RESCUE MAINTAINS ITS RECORD FOR
THE PROFITABLE PRODUCTION OF ORE

Some very interesting data regard
ing the Rescue-Eula and North Star
properties was received by the Bon
ANA from Herman Zadig, who visited
both these mines, returning to San
Francisco this morning. Mr.. Zadig
said: "The important developments
that are being made In the Rescue do
not seem to be appreciated by the
investing public The people do not
recognize the great amount Of ore
that has been already developed, but
as the ore is taken out and turned
into bullion time will show that my
statements were correct as to the
development in the property.
'The several raises are all In ore
and the last raise, No. 5, which was
started near the end of the east drift
on the $50 level, Is up 35 feet and
shows very good ore in the face.
This vein has fattened out consider
ably. The raise will be carried up
until we reach the cap rock. think
that we will start drifting east again,
and at the same time, when the raise
is up so or so feet, start an interme-
date and at the same time continue
the raise to the cap rock.
THE winze is going down in its
regular course so as to get to the
1850 as soon as possible. 1t is Super
intendent Thomas intention to cross
cut for the vein on the 1850 and then
run east and west on the ore. There
Is good deal of misconception as to
this Wine. 1t was not started for
the purpose of following the ore
down, but to make 1t working from
which to explore the downward con-
tinuation of the ore body to the
depths. instead of going back to the
shaft and running drift 500 or 600
feet. 1t was decided upon to start
the winze about 100 feet from where
the ore was struck, to go down 100
feet and then drift and crosscut."
Another important piece of work
that has been laid out is resumption
of activities on the 100 level to pros

MY PLACID SOUL"
BY A LOCAL WRITER
LYRIC FROM THE PEN OF WELL
KNOWN WRITER, FORMERLY
LIVING IN MILLERS

The Sunday Leader of Springfield
Ohio, of last Sunday, contains a
pretty poem from the pen of Mrs
Morton l.. Lawton, whose husband
was formerly connected with the
Desert Milling company at Millers
when the authoress was known by
the name of Daisy Lawton. Mrs
Lawton displayed considerable talent
while living at Millers. but her friends
lost sight of her after she and her
husband moved to Blueflelds, Nicar-
aqua, where he was employed by the
Eden Mining company. until the fol
lowing sketch showed the lady was
back in her native land. Mrs. Law
ton spent a few months only in
Nicaragua until the conditions be
came intolerable and she welcomed

level. AS soon as the compressor
which we bought from the North
Star, is In running order, this work
will be started. In the meanwhile
we have resumed work in the north
crosscut in the Rescue, which was
run to within 80 feet Of the Occiden-
tai claim of the Belmont Its face is
In body of matrix trachyte. The
work was stopped when the strike
was made on the $50 We then con-
centrated all our efforts on the devel-
opment of the ore in the Eula claim.
"A shipment OF so tons OF good
milling ore is being sent to the West
End mill every other day. If this
stock. with such showing In the
ground, Is not worth more than 20
cents. | give 1t up. In all my expert
ence | have never seen a stock with
such a showing sell for such price
THE most pleasant surprise of my
trip has been the showing in the
North Star. 1t looks to me now as
though the North Star has taken a
new lease on life. and while never
lost faith in the North Star making
mine some day. yet when one meets
with as many disappointments as
did in this mine It takes a pretty
strong faith and confidence not to
weaken in ones belief.
1.-THE development on the $50 GER
tainly shows some beautiful ore and
we are getting the same ON the 900,
where there is large area of unex-
plored ground. This makes me feel
that there is good chance for quite
a large body~of pay ore to be devel-
oped. There is another place in the
North Star which shows exceedingly
rich ore. which is above the 1910. |
am taking down with me a specimen
that | think is the most beautiful
piece of ore that was ever taken out
OF mine in Tonopah, and while |
do not claim that there is large
deposit of this ore on the 1910, |
claim that getting piece even this
small gives me right to believe
that there Is more"

OUR PREDICTION TRUE

Not long ago when the stork paid
a few visits to Welsh homes, the
Journal made the prediction that the
naughty bird might be lingering in
the neighborhood, in fact we suggest
ed TIT he might decide to winter in
this section. That the prediction was
true is proven by the arrival at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Tres. Miller
Monday afternoon of twins-a nine
pound boy and an eight pound girl
Taken as a whole this community can
not be accused of tending toward race
suicide, but there are some instances
painful to relate, where the stork
has neglected his duty, as shown by
the uneven distribution of favors
Now, although the Journal feels nj
/ personal responsibility in the matter
it will undertake to persuade the storl
that in the future it is imperative tina
he give a little careful study to hi
own vocation and bring little chez
(cherubs) to some of our cherries
(cherubless) homes.

TWO DISTRICT JUDGES
TAKE OATH OF OFFICE
Judge Winston 0verfOn First Elected
in l908-Judge ]. ID. Cline Sue
ceeds Judge A. NJ. Barbe.

The Fifteenth judicial district court
was formally organized for the ensu-
ing four years at Lake Charles Friday
when the judges-elect, Winston Over
ton and J. D. Cline, appeared before
District Clerk A. S. Gossett and took
theoath of office. Judge Overton is
his own successor and Judge Cline sue
ceeds Judge A. M. Barbe, who was not
candidate for reelection. Both
judges were nominated and elected
without opposition.
Judge Overton was first elected in
1908, reelected in 1912 and again in
November last, without opposition. He
is regarded as one of the strongest
district judges in the state. Judge
Cline has had no official experience
but has a record of over twenty
years successful practice at the loca
bar.
The new judges will probably con
suit shortly and fix the terms of cour
in the various parishes, dividing tn
work between themselves. In point o

DOMESTIC SCIENCE SCHOOLS
MAKE STUDY OF RICE

Growing and widespread interest IN
the use and culture of rice, says the
Crowley Signal, is shown in a letter
received by J. R. Logan, an employe
of the Layne & Bowler Company in
this city, from Mrs, Sam Morthland
of Decatur, Illinois, formerly a resi-
dent of Welsh, who states that the
schools of that city desire to take up
a study of the culture of rice.
Mr.. Logan has complied with the
request and sent the samples request
ed, and no doubt by this time the
pupils in the domestic science depart
ment of the Decatur schools are de-
voting themselves to study OF rice,
its culture, its milling processes and
its various uses as an article of diet.
When the schools of the land begin
taking up the study of rice, partlcu-
larly in the domestic science depart
ments, there is good evidence OF the
widespread interest in this cereal and
of its growing popularity with the
people as a staple and permanent food
product. Much may be expected from
this study in the extension of the use
of rice in the homes of the land
where now it is stranger, and SIM
liar studies in other schools shoule
be encouraged.
