FIGHT COPPER
ORE DECISION
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah. June
11.—iA lively legal battle is expected
as a result of the Utah Copper Com
pany’s aippoall from tho decision of
the state engineer granting the ap
pUlcntion of Henry N. Standish of
Bingham for water from streams
from which ho expects to recover the
copper content.
This method of recovering copper
values has become common in the
vicinity of Bingham in tho past few
years. A wooden lank is used, part
ly filled with scrap iron and tin
When the water, carrying salts of
copper in solution, is run through the
tiank, the copper replaces the iron
by ohemicoil process
The Ufalh and other mining con
cerns claim that the copper thus de
rived comtos from their claims, and
that it belongs tfo them. The state
engineer found that the water appli
cations had (been filed in due course
to appropriate water from the natural
stream (bed, and that the granting of
such application Is within his juris
diction.
GRATEFUL PATIENTS WRITE BOOK ,
FOR NOTED KANSAS GLAND SURGEON j
Unique In the annals of medical
literature la “Shadows and Sun
shine,” an absolving volume on the
transplantation of ductleaa glands,
est published b; John R. Brinkley,
. D„ ehief surgeon of the Brink
lejr-Jones hospital at Milford, Kan
sas. The volume is a distinctive
addition to the literature of -the
ductless eland, the more so because
it approaches this interesting sub
ject from an entirely new angle.
When Dr. Brinkley, who is the
originator of ammal-to-human
gland transplantation, began im
planting goat glands into humans
in the autumn of 1917, the function
of glands was veiled in mystery.
Very little was known of the in
ternal secretions. Since then med
ical hooka, medical journals, as well
as lay journals, mrgatines and
newspapers have devsted columns
and pages to the results and argu
ments for and against this new
line of surgery. But all of these
articles have been thu work of phy
sicians and surgeons or trained
scientific observers.
"Shadows and Sonhine,” on the
other hand, takes up the subject
from the viewpoint of the patient
•—the man or woman who has had
implanted in hia or her system the
glands of the goat and who is able
to tell by personal experience of
the effects of the operation. More
than one hundred patients, mala
and female, ranging in age frmt
twenty to eighty years, all of them
1 fanner patients of Dr. Brinkley/
, nave contributed to the volume.
; Their eontribotkas are In the form
at letters written before end after
the operation and printed with their
I pgwerien. and it is from these
Sat "Shadows and Sunshine" takes
The letters written before treat
ment are extremely pathetic tn
their appeal end depict, as no nov
elist could, the depth > of physical
and mental misery to which man

are from despairing relatives who
see loved ones sinking into insan
ity before their eyes.
Bat the gloomy picture that each
of these letters paints to the read
er has its antidote in another let
ter. written by the patient after un
dergoing the operation.
Several world war veterans are
among the contributors, as well as
numerous victims of the influenza
epidemics that awept the country
a few yean ago.
The letters have been selected
carefully from several thousand
rases to cover the varied types ol
HwUMuRUMiiri.Bi
gland transplantation. Perusing
them, one learns that hardening o<
the arteries, paralysis, locomotoi
ataxia, diabetes. Bright’s disea t-e,
melancholia, impotency. sterility
dementia praecox, as -r-eil as many
other diseases, are being cured by
implanting goat-glands under local
anaesthetic, or by augmenting this
operation by major surgery, as the
nature of the case may dutnand.
To these letters Dr. Brinkley baa
added pertinent chapter* on the
ductless glands and their function,

THEFT ALLIES ARE CENSURED;
HUNCH TO CARELESS CITIZENS
BOISE, Ida., July U.—Careless citi
zens, who leave their homes without
taking ordinary precautions for its
safety, were characterized as the
burglars’ confederates in a recent
precautionary statement attributed to
ipolice officials of Boise.
It doesn't take a genius for de
duction to surmise that the family is
away if the front porch .and yard
are Uttered with newspapers, the
blinds down and on the back u.M-h
an accumulation of milk, left Men
by the milkman on his daily rounds,
according to authorities.
Dozens of different kinds of Invi
tations may be and are Issue 1 u
men whose bent if focused on burg
lary and who have a slight k 1 tck for
observing, the police officii s aver.
One of the most common “precau
Motts," it was raid, was to U.ck all
the doors, pull the blinds down and
leave the "side window" opon t > a.r
the rugs during the absence of the
occupants. This, the police anil, is
"duck soup” for ihe burglir.
Again, "little sister,” who scroa ns
across the alley to the n'-.ghbors
"little slater” that "ivo arc g> n~
away, we are, and we’re gonna be
gone two weeks,” is one com;'! . jtc
of the housebreaker. One of the
most common kinds of house burglar,
the police say, is the one who at
tempts to ascertain when the fam
ily is gotng away.
Then, it is averred, the thief as
sumes the temporary role of meter
reader, wiring inspector or carpet
cleaner, in order to get the “lay" of
things. With this knowledge, all that
is necessary to go in for the “big
haul” Is to walk up to the door,
gain admittance by means of a skele
ton key and start to work.
The art of “Jimmying" windows is
fast becoming obsolete, according, to
the police. Few house bretkers ar
rasted are found to have gained en
trance by force.
To tho person who intends to
! spend the summer vacation away
; from home, according to officials,
these rules should apply: Have the
delivery of the daily paper and milk
temporarily stopped; raise the win
dow shades, protecting the carpets
from sun-ruin by moans of covering,
jand do everything possible to make
it appear that the family Is still at
home. The house should never be
left ■without first locking the doors.
