GOLD ORE AGAIN BEING
 TAKEN FROM OLD MINE

PORTOLA, Cal, May 6.-Gold quartz once more is being taken from the Jupiter Mine, located in the Sierre Nevade mountains near here. According to recently-discov- reed records the Jupiter was discoy- cred by missionaries years ago and was operated for some time before it was closed down.

 According to Superintendent ] Gilman. who has traced the history of the mine, party of missionaries camped or the site in the early days of California and in enlarging a sorine to procure water discovered the gold-bearing quartz.

the throne as 122nd Emperor of Japan upon the death of Meiji When ix years old he was enrolled among he pupils of the Peers School il rokio, receiving the customary .ele mentary common school education fn daily association with other chil- dren of the aristocracy. Upon his r}duation in 1914 there was estab ished the Imperial Education Insti F"te within the precincts of the "rown Princes estate and there for several years "Michi" studied under nriyate tutors. TEis year saw the ccmHletion of his academic course which his father, the Emperor and mother, Empress Sadako decided to round out with foreign travel The Japanese Embassy in Washington formally announced last February he would not visit the United States.
 Intrigue Charged.
 Ahont this same time it was TO ported that "Michi's" tour abroad was due to an intrigue to annul his hethrothal to the Princess Jagako an expose of which precipitated 2 movement to have him designated as Regent The Crown Prince - ability to serve as Regent was shown in May, 1920, when his father striciS- en with what was believed to be a serious illness, relinquished his duties to his son. At this time Hirohito represented the Emperor in an important state function, re- ceiving foreign diplomatic represen tatives in private audience The al ieged plot to prevent his marriage was attributed to the rivalry of political clans but shortly after the announcement of his prospective tour wedding would be solemnized upon it was given out in Tokio that the his return.
 National Jubilee.
 The visit of Prince "Michi' to Europe recalls the national jubila tion which ensued throughout Japan on Nov. 3, 1916, when with mystic rite and courtly pomp he was for mally consecrated as Crown Prince and heir to the throne. It was the birthday anniversary of the illus trious Mutsuhito whose recent death was being lamented by millions oi his subjects. On this same date ir 1889, the reigning Emperor had beer proclaimed Crown Prince. It was the prime of the beautiful Japanese autumn, when the gorgeous chrysan themum. the crest of the Japanese imperial house, is seen in all its glory.
 One striking feature of the cele bration was the Shinto ceremony ir the sanctuary of the "Kashikodokoro CT sacred mirror where for many ! centuries other princes of the blood royal had been proclaimed heirs ap parent. On this occasion, also the Emperor conferred upon his son a sacred sword called "Tsnbokiri-no Tsurugi," which had been given tc Yoshihito by his father at the time oi lis own elevation. Three years later when "Michi" became of age the event was celebrated with festivals throughout the Japanese Empire.

AMPLE TRANSFORMATION AT FORT NORMAN FIELD

EDMONTON, Alta, May 7.-There will be ample accommodations for all persons seeking transportation to the northern oil fields in Canada, ac- cording to local officers of the three northern transportation companies which are now completing arrange ments for the carrying of passen- gers and freight north. Reports to the contrary are said to be in correct and the transportation com panies declare there will be no trouble in the way of moving all the men who wish to go and large quantities of supplies. It is esti- mated that 5000 passengers, or even more, can be carried by the three companies.
 The federal governments geolo. gists and field workers in the north will be taken to the fields by the river route and not by airplane, the air board having, it is stated in the interest of economy, abandoned It's plans of transporting i've govern ment geological survey parties from Peace River by the air route. It has now been decided to build barges and to move the men and their supplies in that slower but much more economical way.
 The route to be followed by the barges will probably be the Peace. Slave and Mackenzie Rivers, most Of the work under prospect being in the vicinity of the Fort, Norman and Windy Point oil fields

SAN FRANCISCO, May 7.-Offt license bureau say that because prospective brdegrooms endeavor to display money in large rolls, their office is called upon to change more money daily than any other county office except that of the treasurer. A small boy is kept busy by the bureau getting S10, $20 and $50 bills changed,

Men, young, middle-aged and old come here with their prospective brides and take out marriage li- censes. They know the license is $2 but they come with about all the money they can lay their hands on, done up in a roll.
 'They change the money before they come into the biggest bills they can get and then come out here and make flash before their brides-to- be
 "Cf course some men do not do this. The really successful business man usually pays in silver. It is not unusual for wealthy man, par ticularly if it is his second or third to show no bills at all but to ask the bride if she has any change.
 Men who have been married be- fore generally show the wisdom of never showing too much money"
