VISITING MINING MAN
 LIKES RYDER DISTRICT


 Conrad Wolfe, Spokane min ing man, arrived in camp Sun- day. MT. Wolfe is here prin- cipally for the purpose of in- vestigating the Hewitt and Carlson Homestake properties on Texas Creek, to which he repaired shortly after his ar- rival.
 Following his return to town Monday evening Mir. Wolfe stated that he was much in4- pressed by his inspection of Texas Creek section and de- scribed the Homestake as "a nice looking property" That his impression of the property was somewhat more profound than might be inferred iron. the pleasant characterization, was indicated by the state ment that it is intention to re- turn in the spring as soon as conditions permit to investi- gate it further.
 MT. Wolfe, who is a mining engineer by profession has been connected with silver-lead mining for many years in the Occur D'Alene country and Is at present operating two mines, one in Washington state near Spokane, the other near Nelson, B. c.
 Both are controlled by the United Mines Corporation, in which MT. Wolfe is associated with a number of friends. Be ing acquainted with almost ev. cry mining district, Mir. Wolfe speaks in most entertaining manner of mining conditions in the south and discloses g. wide experience in mining de velopment.
 Discussing the dearth of capi- tai for local development, MT Wolfe expressed the view that money for mine develop ment is nowadays much haro-, CT to get than was formerly the case.
 "One of the chief reasons for this," he said, "is the tend ency of the prospector to de mand big cash payments. fol properties which can be class ed as nothing more than mere prospects. However" he added there are many men of means who are interestd in mining and are willing to invest pro- viding they can get ground or reasonable terms. There is no doubt" he concluded, "that ii the prospectors will gamble with the promoters they will not find it hard to get capital. But, they must not expect cash payments and must take a chance with those who put up the money for development.

Dogs Mate With WOLVES

A story reminiscent of Jack London's
"Call of the Wild" has come to the
bureau of biological survey of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. Last winter a number of wolves,
including three black ones, were re-
ported by different stockmen east of
Lodgegrass in the Wolf mountains in
Montana. A government hunter, as
signed to clear them out, trapped an
almost black animal that was obviously
part dog, and a short time afterward,
in the same vicinity, he killed a vicious
dog similar to an airedale, probably
the sire of the half-blood. It is believed
that most of the wolves in this pack
are half-breeds.

Checking Up

The Skeptics' society, after exhaus-
tive research, has arrived at the fol-
lowing conclusions:
stitch in time does not save more
than three or four at the most.
He who laughed last laughed worst
in 1914 per cent of the tests made.
Where there was smoke there was
fire in only 1898 per cent of the cases
examined; in all other cases it was
too rich a mixture.
Still waters were not only shallow
In nearly every case investigated, bur
were most easily excited
In 63 per cent of the tests when a
leaper paused to look someone else
leaped ahead of him.
Of the burnt children examined the
majority were carrying matches and
manifested no fear of fire.
OF the mice observed 1915 per cent
did not play at all when the cat was
away, but went right to work.
Some very short lanes were found
to have no turning.-Life.

TOYS DO MUCH TO
SHAPE BOYS LIVES
No Doubt That Playthings
Haze Great Influence.

Have you ever watched parents and
fond relatives wandering about aim
lessly in the toy department of big
stores? They finger this toy and that,
worriedly, and finally end by buying
something anything-at the counter
that is least crowded.
Such parents lose a great Opportu-
nifty by neglecting a chance to help
their children. A toy is part of
childs education. Just as educators
choose textbooks, considering care
fully the needs of the child so should
the parent choose toys, writes Ferdi-
nand Strauss, toy manufacturer, in
the Popular Science Monthly. For
toys should be chosen that will en-
courage children to think and develop
their latent powers.
america makes toys that teach
something, because it has advanced
further in the field of child psychol-
ogy than any other country in the
world, and the psychologists have
demonstrated that children learn
while they play.
mot long ago l read story about
Orville and Wilbur Wright When
they were little boys in Ohio, their
favorite toys were kites and balloons.
In playing with them, though, they
never dreamed that they would be the
men to accomplish through their air
planes the conquest of the air.
again and again 1 find, in reading
of the childhood of famous men or in
speaking with them, that they spent
their play hours with toys that had
some definite connection with their
later occupation.
IF Lindenthal or Modieski, the
great bridge builders of today, were
to tell you of their childhood, you
would learn that as boys they spent
most of their time making toy
bridges.
Rear Admiral William A. Moffett,
chief of the bureau of aeronautics,
United States navy, himself told me
that as boy his principal interest
was flying kites.
Carl E. Akeley, the inventor and
big-game hunter, the man who raised
taxidermy to the level of the arts,
spent his playtime as boy with tools.
The gift of folding pocket footrule,
he says, gave him big thrill, and
with his tools he made toys and use
full articles for the house In the
heart of a jungle, hundreds of miles
from any source of supplies, a man
without ability for construction is al
most helpless. Carl Akeley is not, for
as boy he possessed a tool chest"

NelU Building Material

A company has recently been organ
lied to make new building material
similar to concrete but which is really
q combination of portland cement and
mineralized sawdust. It is claimed to
be cheaper, stronger, and in nearly
every way better than real concrete.

swers to the problem of saving forest

China's Cotton Industry

China, land of many obsolete in
tustrial activities, has one industry
that is modern in almost every sense
1t is cotton which is rapidly develop
ing into a major industry. 1t employs
much cheap labor, including that of
children, of course, but it's machinery
and methods are up to date. Its great
est weakness is in the scientific man
agement of the factories, but this is
being overcome by the bringing in of
foreign experts.

More Hope for Warren

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 12.- Butler carried more hopeful story to the Whitehouse today than the tit ular Republican leaders had given the president, who left to Warren the de- cision whether he wished to renew the fight or not.
 It was indicated that a special ses- sion of the senate, which had expect ed to adjourn Saturday, might be held Oldtimers cannot recall any precedent return of a nomination, and only five times in the history of the nation has the senate withheld their apprival of the man chosen by the president for the official family. Coolidge sent the nomination of Warren to the Senate again and is now anxiously awaiting t on it.

Twice Named President.

Twice Named President.
 pr. Sun was twice named to the highest constitutional office in Chi no-the first time in the Fall of 1911, when he was proclaimed the first provisional president of the Chinese Republic, and again in May, 1921, when he was elected President of all China.
 Preceding his first election the Chinese people, rising in their wrath against centuries of bad gov ernment under the monarchial Man chu and previous dynasties, over threw the existing government and set up a republic, naming as presi- dent Dr. Sun, who was understood to have engineered the uprising. All of South China and most of the Yang-tse provinces were thus brot under a single banner emblazoned with the principles of republicanism.
 The strongest man in North China at that time was Yuan Shih-kai, Gov ernor of Chilli Province. Determined that the country should be united under one leader, Dr. Sun, after es- tablishing what might be termed an experimental government in the South, resigned in favor of Yuan Shih-kai. This marked the begin ming of the end as far as Suns in fant republic was concerned, for which Yuan Shih-kai was strong enough to guide the ship of state, he likewise had personal ambitions centered in a new dynasty.
 Made China a Republic
 Having tasted constitutional free dom, the masses were in no temper to countenance monarchistic aspira- tions, whereupon they soon over turned the rule of Yuan and elected a successor. For the next seven years, including the period covered by the late war, China was to all appearances a Republic, with a Pres ident, Cabinet and a Parliament in Peking. Actually, she was an oli- garchy, ruled by a group of war lords, each with his own personal army in control of his n province. These Combinations of military lead
