Mining in the Northwest.

When a prospector is rewarded by
finding a mineral bearing ledge, what
should he do with il? Too often his
first impulse is to offer it for sale at an
exorbitant price which he cannot OBJ
tain, and there is then presented to
him the serious question Of developing
his property.
In some instances good results may
have been obtained from the sale of
treasury stock, but yast majority of
such schemes that have been floated
during the past tea year. have ended
in failures; they we're worked to death
sooner or later the public fail, to re-
spond to the sc,licitati ,a> Of the pro-
meters. The impractical management
then goes to work with what little
money it has, but can accomplish
nothing owing to lack of funds.
Then the corporation becomes suuffed
out of existence aud few purchasers
of the stock are in frame of mind to
call mining .mble.
The owner of a prospect can readily
find buyer if he will take what bis

get for it. Or lie can bond it for a
small cash payment and large sum

The Mohave Mines.

Mohave, the banner chloriding coun
ty of Arizona, is attracting great deal
of attention in the mining world. No
where in the territory is there better
inducements for investment. Its past
history as mineral producer attests
to its present merits. 1t has practic.
ally been the poor mans paradise, and
no other county in the territory pre-
sents greater area of undeveloped
mining ground.
The Cerbat range contains many
properties that have produced for.
tunes and yet the amount OF develop.
ment is hardly discernable. Mineral
Park, Stockton Hill and Chloride were
famous before Bisbee, Jerome, Con-
gress, Globe or Clifton were known on
the map. Chloride is now the center
of Enterprise in the county, since the
camp has been connected by rail with
the continental system.
The principal mines now equipped
with mining machinery are the Elk
hart, Tennessee, Minnesota and Mollie
Gibson, all producing valuable ores.
There are many other mines in the dis
trict shipping pay ore
The Prince George in Stockton Hill,
the Eureka in Cerbat and the c. o. D..
are now in the hands of capitalists,
who are spending great deal of money
putting them in shape for the neces
sary machinery. These mines iuclud-
ing the Nighthawk and Orc Plata have
made many poor prospecror wealthy,
and yet depth of only 400 feet has
been obtained on any of them.
The river range Is the scene Of con.
siderable activity since the discovery
of Gold Road and the sale of the Lovin
property. This mine was discovered
last summer aud was sold for 50.OO05
on simply surface showing and Is now
being opened mp as rapidly as possible.
Another section of Mohave county
hitherto unknown to the mining world
Is that lying north of the Colorado
river on the Nevada and Utah borders,
copper, iron, asbestos and salt abound
over vast extent Of territory, await.

tation facilities. Ore of the richest
kind is being extracted and shipped to

About Self-Made Men.

The fact of the humble origin of the
class known as trust magnates is made
manifest by the short biographs which
the North American Review for the
present month prints of the men who
contributed to the symposium of arti.
cles concerning industrial aud railroad
consultations in that mum Der of the
magazine.
Mr.. Russell Sage was born iD Oneida
county, New York, nearly eighty five
years ago, and his biography begins
with the almost stereotyped phrase in
the lives Of the successful men of
America. "He W brought up on a
farm and went to school in the winter
months"
James j. Hill, the president of the
Great Northern railroad, was born in
upper Canada in 1888. In his 18th year
be became a clerk in steam boat office
in st. Paul and remained in that oc.
cupation for nine years.
Charles NJ. Schwab is native Of the
village Of Loretto, Pa, where he was
born in 1862. As lad he drove a stage
from Loretto to the adjoining town of
Cresson. Later he was occupied as a
stage driver at dollar day in an
engineering corps.
F. B. Thurber, president of the
United States Expert association, was
born on farm in Delaware county,
New York, In 1872. He went to New
York City when Is years old and began
his business career as boy in an i'm
portant house at dollar week.

the United States Envelope company
is the son of poor Scotch parents, who
came to this country from Glasgow,
his birthplace, when he was but a few

Suppose that one hundred competent
men we're asked to design independent
ly, vertical, triple expansion, conden'
sing, pumping engine having piston
valves for high pressure and inferno
date cylinders, with slide valve or
valves for low.pressure cylinder; TO
take steam from boiler space in which
pressure of 100 pounds is maintained;
indicted steam to contain 10 per cent.
of its weight of water; condenser pres
sure pounds per square inch; piston

tions per minute to be 30; useful work
to be 1000 horse power; efficiency of
engine to be not less thar 50 per cent;
steam, per indicated horsepower per
hour not to exceed II pounds.
How many of the engines designed
would exactly meet the specifications?
How nearly would they look alike
how nearly weigh alike-how nearly
cost alike, if all were constructed by
the same builder-how nearly work
alike? Their proportions and their
weights would differ Some would
reach the required economy at one
speed, some at another. Reaching the
economy of steam consumption specifi
ed some would fail in the stipulated
efficiency of the engine. Each would
be law unto itself, bat, in advance of
trial, the law could not be precisely
stated. The engines would no more be
alike than a hundred different men
selected from their general resem-
blance 10 each other--Leicester Allen,
in The Engineering Magazine for June.

The Training of Workman.

Nearly all trades and handicrafts
have been invaded by machinery, some
in vastly greater degree than others.
Work which was deemed beyond the
capacity of machines but few years
since is now regularly done by them,
and the best craftsmen to day ia many
Industries are those who execute re.
pairs. Those facts are enough to dis.
count the value of long apprentices
ship now. But more remains to be
said.
Apprenticeship under the old guilds
was an intensely personal relation.
But the relations between employers
and factory hands to day are imper.
sonal. An apprentice now is only so
in name, mum bered unit Who puts in
his cheqne with other numbers. He is
not taught trade. He must pick il
up for himself 1t is nobody's bust
ness to instruct him, neither his mas.
ter's, nor his foreman's, nor the work.
mems. In some of the smaller shops
in country towns traces of the old re.
lations still remain, but they are be.
coming more aud more exceptional.
1t is generally to the interest of an
employer that an apprentice should
not learn bis trade as whole, but
only little section of it. 1t pays bet.
ter to keep lad repeating the per-
Torrance of one section Of his craft
than to teach him all, More money is
made. But the apprentice becomes a
young specialist over some little piece
of handicraft, which he may earn
something over his normal wages.
And many lad does not become dis
illusioned until he has to face the
world and try his luck in other shops.
And, therefore, the best shops in which
to place lad are not the big establish
ments, but the small ones, where every
class of work is done, and the tools and
appliances are often scant. A lad will
learn more in these than in those re.
plete with every appliance, and min
utely subdivided into sections and
groups.
The best training for lad to-day is
that which he can evolve for him self.
The greatest evil that CA befall him is
to become a specialist, ana nothing
more while in his teens. Yet that is
what must happen if he spend, several
years tending machines, or doing re.
petitive, unvarying tasks in one big
establishment
The best training, therefore, To day
Is that gathered by the peripatetic
youth. If lad cannot gain experience
in one place he should move about,
gathering as much as he can accumu-
late with one firm, then on to another,
and attending training schools as
opportunity offers. His views become
broadened, he becomes self reliant,
and, In time, having found his true
work, he may settle dewn as specia-
list.-Joseph Horner, in Casters
Magazine for June.

AT Copperopolis, Cal, the novel ex.
pertinent has been achieved in making
water drained from a deep level mine
pay the cost If pumping. Through he
decline in the price of copper years
ago, resulting particularly from the
importation of Chilean copper, the
CopperopOlis mines in 1881 were closed.
In 10 0 an option was secured on the
property and steps taken to unwater
the workings, some 600 feet below the
surface. The pumps have been going
since October, aud the bottom is not
yet drained, but the water drawn out
was so heavily charged with copper
that at the very outset plans we're
made to save the metal. Into a string
of sluices the drainage is discharged.
These sluices are filed with old scrap
iron, over which the water flows aud
deposits its metal contents. The wa.
ter has parted with all the copper held
in solution when it leaves the sluices,
aud the metal takes the place of the
iron. The copper obtained this way
pays all the expenses of the pumping.

British and American Ore Transport.

1t is an absolute fact, such is Ameri-
cas- advance in the movement of traffic
on railroads, that it does not cost the
Carnegie Co. more to take their ore
from Lake Erie to Pittsburg, a dis
lance of more than $50 miles, than it
does in Wales to take the ore the short
distance of little over 20 miles. The
powerful Carnegie engines of l27 .tons'
weight take from the Lake port to
Pittsburg thirty wagons carrying 30
tons each of ore, 1900 tons at one time;
the tare of these 50-ton trucks is only
10 tons each, the total dead weight be-
ing 2.l0O tons. If this 1900 tons was
required to be sent, say from Newport
to the Blaenavon or Ebbw Vale Works,
it would require one hundred and fifty
trucks, the tare of each being 5 tons.
The engines employed could not take
right through to works more than $50
tons each of ore in fifteen lotion trucks,
so that it would require ten engines
and thirty men, with dead weight of
ore, trucks, aud engines of about 300
tons, to do the conveyance of the 100
tons, which is done in America with
one engine and three men only. This
is the kind of thing that goes on (more
or less) to ensure dispatch and guam.

to the mill in America.-E. Philips, in
