benefit of the culture offered by the in
f1uence OF the theatre as we'll as those of
more fortunate financial situation. He
described the spread of this movement
to the United States and mentioned
the Little Theatres" which have been
built in some of the larger cities from
the funds that were derived from giving
performances of merit at prices that all
could afford to pay. The object of the
Little Theatre movement is to improve
the class of production as we'll as to
lower the price and to get away from
the domination of Broadway. Prof.
Skinner thinks that every little city in
the state should have it's organization
of resident players and carry on the
work by an exchange between cities, thus
forming a little circuit in which the
various cities could each have it's drama
tic body, which would give performances
in each city of the circuit.
The first talk of the afternoon was
one by Miss Bess M. Rowe to women.
Her subject was Efficiency in Home
Making" Miss Rowe said that bust
ness men recognize the need of efficiency
in all departments of business because
the returns are evident. In the home,
tangible results are not so easily ap-
parent because good citizenship is the
principal result and can not be measured
in dollars and cents. The necessity
for efficiency in home making is even
more apparent, however, than in bust
ness and Miss Rowe urged mothers to
make study of their problems and
work for the right balance between the
factors that go to make success of their
efforts. There are problems of manage
ment, expenditures, plan of work, va'ue
of labor and strength saving devices;
problems of the proper kinds and
amounts of food elements; problems of
dress, it's material and design, in order
to get 100 cents for every dollar ex-
pended; problems of health maintenance;
of recreation so that it may mean re-
taxation and improvement rather than
merely added nervous strain. Women
are the determining power in all these
problems and upon the efficiency of the
home depends the efficiency of the state
and the nation, so woman's problem is
no small or insignificant one. -....
The University Players presented
pretty little one act play entitled '"The
Flower Store" that was most pleasing
and very well done. All who heard
them were anxious to see them in their
evening production "Green Stockings"
which was Tuesday evenings program.

SHERIFF FINDS ESCAPED INSANE
PERSON

Sheriff julius was called out to the
farm of Henry Holm in Sigel township
Monday night, to take into custody an
insane person who was seen roaming the
fields in the afternoon and in the evening
had established himself in an empty
barn. The man had dog with him and
the farmers were afraid to go near enough
to get a closer glimpse of him. When
the Sheriff and his companions arrived
the man was found barricaded in the
abandoned barn but did not resist going
peaceably.
Brought to the county jail the identity
of the person was established by calling
up the hospital for the insane at Roches-
ter. The mans name is Philip Spiel
man and he escaped from the Rochester
institution last week while attending a
circus in company with number of others
considered harmless. His home is at
St. Charles, Winona county, from which
point he was sent to the institution two
years ago. When asked what he wanted
out in this neck of the woods, he said he
was surveyor measuring the distance
between Winona and Tracy. On other
subjects he spoke very nationally. {

OBITUARY
MRS. OTTO HARTMANN


Sad indeed was the death of Mrs. Otto
Hartmann, who passed away at her home
on Washington street last Sunday even
ing shortly before II o'clock, as result
of stroke of apoplexy which she had
suffered Saturday evening. While she
never had been seriously i'll, she had been
ailing for the past ten or twelve years,
being afflicted with heart trouble and the
great fear of her family was that she
would pass away suddenly. Medical
aid was at once summoned when she was
stricken but to no avail.
Mrs. Hartmann, nee Minnie Louise
Runck, was born in Milford township
July 4, 1878, consequently was not yet
43 years of age at the time of her death.
She was daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. H.
L. Runck, now residing in the city. She
was married October II, 1894, to Otto
Hartmann and the couple lived on farm

January rs, 1856, and came to America
with his parents in 1871, the family
settling in Sigel township, where he has
made his home ever since. He was
married in 1880 to Miss Anna Hauser

FARMERS OPPOSE DITCH
CLAIM COST OF CONSTRUCTION
GREATER THAN BENEFITS
TO BE DERIVED

| Between forty and fifty farmers at
tended meeting of the board of county
commissioners Monday afternoon at the
district court room and presented argu-
ments for and against the establishment
of new drainage ditch in the townships
of Burnstown and Bashaw. The ditch
had been petitioned for some time ago
and the board had appointed three view
ers, Messrs. Frank, Palson and Schulz,
to make report on the proposition.
These men recommended the building
of the ditch and estimated the cost at
approximately $4,000.
Opposition to the building of the ditch
arose over the fact that the ditch as ORR
ginally planned did not take in anywhere
near the territory the revised plat calls
for, large number of branches and lat
erals having been added by the surveyor.
The opposition claimed that their lands
were not benefited to an extent great
enough to offset the cost of construction.
Attorney Aug Erickson of Springfield
appeared for those favoring the ditch
and Albert Pfaender for the DIRECTORS.
Both made their arguments to the board
and examined number of witnesses.
The board took the matter under advise
ment and probably will render decision
at an adjourned meeting called for this
wednesday, morning. ~

In this mine the hanging is separ-
ated from the foot by about thirty
feet of ledge matter and infilling
from the surface. AT only one point
has the granite beer explored and
that was too near daylight for per-
manency. 1t is the theory of the
management that below water level
the most heavily mineralized por-
ton of the vein will adhere to the
granite, and a cross-cut is to be run
to establish this fact. 1t is also
the theory hat lenses will form in
the lime hanging and both walls will
be carefully watched for these rea-
sons.
The property is equipped with a
steam hoist and it will shortly have
heavier boilers and a four drill CON-
pressor, as we'll as pumps, when the
500 foot level will be sought. The
company is incorporated for 1,0Oc,-
600 shares, of which 3OO.G,r
shares remain in the treasury. OF
the issued stock, 81 per cent has
been purchased by the Black Butte
company of ,Goldfeld. P. ". Row
nranek OWNS the greater portion of
the remaining 40 per cent. He has
charge of the property and is de-
veloping it vigorously and s~cientifi-
cally. His shipments have thus far
amounted to SO eco. And. by the
way, the hospitality of the Row
nianek's is boundless. A big dump
of ore has been accumulated aud
the plans of the company include
the placing of a mill on the ground,
but this will not be done until the
nature of the ore below the water
level is fully determined.
The vein has a trend of nearly
east and west and dips to the south
at an angle of from As to 70 de-
grees. The line of demarcation be-
tween the lime and the granite is
~traceable on the surface for several
thousand feet. The lime is very
ancient, but is not fossilized, al
though there is diatomacious earth
in this vicinity, %evidencing that an
inland sea once existed there.
The lack of fossils indicates that
the lime was deposited prior to the
Devonian period and that it was
rplifted by the granite intrusion,
making the formation similar to
that in the southern portion of the
Manhattan district. The enrichment,
however, was doubtless in relatively
OF modern times.
The Orizaba is situated about for
~ miles a little west of north from
Tonopah. The country shows that
little prospecting has been done in
the vicinity and there is a proba-
bility that the Orizaba will pave the
way for considerable activity in that
district as soon as the public real

MINING
DEAL CLOSED

An important mining deal was
consummated today, when w. y.
Chambers, a prominent mining man
OF California, representing San
Francisco capital, took a lease and
bond on the Hidden Treasure group
OF claims, located about a mile and
{ half from Aura.
There are eight claims in the
group, and they are owned by r.
s. Carmichael and VIM. Wore. Mr..
Carmichael has been interested in
this property for IA years, and Mr..
Wore has held ar interest for six
years. They have done about 1900
feet of development work. The ore
is gold, silver and lead.
Mr.. Chambers will keep a small
force of men at work all winter,
and in the spring proposes to do
extensive development. The con-
sideration was not made public. -

PACKARD ORE
LOOKS GOOD

Specimens fOf white quartz con-
tanning ruby silver have been re-
ceived from the Nevada Packard
mine at the Reno office of the COM
pany. The new ore was found in
a cross-vein on the ground former
~ operated as the Reconsideration
lease, and which produced $65, 900
as a lease. The vein, at a deprh
of 10 feet is 26 inches wide. az
cordlng to a report received from
Supt. Wilkey. The course of the
vein is toward the lime-shale con-
tact vein, which is furnishing most
o. the ore milled, and it is believ-
cd that it was the avenue through
which the schistose rock in the Kor-
northampton lease was enriched.
Supt. Wilkey's report shows the
mine in excellent condition and
earning close to $4,000 a month.
The daily average recovery is about
$1,000 per day with mine and mill
costs at $500, which leave a hand
some profit. Two shipments of pre-
cipitates have been made this month

point the cores began to yield good
assays.
Encouraged by the results obtain
ed in drilling, the directors decided
to sink the main shaft to reach
the shale and alaskite and good
progress has been made in this
work. Shale was found in the
drill cores taken a short distance be-
low the 900-foot point and below
this some broken alaskite appeared
in the cores. In sinking the shaft,
however, it vas found hat both the
shale and alaskite penetrated by
the drill were present only in the
form of intrusions or broken mas
ses, within the quartz mass, and
neither has appeared in place at a
