MISS RIPLEY'S IDEA.
It's aims as defined by the constitution are TO
promote the welfare of the public schools to cult
spirit of sympathy and goodwill among the
teachers. to improve the character of the work
done in the schools. to develop the abilities ana
resources of individual members and to create in
the community at large deeper sense OF the dig
nifty OF the teachers profession and the mporta
of the interests which they represent"
1t in furtherance OF these aims that the idea
of the chapter house was first promulgated by Miss
Mary Ripley, a woman of marked executive ability.
She urged that the purchase, care and maintenance
of such home would prove stimulus to all mem

GOOD FOR LOW GRADERS
W. L. George Claims to Have Invented
 Valuable Roasting Furnace

William Lord George claims to have invented a roasting furnace which he claims will be a great boon to the owners of low grade mines. The ore is first crushed to sufficient fineness, say three-quarter inch mesh and in the furnace it is brought to red heat for a short time by use of wood, coke, coal or charcoal.
 The first object of the heating is at tained when the volatile components, carbonic acid, sulphur, arsenic. arti- mony, etc, have been practically ex- pelled, with the reduction of the metals, as gold, silver and copper to a metallic state in small grains or glob- ules. This is to be accomplished in about thirty minutes after the ore is put in the furnace.
 After the ore is thoroughly roasted it is prepared for wet concentration in the usual manner or for teaching

Iordsburq District Boomino

The deveiopment work being done in the Lordsburg district in New Mex ico is well directed and while there is little publicity being made, all the owners of properties are fast increas- ing their possibilities as producers. many of whom are ready at the pres ent time to ship or considering the aG- visibility of arranging for the treat ment of their products individually. This district is so near the great pro- ducing districts of Arizona that only an imaginary line separates them, and at no distant day this will be one of the great producing districts of the southwest.-El Paso News.
 The first oil in the territory has been found near Florence. The first oil was found at 600 feet, and since that time 100 feet have been drilled. Three stratas of sand have been pass ed through, each bearing oil. The quality of oil struck is rich. being of the paraffine variety, which is the richest that can be found. It is sub ject to refining and produces lubricat- ing ois of the best grade. It also produces Illuminating oil. The Par affine company has been drilling sev- eral months, and at one time had to suspend operations. The directors had confidence in the field, and have kept at work until success has crowned their efforts.-Jerome Reporter.

cananea Output Increasing

The production of bullion from the smelters of the Cananea Copper com pany at La Calanea, Mex. for the month of October is 5000,000 pounds. which is far ahead Of any previous month in the history of the company's operations. The management expects to do much better than this in the month of November, as in October unfortunately there has been several break downs, and shortage of fuel. for this reason the smelter has been closed down two days of the past week, this. however, is due to the fact that available freight equipment is at this season being used in the grain and cotton trade.-El Paso News

Rich Strike in the White Tanks

A rich strike has been discovered in the White Tank mountains, near the Miser Chest mine. by Henry A. and Elliott Stewart. The vein starts at six inches in width, and at a depth of 15 feet attained a width of 13 inches. The ore will run from $50 to $1OO a ton, and is increasing in value as depth is attained. Elliott is in town purchasing ore sacks and supplies, while his brother is at the mine build ing roads and getting things in shape to work the mine. There will, no doubt. be some rich strikes made in the White Tank mountains when the right depth is reached, as the lodges in this section will undoubtedly go News.
