PRESIDENT HILL HERE.
Conjectured Purpose of His Visit to
the City.

Mr.. j. J. Hill, president Of the Great
Northern railroad. is at the Arlington. His
visit to Washington is supposed to be in
connection with the fight now going on
between the rival railroad and steamship
interests for the control Of the government
business across the Pacific to the Philip
pine Islands.
Mr.. Hill declined to discuss the question
today. 1t Is understood that he is DESTROYS
of having the government business on the
Pacific transferred from San Francisco to
Seattle, which would prove Of inestimabe
value as a feeder to the railroads Mr.. Hill
is interested in. The San Francisco cham
Der of commerce has already taken steps
to retain the business for that city.

 fifteen ftoDs Of ore that have a good showing of glance and would give from seven to ten per cent copper. a good
 proportion of this ore could be classed as shipable. If this were taken as the point on which to push development IL would be a simple matter to constrdct an overhead cable tramway to the Tombstone road, some 5000 feet dis.

 top of the divide to within a hundred yards of the road. from which point further transportation would be simple.
 There are two other shafts, one twenty five feet and one fourteen feet deep. with 9 ty-three-foot tunnel LedgeS and shingles of ore of varying widths bisect the claims in all directions, the course of the main Assures being south

 the claims patented, but both these moves may be made in the near future.

In Burro canyon, lying northeriy from Dixie canyon just over the divide, an6 about three miles in an air line from Bisbee lie ten claims known as the Lone Star group. owned by J. G. Pritchard. J. E. Evans, J. c. Callag- han, L. R. Brown and Ralph Ingram, says the Bisbee Review. The main shaft is that of the Gunsight mine. from which in early Tombstone days S3O,OOO worth of silver ore was taken. When the slump in silver took place the mine was abandoned and since has not been worked until the present own CTS took hold. This shaft is now about 120 feet deep, with two side drifts, each about forty feet in length. An eigh- tCen-inCh vein of silver and copper ore, also carrying lead and some gold, can clearly be traced down the side. and is plainly in evidence in the bottom. An assay from a sample taken from this vein gave S209 in values, but the aver age run of the claims through and through would probably give about S40 to the ton. One surface cut on the

 Some have estimated that but a small weight of radium would furnish light for economic purposes so brilliant that the human eye and body would have to be protected from it's influence. Once In place, however, it would be installed for all time. And there are scientists who argue that if it has retained these tremendous properties from the very beginning of its creation, its powers will know no decrease with the ages. Thus far only the most preliminary steps have been made toward the dis covery oe the properties of radium. A already stated the field for speculation seems boundless.

CASTLE CREEK DISTRICT
Fort Henry and Other Promising
 Copper Properties.

J. Hermann Aagaard, who has been esting hinself very practically in the development of mines in the Castle Creek district He located and pal- italy developed the Fort Henry group of claims and after satisfying himself that he had proposition capital could be interested in he organized the Fort Henry Mining and Exploration com pany, of which he is president. Most Of the gentlemen interested are Cali fornians, the secretary of the company being Roy Hinman of Los Angeles. D. w. Belden and others of this city are also among the stockholders.
 The Fort Henry group is about ten miles northwest of Hot Springs and three miles from Briggs. A good road has been built from Wickenburg to the Buckhorn mine and it will be extended at once by the Fort Henry company to it's camp at BuzZard's Roost, thus bringing it within seventeen miles of the railroad at WicSenburg. The prop erty is copper and gold and the devel- oDment work is being done on two prin- cipaI leads, one being a big iron dike on which there is now a fifteen-foot shaft, the ore assaying from $l to S14 in gold and carrying d good percentage of copper. On the other lead there Is a thirty-foot tunnel with several open cuts on the ledge. The ledge shows a rich pay streak of copper glance run ming from 45 to 90 per cent. The com pany proposes at an early day to em- ploy a good force of men in opening up the property.
 Mir Aagaard also has another group of claims adjoining which bears the vigorous title of the J. J. Jeffries group. This is his own private property. and he is sanguine also that he will make god mine of it. He has q 25-foot shaft on this vein showing in the bot tom two and a hal, foot ledge of black oxides and carbonates, the two formations lying parallel. An average sample of the lege shows in the carbon ates values of 45.4 per cent copper and in the oxides 32.3 copper and some gold. The same ledge is also found to crop on the other side of the mountain, a good indication that the ore deposit is continuous and probably larger with depth.
 MT. AaCaard is an experienced miner, having been connected with some of the largest mining enterprises in the lead ing Colorado camps, and while not over enthusiastic he believes there is a great future for the Castle Creek district.
