As 10 shaylnn.

When il comes to shaving. we have
the word 9f Piny for il that Scipio
Alricanus was the first man who ever
shaved everyday. Whether Mr.. Afr-
canes shaved himself or was shaved
by barber, pllny does not say, but 1t
may be gathered from certain remarks
OF Talleyrand that this is an important
point i'll any mans habits. Asked If
Napoleon cut his own whiskers, the
great French statesman replied !:
Yes. One born to be a king has
someone to shave him. but they who
acquire kingdoms shave themselves.

No. 2 shaft has begun and is al
ready down eighty feet with the
ore body exposed. Assays across
full width OF the vein average
Sl45 per ton in silver, lead and

The company is installing addi-
tlonal equipment and expects to
start shipping in the early part OF
1920. George l.. Hedges, OF Res

Hill property, two of the largest
and best developed mines in the
district. The wonderfully rich
surface showings on the Reserva-

to the field, and were first made
known to white prospectors by
a dying Indian who had been be-
triended. The Reservation Hill is
chiefly noted for the higherade
silver-lead deposits, while the
principal veins on the Packsaddle
carry silver and gold.

territory have been demonstrated

promises to become one of the
largest yielders of silver. lead and
gold in Nevada before another

posed wholly or in major part of
French and British. says a copyright
dispatch from Cyril Brown to the New
York World.
They will never get me-" he re-
peated several times in an informal
interview today.
I made the wearisome journey to
Wieringen from Amsterdam on the
chance Of catching his ex-reyal high
ness at home, ana in an sunburdeninG
mood. As / drove up to the modest
red brick two-story house I caught
a glimpse of him at his bedroom win
dow changing his pantaloons. Though

saken island unannounced, ne re-
ceived my professional card and sent
word that he would be pleased to
see me, though his time that day
was very limited.

room, the billiard room, containing
a shabby, moth-eaten secondhand
billiard table and two wornout ltath-
er armchairs. A few minutes later
the ex-prince entered wearing a salt
and pepper sporting suit and decided
ly self-conscious OF his changed posi-
ton. After we had chatted a few
minutes his manner became natural
and unaffected; he talked freely and
answered questions readily.
Pulled Cigarette.
Perched on the edge OF the sorry
billiard table, the former prince lit n
cigarette (of a unique brand, the tip
being of thin straw and faced my
informal discrimination. / had
seen his arrival on the dull DEVILS
Island of Wieringen and I observed
that since then he had pulled him

and, in relative solitude. had done
some tall thinking about his situation
and future.
I asked what he thought abou: the
much discussed possibility of being
''eXtradited" with the Kaiser anC
placed on criminal trial.
81 don't give hang about it," he
said in the American phrase, with a
decided English accent. In his next
sentence he explained this real or pre-
tended indifference as to what the
allies might decide to do about his
person.
They'll never get me-" he said
with a quiet smile. They'll never get
me-alive," he repeated.
I asked IT, in view OF his reported
statement that he was innocent Of

world war, he would not welcome a
