When one leaves his watch to be repaired he

IN THE VERY HEART OF this camp. destined

Copper Syndicate. contiguous on two sides to the
best mines of the Arizona Copper Co., and ON
third to the Great Western. Tho reports " N.
two mining engineers who have ,Namincl tho
Syndicate properties state that " tho ores are %
the same character as to copper, sl\ or ana
gold, as we'll as to tho fu1es contained in the ur,s
as those of the best mines of the Arizona
Copper Co., which they a1juin. All the sur.

they can be worked. render them a desirable,

The outcrop from tho Humboldt's cnor.
nous vein Ia plainly traced from there
to the Syndicate's "Outlet" mine; and
when IT is remembered that the engineers re-.
ports state that the character OF the ores IN the
two properties is identical. the enormous Nalns
of the syndicate's mines will be Immediately
recognized.
The estimates of profits from tho Syndicate mines

much prospect of it's reduction to that tgure no
OF the American dollar falling TO a parity with
the Spanish peso. Yet even on that basis these
mines. with the proposed Cotton snIclter in active
operation. will yield a profit of over $500. 900
annually.
The purpose of this issue of stock Ia to ac.
quire certain additional valuable ground in this
district. which can be worked to great advantage
in connection with these mines. and which at the
present time can be purchased on terms requir.
ing only a very small cash outlay, but the dlrcc.
