OLD CRIPPLE CREEK
 BOOMING AGAIN AS
 NEW GOLD IS FOUND
TWO MINES BELOW OOO-FOOT LEVEL AMONG BEST IN
 THE WORLD.

CRIPPLE REEK, Colo, Jan. s. Monern machinery and the genius of the geologist are making mod ern bonanza of Cripple Creek. This mining camp-probably the greatest gold producer in the world has struck prosperity wave of ts own and threatens to equal if not eclipse it's former records.
 Cripple Creek, from an area two and a half miles square and 1000 feet deep, has produced APO million dollars in precious metals. The min. ing man asks whether another APO million dollars will be found in the next 1000 feet.
 The United States government thought enough of the question to check up on it. Gerald Lauglin, in charge of the metaliferous deposits division of the United States geolo. gical survey, has been in the field seeking the answer.
 Two mines which have gone below the 1000 foot level are among the best paying mines in Colorado to- day. One of them-the Portland opened up new bodies of golden wealth at depth of 2,7OO feet-in its third thousand feet. The other the Cresson-is also in it's third thousand feet, and still producing at its accustomed rate.
 The old time miner and prospector could not delve into these deeper ore bodies for the volcanic cone which holds Cripple Creeks wealth, held also millions of gallons of water in every vertical foot. Drainage tun.

TUNNEL BORERS
 AHEAD SCHEDULE

1 DENVER, Col, Jan. S.-The Moffat tunnel, piercing the continental di- vide of the Rocky mountains west of 1 here, and one of the worlds greatest railroad bores, is nearly one-third completed and is ten per cent ahead of the time set by the builders.
 To date the pioneer of water tun- nel has been bored 65O0 feet from the east portal or more than one-third of the six mile distance. The main head ing has penetrated James Peak 6316 { feet from the west. The cross out tunnels connecting the main and wa l ter bores at intervals of from 1900 to l 1500 feet have reached total of .520 feet Each of these crosscut tunnels is approximately 75 feet in length. The full size railway tunnel has penetrat- ed 3O95 feet from the east and 531 feet from the western portal.
 At present the work of enlarging the main heading which is being drill ed seven and one-half by nine feet, to the full size tunnel, which will be 16 by "A feet, is proceeding twice as fast as the work at the front. At this rate tunnel engineers estimate that with year this work will be abreast of the main heading.
 The slowness of progress on the western end is accounted for by the fact that builders have encountered soft shale and dirt rather than solid rock. This necessitates timbering ev- cry floor of tue way at cost of S1O0 per linear foot. At the east portal solid rock was found after the first few hundred feet and enabled the contractors to speed up the work ma terially.
 The men are comfortably housed in camps at each end of the tunnel, where stocks of provisions sufficient for three months are maintained. Each camp has medical dispensary and hospital with a doctor and a nurse in constant attendance. Fatalities, how. ever, have been almost nil, but one death resulting from accident in the IF months of construction.
 Terms of the contract call for com pletion not later than July, 1927. The opening of the tunnel will divert all railroad traffic through it, cutting off several heavy grades and sharp curves.

BRITAIN ALARMED BY RAPID RISE IN
 COSTS OF LIVING
COMMISSION NAMED BY NEW GOVERNMENT TO FIND CAUSE
 BALDWIN MAY FALL.

LONDON, Eng, Jan. 9-Britain is waging a grim, losing battle against a steady, unrelently rise in the price of food.
 With an army of we'll over a mil lion unemployed swarming over the country, and with vail for cheap CT dinner pail going up from those lucky enough to have jobs, the gov- ernment faces a winter of stern dis content
 Bread promises to play big part in the fate of Premier Stanley Bald wins second Torry cabinet.
 Even labor itself, as represented by the preceding administration of Ramsay Macdonald, found it hu-- manly impossible to stem the mounting tile of living costs. In June, after Macdonald had already been in office for five months, the price of food still was 60 per cent above the pre-war level. By No vember, when Baldwin returned to power, it had risen steadily to 79, 6 per cent above the figure for November l, 1923.
 During the month of October alone the retail costs of food rent, cloth ing, fuel light and other items in the workingman's budget bounded from 76 per cent above pre-war to 80. Food prices advanced seven points in October.
 Bread is blamed almost entirely or the recent leaps and bounds nj the general rise And the public has been further frightened by stories that the four-pound loaf will go to 2 shillings (about ($O.46) by Janu- ary. Experts have protected that the worlds wheat situation does not justify the scare.
 The Economist" has estimated the total wheat yield for 1924 will be 145, ,56O 100000 pounds as compared with 5O,000,OOO last year, these figures not including Australia.
 Despte the experts feeling of comparative optimism, the price of sack of flour went up 45 cents in London early in Novemhfr, and the crying protest against dearer loaf rang louder.
 Baldwin has shown that he is thoroughly alive to the possibilities of the situation. One of the first things he did after returning to Downing street was to set up com mission to investigate living costs. Appointment of Sir Auckland Ged- des as chairman reflects the i'm portance attached to the govern ments fight. It is Sir Auckland's first official assignment since he relinguished the British ambassa- dorship at Washington.

 The association made it's statement as a defense of the proposed St. Lawrence ship channel project, de- claring it was idle to suppose the Leviathan and Majestic type of ships would steam directly into the ports of Duluth and Chicago.
 Cargo vessels devoted to freight service are rarely large, majority of them drawing less than 25 feet of water, the statement said, adding that they must be small enough, to enter several ports at both ends of their journey to obtain full cargo. Counting the numerous trips of ex- press liners to New York, the state ment in foreign trade for 1922 shows that out of S,526 inward and outward trips TOT per cent were in vessels of less than 25 foot draft and 93.8 per cent with drafts under 30 feet.
