enD, March 81 The German evacua-
ton of Bapaume, Roye, Noyon and Pc
rome is but part of great strategic
undertaking which promises to rev.
olutionize warfare on the entire west
ern front and constitute one of the
most decisive moves in the war.
Just month ago, the Germans
evacuated an important sector on the
Ancre, but kept the fact secret for a
week while the British bombarded the
empty trenches, so today's report
shows the most important develop
ment OF 1917 on any front. The sec
tor included in the evacuated cities
virtually covers the great battle front
Reports from this section of the front
tell of work of destruction carried out
before the occupied land was given
back to the French and British so that
it will avail them nothing as captured
soil, according to views expressed
here.

with the fronts as long as they are
in this war, with the enormous amount
of enemy territory held by our troops"
said high German military authority
today, there is particularly no mill
tary importance attached to any
special section of the enemy's terri
tory. Therefore we can give up a por-
tion of the western front, secure our
troons that freedom of movement
needed, and end trench warfare. That
is what this really amounts to- We are
now getting the enemy out of their
trenches.
THE giving up of this portion of our
front puts an end to their finely laid
spring offensive plans"

In response to requests from many
sources the members of the Cowboy
Band have decided to give a concert
at the /. O. o. f. audltorium in the
near future, probably on the evening
of Tuesday, November 6.
H. III. Miller, director of the organ
ization. announces that the program
will be made up of some ten or
dozen band numbers, ranging from
overtures to popular marches and in
cluding a number of novelty selections
and no less than four or five instru-
mental solos. The talent assisting In
the performance will be limited to the
members of the band. A brass quartet
will be feature of the program. 9th
er numbers of especial interest will
probably include a violin solo by Dale
Fulton, whose popularity as a violin
list is well established bass solo by
G. L. Jones, until recently member
of the Idaho regimental band at Boise !;
a baritone number by Ed Abramson; a
tramb0ne solo by H. S. McCurley, Of

a finger to become entangled in the

Years ago, prominent merchant In
ono of our eastern cities, made the
statement that the first 100000 that
he had to invest, he gave to the Y. M.
@. A. The Studebaker Manufacturing
Co., erected and equipped a Y. M. G.
A. building costing over half million
dollars, In its home town and presented
it to the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation to operate. So also several of
our great railroads, not known par
ticularly for fOOlishness or imbiciiity,
built and maintained splendidly equip
ped Y NJ G. A. buildings at many of
tEeir division centers, and turned them
over to the Young Mems Christian
Association to operate. So In the great
business centers of the world, not only
| in Europe and America, but in China,
Japan, India. Russia, Australia, in fact
nearly all the world commercial CEN
! ters the business men have built these

Chicago, at the expense of millions Of
dollars. Have these men. and great
corporations been fooled all these years
ard been placing their wealth in the
hands of effemiIiate-appearing men
who fiockcd to the T. NJ. c. A. offices,

in the eyes Of the practical, thinking
man than it did three years ago.
which time probably marks the period
when the author began to think along
practical lines Both facts, namely that
the Y. NJ. G. A. is progressing and the
author of the criticism also, are two

we may be duly thankful.
The reason why the Y. M. C. A. is

GRINDING RICH

Big Mill Completed and in OPP
eration-Tons of Chem

News was received here this.week to
the effect that the big Orogrande mill
had been placed in operation last Mon
day. The MILL which has been under
construction for year or more, was
completed early this month. the mach
inery being taken In over the deep snow
last winter, mention II which has been
made In these columns from time to
time The following, as given out by
j. n. Pickrell, president of the Oro-
grande Gold mining company, win be
of interest:
Exercising Machinery.
Not more than $50 to 200 tons of
ore will be received during the period
of exercise to which the machinery
will be subjected" said Mr. Pickrell
Yesterday. "But no time will he lost
in raising the tonnage to capacity
when adjustment has been completed.
The period of increase is not remote.
according to advices from f. w. Bew-
ley. superintendent Mr.. Bewley was
engaged for several years In the dress
ing of ores at Republic before taking
charge of operations on the Orogrande.
The plant just completed is the fore
runner of plant having much great
er capacity. The increase of capacity
is warranted by the resources devel-
oped. 1t will be effected at a cost be-
low the expenditure for this unit, much
of the equipment now in operation he
ing for greater tonnage.
Buy Tons of Chemicals.
1.-THE company has contracted for II
tons of cyanide of potassium, to be de
livered at the rate of three tons 0
month and for a large quantity OF
zinc to he delivered at the rate of 300t
pounds a month The quantities arr

purchase at this time and in this vol
ume will effect savings important II

obtainable i'm Spokane, an order for {
large quantity having been issued ts

Abandon Glory Hole.
"Glory hole methods in che breakin;
or ore proposed at the outset, will no
be used at present Ground will b
broken on the level of the ore bins
where face 300 feet wide will be car
ried into the mountain. Work on thi

necessary. The economy possible o
practice Is illustrated by the size o

When Leather Was Money.

Leather was very early used as a
currency. the Romans employing it for
this purpose before either gold. silver
or brass came into common use. His
tory is full Of references showing that
leather was used Ivy the ancients as a
sort Of circulating medium of ex-
change. 1t is said on good authority
that SO late as during the reign of
Louis XII. of France the country be-
came so Impoverished and as con-
sequence money was SO scarce that lit
tie pieces of leather with Il small silver
nail driven through each were in gen.
eral use as money. Some few speci-
mems of this leather money are still in
existence.
