claims against the company are re-

shares of stock at 10 cents per share.
Stockholders are urged to increase
their holdings by purchasing this

the amount of work accomplished and
showing developed that they could
probably bond the property or sell the
control. but that they prefer to give
the old stockholders chance to re-

much toward extricating the company
from it's financial difficulties the of

report on the property by r. II.
Hewer, mining engineer of Spokane,
accompanies the statement. The Blue
Star group consists of claims about
j quarter of mile from the mouth
of Pine creek and about two miles
from the Bunker Hill & Sullivan
smelter and within easy access to the
railroad. Mr. Hewer describes the
formation as st. Regis and Revett
luartzite with evidences of Burke al.
so. The property is developed by
shaft 500 feet deep, from which
crosscut has been run 1870 feet dis
closing a large quartz vein carrying a
little ore. Some very good milling ore
was opened in Wine sunk 40 feet on
the vein. From the bottom of the
shaft a crosscut 1870 feet cut the vein,
which Mr. Hewer says is sparcely
nineralized.
Best Vein Untouched.
Quoting from Mr.. Hewers report:
I'm making the surface examina-
ton | note another vein has been ex-
posed by shallow cuts and to be run
ming in northwestery direction
through the property. This vein APP
pears to be strong and shows evil
dence of fair naturalization, but very
little has been done to explore it. Now
II is known from experience in the
Occur dAlene district that any vein
having a strike in a northeasterly di-
quality to be mined profitably There
fore | consider that too much satten-
ton has been paid to your northeast
vein in the shaft with the main vein
on your property untouched"
He recommends that the drift on
the 500 level be extended to the north
west vein, which should be reached in
about 400 feet.

Tommy Atkins VIII,
Tho Un,O;tnessed, Is
Held Legal by Court

London, Sept. 28.-The "last will and
testament'' which the British private
frequently writes into the little pay
book" which he carries with him
wherever he. goes is an interesting
study.
Wills made in the trenches arc
legal without witnesses and the SOL
dier's own signature is all that is re-
quired to make such will acceptable
to the courts. Even if the signature
is lacking, the will still may be ac-
cepted If there is evidence as to the
handwriting or intention Of the soldier.
In every case the authorities make
every effort to carry out the soldiers $
wishes, however, crudely they are ex-
pressed or however fantastic they may
be.
Many Of these trench wills have the
Tommy Atkins characteristic touch
Of humor. Some are in dialect, some
are in phonetic spelling. Several have
been in cipher which has taxed the war
office experts to solve. Occasionally
they leave purely imaginary posses
sions to institutions OF fictitious per-
sons. Here is will in rhyme, which
was written while the soldier was on
duty at listening post in No Mans
Land:
81 haven't sweetheart 1 haven't a
mother, XIII
1--WE only one sister. not even a
brother;
My sister Susan is all I've got
80 aught that's mine, she can have
the lot"
This will went thru the courts with
out question despite its unusual form.
Another will in rhyme leaving the
money to the first conner is the fol-
lowing: s&
Whoever first sets eyes on this
Gets everything leave
For my kith and kin are dead and
gone
"And I've not friend to grieve.
There's a tidy bit in the bank you'll
find.
And my army pay. tho small;
$50 stranger, breathe one sigh for
me,
You're welcome to it ALL"
/ This will was forwarded to England
by the young sergeant who found it
and he shortly afterward received noti-
flcation that the tidy bit," which
turned out to be substantial sum of
money, had been deposited to his ac-
count.

Washington Sept. 2s.-More than 1eo
leaders Of t'e I. w. w. engaged in
the alleged nation wide conspiracy to
hamper the government in carrying on
the war have been indicted by the fed
eral grand jury at Chicago. Ind,ct :
ments will be handed in to the court
probably late today. Between 160 and
ITO persons, residents in almost everv
section of the country, are named In
the indictments. Seditious conspiracy
the crime nearest to treason within the
definition Of the criminal code, is
charged. This offense Is punishable by
six years Imprisonment or a $4,000
fine, or both.
The indictments are understood to
be based upon revelations brought to
light in the recent country wide seiz-
ure by federal authorities Of documents
and correspondence Of the I. w. w. in
approximately fifty towns and cities,
Seized Papers Reveal Plots.
These documents are understood ia
have revealed the existence Of q con-
spiracy more far reaching in its scope
than any yet unearthed to embarrass
the government in the prosecution OF
the war by resistance to the draft law,
by causing labor disturbances, by
burning crops and forests and in num-
erous other ways.
q A comparatively small coterie OF men
is understood to have directed the en-
tire movement. ar
Il Oficials here feel that in many In
stances the alleged ringleaders Of these
anti war activities are virtually guilty
Of treason, but because Of the narrowed
definition OF treason in the criminal
code and in numerous decisions. 1t was
thought best to ask the grand jury to
and indictments on the broader charge
Of sedition.
