The ERA is pleased to acknowledge
the receipt of an invita- ton to attend
the ceremonies of the laying of the
corner stone for Il new academy build
ing at Thatcher, in this county, March
18th. The laying of the corner stone
of this new building marks an import
ant epoch in the educational interests
in this section. The people of Thatcher
deserve much credit for their enter
prise and success in educational mat
tiers. Good schools and all educational
institutions are the key stones to the
great arch of free and democratic gov
eminent. Without them our system
of go eminent could not long survive.
The communities which are first to
avail themselves of educational insti-
buttons of the higher grade, are always
the most desirable in which to reside,
and as a general propos ition the most
prosperous. The ERA doffs its SOM
brero to the people of Thatcher.

copper materially for some time to

will probably have to close his smelter
owing to an Injunction by the Amalga

said that owing 10 the closing of the

One of the most important mining
deals in this district in many years
was cousumm tted last week, whereby
the General Electric company of New
York secure control of vast estate of
rich mineral lands. in the neigh bor-
hood of Metcalf in this district. 1t is
well known in mining circles that for
at least .hree years the General Flee
tric people have been searching for
copper mines. d. NJ. Riordan, who is
a1d VINO - ys5=A-5id t1iiie Gcomst5ck
miner, and a man OF wide experience
in mining. has personally examined all
copper properties offered to the public
covering radias of territory from
Canada to interior OF Mexico. Dur
ing all of this time, and throughout
his wanderings, Mr.. Riordan has been
accompanied by from three To five ex-
perts. 10 their search ior copper the
company has expended a vast sum OF
money. Many good and most desirable
properties were found and exported,
but still the search continued, for a
company with the financial backing of
the General Electric could not be salts
fed with anything less than the very
best. 1t w&s their desire to buy we'll
developed properties, but that was
found to be almost an impossibility, as
they were not for sale at any price.
1t was therefore necessary for them to
secure only partially developed prop
erty with a sufficient showing of miu-
eral to justify the expe nditure OF a
large sum Of money in opening up the
property. erecting plants, etc.
The attention of the General Elec-
tric company was called to this prop
erty by Col. p. r. Smith, and first re-
ported on by him, which was the basis
of The deal. His report was sustained
throushot by the rigid examinations
which followed. Mr.. Riordan came here
early last spring. aud spent some weeks
on the ground with his experts. and

The new smelling plant for the Ari-
zona Copper Company will have IA ca
pacity of 200 tons per day. Its capac-
ity will be greater than now required,
allowance having been made for the
probable increase in jhe future. The
building will be of Heel construction
throughout and Ere proof. The old
smelling plant, which has capacity
of 800 tons. will be torn out and the
new one located on the same ground.
1t is expected that the change can be
made and the new plant in operation
in about five weeks. The new concen-
TRAITOR now being er cted by the same
company at Lbngfellow will have a ca
pacity of 200 tons. 1t is expected that
the production of the company will be
at the rate of $4,000 tons OF copper per
annum after the Improvements now
under way have been completed. The
output of the company Tor last year was
10 2S6.1s) pounds Bessimer copper.
The production of blue stone for the
same period was I.64l .224 pounds.
equivalent 10 about 4l0.306 pounds OF
copper. The blue stone is worth on an
average of more than five cents per
pound in New York. The bulk of the
blue stone prouuced by the company is
shipped to the silver mines of Mexico,
but shipments are also made direct TO
foreign 'untries. a considerable
amount of sulphuric acid is also pro-
duced as bi-prod :ct.

that the Indian government is pledged

THEORY OF MURDER.
Treatment Of Animals an Index in the
Criminal Instinct.

Treatment Of Animals an Index in the
Criminal Instinct.
According to an inEenius ~statisti-
clan who has been at work on the sub
ject ever since the assassination of
King Humbert Of Italy, the greatest
number of murders is likely to be COM
mitted in that country in which ami
mails are treated with the most cruelty.
He claims too that comparatively few
murders are comitted in those coun-
tries in which societies for the protec-
ton of animals flourish. Out Of every
million inhabitants, he says, there are
in England and Ireland only six muir
derers; in Germany, II; in Belgium,
IA; In France 16: in Austria, %; in
Hungary, 81; in Spain, SO, and in
Italy, IS. These figures, he maintains,
are just what might be expected. In
no country, he says, are animals
treated with more kindness than in
Great Britain and with more cruelty
than in Italy, and the treatment ac-
corded to them in the other countries
may fairly be gagged according to the
number of murders committed in each.
At the same time this statistician, who
IL a German. and an influential mem
Der of the Berlin Society for the Pro-
lection of Animals, admits that climate
1s q considerable factor in this matter.

Woman's Rishts in England.

English women appear to have gone
daft on conventions. Gatherings for
every conceivable purpose are being
held continually and every woman who
aspires to social position is a delegate
to some of these conventional mat
ters little to her, apparently, which
one, so long as she is a delegate. In
June last the English women attended
two conventions at the same time in
London, studying politics at the an
nual session Of the Women's Liberal
Federation and then rushing to dis
cussions at the worlds temperance
conference. Scarcely were these over
before she hastened by fast express Urn
to Edinburgh to the Worlds Women's
Christian Temperance Union. Other
conventions followed in rapid SUCCESS
sion up to the present time.

A NEW SYSTEM.
Pushing the Scheme for Our Paeln,
Cable.

a-H ..L. HT".r Nt4010A =EFfaL. .a.-.
New that the election. is over and
the country has settled down once more
to prosperous industry ASSOCIATED
from nightmares, it Is altogether. like
ly, remarks the Electrical World and
Engineer, that the Pacific cable will be
pushed in Congress. We trust that its
friends will be numerous and energetic.
The details published as to the latest
soundings are such as to afford great
encouragement as to overcoming the
physical difficulties of the task, while
the political state of affairs and the
rapid development of trade with the Tar
east promise an abundant tratnc for
the new system. BY the time the new
cable is ready it will find an American
network awaiting connection both in
the Hawaiian Islands and in the
Philippines. We count upon seeing
this cable made in America gutta
percha cable-and on the use Of
American ships and men to lay it; but
meantime the prayer may be devoutly
breathed for better luck than has at
tended previous American submarine
efforts, the sad details OF which we will
not here recapitulate. Let us in this
work go to school humbly to our Brit
ish friends, who have girdled the globe
with cable, and then, having learned
the lesson, we shall be ready to teach
them in turn-some time in the next
century.
