piece of mining ground, and its pres
 ent rating has been greatly enhanced
 in the mining world and particularly y
 so since being operated under the
 present management.
 Under the superintendency of r.
 A. Johns, vast amount of practical Il
 mining work has been given it. Over
 500 feet of new shafts have been
 driven down in new ground and oyer
 2,000 feet of new levels have been
 run. Two new hoists have been
 placed on two new working shafts, the old ten-stamp mill has been re-
 paired and improved with modern appliances, and new pumping plant has been placed in position. In building accommodations the company has also erected many sub stantial houses, which is significant that the camp is regarded as one to be permanently considered. The spirit behind the operation of this mine is certainly to be commended and the extent of the work shown, together with the general under ground character of development, along with the value therein. relieves the property of any alarm and places it in the future ol our mining industry as one to be rated promi- nently at the head.
 There is probably no mining en- terprise in Yavapai county that is more admirably located than the Henrietta for the economical and practical handling of its product. It has railroad that trayerses its loca- tion ground, an abundant supply of water for all purposes the year round, and smelter within four miles of its mill to handle and treat its rebellious ores. In addition to this it is in the center of a zone that has old and | mines under operation, and | which are are yielding proftably. | There are nine full claims in the | group. and laying as these interests 10 in one of the oldest mining dis 5ricts of Arizona and incidentally a section of the country that is thrifty | n work and actractive as a center of | for capital, there seems 70 be no doubt whatever that this will be heavy producer when development work is given it ,n the plans outlined, and which are now being carried out.

CONCERNING THE
 POLAND MINE
WHERE ONE OF THE GREATEST MFR ING PROJEClS IN THE WEST IS UNDER HEADWkY.
How the Property IS Spoken of by One Whose Knowledge IS Rated as
 Authoritative

A late issue of the Mining and En gineerlng Journal of New York has a special contribution on the Poland mine near Prescott and the gigantic work of the Poland-Hamilton tunnel, now under headway. We condense from the report as follows:
 The Big Bug mining district lies sixteen miles southeast of the town of Prescott, Arizona, in group of mountains, the highest points of which are Mount Union and Mount Davidson, the former being 5000 feet above sea level. On the slopes of these peaks are the beginnings of the Agua Fria river, Big Bug creek, Lynx creek and the Hassayampa river.
 The formations of the district are massive granite, hornblendic granite and diorite, which are cut by many small quartz Assure veins, quartz porphyry and porphyritic granite kikes and bands. all. about parallell ing each other or running at small angles, and having an approximate strike of north and south.
 The Poland mine, the largest of the district, is on Big Bug creek, two miles northeast of the summit of Mount Union. Its salient features are large we'll developed property, a crosscut tunnel to connect Big Bug creek and Lynx creek, and its imme- diate connection with the Prescott & Eastern railway.
 The mine has been opened by tun nels, raises, winzes and shafts amounting to 6,l40 feet exclusive of it's crosscut tunnel. The vein lies in granitoid diorite on the south and passes into a granite on the north and is cut by small quartz porphyry dike about midway of the mine. The naturalization consists of the sul phide of iron, zinc blende, galena, bornite and chalcopyrite, carrying gold and silver values.
 The Poland-Lynx creek crosscut tunnel cuts the Poland vein 700 feet from its mouth, and at an angle of 75 degrees, and opens the mine at a point 615 feet below the highest point of the outcrop, The tunnel is projected to connect Big Bug and Lynx creeks, and when completed will be 5000 feet long. Of this dis tance, 2,370 feet have been run. It enters the mountain on the Big Bug side at 6,230 feet above sea level. will run 5000 feet on a one per cent grade and 2,OOO feet on 3 per cent grade. Twelve veins on the company's property will be opened at from 600 to 800 feet below their outcrops. The tunnel which is s by 10 feet in the clear, is being driven from both ends by Sullivan 31 and Ingersoll- -Sar- geant B drills, and California Pow der Works 40 per cent gelatin pow der is used for breaking the ground Compressed air is furnished by a Rand compressor on the Lynx Creek side and a Leyner two-stage com pressor on the Big Bug side. The best progress that has been made thus far on either side in a heading is 200 feet per month.
 A 20-stamp mill furnished by the Allis-Chalmers company was put in commission March l.

She possesses the power of choosing
which Of her offspring shall be drones
and which workers. Some have
thought that this was automatic and
that the narrower worker cell touched
the button, so to speak, that brought
forth a fortified egg. But the queen
will lay worker eggs in drone cells If
she thinks fit so that settles that.
If the drone is male and the queen
female, what is the worker? The new
woman of Beedom. She has given up
her motherhood for a business career.
Sometimes, though, she lays eggs, but
they always hatch out drOnes, of which
1t is strictly true to say they have q
mother, but no father. If the queens
wings are crippled so that she cannot
make her marriage fight, her children
are all drones. An italian queen in
q hive of black bees will beget W k
ers of mixed blood, but her sons arc
pure Italians. Drones are useful as
fathers ef workers, but they cannot col
lcct the honey they eat. Their tongues
are too short.-Ainslee's.

OF the many thousands of bodies OF
soldiers who are buried In Arlington
cemetery there is but one, and that ar
officer, whose remains were not inclos
ed in a coffin. The late General NJ. c.
Meigs during the civil war and fol-
many years subsequently was quarter
master general of the United States
army. Some years before his death be
had erected at Arlington large gran
lite tomb. By his direction the sculptor
cut a place n the center of the big
stone exactly the size of the formers
body. The sculptor was pledged to
secrecy, nor did the general inform any
one of the fact.
When General Meigs died, his body
was incased in a handsome casket and
conveyed to the cemetery. When, how
ever, an attempt was made to put the
casket in the sarcophagus, it was
found to be impossible, and the under
taker had to remove the body from the
casket and put it in the sarcophagus
with no other covering than the gener.
ais uniform. -Washington Post.
