Failure To Pay November Dividend
Explained BY President.


A disbursement of half a cent
share was due to be made by the In
termountain Mining company last
Monday, amounting to $S,O75 but the
payment was not made. The failure
is explained by Edward Evans, presi-
dent of the company, in a statement
that the sudden cold spell came be
fore the company was prepared for
severe weather, which forced a sus-
pension of the mine and mill on ac-
count of shortage of water for power
and milling purposes, making 1t nee
essary to use the cash intended for
stockholders for the payment of en-
ployes and other unexpected expenses,
The company is constructing an ell
ectric power line to connect with the
Lacasse plant about three miles up
the creek, and this is expected to be
completed within a week. The COM
pany was closed down last winter on
account of excessive cold, and it is
to avoid the same trouble this winter
that electric power is being obtained.
The company hopes to be in a position
to pay the deferred dividend in Oeto-
Der.

Carbonate Hill.

Andrew Hedin, manager of the Car
Donate Hill, states that the company
has decided to drive a new tunnel 300
feet below the old workings. Before
this work is undertaken it is proposed
Ia install a compressor and other
equipment, which may render 1t neces-
sary to wait until spring on account
OF unfavorable weather conditions. A
large body of lead and zinc ore has
been developed in the upper tunnel
and winze 100 feet deep is also in
good ore.

NATIONAL.
Report That Property Is Soon To Re-
sumo Operations.

The report coming from Spokane
yesterday that the National would be
restored to the active list was very
welcome news. but up to this time
lacks confirmation. few days ago
Charles McKinnis, secretary of the
company and one of the directors
stated in response to a question that
there was nothing new to report ex-
cept that he had just been up to the
property to see that all pipes were
disconnected and everything at the
mine and mill placed in condition to
avoid damage during the winter. How
ever, with copper quoted at 1914 cents
and predictions that it will go to 40
cents, it would seem that now is the
time to get action. 1t is hoped there
fore that the rumored plans for re-
sumption is well founded and that
steps will be taken at once to that
end.

The girl had turned her back on him.
She was rummaging in trunk at one

the stage.
The spectators lowered over their
chairs IA few moments, getting back their
cOmposure and uncertain as to whether
the show was over, and then slowly filed
out. Some thought it was the greatest
feat OF craftsmanship that had ever come
to town. Others averred that it was too
dangerous that the constable should put
Il stop to it. And there was a firm and
loud-voiced minority that maintained
themselves the victims of a swindle on ac-
count of the brevity of the show.
But out they went. And scarcely had
they gained the outer air when they saw
the erstwhile troubadour, reclad in his
street garments mount the big box and
send forth his announcements:
"The show is just about to begin! The
biggest show on the grounds! Se1orita

and the thr-r-rilling dagger-r-r act.
All around the Catorno tent on the
Coppins lot other fakirs were plying their
trades, with varying success. The ring
the-cane man was doing the biggest
business of all. He invariably does. At
fractions may come and attractions may
go, but there is something about group
of canes and pile of inviting little wooden
rings that challenges the sporting spirit of
a rural mob as does nothing else in the
world
Every one was doing well except the
Catornos. Nobody could have told why
this should be so. The Catornos certainly
could not. They had good show" The
sehorita was pretty. The senior had an
act that was thriller. But business was
bad. 1t may have been that there was
thing about the two glittering lines OF
teeth the thin lips, and the malevolent
eyes, that frightened people away. 1t
may have been that.
WHEN the last reluctant urchin had
w been chased from the grounds, the
Catornos began to quarrel. They had
been quarrelng now since the second
week of the present season, and the quar-
rels We're becoming more frequent and of
an increasingly bitter nature.
This time it began over the first knife
that had been thrown. Not until she
stepped from her place of danger did the
sehorita know how close that first knife
had come to her right ear. She knew by
the position of the knives, then that she
had had another in long series of escapes.
"Are you trying to kill me, Bill?" she
cried, thrusting her face forward toward
his. you're drinking too much, that's
what's the matter!'
He showed his teeth and laughed a
sick mans laugh.

piled nonchalantly.
She shivered little and changed the
subject: "What's the gate to-night?' a

tent, cursing Boxton and Boxtonians in
frightful oaths. .

In his annual report to congress, Secretary Lane, of the interior de- partment, says emphatically that Alas ka must have wagon roads. The fol lowing is part of his statement:
 "The roads that have been con- structed are not the fine highways of many of the states, but they mark the beginning of a system of military and post roads which are of incalcu

The further de- velopment of the mineral, agriCul- tural and other resources of the ter ritory is as much dependent upon the construction. Railroads will open to development extensive districts, to be sure, but wagon roads must, in the last analysis, be depended upon to de- velop tonnage for the railroads.

LOCUSTS ASSA|L CROPS BUENOS
 AIRES

BUENOS AYRES, Dec. 26. - The crops of the northern provinces of the republic is slowly working its way southward. These insects, together with an unprecedented drought. threaten to reduce the crops by half, and in some sections by an even great CT percentage.
 The locust comes from some part of the unexplored region of southern Bra gil and pours over the country in great streams so thick and long as to often darken the sun. From Pena there comes a dispatch saying that stream extending 30 klometers has settled upon the fields and left no green thing in that part. The young, matched from the millions of eggs de posted, have in places covered the railway so thickly as to impede traf- fife, and trains have been stalled until the insects have been shovelled from the tracks and burned in ditches.
 The government is waging a vig0r. ous fight, but seems to be making little headway. The department of agricultural defense has 2O,000,00O me. ters of metallic barriers for the pur. pose of penning swarms, which are then burned. trampled by farm ami mals or buried. This is accomplished because the young locust Is without wings. It much resembles a young grasshopper except its coloring is much brighter, red and yellow, black and green predOminating.
