REFORMUTGRY IS TOO SMAIL New’ State Penal Institution Already Overcrowded; Prison Is Overflowing Indianapolis, Dec. 12. — fUnited Press.) Indiana’s criminal population is increasing so rapidly that the new state reformatory at Pendleton already is too small to care for the men sentenced to serve terms there. This statement was made by John Brown, secretary of the Indiana state board of charities. Brown eayilafned that when plans for the Pendleton institution were drawn that is was planned to accommodate 1,200 persons. The present population is 1,600 and it has been necessary to confine two men in one cell and erect temporary quarters to care for the overflow. The reformatory officials have appealed to the state prison authorities asking them to help care for the overflow but that is impossible as the ' Michigan City institution now has 1,750 prisoners, considerable more i than capacity. Brown says that today there are more than 15,016 persons confined in >the twenty state institutions. Os this number one-half or 8,240 are confined in hospitals for the insane. The state blind and deaf school has 464 inmates, the two state hospitals for the sick 424 and the homes for soldiers and their dependents 862.

six "goosenecks’’ of standard CooperHewitt mercury vapor studio lamps will be included In the equipment, as well as single and double Klleg and Wohl lamps so well known to movie fans as the cause of what is popularly known as "Klieg” eyes. Spotlights varying in intensity from seventy-five to 250 amperes and the usual hand and subsidiary spots will be acquired. “I have been instructed to use any means necessary to insure rapid transportation of this equipment from New York city to the Sun City studios," said Mr- France just previous to taking his train. “jts Igo north I will check up on the embargo situation and if necessary will* loute the lamps by water to St. I'etersburg, Jacksonville or Tampa and truck the apparatus to Sun City. There are certain other big things brewing of which I am not at liberty to speak, but picture production will t.o farward in full blast as soon as the new equipment reaches here and is set up.” o New Method Revives Colorado’s Faftious Mines Denver, Colo., Dec. 12. — (United Press.) —Enormous piles of slack, ore discarded because it was believed valueless, has again come to life in Colorado. By means of ki new process of extracting metals from ore, these “valueless" stacks are expected to produce wealth far in excess of the famed titanic gold deposits discovered at Cripple Creek years ago. In the early days of mining in the state, low grade ore, or ore too refractory to be treated in mills or smelters, was cast aside. Much of this discard is rich in zinc and lead and it also contains some gold and silver. Metallurgical experts say that millions of dollars worth of metal is recoverable from these piles of slag end large mining interests are backing up these men’s opinions. Already mills are being erected in five of the leading mining camps for the treatment of low grade zinc and lead ores. Mining experts jere combing the state for new sites. The process to be usAd on the low grade ores is what is technically known as “selective flotation.” z j From a nontechnical standpoint | selective flotation, is merely the use

of certain reagents, combined with oil, which free the finely divided particles of metal and makes them float on the surface of tanks whence J they can be recovered. Most of the mining camps ot the; state, where wealth was brought up 1 from the earth in bucketfuls, have been practically deserted, but now new activity abounds. Mining tnen say that there is much more wealth to be brought out of the piles of slack than ever came out of the ground, while unlimited tons still
