JenisOn Realty Review

The manner in which the real es- tate market is holding its own, in spite of the dullness supposed to be inseparable from summer, and other adverse conditions, shows the vitality of Birmingham. Our sales, rental and mortgage loan departments have all been busy during the past week, with pending business assuring con tinued activity.
 The continued growth of Birming- ham and conditions in the building trades and labor market have brought us to what is known as the 3loft" type of buildings These are intended to house several manufacturers who oc- cupy one or more floors, according to their needs, and are thus enabled to save substantially on rent and other wise reduce their joint overhead. These ''loft" buildings have proved good investments in the large cities and they will undoubtedly pay in Birmingham. We have several sites which are available for this purpose and will be pleased to go into the matter in detail with investors.
 Far-sighted people are TOW looking ahead for permanent "homes" s"-res- idences for their families and build- ings of their own for their industrial or business operations. We are fully in sympathy with this movement and are always glad to cooperate with it in helping to get locations and facili- tating the construction.
 As matter of historical interest we point to the fact that it is now ssThe First National Bank of Fair- field,' and that the Ensley-F Fairfield pay roll belt enjoys the distinction of having one of the three. national banks in the Birmingham district

A preliminary estimate of the pro-
duction of metals in Oregon in 1919,
compiled by Charles G. Yale. of the
San Francisco office of the United
States Geological Survey Depart
ment of the Interior, shows de-
crease in the gold and lead produced
but an increase in the silver and
copper. According to the mines re-
port the output of gold in 1918 was
S1,27O,465 and the estimated output
in 1919 is s1,O72.6e1, a decrease OF
about S197,S04. The output OF sill
YER in 1918 was 1O7,S23 fine ounces,
valued at S1O7,323; in 1919 it was
211,523 fine ounces. valued at s2S4,-
100. The output of'copper in 1913
was 2.451,O16 pounds, valued at
S234,790. The output Of copper in
1918 was 2.451,O16 pounds. valued
at S6O5. 5.401; in 1919 It was 2,G37-
IA pounds, valued at S501,355. an
increase in quantity Of 1S769S.
pounds and decrease in value Of
$10l,Ol6. The output OF lead in
1915 was 1O,6O1 pounds, valued at
S753; the output in 1919 was 1000
pounds, valued at s114. a decrease
in quantity OF S,6O1 pounds and in
value OF s639.
Returns from inquiries TO post
masters, merchants. dust-buyers and
Others reveal the fact that many
mines in Oregon were idle during
1919. Higher wages in other indus
tries attracted miners away from
their regular operations. and costs
we're so high that the smaller min
ing operations we're improbable.
Most Of the Oregon placers are
worked by the hydraulic system. bat
the gold output Of the dredges is
greater than that Of all other forms

Chief of Police Hatcher arrested
young boy yesterday claiming to
be 16 years old, who was accused
of having forged check. This boy
had come to Ashland from Seattle
about a month ago and had been
washing dishes in Curtis restaurant
in order to secure money with which
to get back home. According to
his story his mother had sent him
money several times, but for some
reason the lad had failed to receive
it and it had been returned to the
sender. Becoming desperate the
boy picked up blank check book
and, it is stated, drew check, forg-
ing the name Of one of the walters
1t the restaurant. r. w. Flackus
of the Shasta grocery cashed the
check for the boy, it is claimed
when the forgery was detected.

OMAHA, Neb.-Some days ago
surgeons at st. Joseph's hospital at
Omaha took the heart out of Steve
Zakich, an Austrian, who had shot
himself, removed the bullet from the
heart, where it was imbedded, re-
placed the organ in Zakich's body
and sewed up the incision. Three
days later zakich ate solid food and
is on the road to recovery. He is
practically out of danger.
The operation was performed last
Saturday morning after the bullet
had been in Zakich's body nearly SO
hours. When surgeons arrived af-
ter Zakichs fired the bullet into his
heart they though he would die in
a few minutes. After he had sur
yived SO hours the operation was
performed.
In performing the operation the
surgeons cut through three ribs and
exposed the heart. DR.. Simanck
reached into the opening, took the
pulsing heart in his hand, lifted it
clear of the body and removed the
bullet, after which he replaced the
heart where it belonged.

LONDON.-(By Mail Docs a
husbands preference for golf, in
stead of his wife's company, consti-
tute legal cruelty
That is one OF the knotty questions
Justice Shearman. host of legal
talent. and London newspapers are
striving to answer. And, inciden-
tally, the administrator of the law
must decide whether golfing propen-
stiles of a husband entities a neg
lected wife to separate maintenance
or divorce.
The problem grew out of the sep
aration suit OF Mrs. Madeline Violet
Hadden. wife of Harvey Hadden.
who in her petition alleged that her
husband spent practically all of his
spare moments on the golf course
instead Of at home.
Hadden, who is quite wealthy.
with yearly income of about $780,
600, has employed an imposing corps
of legal talent, including Hon
man Gregory, NJ. p, and others.
all Of whom are ardent devotees OF
the links. Even the Judge has con-
fessed being acquainted with the
considerable attractions Of the golf
course at Bodleigh salterton" where
the defendant is alleged to have
spent the time demanded by his wife
