Describes a Bombardment.

Or. Downer described graphically a
bonn ba rdmeut in the war zone and in
detail the actions and nerve of an
Austrian aviator This man was up in
the air near our hospital for about four
hours
He photographed, sketched and tele-
graphed apparently all at one time, and
5000 rounds of shrapnel fired at him
failed to worry him in the least
The bomba rdment lasted for four
days. Several shells exploded around
US. but searchlight was played on the
hospital all during the night. The
river was full of floating. bodies follow
ing the bomba rdment. The fear of
typhus is somewhat abated in hot
weather. but this winter we are look
ing for it again.
The conditions in Serbia now are
very grave. People are starving to
death and 1 heard few days ago that
in a part of Serbia there was only

November 10 we turned over the hos

calls. The box was sealed and sub
merged in tank of water Both tank
and box had glass tops permitting con-

were made at regular intervals.
Whenever the percentage of oxygen
was too low, the inventor released a

Our Radio Service Today.
By. Frederic. ]. Haskin.

One profession that is not over
crowded in the United States is that of
radio operator. The United States is
always in need of competent men for
it's increasing wireless service, and in
case of war it would be difficult mat
ter to. secure enough professional op-
orators for all of the ships and stations.
In that emergency the governments
only resource would be the quarter of
million amateur operators who are
using their own instruments in all
parts of the country with the permis-
sion and under the supervision of the
government service. Many of them are
just bungling beginners, of course, but
there are also a lot of competent op-
orators among them.
The young man enlisting In the ma
tional radio service gets thorough
training with one of the largest and
most varied equipments in the world.
The first of the four years of his term
of enlistment is spent at one OF the
naval electrical schools. which are To-
Gated in New York, Chicago and on
Mare Island near San Francisco. Here
he learns all that the experts can
teach him about all the different varie-
ties of radio apparatus. including the
telefunken, which is the type used by
the German army and by most of the
large commercial services.
In order to enlist in the government
service a man must be able to take die
tation in the Morse code at speed OF
twenty-five words a minute and must
be able to receive twenty words a min
ute. This modest proficiency may be
easily acquired in many technical high
schools. where wireless telegraphy is
feature of the electrical work.
After his year in one of the govern
ment schools. the recruit may be as
signed to duty on either ship or a
land station. and arrangements are
made so that he returns to- the school
for short term every year as long as
he remains in the service. In this
way he keeps in touch with every new
and has every opportunity
to become an all-round wireless man.

GOES TO CLEARWATER.

A. p. Burrows left last Saturday FOR
Iron Mountain, from which place he
will cross the divide into the Clear
water country in this county, where
he has some placer ground that will

get his ground opened up sufficiently
to at least make wages this season
With the preliminary work done, he
viii be able to get started earlier next

of water which he can secure, he
should make good cleanup next year
and for several years.

GEARON GETS CONTROL
OF RE|NDEER-QUEEN
WORKING FORCE is DOUBLED,
QUARTERS BEING ENLARGED
TAKE STOCK OFFERED.

p. r. Gearon of this city, represent
ing eastern people whose names are
mot divulged, has secured control Of
the Reindeer Queen through an, option
on the treasury stock, amounting 70
100000 shares and individual stock
Sufficient to give him almost 100000
shares. The total capital stock of the
company Is 100000 shares. Ii Is I'M
lderstood that the purchase price
agreed upon for the treasury stock Is
/ $35, 900, the first payment upon which
was paid last Saturday at the First
National Bank of Mrllan, amounting
to $4,000, and an equal sum Is to be
ipaid monthly. The individual stock
was optioned on basis Of Is cents
per share, cents to be paid in four
months and the remainder in eight
months. For the present Mr.. Gearon
declines to state who he represents In
the deal beyond saying that they are
eastern people.
Increase Working Force.
| While not stated In the agreement
| 1t is understood that Mr.. Gearon will
have the privilege of shipping ore II
he desires, and he will probably do so,
but no steps are being taken in thar
direction yet. The purpose Is to crowd
development as rapidly as possible,
which means for the present the con-
| tin,,a tt1,, - 4ba drift that iS nnu haino
run. This Is now nearing the Queen
ground. and it Is expected that the nexH
i two or three hundred feet will be In
IPround upon which Is the best surface
showing and where an improved quail
Iity of ore will be found. However, the
last 800 feet has disclosed a quantity
and quality Of ore highly satisfactory.
The working force has been doubled
since the deal was made and two shifts
Iwill be kept at work. Quarters are
being enlarged to accommodate the in
creased force, and bin is being pre-
pared to store the ore removed in the
course of development Frequent
punches of high grade copper are en-
lcountered, and the average Of the ore
shoot is about per cent.
Mr.. Gearon announces that he VIII
take all stock offered on the same
terms as that upon which he secured
control, that is, cents in four months
and 10 cents eight months later. This
deal has created much interest
throughout the district, for the show
ing developed in the property the last
few months justifies the conclusion
that 1t will soon be placed on a pro-
ductive basis, now thar capital Is
available for its development and
equipment.
