We Have Saved 500

Years ago, John w. Bate, the eff
cheney engineeer, was brought to this
organization.
As an efficiency genius he stands at
the top in the Woodworking lines.
He has built here a model efficiency
plant. He has equipped it with thou
sands of time-saving machines. Now 1t
represents an investment of S., 100000.
He has, in this way, cut our factory
costs in two. We are building the
Mitchell for less than a like car would
cost anywhere else in the world.
And all of our extras - beauties,
lUxuries and conveniences-are paid for
through factory savings.

If you saw this Mid-Year
Mitchell without knowing the
facts, you would say that such
car at our price is impossible. For
It undersells any other car of its
size and power and grade.
Then you might say when

a right conception.

John ". Bates work now seems
done. He says he has reached his limit.
in the factory and the car. He would
never permit us to mention his efforts
until they reached this completion.
With all these things together, the
Mid-Year Mitchell is an interesting
sight. No motor car lover should miss
It. 1t has all that men know to make
car handsome, enduring and complets.
Your Mitchell dealer will show you

Go see this model. Then ride in it,

U. s. 10 PURCHASE
 THE DANISH INDIES
COMPLETE NEGOTIATIONS OF 4 TREATY.

Washis -Of1cial announcement was made at the White House that negotiations have practically been completed for the purchase of the Danish West Indies by the United States from Denmark for s25. GOO 900.
 A treaty closing the transaction was signed and sent immediately to the Senate.
 While details of the trea-y were not given out. it is understood that the United States would come into complete possession of the islands. Word has been received from Den mark that the treaty is practically certain of being ratified by the Danish parliament and 1t is understood that the Washington administration hopes that it wall be ratified at this session of Congress.
 The three islands of the Danish West Indies-St Croix. St Thomas and St John-lie due east of Porto Rico and their value to the United States is strategic from a military point of view The harbors of St Thomas and St. Croix are of first importance to the american navy and St Thomas itself lies in the lane of shipping from Europe to the Panama Canal Important German French and English mail companies have coaling stations there.
 The acquisition of the islands by  the United States has been the sub ject of unsuccessful diplomatic nego- tiations since the Civil War and at one time Denmark offered the islands for $5,000, 900. The United States Senate ratified the treaty. but the Danish Senate defeated it, largely be- cause of the opposition of Danish aris- tocrats. which still is said to exist It is said that if the proposed treaty is ratified by both governments the transfer will be submitted to the peo- pie Of the islands. In the first nego- tiation in 1865 they approved a change.
 The three islands of St Croix, St. Thomas and St John. in the order of their size and population, were discov- cred by Columbus in 1493. Spanish, British, French. Dutch and Danish flags have foated over one or all of the islands at various times.

 Four nvestigations-city, county, state and federal-will be started to determine the cause of the explosion near the five-mile crib end of the tun= nel last night.
 The efforts of Gustav C. Van Duzen, superintendent of waterworks con struction. and the members of the two rescue parties, to reach the men i'm prisoned without gas helmets or pull motors increased the death list.
