has been greatly aided by the assist
ance we have received from the other
states of this country. North Dakota
has done her share and has done it
well. The states and nations Of the
earth have helped in making this the
greatest exposition ever conceived by
man.
What they have done is only small
compared to the brotherhood and sis
terhood which exists between us all.

token of our esteem, l wish to give
to the citizens of your great state this
bronze plaque which is the gift of the

s2,25O,O 900 CAPITAL

The directors of the Rochester
Mines company and the Rochester
Weaver Mining company have voted
20 consolidate, subject to the approx
al of the stockholders, who will meet
within the next two weeks, says the
Reno Gazette. The capital stock
of the Rochester Mines company is
to lie increased from $1,250,000 to
s2,2SO,O 0 and $6S4,000 of the new
stock is to 60 to the stockholders of
the Weaver in exchange for the
property. The remaining $4,000
shares of the new stock, together
with $4,000 shares belonging to the
Rochester Mines company, will re-
main in the treasury. l.. A. Fried
man and w. G.. Pitt control suffi-
cient shares of the Rochester Mines
to carry the consolidation,
it is understood.
The Weaver has four full claims,
and the Rochester three fractional
claims The Rochester Mines COM
pany owns the new Rochester mill,
and is treating more than 100 tons
of ore a day, which capacity is to
be increased soon. The basis of ex-
change is about two shares of Wea-
Yer for one of Rochester Mines.

Described as Greatest Artillery Battle

monoplanes scared so low over us
climbed into the sky to drive away
o taube biplane which was firing
over the hill sidewise in the heavy
wind. The taube took to flight at a
height so great that 1t looked like a
dot in the sky even without glasses
turned on it. Soon the white puffs
of the German aDti-aircraft guns
and the muddier puffs of the Brit
isb sky guns punctuated the sky,
above and below the glittering dots
which were the a~eroplanes cleaning
in the sunlight.
Behind our hill were Belgian peas
ants blowing. Further behind them,
in a meadow, we could see mel.
PLAYING football. l discovered later
that some of the men in the match
were to march five miles that night
and enter the trenches in the mael-
strom of fire which We were behold
ing. l spoke to m of these mel
who told me that he was n of those
who mad been the first to be sent to
the war last August. The umpire
impatiently called time while l
talked to the goal keeper.
At night the glares of the battle
Illuminated the sky of Belgium for
many miles. The tower of the Cloth
hall at Ypres and two church stee-
plee were visible in the rays of the
evening sunset, but many fires were
burning in the town and my glimpse
of the ruins of the burning Cloth hall
tower may have been my last. for
the German shells were falling about

for New York parties. 1t has been
estimated that the new ore body re-
vealed by south drift 524 or the SSu-
foot intermediate level has made
available ore to the gross value of
$2.500,0OO. l think the yield will be
between 100000 and $5.O0O,OOO
gross.
The drift in question has been
advanced in the new ore body a dis
lance of about 220 feet thus far. /
am informed that the average as
says from the face have ranged from
SOS to $3.50 per ton and that at n
point four feet of the vein gave a
return of 1919 per ton. AS no cross
cuts have been run the limits of the
ore BODY have not been determined
but conditions prevailing Justify the
belief that it is a monster. Another
important feature of the develop
ments in the mine is the fact that
in .coYing the contact Of LATHE n
shalc and entering the shale, as
shown by the deepest workings, the
vein did not lose its values. This
is, indeed a significant fact.
"The Atlanta looks particularly
good because the vein is of such
enormous size and is mineralized
throughout. 1t is not a small propo-
sition but a very big M In addi-
tion to the heavy tonnage of ship
ping rock being sent out. the Atlanta
has worlds of Sc and SIS ore. | thinh
that after more drifts are run and
the ore body more extensively proven
up the company will be more than
justified in building on the ground
a reduction plant for the treatment,
of the entire yield of the mine by
concentration and the oil flotation
vroeess."

POSTAL SAVINGS
SYSTEM CHANGED
NEW FEATURES INTRODUCED
FOR BENEFIT OF INTEND
ING DNPOSITORS

An important extension of the
postal savings system. which will
make every person in the United
States ten years old or over eligible
to open an account after July 1, has
been decided upon by the postoffioe
authorities. Under this important
extension of the service persons liv-
ing in communities SO sparsely set
tied as not to justify the designa-
ton of their local postoffice as a
regular postal savings bank will be
permitted to open accounts by mail.
Under the plan adopted by n
postmaster general for opening &C
counts by mail an intending depos-
itor, residing where there is no reg
ularly designated postal savings
bank, will apply to his local post
master, who will that necessary
Identification data are prepared and
forwarded to a nearby post Office au-
tnorized to accept deposits. The
intending depsitor will then be CIV

and subsequent deposits by money

the postmaster at the banking point
for which receipts or certificates
will be issued. He may withdraw
all or any part of his postal savings
by mail on demand, together with
any interest that may be due him.
According to a recent statement
of Postmaster General Burleson,
upward of 100000 depositors now
have deposits in the postal savings
system and they represent almost
every known occupation, from pro-
fessional men to pack peddlers. But
the majority r wage and
of this class the foreign-born large
ly predominant. A census of de-
po~sitors taken by the department
shows that approximately 40 per
cent (2OO,OO0) of the depositors are
foreign-born citizens and they own
more than SO per cent of the depos-
it's. Postal savings receipts have
broken all records the past year.
During the eight months prior to
April 1 there was a net gain in de-
posts of $4,000, 600, as against a
gain of $4,000, 600 for the same
months the year before.

LONDON, May This is the
greatest artillery battle in the his
tory of the world; the expenditure
of ammunition is fabulous" writes
an observer from behind the British
lines at Ypres, describing the fight
ing Of April 25 and 26, which re-
suited in considerable gains for the
Germans.
After describing the almost con-
tinuous cannonading that had been
going on for two days, with literal
" thousands of guns in almost con
tinual action, the observer suggests
that the intensity of the firing may
be judged by the fact hat at n
small bridge across the User 20
German guns fought Is English and
French guns all night until final
ly the German guns were silenced.
The French 75's we're fired so rap
idly hat they sounded like and end
less roll of thunder multiplied by a
thousand.
Touching briefly on the Cana
dams part in the battle, he says:
One of the most notable incidents
of the battle was the work lone
by the Canadian supply column. Not
a cartridge or shell was a second late
in reaching the man behind the gun
and when the black fumes blew
across a section of supply men and
they fell, others rushed in and kept
the fighting line replenished until
the wind blew the fumes away.
During the afternoon two aero

ed and shaped exactly like the Brit
ish aircraft, flew over the German
lines and it was noticed that the
German shells played all about
them without effect. Then they
would fly over the British lines
and back again, but the German
shells always fell far short of bring
ing them down. On their third WIS.,
it the Canadian field battery let
them have several shots. One aero
plane, badly damaged, volplaned
down into the German lines and
the ether fled out of sight behind
the German trenches.

white bursts of %shrapnel, the black
hurst of the German giant guns, or
the teathery floating clouds of an
ti-aircraft shells which broke in the
reverberating dome of the sky,
where both German and English aer-
uplares scared. The old theory that
shooting causes rain was disproved.
Ter the sun shone brightly over the
Understandable scene. The wind was
so strong that the a%eroplanes fac

gun fire.

COMPANY WILL
SOON INSTALL A MILL

At the Carrara Gold Mining COM
pany plant work has been started
tearing out the hillside, just back OF
the blacksmith shop, to make
for the compressor plant. This il
to be set on a level with the pres
ent blacksmith shop floor, and will
operate three drills when complete,
says the Carrara Obelisk.
After the clearing for the COM
pressor plant has been finished,
work will be at once started cutting
a grade down from the dump to the
road, over which a track will be
laid to facilitate moving heavy i'm
plements from the mine to the camp.
This track will be but two or three
hundred feet long and as 1t will run
rather to the side of n Of the small
gulches, will be comparatively easy
to grade in.
The intention of the management
is to install a 10-stamp mill for the
treatment of ore. At first 1t had
been planned rather to run a small
5-stamp mill and run two shifts, but
after the efficiency and practicable
ity of the two plants were consid-
cred. it was realized that the 10
stamp mill would be superior from
every point of view. This will be
run hut one shift, however, until
showings warrant and necessitate
increased capacity.
In the mine conditions are excel
lent, there being two leads Of high
grade now in sight ready to be
worked as soon as the preliminary
work can be finished.

though recent developments have

mine of the Goldfeld Consolidated
Mines company, making perfect the
the ventilation of the Atlanta work
ings. This stope, which is being
broken for a width of fifteen feet,
is yielding ore averaging around $50
per ton. Raise lola. 100 feet

actual underground operations will
be resumed and the exploration o.
