 Table Mountain, AriZ., Jan. 31- Special correspondence of The Rspub- lican.)-The Table Copper company, whose personnel comprises MT. Sis son of Chicago, well known as one of the active promoters of Globe, Arlz., properties; Page Bros. of Elgin cream cry fame, Chicago, and Capr. J. ID. Burgess, a vel lkonwn mining man or Arizona, and resident at Tucson, this territory, have now about 150 mem on their pay roll and in spite of the un- favorable weather snatch every avail able minute and apply it toward the completion of their sme--er site, i'm proving their wagon road, construct ing more substantial haIbi5atiOns in the camp and developing their mines:
 MT. Sisscn, who is the president of this company, was heard to make the assertion on a recent visit to their property that the company would make this camp one of the most fla nous in the west, which would auger that within a short time Table Noun tain will be swarming wih hundreds of busy men to be employed in vari GUS capacities of producing bullion.
 Of the Page Bros. the writer knows no more than, that they are shreWd and successful business men, with the means to prosecute the enterprise in accordance with the most approved methods and appliances.
 Capt. J. D. Burgess, the general manager, needs no introduction. He is well known as an indOmitable worker, one of thosa who has never lost faith in Arizona's fabulous min- eral resources and who, undismayed, when others wavered, worked on, un- til now the fruition Of his efforts lie within easy grasp, and whose n3me will soon appear upon, the roll Of min ing kings of the territory.
 MT. William Jenks. of New Mexico is general superintende nt, and from personal observation is the right man in the right place. MT. Jenks applies himself assiduClusly to the task of furthering his company's in: :erests, yet he also manifests great solici.ude in the welfare of his employees. MT Jenks son Harry recently arrived here and is acting as timekeeper, and he is we'll liked by all, owing to his affable disposition and even tempera- ment. MT. Jenks will, when the prop CT time arrives, fill the posi';ion of resident assayer for 'he company
 Among the other men in authority we must not forget to mention MT. w. c. Queen, who is widely known in Arizona and who at one time had charge of the Jersey Lily propery for MT. w. c. Bashford of Prescott.
 MT. E. A. Clark, known as "Huala- pail Clark-big, brawny and good na- tured as ever-is the mine boss. MT. Clark has valuable claims about six miles south of this camp which are under bond to this company, and it is reported that they are as good as sold at a handsome figure MT. Clark has rhe enviab1e distinction of being one of the few men who had the pleas ure Of exchanging compliments with the Winchester rife with the notori- ous Apache Kid in the shadow of
 
 which he missed the Kid but sent his squaw to the happy hunrirg grounds.
 MT. Queen has charge of the grading force, a position which he has filled since the Scarting of the wagon road. the latter part of last August. MT. Queen is well liked, and is as popular here as he has been in other camps.
 We have other celebrities here. among them Thomas, Finnigan. one of the veteran miners and prospectors of Arizona and New Mexico, and who is well known in Phoenix and in near ly every camp in the territory. MT. Finnigan has recently been suffering with a mild form of la grippe, but he will in all probability be able to show up with the active force in a few days
 There are others here from Califor- mia, Nevada, New Mexico, etc., among whom might be mentioned Louis Lindner, who came from Montana re- gently and who had never known Arizona except by reputation, and who declares that this is the richest min eral country he has ever been in. and that he will remove his family to Ari- zona as soon as he can complete ar rangementS. Mir. Lindner is an auth ority of no mean calibre on mining and has followed mining and pros pecting in the northwest for nearly a quarter of a century, He says Ari- Z0nans are fools for even giving the Alaskan diggings so much as, a thought when they have millions in prospects righr here at home, in a climate nol equalled in the known civ ilized world. Mr. Lindner also says the mineral wealth of this territory is so much greater than that of Montana that it is almost beyond comparison, and that he is surprised that so lit tie is known about the great resources of Arizona in the northwest, leaving climate out of consideration.
 The Table Mountain camp is To- cated near the summit of Table noun tain, close to the eastern boundary line of Pinal county. It is about seventy-five miles from Wilcox. Co., chise county, to which the camp is now largely tributary
