that signifies the greatest degree of
success among companies engaged in
similar work and competing in con-
test that is conducted under uniform
rules applicable alike to all contestants.
Accident prevention work has so
progressed among the companies in the
National Safety competition that, in all
except the anthracite group, a mine
must keep its record free of accidents to
receive consideration for the award of
the trophy. A company may receive
honorable mention if its accident sever
ity rate is among the best five in the
group to which the company belongs or
if the mine had no accidents"
That the Zenith mine ana its en-
ployees has an enviable record in safety
work is further attested to in the fact
that on March 80, the mine was awarded
a certificate of honor for extraordinary
safety achievement by the Joseph A.
Holmes Safety Association.
The Pickands, Mather Company
property at Biwabik also received a
certificate in the Holmes awards made
at that time. Included in the awards
made were thirteen Lake Superior prop
critics. The Zenith has been frequently
cited in the past for it's enviable safety
record.
The awards of the Holmes Safety
Association are internationally known
and recognized in the mining industry
and are presented annually for meritori-
GUS safety records and achievements.
The Zenith mine has been signally
honored and Superintendent Richards
and his men are receiving the congratu-
lationS of the mining world for its safety
achievements.

creased to three-quarters of the full
rate in the sumner of 1884. Full divi-
dend payments were resumed on Oct
ober l, 1885. The total amount of the
the preferred stock prior to the pay
ment of this extra amount, as shown by
the company's annual report to the
stockholders amounts to slightly in ex-
cess of 100000.
M. L. Hubbard, president or the Min
nesota Power and Light company, in
referring to the action of the board of
directors in declaring this dividend
stated that this had been made possible
by gain in the company's business
which, in turn, reflected general
business improvement in the territory
served. A considerable percentage OF
the company's business is derived from
power supplied to the iron ore mines
which are being operated at a much
higher rate this year than for num-
Der of years past.
The payment of this dividend Mr.
Hubbard said, will be of considerable
benefit to the territory we serve as OF
its $1,000 total stockholders, there are
approximately 1000 who live here, and
these own total of some 1O5 900 shares
of the company's preferred stock. To
these in this area alone some $225, 1000 90
will be paid as result of the distribu-
ton of the dividend declared Monday
and this in itself will be helpful to
business in this territory"
