"Sometimes at sixty. even at eira-

gaily through the sands. over the

NAV run low and the water give out,
he'll curse a little now and then, yet
his heart never really wearies Of the
quest of the lucky ledge. II is this

4. \. FATALITIES CONTINUE
At MEN Mark IN Tine y. ..

II the railroads. of the United
States had paid 10000, the maxi
mum amount fixed by law.as damage
for death, for every life lost ON their
lines In the year which ended June
30 last, they would have paid ti0l,-
$50, 900. The records Of the inter-
state commerce commission show
that the year just ended there were
1O.l5O killed ON railroads in the
United States and more than 100,-
900 persons were injured during the
same period.
The figures as to the number kill
ed and injured are official and they
indicate that the railroads are more
deadly than war.
More than 100000 persons have
been killed on American railroads
during the last twenty five years and
more than 100000 injured. Figure
that out and see what it means to
families left dependent, bereaved and
their futures charged TO insurance
companies aud to the railroads them
selves, and you will not wonder that
the Interstate commerce commission
Is taking the matter seriously.
While the efforts Of the commits
sion have brought about some i'm
provement il is only slight, an for
the fiscal year which ended June 81.
1913, 1864 were killed. 8l4 more
than las: year.
1.-THE ravages Of war pale into in
significance before these silent indi-
cations Of the destruction Of human
life accompanying the peaceful oper-
atoms of our railroads." said a CON-
mission official.
The cause Of death and injury are
legion. They include derailments,
collisions, boiler explosions, miscel-
laneous train accidents and indus
trial accidents to employees. The
li.rger percentage OF killed and in
jared are numbered among en-
ployes. According to figures that
have been compiled by the commits
sion, for the period from 1907 down
to date the property loss due to
wrecks, etc, amounted to over $751;
100000.
"There is dreary mOnotOny in
the sameness of the reported causes
of these accidents" says a report Of
the commission. "Year after year
deraiments and collisions due to
ia -htical causes are reported"

LIFE OF A PR0sPEcT0R
As TOLD Dv OLD VETERAN

"To the mining prospector is due
the building of many large cities with
palaiial homes and huge skyscrapers
and the support Of thousands Of mil
lionaires.
while the mining page Of the daily
newspaper devotes columns to the
work of men in charge of under
ground development or above ground
construction as well as to the diff
eulties and successes Of financiers
at the Broad street end of the game,
no one ever seems to think OF the
poor devil who made all the mining
stock quotations possible. The pros
pectors who methodically sharpens
stick and jabs into the rump OF the
little burro, thereby starts the curb
market letter." said John W. Blu

"As a rule he is a man in whom the

ago, relied for their workers on old
country men, the gray-haired Cousin
Jacks Now Austrians and Italians

docile and soon learn to drive a drill
almost to as good effect as their
passing predecessors from Cornwall
and Wales. But the tramp miner with
the hurry up you dollar spirit only
hangs to his job until grubstake is
accumulated. While the snow hes
on the hillsides he can do himself
little good looking for float or out
crops. Underground drifts are warm
and grub can be safely counted upon
in the 'Mulligan' twice a day, so
from November until April the pros
hector may condescend to sccept a
company's pay check.
"With the suns melting rays send

key and ice cream dinner. This time
the scene was under the trees at the

Of their friends and neighbors and
showed them a perfectly royal time.
The dinner was perfect and the
amount of ice cream and lemonade
consumed was almost unbelievable.

Everything is in the finest possible
condition and called forth expires
sions Of admiration from the ladies'.
On Monday, August 10, there will
be dance at the school house. The
dance had been planned for Miss
Hazel Wykoff. II was learned that
the birthdays of Miss Kate Porcher
and Messrs. II. X. aud John Lucas
were the beginning of the week, SO
il was decided to give the dance in
honor of the four popular young
folks.
About thirty five persons attended
the community social held at Mrs.
Danse's last Thursday evening. The
Deming Ice & Electric Co. having
failed to send the ice for ice cream,
lemonade was substituted. There
was great merriment when refresh
ments were served. Messrs. Frank
Kimball, DR.. Hollinshead, Charles
Mckee and Harry Finney had baked
the cakes, which were not only fine
to look at, but good eating, believe
me. Each man served his own cake.
Mrs. Cash Rambo brought cookies
which were so tempting that they
disappeared early in the evening.
We were delighted to have with US
Mrs. Colt and son Harlan and Thorn
