It will not be down to the required depth of 500 feet for several months, but when it is finish ed a short crosscut will be run over to the line of the tunnel and headings will be started two ways With three shafts in four headings it is hoped to complete the tunnel sope time next summer.
 The new hoisting shaft just east oi the Edith shaft is complete down to the 140O-foot level except for the con- creting. It has now been concerted down to the 225 foot level.
 Since the first of the month, EXten- sion shipments have aggregated about 300 tons a day. This is the average that the company endeavors to maintain but shipments fell short in June and July becaues of the short age of cars.
 Manager Kingdoc denies that tie company has decided on concrete ccIi- struction for Walnut Park, the new town on tie Hogback lew being grad ed. He says that this point has been only tentatively dis 'lsSed.

OF VERDE K. TRACK BEGINS
 IN SHORT WHILE
Start of Five-mile Railroad
 From Portal of Haulage Tunnel to Shelter at Verde Will be Made in Few Weeks

JEROME, Sept. Laying of track for the five-mile railroad from the United Verde Extension smelter site up to the mouth of the haulage tunnel will be under way in two or three weeks, according to General Manager George Kingdom. Grading for this road will be concluded in about a month.
 This is to be a standard-guage rail road right up into the mine. It is possible, the manager says, that mar row-guage cars will be mounted on standarNguage trucks.
 Only about 600 feet of the 12,00o- foot tunnel has been dug. The Pot ter Construction company, which has the tunnel contract. is rushing work with all possible speed from the DOT tai and also from the 1400-foot level of the mine. The Texas shaft, being sunk below the Dundee-Arizona. is

throughout Montana. The Butte mines have been closed down. With no smelling facilities it would be useless to continue ore shipments.
 This step has left Anaconda, and the largest factor in the worlds cop per mining industry, with a compara- lively small proportion of its plants operating, those still running being the Tooele shelter in Utah, the East Chi cago lead refinery and the Raritan Copper Works. The last mentioned unit operates one of the largest cop per refneries in the country, its capa- city having just been enlarged to monthly yield of 4O.000,00O pounds Of copper, although of late it has been running at 60 per cent of capacity ow- ing to delays in receipt of raw ma terials.
 The Tooele plant, when running full. produces about 100000 pounds of copper and 10,OO0,OO0 pounds oi lead per month.
 Government mediators have been in Butte for the past six weeks in efforts to iron out the differences between the striking miners and the company There was some improvement in this situation with new men being con stantly added to the pay roll, which ln normal times contains 15,0o0 names Then, like a bolt from the blue, trou' ble developed among the smeltermen whose union is entirely separate from the miners union.
 The walkout of the Mill and Smel ter Mems union, leaving the Washoe and Great Falls plants without help forced the management to order the mines closed, and discharge of min CTS who had remained in or had re turned to the company's employ.
 The effect of a complete shutdown in Butte will be to al once remove from the country's mine and smeltel production about 3O,OOO,O0O pounds oi copper monthly at a time when every pound that can be turned out has ar urgent use.
 The Great Falls refinery was closed down several weeks ago and all smel ger product has since been shipped to the New Jersey unit at Raritan.

HOOVER BEGAN AS MINING MAN AND
 REACHED THE TOP
Herbert Hoover, Though an American, Has Had Most of His Experience in Asia, Australia, Europe and South Africa

Although a native born American it is doubtful if many persons in the United States knew until after the out break of the European war, that such a person as Herbert c. Hoover existed. It was a mining engineer that the pres ent food dictator" won his spurs and incidentally a fortune of several mil lions.
 Hoover's first activities in the min ing field were in China where he rep resented the Chinese Engineering cor poration. owning and operating coal mines in that country. There he was at the time of the Boxer uprising in which he took part.
 Later he transferred his activities to Australia where he was successful in lowering materially some operating mining costs in that British depend ency. After a few years Hoover went to London and engaged in the min ing industry on still more extensive scale. assisting in financing some of the British owned mines in Russia and South Africa.
 The Kyshtim copper mine in Siberia and the silver-lead-zinc mine of the Burma corporation in Buram were two of the properties with which he has been identified since their start. In South Africa he was also well known
 Hoover's entrance into Belgian re- lief work. which brought him worlc fame and later landed him as food die tator in Washington, was brought about through the visit to London, where Hoover had his headquarters, of a prominent Belgian, who as direc- tor of the Societe Internationale For estiere ct Miniere du Congo had been associated with the American engih' eer.
 This was shortly after the German outrage of Belgium. Assistance was sought by the Belgian visitor. Hoover at once became interested. The Ie- suit was the formation of the commit tee of Belgian relief with Hoover at its head.
 Always a student, Hoover perform ed what the mining industry always considered a wonderful work Tn the translation several years ago from the Latin of an old writing on mining, Az ricola de re Metalica,' written in l55e' In this he was assisted by Mrs Hoover.

ARMY CHAPLAIN ASKS FOR COOPERATION OF
 STATES CIVILIANS
Mentor of Seventeenth Caval- " Points Out Some of the Needs of a Military Unit to Be Supplied by People

Chaplain George R. Longbrake, Sev- enteenth cavalry. U. s. A., was in Bis bee last week looking into the forms of amusement and entertainment of fered the enlisted men of the army in the district. Chaplain Longbrake's task is a hard one just at present, for in addition to the men of the Seven teenth he is looking after the soldiers of the Tenth and the Eleventh field artillery As yet chaplains have not been assigned to these regiments.
 Looking after the spiritual welfare of the men in khaki is but small part of a chaplain's task in the ser vice. It is essential to the efficiency of the army that the soldiers are pro vided with clean amusement and en- tertainment, and Chaplain Longbrake discussed this side of the military life at Camp Harry J. Jones in Douglas.
 Since establishing a reading, writ ing and game room in the Enlisted Mems club" he said, i've have found that between 1900 and 1700 men make use of it daily. In addition, between 400 and 500 more letters are mailed each day than were mailed before this arrangement for the men was made.
 "Of course it is a problem keeping the men supplied with stationery and we are dependent on the public in this respect. I can think of no finer or bet ter way for the people in Bisbee to do their part than to aid by keeping these soldiers who are so near them in touch with their homes"
 Chaplain Longbrake then explained that The Daily International at Doug ! las was collecting a fund for this pur- pose He himself can handle no mo- ney. However, he is willing to re- | ceive and to turn over any checks made out to that paper for any amount from one dollar up, and he urges upon ! everyone the importance of this work.
 We are specially anxious to secure | good books and fairly recent maga- | zines," he added. Tn almost every home there are a few books and a few magazines which can well be spared and devoted to the cause of making these soldiers happy by giv- ing them something to read during their spare time"
 Any books or magazines should be | addressed to the Chaplain, express prepaid, and sent to Douglas.
 An interesting fact in connection with the entertainment of the men at Camp Jones is the fact that they devote enough money out of their small salaries to make amusements almost self-sustaining. This is remark able, for all of their moving pictures are new and of high class, and a proportional charge is made for them while at the same time many of the men are sending the most of their money to their families back home.' .'
 Chaplain Longbrake is a sincere earnest worker and his plea should not go unheeded. After all, these sol diers of God fight just as hard battles in their own way as do the soldiers oi the ranks. Bisbee has gotten behind the "Sammies." Will she get behind the chaplain?

Canning Fruit Without Sugar.

Fruits for use in pie or salads or as
stewed fruit can be put up or canned
without the use of any sugar at all, &C
cOrding to the canning specialists of
the Department. They, therefore, ad-
wise those who, because of the high
price Of sugar, have been thinking of
reducing the amount Of fruit they put
up, to can as much of their surplus as
possible by the use Of boiling water
when sugar sirup is beyond their
means. Any fruit, they say, may be
successfully steriliZed and retained in
the pack by simply adding boiling
water instead of the hot sirup. The use
of sugar, of course, is desirable in the
canning OF all kinds of fruits and
makes better and ready-sweetened
product. Moreover, most of the fruits
when canned in water alone do not re-
tain their natural flavor, texture and
color as we'll as fruit put up in sirup
Fruit canned without sugar to be used
for sauces or deserts must be sweet
entd.
Can the product the same day it is
picked. Gull. stem, or seed. and clean
the fruit by placing it in a strainer
and pouring water over it until it is
clean. Peck the product thoroughly
in glass j2ls or tin cans until they are
full; use the handle of a tablespoon
wooden ladle, or table knife for pack
ing purposes. Pour over the fruit boil
ing water from a kettle, place rubbers
and caps in position, partially seal j.
using glass jars, seal completely if US
ing tin cans. Place the containers in a
sterilizinS vat such as a wash boiler
With false bottom, or other receptacle
mproVlsed for the purpose. 1t using a
hot water bath outfit, process for 90
minutes; count time after the water
has reached the boiling point; the
water must cover the highest jar in
|container. After sterilizing remove
packs, seal glass jars, wrap in paper
to prevent bleaching and store in
dry, cool place.
If you are canning in tin cans it will
improve the product to plunge the
cans quickly into cold water immedi-
ately after sterilization. When using
steam pressure Gamer instead of the
hot water bath, sterilize for 10 min
utes with five pounds of steam pres
sure Never allow the pressure to 20
over 10 pounds.

Mechanics Needed i'm Navy.

The United States Navy needs
large number of mechanics to I'LL It's
complement to the newly authorized
strength of 10000 men. There is a
special need of machinists, plumbers,
blacksmiths, carpenters, and shlp-ht-

Young men going into the Navy with
experience in any of these trades,
open to themselves opportunities for
advancement that are not offered eX-
cept on rare occasions in civilian lie.
The pay is good to begin with, and
those showing satisfactory aptitude
are raised to the grade OF Chief Petty
Officer in a very short while.
MachiniSts need not necessarily
have had previous experience on Mar
inc Engines and equipment, but those
having had such experience will, OF
course, be given preference.
There is also an urgent need for
bakers in the Navy, and the recruiting
authorities at Baltimore are especial
ly anxious to hear from young men
experienced in this trade This branch
of the service also pays we'll from the

BID on WOODBINE BRIDGE TOO
HIGH.
Authorities Do Not Accept The Only
Bid Offered. Contractors Must Al
low A Wide Margin OF Profit To
Offset Uncertain War Conditions.

Bids were opened by the County
commissioners of Howard County
Tuesday for the construction of rein
forced concrete bridge of arch design
to span the Patapsco, near WOodbine
station, between Howard and Carroll
counties. The York Bridge Company
of York, Pa were the only bidders
Their bid, when tabulated, amounting
10 $9,1O3.00. An alternate plan of con-
structiOn of cost plus ten per cent.
was submitted by Thomas, Bennett
and Hunter, of this city
The bids were opened in the pre-
sence Of the County Commissioners OF
Carroll county and President, Engin-
Ger Tenney of the State Roads Com
mission, both boards being financially
interested in the cost of the bridge
which is to be borne jOintly-one-halt
by the State and one fourth each by
Howard and Carroll counties.
The commissioners were of unanim-
Gus opinion that the bids were too
high and will confer with the State
Roads Commission with a view to re-
vising the plans and either roadvertise
for proposals or let the work out on a
percentage b>sis.
Many practical builders are of the
opinion that the latter plan is the
cheapest IT the present time, because
of the fact that contractors are forced
to allow for a wide margin Of profit on
account of the uncertainty Of market
conditions. delivery of material and
probable scarcity of labor all due to
the war.
The plans for the WoOdbine bridge
call for single arch. GO foot span and
