THE STOP WATCH.
Law Would Prevent Using It In Tim
ing Workinamen.
Engineering and Mining journal

Engineering and Mining Journal
Two preposterous bills, one intro
duced by Mr. Taverner, of Illinois,
and the other by Mr. Van Dyek, of
Minnesota, make 1t unlawful for any
government officer to use stop watch
or make a time study of the job of
any employee. The preamble of Mr..
! Tavenner's bill is worthy of record on
this page:
Whereas a stop watch is used in
timing workmen while at work to as
certain the maximum amount of work
possible for the most capable msn in
q given time and making this the
standard time" in which work must
be done, and by a system of premiums
and bonuses. together with disciplin-
airy measures sufficiently severe to en-
force the system, this standard time"
is the speed to which all workmen
must eventually attain If they are to
retain their employment; and
Whereas, experience has shown
exceptional celebrity performs about
twice the work performed by the
manual worker of other countries, with
the concomitant condition that the
ratio of accidents here is from three
to four times as high as in other
countries; and the tendency of So
called scientific management"
through the above timing and bonus
features will be to further aggravate
the accident disabilities and mortality
aforesaid and reduce the workmen to
a mere mechanical, instead of social
and moral, relation to his work, and,
moreover, are unnecessary to secure
adequate efficiency of labor; and
Whereas, by stop watch time
study you may be able to determine
the time in which piece of work
can be done, but you do not thereby
determine the time in which it ought
to be DONE"
Therefore, the stop watch must not
be used. Verify many members of
congress must have a hard time in
running the gauntlet between the fool
killer and the walking delegate, the
incarnation of whom is one Samuel
Gompers sitting threatingly in Wash
ington.

CANCER EDUCATION.
Warning Against Quack Remedies
That Guarantee a Cure.
(Kansas City Star,

(Kansas City Starr
The health department of the state
of New York has begun a campaign of
education about cancer and the danger
of listening to the statements of can
Ger quacks who advertise to cure it.
The following is given by the depart
ment as the latest verdict of medical
science on the subject:
Nothing can be done to prevent
cancer except to avoid certain speci-
fed causes of local irritation that Of
ten cause cancer. A large percentage
of cancers may be cured If taken in
time, but the only cure is surgical re-
moval of the cancerous growth at the
earliest possible moment.
Look with suspicion upon every
growth that occurs and that fails to
respond to ordinary curative agents,
and, to make sure, have it removed
at once by surgeon. Never have
any dealings with any person who ad =
vertises that he can cure cancer by
any other means than cutting it out"
The Star has had occasion recently
to print several editorials on the ne
cessity of prompt removal of cancer by
an operation Cor in certain cases by
x-rays or radium). Every such edi-
torial evokes letters from cancer VIC
Tins who hope they are being helped
by some so-called medicinal cure"
Such letters emphasize the need for
educational campaigns like that now
being conducted by the New York
health department.

DIAMOND DRILL HOLE
ALASKA HOLDS RECORD
DEPTH OF 1900 FEET ATTAINED
AND PROBABLY WILL
GO FURTHER.

The diamond drill hole started by
the Alaska Gold Belt company, near
Juneau, Alaska has reached a depth
of little over 1900 feet and will be
continued.
This drilling has been done to pierce
the main ore body of the property,
known locally as the Gould and Curry.
The drill hole is now In ore and IL
possible another 100 feet will be
drilled. The work Is being done I'M
der the supervision of A. B. Dodd for
Lynch Bros, the contractors.
Regarding the work, Mr.. Dodd says;
Requires Much Power.
Some idea of the work of drilling
at this depth may be gained when 1t
is realized that we are turning a sin
gle rod of steel longer than from the
postotfice to the Juneau general hos
pital. This rod is perfectly smooth
on the outside and rests on the bot
tom of the hole the entire way, caus-
ing an immense amount of friction
which must lie overcome The rod Is
kept creased heavily at all times, and
could not be turned otherwise.
I'VE are using 1876 pounds of air, or
enough to run air drills, to operate
the drilling machine. We will b
forced to stop before we run another
100 feet, but I believe we will have
what we want before that time.
Several years ago the Treadwell
company drilled horizontal hole for
1900 feet and forced to quit. For years
this stood as a record for Alaska, but
we have beaten that figure some. The
men working the drills operate, or
drill for about hours, and 1t then
takes them about the same length of
time to change the bit. The drilling
rod Is jolnted in S-foot lengths, ana
every inch of 1t has to be pulled from
the hole to reach the bit. After the
bit is changed, the rod has to be con-
nected and all put back again.
Difficulties to Overcome.
Extra care must be exercised to
keep the drill from freezing In the
hole. Water is forced through the
center of the rod to the bit and keeps
the slime washed back, but If the wa
ter leaks through the joints or for
some reason becomes blocked and does
not reach the bit, 1t will freeze in 80
seconds. When a bit freezes 1t be-
comes so hot that it fuses with the
rock and then has to be either ex-
tracted with the fishing tools or drill
ed out. We have had two or three
fishing jobs since we started work, and
in one case had to drill out a steel bit
which we could not fish out. Forum
ately we were able to get it out short
ly before we had drilled to the dia-
monds and were able to save them,
which saved us about $500, as that is
the value of the diamonds in the bit
of diamond drill"

ZINC IN MIDDLE WEST
VALUE EXCEEDS COPPER
JACK" Is MONARCH OF MINER.
AIS IN MISSOURI AND 9TH.
Err STATES.

For many years the value of the
copper mined in the central states has
exceeded that of zinc, frequently by
millions of dollars, owing entirely to
the greater value of the copper, for the
quantity of zine produced has been
| larger. Under the stimulus of extraor-
binary prices for both copper and zinc
in 1915 the mine output of copper in
the central states increased 50,650 tons
and that of zinc 1857 tons. The value
of the copper produced increased from
| increase, but not sufficient to retain its
prominence, for the value of the re-
coverable zine jumped from $17,139,-
264 in 1914 to $53,540,47 in 1915,
Jack" thus running $7O00,OOO ahead
of copper. Under ordinary conditions
| the production of 222. 54S tons o. lead,
valued at $20,919,512, an increase of
1903 tons in quantity and of $5,000,-
600 in value, would have attracted
considerable attention. An increase in
value of one third is unusual but it
appears small compared with that of
either zinc or copper.
The production of silver in the CEN
trail states is always relatively unim-
portant. The output in 1915 amount
ed to 647,55 ounces, valued at $685.
300, of which $685. 1913 ounces was de-
rived from copper mines in Michigan.
The total value of the silver, copper,
lead and zinc mined in the central
states increased from $55, iii, 1906 in
1914, to $121,2S3,262 in 1915, or about
1870 per cent.
The high price of copper in 1915
benefited few companies or indivld-
uals except those interested in the
comparatively small number of mines
In the Lake Superior district in Mich
igan, for that state produced nearly all
the copper credited to the central
states. Missouri reported 400, 100
pounds of copper, which was derived
mainly from the dressing of lead con-
centrates.
Lead Mining Profitab BILE.
The average selling price of lead
was less than a cent a pound more in
1915 than it was in 1914, so that lead
mining was more profitable chiefly for
the five or six large companies having
mines in the disseminated lead re-
gion in southeastern Missouri, which
produced SS per cent of the output of
the central states The increase in the
average price did not stimulate lead
mining in other regions, as the only
other notably increased output was
due to more extensive mining of the
sheet ground in the Joplin region,
which carries considerable lead. In
1915, however, the smelters desired
high grade zinc concentrates free or
nearly free from lead. Such concen-
trates were purchased at a base price
much higher than that paid for con-
centrates containing over l per cent of
lead. Moreover, high grade zinc con-
centrates frequently sold for more
than double the price paid for galena
concentrates, SO that owners of sheet
ground and soft ground had no reason
to rejoice over the lead content of
their ore.
The largely increased and high price

boom in nearly all districts. The pro-
fits of the big operators were abnorm

in the general prosperity. Miners

New Reduction Works.
The salient facts relating to zinc
and lead mining in the central states
in 1915 were the building of new mills
and roasting and separating plants in
the WISCONSIN Illinois region, the in
creased output and better recovery
made by flotation in the disseminat-
ed lead district in Missouri; the more
general use of thckeners, elassihers
and tables and the vastly larger yield
from the sheet ground in southwestern
Missouri; the development of the new
mining territory near Picher and Car
din, in the north Miami field in Okla
Eoma; and the active prospecting and
mill building and the large increase
in shipments of zinc carbonate in
Arkansas.
The final figures showing silver,
copper, lead and zinc mined in the
central states in 1915 are given by
states and by regions in a report pre-
pared by j. p. Dunlop, a copy of which

WANT MORE MARINES.
Plenty of Recruits, But Congress Must
Authorize Increase.


The scarcity of marines in the Uni
ted States is making itself felt just
now when demands are being made
on the marine corps for more men to
guard the navy yards and naval sta
tons.
About so per cent of the U. S. mar
ines are in service aboard ship or on
foreign stations, and less than 1000
are available for navy yard duty In
the United States.
Because of the attractiyeness of its
service the marine corps has little
difficulty in procuring recruits, and its
ranks are kept filed to overlooking
nearly all the time. but the authorized
strength of the corps is only $40 of
ficers and 1921 men. Congress has
been asked to increase this strength
by 5000 men and officers.

ment, but Curley will vouch for it, and to back up his claim points proudly to the fact, in a letter just received from him, that he never told anything but the truth in his life.
 Just wait until you get chance to see our circus this year and you will swear that you never Saw anything that ever approached it." Jack writes, showing that he is all swelied up over his new job
 You see, we've got a man at the head of this organization who isn' { afraid to spend a world of money to make it the best. His name is Harry Tammen ard he is absolutely in con trol. The circus is a mere pet of his and not run as a money making prop osition. It's a millionaire plaything.
 "To give you an idea of how much he thinks of his circus and his people, he laid out an expenditure of $S0,Coo last winter for entire new equipment. This included new canvas. every yard Of it being brand new. There isn't a rope in the whole outfit everything being handled by steel cables. Not an inch of the canvas ever touches the ground. as there is a system of giant sDools on which the canvas is wound after the circus is through in town. Everything is done with donkey en- zines and big steam tractors~ so that the lowly horse now is used only in the street parades and for show pur- poses under the canvas. The horse no longer has to drag the heavy wagons. The tractors do that
 Thus does Jack rave about his cir GUS. but the main point with Jack is the big athletic feature that he is so deeply interested in. The Sells-Floto circus now has under contract two worlds champions. Jess Willard. boss boxer of them all, and an aggregation of all-star athletes. amongst them Yusiuf Hussane, the Turkish Bone Crusher. and one of the foremost catch as -catch-can wrestlers in the world Gotch. who was with the show, Is laid up for repairs. and Hussane or fers the same sum for anyone to stay fifteen minutes with him on the mat. Also with the show are other famous fellows of mat and ring that the ath- Ietic bugs should be glad to see. Then there are Jack Curlev and Tom Jones, partners in the mar lgement of Willard, who are a whole show in themselves.
