MINING EFFICIENCY.
How Leaks Were Stopped in the Calu-
met and Hecla.

About the time the Calumet & Hccla
began to experiment with the one
man" drill, it also undertook some
deficiency work." that is, investiga-
tons to determine how the time was
used in machine drilling. For this
work the services of a large number
of mining school students and young
graduates were engaged. 1t was de-
sired to ascertain the amount Of time
occupied in setting up and tearing
down machines, in changing steel ana
in extracting stuck steel, etc, which
is regarded as unproductivc time. In
order to get fair averages, the tests
were made to extend over n long per-
iod of time under different conditions
and with different men.
As consequence, unproduct1Ve
work in drilling was largely reduced
with resulting profit to both men and
company. The compilation of the val
liable data obtained was the means OF
introducing improvements and eco
Monies in many ways.
As a concrete instance, it was found
that a large amount of time was lost
in changing steel, this for the reason
that the miner got his drills mixed
When sharp steel was brought to hin
in the morning, it was thrown dowr
behind his machine, and when he took
out his dull steel he threw 1t doWr
with the rest, and then had to paw
over all the dull and sharp steel wher
he wanted the next size. This con-
sured both time and energy, and i
was soon demonstrated to be better
to set the steel up in order at the sid'
of the drift near the machine, where
it was easily visible and accessible.

One Man Burned to Death and An:
l. other Drowned During
I :; Saturdays Gale

People who arrived at this port
from the lower river this morning re-
port that two men LOST their lives
during the storm Saturday, one by
being burned to Geath and another by
drowning.
During the early part of the day a
tugboat with several oyster vessels
in tow passed this city On the Wy
clown the river. After the tow had
proceeded some distance d member
of the crew of one of the oyster
boats attempted to start fire IN a
gasoline stove when the vessel was
careened by the wind, causing the
man to oveIturn she can containing
the infammable liquid. The contents
were ignited an spread over the
mans clothing, burning him to death
Another man employed on the boat
was washed overheard and drowned
AT the same time.
The parties who reported these
disasters could not give the name OF
the vessel nor the names Of the un-
fortunate men.
So far as can be learned, no serlou:
damage was caused to shipping by
the high wines of Saturday. Most
of the vessels employed on the river
had anchored or sought shelter. anc
they rode out the fury of the tempest

asnss q Direction.


The apparently marvellous way ID
which Indians, EskimOs and othei
primitive people make their wa!
through forests. snow covered areas OF
other regions which have little to indi
cate direction to white newcomers has
led to a widespread belief that they
possess q mysterious sixth sense OF d.
rection. vilhjalmur Stefansson. the
arctic traveller, who has lived much
with Eskimos, is very skeptical about
the existence Of any superiority OF
sense of direction among primitive PEG
pies of any kind and gives strong evil
dence from personal experience that
Eskimos have no such superiority. The
ability Of Indians and others to find
their way he attributes solely to their
familiarity with the country through
which they are travelling. They note
many things that they have seen be-
fore and that have no significance to
the stranger In their land. White men
can and do acquire the same ability to
find their way when they have learned
to know q country. When the land IS
equally strange to the white man and
the Indian or Eskimo. the white man
because Of his better developed reason
ing power. is more likely to have a cor
rect idea of direction than the Eskimo

Thu Literal Mind.

Man is never literal In the expression
of his ideas except in matters most
trivial. Very often mans words are
not language at all, hut merely vo'
cal gesture Of the dumb. They may
indicate, but do not express, his
thoughts. The more vital his thoughts
the more have his words to be explain
ed by the context Of his life. Those
who seek to know his meaning by the
aid Of the dictionary only technically
reach the house, for they are stopped
by the outside wall and find no ell
trance to the hall. This is the reason
why the teachings Of our greatest
prophets give rise to endless disputa
tons when we try to understand then
by following their words and not by
realizing them In our own lives. The
men who are cursed with the gift OF
the literal mind are the unfortunate
ones who are always busy with theil
nets and neglect the fshing.-"Sad
