Miner KILLED In Manhattan


Theodore Zunnini was instantly
r;,led at Manhattan recently by a
bucket of ore falling down a shaft
and striking him on the spine. The

ment, which was made last Sun
day, the 9Th instant, and consisted
of 40 bars of gold and silver bull
lion, weighing 67,328 ounces, and
having an estimated valuation of
$74,O6O.
The tonnages received by the mill
from it's main customers, the Res
cue, Halifax, Montana, North Star,
Midway and miscellaneous shippers,
amount to approximately o%ne-third
the weekly run at the West End
plant, the balance, or about two
thirds, being derived from company
operations in West End ground, the
Ohio territory, and the ore in dis
pute between the West End and the
Jim Butler Tonopah companies.
The development work in every
portion of the property is proceed
ing in about the usual manner.
The drift to the west on the III
foot level in disputed territory is
making excellent progress, and
should break through in the next
week.
Halifax-TOnOpah
The Halifax Tonopah Mining
company, on its 1O00-foot level,
continues to disclose excellent in
dications of opening up an import
ant ore showing. The small streak
which was encountered last week
in the cross-cut to the north on this
level has developed into a 6-inch
width of very good grade ore, and
development work is n W being
prosecuted along its strike to as
certain the possibilities.
In the other workings. those on
the 18th and the 170O-foot levels,
there has been no particular
change. The cross-cut towards the
east on the upper level is being con-
tinued and still shows streaks of
quartz containing some values;

has been resumed and is now max
ing the usual progress.
North Star Mine
The usual progress has been
made at the North Star on the
1OO0-foot intermediate, both in the
cross-cut and in the drift on the
vein. The new work has been
started east of the old Wine on the
Macdonald vein on the 1O5O-foot
level, and is making steady head
way. The 1850 intermediate drift
on the hanging wall and the stope
on the same level are looking ex-
c%eptionally good, according to re-
port.
Another carload of ore was ship
ped from the mine to the West End
mill, amounting to the regular ton
mage. The ore contained In the

ONE OF WARS MOST CRYING
NEEDS IS EDUCATED NURSES

New York. May 1.-THE educated.
intelligent nurse Is one OF the war s
most crying needs.
This is the opinion OF Annie Good
rich. federal Inspector OF military
hospitals. president Of the American
Nurse association as expressed today
in an interview.
filled with hundreds Of soldiers said
Miss Goodrich. Il am inspired. Some
times I am almost oppressed by the
opportunity for education and help
that lies in the hands OF nurses who
come in daily contact with these men
Some Of the nurses who lack social
vision. never realize the splendid op-
portunity for service Think Of all
that could be done for our soldiers
through direct or indirect guidance
and help by women OF intelligence
and understanding.
"But il is not only the soldiers
whom the women are guarding" Miss
Goodrich emphasized. through the
children who viii be the next genera
ton they guard the future. And upon
the nurse rests the responsibility OF
raising public health standards. II
is a pitiful thing that Il should have
taken the catastrophe Of war to make
the faculties Of colleges and educated
women see the great verities OF a
nurse work. We should have now
in this country 10000 public health
nurses In New York city, instead OF
the thousand OF visiting nurses that
are urgently needed. there were last
year less than 200. The number re-
Quired will increase steadily as the
war goes on. for all the evils that we
constantly combat in peace times are
multiplied by war"

Chicago, Ill. May 1.-THE nations
industrial manpower has not suffered
serious depletion as a result OF the
United states's first year in the world
war, so far as indicated in recent
surveys Of. the general labor situation,
conducted by the United States en-
ployment service and the Illinois free
employment bureau. Except in certain
skilled trades these bureaus find there
is no marked shortage Of labor. the
chief problem at present being distri-

Labor Turnover Heavy.
The labor turnover so far this year
has been greater than in previous
years. This is attributed to some
extent to unusual opportunities for
individual betterment offered by
plants working on war contracts
on an average 100000 persons are
obtaining employment through the
Chicago district office OF the federal
bureau, as compared with total OF
495. 900 during the last fiscal year
This huge increase is accounted Ter
by the recent reorganization Of the
bureau for service as the national ma
cEfnery for the mobilization and dis
tribution OF the cOuntry's labor. As
such il has handled the applications
