producing 5000 horse power, and are
now at work on power project in
the Carlson Creek Basin which, when
completed will add 1000 horse power
to the electrical power production.
The first unit of the ore reduction
plant, which is capable of treating ten
thousand tons of ore daily, is being
rushed to completion, and is expected
to be in full operation on or before
January l, 1916. The first quarter
section of this mill has been in opera
ton since February of this year, and
the showing made is all that was an
tlclpated, both as to quantity of ore
crushed and value saved. The ulti-
mate daily capacity of this company's
plant will be 10000 tons.
The Alaska Juneau Gold Mining
Co., whose moving spirit is f. w.
Bradley, president of the company OBJ
Grating the Treadwell properties and
consulting engineer on the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan mines in Idaho, has
began the erection of an ore reduction
plant of approximately the same ca
pacity as that of the Alaska Gastineau
Mining Co. The Alaska Juneau Com
of rf,s~
supply ore for their mill, is located
in Silver Bow Basin, adjoining those
OF the Alaska Gastineau Mining Co.,
and has been worked continuously on
a smaller scale than that now contem-
plated for the past twenty years,
during the latter part of which time it
was thoroughly tried out as a pros
pective producer for plant such as
is now being arranged for The adit
tunnel for this mine was driven in
1912 and 1913 and is 500 feet i'm
length, entering the ore bodies at a
depth varying from 800 or 900 feet to
1000 feet from the outcrop. The site
of the company's mill lies partly with
in and partly just beyond the north,
east limits of the city. The wharves,
offices and shops are within the city
limits.

THE REAL estate values Oh to"i

the permanency of its resources
and fluctuations in values are govern
ed largely by the development OF the
community and its surrounding ter
ritOry which contributes to It's
growth. There are other Things
which are desirable and necessary fol

matter of course in due time ana

development justifying their pres

and similar things of smaller import
ance which go to make up the city's
welfare as a desirable place for per-
mament abode and for the satisfac-
tory rearing of the coming genera
ton and of these things Juneau at
present possesses a bounteous share.
The thing, then, first in Importance
in considering the permanency of the
land values in city, is the city's
outlook for continued and permanent
material growth, and in this regard
the city of which | write is particu-
larry blessed, being literally surround

of which is as the permanency of

Juneau lies toward the eaSterly end
and in the richest part of a mill

and having a width varying from one
to several miles. This zone, in the
opinion of mining experts from all
parts of the world as expressed on
various occasions. is destined to be,

THIS WEEK WILL
END UP SCHEDULE
Notre Dame Ball Team Has
Three More Games, While
Members of Track Team Will
Take Part in One More Meet.

Varsity athletics at NOtre Dame for
the year 1914-1915 viii be brought to
a close this week Although the an
nual baseball game between the var
stiy and the alumni will probably be
played on the afternoon Of commence
ment day. final competition with out
side schools will end next Saturday.
The track season Will end with the
conference meet at Champaign, Ill.
next Saturday. Notre Dame Will be
represented by several athletes in the
big western games, but Coach ROckne
has not yet announced how many Of
the Hoosiers will compete in them. II
Is probable that he will give out the
list Of men to make the trip today.
Three more baseball games remain
on the NOtre Dame schedule. The
locals will clash with the Michigan
Aggies at Lansing next Thursday and
on Friday and Saturday. they will
meet the University Of Michigan at
Ann ArbOr.
Notre Dame fans are elated at the
showing made by the Hoosier track
team in coping the Indiana state col
Purdue last Saturday. Several Of the
athletes made especially good show
ings.
Bachman. with firsts in both weight
events and fourth in the broad jump.
and Hardy, with firsts in the two
dashes. were the scoring stars for
NOtre Dame.
Voelkers, the South Bend boy. was
one Of the surprises Of the meet. He
took second place in the 440-yard
dash and gave East, the Purdue star
a merry chase. Voelkers has been
running the half mile this season. but
in the state meet he was shifted 10
the quarter and made good.
"Bucky'' Welch was another sur
prise. The big fellow copied seconds
in both of the dash events. Miller,
in the broad jump, and Mills. In the
high Jump, were the other first place
winners for Notre Dame

EVERY TEAM IN
SOUMICH HAS A
CHANCE FOR FLAG
Games So Far Have Been of a
Preliminary Nature Although
the HooSierS, After a Circuit,
Look Good.

While the Southern Michigan league
season is over a month gone, the re
suits so far obtained really have not
esta blished much Of anything as the
games so far can be accounted as of
a preliminary nature. 1t is true that
all games thus far played will count
in the eventual result and the clubs.
with a good start, have an advantage
over their more unfortunate competi-
tors.
But there is little or no advantage
Of any one club over any other in the
league. Less than a half dozen
games separate the first and last clubs
in the percentage column, which
makes it posi- BILE for the entire outfit
of combatants to exchange positions
with each within a week To prove
this. one can take the Jackson club
as an example. When the Vets were
here a week ago they led the league
but their defenses have been battered
SO terrihcally that they are now fiirt-
ing with the cellar position.
Soumich league clubs are supplied
with \ pretty good roster of managers
but ii is doubtful if any of them can
compare with the mayor of the fourth
ward. South Bend looked like a swell
bet for 1915 At the close of last sea
son, not losing sight of the fact that
several holes had to be plugged up
by the loss of Schorr, Stevenson and
Grodick Whether a streak Of good
fortune or clever manipulation. the
return of the latter is a powerful in
fluence to make the South Bend club
the cracking team il is
other changes in the Outfield. in
field and pitching staff have done the
club no harm, but to the contrary
have increased its capacity to a con-
sidera bic extent. sufficiently so to
make them a dangerous contender for
the pennant. There is no question but
what the local public appreciates the
efforts of the owner and management
for what they have done for South
Bend in the baseball line, which I'D
unqueStionably have been done in a
more substantial manner but for the
miserable weather assigned 10 this
territory during the forepart of the
season.
South Bend and the Southern Mich
igan league are not the only ones to
suffer from this direction. Thousands
of dollars have been lost by those in
terested in the game and the suffer-
ing has been universal. Only yester-
day the Milwaukee club of the -Ameri-
can association issued statement
that so far this season between 49,
600 and $4,000 had been lost through
unfavorable weather.
AS a rule the men who invest their
money in baseball are good losers and
seldom yelp no matter how rough the
going. Ed Smith has proven himself
Of this caliber and has established
himself we'll in the hearts of his fell
low citizens, who in turn are going to
help in the nature OF a baseball dav
IN which the entire community can
contribute support. The Chamber of
Commerce has the matter in hand.
and, while June was originally set
aside as a day for that purpose con-
ficting attractions have forced a post
pOnement. the new date TO be an
nounCed shortly.
