Almost since the time baseball.
became a popular sport, many Of
the greatest players were and are
still superstitious to a marked de-
gree, but In this respect they do
not rank with the wrestlers. Charms
and talismans Of all descriptions
and all sorts Of nascots are used.
Lewis, the present title holder. does
not carry rabbits foot or 4 charm
of any sort, but he declares Friday
is his lucky day. II the mach takes
place on Friday, he Is supremely
confident of winning. no matter
how formidable his opponent may be.
In this respect, however, the pop
.ular champion is not an exception,
for there are undoubtedly q great
many people who have the same no
ton that certain days are more
lucky for them than others.
Lewis was born on Friday; had
his first wrestling match on FRI
day; defeated SfeCl1er on Friday,
and IL was on q Friday that he
won the New York tournament.
And he won the title from ZbyszlxO
on Friday.
And in addition to the top-nCtch
.wrestlers, there are any number Of
lesser lights whose defeat at the
hands of the Stranger occurred on
= Friday.
An unusual taIisman carried by q

bring him luck. He won the match
and the bit Of ivory has been in his
possession ever since.
When Hacienschmidt the Rus.

for q bout, many wondered why he
wore such b shabby pair Of trunks
They were dark red originally, bat

The 1922 production of. silver was

IDAHO MINE PRODUCTION
IN 1922 is $4,000, 900

The total value of all lead, silver,
gold copper and zinc mined and mar
keted in Idaho during 1922 was $19,-
1876, 403.71, an increase in value OF
$2,632,38912 over the production OF
1921 which was SIC, &C
cording to the annual report of Stew
art Campbell, inspector of mines. The
reports will be ready for free distri-
button within the next 10 days, Mr..
Campbell announced Saturday. The
report is as follows.
The production of copper and zinc
had a decided increase; gold de-
creased; lead and silver remained
about the same although slightly less
as the reopening of the large mines,
which were idle during 1921, and
the increase in production by those
which continued operations, were
not sufficient to overcome the def
cheney caused by the curtailed out
put during the first six months of
the year
The advances in the price of lead,
zinc and copper; the reduction in
freight rates and commodities were
responsible for the resumption of
operations by ali of the mines which
were idle during 1921. The Pitman
act greatly stimulated the produc-
ton of silver and was entirely re-
sponsible for the continuous opera
ton of many large producers. Gold
mining continued to be Improbable
and unless some relief is had in the
near future the only gold of any
consequence produced in Idaho VIII
be that contained in the ores OF lead
and copper.
The 1922 output of gold totaled
2217S.S9 ounces valued at Sass
427.32. In 1921 the output was 49,
75O.76 ounces valued at $552,9SS.23
or a loss of S94,41O.91. This is the
least production ever recorded in the
history of the state and is signifi-
cant in emphasizing the lethargy IN
gold mining that existed throughout
the year. Particularly so as large
part of the production was recovered
as byproduct of other metals. Boise
county continued to hold first rank
in gold production with Shoshone
county second, although both had
a considerable decrease, while the
of the new dredges in Ell
more and Clearwater counties added
two new sources of production.

was 3,225,762 pounds valued at
s431,671.47 with an average price

pared with 1921 the total produce
