Numbers WIN Be Reversed and Pento-
ga Added to Alpha District

The meeting OF the township board
OF Mastodon township was held last
Tuesday at which change was made
in the arrangement OF the precincts
OF this township. Heretofore. the first
precinct has been at the Dunn mine
and II included with the Dunn the To-
caiity about Pentoga. Precinct No. 2
included the village OF Alpha and In
cluded all the balance OF the territory
not included In Precinct No. /.
BY the new arrangement the num-
bers are reversed. Alpha will be No.
! in the future and the Dunn No. 2.
In addition there was added TO the
No. / precinct the Pentoga community
as It is much more convenient for the
residents OF that section to get to AL
pha than It is TO the Dunn mine.
The change will not affect the town
ship excepting that the Pentoga voters
will not have so far TO go to vote in
the future.

MINES WANT MEN

The mines at Alpha are increasing
their underground forces as we'll as
doing considerable surface work and
men are wanted in Alpha. Supt Per-
kins OF the Balkan says that he can
use number OF men both on surface
and underground. The Balkan is in
creaslng its operations right along and
expects to make a very good output
the coming year.
The Judson mine started TO hoist
ore last Tuesday and is now in shape
TO add to its forces right along. The
Judson has made excellent progress
in getting the lower workins cleared
OF sand II is expected that as soon
ns the mining operations get in full
swing there will be many more men
needed at this property,

METHOD A SUCCESS

The so-called stencil method OF
notifying in case OF danger under
ground men to get out OF the mine OF
at least 10 come to the shaft is meet
ing with great success II has been
tried out successfully by Frank Bots
ford, Copper Country hoy and the
representative of Pickands Mather &
Co. at one Of his mines, the Bennett
at Kewatin. This method consists Of
putting IN the proper way some pung-
ent odor into the overflow air pipes
from the compressor so that every
miner will be attracted by It and know
al once what II means. II is impos-
sible to use electric connection as the
men stopping and exploring move a
round so much.
The liquid used Is methyl mercaptan
which Is colorless with a strong, re-
pulslve. garlic odor that startles one
into a knowledge OF its presence very
quickly.
Manager Botsford has ordered the
necessary apparatus for the didusion
OF the odor for the Bennett mine.

CHECKING UP

Last December manufacturers OF
leather goods. including those who
make shoes. insisted the high price OF
their products was due mainly to the
shortage OF leather.
Shortage OF leather presupposes a
shortage OF hides, animal skins from
which leather is tanned
Now comes along the u S. Bureau
OF Markets with the statement that on
Dec. 81 there were more hides and
skins on hand than there were the
year before. American warehouses
held IL per cent more cattle hides; 81
per cent more calf hides; 1876 per cent
more horse hides; 1876 per cent more
kangaroo hides and 116 per cent more
kid hides.
AT that day there were millions OF
hides in storage, not being made into
leather This would cause one to be-
lieve that the leather shortage was
nothing but an attempted manipula-
tion of the skin and hide market in
the interest of spectators.

Outstanding features OF the Chicago
automobile show. according TO dealers
who have returned from the Windy
City, were general conservativeness in
chassis and body design for 1920. and
the wide breech that exists between
the public demand for automobiles and
the limit OF production by manufacture
ers OF most standard cars.
The question asked OF every factory
representative at the show was Can
your plant meet the demand for it's
product?" and the answer was invari-
ably In the negative. Everything that
transpired at the show indicated that
there will be market shortage of
automobiles next spring, and local
dealers OF several OF the standard cars
expect their 1920 allotment will be
cut from ten TO twenty-five per cent.
The slogan at the show. among sales
men and factory men. was get your
order before spring" and general
warning sent from the Chicago show
TO the people OF the United States who
contemplate motoring I'm a new car
next year is: "Buy your car now,
Don't wait until spring. or you will not
ge able to get It."
Vivid colors and freakish looking
bodies are practically tabooed by de-
signers in their 1920 products. In fact
there are few radical changes in either
body or chassis design from the 1919
model.
The growing demand OF the, public
for closed cars, or cars with equip
ment that they may be easily and
quickly closed in. was noticeable at
the show The coupe and sedan are be- |
coming more popular with the motor
ing public and features OF nearly ev- I
cry exhibition at the show were the |
closed models. New types oftops and
detachable curtains designed TO con
vert an open car into a sedan or coupe |
were shown in considerable number. !
The rapidly increasing demand for
motor vehicles were plain
ly reflected at the show. Not many |
years ago. dealer remarked, II would
be impossible to find more than eight
or ten small auto trucks exhibited at
the Chicago show, but this year the
display OF trucks and tractors was one n
Df the most attractive and important
)f all
Trucks were shown ranging from
,ne-half ton TO seven tons, and trac-
ors up to the ten-ton size were ex-
iibited One OF the features of the
ruck exhibit. was a flve-ton chassis
equipped with 4Sx12 pneumatic tires.

question of prices settled reservations
will be turned into contracts and 1t Is
expected large amount Of business

The earnings OF mining property In
the Lake Superior district have been

DIAMOND DRILL WORKING

A diamond drill belonging TO the
Cole & Mcdonald people was put at
work on the surface at the Judson
mine last week. The reasons for the
putting OF this drill at work are not
given out but II is supposed that some
test work is necessary in order to plan
out the mining operations TO best ad-
vantage.
The drill is located to the south OF
the cave and is manned by workmen

A steamer being crushed before your eyes by the ice; mammoth seals swimming within arms reach; visit to the most southern point of civili. 2ation; battling through ice-floes and many other thrilling things were wit messed last night by newspapermen and other invited guests of Manager Spickett at the Palace Theatre. A special run of The Bottom of the | World" pictures was given, this big feature coming to the Palace next week
 "The Bottom of the World dss- cribes the dash of Sir Ernest Shack teton to the South Pole in the ship Endurance.

 From an educational standpoint. "The Bottom of the World" will in terest and thrill all people, both old and young. From a scenic stand point, something never before seen will be shown. The pictures of the various scenes of the Southland are clear and without static. When in such part of the world and with temperature so low, they are wonder full.
 There are many little comedy scenes in "The Bottom of the World" which are new.

s2OWER OF WEALTH
 1 IN GOtDWYN STORY apONDS OF LOVE"

Wealth and it's power to foster de- ception in family relationships, is the unseen motive behind the new Gold wyn picture, Bonds of Love-" in which Pauline Frederick will be pre- sented at the Palace Theatre tonight and Friday. This underlying fact is not revealed until the end of the story but on it the story rests.
 Early in the life of Daniel Cabot's first wife she had been in love with an attorney, Barry Sullivan. But her parents had forced her to marry q man she didn't love. Subsequently her lover acquired a large practice, and the relationship which her mar riage had thwarted. was resumed clandastinely. After her death, how ever. her husband married again and it was the second wife who dis covered her predecessors infidelity But the second Mrs. Cabot, loving her step-child, refused to divulge the secret she had uncovered.
