IMPORTANT CHANGES
 r ID BE MADE SHORTLY IN COMMONWEALTH EX.
Charles Hicks Takes Charge Of Office and Business End While Jack Metcalf As sumes Mine Management.

Several important changes in the Commonwealth Extension mine have taken place in the last few days. and it begins 10 look as if the Extension was rapidly approaching that point where they will be milling and ship ping ore.
 President C. w. Hicks, who has been developing the property will now as sume entire charge of the business and office end of the company and in addi- ton to his other duties will assume the secretaryship. thus giving his en- tire time to that end of the company affairs.
 During Mr Hicks. stay at Pearce. he has made a very fine showing and now that the affairs of the company have reached that point where the office and executive end of the affairs need a practical man. MT Hicks is the proper man to look after that end of it..
 Another change that was necessary at this stage of the ,ompany's welfare was the selection of a practical man to take charge Jf the surface and un- derground workings and in that se- lection the L1zPeny has been most 31rtunate in securing Jack" Metcalfe. recently with the A. s. and R. in various parts of Mexico, and at one time n the employ of the old Common wealth at Pearce for over five years His selection is particularly gratifying to the stockholders and directors. be cause of his intimate knowledge of the locality. Another drill of the most improved patterns has been added to the equipment and work will be push ed to the utmost. Another man. who has been connected with the Exten- sion, and who is confident O fthe final outcome of the property. is J. N Pen berthy, who for the last year or two has been the consulting engineer.
 It is said that the old Common wealth people have arranged to run drift into their property from the Rainbow shaft of the Extension and al- ready at work on it. This will be of great benefit to both companies. Sev- eral ore showings have been opened up in the Rainbow shaft of the Ex- tension will be connected at once which means a great advantage in the way of air shipping, getting rid of waste and for the complete operation and exploration Of the property. The extension has ten claims of what may he terred practically undeveloped property, with the most encouraging surface showings and excellent re- suits in the Rainbow workings

THE SAVING OF MONEY.
When Purchasing Luxuries Consider
How Old You Are.

In the American Magazine in az
article on family finances is related
this incident:
One day young man twenty-five
years of age told me that he had
just fallen heir to $4,000. He was
going to spend the whole sum on a
pure luxury. He said that $4,000
was not much money anyway and
that he might as well have a good
time with it, even though the good
time lasted only a little while.
When | told him in a general
way that he ought to save that
money made no impression on
him. But when explained to him
how $4,000 invested at 6 per cent
and compounded annually would
double in twelve years he began to
wake up. At thirty-seven he would
have $4,000, at forty-nine $4,000
and at sixty-one 100000. The $780,
600 at sixty-onc would be yielding
him $1,000 a year, a little more
than his present salary.
| had aroused his financial mag

nation TO the first real work it had
ever done, so far as | know. He
hung on to that money and invest
ed it at per cent.
| told him that when he is sixty
one and has that $4,000 maybe
somebody else will give him $4,000
and if so to go out and spend it if
he wants to. Money spent at sixty
one by man of some means is not
like money spent at twenty-five by
a young man of no means. The
man at sixty-one has comparatively
little chance left for his pile to
grow. In fact, by sixty-one he is
supposed to have his pile.

uries consider how old you are be-

TIPPED OFF THE BATTER.
The Catcher Paid His Debt of Graft
tude and Was Almost Sorry.

Ben Eagan, Indian catcher,
caught his first big league game
in Cleveland in September, 1908.
Cleveland was then making its ia
nous fight for the pennant that it
lost to Detroit 10y half a game.
Connie Mack brought an assorted
bunch Of players west that trip.
Among them were Pitcher Flater,
Center Fielder Struck and Third
Baseman Manusch.
1t so happened that one of the
games had to be declared off be-
cause of rain, and arrangements
were made to play. it the following
morning. The pitchers were Heine
Berger for Cleveland and Flater for
the Athletics. Ben Eagan report
ed that morning, and he was sent
in to catch. The fact that Cleve-
land eventually won has nothing to
do with the story, however.
Along in the middle of the game
Lajoie came dashing home on hit
to the outfeld. 1t looked as it the
Nap manager would have to slide,
and down on the base line went Ea-
gan, ready to tag the Cleyelander.
The throw was late, however, and
Larry scored easily. Then, before
going to the bench, Larry stopped
and said to Eagap:
81 want to tell you something,
youngster, that may keep you out
of the hospital. If | had slid into
the plate then l would have ripped
your leg open. Now, this is the way
you should have tried to block me-"
And he proceeded to give Ben a
practical lesson.
81 certainly felt grateful to Lar
ry," says Eagan. "There l was,
only a youngster catching my first
big league game, while he was the
manager of team that was having
terrific battle for the pennant. l
felt so grateful, in fact, that the
next time Larry came to bat / said:
"Iarry, | want to get even for
what you told me. This next ball
is going to be fast one.'
"Well, you can imagine what
Larry did with that fast boy. He
landed on it so hard that if Ma
nusch had not dropped to the
ground they would have had to car
ry him off the field.
'That got me to thinking what
might have happened as the result
of my showing my appreciation Of
Larry's advice, and you can bet /
never tipped off another batter dur
ing the rest of my baseball career"
