Imam SHOWS FLASH
Of HIS BILLIARD FORM

NEW YORK. October 3-Melbourne
Inman. champion Of the world at Eng
lish billiards. moved into the lead again
yesterday in his 6.000-point mixed
n:a tch with Willie Hoppe by winning
both afternoon and night blocks Of 500
points at the English game in the grand
ballroom of the Hotel Aston. The
Briton won the matinee session, 601 to
14S, and in the night affair reached the
six-century mark when Hoppe accumu-
lated only 212. This brought the ag-
gregate score up to 3,455 for Inman,
against 3,285 for the American. 1t will
players to reach the 5000 mark. for
neither one can make up the points
that he has lost. Should Hoppe win,
and it is almost certain that he will, in
make up in the 1000 points Of balk-
total will be 1895. ii Inman wins. his
total will be 1855. There is also the
he is beaten in today's blocks. but to
do this he will have to score S31 to
Hopes 1000. and his performance at
the balkline game during the week
does not warrant any such record.
The Briton showed more like cham
pion yesterday than he has at any time
during the series. In the afternoon
session he e. averaged 4oIo15. with high
OF 119 followed in the inning imme-
diately after the break of zoe. In the
night session 1nman topped his best
run of the afternoon by a break of
221. His other best runs were 81 and
70. On the latter break all but ten
were made of the red. His average,
too, was the best that he made for the
series. as 1t counted up to AZ 1914.
Hoppe seemed to be as far at sea as
ever on the huge table. for in the aft
ernoon he averaged only 10 S-14, with
breaks of IS. II and 20. and at night
he averaged 16 Alb, with breaks Of 81,
43 and 20. Hopes chief weakness ap-
peared to be his inability to gauge the
ball just right for the pocket. and he
lost many points by jawing either the
red or the cue ball. His position play
| was just as good as that Of Inman. but
| he could not make 1t count for as much.

INDIANS ENJOY HIGH LIFE

Among the noted guests at the Ho-

and none are enjoying themselves to
greater degree than Chipeta and

hundred-year mark In life. Both are
full blood Ute Indians. Chipeta being
the widow of Chief Ouray, and she
and her brother, being very wealthy,
travel a great deal, and attempt to
enjoy life much as other people. al.
though they are greatly handicapped
by their inability to understand and
speak the English language. They
take an occasional trip to the cities
but the pace Of civilization is too
swift for them and they soon pine
for their primeval home and the

MRS. WOODROW WILSON DEAD

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, wife of the
president of the United States, died
at the White House in Washington
Thursday, August 9Th, at five O'Clock
p. m. of complication of diseases,
chief among them being Bright's dis
ease. Mrs. Wilson has been in de-
clining health for the past four
months, but it was not until a few
days before her death, that the ma
tion was made aware of the serious
ness of her condition. When the fl
nal end came, she was surrounded by
the president and their three daugh-
ters, Miss Margaret Wilson, Mrs. F.
B. Sayre and Mrs. VIM. McAdoo. The
whole nation mourns with the presi-
dent in his hour of bereavement and
affliction. This is the second time
in history that the nation has been
plunged into grief by the death of
the first lady of the land, the other
instance being the wife of President
Benjamin Harrison. Mrs. Wilson was
of true southern stock, having been
born in Rome. Georgia. fifty years
ago. where her remains were taken

LOOKS ENcouRAeINe

Only a confirmed pessimist could
fail to see the encouraging signs of
coming development in Colorado at
this time. While we have suffered
much from internal troubles yet the
state has wonderful recuperative pow
ers and is even now planning some
big things for the immediate future.
In the Grand valley the land owners
are planning to get together on big
drainage proposition and in this way
reclaim some thousands of acres that
are capable of producing large crops
II this were done. The same thing
is true in the San Luis valley where
one of the greatest drainage PROPOSE
tions in all the west is about to be
undertaken. The San Luis valley is
an immense area of beautiful land
and while the drainage proposition
takes in over $4,000 acres still even
that vast area is a small portion OF
the valley. But $4,000 to $4,000 acres
is large body of land and It's rec
lamation will add greatly to the agri-
cultural wealth of this state.
Mining in quite a number Of Sec
tions is looking up and the new
camps are showing up we'll. Consid-
cradle money is being spent on de-
velopment work.
New manufacturing establishments
are being established In several OF
the towns of the state and especi-
ally good reports are coming in from
the canneries and condensery plants
all over Colorado. The crops in many
sections are the best in years and
prospects for good prices are report
ed from everywhere.
1t certainly does look encouraging.

RAISE STARTED
IN YELLOW TIGER

Operations at depth in the prop
erty of the Yellow Tiger Mining Co.,
work on which was resumed several
months ago, after a suspension of
several years, have reached a stage
where results of an important charac-
der the supervision Of Manager Chas.
d. Wilkinson, the development work,
which is being confined for the pres
ent to the 700-foot level, is being Wig
couraging conditions prevail.
The work of cleaning up and re-
pairing the old 600-foot northeast
crosscut on the 700-foot level, which
proved an exceedingly difficult task
in consequence of the fact that the
ground had become very wet from
the water that stood in the workings
for several years, was completed about
ten days ago, and Manager Wilkin-
son thoroughly sampled the north
west and southeast drifts on the big
vein, which measure about sixty and
forty feet, respectively, in length
from the crosscut. Low grade quartz
was found in each face, and Mana
ger Wilkinson is convinced that the
drifts have reached the limits of that
particular shoot of ore in the vein.
To explore the ore body on the dip
of the vein, raise on it has been
started in the north drift near the
crosscut ON six feet of quartz which
averages IS a ton for its entire width.
The showing includes oDe-foot
streak of ore that assays around $40
a ton, much of which is being saved.
To facilitate operations, Manager vii
kinson has recommended to the COM
pany the installation of a four-drill
compressor and necessary machines,
and President Riedel has assured him
that they will be installed in the
near future-Goldfield Nevada News.
This mine was formerly operated

PROSPEROUS CONDITION
OF POTTERY INDUSTRY

Figures just made public by the
United States geological survey show
that the pottery industry was in a
prosperous condition in 1913. All dur
ing the spring and summer and well
into the fall of last year business
was generally reported as unusually
good, and the result was the largest
production in the history of the indus
try. This is believed to be due to
the improved texture, finish, color
and decoration of the American pro-
duct, which now equals, If it does not
surpass, some of the best of the i'm
ported ware.
The value of the pottery products
of the United States in 1913, accord
ing to jefferson Middleton, of the ge-
illogical survey, was $379,92,375, the
largest yet reported, exceeding that
of 1912 by $1,4SS,211. In 1913, as in
value stoneware, which declined
$236,211.
The value of white ware, including
china but excluding sanitary ware,
was s17,490,s71 in 1913, compared
with $17,0O6,736 in 1912, an increase
of $4S4,135. In the value of sanitary
ware and porcelain electrical supplies
is added, the total for 1913 is $751;
443 .45O.
Chinaware showed an increase in
value of $426,755. This product has
increased in value almost steadily
since 1902, the value in 1913. the
highest recorded, being nearly twice
as great as it was eleven years ago.
Red earthenware showed an increase
of $42,259 over 1912, white ware
$237 $3.50, and sanitary ware $312,5S3.
Ohio is the leading pottery pro-
ducing state in the Union, reporting
for 1913 wares valued at $16,519 ,SS9,
or more than 43 per cent Of the total
an increase of $1,011,154. Her prin-
cipal pottery product is white ware.
which constituted nearly GA per cent
Of the value of Ohio's entire pottery
output in 1913. The second in impor-
tance is porcelain electrical supplies.
New Jersey is the second largest pot
terry producing state. In 1913 New
Jersey produced wares valued at SS,-
S3S. .545, or more than 80 per cent of
the total West Virginia is the third
in rank among the pottery-producing
states, reporting for 1913 ware valu-
ed at s3,424,S ,SS7.
The pottery imported into the I'm
tied States In 1913 was valued at s1O,-

nestle production, made a total OF
