NEW LIFE BOAT DAVIT WILL BE INSTRUMENTAL IN SAVING MANY LIVES 'CUBS v cir 1 y ; I BICH rrllNES TO BE ME RICHER Two Properties in the Galice District Taken Over by Big Capitalists. GOLDEN ROAD PAID WITH A SMALL MILL By Means of This New Da Tit the In ventor Claims That Lifeboats Can be Lowered From a Vessel's Deck With a Minimum of Effort and Risk. '-, Christian Smith, second officer of the Norwegian steamer Henrlk Ibsen, la the Inventor of a lifeboat davit that . bids fair to become universally adopted because of Us great superiority over the old fashioned davit now In use on craft of every nation. The Henrlk lb sen Is In Portland harbor at .present loading a cargo of flour for the orient :snd by reason of that fact and the Co- vjumoia aiaaater, a description or tne new oavii wm oe or more tnan ordinary inieresi. . The davit consists of an arch-shaped "frame of channel iron somewhat like . the old-style davit, but the boat rests on chock fitted obliquely on deck and held In position by two iron bars coupled together with a pin. The Chocks fall when the boat Is released ytnVtt frame drops over the side until toppea Dy us supports on its station ary part The frame holds the boat several feet, or an oar's length at least. - from the side of the ship, thus elimi nating the danger of It being crushed by the force of the waves. 1 :. The boat can easily be lowered by one man because the turning point of the davit Is below the center of bal ance and : the upper part has a slight cant' upward, ss will be seen In the Il lustration. By reason of tnis all that has to be done Is to release the frame held in place by a tackle, the end of which is - made fast to the stationary part of ' the frame, and the boat will move sea war a oy its own weigm. ' Mr. Smith is a lieutenant In the Norwegian navy and his Invention has met with much favor In the land of the born sailors. The first trials of this davit were made on the 21st of last December In Norway, under the aus nlcea of the board -of trade and repre sentatives, of the navy on board the Norweg-laA steamer Cecelia. The boat was resting on Its chocks and lashed as at sea, when at a given signal it was let go, and In a tnlnute and 15 seconds - l ,u. tn it fullest Capacity. That trial proved it to be a success in every parncumr. mi yentlons of modern times, and recom mended It to Admiral Sparre, of the Norwegian fleet who In turn strongly advised the government to place the davit on H. MT S. Helmdai for trial. Coming Into Oeneral Use. Some of the principal ship owners of- that country are ritting tneir snips wun them. Dr. Nansen, the famous Arctio explorer Is among those who strongly recommend the Invention. The davit Is very simple. One man is sufficient to lower the frame over the side of . the ship and two men could lower the largest life boat run or pas sengers. All this Is done from' the boat Itself, so there Is no danger or any of the passengers being lpst overboard, as is the case with the davits now in use. It Is so simple In construction that In an emergency the passengers could work It. An additional advantage Is tn the length -of the frame, which gives ample room for the boat to swing clear ithout striking the ship's side. This is at present one of the greatest dangers naval officers present agreed 'that it in lowering a boat In a heavy sea. was one of the most useful nautical In- 1 Lieutenant Smith has done away with this danger by Ingeniously furnishing his davit with two upper blocks for the boat tackles, instead of the ordinary double block now in use. The outer block Is placed at the davit, and the other one about three feet further "In board." With the ordinary davit a number of men are required for each boat, and with the excited passengers crowding Into them they soon become overcrowded and quickly swamp. With Lieutenant Smith's Invention such a. thing is Im possible, i as two men are sufficient to man each boat and all the boats can be got in readiness at the same time. The man in command quickly uncovers the boat and releases the pin and aa soon as he gets Into the boat It la ready to receive the passengers. When full he lowers away on the frame tackle, the boat swings free and no one else can get into it As soon as the boat strikes the water it Is free from the ship's side, and thus that dan ger Is obviated. Those who man the oars may have them shipped before the boat touches the water so aa to be in in stant readiness to puu away rrom the With Adequate Equipment and Deep Workings, It Will Be Hlntw- Copper Eagle Is Also Taken Into Strong Hands District Active. r stant ship.

One hundred thousand dollars aa defense fund was pledged at yesterday's meeting of the Pacific Coast LumDer Manufacturers' association. Secretary R. W.

The Golden Road Mining company has un der way the development of the Golden Wedge group of quarts claims of Galice district, on a big scale. While this is a new company, the Golden Wedge Is one of the oldest quarts mines in southern Oregon, development and operation dating back eighteen years. It has produced several fortunes, having been equipped for a long time with a mill and reduction plant. Though the muiing capacity or tne plant is small, the rich ore has given handsome profits. The now owners will deeply develop the Golden Wedge. The tunnels will be driven In below the old workings, Rnd will tap the ore body at greater depth. The small plant that has been employed will be dismantled and a larger and more modern one installed. The mine will also be equipped with up-to-date hoist, compressor, machine drills and pumps. The company is composed of wealthy eastern men. Ample funds are at their disposal for complete devel opment and equipment Several mem bers of the company visited the prop erty recently, making an examination and laying plans for future work. Those who came out were Paul Bright, presi dent of the company, and his son. both of Wilmington, Delaware; Samuel 811s alnger of Wilmington: W. J. Cleland, wlf and son of Philadelphia, and J. L. Garret of Chester, Pennsylvania. Another Zs the Copper Sagle. Another Oallce property that has re cently changed hands and which will be deeply developed and extensively operated Is the Copper Eagle, vlt was takn over a few days ago by R. B. Dosn and- associates of Los Angelas. ThS new owners will expend a big sum In shaping the mine for ODeraUon. The Copper Eagle has been under develop ment 10 years. It has a big bodv of ore exposed, the ledges carrying values In both copper and gold. For two years It has shipped considerable ore. much of it giving returns of several hundred dollars to the ton. Oallce district is more active this summer than It has been since the early days of mining. The activity of the present, however, unlike that of the; palmy days, is directed upon quarts In stead of placer.. More than 20 quarts mines, copper and gold, are being de veloped in me district, many or tnem gigantic propositions, with able com pan lea behind them. The development ana equipment ana tne ultimate opera tion of these properties will make Galice a district of importance In Ore gen. The camp is located on Rogue river, ana reached by wagon road from urants rass or Merlin. We Want You to Know It !
