The total value OF gold, silver.
copper, lead and zinc produced by
deep and placer mines in Montana
in 1913 was somewhat over $5g000,-

1912, over per cent, according to
preliminary estimates of V. c. Heikes
of the United States geological sur
vey. Metal prices were slightly less
than those OF 1912, but there was
also a large decrease in copper yield
and consequently in gold. These
were in part offset by record in

output from zinc ores.
The gold yield decreased nearly Il

There was no great change in the
placer output, but decrease is noted
in gold from copper ores and from
silicious ores. The North Moceasin

IFE means action, from the
cradle to the funeral pile.
The situation into which
we are born and our mental and
physical equipments at birth are
the result of past actions IN
other lives, and all our actions
while here are forming conditions
for lives to come.
There are limitless possible
ties in this life to overcome, what
ever conditions hamper or annoy
us, and to bring into realization
whatever hopes or aspirations
lure us.
We have not begun to sound
the depths in our minds.
The most brilliant, the most
studious. the most reverent, the
most persistent, have only sailed
about the shores of this great
ocean: they have not even mag
ined what deep waters lie beyond,
and what rare pearls lie under
those deep waters
But we have shining examples
of individuals who have achieved
so much under such discouraging
conditions that their lives be-
come an inspiration to all who
mediate upon them.
Lincoln, born in poverty, reared
= in the same hard school, sur
rounded by the commonplace and
the undesirable, and deprived of
all opportunities for advance
ment. made himself a colossal
figure in the eyes of centuries to
come through high thinking,
clean living and the persistent
cultivation of the old immortal
virtues of honesty, truth, cour-
age and unself1shness and devo-
ton to those duties which stood
nearest.
All his thoughts, all his ambi-
tions, all his actions, from child
hood to maturity, were directed
toward the attainment of those
virtues and their practical appli-
cation to every issue which life
presented. Unconsciously to him
self, he was treading the path to
immortal fame; he was building
character which would invite ire
mendous responsibilities and
creating the strength to meet
them grandly.
He knew what life meant.
It meant action. and achieve
ment through growth.
There is no such thing as mac
ton during this life.
We are continually going for

You are either stronger or

A.-Mars was not out of its
scheduled course; the position for
noon each day had been pub

leading governments of the
world, and these predicted posi-
tons were actually assumed by
Mars with the most astonishing
accuracy, a precision so nearly
perfect that the admiration of all
scientific men was ELECTED for the
great mathematicians who per-
formed this wondrous work.
When the sun is at its farth-
est north it is % 1-2 degrees north
of the equator. Then the oppo-
site side of the orbit of the earth,
i. e., the apparent path of the sun
among the stars, is % IL degrees

of Mars is inclined to the orbit of
the earth by l degree 81 minutes,

most unexcusable affairs Of the kind

The official version Of the fasco is
told in the verdict Of the coroner's
jury:
Jasper Collins died as a result of
the partial dislocation Of his neck
and suffocation caused by being hang
ed by the neck.
I'VE desire to add that, in our opin-
ion, sentence Of court was not carried
out, owing to the fact that said Jas
per Collins was not hanged by the
neck until dead. but was. contrary to
sentence of court, cut down by the
executioner before life was extinct.
I'VE further desire to express our
dissatisfaction with the manner in
which the execution was carried out
by the hangman. There should be

Diplomats pointed that to extradite
Costello to the constitutionalists might
be construed as recognition of their
belligerency.
There is no indication that the
Huerta government is intending ask

prisoner in the United States would
permit Costello to escape from his
crimes in Mexico for which he cannot
be tried in this country, for offenses
committed across the Rio Grande.
One way out Of seems for the i'm

him as an undesirable alien. In that
event. Costello probably would fall in
