AN ANTHONY SHELTER
TO Be BUILT ON SOUND
REPRESENTATIVE VISITS IN DIS
TRlcT TO LEARN AMOUNT OF
POSSIBLE SHIPMENTS.

w. d. Wood, consulting business
manager of the Seattle Smelling COM
pany, was in the city the first of the
week. The company he represents has
only recently been organized and its
purpose is to erect a smelling plant of
small capacity at Anacortes, on the
sound north of Seattle, for the purpose
of treating anthony ores. MIR. Woods
visit to this district was with the view
to determining how much antlmony
ore could probably be secured here
on account of the uncertainty of the
amount of ore available, the initial
plant will be capable of treating only
about 10 tons per day, which will be
enlarged as soon as conditions war.
rant. Mr.. Wood stated that his com
pany would introduce smelling pro-
/ cess which has never been adopted in
this country, but Is used altogether In
France. BY 1t the ore will be sub
jected to excessive heat which will re-
lease the anthony in the form of gas,
when it will be recovered as an oxide.
There is limited market for the OK
ide Mr.. Wood says, but most of it will
be restored to the metallic form.
Uses of Anthony.
The ordinary uses of anthony are
in vulcanizing rubber. enameling iron
ware and in the manufacture of type
and babbitt metal. The war has Gre
ated an abnormal demand and the
price for ordinary grades now ranges
between IS and 40 cents per pound. It
Is used as an alloy in shells and shrap-
mel bullets are said to be about II per
cent anthony. Both France and Eng
land have placed an embargo on anti
mony and the worlds supply now
largely comes from China.
While here Mr.. Wood conferred with
parties who are or will be in position
to ship small lots of antimony ore He
expects to have his smelling plant in
operation in about so days and he will
buy ore that rurA as low as 20 per
cent. According to his estimate ore
that runs from 20 to rs per cent should
net the shipper about $50 per ton. In
addition to this district Mr.. Wood says
/ his plant will secure ore from the
Okanogan district and Alaska

We were under the impression that
the last issue of this paper made very
clear at least one reason which alone is
sufficient to justify the majority in the
council in refusing to confirm Mr.
Beale city attorney. However, the
morning mouthpiece Of the Day inter-
ests processes to be still in the dark
on the subject, and in the issue Of last
Wednesday says that the majority in
the council should either vote for his
confirmation or give valid reason for
their refusal to do So" The selection
of city attorney is a matter in which
the council has equal authority with
the mayor and assumes equal respon-
sibility for the appointment, If the
council is obliged to confirm the may
ors appointments regardless Of the
individual opinion of its members, as
the Press-Times intimates, the law
that requires appointments to be made
by the mayor by and with the consent
of the council" means nothing and the
formality of taking a vote might as
well be dispensed with. But there is
no such obligation resting upon the
council Each member Is responsible
to the people who elected him for his
individual action, and 1t is safe to as
sert that the sinister influence that
surrounds the mayor will not be able
to coerce the majority into confirming
Mr. Beale, AS to the reasons why
they will not confirm him, they are so
plain that 1t seems a waste of space
to reiterate them. Passing all others
for the present, is it not enough when
Mayor Mowery has openly stated that
he would again appoint Mr.. Beale be-
cause Mr.. Walker (Ramsey NJ would
not consent to the appointment OF
any one else? Would the people have
the council become as servile as the
mayor in obeying the dictates OF this
pretentous boss? Again Mr. Beale
was until recently attorney for the
Northwest Light & Water company

was occasion to employ an attorney

IRON MOUNTAIN MINE IS SOLDAT PUBLIC
AUCTION TO FEDERAL CO. FOR $4,000
GREENoueHs BIDDERS PRoPERTY-oTHER
BIDDERS EXPECTED LEss-sToRY Lo-
MOUNTAIN RECALLED

The sale Of the Iron Mountain mine.
on Spring gulch, near Superior, Mont,
at Missoula last Saturday attracted
much interest among mining men in
this district and In Montana. The sale
was the outcome of foreclosure pro-
ceedings brought by the bondholders
of the company. The property was To-
Gated many years ago and was sue
cessfnlly operated, being credited with
dividends amounting to over half a
million dollars. The financial troubles
of the company began when the state
OF Montana passed law requiring all
underground workings to have two
openings to the surface. The Iron
Mountain was originally worked
through shaft, and to sink another
shaft or drive deep tunnel required
an expense that the management did
not feel justified in undertaking, so the
mine was closed down. Later the Iron
Mountain Tunnel company was organ
lied by w. G. Ranft of Missoula, and
the property was purchased by Issuing
the bonds of the company. A tunnel,
over mile in lelgth was driven, a
mill of $50 tons was constructed and
the property has since been active, but
although there is said to be a splendid
showing of ore, II has never been able
to pay off the bonded debt
The Sale.
The sale drew to Missoula quite a
number of representatives Of mining
interests. John P. Gray, Of Occur
d'Alene, was there representing the
Greenoughs; Harry L, Day, president
and manager, and A. Fl. Featherstone,
attorney, were there representing the
Federal company, and there were rep
resentatives of the Anaconda company
and others from the east. Debts and
court costs amounted to $4,000 and
there was evidently an impression that
the property would go at d figure not
much above that amount When the
sale was called Mr.. Gray started the
bidding at $4,000. Mr. Day raised
him $4,000 and so it continued up to
100000. Then Mr.. Gray offered $101,-
600, and Mr.. Day responded with bid
of $4,000, which landed the property
for the Federal company. cash pay
ment of $4,000 was Immediately made
and the balance will be paid upon the
delivery Of the deeds The lively bid
ding of the Occur d'Alene men was
evidently surprise to other prospec-
tive bidders, who expected the prop
erty to go at much less figure and
they did not enter the contest.
Some History.

calls to old residents of the district the

was discovered and located some 26

WHY THE COUNCIL WILL NOT CONFIRM MR.. BEALE

that company is just as eager as the
Day. Walker crowd to have Mr.. Beafe
confirmed, and in view of the negotia
tons over light rates which are still
in progress, the council evidently does
not desire to be dependent upon one
so closely affiliated with the light and
water company for legal advice. Other
reasons might be given in explanation
of the opposition of the majority to the
appointment of Mr.. Beale, but these
two are enough. Now will the Press
Times be equally candid and give the
reasons why Mayor Mowery is so in
sistent upon the appointment of Mr..
Beale?
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1915-07-22

In stating that "Mr. Beale could no
be used II 1t is planned to again jot
the city in a paving DEAL" the Press
Times by implication deliberately
casts gratuitous insult at ]. e. Clyde
city attorney during the former admin
istration and the choice of the major
ity of the present council for that
position His standing as an attorney
and citizen is second to none. and the
cause of Mr.. Beale will not be helped
by statements in any manner reflec-
ting upon him. The most searching
investigation during the city campaign
failed to disclose the slightest evidence
of a job in the paving deal either on
the part of the city attorney or the
mayor and council.

Paintings That Last.

One of the great problems that pre-. sents itself to the modern painter Is to keep his canvas from cracking when it ages. Many of the most prized of the old masterpieces have been marred be- cause their creators did not understand the art of insuring them against time and weathering. A careful investiga- ton of those that have come down in tact shows that in some cases the sheet of paint is remarkably thin, so thin, indeed, that the texture of the canvas can be clearly seen through the face of the picture. Further expert menting shows that the life of a pie ture is inversely proportional to the thickness of its color layers. Canvas contracts with moisture and cold, and paint generally is affected in the same way. If the paint layer is too thick it gives way, and the cracking is the re- suit. All of the old paintings that have come to us uncracked are painted very thin. This was the method of such early masters as Van Dyck, Raphael and his pupils.-Atlanta Constitution.

Simple Air Pressure Test.

Any one can demonstrate the pres sure of the atmosphere by the simple experiment which follows: On the fiat of an iron lay thin sheet of rubber part of an old tobacco pouch will do. Place small. thin lid containing some wadding soaked in spirits of wine on the rubber and ignite the spir- its. Then press wineglass down tightly over the flame. When the flame dies out it will be found that the two articles are firmly united and may be suspended Ey wire, and some time will. clapse before they separate. The explanation is that the flame con- sumes the oxygen in the glass and lowers the pressure when the greater pressure of the atmosphere squeezes the articles tOgether.-Exchange.

Mouths on the BiaS.

"Of course it's nice to have a beau tiful voice, but I'm glad don't sing," said pretty woman as she appiauded after the soprano solo at Broadway restaurant. Yes, I'm fond of music. but that is sufficient. If l could; be tempted to sing, what would happen to my good looks? I think it is not silly for a woman to wish to look well all the time. A woman never looks pretty or beautiful when she sings. She invariably twists her mouth to one side and makes her face appear crook ed. I have keenly observed the last ten singers I have heard, and every one of them opened her mouth on a bias. haven't the slightest idea why they do it unless the muscles of one side of the face are stronger than the other. There is something disturbing about pretty woman, deliberately making herself a fright by stretching her mouth in song."-New York Letter in Pittsburgh Dispatch.
