BLACK WARRIOR MINE
An Early Start and Heavy Produc-
 tion Anticipated.

James A. Fleming, a former Colorado man, and now president of the Black Warrior Copper company, amalgamat- cd, of Globe. Ariz, left Phoenix last night for Philadelphia to attend a meeting of the board of directors of the company. He stated that the big Black Warrior mine will begin opera tions in about thirty days when about 300 tons of ore will be treated daily. The plants consist of a teacher of l25 tons capacity, a smelter. a refinery and an acid plant On account of the va ried character of the ores several methods of treatment are required.
 The Black Warrior promises to be one of the greatest copper producers of Arizona. The formation and ores are similar to those found at Morenci, where the Arizona Copper company and other large corporations are op- erating. Cheapness of production by the teaching plant Is an important feature. Since development com menced two years ago, more than sl,500,000 of ore has been blocked out, which will net in the neighborhood of Sl ,0C0, 900 70 the owners. Difficulty has been encountered in the arrangement of the eaching plant. resulting in the adoption of an entirely new method of teaching carbonate ores. Large bodies Of sulphides also have been blocked out. and these ores will be run through the shelter. The ores carry an aver age of II per cent copper, and the cost of treatment will amount to about 6 cents a pound. The acid plant will be used for the manufa ture of sulphuric acid. to be used in the teaching plant and to be shipped out. It is expected that a constant revenue will be de- rived from the by-products.
 While in the east Mir. Fleming will make an effort to arrange for a years supply of coal. Machinery is all in place. and satisfactory tests have been made, so that the company is now only waiting upon a fuel supply to Hake the start. MT Fleming Is the

TO practice in lavish manner the beautiful
and kindly art of social entertaining. 1t Is
said. indeed. that Mr.. Yeatman's Willingness
to submit to the surgical operation which.
ii was hoped would save his life was large
" due to the hope that he would thereby
again be able to see more Of his many
friends. something which he had been una
BILE to do in his later years.
The old Yeatman country home. near St
Louis, Belmont. as he christened II, was
long a center of social activities. 1t was
established by Mr.. Yeatman when he came
first from Nashville. Tenn. his birthplace,
and WAS SO beautiful as to become one OF
the sights shown to visitors in this city.
Among its features was a series of hang
ing gardens originated by Mr.. Yeatman
and modelled on those he had seen as
Identifying features of private estates
where he had been a guest while sojourntng
abroad. A sequence of successive terraced
declivities in the natural topography Of the
ground at Belmont made these gardens pos
sible. 1t was here. also. that Mr.. Yeat-
mans cultivated appreciation OF statuary
was best shown. the lawns of Belmont be-
ing transformed into something like open
air art galleries in their exhibit of the best
sculpture. 1t is said of Mr. Yeatman that
he could never resist the temptation to
buy any production of the sculptor's chisel
which appealed to his fancy. There were
also at Belmont a number OF conservator-
les in which numerous canaries had been
set at liberty.

IT was here that Mr. Yeatman was most
greta1y distinguished as host. and II was
at Belmont. also, that his first wife died.
For time thereafter his children lived at
Belmont. under the charge of a goyerness
and the place is described by them as hav-
ing been a perfect Eden. There were three
children by his first marriage. James A.,
Charles Pope and Angelica Charlotte Yeat-
man, the latter now being Mrs Alfred Carr
and the two former deceased Mr.. Yeat-
mans second wife was Miss Cynthia Pope.
who. dying within a few years, left him
again wfdower, young man still. with
one son by this second marriage. It was
Mrs. Yeatman's dying wish that their son,
Nathaniel P. Yeatmap. should be given to
the care Of her eldest sister. Mrs Beverly
Allen, and Mr.. Yeatman, feeling that he
could not be separated from his son, ar
ranged to combine the two households. Mrs.
Allen preferring to remain at her own home,
Thus Mr.. Yeatman consented to leave Bel
mont his old home and added an elaborate
addition to the home then occupied by Mrs.
Beverly Allen. one of the rooms 50x25, con-
tanning the library of 10000 volumes be-
Queathed by Mr.. Yeatman to Washington
University after Mrs. Aliens death. Here.
also, Mr.. Yeatman enjoyed entertaining his
friends until the war brought its changes.
Mrs. Aliens family consists-of three daugh-
tiers and one son. also her mother. and Mr..
Yeatman's consisted of three sons and one
daughter. and his first wife's father, Colonel

alarm of the worst order. and was finally
sold to Joseph Hayes as a saddle horse. Sir
Rola proved a fine handicap horse, and
was a great favorite with the racing par
ties formed regularly to see him run In the
Maffitt colors.
Mr.. McCreery was an enthusiast on tho
subject of billiards. and his interest in this
game was almost strong his love for
music. In the spring of 1899 he went to
New York and entered the amateur billiard
tourney of America, playing against Null
lins. Foss and other well-known billiardists
He won his first match and great hopes
of his success were entertained by his
friends in St Louis. but subsequent events
ended in defeat for him. Undaunted. he re-
turned in the spring Of 1900. but was
again defeated for the championship.
Nearly ten years ago, In company with
Harry Walker. secretary Of the Odeon at
present and II. II. Darby. his musical in
structor, he organized the Forest Park
Cricket Club and inaugurated what was
probably the first series OF tho game
played here. Many well-known professional
men of tho city Joined the club. and the
games have become a regular feature OF
late years.
It is in connection with singing and mu-
sic. however. that Wayman McCreery was
hest known In st. Louis. He was for moro
than twenty years a member Of the choir
OF CnuTCn SdIneOrdl, dItQ II Wa0
largely through his efforts that the body
was Kept together at one stage OF the
church's history.
The cathedral suffered eoms viciss1tudes
in 1878 or theseabsuts. heavy expenses lsaH-
ing nothing for the choir. Wayman Nc
Creery determined that the standard OF mu-
sic in the church should be kept up, and
1 busted himself collecting volunteers In
| side of n week. and with no intefmiseion
| of musical services. he had collected one OF
| the best amateur choirs in the city, and one
which served until the finances Of the
! cathedral permitted the institution OF
| surpliced choir.
Among the singers whom he secured at
| that time were Frank Ridgely. the present
| Park Commissioner: c. Bent Carr. now In
| the real estate business; George Doane. .
| well-known tenor at that time. and Miss
( Frances Xavier McCabe. who was one OF
7, the leading amateur sopranos OF the city.
| The organ of Christ Church was in the
| rear of the nave, on the Thirteenth street
| side of the building. The choir was placed
| in gallery behind the congregation, In
stead of in the chancel as at present, and
many old members of the church assert that
! the singing of Wayman McCreery could al.
ways be distinguished. although he was not
visible, his voice having so much power
and penetration.
| Since that time he always sang In the
| church choir. and was one Of the main
stays of the body. He was great friend OF
| the organst. Fl. Fl. Darby. and took lessons
\ from him for many years. Mr.. Darby mates
| that the fiexibiity of Mr. McCreery'0 voice
| was no less remarkable than is sweetnesa.

even to the last hours of his life The
friends who went to see him in his last III
ness were always his first consideration.
When they had an easy chair and a good
cigar the sick man. though suffering excru-
ciatng pains. would settle down to let them
talk to him. y
In his well,a and happy days he was the life

and amateur theatrical clubs, as we'll as

but because the others Recognized his lead
ership in good-feliowship, good counsel and
the jollities with which the evenings were
passed.
The arrival OF new musical light, or
any other celebrity in the many directions
in which he was at home. was always the
signal for one of these famous stag parties
at his house..to which not one of his invited
guests ever refused to come. In fact. his
friends always hailed with delight the COM
ing to the gales of St. Louis OF any stranger
who could possibly interest Mr.. McCreery.
because the latter was sure to bid them
gather for his entertainment.
AL! musical compositions by st. Leuisans
had their first HEARING al his house. and
all ;he musical lights were invited to pass
their opinion. As d member of the Hatton

So much has been written of the late
James E. Yeatrnan of ST. Loui- as a philan-
thropist whose kindness towards the
worlds luckiess ones led him to expenG
his time energies and fortune in relieving
their necessities that it should be interest
ing TO consider another phase of his char
scter-that which made him peculiarly rep
resentative of the type Of o1d-fashioned
Southern aristocrat and man of the world
now well nigh extinct.
There has never lived in ST, Louis more
genial entertainer than was Mr.. Yeatman.
He was. indeed extrava CANT to a degree in
his social life keenly relshing the delights
OF society and Of generous and hospitahie
existence. 1nheriting wealth. which he in
creased in the course of his own career as
banker. Mr. Yeatmsn spent money like
water in maintaining his high place in the
carly society of st. Louis For years no
social event in this city was complete or
marked with the proper stamp of distinc-
ton unless Mr.. ycatnian were present. It
sounds strange now to be told that this
stately ahd-venerable gentleman of the old
school wa renowned as making the most
delicious Of Ehampag fie punches. upon which
he greatly prided himself the recipe for the
punch being a family inheritance He was
also cultivated judge OF the legitimate
delights OF the table. his dinners being IA
nous for their excellence and exquisite
taste in arrangement and serving.
1t was natural that ,Mr Yeatman should
have been man; Of this type Well born
and wealthy from his boyhood, he was
trained al man OF the world. A liberal
educationin this country was completed by
several years social experience in Europe
at a time. when but few Americans went
abroad His personal advantages also tend
