Pueblo. Colo.-EnouSh tetanus dock
Jaw germs to infect 1000 persons are
believed to have been distributed in
Pueblo and Pueblo county during the
past few days through the indiscrim-
mate sale OF court plasters by an old
man. The police, sheriff's office and
federal secret service agents are look
ing for the old man. who was last
heard Of at Swallows. twenty miles
from this city.
Otto Allen, a street car man, 10 re-
sponsible for the discovery Of the poi
soned court plasters. His wife bought
one of the plasters from the old man
two days ago and when Allen returned
home at night she told him about the
purchase. Allen, who had read OF =
Kansas City case where three persons
are said to have died from lockjaw a.
the result Of using infected court plas-
tiers. Immediately became suspicious.
He took the plaster to the police and
the city health department at once
began a chemical test OF the adhesive
mixture on the cloth. The compound
was found to be literally alive with
tetanus germs and would NO doubt
have infected and caused the death
OF any person who used the plaster.
AS soon as the result OF the chem
zeal test was finished, an alarm was
sent out warning all persons who had
purchased plasters from the old man
not to use them under any circum-
stances, but to send them to the police
department for analysis.
II is estimated that the old man sold
at least 1000 plasters in the city OF
Pueblo and Pueblo county. The police
and sheriff's office suspect a German
plot in the sale Of the poison.laden
court plasters, but whether the old
man who is selling them has knowl-
edge OF the diabolical scheme or 10
merely an innocent tool OF men higher
up has not been determined by the
officials who are investigating the
cnse.

GlLPIN-EUREkA MINE

Manager Clark, Of the GilpinEur-
eka Mining company has furnished
US with the gross receipts from the
mine for the past year, that amount
to $32, 566.32.
The streak of ore on the 6oo-foot
level is the largest ever found in the
mine, being some six feet wide, and
like all other mines, confirms the
theory that the deeper you go, the
more pronounced are our ore bodies.
Acting upon this theory, the COM
pany is about to sink the main shaft
a distance of 200 additional feet.
This mine has produced largely
from it's surface workings in the past,
and undoubtedly the sinking Of the
shaft will reveal larger bodies of ore
than have heretofore been exposed.

General Hall came to the then

THREE BILLION DOLLARS
IN MINERAL PRODUCTION

In 1880, when the output OF the
mines OF the United States barely ex-
ceeded In value one-third Of a billion
dollars, the first Director Of the Unit
ed States Geological Survey made
this prophecy: 1.-The mineral indus
tries of the United States will soon
reach an annual money yield of a
thousand million dollars of value"
This mark was in fact attained in
1899.
Speaking before the American Min
Ing Congress in November, 1907, an.
other Director Of the Geological Sur
vey referred to the probability that
that year would mark an epoch in
the mineral industry by reason of
the mineral output reaching two bill
lion dollars in value, and later the
complete statistics verified this state
ment. Now less than 10 years later
the advance estimates submitted by
the Geological Survey to the Secre-
tary Of the Interior indicate that the
total value Of mineral production in
1916 may reach the three billion dol
lar mark.
