St. PAUl'S THREATENED
BY SEN|lE DECAY
SEAT OF TROUBLE IS UNEVEN
DISTRIBUTION or WEIGHT
OF THE DOME
my Associated Press.)


LONDON, Feb 5.--Again the atten-
tion of the public has been called to
the danger of st. Paul's Cathedral
collapsing through "senile decay"
and an appeal for funds is made by
the dean to hasten the repairs.
Two years ago the sum of $350,000
was asked by the cathedral preserva-
tion board, and of this only about
$150.000 has been so far subscribed.
1t was then stated by the examining
engineers that the original architect.
the great Wren, had been very spar
ing in his use OF materials. The con-
stant iarring Of the building by motor
bus and other heavy traffic had of
course not been anticipated.
The vast and imperfectly distri-
buted weight of the dome is the seat
of the trouble, and the gradual pre-
sure of the weight is accelerated by
the rusting of iron ana internal de-
generacy. Only the loyalty of the ma
terials to each other, says one au-
thority, has kept the mass together.
Repairs done at an earlier period are
found to be entirely inadequate, and
new buttresses and support must be
constructed at soon as the money can
be found.

SINKING ON PAY ORE
IN THE GYPSY QUEEN
THREE SHIFTS ARE GOING DOWN
ON PROMISING NEW LEDGE
IN NEW TERRITORY

The Gypsy Queen property never
looked better than 1t does today. At
a point PAT feet from the shaft in a
southeasterly direction on the 1850
level the vein, which was being fol
lowed, developed streak of pay ore.
A station was cut, air introduced
and pump installed IN a winze that
was started on this good formation.
Three shifts are sinking the winze.
The vein is about four feet in width
while the pay ore varies from eight
to eighteen inches in width. This ore
will be saved for shipment.

Although very efficient work was

though the Elks. Eagles, Women's re-
lief corps and other organizations

work, there still remain some families
In the city that viii need aid during
the winter months.
To this end a meeting has been
called for next Tuesday evening at
1880 in the club rooms at the Mizpah
hotel for the purpose Of organizing a
permanent relief committee, A gen
eral invitation to be present Is ex-
tended.

INCREASED VALUATION

Figures recently compiled by Sec
retary Adamson of the Nevada state
tax commission, show an increase in
the assessed valuation of Reno of
$9,000,000 over that of last year.
The increase is due to the addition
to the list of taxable property of
many properties which have hither-
to escaped taxation. Private car line
companies have been added to the
tax list for the first time.

exodus of laborers left Reno recent
ly for the ice fields between Reno
