine is steadily develop
ing into an important property, the
work now in progress exposing a
continually increasing tonnage Of
very good ore, especially in the
south vein.-Tonopah Miner.
The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1914-10-10

Compared with the previous re-
port for the quarter ending May 81,
the total net income for this last
quarter shows a decrease of $780,
sos and available show a
decrease of $60,699.
The company is now investing a
considerable amount Of money in the
development of its gold property at
Surf Inlet, B. c., to inspect which
Frederick Bradshaw, the company's
general superintendent, left Tono-
pah on the 2Sth and will there meet
president Clyde A. Heller.
The mine at Tonopah continues
out and a better average grade ore
was milled in September than in the
previous month.
Montana
The new south crosscut started
last week from the 665-foot level of
the Montana-Tonopah mine encoun-
tered a segment of the south vein
this week showing a width of three
feet of ore averaging $50 a ton, esti-
mating silver at SO cents an ounce.
The vein is wider than three feet be-
tween walls, but a portion of it is
only vein formation, which will, how
ever. probably change into ore as
drifting on the vein proceeds.
With this exception there is very
little change in the property. Drift
ing on the Macdonald vein on the
winze below the 756-foot level is still
in progress in low grade ore, and the
slopes on the Macdonald vein contin-
lie to yield a fairly good tonnage OF
good grade mill ore.
The mill is now being worked up
to its usual capacity afte1 various re-
pairs have been made to both the
stamps and cyanide plant, and 1921
tons were treated last week of which
a fair tonnage was drawn from the
Midway mine, where four stamps are
being operated.
Development work is also in prog
ress in the Midway from the 465
and 615-foot levels of the Montana
mine in the expectation that some
new ore bodies will be opened up.
