TRI-METALLIC NINE HAS
ENTERED SHIPPING CLASS

The Tri-Metallic mine, located q
miles north of Reno in the Antelope
mountains has resumed operations
and today will make a shipment of
ore owe the Observation-Disclosures
goin railway to Reno and thence to
the sampler at Hazen. The Tri-Me-
tallic is not a new mine, something
more than 10 years ago ore valued
at $4,000 having been shipped.
There is a big body of ore on the
property. ONE of it going as high
as $500 a ton, according to Judge
Dewitt Turner. The railroad is ar
ranging to construct a switch from
its main line for the purpose Of
making it convenient to receive the
ore.
When operations were resumed
two weeks ago the men were placed
at work in the second of three tun-
nels which run directly beneath each
ether. A shoot of ore was opened
up seven feet wide, and the men
were then placed at work sinking a
winze into the ore shoot from the
second tunnel, and succeeded in To-
eating it. 1t is now the plan of the
officials of the company to sink a
winze on the ledge from the second
tunnel. They then went to the third
or lower tunnel finding the same
vein. which makes a shoot of 600
feet, going and sever feet in width.
1t has a dip toward the far end of
the lower tunnel and experts say
that it is certain to run all the way
through. The company intends to
become a steady shipper from now
on.-GaZette.

NEVADA DOUGLAS EXPERIMENT

The Rankin = Westlin system of
ere treatment will Dol be tried on
a large scale at the $25O,0Ot plant
of the Nevada-Douglas Con. Copper
company. which is expected to start
about Oct. 1. This process consists
in the treatment of unroasted cop
per sulphide ore with dilute nitric
acid and if necessary some s%ulphuric
acid in a digester under a 10 to 20
pound pressure per squqare inch, at
q temperature of 100 degrees Cen
tigrade. Air is blown through the
digester at the rate of ITO to 135
cubic feet per minute. The process
~dissolves the copper which will be
precipitated by scrap iron or ele'-
trolytically. AS there has been dis
cussion as to the practicability CT
this process, it's operation at the Ne
vada-Douglas plant will be watched
with interest.-Mining and Scien-

tor OF the Ladies home Jour
nal.
Luther Bailey was a small-tOwn
merchant in New York state many
years ago. One of his customers
vent west, leaving an unpaid &C
count of several hundred dollars,
which he promised to pay as soon as
he could. Time went on and still the
debt was unpaid. Finally his debtor
offered his creditor in payment a
piece of vacant real estate he had
acquired in a western city. Mr..
Bailey accepted it because he believ-
ed that half a loaf was better than
none To make a long story short,
this land increased in value with
the growth of the city. Mr.. Bailey,
in time, sold it at a good profit. In
stead of blowing it in," as many
men would have done under similar
circumstances, he saved it and re-
, invested it from time to time, with
the result that in his later years he
was very rich, and when he died his
children were well provided for in
is will.
A young woman in Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, less than three years ago, was
induced by her employers to lay
aside in a savings account at least
two dollars each week, and more as
she could. Today, out of a very
modest salary, she has on deposit in
one institution over $500 on which
she receives interest semi-annually.
She also has a checking account in
another bank. She has a standing
not only with her employers, but
also with her associates in the same
office hat the non-savers do not
have.
Mrs. Harry Carson of Shelbyville,
Ind, is said to have become a half
millionaire with a start in a decid-
eddy feminine BUSINESS of millinery
in that city. Her name was Flora
Joseph, and at thirteen she lost her
father. The orphan started al
pressing and cleaning hats. But
she quickly lost her job because she
had too many ideas of her own
about how her work should be
done. Then she borrowed $25 anC
at an early age, with little or no ex
perience, she invested it in stock
and started a millinery shop in hel
room.
Ten years later, at the age of 2S
she had saved enough to purchase
the largest business block in Shell
byville. Fairly launched now il
real estate, at 80 she was the riches
woman in her own right in the
state, and a few years ago, will
$4,000 to her credit, she married
Mr.. Carson, a wealthy broker. Wha
her fortune is today is not knowr
but If any woman was ever self
made financially. Mrs. Carson cal
claim that distinction.-T. D. Mac

ARTHUR KANE RETURNS
Big Movie Man Is Back on His Old
Stamping Ground.


Arthur Kane, one of the leading
film exchange men in the country, de-
.cided to shake the dust of Broadway
from his shoes for the summer, and is
now enjoying the simple life on a
friends farm north or Topeka.
Mr.. Kane denies that he is looking
over the film situation of the country.
He thinks it has been done to death.
While he expects to visit many ex-
hibitors and exchange men, scores of
whom in all sections of the country
he counts as his friends, he has moth
ing to sell them.
Kane was at one time a Topeka
newspaper man. He was a reporter
on the State Journal and city editor of
the Topeka Capital. Later he was
with Roy Crawford in the show bust
ness and in recent years has held sew
eral important positions with leading
film companies.
In the Moving Picture World, Mr..
Kane is quoted as follows: IT ought
to get the freedom or the city, what
ever that is, or the best cell in town
upon reaching Topeka. That was
per man was done, and things are run
by four former newspaper pals as fol-
lows: Arthur Capper, governor of
Kansas; Jay E. House, mayor of To-
peka; L. L. Kiene, sheriff of Shawnee
county, and Harvey Parsons, chief of
police. Perhaps, also, they might
listen to reason regarding censorship
there"

New Pixies Peak Automobile
Highway Opened This Week.
''Aboye the Clouds" Motor Trips
To Be Popular This Summer.
RAILWAYS ARE BOOSTING IT
Passenger Departments Dis
tributing Colorado Literature.
Other Items of General Interest
in the Traffic World.

Railways which operate between
Kansas points and the Colorado
resorts, namely, the Rock Island,
Union Pacific, Santa Fe, Burlington
and Missouri Pacific, are all furnish
ing prospective tourists with informa-
! ton about the new Pixies Peak auto
| highway.
Several years ago the country was
startled to learn that an automobile
i had ascended to the top of the peak
! over the discarded Cascade wagon
road. In this connection. it is inter
esting to note that Topeka machine
was one of the pioneers in this en-
deavOr. Possibly dozen cars In as
many years have reached the summit
house For several months, however,
big gangs of wOrkmen have been en-
gagged in rejuvenating this highway
and this week the road was opened TO
! all self-propelled vehicles from Colo
RADIO Springs, Manitou or Cascade, to
the highest point on the famous Colo
RADIO peak.
Before the days of the Cog road,
there were two principal routes to the
summit. Both took two days or more
for the round trip One was from Col
orado Springs, via the Seven Lakes,
by burro. The other was by carriage
or horseback over the Cascade trail
And beginning this week, big tour
/ ing cars, small roadsters, racing cars,
/ in fact every manner of automobile,
will be able to ascend this great noun
| tain.
The highway is Il miles in length
and 20 feet wide, attaining an eleva-
ton of 14,1O9 feet above sea level at
the summit. The greater portion or
it is an easy grade of but ten per cent,
or SIS feet to the mile.
Tt is a masterpiece of mountain
road engineering, and was constructed
on the safety first principle, with
wide turnout view stations at many
places en- route. Automobile supply
stations are located at convenient
points.
The highway will be open to all
gas steam or electric vehicles. Ger
tificates will be issued at the summit
to those driving their own cars, GER
tifying that they did so. A large fleet
of new seven and twelve passenger
touring cars will be provided by the
Pixies Peak Automobile company, for
transportation of passengers from
Colorado Springs and Manitou to the
summit and return, leaving on con-
venient morning and afternoon sched-
uleS: also for sunset, sunrise and moon
light trips-five hours being ample
time for the round trip. The moon
/ light trip undoubtedly will be a favor
lite for the young honeymoon couple,
I or the sentimental young man or
woman.
Motoring into and above the clouds
to the top of Americas most famous
mountain will be pleasure ride de
a scenic trip unequaled elsewhere on

BETTER STOCK FOR FARMERS.
Railroad Cooperating With Breeders
Along This Line.

Through the efforts of the live
stock and agricultural department of
the Nashville, Chattanooga & ST. Louis
railway there has been placed with
the farmers in the several counties
along its lines within the past three
years more than $500 head of pure
bred live stock. This has been &C
complished through the cooperation
of prominent breeders, the road fur
nishing cheap rates to farmers desir-
ing to take advantage of these sales
and also reduced freight rates for the
movement of cattle from place of sale
to the purchasers home.
This fall several sales have been
planned for the introduction of Short
horn and Aberdeen-AnguS breeds, and
consignments will be offered from the
American Shorthorn Breeders asso-
citation and the American Aberdeen
Angus association. These sales in the
past have created considerable inter-
est among the farmers who realize the
benefits that will come to them
through the Introduction of pure-bred
live stock and improved farm condi-
lions, along which line the railroad
has done, and is doing, a great work.
