FINANCIAL.
OFFICE OF THE
Geo. A. TreaiWpIl Minins CompanN


To My Friends Again:
some time ago | advised you to sci
your Greene Consolidated stock. which
was then quoted at $50 a share. and
puy George A. Treadwell company
stock ut $3.50 II share, thus getting foul
snares of the q. A. T. stock for one
of the Greene
Since then the Greene has gone down
ana the G. a. r. stock has gone up.
Many of you accepted my advice and
nave profited by the transaction.
sun think Ii is for your interest
to sell Greene stock and buy Tread
Well for the following reasons:
l. Ihe Green company Is capitalized
at six million dollars. the Treadwell
company at only three millions. Other
thinss being equal, therefore, one share
of the Treadwell Is equal to two shares
of the Greene.
2 The property of the Treadwell
company is at least the equivalent in
area. and in the probable extent of it's
ore bodies. of the Greene property.
J. The ores of the Verde Copper Belt
where the Treadwell company mines
are situated, have nearly or quite
twice the percentage of copper that the
ores of the Cananeas-where the
Greene property lies--have. The Verde
Belt ores average about ten per cent
copper and the Cananea ores about five
per cent
4. The ores Of the Cananeas have low
and those of the Verde Belt high values
in gold and silver with low priced
copper this consideration is of the
utmost Importance.
.. The Verde District has a very
great advantage over the Cananea dis
trict in it's accessibility it's compara-
tive nearness to market and it's cheap
er freight rates.
6. The Verde district has whatever
further advantage results to 1t from
being in the United States and under
the jurisdiction of the Stars and
Stripes.
I. The Greene Consolidated company
mas a more extensive and expensive
equipment than that of the Treadwell
company-althoug that of the Tread
well company is by no means small
and is being rapidly increased-but it
has also large Indebtedness incurred
in procuring this equipment. The
Treadwell company is free from debt
and pays it's way as it goes. | would
rather have a smaller equipment than
owe so much for a larger one.
8. All things considered | believe the
stock of the George A. Treadwell Min
ing company is safer and better in
Nestment than any other mining stock
open to the investing public.
1t is because | think so that the COM
pany bears my name.

ENGLISH GIRLS FOOT.
From the New York Mail and Express.

From the New York Mail aud Express.
sprightly controversy has been GO
ing on for some time In the English
newspapers relative to the somewh hat
intimate subject of the young English
Woinans foot, or rather, her shoes
The modern English girl is tall-tall in
sense and TO a degree that the Glib
son cartoons of the stately American
girl do not even adumbrate. In the
aristocratic set, more often than not,
she towers over the heads of foreign
gentlemen. Long generations of de-
scent from tall fathers and mothers
and vigorous years of outdoor exercise
have made her what she is--very occa-
sionally Il siX-footer and with hands
and feet in due proportion.
The note of alarm has at last been
sounded. 1t is held that the daugh-
ters of Anak" are exercising too freely.
II they would wear the dainty shoes
that are women's traditional adorn-
ment. While the answer is made that
the apparent size of the English girls
foot is due to her sensible preference
for loose, easy shoes, ii Is admittedly
an incomplete explanation. One rea-
son for the growing popularity of the
American shoe in London is that it
looks neater and trimmer and decided
ly smallsr than the English shoe of the
same size.
But another reason is that the Ameri-
can woman resident in London cannot
find an English shoe small enough to
lit her foot. One shopper relates in a
London paper that the smallest sizes
she could lind IN Regent street store
were skies. The exhibition of royal
relics recently opened at the new gall
lery furnishes interesting testimony
that a generous understanding is no
mere development of the modern Anna
zonian spirit. The boots worn by
Queen Elizabeth as princess, preserved
I'm the collection, are Almost as capa-
cious as the slippers worn by George
~. at his coronation.

AN UNDERGROUND RIVER.
What Biologists Declare Is Under.
meath the Copper City.
From the Anaconda Standard.


During the development of the new
| coal discoveries north of Anaconda
| Mont, some months ago indications
were found that tended to prove that
| Anaconda is located over a huge un-
! derground river that is moving at u
| fast rate. A number of local geologists
and other interested citizens endeay-
| ored to find out if there is anything in
the suppostion, and it is said that the
| result of a number of experiments has
shown almost conclusively that such
is the case.
1t was also announced by the orig
inal discoverer of the subterranean
river that below the water is a great
body of coal, large enough to supply
the United States for years to come. A
few of the theories advanced are inter-
estlng. Coal discoveries have been
made on the mountains surrounding
the city. The coal formations in all
instances are said to be the same.
showing that they are but branches of
some main body.
In regard to the subterranean river
more proofs are given. At various
times wells have been dug east and
west of the city which filled so rapidly
that they overflowed. The number of
springs near the city and the two ex-
tinct geysers some miles east of Ana
conda are included in the list of items
proving the underground river. In
number of places on the mountains
south of the city stream of water
may be started by simply poking a
stick into the ground
Silver Lake has no known inlet or
outlet, and yet at certain seasons of
the year the surface of the lake is more
depressed than at other times. Last
summer number of oyster shells We're
found by worlmen excavating on the
hill back of the court house, and so it
goes. The theory is by no means a
new one in Anaconda. 1t originated
some months ago among those who
have investigated it, and the strange
supposition has never been lost sight
OF. Especially when the wise ones
have little to do are their thoughts
given to the watery bottom of the
Copper City.
