EATON IS HERE IN REGARD TO
 TAKU PROPERTY
Large Crew Will Continue Development Work This
 Season, He Says

w. A. Eaton, prominent mining man, who did development work on a prospect up the Talxu River. known as the "Kirkham claim" last summer, arrived here on the steam CT Aleutian. The property is thought to be very valuable and at one time was under option to the Treadwell Gold Mining Company. MT Eaton spent the winter in the States, visiting in the East and conferring with the Los Angeles interests, which have fully financed further development work.
 As soon as the river is open there will be a crew of 30 or 40 men at work on the property to remain throughout the season, MT. Eaton said. They plan on doing between 5000 and 10000 feet of diamond drilling this summer, he declared.
 While it is still a prospect, as any undeveloped mining property must be, indications are that 1t IS valuable and will open up an en- tirely new mining district, MT. Eaton said.
 MT. Eaton expects to go out to the Taku property as soon as the weather permits, possibly in about two weeks While the company is fully financed by substantial inter ests, MT. Eaton and his Alaskan associates retain an interest in the property, he said. Those known locally, who are interested in the property with him, are D. J. Will Hams, Manager of the Hirst-Chi- chagof Mine, Charles G. Warner, and the original claim owners, J. o. Kirkham, Glen Kirkham, Carl Carlson and A. K. Smith.

 Of Electrical Wizard

Edison were recounted for the benetit of the members of combined civic clubs, Chamber of Commerce and the New Britain Electrical club at the regular meeting of the Rotary club today by c. l.. Camp bell, vice president. secretary and treasurer of the Connecticut Light and Power Co.
 There were about 100 men pres cnt B. II. McElhone presided as chairman in the absence of E. w. Christ.
 Mr Campbell spoke Of Mr. Edison as the man who made things work when other inventors were dscour- aged What he did was to take seemingly impractical things and make them practical he said.
 He said New Britain should be particularly interested in Edison since this is city of mechanical genius. When Edison was born, the speaker explained, there were no electric lights, no telephones, no street railways and the teIegra ph was still in an experimental stag 2 and was considered an idle dream by the financial interests of the country
 When Edison was young, a school teacher reported that he had an added brain" and that the educa- uonal facilities Of the community would be wasted on him. For an experiment that caused a barn tC be destroyed by fire. young Edison was publicly whipped.
 Mr. Campbell enumerated many inventions with which MT. Edison was identified. He sketched a brief biography of the inventor, adding that he made thousands of experi- ments, most of which were unsuc- Cessful.
 He said the inventor has not been carried off his feet by the plaudits Of the multitude but that he allows himself to be drawn into pageants and motion pictures with a sort Of lronical humor in the hope that thereby others might be inspired 10 follow his work. He character lzcd Edison as the country's only professional inventor, who made q DuSlneSS Of inventinS.
