All records for rum-raiding in Ke-
nosha were shattered Saturday even
ing when Chief of Police Logan, as
sisted by Capt. Clausen, Secretary
Meissner, and Detectives Rock, Breidt,
and McCluskey, sponged up twelve al
legged GASES within the space of sin
81 huor. The officers swooped down
upon the moonshiners without mo-
ment's warning and salvaged enough
of the disappearing spirits to insure at
least five indictments under the Sew
erson law.
Quick as the raiders were, "Slim"
Berry was quicker at the Kenosha ho-
tel, where the chief and his aids ap-
peared shortly after eight o'clock
Just as the stars came out the moon
shine went down the sink behind the
bar. At least this is the story told by
the raiders, who have already sworn
out a warrant charging Berry with
violation of that section of the Blaine
act which prohibits destruction of evil
dence. They intend to base their
charges on the odor above the empty
sink and to "test the law" if necessary
to prove the bar-keeper's guilt.
"And yet" one of them admitted
this morning, sit remains to be seen
whether scent can be. turned into
hundred dollars and costs"
The raiders were more successful at
Jesse, Minkowsky's old place at the
corner of Park and Main streets. Here
they catapulted into the center of
lively little party and confscated
half a pitcher of hard liquor before
the panic-stricken jewellers or the
equally startled bar-keeper could pour
it down either Threats or drain-pipe.

Swinging around the circle, the Of
ficers next stormed the cafe at An
derson's park. They found "quiet Gus
toners" drinking homemade beer"
the alcoholic content of which is yet
to be determined Several bottles of
the 'innocent-looking stuff" was
bought to the station but the pro-
prietor of the place was not taken
into custody.

chief commented this morning, "but
it seems to have pretty strong lunge
to it. If it comes from more than the
constitutional per cent of alcohol,
therell be considerable evidence for
the grand jury, because Anderson had
good big supply of the stuff"
The raiders found nothing doing"
at the Brassville Hotel and Hrupka's
place at Schlitz hall. The other thirst
places raided were not made public
Saturday evenings sponge-up was
the first of series of such affairs by
which Chief Logan means to blot out
moonshine in Kenosha. 1t was made
in cooperation with District Attorney
Symmonds who was today busy with
the evidence and the reports pouring
in from the city chemists office.

BELGIAN ACE
DEATH GUARD
1t. Lamard Stands Death
Guard Over Remains OF
Private Rawleigh.
BUDDIES SOUND TAPS

Taking his turn in standing death
watch over the remains of Private
Martin Rawleigh, Lieutenant Emile
Lamard, the Belgian ace who was in
KenOsha on Saturday, joined with Ke-
nosha ex-service men in paying tribute
to the memory of the Kenosha soldier
who gave his all in defense of the
"Stars and Stripes" The incident gave
an added significance to the military
rites with which the remains of Private
Martin Rawleigh were laid to their
final resting place on Saturday after
noon in the family plot in the st.
James cemetery.
Lieutenant Lamard sought this OPP
portunity to act for his nation in
paying a tribute to this brave Ameri-
can and to all Americans who helped
win the Great War.
Takes Turn at Guard.
On Saturday morning at the st.
James church, solemn requiem high
mass was sung over the remains of the
soldier, who died fighting in the Ar
gonne offensive. From the time that
the services closed until the burial
held in the afternoon, former Kenosha
soldiers were to take their turns at
guard at the head and foot of the flag
wrapped casket.
1t. Lamard went to the church to
pay tribute to the dead. He halted
at the dor as he was leaving the
church and rather hesitatingly volun-
teered his services.
"Please and may l ask one favor"
he said to a member of the Kenosha
post of the American Legion. "You
Americans were so brave-I have had
only this little chance to pay it back.
Please and may l take my turn at
guard. I should count it a great
privilege to be allowed to stand guard
for one hour at the casket of one of
the brave Americans"
Buried With All HOnors.
The request was willingly granted
and Lieut.. Lamard, who won fame in
Europe as the "sieve" because he has
seven German bullets buried some
where in him and who unaided put to
flight trio of German airplanes, from
one until two o'clock on Saturday
afternoon stood at the head of the
soldiers :asket.
at is for my country, too" he said.
Belgium, l know, will be glad that
1 took this little way to show how
much we were thankful to those brave
Americans who died for the same cause
fa% which we fought"
~Kenosha service men in uniform
also stood guard over the dead and
formed military escort to take the
remains to the grave Legionnaires
and Troopers joined in paying all tri-
butte to the memory of the Kenosha
soldier. At the st. James cemetery,
firing squad gave final salute as the
remains were being lowered into che
grave while an army bugle corps
sounded taps for the dead soldier.
The services were made even more i'm
pressive by the martial funeral music
furnished by the Simbo band.
The relatives and friends of the
soldier wish to thank all Kenoshans and
the various organizations which joined
in doing tribute to him, who paid the
last full measure of devotion.

RECORD-BREAKING YEAR IN
 VALUE OF MINERAL PRODUCTS

The Geological Survey, Department of the Interior, has published it's pre- liminary summary of Mineral Re sources for the calendar year 1920, a pamphlet of 123 pages, which re- cords for that year as the value of the mineral products of the country the astounding total of $6,707, ,000,00 This value is 20 per cent greater than that of the former record year, 1918, and 45 per cent greater than that of 1919.
 The salient features of the mineral industry in 1920 are set forth in the short introduction. Many of the fig ures are preliminary and some are es- inmates, but the cooperation of those engaged in the mineral industry and the long experience of the Geological Survey in this work give assurance that the estimates represent very nearly the actual production.
 The summary gives in compact form general tables showing the quantity and value of the domestic output of seventy or more mineral products in 1919 and 1920 and the total value of all minerals, by years, since 1880. It also shows the leading minerals tin

But in spite of the concentrated destruction waged again st him, the panther will be on hand for some time yet. Hundreds are kill ed each year, but every spring there are filters of young kittens to fill the depleted ranks.
 Oregon has produced some interest ing and intrepid panther hunters. Hathaway Jones, of Marial, has killed more than one hundred partners dur ing his twenty-nine years of hunting. In five years Jack Warner, of Coos County, killed seventy-five bobcats and twenty-four partners. Jake Fry, of Curry County, has hunted for more than half a century and has killed several hundred bobcats and partners, besides one thousand two hundred and fifty bears. John B. Hammersley, of Gold Hill, is another active hunter with a record of many kills. One woman, Miss Catherine Nodine, who

FINE ORE FOUND
 IN MINERAL RANGE

The Watson and O'Boyle sensation al gold strike, on the Faith group in the Mineral Range, nine miles north of Luning, continues to hold the cen ter of the stage in public interest. Development of the past week has ser we'd to increase the importance of the discovery. The shaft is down to a depth of 20 feet. There has been a material change in the character of the ore and values are increasing with depth. A prominent mining engineer, who inspected the property, stated to a representative of Western Nevada Miner, that taking into consideration present development it is the biggest and most important discovery made in Nevada in years, and that every in dication points to it becoming one of the big producing mines of the state. He says that as depth is being attain ed the character of the ore is under going a change that would indicate that high grade tellurium ore would be opened with a little more depth. The ore being extracted in sinking the shaft is of shipping grade, some of the values said to be going better than $40O per ton. Representatives of several of the big mining compan- ies have been on the ground in an attempt to secure an option on the holdings but the showings are so good that the owners have decided to go deeper before negotiating a deal. From all indications and present de- velopment the new discovery is the real goods and not flivver.
 Another important strike has been made in the same district by c. w.. Ward and Joe Dietz. Their property is located about two miles south of the original discovery in the silver zone of the Silver Chief mine of Dr. D. A. Smith. They opened up high grade lead-stringer few inches wide at the surface, which with only few feet of work has widened to 2a feet. They are now sacking ore for ship ment from this shoot, the average of which is around $260 to $500 per ton. The manner in which their orebody is developing it begins to look like a big "glory hole" proposition.

. SEEKING H0MRsEEKERs

Idaho, Wyoming, Minnesota, west ern Kansas and Nebraska and Cali fornia are doing their utmost to lure the Eastern homeseeker under the shadow of their wings. Omaha and Kansas City are the centers of this fsettler's market, as this activity could easily be called. Attractive lit- erature, depicting the opportunities of the respective States, is being circu- lated broadcast through the middle Western towns, inviting tillers of the soil to seek pastures new. This kind of campaigning has undoubtedly been successful in the past, as the census reports for 1920 show. The above mentioned States all showed an in crease in rural population, while Ore gon, which has not gone into this campaign so extensively, showed a very small density per square mile of rural population. Theirs was only BPS, while ,California's was 2z, and Washington's 20.3 per square mile.
 According to recent reports one county in Colorado has been running an advertisement in the Eastern papers stating that irrigated farms can be had for nothing down, and the settler will have only the interest to pay for the first five years. r
 MT. J. R. Heuring, Oregon's cham ber-of- commerce representative at Omaha, said that the irrigation pro jects that have been completed in Oregon recently will require many thousands of persons to develop them, but that it is very difficult thing to persuade man to prove his family to a new land unless the prospect were made very alluring and promising.

GOLD AT BOTTOM OF WELL

Not only did the workmen digging a we'll on the R. R. Peters land, in Myrtle Creek, Oregon, pierce vein of coal ten inches thick, but from the dirt taken from the bottom of the we'll they banned fine gold, some of the pans showing as many as fifty colors. At a depth of one hundred and five feet they found an air cham Der. The air rushed upward with such force that at times the sound of it could be heard at a distance of three hundred yards.
 On the Thomas Laughead place near by, strong indications of petroleum were found by workmen digging through shale at a depth of thirty-five feet.
