Between 40 and 50 men are employed at the Beaver County mine A. E. Kipps, mine manager and geologist, is in charge. The shaft has been retimbered to the 500 level and equipment overhauled and, put in shape for steady operations. One of the first pieces of work will be to drive a heading from the 500 level of the Horn Silver to connect with King David 800 foot shaft lying a short distance over the Horn Silver line, but belonging to the Tintic Lead company. This drift will crosscut a block of virgin limestone lying close to mine ralized channel, which is thought to have been the conductor for the solu tions that formed a $50,000,000 ore body in a block of ground 1000 by 400 feet and 1000 feet deep. The company has also completed building a bunk house large enough to accommodate 25 men. Retimber- ing of the shaft below the 500 level Is also under way. Production of ore should start at the Horn Silver this month. It Is a well known fact that considerable, tonnages of good grade ores were left by the early operators because of the zinc content. With flotation, treatment of these ores presents no problem and a good profit can be netted at existing metal prices. Mineral Survey. BEAVER BOY SEN- TENCED IN NEVADA The Tribune i From ELY, Nev.

Mr. Kaul was ill with flu and could not attend the service. The casket was taken directly to the chapel, where friends were allowed to view the remains. The services, conducted by Bishop, C. Dennis White, were largely attended by friends of the family who came to pay their last tribute to one who had dwelt among them for many years. The blanket of beautiful flowers, entirely covering the casket, were borne by the Rebekahs, whq with the I. O. O. F., attended in a body. A male quartet, Miio Baker, Frank Smith, Kent Morgan and R. C. Murdock sang "I Know My Heavenly Father Knows." Pres. R. C. Murdock offered the opening prayer. J'Jesus Lover of my Soul" was sang by the quartet. Bishop White spoke feelingly of memories of days when Mrs. Monahan and her family lived in the community. In behalf of the entire community, he extended the goodwill and sympathy of a people and hoped something would be said and done that would prove comforting. Special mention was made of the service rendered by the Rebekahs and I. O. O. F. Mrs. Margery Mackerel) $ang "Whispering Hope." President J. F. Tolton began his remarks by reading the lines, "Death Is not ceasing to be, it Is living eternally." Death should come gently to such a one. Through almost a life time o( association, he felt he should be on the mourners bench. At times it is very fitting that one should pass from all they have known In life, and go to a broader field of action. Just when we have reached the summit of the mountain, age creeps in and we begin to go down. Speaking of lifelong association with the deaseased President Tolton said: "I have known Mary Monahan as long as I can remember. In 1859 the Allard family was called from Pleasant Grove just as the Tolton family was called from Grantsville, to strengthen the frontier of San Pete county. There the two families joined hands, creeping on up the river a few years later to settle Circleville, where they lived neighbors. Surrounded by hostile Indians, they, suffered hardship and privation. In June, 1866, and his tribe became so menacing the people had to desert the little village. Leaving their crops, stowing all their earthly possessions In a wagon box, most of the people came to Beaver. Part of them returned to San Pete county. The Alireds and Toltons came together to Beaver. William J. Allred, he said, was one of the most courageous men this community has ever known. He spoke of the efflcent work done by Mrs. Monahan as county recorder for Beaver county, and of her having been true to the memory of her husband. The monuments builded by which we will be remembered are not the marble shafts, not the flowers, for, they will fade and die with tomorrow's sun, but we will be remembered by our traditions. We must live for others, we must render service, for thus we reap the, greatest satisfaction ,in life." "No Night There," was sung by Mrs. Thelma Barton. Robert White pronounced the closing prayer. Interment was in Mountainview cemetery. Mary Allred was born in 1857, In Pleasant Grove. She was the eldest daughter of William J. and Leona, Alired. She married Michael Monahan, who preceded her in death many years. Surviving are two sons, James, of Butte, Montana, and Ormand, of Chicago, 111.' also one daughter, Mrs. Harry Kaul, of Salt Lake City; two sisters, Mrs. James Low and Anna May Oakden. released. Cox used a beer bottle as a weap on and inflicted severe cuts and bruises on Zawistoskl's head, but the latter is on the way to recovery. - o "THE COSSACKS" AN EXQUISITE ROMANCE Wild horsemen in perilous rides; urging battles in rocky crags; grim torture scenes, and the soul of the Russian Cossacks, inured to hardship and educated only to battle; these form the broad canvas on which 1$ sketched one of the most exquisite romances of the Bcreen today. Such a play is "The Cossacks," John Gilvebert's new hicle which will be shown at the Star Theatre, Sunday and Monday nights. The picture has everything; thrills, struggles, grim reality and Idyllic romances. "The Cossacks" catches the very spirit of the hardiest fighters of al history, and indeed It should, for a, troop of them was brought from Eu. rope to stage the sensational rides and enact the people of the Russian town in which the action is laid. A compete town was among the gigantic settings built for the play, with several hundred Russians living In it. diPractically all the picture was ex the with as, rected In Russian, actors ception of the principals, the spoke no English. So it might almost as well have been actually made In Ru8Sia and the spirit of the play a. BOULDER DAM WILL BE SECOND LARGEST . Black-haw- o k PROJECT IN WORLD The building of the dam across the Colorado river at Black canyon will bo one of the greatest engineering tasks in history, surpassed only by the Panama canal. The total cost of the project has been set at as compared with expended in the construction of the Panama canal, and for the Suez canal. According to the bureau of reclamation no reclamation or irrigation project in history equals the Boulder, dam proposal either in size or cost. The building of the dam will mean the creation of a vast inland empire in the southwest, with southern Utah receiving a large share of the benefits. The spending of millions of dol lars and the employment of thousands of men, over a period of 7 to 10 years, will be a great big thing for this section of the state. It will mean an unlimited market close at hand for everything that can, be raised; It will provide a means of livelihood for many who in years past were not employed the year around; it will increase travel over U.S. 91, now the principal artery connection southern California with the east. dam will provide for The the storage of 28,000,000 acre feet of water, this vast reservoir lying in Nevada and Arizona, extending up the Virgin above St. Thomas and up the Grand Canyon of the Colorado for many miles. The dam bill has passed both houses of congress, has received the signature of the president, but cannot become effective until the Colorado river compact is ratified by either the Utah or Arizona legislatures. It appears doubtful that it will be approved by Arizona, so it seems that Utah, holds the key to the situation. Amendments to the original bill fully protecting Utah's water rights on the Colorado and tributaries, were introduced by Senator W. H. King, accepted by Senator Johnson of California, and incorporated In the bill which was passed. This should remove the last obstacle and the Utah legislature should approve the compact. Southern Utah should unite In demanding this legislation. $165,-000,00- 0, $382,-000,00- 0. $127,-000,00- 650-fo- 0 ot Swing-Johnso- n FOREST RESERVE ABOLISHEDLONG AGO Because of the rapid depletion that was occuring In the previously abundant forests of the United States the Government set aside large timbered areas as Forest Reserves. This happened in 1891 and the few years following. The idea behind the movement was to reserve this timber for future emergencies since It was very apparent that under the methods of timber exploitation then In practice it would be only a short time until the country would be facing an acute timber shortage. After a few years, however, it was decided that the use of these large areas should not be entirely restricted but all of the resources they contained should be put to their highest prepetual use. With this policy in mind, It was felt that the term "Forest Reserves" was a misnomer and the name of these tracts of land was changed to "National Forests" in 1907. It has now been 22 years since the name "Forest Reserves" was. changed to "National Forests" and yet the majority of people still use the wrong and obsolete term "Forest Reserve" instead of "National Forests."

On Saturday, January 12th, the Beaver Valley dairymen and farmers will make a tour of the valley to look over some of the best herds and, barns and exchange ideas with each other. A new feature will be added to the, tour this year. Professor Ikeler, Dean of the School of Agriculture of our college will be here to go over Borne of the cows and give a judging demonstration. Dean Ikeler Is a very competent Judge and has a very interesting and simple manner of presenting his points so they "stick." The dairy association Is fortunate in securing Dean Ikeler at this time of year for this occasion, and will undoubtedly show him our appreciation by having a good audience for him to talk to . and with. Details of the tour cannot be given here at this time, so you will have to call one of your dairy board members or county agent to find out the hour for starting. Every farmer in the valley should plan to be present. Several cars of students and farmers from the other valley expect to be here and see what Beaver has that is making such an income each month for the valley. COMMISSIONERS IN SESSION MONDAY The regular January meeting of the Board of County Commissioners, of Beaver county was held at the court house Monday. As there was no change in the personnel of the board by the recent election, the members continued with the business affairs, of the county without interruption. Bills were allowed, and other minor business transacted Appointments of assistants for the county assessor were confirmed, as follows: Office, Mrs. Isabel Gillies; Beaver City, Earnest Joseph; Beaver precinct, A. F. Barraclough; Adams-vill- e and Greenville, Zealand Morris; Minersville, J. S. Murdock; Milford Project, Ivan McKnight, Cy Jones was appointed to assist in counting the sheep. SCOUT LEADERSHIP SCHOOL HOLDS SECOND MEETING Last Friday "night the school It Is to train men of Beaver for Scout Leadership, that scouting might go over big in our town, held its second meeting in the basement of the Public Library building. The following were present: Augustus Fernley, Blalno Blackett, Parnell Hinkley, Clydo Messinger, Don Carlow, Frank Smith Pres. T. W. Gunn, Edwin Paice, Leonard Mecham, Grant Smith, C. Dennis Bishop White, Taylor Farnsworth, Forester Taylor, Bert Griffiths, M. J. Warr, Dr. A. E. Petty Grant Tolton, John P. Barton, and Milton Gentry. Five officers were elected to head the organization; They were: President Parnell Hinkley, Vice President Dr. A. E. Petty, Sec. and Treas. Don Carlow, Executive members John P, Barton and Blaine Blackett. Tha time of meeting was set for the second and fourth Monday In each month. The Citizens of Beaver have long since realized the importance of Scout training for its boys. They have lately come to realize the great lack of men who are qualified and, trained to lead these boys in the, Scout work; men who must know Scout work and Scouting. And that is wherein this organization has come into exlstance. It is in reality a school for men, which start3 at the beginning and trains them to be good scouts." In so doing and by causing more interest in Scouting this school hopes to enable Beaver to become a leader in Scout work la the state of Utah. "Be Prepared." whose aim o Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Meredith are making extensive improvements in their home in the southeast part o? town.
