 Fractures a Bone

VENICE Calf ever the tenacl ty of a sea clam is questioned, Miss Clara Davis, of Brooklyn. N. l., will be an excellent witness to tes tify to the. clinging power of this bivalve. Miss Davis, who is fair and 19 years of age, is a guest of friends in Venice Yesterday after noon, with others, she went bathing. While near shore she uttered a cry of pain and tried to grasp he" right foot. As she did so breaker caught her and washed her up on the beach, where it was found that large clam had become attache1 to the little toe on the right foot. It was impossible to pry it loose. and the only thing her friends could do was to get two large stones and smash the shell. Miss Davis tainted with 'ra1 and pain, lnd after the bivalve had been taken frorl her toe she was taken to the Emergency Hos 9ital, where 1t was found the bone IS broken. Mlni, pal Nurse Erbel dressed the inJu'y and Miss Davis N,a> taken to her apartments.

and zinc The increased activity in the mining industry of California is finding expression largely in the roopening of mines that have been long idle and the opening of new mines for chrome, tungsten, manga nese. antimony and magnesite, rail shipments of these ores to the east being made possible by prevailing high prices. Washington is another State which shows increased pro- duction, the mining industry there being in better condition than for several years past. Alaska also is benefiting by the increased activity of it's mines Copper mining is showing great advances, and the out put of both copper and gold prom ises to exceed that of last year

Life s Shop Window"
 On Tuesday Night

Owing to the fact that a large went on the excursion yesterday and as a consequence were gone last night. the management of Thorne's concluded 10 postpone their regu- lar weekly four-bit show Accord ingly. there will be but a two-bit show tonight as usual, while "Life's Shop Window" a Fox feature, will be shown Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, starting at S:3O o'clock
 "Life's Shop Window is Vic toria Cross masterpiece from the popular play and novel, featuring Claire Whitney and Stuart Holmes. It is the story of clandestlne mar riage that almost resulted in dis aster and is delicate bu truthful visualization of the novel and play which were the talk of two continents. Fully 100000 people saw "Life's Shop Window" in one day in ten New Ork theatres, ana thOusandS were turned away, being unable to gain admittance.
 The story of "Life's Shop Window" is that of a suave gentleman who sows the seeds of discontent in the mind of a credulous country girl who is married to a hard working, home loving farmer. This polished rascal with his glib talk about Lon don, New York and Paris and of the beauties and comforts of metro politan life not only alenates the pretty little woman from her hus- band but also tries to lure her away from him.

General Mining News

| Of ore is expected to surpass the large production of last year.
 The lead and zlnc mines are pro duCins ore at a rate even exceeding that of last year and the prevailing prices have made possible the work ing of large quantities of low gra ie 1 ore.
 Most precious metal mines are operating at full capacity. The gold production will probably fall below the high yield of last year, but silver the one metal last to bene- fit by the general domestic pros 1 perity, is expected this year to break all previous records.
 | In quicksilver the outlook is for continuance of the output of 1915, which was the largest for several years. Thus far in 1916 the aver age price has greatly exceeded the 1915 prices; and although the rear. tion in prices has come, conditions are favorable for steady and profit, able operation of the quckSilVel mines, some of which are newly opened.

WAR ID INCREASE
 PRICE 0F SHOES

A side effect of the far-away war that interests every man, woman and child is the announcement of the fact that shoes must this sea son advance in price. The general ly reported scarcity of leather and increased cost of tanning since the war began, combined with an enor- mously increased demand for leath- CT, all account for the advanced cost of footwear
 Millions of pairs of shoes for the European armies have been made and still are being made by Ameri can shoe manufacturers On the average, these army shoes consume one and one-half times as much leather as the average American mans shoe.
 Knapsacks. saddles, harnesses and other material for the armies at war and a general increase in equip ment of the American army and StoIV iiliiilia dIIouhl lOl Sllll further demand on the none too large supply of leather. Munitions plants have called for thousannds of feet of leather beltlng and the gen eral picking up of business has started thousands of factories wheels and greatly augmented the call for belting. Autos have also made great and increasing inroads into the available leather supply for upholstering.
 Leather is by-product. The SUD- ply cannot be increased at will, as crops and metals are, but is de- pendent on the hide supply; and cat tie are not killed, primarily, for their hides. The latest census re ports show that the cattle popula- tion has decreased 20 per cent in the last ten years. and the popula- tion has increased the same per centage
 Shoes, therefore, are to be more expensive. It is said that the in crease for the present will be about 20 per cent, but will likely be more by next fall.-The Shoeman

 GENERAL PROSPERITY

The accomplishment of the min ing industry ln the sX-month period just completed warrants the forecast that 1916 is to be a record breakinS $ ear" With this statement the di- rector of the United States Gnologi- cal Survey sums up his official mid year review of the mineral indus try as reported to him by the gov ernment geologists and statiSticians covering the different subjects.

The mining man is having his innings. " which are now being made public Director Smith continues his review
 The returns for six months fur nish basis for the belief that 1916 will set up new record for the soft coal mines Every coal mining State is sharing in this prosperity and of course this demand for coal is to be traced back to the increased business of the railroads and of the steel and other large industries.
 Drilling activity throughout the oil producing States has brought about a gratifying increase in pro- duction of crude oil that promises to make 1916 record year for marketed petroleum. Already pro duction and consumption are re- ported by the Surveys specialist az essentially in balance east of the Rocky mountains. with a tendency to lower prices.
 The Portland cement industry has had a busy six months and the manufacturerH are optimistic. It is predicted that in both production and shipments of cement this year will show a gain over last year, if indeed, it does not establish a new record for cement.

Rockefeller s Defer
 Dies Tn Almshouse

TARRYTOWN, N. Y.-John Melin the Swedish innkeeper who defiet John D. Rockefeller for years, was buried today in Sleepy Hollow ceme tery.
 Melin, who kad refused all kinds of offers from the capitalist for the purchase of his inn, died a paupeI in the Westchester county aims house.
 John Melin once owned a corner plot of ground in Sleepy Hollow across from the entrance of the oil capitalists estate. He had sold liquor there for years before MT Rockefeller went to Pocantio Hills and he saw no reason why he should discontinue to please his new neighbors.
 Mr Rockefeller considered the inn a blot on the landscape and the sale of intoxicants so near his home was obnoxious. He sought to buy Melin's property, sending many agents to him for the purpose, but their efforts were futile.
 After trying for several years lC buy the corner MT. Rockefeller gave up the idea and proceeded to buy all the property around Melin's place. He put in as tenants men employed on his estate. To do this it was necessary to buy all of Briggs vile.
 MT Rockefeller had issued orders that none of his tenants should pat ronize Melin. The result was that although Melin put up a brave fight his business gradually dwindled away. At last he was glad to get any price for his property. It was bought by an agent and subsequently, passed to Rockefeller.
