discovered that fully 100000
Americans are facing the rigors Of
winter and empty larders, through

a special study in themselves.
Whether strikes, industrial depres-
sion, or shiftlessness are to be blam-
ed the human problem of relief

prominent men who are studying the
problem for the City of New York
headed by Judge f. H. Gary, are
making every effort to get at the
causes and to formulate a campaign

bureau has been opened, to bring the
employers and the jobless together.
Two hundred women, wives of en-
ployers, have pledged themselves to
aid the jobless during the winter.

is consulting engineer for the Jumbo
Extension and other prominent min
ing companies here, holds a similar
position with this company.
=. j. W., st. Helena, Cal. - I
would like to get some information
with regard to the Great Bend An
mex Mining company. I heard that
it had been sold for taxes. 1 own a
block of stock in that company. Is it
a total loss or is there a chance for
the stock to make good in whole or
in part?
Answer-The ground of the Great
Bend Annex Mining company was
sold for debt and the company is
apparently out of existence, so far
as owning any property is concern
ed. The company's property was
purchased by the late DR.. f. A..
Wheeler. who was killed in an auto.
mobile accident near here last year.
and title to the ground is vested in
mis- estate. The stock of the old
company. therefore, would appear
to be worthless.

STAR MINE
NOW PRODUCING
ING LEAD-ZINC ORES TO
SHELTERS

The old Polar Star mine, located
six miles south of Wells. near Warm
creek, is becoming a heavy produc-
err of lead-zinc ores, and gives every
promise of developing into the most
important industry in eastern Ne
vada.
Nov. 1 last year b. F. Woodward
and sons of Salt Lake City took a
lease and bond on the Polar Star
property and claims adjoining the
Polar Star group we're secured. These
These claims adjoin the Polar Star
on the south and the whole has
been incorporated under the name
of the Glover Mining company. The
lease and bond was then turned Ove
to the Glover company and a force
Of men was kept busy during the
winter months opening up and de
veloping the property, during which
time they extracted a shipment of
the lead-zinc Ore This r was
shipped to the smelters on Feb. / of
this year, and since that time five
carloads of the ore have been mar
keted, the 225 tons netting the COM
pany about $4,000.
B. F. Woodward, manager of the
Glover Mining company, reports
that he has this lead-Zinc ore opened
up on the surface for 200 feet in
width and 600 feet in length, and
that he has sunk about 80 holes from
so to 100 feet apart in this coping.
Each and every foot of these holes
discloses zinc ore that will assay
from 1 to AZ per cent.
Fifteen men are now employed by
the Glover company, and Mr.. Wood
ward states that he will ship several
carloads each month in the future.
The loading station is Tobar on the
Western Pacific, to which point the
ore is transported by teams, the dis
lance being IS miles.
The Tobar Mining company prop
erty adjoins the Polar Star on the
north and west, and from the new
claims it is expected that zinc ores
will be shipped in the near future

like a report On the Nevada Empress
Gold Mines company, which, l under
stand, has passed into the hands of
the Nevada Cooperative Mines COM
pany. Any information you can give
will be appreciated.
Answer-The property of the Ne

pany, on time payments. At present
the sum of about $4,000 remains to

as the condition of the roads will
permit of hauling to the property the
stores and supplies required. The
property is regarded as a valuable
one, the product of which can be

marriage was one OF sweet SIM
plioity. The bride looked her
very prettiest in costume OF
black and white with a large
black hat. This romance is one
of long standing and the news of

Tho death Of Sire. Leila Miley,
the wife Of Alr. w. H. Miley, oi

prime Of vigorous womsnhood,
from the cares Of nor loved ones,
