$263,200 Appropriation
i to Pay Damages Done
By Munitions Explosion
BIZ Associated Press.
WASHINGTON,

WASHINGTON. Jan. 29-The
house of representatives has adopted
an amendment to the urgent deficien-
cy bill, appropriat lg $26S,200 for the
payment of 2,7S0 c2lims of persons In
New Jersey whose property was de-
stroyed in the T. A. Gillespie Loading
Company's plant explosion at Morgan,
n. J., on October 4 and s.
The claims are those OF poor per-
sons and immediate settlement was
urged by the war department which
has been investigating losses caused
by the disaster. The larger claims of
corporations and other business Inter
esta VIII be considered later by a co1-
gress'onal committee.
A final vote on the deficiency BILL
which also Iepeals S400, 200 in
appropriation and authorization for
war purposes was not reaclcd.
Tenney Urged Speed
The settlement of claims OF poorer
persons was urged upon the house
committee by Col. c. H. Tenney,
president Of the, ordnance board to
determine the claims and their ad-
justment and settlement. He said
that the board had decided to sccure,
If possible, relief for these smaller
claimants before the larger industrial
claims were taken up so that as much
hardship as possible could be avert
ed.
Though this bill will probably be
passed within short time, the
claims will not be adjusted immedi-
ately insofar as President Wilson's
signature Is required to make the bill
valid. Thus the measure must go to
France to receive his signature and
return, all of which will take, II l.
believed, about one month.
The average figure for these small
er claims is 500. says Col. Tenney
comes to about $500. A list of some
CT the larger claims given by Col
Tenrey shows the Raritan Copper
Works claiming $4,000; the Penn

FLOUR MILL FOR OROVILLE

At the Community Club luncheon
given at the Hotel de Grubb last
Thursday at noon the ball was set
rolling that may result in Orovi!le
securing a 5O-barrel flour mill. G..
NJ. Schamberger, who made a special
trip to Spokane and the neighbor-
hood in order to secure data regarding
a new model flour mill that is being
tried out with the greatest satisfac-
tion of those interested in milling,
made most encouraging report of
mis- observation. At the close of his
report Mr.. Schamberger stated that he
was so thoroughly convinced that the
mill he investigated was just what
was needed here that he offered TO
subscribe 81, 900 toward the necessary
fund to secure mill. Several pres
ent offered to take $500 in stock,
others $3.50. others $3.50 and still 9TH
ers 800, until the aggregate sub.
scriptions right off the bat among the
comparatively small number present
amounted to over $1,000. The PROPOSE
tion is to build a mill to start with
to cost 100000, the building being so
constructed that further units can be
added as the growing business may
require. A flour mill is needed at this
point and would prove an important
factor in the growth of the place, and
from the present outlook it is evident
that the mill will be supplied in time
to handle next years crop.

MAKING A NINE

Chas. Arkins, who Is developing
what gives promise of being most
excellent mining proposition near
Nighthawk, was in Oroville over Tues
day. Mr.. Atkins has his mill COM
pieted so far as construction is con-
terned and is now waiting the arrival
OF machinery to equip the same, which
vac ordered from Denver weeks ago
lie had ordered one compressor and
has just increased that order to a
second one. A force of men are doing
development work at present with
hand drills, which will later be super
Ccded by power drills. Assay r,turns
On the ore so far encountered are
very satisfactory, the only question
now to be determined Is as to the
G:.antity of ore that can be extracted.
MIR. Atkins states that tn. outlook
for mining is mono the brightest just
at the present time. The Trail smelt-
er will take no more silver-lead ores
for treatment from this side of the
line. This exclusion of ores from this
state may be but temporary ar
The rather discouraging
feature from the miners point OF
view just now is the decline in the
price of copper and lead. Mr.. Atkins
is fearful that further decline might
have the effect of suspending mining
operations in this locality for the time
being at least

EXHIBITION OF MIND READING

One of the stunts that Poluhni, the
illusipnist who fills the vs5ill for the
first night during the Chautauqua
Festival is advertised to perform is to
have a committee of two ladies drive
to some distant part of the town
write letter, hide it, when he after
wards will, while blindfolded, drive
TO the spot find the letter and return
ing to the point from which the start
was made read off the contents of that
letter. At noon Tuesday committee
consisting of Mrs. c. C. Hedger apd
Miss Pauline Davis started from the
postoffice in a car driven by E. f..
Hobbs and going as far as the east
end of Central avenue hid a letter
written by Miss Davis in the weeds at
the foot of telephone pole. Upon
the return of the car Poluhni blind
folded took the wheel, drove to the
spot and found the letter. Moreover,
while on the way he described where
the letter had been hidden and further
stated that the committee had thought
of hiding 1t at another place Re-
turning he stood in the street and
blindfolded as he was read the con-
tents of the letter He made a mis-
take in two works but what he substi-
tuted made no difference in the tenor
of the letter. Miss Davis had written
"Cleverly done. The town appreci-
ates you ability" While Polunni
read, This cleverly done. The town
appreciates your efforts" There was
a large crowd present and it goes
without saying that the crowd was
mystified by the uncanny power of
reading the inmost thoughts Of the
human mind as exhibited by this man.
Call it what you may, mind reading
telepathy, or what not to the layman
it is an unsolvable mystery, although
Poluhni says it is easy enough if you
only know how.

removed all of the snow which usually
remains to add moisture to the soil
for spring and early summer use.
This is particularly true of the water
sheds of the small streams of the
State where direct drainage cannot be
made available.
Labor conditions are the reverse
from last year and there is plenty of
help to put the canals and distribution
systems in the best possible condition
Many of you have been getting along
without adequate controlling works.
This should be remedied at once.
Unless we are fortunate in having
an unusual amount of precipitation
during. the balance of the winter, the
coming season is again going to show
a new minimum stream flow. When
deficiencies occur the effects of the
aridity are notably increased and an
exceptionally larger amount of water
is needed.
1t is hoped that the officers of all
irrigation companies and owners or
managers of small bitches will take
this matter up with the farmers to the
end that tlreir laterals and lands NAV
be in readiness to receive the water
early in the season so thai the great
est amount of water may be stored
in the soil. This together with proper
will materially reduce the
soil and crop demand later in the
season. MARVIN CHASE,
