Production Of Mineral Waters
The sales of the mineral water in
the United States in 1007, as reported
to the United States Geological Sur
vey, show that the financial criHis
came too late in the year to affect
materially the business done by well
and spring owner*, The total sales of
table and medicinal waters amounted
to 58,0(10,520 gallons, valued at $7,331,*
508, comparod with 48,108,580 gallons,
valued at $8,020,387, in 1906, an in
orease in the quantity of 3,851,040
gallons and a decline In value of
9600,884. Tho lessened valuation is
dwo to the lower selling prices re
ported by a number of springs, tho
result, probably, of competition The
Surrey, in its totals, takes no account
of strictly artificial waters nor of tho
water used in making such sweetened
beverage* as ginger ale, sarsaparllla,
•to., figures returned by spring and
well owners show that 5,255,535 gal
lons of the mineral water, valued
nominally at $303,115, were used for

FAIR ACTRESS IN
IRANKRUPTCY C0UR1
New York, Oct. 15—Edna Wallace
Hopper, the dainty little actresh who
at one time was the wife of Do Woll
Hopper, the comedian, spent a trying
forenoon today, trying to convince
the court that she is entitled to
posession of many diamonds, automo
biles and other trinketH presented to
i her by A. O. Brown, head of the
j bankrupt brokerage firm that opera
ted under his name. The creditor*
beleive that the gifta presented tc
Minn Hopper were purchased with
money that wan theira and that these
name gifts should rightfully he sold tc
help defray the debts of tho defunct
i firm; hence the necessity of dragging
Miss Hopper into the bankruptcy
| court.
Miss Hopper accounted for the
| generosity of Brown by declaring
that she is his promised wifo, and
she expressed tho opinion that such
gift# as have by Brown been be
; stowed upon her, are no more than
I a woman might expect from her af
I flanced. By no means does Mist
Hopper see anything extraordinary ir
I the fact that a man in the financial
j ooaition she supposed Brown to oc
cupy should give his bride-to-bo a
; touring car and a run-about; dia
I mond Minbtirsts are, under the cir
1 ciimstunces 10 bo expected as a mat'
I ter of course.
| The lawyers for tho creditors fai
j to agree with Miss Hopper, and they
asked her many embarraning ques
j tions but without, to any outward
! appearance, embarrassing her; «he
' is engaged to Brown and all else
matters not. Also she has the gemi
and the automobiles, but for how
; long is a question.
Her« 1h Chump Clark's defense oi
humor, if it need# one:
"The dry-as-dusts solemnly assev
erate that humor never did any good.
Now, let's sco. How did 'Private'
John Allen of Mississippi get to oon
grcss? Joked himself in. One bit of
humor sent him to Washington, a
! national lawmaker. Opposing him
for the congressional nomination was
the Confederate General Tuoker.
They met on the stump, General
Tucker dosed one of his speeches as
follows:
" 'Seventeen years ago tonight, my
fellow citizens, after a hard fought
battle on yonder hill, I bivouacked
under youder clump of trees. Those
of you who remember as I do the
times that tried men's souls will not,
I hop«, forget their humble servant
when the primaries shall be held.'
"That was a strong appeal in those
days, but John raised the general at
his own game. 'My fellow eitisens,'
he said, • what General Tucker says
to you about bivouacking under yon
d»r clump of trees is true. It is also
true, my fellow citisens, that I was a
vedette picket and stood guard over
him while he slept. Now then, fel
low clriicns, all you who were gener*
als and had privates to stand over
you while you slept vote for General
Tuoker, and all of you who were pri
vates and stood guard over the gen
erals while they slept vote for Private
John Allen.' The people caught on,
took John at his word and sent htm
to congress, where he stayed until
tho world was filled with his renown."

A diamond drill will he used In
prospecting the property of the Gale

bay. Col. Millard, manager of the
company, left Chicago yesterday
with the drill and equipment, and Is

MISS BENEDICT IS
NOW EXPLAINING
Asserting that she waa misquoted
somewhat in the published story of
her address delivered before the Se
attle Ministerial Association, Miss
Mabel Benedict Las attempted to set
i herself right by sending to the Seat
, tie papers statements in which ahe
tries to tell "just what I did aay."
In the P-I of October 2, Miss Benedict,
asked for an expression of opinion
i concerning the statement of L. V.
Hay, assistant district attorney, in
which he defends the sailors of the
revenue cutter service, expresses
i surprise that the official should
deny the existance of conditions
akin to those she described.
In her remarks anent the Hay
statement, Miss Benedict dwells up
on the horrors consequent upon turn
ing "600 or 600 men ashore at one
time" and says that any one with
the least imagination can picture the
condition of the native woruon under
such circumstances. Then she says:
"My object iu speaking as I have
done was not to make an attack on
the Bailors, but to enlist the sympa
thies of our young men of the Young
Men's Christian Association to such
an extent that they might he pre
vailed upon to take up mission work
among the sailors up there."
Mips Benedict proceeds to declare
that she delivered her address at the
expressed wish of the officers of the
cutter service, who, ahe sava are
doing all in their power to better the
condition of the native women. At
the same time Misa Benedict inaiata
that it is from the men of the revenue
cutter service that comes the great
est trouble.
In a letter addressed to The Times
under date of October 1, Miss Bene
dict says that she did not make the
statement that the officers are not
much better than the men, and that
she did not say that it waa necessary
I for the teachers of tho mission to
protect themselves with guns. The
rest of the letter is devoted to en
larging upon the "horrible condi
tions" existing to the westward, so
far as the native women are con
cerned.
TWO HUNDRED MEN
ARE BURIED ALIVE
Vienna, Oct. 15—Two hundred men
are entombed in the Koening mine
near her* end there in little hope that
even one of them will escape. The
scene around the mine in indoBcrlhable.
Many of the men are married and
their wives and children are assemb
led at the upper workings imploring
that something be done to save thoso
imprisoned hundreds of feot under
ground.
The calamity cornea as the result
of an explosion of gas, and the mino
officials are of the belief that a great
number of those under ground are
dead as a.result of the Are now rag
ing in the lower workings. Whether
or not this be so, it is impossible to
take any steps toward effecting a res
cue as the fire has cutoff all approach
to that section of the mino wherein
the men are entombed. It may be
necessary to flood the mine to extin
guish the Are, but this will not be
done until after it is certain that
those imprisoned have died.
