Thirty cars Of ore of an average
value of $50 per ton were shipped
during the month of October by
the Chamberlain Ore company,
showing that the physical aspect
of mining in upper Clear Creek is
most encouraging AS many new
operations are being inaugurated
it is expected that this pro-
duction, if not increased. can al
least be maintained during the
winter months. The above does
not include about $50 tons of
zinc Concentrates worth from
SOS to $40 per ton shipped di-
rect to the smelters by Frank
Graham and Stephens brothers.
Mr.. McFadden the genial and
efhcien: manager of the Mid-Colo-
RADIO Mining Company is very
much elated over the returns from
a recent shipment of concentrates
to the local sampler which gave
satisfactory results. showing tina
the mill is giving a very high per

ceived FIVE years lease on the
jose phine mine IN West Argentine
and have put on an increased force.
AS there IS exposed in the differ
ent levels large bodies of heavy
lead ore worth good values in gold
and silver large production is
expected. The mill recently
built to treat the old Slopes and
dumps is running to its full cap

grade of concentrates.
M. Rosenberg is most encour-
aged by recent development on
the 1catia mine. A large body
of concentrating material is now
in evidence and t is expected that
this will become solid as the drift
progresses.

the public. How the life agents soiv-
ed their problem may give others a
hint.
The association was organized with
Harrisburg as the center in March,
1919. 1t had small beginning. but
1t has steadily increased until at the
present time the Harrisburg mem
bership alone is <nirty-one. The
steady increase in the membership in
itself is evidence of the fact that the
association is worth while. 1t has
brought the life insurance men in
close contact with each other, and a
spirit of cooperation and confidence
has been created which is beneficial
to the insurance men and the public
alike. The latter receive their benefit
through the better methods which are
now being employed in the solicitation
of life insurance and in the applica-
ton of the benefits of life insurance
to the community. Perhaps additional
credit can be given to the body OF
insurance men who now comprise the
association when it is remembered
that they are engaged in business
which has heretofore been extremely
competitive in it's methods.
Many of the members could not
afford to advertise in a big way. Their
advertising appropriations were not
sufficient individually either to hire
the services of skilled copy writer's
or to buy space in large quantities.
So they pooled their funds, each con-
tent to take his chances with his fell
lows in procuring his share of the
business created by the joint effort.
The idea is not only new, but 1t is
proving successful The likelihood is
that it will be widely copied.

THE MEXICAN MIDDLE
Carranza's Army
By Frederic ]. Haskin

long cars like sardines in a box, such
of them as could squeeze their way to
the windows grinned cheerfully at the
American MeXicans who gathered to
see them pass. Every Mexican in the
nelghborhood had come to the railroad
station, where they crowded around
the trains as closely as the guard of
American soldiers would permit. The
; interest they showed. however. was
! born merely of curiosity There was
no sympathy manifested with the
cause for which these men were
! fighting.
One large and corpulent American
Mexican stood out in the sun shouting,
Viva Carranza" at the top of his
voice. Occasionally he varied this by
believing: "Quien vive?" and loudly
answering himself "Carranza." He
gathered quite a crowd, who regarded
his performance in the light of an en-
tertainment. Many of the native
MeXicans, more practical-minded,
opened their little stands for the sale
! of candy and fruit. They did a rush
| ing business. When the troops en-
trained at Eagle Pass, each man was
given dollar in American money.
| Ihis was expected to supply him with
food until he reached Douglas. A
good many of those dollars stayed in
! Del Rio. The troops bought popcorn
anu NioChclJd JdCh ike CllllQren at a
country fair.
The Carranza men were not allowed
to get out of their train. Two United
States troopers guarded each door,
but their efforts were chiefly directed
toward keeping the crowd from climb
ing on board. The soldiers bought
their food through the windows.
The CarranZa soldiers ranged in age
all the way from boys of sixteen and
n I1nu cd
tered through the cars were numbers
of boys even younger, but these were
said to belong to the camp-followers
! The average age of the Mexican troops
! was well over thirty. In this they form
J ed a striking contrast to their guard
of United States regulars, most of
whom were still in the twenties. In
| point of appearance. discipline and in
telligence, however, the Americans
were so far above their charges from
across the Rio Grande that comparison
] is hardly possible.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-12-04

1t was a pleasant pastime and con-
ducive to philosophical meditation of
a homely sort. You reflected, for in
stance, as you pounded away in an
effort to keep ahead of the family's
consumptive power so that you might
pause in your labors for a share in the
spoils you, were laying bare; you re-
flected. we say, on the folly of making
the butternut nearly all shell and so
little meat, upon the mistake of nature
in growing so many common hickory
trees and so few shellbarks and upon
the awful greediness of little brother
who always selected the big kernels
easy to pick from the shell and left
the little. hard-to-get pieces for you.
In those days we gathered our own
supply of nuts and ate them in the
kitchen. To-day we buy them at the
grocer's and we eat them around the
dining-room table. Then we ate them
by the half-peck, now by the half
dozen. Maybe the new way is the bet
ter way, but 1t is hard to believe that
any newfangled, hardwood and silver
contrivance will ever enshrine the
memories of the old flatiron that
still stands on the kitchen mantle be-
tween the clock and the candlestick in
the little home just around the corner
on the Road to Yesterday.

MARKET STREET SUBWAY

TN the matter of the proposed new
Market street subway there is prac-
tically no opposition from any
source. This subway has been so OBJ
viously a municipal blunder from the
very beginning that a remedy was
bound to come and the time is now
here to correct the mistake of years
ago.
Through the cooperation of the
city Planning Commission, the City
Council and the authorities of the
Pennsylvania Railroad an agreement
upon plans for an adequate subway
ought TO be a comparatively easy mat
ter within the next few weeks. Under
present conditions the passage under
the railroad is a positive menace to life,
aside from any other consideration.
1t is fortunate that there has not been
more serious accidents at that point
The proposed plan of a subway
similar to the admirable treat
ment of the railroad cross
ing at Mulberry and Second
streets seems to be generally accept
bbAS anu Go Tic COllSGQuGulldl udDl-
ages will be more than equalled by the
resultant benefits to the abutting prop
erty, the early days of the new year
should see the undertaking started.
1t is probable that the existing passage
will facilitate operations and avoid
the delays that would have followed
the construction of an entirely new
subway at that point.
Care must be exercised, of course,
that so important a passage way as
that proposed is designed to meet the
requirements of many years to come
Market street will always be an i'm
portant highway and 1t will be readily
understood that the correction of the
present difficulties will be shaped to
meet conditions "a generation hence.
\ reconstruction of the subway at
Market street will mean improved
trolley service to the Allison Hill dis
frict and Steelton, and will cut down
the cost of drayagc and the delays
resulting from tho present congested
conditions. Tt will also give n better
outlet to the Lebanon Valley.

NUTCRACKERS

A MONG the attractive novelties
~ displayed to catch the eye of the
Christmas shopper is a new kind
of nutcracker. 1t consists of a hard
wood dish with a metal pedestal in the
center and metal hammer of pretty
design completes the outfit. Doubtless
it will decorate the holiday tables of
hundreds of homes, but for general
efficiency, effectiveness and guaranteed
satisfaction it has nothing, absolutely
nothing, on the old-fashioned flatiron,
supplemented by a hammer from
fathers workbench.
Remember it? OF course you do!
It was in the dead of winter. The
winds were tuning up for an all-night
serenade about the chimney tops and
loosely hung windows and shutters
ratified a protesting accompaniment
The kitchen stove was hot to the point
of redness and the family gathered
about basked drowsily within it's tropic
radius. Somebody suggested nuts, and
then it was that the old flatiron came
into its own. We say THE old flatiron,
for, II you remember, tnere was only
one of the half-dozen going to make
up the family ironing kit that mother
would permit to be submitted to the
indignities ordinarily imposed upon an
anvil.
The modus operandi was simple.
You turned it upside down, gripped
the handle firmly between your knees
and exposed its face, marred and
SCARED from many conflicts of nut
and hammer. and went to work. To
be sure, you sometimes pounded your
fingers and wanted to say things that
would have broken up the family gath
ering in a second il you had, and
sometimes the nut, instead of breaking,
simply cracked and closed up again
with a piece of tender flesh chewed
to a blister. on the inside; but withal

NEL RIO. Texas, lies outside the
zone of the bandit war. Lower
down the Rio Grande Valley the
Mexicans do not wander alone
through the unsettled country unless
tired of life. Here they come from
Old Mexico, q mile away, to attend
the moving picture show. Even the
passage of CarranZa's army caused
only mild excitement, though it was
the greatest event of months.
This was the army which was sent
through United States territory to re-
enforce the CarranZa garrison at. Aqua
Prieta, opposite the American town
of Douglas. 1t gave many Americans,
even here on the border, their first
opportunity to see a Mexican army.
The sight was calculated to surprise
any one whose idea of soldiery was
gained in Europe or the United States.
These CarranZa men have proven
again and again that they are high
class irregular troops. The spectators
first thought, however is that they
are very irregular indeed. The only
uniform among the privates is u
whitish and much faded cotton khaki
Comparatively few boast even this.
More common is the blue denim
jumper and overalls which the west
ern American associates with the idea
one form or another of the soft felt
hat. Around the brim of this is a
faded and weatherbeaten ribbon
printed with the name of the wearer's
regiment. For instance "24 Battalion
de Sonora" The faces of these motley
clad privates will satisfy the most
eXacting idea of a soldier. They are
lean and hardened by wind and
weather, keen eyed and savage.
These troops were selected from the
best of Carranza's men, and were
made up chiefly of those with a large
proportion of Indian blood. Many of
them were pure Yaquis. They were
not of the type which the American
is accustomed to think of as Indian.
! Their faces are brown rather than red,
broad and fiat in shape, with q wisp
of coarse black mustache of which the
possessor is apt TO be excessively
proud
The army stood up we'll under the
discomforts of travel. Jammed in the
