 ABOUT A MINING PROPERTY
Personnel of the Directors-A Review Representative Goes On the Ground

The world is replete with surprises. When you glide over the railroad from Don Luis to Douglas. you pass the prettiest little vista in Southern Ari- zona. and you are told that the camps up against the hill is the Copper Glance mining camp. That much is true. You pass the matter up as one of those wildcat speculations, which are too numerous in Arizona; that conclusion is not true. A big block of solid copper glance on exhibition in Bisbee led me to investigate.
 went to the scene of operations, where I found a solid block of twenty four claims, approximately, 4S0 acres. just seven miles southeast of Bisbee, situated as picturesquely as park. AS I approached the camp, l ran across an S0-foot shaft, where the mesa be- gins to join hands with the Bald mountain. It has a respectable show ing from ten feet below the collar to the bottom. This is only suggestion of what is to come. Here l meet Superintendent C. O Warner. Charley, as you learn to call him; doesn't wear leggings nor "Oye glasses" nor cor duroy. He dresses like anybody else and smokes cob pipe. His people have a great thing and are not ashamed of it. He bids you welcome without shuddering. then turns you over to che tender mercies of Uncle John Connolly, who knows every rock and every jack rabbit track in the great Warren district. having performed per petually in that identical locality for more than nine years.
 MT. Connolly means well. but he does not seem to realize that he Is sliding over shaparTal and boulders and crags like a mountain goat. while the breath less tenderfoot pants behind him in the vain endeavor to keep in sight. He wastes no time on the beautiful stretch of mesa below, where a city and parks and boulevards and Teduc- tions works could be realized with little expense. He pays no attention to the big quartz porphyIy ledge on the east side of the property, where the company are sinking primarily for water and incidentally to cut the big 2o0-foot pure silicate ledge, with an elegant chance to strike paying gold proposition He is after something greater. In the center of this ideal zone an abrupt and symetrical eleva- tion arises to the height of 400 feet above the sunny slope below, crowned with an imposing cap of porphyritic quartz. a hundred feet in height and SO precipitous that it is a paradise for the weary vulture and the nesting eagle. Its rugged face is red and blue and green and black, where the different forms of the king of metals appear in every crevice. on every pro lection. or weather-beaten surface, caves and cavities and Assures appear on every hand when the percolating waters from above or the metal laden grasses from below have left stalacites and phantastic shape masses Of green copper attached to the walls and cell ing. Jagged boulders, great and small which have fallen like scales from the sides of this mineral monster are lodged on the mountain side, or lie in indiscriminate confusion at it's feet and Uncle Jack Connolly will blindfoid you. give you a pick, start you up the hill. and wager you even money tna' every time you strike rock with youi toe YOU may break it and it will TUT from 4 to 25 per cent copper. and you will ge broke if you take him up Such a surface proposition cannot DO duplicated on the coast; copper 1T iron. copper in quartz. copper ln DOT phyry, copper in spar. copper in every thing you come to.
