COPPER GLANCE

Some very favorable news has come from this property during the past week. Early in the week there were rumors out that ore had been encount- cred, but no news could be obtained from the company until a investiga- tion was made by one of the officers. and we learn from him also from ou- own personal investigation, that in the cross cut. in the drift some leached ore had been struck, about a foot ir width. which lays on the hanging side Of the porpbyry. IL is the red oxide Of iron, containing oxide of copper, the first of its kind that has been found upon this property, and the whole de posit averages a little better than four per cent in copper. This is the best news that has come from the Glance, for the copper deposits of this dis

LEAD EXISTS
 IN THIS DISTRICT

 IN PAYING QUANTITIES
Located About Srx Miles From 6istee Southeast-is Being Worked by a Force of Five Men.

One Of the many properties that is
 being systematically developed is the Wallupa group, consisting of five claims and belonging to F. E. John ston, E. V. Johnston, 4 H. Pinyon and .C. NJ. Johnston. A force of men have been employed since January 1st and about 150 feet of work has been done consisting of a shaft 40 feet deep. A drift on the vein 35 feet, 2 tunnel to tap the shaft i5 feet, and a winze which later may be used as a shaft down now a distance of e5 feet. This work is all done on one claim. There lis the regular amount of assessment work on each claim, beside shaft Ii feet deep on one of the claims. There lis a very peculiar circumstance about this shaft which can only be accounted for in one way-that there exists an underground chamber or cavern, or else it has been formerly worked. and all the old work has caved. The latter theory would seem to be the best, as the ore is a heavy lead. In sinking this shaft, the pressure of air from
 below was so great that candle would be extinguished. On the other hand. a cavern may exist as the for nation is just such as will admit or its existence, being a blue and white lime mixed with quartz. this being the
 same formation of the Grand Central
 mine at Tintic, Utah. where the great cave existed and tons of beautiful stalactites were taken out The Grand Central cave carried a very high Head carbonate and bromide Of silver, and the cavern was underlaid with

No old timer in Bisbee but knows Tom Higgins, and even the new com CTS associate his name in connection with the camp of Bishee.
 MT. Higgins is Bisbee's pioneer, and the only man living in Bisbee today who was c resident in 1879, the date of his arrival here. At that time the camp was known as Mule Pass Springs and had only five inhabitants besides himself. These were J. F. Duncan, now of Tombstone; Chas. Vincent, now in California; Bill Ninniger, Chas. Auchutz and Joe Dyer, the last three, Mr. Higgins has lost trace of, but they were his companions and neighbors. The country around was over-ruo with Apache Indians and the camp was on the line of the trail of a band of Mexican sriuggiers that piled between Sonora and Casa Grande, then the nearest railroad point No law but honesty recoa- nized in those days. Every man was his own protector and his own arsenal. Might was the recognized authority and banding together for protec- tion against the Indians was the con mon means of defense The camp was near the food gate
 The Twilight claim was located 5y Mir. Higgins in 1880 and the rest Of the group at subsequent times, but by his determination he kept the assess .ment work performed and added nine more claims until the group Of ten which now comprise the ground Of the Higgins Development company was se- cured. The last claim was locste4 ten years ago. The first location Of the Copper Queen ground was made in 1875. At ths time l located the Twilight" said MT Higgins.

of the present Copper Queen corpora ton. They were bought from George Kline and Charley Auchutz by Ballard and Martin for 5000. Ore had been struck where the open cut now is, and was taken out in large quantities.
 T have had and still hold many other claims in the camp but have al ways pinned my faith to the Twilight group, because of its accessibility to the town, being only one mile from the postofice, and its formation, being a cavernous limestone. Copper has been discovered all over the group, which goes to prove its value as min ing property.
 The porpbyTy dykes which run through the ground are conclusive ev- idence of its stability, this mingled with the quartzite which shows in many places has been enough in my mind, 10 make it 9 valuable property.
 The work already performed on the Twilight Group consists of shafts, Jun .nels and open cuts. The longest tun- nel is 200 feet in and shows ore.
 Yes, l have seen men grow rich in Bisbee and all the properties de yeloped, and l believe the camp is only in it's swaddling clothes. Many new discoveries are being made and nvw energy added. There IS plenty here for all in legitimate mining but not enough in the whole camp for wild eating
 The Twilight group was recently sold to the Higgins Development com pany for $600, 600 one sixth of which has been already paid. Mir. Hig'
 is stockholder in the corporation showing his faith in the property. The other heavy owners are J. H. Rice Jas. R. Dee and Norman W. Hair, all Of Houghton, Michigan; Nathan l.. Le opold and Brother of Chicago, and M J Cunningham, Of this city. Be sides these there are a large number of stockholders in Michigan, Minneso ta, Illinois and Pennsylvania.

W. l.. Kearney, Park City, Utah, mining operator is looking over War ren Mining district. He is the orig inal discoyerer of ore at Goose creek near that famous silver camp and was for years in the employ of the Ontario mine, the greatest producer of white metal in the world
 Speaking of Park City and its con ditions, Mr. Kearney said: "The old silver camp is taking on its old time activity. When silver was down to 47 cents and lead at s3.60 per ton. Some of the mines reduced their out put very materially" Now the ad- vance again of silver to 54 cents and lead to $4.20 has made the wheels to revolve and the work of production to go merrily on. When you take into consideration that cent per ounce in the price of silver makes a difference in a month of over s3,000 in the out put you can conceive some idea Of the amounts of silver produced. Our big mines, such as the Silver King Daly-West-Ontario, Daly-Judge, An chor and Quincy are employing three full forces.
 Yes! the Silver King is great property. It is computed by mining men thsI this property can produce it's present output and pay it's regular dividends for 100 years to come, SC great are it's ore reserves. Of course you know the Ontario was the greatest producer of silver the world has eveI seen. Over s29,O00. 900 has been ta ken out from which s16,0o0. 900 has been paid in dividends. The Ontario drain tunnel is five miles long ana there are 15,000 gallons of water pel minute coming from it which is Parl City's water supply. The Daly-Wes is a heavy producer and while compar atively new is a heavy dividend pay CT. Park City will be Q camp wheI many of the camps of today will bt forgotten. It is not poo r man't camp, as no ore. to speak of was en countered above the 600 level" The values are in lead. silver and a smal per centage of gold. Silver, however predominates.

THE TRICKY BRAIN CELL.
what Happens when We Knew .
Name which Escapes Us.

The anatomy OF the nervous system.
and consequently its physiology. was
regarded In the past as very simple.
Cayal showed that the specific brain
cell Is an Independent unit provided
with multiple processes. by means OF
which II Is capable Of acting not
through one nerve alone. but several.
This independent brain unit or cell Is
called a neuron. A simple Illustration
OF how the neuron works Is furnished
by our not lnfrequent hunt for a name
or an idea which We know we possess.
We feel that the name Is there. but we
cannot recall II. We get various names
near II, beginning even with the same
letter or the same vowel sound, yet
only after minutes or even hours does
II actually occur 10 us
What is supposed 10 happen is that
the particular cell Of intellectlon which
we are using throws out It's process
among the cells OF memory for names.
and though this process is brought in
connection with cells containing sim.
ilar names, IL Is only after a more or
less prolonged search that II hits on the
right one. IL Is as II the telephone op-
orator In the central office felt around

only after putting the plug into various
