CHISANh QUARTZ AND PLACER
 CAMP

R. NJ. Clark, one of the first stam- peders to the Chisana placer district, and who is now operating on clam No. 10 Bonanza creek, is in Cordova. He is very optomistic as to the fu- ture of the camp, which he says has not as yet been thoroughly prospect ed. Mir. Clark came out for the pur- pose of getting a drill and he expects to purchase one from the Harmon Machinery Company.
 Mir Clark says that the prospects in quartz mining. both gold and copper are very encouraging in the Chisana. On No. 9 Bonanza he has traced a ledge of gold for eo"~ hundred feet in a southwesterIy direction and a thousand feet easterly he picked up the ledge again.
 A big body of copper has also been located on the sushanna glacier by Mir. Clark. where he staked two Iedges. and the mineral can be traced for a distance of 26oo feet. The ore has been assayed and runs from 36 to S4 per cent pure copper.

LAKINA MINE I ] SOON SHIP
 COPPER

Ever since J. L. Harper, of Seattle, took a bond on the group of claims owned by the Lakina Copper Company of Spokane in the Kennecott district there have been rumors of big things to be done with that property, and recent developments appear to have justified the rumors. MT. Harper has had a group of men at work for several weeks working out trails and building wagon road from the mine to the railway at Long Lake station, and when that gentleman appeared in person three weeks ago with an ad- ditional force of miners and laborers the activities were materially in- creased Two weeks ago Col. A. NJ. Dewey of Seattle came in, accom- panied by George B. Baker and other Washington capitalist, and it is now reported that the funds for the moving of a large tonnage of ore to the smell ters at Tacoma are assured.
 While prospecting the property on Castle Mountain the miners in the employ of Mr. Harper are said to have oDened mp large body of high grade shipping ore, and this is How being sacked for hauling as soon as road conditions make such movement pos sible. Those familiar with the Ken nccott district freely predict for the Lakinaw Mines a future as bright as that of the Bonanza or Jumbo. MT. Harper is now building a wagon road from the mouth of Mill Creek to the mine on the mountain, from which point the ore will be hauled direct to the rai'Joad without transfer. A camp for the accommodation Of forty men is now being equipped on the mountain side near the mine and overlooking the valley of the Lakina River and the towering peaks of Castle Mountain, Mount Blackburn, Bell Mountain and glaciers, and the majestic heights of several other ranges. All of which spells "acti- vity" for this mining district already made famous by the greatest copper producing mines in America.
 Col. Dewey passed through Cordova yesterday on his way to the outside. To a Times reporter he spoke in the highest terms of what he called "the Harper plan" of mine management. The Colonel is enthusiastic over the ore showing on Castle Mountain, and predicts a bright future for the Laki- | ma Copper mines. These mines are owned by a syndicate of influential men in Seattle and Duluth, for whom Col. Dewey made this trip of in spection, MT. Harper being the local , TpDTeSeHldllNS anu HldHdSSl III Alio ka. Among those interested in the property may be mentioned George E. Baker, owner of much business property in Seattle; J w. and w. J | Kahle owners of the Crescent Manu featuring Company of Seattle; William H. Finck, retired Seattle | jewler, c. F. DesCamp and others. Camp and others.
 The Lakina copper mines consist of a group of claims on which develop | ment work has been under way for several years, but not until J, L. Harper appeared on the scene during [ the present season has anything worth mentioning been accomplished. | The principle ore showing is of native copper bornite and copper glance, all valuable ores as found in this district. The Bonanza and Jumbo mines carried these same ores at the surface.

piece of dance news that win please
every dance fan in Chicago. It's this:
Joan Sawyer, New YoEk's idol, has
consented to- tell you, through the
columns Of The Day Book, how she
does her popular dances!
There!
You have heard of Joan Sawyer.
Her Persian Garden is famed even in
far-off Paris and London. She is the
chief and foremost exponent of pop
UIaP, modern dances in America.
She has. been called 'the dancer
with a soul, and by no less a person
than Jeanette Glider, sister, Of the
famous editor and author, the late
Richard Watson Glider, editor of the
Century Magazine.
Miss Glider is Miss Sawyer's spOn-
sOE.
This is the first time that Miss
Sawyer has consented to pose and
write for a daily newspaper, descFib-
ing her new dance steps.
Joan Sawyer is the most graceful
dancer in New York. She has Great
ed many Of the most popular dances.
She win not fuddle you with in
tricate diagrams and involved figures.
Crisp, carefully worded paragraphs
and clear pictures will convey to you
the chief steps in the one-step, the

,sariIy a professional dance. Smooth
ness Of motion, grace and, above all,
alertness are necessary in this dance,
which portrays the motions Of an
airship in flight.
The waltz step is the basic step in
the aeroplane dance, and, though
there are many wheels" and pivot
steps, the glide and the swaying
movements are the characteristic
steps of the ''aeroplane." The crisis
cross, the double tap, the backward
spiral, the wing and the lame duck
are some Of the steps that tax the
agility and certainty of movement in
the new dance-a shaky, uncertain
step spells failure in the aeroplane
waltz.
From the lame duck, which is
typical step in this dance, to the
sweeping courtesy, with which it
ends, the dance of the aeroplane is
one of the most graceful, as well as
one Of the most original Of the many
new dances.

we solve it, We can if we keep the fight

The Wooster rc-hcaring Committee are

they are anxious TO complete the work.
They lett here last Friday for Bayfield, and
we are told, reheard IS cases Monday and
part of Tuesday, leaving on TUESDAY noon
for Superior, Wis, and they are expected
back in Ashland tobay where they will com-
plete the work. 1t is estimated that be-
tween Is to 80 cases are still to be heard
from this village and as thc@ committee is
not to return, it is undoubtedly these eases
will be heard in Ashland, if at all. 1t is
rumored that an effort will be made to have
them return here and finish their work. /,
is also said that the list as made up by
Wooater last fall will be again gone over
as it is claimed many persons are on the
said roll who should not be and an effort
will be made to show the facts, but whether
it will or will not be taken MP We cannot
saw as we believe it lies with the committee
which we are sure will not allow the over
hauling of the list as made by them last
