Globe.

Globe is the gem of tbe mountainous regions of Gila county, and is the near est town of any size or pretentions, to the White Mountain Indian reservation. It Is built on either side of cailon and Is extremely picturesque in appearance. It is 3 model mining town and it sub sists solely upon that industry.
 At present the old Dominion Copper company IS the only active and produc- ing property in the camp, owing to the low price of copper. This company is running only one of its two stacks and Is turning out about nine tons Of cop per per day that is from 9S to 99 fine. To sprOduce -thls amount 1t requires nearly fifty tons of ore, giving an aver age yield uf nearly twenty per cent of metal. The ore is abundant and the two plants could be kept running inst as easily as one. The ore carries its own fiux and the metal comes out like deep red water from the furnace. The excellence ot tine Globe copper makes It sought after, in the east, for conversion into brass, and 1t brings very fair price. The coke used IS all hauled from Wil- COX, distance Of l32 miles, at Gn enor- nous cost. the English coke costing at the furnace S5l per ton and the Color ado, coke S46 per ton. The teams have freight both ways-cOke up and bullion down. The mine and mill employ about one hundred men and the pay roll of the company aggregates S3j,OO0 per month, about half of which is paid to the men employed and finds its way into cir cuiation in that place. Dr. Trippell, a thorough metallurgist and a very capa- ble gentleman, IS superintendent of the works, and J. II. CanRvan, an experi- enced and efficient mill man, Is the smelter, and be gives a very close Bt- tention to his work. J. c. Ogden IS the draughtsman and civil engIneer of the company. He is well known Tn Nevada and California and has often been en- gagged in great and important enter prises. Col. Jones, also connected with the company, IS a gentleman of extreme urbanity and good nature.
 The Silver Belt IS an institution that Globe cannot well exist without. At least 1t is responsible for the good opln- ion the world holds of that mining camp. It is conducted by Judge Hackney, journalist of ripe experience, rare genius and original ideas. He IS devoted to the interests of hIs home and his territory, and yields powerful fsber in its defense. The Judge is the oracle of the town, and with all the honors that arc shovered upon him he takes the most exqulslte pleasure in extending open handed hos pitslity to every appreciative human being about him. To the stranger even, h1s hearty welcome tells of the great flow of the milk of human kindness from his soul. The Judge publishes @ model newspaper, and upon all current topics he usually expresses his firm convictions in unmistakable and consistent Ian guage.
