SUMMARY OF LATE DEVELOPMENTS

equipping of the shaft with machin- cry. Nearby the Katherine Rand, at the Katherine Extension property, crosscutting work at depth of 250 feet is progressing rapidly, and is at tended by the frequent cutting of cal cite stringers, which would indicate the presence nearby of an ore body in place.
 Sinking has been resumed at a depth of 100 feet in the Adams shaft, with a depth of 200 feet as the ob jective. There the large and strongly mineralized vein, opened on the 100- foot level, will again be crosscut and developed Where opened on the 100 foot level the deposit shows S5 feet of vein material, which pans gold and for the most part is reported to be milling grade quartz. The Adams property is located in the vicinity of the Sunbeam group, which lately passed to the possession of the Sil- yer Hills Mining Company, a w. J. Loring corporation. Plans for the de- velopment of the Sunbeam are rapidly taking shape, and will soon be in force. w. J. Cleary, an old-time Nevada and Colorado mining man, is planning deep development cam paign for the Gold Chain Annex prop erty, located nearby the Sunbeam.

TWO-SW0RD MEN OF JArAn
Few Years Ago, the Secret of Blademaking Disappeared.

As late as 1868 there were some 4O0,00 two-swOrd men in Japan, high ly trained fighters attached to the nObles of the land in bands ranging from two or three, to an entire army. When the revolution came the work of the twO-swOrd men was done, the nation was made into a solid unit and the strength of the blade carriers was needed at blow and bench.
 With this disbanding, an exchange explains, the trade of the swordmaker was also lost to the vast number fol- lowing it, and with them, as the years passed, died the secrets of the war rior tools. Swords can be obtained in Japan today whose blades are so keen they can cut through veil or sofa through bar of iron, provided the wielder has the strength. Others have blades covered with a beautiful and intricate tracery that disappears and reappears at odd times, and no one can solve the "why" of it. One mo- ment the blade is as smooth and un- marked as a mirror and the next the design leaps out before the eye of the startled beholder and can even be felt by sensitive fingers. Yet other blades are cOlOred red. blue, silver or gold, and while seemingly an alloy, a chem ical analysis shows nothing but steel. Yet others are coated with a poison that is unseen, but beyond all other poisons deadly. In large part 1t con sists of decayed human blood.
