4 da Becoming Big Copper Country „ Ottawa, Canada—Canada Is becom ing one of the great copper produc ing countries of the world and ex perts believe the present mines rep resent only a small per cent of the i potential copper resources of the na tion. There is reason to think that one of the richest copper fields in Canada, so far only slightly exploit ed, awaits development in the lake region of northern Manitoba. Copper production in Canada in 1918 amounted to 117,415,829 pounds ■which at the average price in New York of 24.628 cents per pound was worth $29,163,450 as compared with 109,227,332 pounds valued at $29,687,- 989 at the average price of 27.17 cents per pound in 1917, an Increase of 1.8 per cent in value. This is aocording to a recent report on mineral produc tion by John McLetsh, B. A., chief <of the Division of Resources and Sta tistics of the Canadian government. The 1918 production is shown to have been greater than the record produc tion of 1916 which was 117,150,028 pounds. The production of pyritic ores in Quebec was 5,869,649 pounds valued at $1,445,577; in Ontario 47,047,801 pounds valued at $11,586,932; British Columbia 62,858,628 pounds valued at $15,480,823; Yukon Territory 300,000 pounds valued at $73,884. The Pas mining district produced over 2,000,- 000 pounds. The falling oft in the Yukon was due chiefly to the closing down of the Pueblo mine and the high cost of labor and supplies.

Columbus' New Organ One of World's Largest Ohio—Working night and day, shifts of workmen are rushing the installation of the Meth odist centenary celebration's $50,000 pipe organ, one of the largest in the world, in time for its dedication, June 13, it was announced by Wil liam J. Kraft, director of the cen tenary music. A concert of instru mental and vocal selections on that date has been prepared for the in augural recital of the organ in the coliseum and the premiere of the trombone choir. Transformation of the interior of the coliseum has gone on apace with the building of the organ setting and wind chambers, and Columbus residents are due for a surprise at the changed appearance of the big auditorium. A mighty proscenium flanked by pipes now fills the west end of the coliseum, while a big echo organ has been built in the east gallery. The concert, a week before the opening date of the centenary celebration, should prepare Colum bus residents for the big exposition. "The celebration organ is one of the largest in existence," said Dr. Kraft, while supervising the instal lation. "It has ninety-eight stops, many of them on high pressure. There are three pressures, twelve, fifteen and twenty inch pressures. Some idea of the need of high pres sure is conveyed by saying that some of the wood pipes are two feet in diameter, the wood being two inches thick. There are about 4,000 pipes in this organ, which also has chimes and harp attachments. "The builder of this organ, M. P. Moeller, of Hagerstown, Md., has in formed me that he knows of no bigger organ built especially for a religious organization. There are three separate blowing plans, one either side of the west end of the building, each of seven and one-half horsepower. The pipes range from a midget of three-quarters of an inch in length and one-quarter of an inch in diameter to the largest, which is thirty-two feet long. "The control and operation of the instrument is wholly electric, and the matter of wiring is not one of the least items—more than twenty one miles of wire has been installed." The organ solos selected by Dr. Kraft with which to dedicate the new centenary celebration organ are as follows: Rhapsody, R. G. Cole; intermezzo, J. Callaerts; Le Cygne, Camille St. Chosen Unanimously by Women to Represent Them in the League of Nations : smMpmmmHaHni 2* • - jt M - 'JANE AO DAM a' At the International Congress of Women held in Zurich, a resolution was adopted unanimously demand ing representation for women in the League of Nations, and that Miss Jane Addams, of Chicago, be the first woman representative, was passed unanimously. Saens; Berceuse, Godard; Hallelu jah, Handel. For the great centenary celebra tion pageant, "The Wayfarer," ar ranged by Dr. James E. Crowther, Dr. Kraft has composed an overture, four anthems, "The March of the Nations," a postlude and numerous interludes connecting the episodes of the pageant. PRAISE The late Sir Herbert Tree was per suaded in New York to attend a mat inee given by a tragedian of the old superdemonstrative school. The tragedian distinguished himself under Tree's .observant eye. He roared he gnashed his teeth, he tore about the stage like a wild Prussian when the bread ration is reduced. Between the acts Sir Herbert visited him. He lay back in an armchair in a profuse perspiration. He looked up anxiously from the towel with which he .was drying himself—he looked up hoping for a word of praise; but Tree only said, in his most flippant and airy tones: "How well your skin acts!" —Reho- both Sunday Herald.

Has- Made Possible For Americans in France Paris, May 30. —The "spring opening" of a sewer system might not be looked on everywhere us a social event, invitations to which would eagerly be sought by distin guished guests, but tne formal open ing of the Paris sewers has been such an affair. Admission wa3 by card only and important American Army officers were eager applicants for the cards. The sewers of Paris, which are fa mous in both history and lierature, haxe been closed since the beginning of the world war. In the meantime, thousands of Americans have applied in vain for permission to inspect the sewers—some of them civil engi neers interested in the structural problems worked out in the system, some of them students of literature who wished to inspect the places in which "Jean Valjean" hid from in justice. Since the war ended, sightseeing has been one of the biggest jobs of the welfare societies in Paris. The Y. M. C. A. alone entertains 40,000 members of the A. E. F. every week with sightseeing trips in and near the city, and has succeeded in hav ing many places, closed to the gen eral public, opened for the benefit of the A. E. F. The "Y" now has succeeded in getting permission to guidq limited parties through the sewers. None but engineers are ad mitted now. The Paris sewers have a total Middletowrx Former Resident Dies Suddenly at Reading Erastus Bierbower. a former resi dent of Mlddletown died very sud denly at his home in Reading- Bier bower went to work as usual, but not feeling well he returned to his home, where he expired soon after wards.

They got a way with $25 in cash and nearly all of the goods in the store. Mr. and Mrs. Martin Douglas moved from Harrisburg to South Catherine street. Mrs. A. L. Etter, accompanied by Miss Caroline Farren, of Philadel phia, and Miss Josephine Schwarz, of Harrisburg, left yesterday on an automobile trip to Pittsburgh. PERSHING'S FOREFATHERS The Pershing family history shows that one or more of the Pershing namea are Inscribed in every war in which this country fought from the Forbes campaign for the relief of Fort Pitt in 1776, to the time that General John J. Pershing led the Americans in France, and helped to carry out the wish of one of his ancestors to "redeem Alsace Lor raine," The Rev. Dr. Justus N. Per shing, of Greenburg, Pa., cousin of the general, has a letter written by one of his ancestors relating the story. The Pershing family fought in a war in 1744, but that was when the family was located in Kehe, Alsace- Lorraine, when Emperor Charles call ed out his men against the Magyars. All able-bodied men between the ages of sixteen and fifty years were called on to defend their lands against the Austrians. The? head of the Pershing family had no love for the emperor, and saved enough money to send his son to America. He scattered gold coins under his hearthstone, and in a letter directing his son to them said he hoped the money would en able him to reach America hnd that one of his forefathers would be able to return and redeem Alsace Lor raine. The boy reached America, and later, on his urgings, the family mi grated.—Detroit News. UNFAILING SPMFTOMS Mose Lightfoot—Mawnin'i Wash Lincoln —Mawnin'i "How is yo' all dis mawntn'?"

"Man alive, yo' all got de dropsy"' —Youngstown Telegram, length of '1,400 kilometers, are tra versed by a tram line, telephone and telegraph wires, pneumatic tubes by which special delivery letters are whiffed across the city and enough canals to rival Venice. There are no gondolas—the canals are not wide enough—but there are some flat boats, and joyriding in a skiff would not be an impossibility. The sewers are too far under ground for one in them to be con scious of any of the noises of the great city above, but from beneath - —seemingly far beneath come ominous rumblings. These are from the subway system, which is another of the engineering marvels of the world. Far beneath the sewers and far beneath the Seine —the sewage by the way is carried far from the city and does not touch the Seine—• the subway trains rush to and fro, carrying two million passengers a day. It all is perfectly safe, but when one hears that ominous roar and thinks of the greatef tunnels under the great system of tunnels he is in, he gets a creepy feeling. Not withstanding the eagerness of all the members of the party who attended the "opening" to-day, there were no lagging footsteps when, after an hour underground, the "Y" man who guided the party and told the story of the sewers as they went along, announced that it was time to go back to the open air. president for one day. In the list of Presidents of the United States the name of David R. Atchison does not appear. Yet in the opinion of many authorities on constitutional law Atchison was cer tainly the incumbent of the high of fice for one day only. That day was March 4. 1849. It fell on a Sunday, and General Taylor, the president elect, refused to be inaugurated on the Sabbath. In those days the Presi dent pro tern of the United States Senate was in line for the presidency in succession to the vice president and president. David R. Atchison, Senator from Missouri, after whom the city of Atchison, Kansas, was named, was then the presiding officer of the Sen ate, and hence, by this circumstance, became President of the United States from noon of March 4, 1849, to noon of the following day, when General Taylor took the oath of office.
