To make the triumphant lover nay

and deadlieet punishment which law
or vengeance can effect.
Time was, in days of. chivalry. when
the man who won a womans love
away from its legal possessor was
forced to defend his conquest at the
point Of the sword or at the mouth
of a pistol.

Total Mine Shipments.

The total mine shipments of uranium
figures, We're equal to 2.14O tons of dry
ore, carrying an equivalent of thirty
eight tons of uranium oxide. The vana-
dunn in carnotite ores shipped, together
with that which is estimated to have
been produced from the Newmire district,
was equivalent to 91i tons of vanadium
oxide. These quantities are equal to
about 32.3 tons OF metallic uranium and
412 tons of metallic vanadiun.
The bureau of mines has determined
that carnotite carries about 80 per cent or
even a little more of the theoretical guam
tity of radium in equilibrium with ura-
mum. which is equal to about one gram
in 1900 kilograms of uranium. Assuming
that 80 per cent of the radium is recov-
cradle. this would give in the output of
1913 an equivalent of about $40 grams of
metallic radium. or 1910 grams of by
drous radium bromide. worth. at $120 a

tite ores sold was about $4,000. which
represents the uranium value only as

and the-figures for these receipts are not
