PREACHER LAYS
 FALL ID EVE
Says False Charge by Women of His Congregation Unfrocked Him
 and Kept Him From Pupit.

MOUNT VERNON, N. Y., Sept. 13. An alleged quiet fling" with a wom- an member of his congregation, brought Rufus T, Cooper from a $35OO position as a pastor of Meth odist church in Indiana to cell in the Mount Vernon jail today, to an- swer the charge of begging.
 He had only $2.50 in his pockets when arrested.
 Three years ago private detectives followed him to hotel where he was said to have been found with a scan- tily clad member of his congrega- tion. He was expelled from the church.
 Women members of his congrega- tion hired the detectives to watch the pastor.

Ford's Views of Foreign Orders.

Ford's Views of Foreign Orders.
 Conditions in his own business and in his own plant seem to justify Hen ry Ford in this utterance with refer ence to war orders from abroad:
 "I don't want any of the war sup ply money. I will make no war mu- nitions for any country except the United States. I would defend the United States the same as I would build a roof over my own house. But I don't think we will have to defend our country. We are filling an order for the British government for 15,000 ambulances, but don't consider them as instruments of war. They certainly are not destructive" MT. Ford will not even seek to ex- tend his ordinary business in Eng land just now. He thinks that will be taking advantage of English man. ufacturers He is not worrying in regard to the United States pust now as he says: Conditions were never better. There is not one bad spot that I know of and I have heard from them all"
 It does us all good to get breath of such optimism. Ford, of course, doesn't need to take war orders. He would hardly criticize those whose plants would be largely idle without such orders. He is not a little American. Our national right to make and sell munitions of war is not question in the mind of this cap tain of industry.

LAKE OF OIL FOUND
 IN FAR NORTH.

That a whole lake of oil, great flowing natural wells and immense streams of the fluid have been dis covered to the northward of Seward peninsula is the amazing statement brought to Nome by the revenue cut ter Bear, and a statement proven by photographs taken and brought here by the discoverer of what apparently means nothing less than vastly greater find than any gold fields with in the limits of the territory.
 Vanvalin is the name of the dis coverer. He was picked up by the Bear at Wainwright, just south of the place of discovery of the extra ordinary oil lake. The lake is situ- ated between Wainwright and Point Barrow in the extreme north of Alas ka. The photographs taken by Van valin show clearly that the lake of oil is of large extent, than an extra ordinary flow of oil is taking place, and that some of the channels thru which the oil flows have over two feet depth of the fluid. The lake contains oil of very dark color and density. The store has created a sensation at Nome and stampede is sure to result.

sight to last for years and years. The coal shipped before from the surface was not so good as the quality now being mined. The present output is so clean that handling it does not even soil the fingers. It is, there fore, excellent for domestic purposes.
 Captain Herbert was a recent pas senger to the states and stated that he expected to make big shipment of Seldovia coal to Seward on the Ad- miral Farragut.

ZEPPELINS NOW GRAY
 AND ALMOST INVISIBLE.

PARIS, Sept. 13.-Germany's fleet of Zeppelins has been repainted a leaden gray similar to the color of warships which renders them difficult to see, even when flying beneath the clouds.
 A telegram from Zurich, publish ed in the Milan Stampa, says that in Zeppelins appeared in their new dress. The latest models resemble large fish. Both ends taper, so they have lost to some extent the familiar cigar shape.

The eradication of the evil of fraud
ulent mine promotion is something
that can hardly be expected. 1t has
baffled legislators, district attorneys,
and postoffice inspectors. The blue

well meant but humorously ineffect-
I've. The actions Of the postoffice de-
partment in closing the channels of
the mail and Of the department of
Justice in taking chances on convic-
ton where state officials feared to
step In have been the most useful
things that have been done. There is,
however, one relatively easy reform
and an important one namely, a bet
ter attitude Of the newspapers with
regard to their advertising pages. The
newspapers that circulate invitations
to subscribe to shady and suspicious
promotions know that they are aiding

as they know 1t when they are carry

ANTHONY.
Sensational Rise in Price Due to the
Demands Of War.
mining WORLDLY

mining World)
No more sensational rise in price
has been experienced by any of the
metals than has anthony and pres
ent holders of the metal are firm In
their belief that large orders will soon
be placed for ammunition purposes. A
year ago anthony was selling for
about 6S7h cents a pound, and today
special brands are bringing better than
40 cents pound.
The consumption Of anthony for
war purposes In this country and Cam
ada amounts to nearly 700 tons per
month, which Is about equal to the
entire consumption in this country in
times Of peace.
Government statistics for July show
that the imports Of metal and reg
illus during that month amounted to
2,4S9,601 pounds as against S56.653
pounds in July, 1914, an increase Of
nearly 200 per cent. China and Japan
furnish practically all the anthony
that enters the United States and
these countries are also sending large
quantities of anthony metal and
crude ore to England.
The heavy demand for the metal
can be understood when 1t Is known
that In each British 1s-pound shrap-
mel shell there is approximately one
pound Of anthony The shrapnel
bullet Is composed of S21s per cent
lead and ~ per cent anthony, and
total weight of bullets In the British
shell Is close to pounds. The enor-
nous production of shrapnel in this
country and Canada, Including shells
now in course of manufacture. al
ready has reached a total far in ex-
cess Of imports of anthony for last
year Imports then were in excess OF
100000 pounds. However, there
were produced close to $4,000, 900
pounds Of antimonial lead in this
country in 1914. The anthony con-
tent was about 100000 pounds.
Among the large beneiciaries Of the
great rise in the price OF anthony
have been the Chinese and japanese
owners Of the worlds largest anti
nony mines, which are located In
hose two countries. We hear OF one
Chinese mine owner who has been

smote the enemy hip and thigh, and

ere many months the republicans and
Pharisees will separate a few more OF

busy and restore the tariff and put
business on firm and sound basis.

BUYING ZINC ORE.
Contracts Made to Protect smelters
Against Expected Slump.

Engineering and Mining JournaD
A correspondent asks about the new
method Of buying zinc ores that smell
ters are introducing in the west. We
have heard OF no new method. ANY
method of buying any ore must me-
cessarily be the value of the metals
extractable from it less sum that
will pay costs and leave the buyer n
profit This principle is expressable
In variety Of ways. The terms for
ore are, however constantly chang
ing. according as market conditions
change. The only new terms for buy
ing zinc ore that we have heard n
are the fixing Of maximum prices; that
is, the smelter win not pay for zinc
content at anything above cents per
pound. no matter what the spelter
market may be; or he may agree to
pay for only one-third or one half Of
the excess over s cents.
Smelters are adopting such
course In order to avoid being stuck
with a large stock Of high priced ore
when the market collapses, as sooner
Dr. later 1t viii. In view OF the pie
thora Of zinc ore supply they are able
o dictate their own terms. Two or
