Col Darn Conductor
Just Wouldn't Wait!

The SelZnick Movie Company Oper-
ators We're in Hackensack Tuesday
afternoon taking pictures of sup
posed raid on Il gambling house, using
the southwest entrance to the brick
building on the corner of Main and
Mercer streets as the objective poin;.
One of Simpsons big moving vans
drove up in the rear of the building
and the cops, armed with night sticks
and axes, jumped out and ran up
stairs, followed by Il score of. plain
clothes men, brought to the scene in
automobiles. In the meantime the
machine was grinding away.
Part of the plan was to have the
supposed proprietor of the gambling
place, handcuffed to a sheriff, taken
aboard the 3 :04 Susquehanna train
for transportation to prison, but the
conductor refused to hold the train
long enough to get the machine NOV
ing, consequently that part of the pro-
gram was marred, the players being
left stranded on the platform until
the next train came along.-Haeken-

Oradell Girl, 16,
Shoots Herself

Marian o. Leary, sixteen years OF
age, only childd of Mr.. and Mrs. Al
fred Leary of Forest avenue, OradelI,
attempted to commit suicide this
morning in the lonely stretch of wood
land known as North Grove at that
place, shooting herself in the abdomen
with a revolver
The girl evidently left her home
before 9 o'clock and reached the little
lake near the center of North Grove
shortly after o ccsock. The girl
dragged herself to the home of Mrs. G.
f. Dederick, Grove street, Oradell and,
falling on the porch steps, exclaimed,
81 shot myself!"
Mrs. Dederick called up the Hacken-
sack Hospital. An ambulance was
sent for the wounded girl.
That the girl knew what she was
doing is shown by the short conversa-
ton she had with Mrs Dederick.
Il wanted to die here" she said.
my hat and revolver are lying near
the lake in the grove"
An Evening Record representative
met Mrs. Leary, the girls mother, at
the Hackensack Hospital
When questioned as to why her
daughter should wish to take her own
life, she said, in part:
This morning | told her that IL
she continued to go out nights l would
be forced, much against my own
wishes, to send her away to home
in Massachusetts. That is the only
thing which / can think of which
would have made her do something
that hhe should not have done

Folks, the Fairvfew police again
We're called into action on a Sunday
evening. Charles Baumann and Ed
ward Gessing visited the Zinc family
of Eighth street last Sunday, and
then a friendly game of poker was
started
During the course of the game Joe
Zinc, Jr., held four aces Then the
fun began! An argument seems to
have ensued and Baumann broke
Zines nose.
While the rumpus was in full blast
some one phoned to police headuuar-
ters and Captain Magrino left for
the scene.
On arriving the visitors had already
FASTENED up the street in their Ford,
but Magrino caught them on Cliff
street. They were brought to police
headquarters and fined $50 apiece
Mrs. Steve Lucas made complaint
against Gessing. She stated that
while she was trying to get her child
out of the way Gessing hit her Joe
Zinc, ST., made the complaint against
Baumann.
There is small doubt that the Zines
will be careful who they invite into
a friendly game after this as no doubt
the four aces started an account with
DR.. Hellstern.

ISSUE OF BONDS
is FIXED BY CITY
COUNCIL AGREES TO ISSUE
BONDS IN DENOMINATIONS
OF 500 AND $500
Contractors Rushing Work on Upper
Reservoir and Pipe Line-May
Finish by August 10

According to the resolution passed
by the city council at its last regular
meeting held at the council chambers,
the water bonds voted by the city
at the special election on June 20,
will be issued in denominations of
500 and $500 and will bear interest
at the rate Of six per cent The
bonds are dated July 1, 1921 will be
redeemable in twenty years or July
I, 1871.
After the tenth year and between
the eleventh and twentieth years in
elusive, at the option of the city ten
percent of the principal amount
thereof can be redeemed in the order
of the bonds numbering. The bonds,
no matter the time Of redemption
will be redeemed at the fiscal agency
of the state of Washington in New
York City.
Of the $4,000 to be issued only
$500 will be issued in denominations
of $100. The rest will be issued in
amounts of $500, making a total of
S19,500 that will be issued in this
denomination.
None of the bonds will be put on
the financial market, the contractors
delivering the pipe and the one doing
the work on the upper reservoir
and pipe line having agreed to take
the bonds instead of the actual cash
when they have completed their con-
tract with the city. The above agree
ment is help to the city as it does
away with the work necessary to
selling the bonds.
Work on the upper reservoir and
pipe line is being rushed to compile
ton. The contract originally called
for the completion of the work by
August /, but due to unavoidable
delays, it is now doubtful if the work
will be completed until the 10th of
next month. After that date, it is
expected that the water supply will
be back to its normal level and that
the people will be allowed to use
the water in the same manner that
they have been accustomed to before
the present order forbidding the use
of water went into effect.

Southern California is increasing
very fast in population. do not
see that natural opportunities are
more numerous here than elsewhere,
but the call of the ocean surf, the
equitable climate, the semi-tropical
foliage and fruits, draw their increas-
ing quota of visitors and of home
seekers, and each year it takes an
increasing army of people to care
for these newcomers. The very fact
that so many newcomers are con-
stantly arriving, causes real estate
to become very valuable and much
real money is made here in the in
creased values of realty. Lots of
people come to these cities and towns,
buy a home, live in it while trying
to sell it at an increased price, sell
it in three months at an advance,
then repeat the process-and repeat
it indefinitely. The man who buys
a fruit farm has the same problem
as the one who produces from the
soil anywhere--he is at the mercy
of trade conditions produced by ma
tional and state legislation, and
usually holds the sack. He is con
sidered necessity, the same as
day laborer, but his real profits gen
orally come from selling his land to
the next one, or in permitting real
estate man to subdivide the land for
city lots. Many California producers
have united in forming selling asso-
Citations which protect themselves in
local trade, but even they are swamp
ed in the mire of high freight rates

erected. Two of the largest proposed
electrical plants in the northwest, the
Washington Water Power company
plant at Kettle falls and the Little
Dalles plant, are within easy access.
"There is no need to worry about
a market" said Mr.. Moore to his
audience "The high freight rates
from the east are enough to warrant
us a cool market. About $4,000 is
needed to put over a smelling plant
which would be capable of turning
out the supply of iron ore that would
easily be sold on the iron market of
the Pacific coast"
Speaking of the proposed plant,
Dale Jones, president Of the Colville
Chamber Of Commerce, said that the
chamber of commerce was willing to
back any bona fide business propo-
sition that was offered to the city
and that il would he willing to give
it it's support.
ASKbu Niidl ~ iiiNHiiN W
Mr.. Jones replied that it meant what
ever the Teople and the city of Col
Vile made it, adding that if such
plant was erected, it would mean mil
lions of dollars to the county with
Colville coming in for its share OF
the benefits
According to the officials of the
company the company has been
granted the exclusive right to the
Bibeau type of electrical furnace,
which is of the crucible type, con-
tains a p,e-heating electrical device
for heating the ore before it enters
the furnace, a continuous feed device,
conveying to the furnace, pre-heated
ore in lieu of charges of fuel and
ore alternately, or cold charges, as is
the custom in all types of furnaces
now in use. The electrical appliance
to be used will be three-phase, 220-
volt, sixty amphere two electrod
furnace, having a capacity of thirty
tons of pig iron every twenty-four
hours. A charcoal oven to make
charcoal is also included in the plans.
Under the new system or by use
of the Bibeau furnace, it would be
possible according to Mr.. Moore, to
heat long ton of pig iron with less
than 1000 k. W. a saving of approx
imately 1000 k. W. over all furnaces
now in use. Arrangements have al
so been made by officials Of the
company to secure a rate per k. W
which is far below that now given
to eastern smelling concerns.
Numerous assays of the iron on
the Northwestern Iron and Steel
company's property show it to con
tain on the average fifty-seven per
cent metallic iron, ninety per cent
iron oxide, which is three to seven
per cent higher than the iron as
sayed by eastern companies.
Fred NJ Williams, president, f. K.
Eddy, secretary-treasurer and A. X.
Moore, director, of the Northern Iron
and Steel company were explaining
the poicE of the company Wednes-
day evening to number of Colville
business ren.

"Stevens county is a gold mine in
the rough. It's wealth in mineral
resources cannot be estimated"
"Stevens county is rich in iron
ore"
"Onc Of the greatest fields in the
country IS here"
"Your potential water power here
Is one of the greatest to be found
anywhere"
These statements coming from such
noted authorities as Thomas Varley,
U. s. metallurgist, stationed at Den
yer, Colo, and A. R. Moore, for
years a prominent figure in the min
ing world in this section of the
country, at a meeting held in the
Palace theater Tuesday evening, in
dicateS to certain extent what
might be expected of Stevens county.
"This is my first trip to Colville
and the county. with the exception
of a trio to Chewelah during the
war" said Mr.. Varley, "when I came
here on orders of the federal gov
ernment to examine the tungsten de-
posts On every hand whether it
has been in the papers or whether
it has been told to me by prominent
mining men, I find that same feel
ing that this is a rich mire'a al reg
ion."
Mr.. Varley told of the market for
zinc which could be had by supply
ing the different automobile tire
manufacturing companies of the
United States and also the manufac-
turers of storage batteries. A mar
ket which he said was practically un-
limited.
"Zinc chloride" continued Mr.. Var
ley, ais especially valuable in pre-
serving wood and you have it here
in immense quantities. What you
need is smelling plant here to
smelt your ore"
A. R. Moore, one of the directors
for the Northwestern Iron and Steel
company, the company which is be-
hind the move to develop their prop
erty near Deep lake, about ten miles
and a half from Boundary, told brief
ly of the market for iron ore in the
western part of the United States.
approximately 10000 tons OF
iron ore is used in the states OF
Washington, Oregon and California
every month";" said Mr.. Moore. "It
1t costs $22.30 a ton for freight
charges from the iron ore centers ir
the east to the coast This means
that $223,000 is being given to the
railroads every month to get the
product here. Multiply this sum by
twelve and you have $2,776,000, the
amount spent for freight charges
every year."
Mr.. Moore told of the engineers
report stating that there were ap-
proximately 100000 tons of iron ore
at their property only small part
of what he believed to be in the
county. He spoke briefly of the
water power, declaring it to be more
than plenty of what would be event
ually needed in case plant was
