This science is also coming into Its own as an aid to the operation of craft upon Inland rivers. Maj. W. w. Parker, chief clwk of the American Engineers' office Cincinnati, originated broadcasting of river stage report over station WLW? In response to a circular letter sent out by Major Parker to test recently the value of this service, the lockmas-ter-s and transportation companies operating Ohio river craft have given enthusiastic Indorsement of the value received from this service.. Kiver stage reports are broadcast each morning and are picked up by the lockmasters and boat captains along the Ohio river and its tributaries from a point a few miles south of Pittsburgh to Cairo, m. Lockmasters find this service extremely valuable. All of the fifty dams the Ohio are movable and the along of reports the rising and falling of the river enable the lockmasters to know when to raise and when to lower the dam. The dams are made of wicket, a device invented by a Frenchman and tried out in the Ohio river for the first time at Davis island dam, seven miles below Pittsburgh, in 1879. When all of the wicket sections are in position they form a barrier. When the river Is rising, the dam tender goes out in a maneuvering boat, equipped with a derrick, and lowers each section to the bottom of the river, and the traffic goes over the dam Instead of through the locks. As for the steamboat captains, the reports enable them to determine the stage at which they must navigate, and to know when they will "go through locks and when they will go over the dam. They can sit in their cabins and compare the river stage reports with the draft of their boats, which tells them what precautions they must take to steer to the channel. Many Ohio river craft tow a large number of barges of coal. It Is difficult to maneuver such a tow under the best conditions. In the absence of accurate information as to river stages, the craft may be caught on a sandbar for a week or two. The promptness of the radio information is especially appreciated by river men, as they receive the nronn- In casting, many cases, several hours aneaa or the printed report.

"Pike's Peak or $k was to be soon homeward bound the next year with the first brave slogan wiped out, and In its place the single word. "Busted." But some of those who failed of success In that rush were of sterner stuff. They pressed on across the Colorado range and found gravel in South Park. In the spring of 1SC0 some of these launtless prospectors worked their -way across the second range Into the headwaters of the Arkansas river. from which many millions of dollars' worth of placer gold was destined to be washed. No sooner had thv first parties worked their way Into thU ritory than gold strikes were reported In what was known as California Gulch. Slater 'lurrier. Rafferty. Stevens and Tabor were names among the earliest of those who found the coveted treasure. The inner netnnnrlinrv thtnr nhnnf the California Gulch strikes was the rapidity with which the news spread. Although the region was one of the wildest into which prospectors had yet ventured and almost no one had even traveled through the region prior to the strikes of US(50, seventy prospectors poured Into, the gulch within a few days after word of the dislJU'U l s covery had gone out.

FAMOUS How Sun Determines Volume on Long Waves That the sun's activity is probably the chief factor in determining the radio signals strength of long-wav- e was the most important conclusion in the annual report of the laboratory for special radio- transmission research prepared by Dr. L. W, Austin, of the bureau of standards. In addition to the curves and tables showing the routine measurements of the laboratory, curves were shown in tbe report which indicate a close resiglationship between the long-wav- e nal strength and the changes in number of sun spots during the eleven-yea- r sun-spcycle, the signals increasing in strength with the increase of sun spots. Other curves given show periodic changes in the signals during the time of the sun's rotation (twenty-sidays), while others indicate a nine-da- y period In the case of certain stations. Some of these curves also suggest fixed active areas on the sun, which often produce Increase In signal strength when they face the earth. These periodic relationships, however, are not considered as well established as the relationship of the monthly and yearly averages of sun spots and sig nals extending over a number of - x year -- Stomach Disorders Homestake and the Black Hills rich gold deposits of the THAT the Hills in South Dakota should have remained practically untouched until after 18S0 was due chiefly to the jealousy with which the Sioux Indians kept whites off the mammoth reservation that had been given them by the government under the treaty of 1858. This treaty guaranteed the Sioux against the encroachment of white men. Stories of Black Hills gold originated in the tales told by a Belgian priest, Father De Smet, who lived with the Sioux in the first half of the Nineteenth century and reported many finds of nuggets. In 1874 the government sent General Custer to make a military reconnois- sance of the region, and he took with him Prot N. H. Winchell, a famous geologist of the University of Minnesota, who later played a big part in the discovery of Minnesota's iron deposits. Gold was discovered by this party, and as a result of their reports a party of miners who thought themselves strong enough to fight off the Sioux, established themselves in a blockade on French creek. The government, however, lived up to its treaty and brought them out. But news of the gold strike had spread and the invasion of the Indian reservation now seemed inevitable. In 1S75 the government sent another party to prospect the Black Hills under strong military escort. This expedition confined its attentions chiefly to the southern part of the hills because of the dense forests that made the more northern areas practically inaccessible. It did not even reach the region of the Homestake mine. One of the geologists found abundant gold in the Whitewood and Deadwood gulches and described them as "the best place in the hills for a poor miner." Much of the gold district of the northern Black Hills has been referred to as the "Homestake" without discrimination between a number of prop--, erties of which that particular mine is one. The Homestake and the Old Abe deposit nearby, are said to have been located In 1876 by two French boys. Moses and Frederick Manuel. The Homestake property passed Into the hands of a group of well known mining capitalists, among them J. B. Hag-giand George Hearst the father of William Randolph Hearst. The son Is still a prominent owner in the property and Its profits helped support hla papers In their early days. This mine Is celebrated among geologists as one that has always been made to pay although the ore on which It Is based is not of a particularly rich variety. The splendid technical skill with which operations have been carried on, however, has made it famou? for Its profits. n 1927, Weatern Newspaper Union.)
