BY a coincidence which may be a
good omen, big strike of rich bonan-
"a ore was made on the Lady Frank
lin group at Kingston, N. M, just at
the time when the value of silver was
at high mark.
The option on the principal prop
critics of the Organ district taken by
the Phelps-Dodge Company has been
taken up by the American Smelling

An immediate payment of 100000 was
made.
The Oaks Company is now mining
and milling SIT ore on the Deep Down
mine. one of their Central group. This

they are maintaining a regular pro-
duction. Auto truck transportation
to mill Is under consideration, as there
are not enough burros in camp to
handle the production.

ONE WAY OF RAISING MONEY
Governments, In NapoIeonlc Wars,
Made Counterfeit Coins to Finance
Raids on Enemy.

Numerous methocs have been
adopted from time to time for supple
menting the currency of the various
countries engaged in war, but 1t is
scarcely possible that the powers Will
be forced again to the expedients that
were often essential in the old days.
Prior to Napoleon's 1912 campaign,
for instance, the Paris gMdnrmes
made raid one night on a house in
the Plalne Montrouge, and discovered
manufactory of false notes. Quite
n sensation was caused when, on tho
following day, the police minister
made the announcement that the man
ufactory had been started "by order
of the emperor" The false notes,
which were Austrian and Russian,
instead of French, were intended for
use against the enemy on the Russian
expedition. but the bulk of them came
to grief during the great retreat.
The duke Of Wellington was respon-
sible for Il similar stroke of business
during the Peninsular war. Badly In
need of gold when about to invade
France, he conceived the iden of hunt
ing out some counterfeit coIners from
the ranks. A number of these gentry
were Forthcoming, and they were or
dered by the great general to exercise
their evil art by transforming English
sovereigns into louis dor and napo-
Icons.

Keep Windows Open All Time.

Get into the habit of living In
house with all the windows open,
rain or shine--night and day. You
can't possibly get too much fresh air.
The very fact that people say their
houses are damp and chilly shows that
the windows have not been open
enough. says prominent health au-
thority.
Damp houses come from not having
enough air to dry them out. Even on
the rainy days it were better to open
wide the windows and let the fresh air
In and even a little rain-than to shut
the windows down. stopping the en-
trance of fresh air.
The healthiest people In the world
are the savages, and they live out Of
doors In the rain as well as In the
sunshine. Don't be afraid of fresh air
at any time.

| two thousand sabers. and they were
stormed Mt by terrific artillery fusil-
fade, but their isolated attacks were
magnificent In courage and so effective
they proved to the experts that the
day OF charging by cavalry in mass had
not yet ended.
When Gnllifet's horse were exhaust
ed, however, the Germans advanced in
charge which extended over a front
of almost two miles. wimpfren, In a
desperate counter stroke, cleared the
Germans out of Bazeilles and Balan,
and for the moment the road to escape
seemed open. What Wimpffen did not
know was that another Prussian corps
stood waiting behind the gap.
Galloping back to the town to find
the emperor and implore him to put
himself Mt the head of all available
re-enforcements, Wimpffen was aston
ished to see n white flag displayed
| from the church tower. The emperor,
who during the early hours of the fight
Ing had exposed himself fearlessly to
death, had been overcome by physical
pain and exhaustion. had abandoned
hope and had offered his personal sur
| render to the king of Prussia, at the
same time ordering the white flag to
| be hoisted.
1t was torn down mt the moment of
Its appearance by Colonel Fauve, but
1t went up again a short time later
when the Prussians were battering at
the western gate. It remained for
Wlmpffen only to make terms for the
surrender of his army. Thus passed
into captivity 1900 French soldiers
with 55S guns. The cost to the VIC
tors for this victory was 5000 men.
The French killed and wounded num-
bered 1900. 1t is indicative of the
decentralization among the French that
this figure is 1000 less than the cost
of victory to the Germans at Woerth,
although In that case the number of
French actually engaged was one-half
that at Sedan. The day of the French
mountebank emperor was done. There
followed dreadful days of the COM
mune. And from 1t emerged the mag
nifcent France we now know.

No Adxice Given

An inclination to advise is not bad
trait In character. even when youth
Is passed. 1t shows a keen interest
In human affairs. large and small. and
a willingness to accept responsibility.
The consent which life extracts from
some men and more women to let the
world go Its own way. to lay no res
trimming hand upon the shoulder of
friend or acquaintance. means that the
handspring Of the nature has been
broken, and that the whole character
has become passive. 1t Is a strange
attitude, witnessing to a great deal of
suffering, but accompanied very often
by strong sense of humor. But most
of those who refrain always from ad-
vising refrain out Of pure seifshness.

Denver.-The Industrial Commits
sion made its findings and recon-
mendations following the investiga-
ton into the grievances presented to
1t by the United Mine Workers en-
ployed by the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company. The commission recon-
mended that the scale of hand mining
in the mines OF the c. f. & |. in the
Canon district be increased cents
per ton so that the scale in this dis
trict viii equalize with the scale at
Walsenburg and Trinidad.
The commission found that all of
the other grievances as presented by
| the miners were trivial, unimportant
| and not entitled to be classed as griev-
| ances, and which could have been
promptly. easily and fairly adjusted
between the employees and the en-
ployers through the channels provided
by the company's Industrial plan"
The commission finds that the
question of recognition of the union
is one with which the Industrial Com
mission has nothing to say, that the
scope of the commissions authority
is limited to the question of wages,
hours and working conditions
1t charged the miners with bad
faith, from patriotic standpoint, in
| demanding at such a time the recog-
milton OF the union as the only alter
native to declaring a strike, and con-
cluded that prior to May l, 1917, when
the controversy began, the average
daily wage of miners in the Fremont
| district was equal to or slightly in
excess of the average daily wage paid
men in the employ of the company in
the Trinidad and Walsenburg districts.
With the exception of the grant of
the increase in wages in the Canon
district, the report finds for the oper-
ators all the way through.
