HIS HIGH MIGHTINESS.

It must be refreshing intelligence for Christendom to learn that his majesty the unsp, akablc Turk, has to be called upon for the right to relieve water famine in Jerusalem. He has been graciously pleased to grant permission to tht municipality of the holy city to bring water from the pools of Solomon through iron pipes into the city along the line of Solomon's stone aqueduct.
 It would have thrilled some of those doughty old warriors who went to death in the crusades if some prophet had announced that in 1901, the follow CTS of the cross could not g5t the title deeds to the Holy Land where the Savior lived and taught and died.
 It is d matter of history that some years ago an effort was made by sUmo wealthy Germans to buy certain spots in Jerusalem made specially sacred by the Savior's life. but the unspeakable Turk natly refused to dispose of the hillside where the crucifXion Is be- lieved by the best schC.ars to have taken place.

SURVEY THROUGH TOMBSTONE
Outlet for the Coming Cochise County
 Ore Products,

Two railroads are running lines of survey through Tombstone and Gleeson to tap mineral belt which will soon come to the front with producers. Of this the Prospector says:
 Tombstone is about to have another this direction adds to the theory that both the $. P. company and the Ari- Zona Southwestern have designs on Tombstone and this section. The s. p. company already have two surveys which include Tombstone on their route. The Phelps Dodge company have one and will run another line be- ginning in few days. which will in- clude Tombstone and Gleeson on the maps. Chief Surveyor Wakulewicz and staff have arranged to start survey for the Phelps Dodge company, begin ming at Fairbank to Tombstone and Gleeson, thence east to connect with their Southwestern line. The survey party are expected to begin from Fair bank within the next four or five days. Surveyor Box and assistants have been making reconnaissance of the route, lsarning of the general natural feat ures to be overcome, etc, and Colone! Wakuewicz was in this vicinity a few days since on the same mission. The resolve of the Southwestern company to run a line from Fairbank this way would. if constructed, give Tombstone direct eastern and western outlet. One survey of the company contem- tempated making Tombstone a termi- nus.

COPPER IN ARIZONA
Development of the Red Metal in
 Graham County.

w. T. Webb of Pima send this in toresting communication to the BuIlc- tin:
 Copper today is one of the most sta ble and satisfactory investments in the great financial centers of the world. The increasing demand of the cleo trical trade has steadily advanced the pri,e of the red metal and although the operators of all the great mines of the world are straining every nerve and fibre to increase the output, still is the visible stock of copper slowly yet steadily decreasing and the d. mand is crowding the supply entirely too closely for the comfort of the consumers.
 Only a few years ago in the minds of the people of the world Arizona was associated with two things only: Indians and silver; but in recent years 1t has leaped to the front as a producer of copper, and while it yet ranks third among the states, with Michigan and Montana in the lead, its increase over last years production was thirty-seven per cent, while Michican's increase
 in the same time was less than ten per cent. and Montana's returns show an actual loss of seven and one-half per cent with the improvements going on at the established plants and the constant developments of new and valuable properties 1t is only a ques- tion of few years when Arizona will lead the world as a copper producer.
 In none of the older states are any new developments of valuable prop critics being made, for the reason, doubtless, that such states haze beer thoroughly prOspected in the past, while development of the mineral wealth of Arizona is only in its infancy and every passing year adds one or more valuable mines to her long list of producers.
 AIOng the new properties which promise much from the amount of de- velopment work done, is a claim known as the Little Johnny" located In the Tripp and Underwood canyon about eighteen miles west of Pima. This claim was first located in 1900 by Frank Mulkins and Dick Hood, and was shortly after purchased by w. T. Webb, s. s. Marshall and others. As required by law a 10-foot shaft was sunk upon the ledge, and after strip

TO ERECT LEACHING PLANT
Important Ore Sarikes at Head of
 Pinto Creek.

George P. Andrews management of the affairs of the Pima Copper com pany is so satisfactory to the officers in the east that they have prevailed Jos Bandhauer is Mir. Andrews as- slstant at the Black Copper mine. where work is being pushed with vigor. and the mine workings are assuming better shape. The Silver Belt says a large body of fine ere is bsing opened and will increase the output considerably. For some time past Prof. w. B. Potter of St. Louis has been making tests with the ores from the Pinal companys claims, to determine the best method of reduction. and upon his report and advice the company has decided upon a leaching plant to be erected and ready to operate by the fl st Cf next year. On the western claims of the group there are hun dreds of thousands of tons of ore car rying from four to six per cent of cop per, which can be successfully treated by the process of teaching to be em- plOyed, This process, which is said to have been fully demonstrated possesses the essential advantage of CheapneSs over the methods of leach ing gen rally in vogue in Arizona. as sulphuric acid is not an ingredient of the bath. It is not unlikely that the company will erect plant of sufficient capacity to treat custom ores, which hn af o1 nta tn mine owners in that part of Globe dis trict where there are vast deposits of ores suitable for teaching.
 There is something of q mining ex- citement around the head of Pinto creek, caused by big strikes of sul- phiG5 ore on the claims ownsd by Pas qual Nigro and Joe Gacio, and the Cross mine under bond to Gibson, Gibson & Beck. From all accounts Nigro & Gacio have the greatest show ing of ore on any prospect in the Globe district. They have the lead opened up for length of seventy five feet in a long tunnel. at a depth of about 250 feet; and the ore body by actual measurement is over forty-one inches wide and averages thirty-two psr cent copper. 1'hirty-seven tons of org were shipped to Fl Paso, which
 went very close to those figures. The owners have received propositions to
 bond the claims, but hold them at a stiff price. demanding s25,0 900 down, we are told. Gibson, Gibson X Bee on an adjoining claim have a showing that promises to equal that of the Italians. They made a shipment last week. R. J. Williams and Frank Westbrook own six claims in the immediate vicinity and control four other claims bonded from Tom Reynolds. Westbrook is looking after the developms mt of these claims and has uncovered fine ore on
 several of them. There Is d very active

ping away the surface soil and sink ing below the level of the dsintegrated country rock some rich specimens of copper ore were found which rapidly improved as they got further away from the corrosive action of the elerents. The shaft is now down to a depth of about forty feet and while 'the owners now know something defi- nite about the top of the ledge, it win take extensive sinking. drifting and cross cutting to determine either bottom or sides. In attempting to trace the course of the vein on the surface, it Is puzzling at first to de- termine Its bearing, as the vein varies from forty to 100 feet. or perhaps even more in p.aces.
 In appearance the ore is a lime feldspar, probably plagiocIase, car rying the green carbonate and red oxide of copper with some red oxide of iron. At glance the experienced metallurgist will see that this ore is self huXing and therefore needs only the furnace to extract it's precious metals.
 In the distance the dump from the shaft presents a light green tint from carbonate of copper which impreg mates the rock.
 It Is the intention of the owners to continue sinking indefinitely, or at least to the permanent water-leve! in order to establish the continuance and quality of the ore body. The owners feel assured that at a depth of a | few hundred feet the richest of sul- phide ores will be encountered. Steps are now being taken, in fact St. Louis capitalists are now here looking the ground over with a view 10 erecting a water jacket furnace for the treatment of these ores,

It is not generally known that since its discovery in 1902. St. Helena has been destined to be a state prison. In 1911 the Portuguese banished a noble man, named Fernando Lopez, to this island. Later on the East India com pany sent a rajah to be interned there, but he died on the voyage; then came the memorable exile of Napoleon, which brought St. Helena into promin- ent notice, and recently, when the question arose what should be done with the Boer prisoners of war, St. Helena naturally suggested itself as the safest and most suitable place,
