The Past Year

BUTTE. Mont, Jan. 6.-(UPl,
Western gold, for which 25,OOO
men hunted in 1882 in the great
est prospecting boom Of % years
has been 4 material factor in the
war against the depression, al
though it has not brought the
spectacular aid given the govern
ment by western silver in earlier
days, mining officials of eight
states report.
The $4,000 men. who have
toiled throughout the spring and
summer 10 find gold. have earned
q probable total Of some $1,000
OOC-Scarceiy more than rs cents
day.
RELIEF AGENCIES
Yet this money kept them from
relief agerri-s, furnished them
with the simple food OF outdoor
workers. and relieved trcmen-
Gous burden from states, cities
and counties wrestling with the
unemployment problems. Shot
through this prosaic success, toe,
has been the constant hope of a
great strike-another Comstock,
another Alder Gulch or Mother
Lode.
The gold supply mas been in
creased. but mining experts doubt
whether the individual work of all
these prospectors. many of them
amateurs, can bring gold prOduc-
ton figures to the marks made
when the copper mills were in op.
Grafton. producing quantities or
gold as a by-product.
ASSAY OFFICE
The federal assay office in
Helena, Mont, reported purchase
of 1885, 5S2.55 in gold during the
first six months of 1882, and Will
liam L. Hill of that office estimat-
ed that three times as much gold
has been taken from the hills dur
ing that period as in the entire
year of 1880.
Charles F. Willis. editor Of an
Arizona mining journal and for
mer superintendent Of the State
Bureau of Mines, estimated that
5000 men would earn an average
of rs cents per day per man in
that state, with total gold produc-
ton for 1892 slightly above the
1881 production of approximately
100000.

Cynghan Hall
Has Memorial Dedication.
THE dedication of Cynghan Hall,
the new music auditorium at
the Washington College OF Music
took place yesterday afternoon. The
room was dedicated to the memory
of DR.. Hugh Rowland Roberts,
president of the college, who died
suddenly two weeks ago. A simple
and effective musical program was
given by the Guaranerius String
Quartet of Philadelphia, which came
down particularly for this occasion.
Works by Glazounoff, Haydn and
Franck were played before large
gathering of prominent musicians
who had come to pay tribute to the
memory of DR.. Roberts. The music
was fittingly lyric and, one suspects,
was the kind of music Dr. Roberts
was most fond of. The room. though
not large, is yet admirably suited to
the needs of music. It's acoustics
are exceptionally fine. 1t is said
that DR.. Roberts last work for the
college was to hang the curtains on
the stage. e. de S. M.

at Diplomatic Salon.
TINE Music of China and its
musical instruments was
demonstrated to the large
L audience assembled last
evening at the Shoreham
Hotel for the Diplomatic Sunday
Evening Salon. Songs of the people,
melancholy sound, made up the pro-
gram which was presented by Chi
nese musicians from New York.
DR.. Yuen Rem ,Chao, head of the.
Chinese Education Mission, played
his own arrangement of the piano
accompaniment of the Chinese Ma
tional Anthem, which was sung by
a group of Chinese singers. His two
young daughters, Rulan Iris Chao
and Sb.nna Nova Chao, sang two
lyric songs, one of which DR.. Chao
accompanied on the flute. For the
second song, Lullaby" ordinarily
sung without accompaniment, DR..
Chao had arranged a piano version
whose Western influence served to
set off the haunting melody.
The Chinese violin, Erh-hu, was
heard in a duet by Sophia Han of
the Peabody Conservatory and Ches-
ter T. Su and a string ensemble Of
the instruments erh-hu, p'ipa, yueh-
chin, and yang-chin, was played
by Miss Han, Hal Kao Feng, Tsung
Ying Ku and Chester T. Su.
A peculiarly shaped flute the
Sheng, heard In ancient temples, was
demonstrated by Miss Han in a solo,
"Old eight measures; in a second
solo, Autumn Moon in the Palace
of Han" Miss Han played the old
guitar-like instrument, p'ipa, with
deft execution. Three Workmen's
Songs, Labor Hours" "Yang-tze
Boatmen's Song" and Founding
the Foundation" arranged by DR..
Chao, were sung by the group of
singers to the piano accompaniment
of Miss Han
These songs were extremely COL
orful and expressive and their
rhythm and accent mark the rhythm
OF the work. The long phrases and
smoothly flowing sound of the in
strumental music, hardly inter-
rupted by the trills and grace notes,
creates an impressive atmosphere
and vague sense Of fate and des-
tiny. DR.. Chao and Miss Han are
splendid musicians, not only as re-

In the two outstanding pieces on
the program, the "Chaconne" by
Bach-Busoni and the Sonata in

Miss Baum had opportunity to show
not only a brilliant technique but also
her fine muscianship. Particularly
effective was the Bach, which she
played with warmth and under

NEW PLAN FOR
PEACE MEETS
OPPOSITION
Say Undercover War Is
Being Waged Between
Stimson, White House
By PAUL MALLON

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Mr.
Stimson was struck violently
few weeks ago with a new idea
for the promotion of peace. All
that has come of it so far is wal
between the state department and
the White House.
Nobody is saying anything
about it publicly yet but they will
soon.
1t seems the secretary of state
decided to use the Chaco dispute
to promote a brainchild he has
long been nursing in silence. He
wants President Hoover to rec
ommend that the senate cut of
shipment of arms to all warning
nations in this hemisphere. He
thinks that would teach boys not
to fight.
Apparently Mr.. Hoover told him
to go ahead and prepare his idea
in message form to the senate
The preparation is supposed to
have been done by Assistant Sec
rotary of State White. He sent
the draft over to Mr.. Hoover and
an informal announcement about
it was made at the state depart
ment.
That was a signal for Lawrence
Richey, Mr.. Hoover's confidential
secretary, to initiate a 16-inch
she'll making a direct hit. 1t is
supposed to be unbecoming for a
president to express wrath. Mr..
Richey always does it for him. He
did this time in terms the state
department could easily under
stand although some of the words
he used are not in the diplomats
vocabulary.
The private explanation is that
Mr.. Hoover wanted to see the
Stimson ideas on paper and had
no idea they would get out. He
put the draft in the rear corner If
a bottom drawer a week before
he went away. 1t may stay there.
Some of Mr.. Stimson's friends
are whispering that perhaps he
trod on political toes. They point
out that some of the Duponts,
largest munitions makers, have
been prominent endorsers of the
president. Also that a Dupont
relative. Lamont Belin, was only
recently made ambassador to Po-
land.
If munitions maker could pos
sibly have a good excuse for any
thing he would have it in opposing
the Stimson plan. The South
American belligerents would be
only too glad to buy their weapons
from Vickers in London, the Poles,
French or Czecho-Slovakian-all
of whom are competing for the
business.

Lone Gold Mill
Is Now Operating
AT Famous Town

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col,
Jan. 2. (UP)-Cripple Greek,
where gold once was God, where
fortunes in yellow metal were
tossed out over gambling tables
at night, and recouped from the
hills the following day, has only
one gold refining mill left.
Once there were 40 in opera
ton in the Cripple Greek area
alone.
Gold once was the chief civ
ilization of the Rockies. "Pikes
Peak, Or Bust" was a slogan of
the time, as gold-mad men risk
ed their lives and their savings
on a wild dash across the Kan
sas prairies to the new promised
land.
But in 1881 only S5,OOO,O00
in gold was produced in the
state. This past year the total
will be slightly more.
The remaining gold refining
plant is the Golden Cycle Mill,
here.
1t is credited with being the
most efficient in the world in the
extraction of low grade ore. 1t
handles the ore of the Cripple
Greek field. and ore from Alma,
as well.
Since the depression has sent
prospectors back into the hills
in droves. and since the discov-
cry of methods of profitably ex-
tracing gold from low grades
ores, the mill has been working
almost to capacity.
In 1891, when ore was discov-
cred at Cripple Creek, it was
transported by mule teams over
rough mountain roads to the
smelters at Leadville and Pueblo.
Soon, however, mills sprang up
in every gulch adjacent to the
mines.
The mills sent out $400,Q00,-
600 in gold to the cash registers
of the world.
