VmicultIre.

Thanks to Dr. GaltOn's studies, we know how much chi Idren inherit from each of their ancestors and it is theo- retically possible to calculate how much increasing the productiveness of the better individuals would improve the race. Thus, if those who are well endowed and Dr. Cation believes that it is possible to discover differ ences in efficiency early in life-were enabled to marry young and were placed in favorable conditions, the eff. ciency of the race would be increa ed by an amount that can be calculated. A Utopia such as pr, Cation plans is not easy to carry into effect, but it is well to realize what enormous conse- quences would follow were this possi- bic under existing conditions of law aud sentiment" - Popular Science Monthly.

The United Verde.

Although about two hundred men have been laid of at the United Verde mine within the past three weeks, the incident has no particular significance nor is it in any way connected with shutdown of the property to reduce the output of the worlds markets, as vaguely hinted at in various papers throughout the country, says the Jer- ome Mining News. It is customary at the end of the year to reduce the working force to some extent while the plant is being overhauled and needed repairs made, and the laying off of men can be construed as emn- ating from the above cause. On CT about the 27th of this month the en- tire plant will be closed down for sev- eral days to admit of general clean up and repairs, and it is more than probable that much larger force than was laid off will he put on when it is started up. A new furnace is being added to the present plant, and it is not likely that Senator Clark would be extending the capacity of the plant if he had in contemplation any intention to reduce the production.

Cost for Stoping.

A miner gives tabulated method for calculating the cost per ton for stoping ore in ordinary ground. Taking as a basis the thickness of the pay streak at the point considered, as follows {: Where the ore streak is inches thick, the cost of stopping per ton, sl7.33; where inches thick, Sl1 5 per ton 8 inches, 6.67; 10 inches, s6. 93; l2 inches s5 7S; II inches, s49j. It would seem q difficult matter to prepare table which would show the approximate cost of stopping which would have gen eral application, for the reason that the rocks enclosing the veins may be hard or soft, and many other condi- lions, always differing, may obtain, which have an important bearing on the subject, N. & E.

Wireless telegraphy may mean much to science and progress" said the woman, "but it will play havoc with the delights of sea voyaging. The chief charm of ocean-going to the ra- tional human being is the getting away from everything the peace passing all understanding that emenates from the Knowledge that no telegramS nor telephones nor mails can interrupt nor perturb you. Wireless telegraphy will change all that.

John Gleesan's Big Clean.Up.

John Gleeson has sold out his inter est in the Copper Belle company, at Gleeson, and resigned the superinten- dency of the company. It is reported that John cleans up about half mill. ion dollars on the deal, which news will delight his friends as much as it does him. John Gleeson has had plenty of hard luck, and this is the third stroke of good luck he has had in the past fifteen years. The first of his good luck was when he sold mine at Hach- ita for sl5,o00, aud his second good luck followed this closely, it was his marriage, and this third one fixes him for life, financially. He located the Copper Belle properties four or five years ago, developed them enough to interest capital in them, money was invested, more development done, and for some time the company has been shipping a thousand tons of ore a month. When he had placed the busi- ness on firm foundation he felt will ing to retire, and 80 closed out his in- terest and resigned the office of super. intendent. He has some other good prospects, hid out in the hills and prob. ably will do little scientific and sec ond-hand development on them. Sec ond-hand development consists in sitting on the dump and watching the other fellow hit the drill. .-Lordsburg 1 ahnrnl

Shape of the Earth.

The exact shape of the earth is a question which cannot be settled with. out fresh evidence from the antarctic. For this purpose two at least of the expeditions have been provided with pendulum outfits by noting the ex. act length of time occupied by the swing of pendulum the distance ot the place of observation from the earth's center can be determined. II is held that the south polar regions project further from the plane of the equator than does the north polar re glon; according to one estimate the south pole is slightly more than one hundredth further from the earth, center than the north pole. -Populal Science Monthly.

 All the new enterprises are continu- ing their development work on copper mines, with no visible disturbance be. cause of the tumble in the price of the red metal. There are several new com nanies that have headquarters at Cliff ion. The Shannon Copper company & one l; the Clifton Consolidated is an

RARE MINERAL STRIKE.
MolYbdenum Found in Considerable Quantity b.
 the Jerome Canyon Copper Company.

Molybdenum Found in Considerable Quantity b
 the Jerome Canyon Copper Compsny.
 J. $. Smith, superintendent of the newly-inoorported Jerome Canyon Copper company, was in town during the week, says the Jerome Mining News, bringing with him -eeera fl specimens of molybdenite or molybd. mum, of which Mir. smith save that a considerable quantity has been en- countered in 35-foot shaft which the company is sinking. In fact, he says 1t ia in sufficient quantity to be mar ketable, and as the pure metal is worth something like $2 a pound, if the ore holds out, the company can consider that they have struck it rich.
 It is not known what percentage of the gray and valuable metal is con- tained in the ores, as the assay returns have not been received, but from the piece which was brought into the News office it looks as if 1t would go very high.
 Several strikes of this valuable and rare metal have been made heretofore in the mining districts of inc country, but it is doubtful if in as great quan- tity as Mir. Smith claims to have found in the property operated by his com pany.
 Molybdenite, or molybdeuum as it is better known, is rare and valuable metal, and was first discovered in l7s2 by the metallurgist Hjelm. It is dis. tributed through the crystalline rocks, and at times is found in considerable quantity. It is sulphide of lead, its composition being-sulphur, Il 0 mo lybdenum, 59 0-lOO In color it is a lead gray and leaves a gray trace on paper. lt has peculiar metallic Jus ter and is very soft. Its market value Is S4,OOO per ton, with good demand, especially in London.
