ARSENIC MINES
co N IN G 0 \

The mining of arsenical ores on
the mesa between the old town of
Dubois and the Lake Fork is assum-
ing considerable size, and if the dis
trict proves up as expected now, it
will mean q permanent mining camp
and manufacturing center.
The strike in which these ores are
found seem to be a mile and q half
long and half-mile wide, extending
fromlnear Dubois south and west over
the mesa into the Lake Fork water
shsd.
The White Iron claims are the best
developed thus far. These are own
ed by VIM. Killbourne, and are four
in number. Three drifts of 40, 60
and 80 feet show 10 inches to four
feet of arsenic pyrites, the iron sui
phides carrying IS per cent arsenic.
Burger & Sayre, mining engineers
Of Denver and acting for New York
chemical manufacturers have q
lease and option on this group and are
now about to install large plant of
machinery to sink and drift, SO that
the full extent and producing capa-
city Of the deposits can be determin-
ed.
Chas. N. Shaw of Gunnison, has al
% given the engineers IN option ON
his group Of three claims, lying along
the strike of the ore SO far discover
ed. He has a shaft down % feet and
will continue to sink. Fred Hay and
Dick LaMoy are assisting him. The
deposit here is four feet wide, but Is
yet IN oxide. The sulphide will come
In as depth is gained.
The White. Iron is the old Crown
Point group, worked in the days when
Dubois was a gold camp. The B 4
s group of Mr.. Shaw's was once
known as the Hill Top lode. These
claims lie mile and a half west Of
Dubois and the miners are staying
ut that abandoned camp.
The White Iron mine is on the Lake
Fork side, near the Charley Carr
ranch, and has buildings erected to
house the machinery. Mr.. Carr owns a
group of several claims in the dist
rict, as does Henry Robinson. Eight
men are working at the White Iron,
but this number will be. increased as
soon as the machinery is installed.
1t is the intention of the new own
ers to develop to point where daily
production of 100 tons is certain.
Then a manufacturing plant will be
installed to separate the arsenic, which
is in constantly increasing demand
these days for fruit sprays and other
manufacturing specialties.

World Peace" Aim Of
War on Golf Course
sEarthWorms

The chemical warfare service
Of the United States army has
undertaken the task of lower
ing American golf scores.
It is going to try to accom-
plish this by eliminating earth
worms on the greens and fair
ways of golf links throughout
the country.
The earthworm, whose func-
ton in life is to keep the sur
face of the earth fresh by bor-
ing up from the ground with
a load of new dirt and then
going back after more, is a
source of despair to caretakers.
The mounds of dirt the worm
raises as a memorial to his life
work mar the greens and divert
ten-foot puts.
A group of golf enthusiasts,
therefore, has asked Brig. Gen.
Amos A. Fries to have his serv-
ice develop gas or liquid
which will kill off the worms
without injuring the sod, and
the general has accepted the
challenge. He is quoted as
saying that if successful this
work will constitute one Of the
greatest steps yet taken "to-
ward world peace" A dubbed
putt, he thinks, tends to pro-
mote unrest.

Rules and regulations have been
amended as follows:
: Parking of vehicles between
dark and daylight in the unlighted
portions of parks is pro-
hibited."
1t was explained that the meas
ure is precautionary rather than
corrective. The auto!mad youth of
the city have been watching their
Ps and Q's with pleasing precision
ever since a big cleanup campaign
against night petting parties was
started two years ago. 1t is said
that not a single complaint has
been registered from Rock Creek
Park this summer.
However, according to one of the
park police officers under Captain
McMorris, the long, dark stretches
about the Lincoln Memorial have
proved tempting Of late to parkers,
some of whom make nothing of
sticking around until 2 or 3 a. M,
indulging in anti-Volsteadian bever-
ages and vigorous petting and all
in the shadow of the nations most
reconcile shrine. This sort of thing
will be nipped in the bud.
Liable to Arrest.
Persons requested to move on
who fail to do so will be liable to
arrest At the same time, it is
stressed that the park police are
always under instructions to act
courteously.
They are not to come out with
such expressions as: Sa-a-y, don't
you know any better than to be
parking your bus here? Move on be-
fore you get pinched.'
That sort of thing is out of date,
say those in charge. The violation
involved will be simply and quietly
pointed out.
Will Stop Dumping.
The office of public buildings and
grounds is embarked upon a cam
paign to make Washington parks
the cleanest, besides the most high
toned morally, in the United States.
Captain McMorris today pointed to-
clipping stating that seventy per-
sons had been arrested last Sunday
in Fairmont park, Philadelphia, and
fined $3.50 apiece for littering the
reservation with trash. No such
measures are desirable here, he said,
but the throwing of refuse must
stop?
Another move he has made is to
station an officer near the North
terminal Of the Calvert street and
Connecticut avenue bridges to see

United States and re-enforce the

the immense number of workers who

J. E. McCadden, district secretary

the abortive steel strike of 1919,
which ended in disaster, the present
