SAYS THIS WILL BE
A HOT SUMMER.

- IN y -
This summer will be a hot one
despite the late spring which has
been caused by the sun giving
off 4 per cent less heat than nor
mally. So predicts DR.. Charles F.
Brooks, the astronomer.
The reduced heat Of the sun
was to be expected, says DR..
Brooks, as a customary part Of
the IL year sun spot period"
which reached its greatest deyel-
opment in 1917 and recedes to it's
lowest point in 1928.
Brooks points out That the sun
every II years normally goes
through a period of excessive ac-
tivity and then a recession from
it. When Old Sol is hitting on
all cylinders, sun spots appear.
These wane when the sun slows
down and its engine cools. Not
scientific Technology, but we
trust we've interpreted it so it is
understandable by the millions
who are tremendously interested
in the weather but haven't time to
study up" on astronomy,
These spurts Of activity (in-
creased heat followed by subnor-
NAL heat, are staged by the sun
every II years. There was an alb
normal reaction of heat from
the sun in 1906 the same as II
years later in 1917.
The next cycle will have its
climax in 1928.
Dr. Brooks says: "There is a
paradox that "the cooler the sun
the warmer the cath. The period
of sun spot maximum is one to
two degrees cooler than other
wise"
One scientific explanation is
that when the sun has a mild chill
as at present, its ultraviolet rays
have greater opportunity to es-
cape through the SUMS atmos-
phere. These ultraviolet rays
form q blanket ofozone aroundthe
earth, far overhead. This ozone
blanket absorbs and holds much
of the heat which the earth ra-
dates or gives off. (The radiation
is what makes the nights cool
even after a hot day. The earth's
heat starts returning back into
space and the ozone blanket tends
to keep it near us, the same as a
thermos bottle.
So, says DR., Brooks, there prob
ably IS at present a reduced loss
of the earth's heat through space.
despite reduction of the amount
Of heat we're eceiving from the
sun. The ozone, formed over
head by nature to counterfeit the
suns chill, works like asbestos
around a steam pipe.
":The net result" DIR. Brooks
concludes, referring to the coming
summer, Should be a higher tenn
perature, considering the world as
a whole, than at the time a year
Or two ago when the heat receiv-
ed was greater"
Even the facetious who say,
Amt nacher wonderfuIo' will
have to marvel at natures marvel.

REPUBLICANS TO MEET
ON LINCOLKS BIRTHDAY
PRELIMINARY STEPS NOW BEING
TAKEN FOR BIG EVENT
ON FEBRUARY 70.

Another anniversary OF the birth Of
the day when republicans everywhere
get together to renew their fealty to
their party by paying homage to its
patron saint. For many years the re-
publicans of Shoshone county have
tttingly observed Lincolns birthday
by giving a banquet in this city, and
the custom will be observed upon an
even more elaborate scale this year.
Republicans in all parts of the county
will be invited to assemble at the
bOunteous banquet board this year,
and in addition to the spread, there
will be program appropriate to the
occasion that will be an inspiration for
greater effort in support of the prin-
ciples for which Lincoln stood and
which are the foundation of the re-
publican party today. Every republ-
can in Shoshone county who can pos
sibly do so should shape his plans with
he view to attending this banquet on
February II. He will be better re-
publican and therefore a better citizen
for having attended.
Get a Good Speaker.
No definite plans have yet been TAX
en- in preparation for the banquet, but
special thought is being given by those
who have charge of arrangements to
securing a speaker of note for the
principle address. Other features Of
the program will be supplied from To-
cal talent, and the musical numbers
will be of exceptional merit. The whole
affair will be planned with the view
TO make it the biggest and best OBJ
servance of Lincolns birthday that has
ever been staged by Shoshone county
republicans, and that is putting it
strong. for the republicans of this
county have held some wonderfully
big and successful banquets on Lin
coins birthday.

GUNITE.
Protection Against Fire in and About
Mines.

Protection Against Fire in and About
Mines.
Tests recently made by the bureau
of mines at the University of Califor-
mia, Berkeley, Calf, indicate that
Portland cement gunite will stand up
in a hot fire. The guniting of timbers
will prevent the starting of a mine fire
in. or the spread of flames through,
the gunited section. The magnesium
xychloride- cement gunite slabs did
not stand up under the first test; the
gunite crumbled to powder and scaled
off. permitting the slabs to ignite. It
is reasonable to conclude that head
frames, shaft collars shaft timbers
shaft stations in fact all timbering in
permanent underground workings-in-
GLIDING mule barns, ventilation doors
power stations hoist stations, timber
ed haulage ways. and fan stations. can
be effectively fireproofed by gunite
coatings. On the surface. transformer
houses, assay offices. powder maya
zines and other buildings can be fire.
PROCEED by gunite coatings; or the
buildings can be made entirely of re-
inforced gunite.

RICHMOND.

Fred Carlson came in from the
Richmond Tuesday on his way to his
home in Spokane. He expected to
get a contract to extend the drift from
the St. Lawrence to the Richmond
shaft but owing to the delay in letting
it and the difficulty in getting and
holding men, together with the deep
snow which made it next to impossi-
BILE to get in and out Of the camp, he
concluded that he didn't want the job
and headed for home, going to Saltese
on snowshoes and there taking the
Northern Pacific for Wallace. Mr..
Carlson said the snow is eight or 10
feet deep at the st. Lawrence. About
10 men are at the Richmond, the ma
iority of whom is represented by the
superintendent. foreman, shift bosses,
blacksmith and cook.

Under the leasing regime at the

sunk from the main tunnel to a depth
of so feet from which a drift was run
west about 200 feet This work de-
veloped considerable ore from which
several carloads of high grade We're
shipped by the leasers. This winze
has recently been unwatered and the
is preparing to extend
the drift west to get under the big ore
recently made in a short
from the main tunnel 1t is
estimated that not more than so feet
will be required to get under this ore,
which has every indication of widening
as it goes down. The face of the drift
from the winze has a good showing of
ore. and it is expected that Its extern
sion will disclose a larger body OF ore
than has yet been found in tine West

Week.

The Hecla mine closed down on De-
cember 2S and remained down until
last Tuesday January . The shut
down was not for the purpose of Civ
ing employees an unusually long vaca-
ton. but was made necessary by the
gradual burning out of the large cleo
trio motor that drives the main hoist,
making rewinding necessary. As it
was only a question of a short time
until the work would have to be done.
the management decided to prolong
the Christmas holiday until it was ac-
complished. The motor is a very large
one and as only one man could work
at time. three expert electricians
were employed working eight-hour
shifts. The job was completed on New

FRENCH NAMES CORNER
WALLACE POSTMASTER
PROMINENT BUSINESS MAN AND
REPUBucAN-TAKES Of
FlcE FEBRUARY I.

A wire from Congressman Burton l..
French last Tuesday announced that
he had recommended the appointment
of NJ. A. Corner for the position of
postmaster at Wallace. This was not
unexpected, for while the two rival ap
plicants for the position, John A.
Ruebke, assistant postmaster and
Glynn Evans, deputy county treasurer,
had strong support from the business
men of the city, Mr.. Corner not only
had similar strong support, but also
the support of the republican organi-
cation, which was doubtless the win
ming card. The formal appointment
will now be made by the president and
confirmed by the senate, following
which Mr.. Corner will file his bond
and upon it's approval by the postof
flee department will receive his COM
mission. These proceedings will prob
ably occupy most of this month and
Mr.. Corner should be in position to
take over the postoffice about Febru
airy 1.
Prominent Business Man.
Mr.. Corner has been resident of
Wallace for many years, being mem
Der of the firm of Corner & Fisher,
dealers in coal, hay and grain, and
was manager of the business. The
firm disposed of it's business a few
months ago, and since then Mr.. Cor
ner has given his attention to the City
which he owns, pending the
outcome of the contest for postmaster.
Since coming to Wallace Mr.. Corner
has been actively identified with the
business life of the city, cooperating
in all movements to make Wallace
bigger and better business center. He
was for several years president of the
board of trade and is still one of the
most active members of that body. Mr..
Corner is an ardent republican and has
always taken an active part in the af-
fairs of his party. He will succeed
Joseph F. Whelan. who has served two
terms as postmaster. Employees of the
postofice hold their positions under
the civil service law and the change
in postmaster will involve no change
in the office force.

About a mile this side of Lookout
pass on the splendid new highway at
point about where it crosses the old
Mullan road, a concrete fountain has
been erected similar to that between
Wallace and Mullan. There are two
drinking fountains and one for horses.
The fountain is about so feet in length
and for an equal length the road in
front of it is paved with concrete.
There is room about the fountain to
park Is to 20 cars The fountain is
faced with chunks of Occur dAlene
ore set in cement The construction of
this attractive wayside watering place
has been accomplished so far through
the efforts of John II. Foss and Harry
Ingalls,, of Mullan, and their work has
now reached a point at which they de-
sire and are entitled to the assistance
of the public for they have a plan by
which they expect not only to make
this lasting monument commemors
tive of an important historical event
and a refreshing resting place for
wayfarers on the Yellowstone trail,
but also a means of effectively adver-

that it can not be carried away. Also

YOUTH FALLS
INTO NET SET
FOR BROTHER

Because they tried to "put some
thing over' on the sheriff IS office,
Calvin Yinson and Carl Stanton,
eolored youths, are held at the
county Jail for investigation, pend
ing possible charges against them.
"Pink" Vinson, brother of Cal
vim, is wanted by the sheriff S
office ON a felony charge, but has
succeeded in keeping himself con
cealed on the Mexican side Of the
international line. Saturday night
he reported to the CaexicO police
that his automobile had been stolen.
Yesterday the sheriff's office,
thinking TO lure Vinson across the
line, sent word that his car had
been recovered and advised him to
come and get it.
This morning Calvin Vinson, and
Stanton, brother in. law Of the Vim
sons, presented themselves at the
Jail, the former claiming he was
E'Pink' Vinson, and asked for his
car. When told that "Pink" is
wanted on a felony charge, Calvin
made haste to clear himself and
denied he is the much wanted
"Pink,O but the officers decided
TO lock them up until an inyesti-
cation can be made.
