Bisbee daily review., 1903-11-05

warner, a brother and sister of the alderman. Not in thirty-four years had Mir. Warner been east of the Mis- sCuri River, go he decided to visit the old home and his aged mother. now in the eighties. Fearing that he would be run over hv the street cars or oth- erwise injured, the representative of the Second ward prudently wired a friend from Kansas City 10 meet him o1 arrival of the train at Chicago. Mir. Warner having left there just year previous to the great Chicago fire. By doing this he was enabled to escape the gold brick, three shell. bogus min ister, and other smooth gentlemen who await just such hombres as set out for the East, and arrived in Min peapolis safely. where he found his old mother well and hearty.
 Spending a short time with the oId lady, now eighty years of age. and who made the hearty alderman tired with her walking him to church, his natural inclinations led him of into them ming country of Duluth, and of the copper districts of Michigan. MT. warner found many things Of inter- est there in mining; for instance, speaking of finding copper near the surface. what would the anxious peo- pie of Bisbee think who expect to find bodies of ore at the 200. 300, 500, SOU and 1000 feet levels. when two shafts visited are down, one of them 6,100 feet, and another S.100 feet, or over a mile and half. The Calumet and Hecla. the largest of Michigan mines. treats ores, the average hign- est values of which are two and eight tenths per cent copper. The lowest values treated are those of the Allan ta mine, whose product averages but six-teatts of 1 per cent while one mine pays s dividend on treating ere whose copper value does nct exceed eight-tenths of one per cent. he capacities Of the works in Michigan at the mines are on prodigious scale. For instance, the pumps at Tomb stone are considered of immense ca racity. They lift 1.S00,000 gallons per day, and are saiC to have ca pacity of 2,500,00O gallons in twenty four hours. What is thought oi pumps at Calumet which hoist 60.gVO gallons per minute, or 3.6000 900 gal Ions per hour or 86.40O 900 gallons in 24 hours? That makes one stop and think
 wenty-three thousand tons of ore are treated every twenty-four hours at the Calumet district They have a stamp also that puts a period in as you go along. This stamp cIushes out FIVE HUNDRED TONS a gay, something that is wonderful when YOU step 10 think of it. They also have a wire mill there. and when the pig Of copper comes from the mill, quick CT than it takes to tell it. it is run
 lrcGgh the rolls and drawn into trol- ley wire and fine copper strands for making cables. Nearly all of the work is cone by automatic machinery the absence Of men about the plant being most noticeable. Steamers come 10 the docks loaded with tn ee thousand tons of coal and over, and the entire cargo is discharged in eight hours, a1t tL" ..ts---,r --.-a .oG-5, with a return cargo Of copper pToaua- ton, all within twenty-four hours.
 MT. Warner states that the eyes oi Michigan are upon Bisbee. and great expectations are anticipated in lne copper production of the Warren Min ing district. MT. Warner returns much recuperated from his extensive tIip and ready to take up the reins where he left them six weeks ago, greatly be: efiyed in health. and the picture of having enjoyed himself ir ne efTete East. He also says that he is glad to get back 10 old Bis5ee which he will not leave again until he gees back to Y1si; his mother on hei oce hun Iredth birthday.
