errand to Denver at this time is to in vestigate the reports of the discover ies that are said to have been made here during the past year. II they turn out to be true I have number of friends who propose to invest quite largely and make an earnest effort to put the mines they may secure into productive condition at once.
 "There is nothing in the way of business that promises more constant and profitable returns. A mine with a vein of copper ore yielding from 10 to 30 per cent copper in sufficient quantities is much better than gold mine, as I believe such ore will bring in the open market not less than 10 cents a pound for the copper contained in a very short time, and any man who has a vein of this kind of ore will not have to look far for customer if he desires to sell.'

CHLORINATION TAILINGS.
An Interesting Process Described by
 a Mining Journal.

However carefully the ore may be treated, a certain portion of gold re- mains in the tailings, varying, other things being equal, according to the character of the ore. In case this re- suits, in part, from the presence of particles too large to be entirely dis solved, that portion can be extracted by re-treatment, either with gas, by chlorine water, or by amalgamation. But a portion. which is sometimes quite considerable, still remains, and resists every mode of chlorination Or amalgamation, and can only be eX tracted by smelting with lead.
 In general it may be said that gold which can be seen by the aid of lens, after finely grinding, and care fully washing a sample of the tail ings, can be extracted by chlorina tion, or malgamation; but that which cannot be thus rendered visible can neither be chlorinated nor amalga- mated, even if the ore be re-roasted, with or without regrinding. of re- ground it forms a pasty mass which cannot be leached being almost inn pervious to water.) Of course that ore is supposed to be properly roasted i'll the first instance.
 Concentrated sulphides containing gold, and free from lead, will frequent ly yield as much as 98 per cent of the fire assay, if moderately rich, but the extraction of 95 per cent is considered a good result. from Gre containing S100 worth of gold in a ton. As the ma terial loses about "A per cent of its weight in the roasting and leaching it will readily be perceived that, if there has been no sensible loss of gold in the roasting, the tailings from such ore will assay about s6 per ton, and for every one hundred tons of ore treated there will be seventy-six tons of tailings, containing $456 worth of gold.
 Tailings of this character, consist ing chiefly of iron peroxide. make an excellent flux for the smelting of ga lena. All the precious metal they contain is extracted, together with tn lead set free from the galena by the action of the iron oxide, and may be considered as clear profit to the smell ter, who is obliged to use some kind of iron flux, and can find nothing, un- less it be metallic iron, better adapted to his purpose than these tailings.- Mining and Scientific Press.

PROSPECTING A SCIENCE.
One Must Understand the Formation in
 Which He Works.

Mining is now a legitimate business, devoid Of gambling, and the search for new fields of the precious metals is now not with the accidental, but rather the scientific investigator. The practical prospector is rapidly taking the place of the ignorant and mex perienced He has paid for his knowl- edge, not by years in the management of paying properties, but by years of loss mixed up with gains, to lndel1biy impress his experience upon the men tai faculties It is business to which few are adapted and fewer still are successful. There is nothing in the business world that requires such wide range of knowledge as that of mining and prospecting. The practi- cal prospector of today understands every detail of the solfstaric, dynamic and chemical factors most effective in the worlds past periods of universal formation. He has learned that while heat, water and vapOrs have produced deposits in veins and otherwise, many of which have proven valuable, that the greater part of the great bonanzas of the world are always in connection with two of the six principal divisions of igneous or eruptive ricks-trachyte and fe1syte-the former generally ly- ing in great fields and truncated masses, the latter in dikes and over flows and older formations. These again have been divided into various characteristics, owing to the periods of eruption or subsequent metamor- phism, all of which have been instru- mental in materializing the adjoining country rocks in veins and deposits. And the secrets of the success of the modern prospector and mine manager lies in his knowledge of the dates and effects of the porpnyry overf1ows and intrusions. The advance from prehis toric mining was slow, but is now coeval with all other industries and scientific tainments.-Yuma Senti- nel.

NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

Karl F. Miller, president of the Franco-American Mining company of Gro Blanco, is in Tucson.
 Some extensive work is proposed at an early date on the Black Diamond group in the Dragons recently bond ed to N. O. Bagge. Encouraging news to that effect was received by the Tombstone Prospector and arrange ments are being perfected looking to that end.
 George Stone is in Tucson from the Santa Ritas. He says work on the Blue Jay mine is going on nicely. Ore IS being taken out for shipment
 Superintendent Gould of the Orc Mining company has temporarily talk en charge of the Old Glory property in flma county. In run of thirteen aays he cleaned up something over sl,2o0 worth of bullion which he brought to Tucson Saturday. The property is unfortunately in litigation.
 The Commonwealth at Pearce is another product of the desert. The mlne and mill are operated with a force of about 100 men. The ores are iree milling and the values are high Ill gold and silver. The mill is of A German pattern, with balls, vanners ana settlers. The very high grade ore IS not milled, but is shipped to the smelters. This property is eighteen miles southeast of Cochise and the workings are in a hill which rises 300 feet from level plateau.
 Douglas Snyder was in Tucson Sat urday from his mines in the Sierritas l The property is known as the Pantiac group and is among the best developed in the country. On the Copper Glance mine over 800 feet of development work has been done. For the past twenty months from three to eight men have been constantly employed and several properties opened in 8 Workmanlike manner The grade ot the ore is high and ledges large and property valuable. A fortune is saiG to be in sight for the fortunate own- CTS.
 Within the past year the Copper Queen at Bisbee has increased the ca pacity of it's smelting plant. There are now four copper blast furnaces three sets of converters and three Til ton wells in use. By means of tht wells, after the slag has been takeI soff, the valuable material is conveyed idirectly from the wells to the convert CTS, thus avoiding resmelting. Th' engine capacity has also been increas

ABNORMAL DEMAND FOR COPPER
There is Not a Sixty Days Supply in
 the Country

Copper is in greater demand to- day" said L. N. Trimble of New York at the miners bureau in Denver to Republican reporter, than it has ever been. There is not in the country a isXty days supply of all kinds of cop per, and of that particular quality used for electrical engineering do not think there is thirty days supply Copper cannot be bought today for ninety days delivery for less than 121A cents pound, and as the demand is constantly increasing the price will undoubtedly go still higher.
 "The great danger to the copper in dustry from this condition of affairs is that the price will go so high be- fore new sources of supply are dis covered and opened up that a substi- ute will be discovered, in which event the vested interests in copper mines and manufacturing enterprises will be in danger of serious loss. As a result there is feverish anxiety on the part of all who are interested in copper in any form to find new copper deposits.
 Phelps. Dodge & Co.,, who practically control the copper trade of the coun- try, have an agent in the field all the time looking up alleged copper finds, with view to the opening of the properties in case they are promising. The reports received from Colorado are extremely f1attering. and if the dis coveries in Paradox valley, in the La Sal mountains and in Unaweep canyon are half what has been reported they will be the scenes of wonderful ac- tivity during the coming season.

IN WEAVER DISTRICT.
New Development in This Well
 Known Mining District.

w. A. Scott, writing to the Mining and Scientific Press from Stanton, says:
 Charles Davies has the Peery mine and mill leased, near Stanton, and is making a success of the work. The hill has ten stamps and two concen- trators. Twenty tons a day are being milled, resulting in saving two-thirds of the values on the plates and the most of remainder in the concen- trates; total saving of S15 per ton.
 The Gold King M and M. company have a group of claims on Rich Hill, which they are developing, their tests being made on a prospecting mill. George B. Upton, superintendent, says the purpose is to erect ten stamp mill.
 The Rich Hill Gold company, owned chiefly by MT. Hayden of Cincinnati, is developing it's properties from a 200 foot shaft. The entire district in the vicinity of Rich Hill produces a gold bearing sulphuret of lead and iron. The Hayden property contains some antimonal lead, where the formation is a contact between slate and gran ite This property is in charge of A. Peterson.
 Placer workers and nugget hunters have found Rich Hill a profitable field for the last thirty-five years. Exper- fenced miners are beginning to get a foothold in the district, and with little capital to help them along their work will soon begin to tell. Stanton and Rich Hill are seven miles from the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix railroad at Congress Junction.
 The Fools Gulch mine and mill re- mains closed down. The mine is claimed to be good one, but it is be- lieved a mistake was made as to the construction of the reduction plant, which was built at considerable out lay.
