HIGH-PRICED COPPER.
Its Effect on the Shares Of Copper
Mines.
Boston News Bureau)

Mr.. y. L. Amster. mining engineer,
says of the copper market: The con-
dition OF the copper metal market war
rants today better prices for the shares
of the producing copper mines than it
did in the height of the boom in 1899.
In 1899, We were just entering a.
period OF comparatively high prices for
copper. II was an experiment, and few
people believed that the advance could
hold. There was talk of enormous in
crease of production and a decrease in
demand a result of the high level.
But We have had almost two years Of
stable prices, so that what was really
an experiment has now become an es-
Jablished condition. There has been
very little increase in production and
certainly no decrease in the demand.
THAT the ruling price for copper the
past two years has not been artificial
IS proven by the fact that with a Il
supply today is less than half what it
cents.
Il have had some Of the largest man.
ufacturers tell me that they would
much rather have a stable Is cent mar
ket than a mark 2 flUctuating between
9 and Is cents. The fluctuations Of past
years were due to the unOrganized con-
ditiOn of the copper industry Today
the copper producing interests are I'M
der control, and practically agreed as
to the selling price Of the metal, which
is proving not only beneficial TO them

CHLORIDE POINT MILL TO CLOSE
The Miners Working on Second-Class
Ore Laid OF Yesterday.

The management of the Chloride
Point company yesterday paid off and
discharged all miners that were en-
gagged in mining milling ores, retaining
on the pay rolls only those who are
working on high-grade shipping ma
tertal, an encouraging body of which
seems TO be opening out on the third
level When the bins at the mill are
empty the mill will therefore be closed
down for the winter.
This action was taken because the
treatment of SecOnd-grade ores has not
heretofore proven profitable during the
winter months, and for the further rea-
son that it is the purpose of the COM
pany to Teorganize its affairs during the
coming winter and perfect an extern
stVe system of development in the mine.
1t is therefore more than probable that
the force just laid off will be more than
made UP in the number of men put on
prospecting work in the near future.

ANOTHER MILL FOR BINGHAM.
The Butterfeld Company Will Erect
a Thirty-Ton Plant.
bingham Bulletin.)


Manager George w. Keel of the But
terrified Mining company says he has
placed an order for mill machinery. A
site is to be prepared without unneces-
sary delay, and ne hopes to have the
mill ready to run by Jan. 1. 1t is to
be a concentration of about thirty tons
capacity, and viii run this winter on
ore from 300 level of Eagle Bird mine
and above Eagle Bird ore is a very
fine concentrating proposition and
there is a large area showing in the
300. A 150-ton lot was hauled over the
divide and treated at Rogers mill with
excellent results.
As stated in our former article, Queen
tunnel taps Eagle Bird vein at 500 feet
depth Butterfeld tunnel, when ex-
tended about 165 feet further, will cut
1t at an actual depth of over 1900 feet
on the dip. The output of Eagle Bird
and other veins wiz then be treated at
concentration WORKS to be built at
mouth Of the Butterfield. And it may
be inferred that all the great reduc-
ton plants that may come to Bingham

ON THE EIGHT-HoUR LAW.
Question of Its Application to Con-
contractor Employee5 Answered.

Question of Its Application to Con-
contractor Employees Answered.
A Park City subscriber writes to ask
''if it is lawful 10 work more than
eight hours in a concentration, or
whether the law covers that character
of vsork?'' It is evidently not lawful
TO work over eight hours at such en-
ployment and the employee and en-
ployer are both equally guilty of 2 mis-
demeanor where such work is per-
formed and permitted.
The question is fully covered by sec
ton 1887 of the revised statutes of
1898, the law having been passed by
the legislature in 1896 and later incOr-
porated as a part OF the statutes of
the year named. The cOnstitutiOnality
of the law was affirmatively decided in
the test case of the state VS.. Holden.
II reads as follows:
The period of employment for work

God SO loved the world that b.
gave his Only begotten Son. He cares
as much for you as for any soul on
earth" said Malcolm gently.
Philip was silent after that during
the rest of the drive He lay with his
eyes closed, and Malcolm did not think
Vt wise to talk any more to him, but a
continual prayer went out of his heart
for another sheep gone astray.
When they drove up to the house at
The Forks Mrs. Barton came run
ming out. She helped Malcolm lift
Philip into the house, and as the boy
was being lowered upon bed he
reached up his arms and put them
about his mothers neck The poor
woman sank on her knees and with her
face buried on the breast of her boy
sobbed out her hearts JOY at his home
coming. When Kirk was ready to TO
turn TO Conrad, She held his hand, re-
luctant to have him go.
Heaven bless you, Mr.. Kirk. owe
YOU more than | can tell. The fire
carried off our grain stacks in the field
out there. and we lost several of our
sheds. but would gladly go out into
the world beggar if Phil would o@y
turn to God and give up the drink.
And you and Mrs. Kirk have your

Bear We one another's burdens -
quoted Malcolm and added instantly,
Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and
he shall sustain thee So he left
her standing there, looking after him,
comforted.
He Went back to Conrad and faced
the situation there With a courageous
heart and an outward cheerfulness for
Dorothy's sake more than anything
else There was no attempt on the
part of eithF:. of them to Disguise the
fact that the prospect before them was
one that would try all their Christian
courage and faith. The winter was
coming on. the crops had been almost
a total failure owing to the hot winds,
and the little boom of which Wilson
had spoken in his letter had collapsed,
leaving the town in wrecked condi-
ton financially. The fields that had
been planted to corn stood dry and
hard. unfit for fall blowing. and even
the storm that broke over the town
that night was only local and had no
farreaching result on the general situa-
ton.

spects a terrible condition that faced

o'clock and frosty night. Down the
main street she could see the lightsI
from the saloons. There was a brawlS
going on in front of one of them, butts
that was commoli-a group of cow
boys galloping down the street, firing,
their pistols as they came. That was
not unusual Dorothy shuddered.
What Of that promise she had made
with Malcolm to try to redeem the lost
of Conrad? Was it worth while. after
all? 1t would be so much pleasanter
to live in Boston. They could have
things and live as other people lived,
and after awhile her husband would
become famous, and
"Well. little woman, won't you take
cold out here?"
1t was Malcolm. and he led her into
the house again. She had not seen
him come He had unexpectedly fin
ished his engagement and been able to
return much sooner than he expected.
She saw as he came in that he was
very tired. but was making brave eff
fort to appear cheerful and contented.
She hesitated about showing him the
letters, but he had already seen the
open envelopes on the table. and his
hand went out toward them. Dorothy
stood between him and the table.
"Will you read them in the order
say?" asked Dorothy.
Certainly Must get ready for
bad news?' he asked soberly.
1T is for you to say" Dorothy an
swered. And she gave him the letters
in the same order that she had opened
them and stood watching his face
hungrily as he read them.
