that his poke containing a roll as
large as a man’s arm, was gone. Pete
let out a yell that awoke the natives

request and assured the maidens he
would have the ground fenced. Whei
he found that the dusky belles re
ferred to about 40 square miles ol
territory in which the tribe picked the
1 v/inter store of berries, Mr. Lomer
beat a hasty retreat.
ANACONDA WIRELESS
IS INTERFERED WITH
BY COPPER SMELTER
BUTTE, Mont., July 8 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Mysterious “knocks’
with which the big wireless plant on
Anaconda hill, which was completed
several weeks ago by the Montana
Power Company, has, ever since i1
opened for service, been troubled, now
are ascribed to the Cottrell plant at
the Anaconda Copper Mining Com
pany’s Washoe smelter at Anaconda.
The Cottrell plant is a huge electri
cal affair with more than 1,000 kilo
watts of power. Its fires extend
throughout the height of the big stack
which exceeds 500 feet, and its pur
pose is to discharge electrical energy
into the gases arising within the
stack. These discharges are be
lieved responsible for the “knocks”
which bothered the wireless. Gener
al Superintendent Buck of the Mon
tana Power Company said that the dis
turbances, it is thought, will be over
come by changing the length of the
wireless wave.
MOROCCAN PHOSPHATE

PARIS, July 8 (by Associated

One hundred miles inland from Casa
blanca there is a mountain plateau,
40 miles long and 25 miles wide which

A railway is to be built to this moun
tain and a monopoly has been given
to the Moroccan government for the
sale of the phosphate.
France already has huge potash de
posits in Alsace.
