PROBE INTO /. C. LAND HOLDING
STARTED-LEE ACTS
The Illinois CentraIs 63-yeaT al
legged illegal occupation of ChicagO's
lake front from the river to 51st
street is under investigation by the
rivers and lakes commission. A pre-
liminary hearing to the complaint of
Henry W. Lee, engineer for the
Greater Chicago Federation, was
given yesterday.
''The U. S. supreme court has de-
cided three times that the state can
not grant submerged lands to rail-
roads, declared Lee. '"The court
denies the right of the Illinois Central
to fiIled-in land. It found that the
state never granted the land to the
I. c. and had no power to do is if it
had so wished"
In answering the questions of the
commission the Chiperield and Lang
reports were quoted by Lee to prove
that the I. G. is trying to get away
with a grab on the city's front yard.
"The Chiperf1eld report showed
that the south park board cannot do
what the state itself cannot accom-
plish,' Lee told the commission. 'Al
of the land filled in, comprising about
265 acres, belongs to the state and
the railroads should be compelled to
pay an adequate lease value or get
out.
Cor better, put the I. c. in tunnel
along the lake front and electrify the
road. The present right of way held
by the railroad could be made into a
boulevard and the shore improved.
THE south park bOard-I. c.
scheme contempIates giving the Hi
nois Central railroad 81 acres of sub
merged land, confirming the present
illegal occupation.
Outside of this the board proposes
to fill in the lake for a distance of a

'The legislature a month ago or
dered the attorney general to prose-
cute trespassers on the lake 'front.'
It appears therefore that between this
official and the commission the 1. G.
will be brought to task and Chicago
will shake itself from the grip of the
old man of the sea, which has throt-
tied commerce and pleasure" de-
clared Lee.

AT OPERA HOUSE TONIGHT
Big City Shsw Which Has Been Attrac-
ting Attention.

Whatever the evils of the present
police situation and wrong doing
unveiled by the Rosenthal and Bert.
Sche affairs, the sponsors for with
in the Law are fortunate in having
the scandal develop at this time. A
more timely play under the existing
circumstances could not be imagined,
for the story deals with police op-
preston, disclosed in ITS most brutal
form.
Cropping out from the main story
is a preachment against a capital
that underpays its hirelingS and
forces them into dishonesty. Mr..
WELLER has not hesitated to take
his fling at department store
methods, whereby shop girls are
compelled to stand on their feet nine
hours a day for wage too small to
allow them ordinary necessities.
1t is with theft in big depart
ment store that the action of the
play begins. Mary Turner, unjuStly
convicted of stealing goods, is
sentenced to prison for three years,
but before she starts out on her
term takes occasion to hurl a TRADE
at the stores owner and a VOW
that she will be avenged.
Once out of prison, Mary Turner
is disclosed as a blackmailer and
accomplished confidence worker.
But she always keeps within the
law" by the aid OF skilled attorneys,
one of her associates declaring that
"Habeas Corpus is my lawyers
middle name" Mary's plan of
vengeance is to marry the son Of
the department store man who sent
her to prison, and she finally ac-
comphshed her purpose But when
she goes to the elder Gilder's house
to prevent a burglary planned by
her associates both she and Gider's
son become involved in the murder
of one of the crooks-a stool pigeon
in the employ of the police.
1t will be seen at the Opera House

STAVE MILL FOR HARRISON.
An Enterprise Which Will Work IS Men
TO Come Here Soon.

Messrs. X. NJ. Fellows, K. L.
Crowdus and F. L Maxwell, as a
committee from our Commercial
Club, have about secured a site ana
closed contract with the John kopp
Stave Company for the removal of
their plant from Higden, Ark, to
Harrison, and it is likely that the
:nill may be in active operations in
the next 30 days.
Although its activities will be on
modest lines for a time. employing
perhaps thirty-6ve men, there is a
probability of it expanding to meet
all the necessities of a local plant TO
handle the timbers of Boone. New
t0n and other nearby counties Our
people have little idea of the large
quantities of timber now being
shipped from this point if it were
all worked out in Harrison much
freight and other expenses would be
saved the operators, and this is
what they seem to be looking for
Once the mill is established the op-
erations will be limited only by the
supply of the timber furnished by
the forests within a radius of TWEEN
ty-6ve miles.

MINING NOTES

The Boone county mine, where
operations began but a short time
ago, has begun to ship ore.
The Evening Star, Searcy county,
is cleaning up two tons OF ore per
day now, and a carload of concen-
trates shipped to st. Louis last
week brought extra high price.
The Stortz mines lust north OF
Everton has lots of good zinc and
carbonate in sight The Star can t
understand why such property. as
this is not being worked. The ore
is in sight and apparently plenty OF
it, and within two miles of a ship
ping point, We hope to hear Of this
property soon coming into notice
EVcrtOn Star.
Frank Eberlee, editor of the Amer
ican Lead and Zinc Journal of Jop-
lin, who spent a week looking over
the North Arkansas field recently
says he was greatly surprised at
the opportunity that the field pre-
sents. He predicts a wonderful
growth for it during the next few
years. He says that many mining
men in southwest Missouri think it
is only a silicate and carbonate
field, on account of the heavy pro-
duction of those ores.
!. c. Shepherd, operator of the
Philadelphia and Mcintosh mines
in Rush camp, and Sure Pop on
Water creek, and who is rebuilding
the mill at the Big Hurricane in
Newton county, will build a new
mill at the Big Hurricane after the
old one is put in operation. He
says that he has there the largest
body of milling ore be ever saw ex-
posed. The ore face is uncovered to
a depth of 70 feet and about that
wide. The ground, he thinks, will
average Is per cent mill recovery.
J. T. Chapman, of Joplin, who
built ore mills at the Silver Hollow
and Beulah mines more than ten
years ago, is back in the Arkansas
field this week. He Is ulad 70 see his
predictions that great mines would
be opened up here now being fulfilled,
and he believes that within the
near future this field will be the
equal of any mining field in the
United States. He says many people
in the Joplin field have changed
their minds about north Arkansas
and are realizing the merit OF its
mines.
