Going Stronger Bingham Mines recent accession to new high levels on the Boston Stock exchange results from a number off actors, the chief of which are in-creased earnings, larger output, high- er metal prices and reduction of out-standing Ktock from 150,000 to 50,-00- 0 shares. This has been done at a 1.583,48, or an average ol 115.83 a share. Production of the company for the first seven months of 1925 was pounds of lead; 719,000 oun-ces of silver; 337,000 pounds of copper and 2353 ounces of gold, as compared with a production of 7,057,000 pound of lead, 914,000 ounces of silver, 367,-00- 0 pounds of copper and 4265 ounce of silver for the year 1924. Current production rate is at an average oi 9,600,000 pounds of lead and 1,236,-00- 0 ounces of silver yearly. Earnings for August were approx-imately $72,000. If Jirn intra nit:nilA I at a rate of $50,000 monthly during the next four months net income ol the company for 1925 should be $559,-00- or $11 a share. Up to date, earnings of the com-pany amount to over $7 share pel annum on the present stock, as com-pared with earnings in the corres-ponding period of 1924 of $106,000 oi $2 a share, or $1.51 a share on tht 70,000 shares then outstanding. Thit improved income has no doubt in-duced the eonpany to announce that at the next directors' meeting in De-cember the dividend rate of the com-pany will probably be increased fron oO cents a share to $1 a share quar terly. This amount has been earned between one and a half and two timer over during the first eight months ol che current year. iSince the conpany's organization in 1908 it has retired bonds to the a mount of $1,503,000; invested $187,-00- 0 in the Victoria property and $884,-00- 0 in the present 97 per cent equity in the Eagle and Blue Bell prop-erty; paid $766,000 in dividends, anc $1,583,000 for the purchase of 100,000 hares of stock.

Do you wish to sound the merits of your friends? Do you seek to locate missing or lost articles? All these Urines may be accomplish ed and your mind set at rights with the world. October 9 and 10, All Din "The Man Who Knows All," will be at the ISIS Theatre to place his won-drous powers as a seer at the dispo-sal of those patrons of the local show house who will take him into their confidence and ask his aid. i All Din will positively answer every question put to him, besides telyng the innermost secrets of persons in all parts of the house, those entirely out of touch with the seer or any member of the house staff. Coming direct to America less than one year ago from India, the cradle ' of mysticism, and home of advanced necromancy, Ali Din has already won an unusual place in the ranks of the seers on the western hemisphere. It is not often that those in the smaller towns are given an opportunity to witness this wonder man's unusual demonstrations, and it is only because of his wish to visit Bingham that the management of the ISIS theatre was enabled to secure his presence here. A distinct feature of Ali Din's ap-pearances are his matinees for ladies only, which will be held on Saturday October 10. At that time only those of the fair sex will be admitted. Every question put to the seer at that time will be held in strict confidence, and in no way will others in the audience be apprised of the identity of the lady seeking advice and aid from the my-stic's vast store of experience. Funeral Services Held For Mrs. C.H. Pierce Funeral services for Mrs. C. H. Pierce, Jr., of Copperfield who died at the Bingham Hospital on Tuesday, of last week following an operation were held at the L. D. S.

A car was needed for the transporta-tion of the beautiful floral tributes, some coming from California. Mrs. Pierce is survived by her hus-band, a daughter and two sons, he mother, Mrs. W. Webb and a brother Richard of Lark, Mrs. Frank Weice of Milford, her stepfather, W. Webb, two stepsisters, Mrs. Vernal Hoglund of Midvale and Miss Kattie Webb of Lark.

William Totten replied and after difficulty as-sisted Mrs. Wheatley to safety. She was removed to the Big Sisters Hos-pital and soon recovered. Mrs. Wheat-le- y will be best remembered in Bing-ham as Miss Emma Greathouse who resided with her father and brother at the Bourgard Apartments and lefi Bingham some 'months ago for the coast town. Her many friends in Bing ham will learn of her rescue with pleasure. Gem Theatre Has Al-ways Employed Union Operator Last week thru a regrettable error we announced the Isis Theatre was the only motion picture show house in Bingham Canyon that was em-ploying a Union operator. Naturally any man who is a union operator and carries a card resents any publicity which gives the public the impression he is not connected with such an or-ganization. Mr. H. C. Lyle of the GEM Theatre wishes us to rectify the sta-tement that appeared in these column last week and to state that he has been connected with projection mach-ine unions since he has been in the business for the past twelve years, and is still a traveling member of Union No. 426 of Casper, Wyoming, of the International Alliance of Thea-trical Stage Employees and Moving Picture Machine Operators of the United States and Canada, which is ample proof of his ability as a pro-fessional operator.
