MINES AND MINING
Interesting Notes on Mining Nat
teFs From all Over the Southwest

Electricity generated by water power
may be the means of restoring Vir-
ginia City to something like its old
time grandeur. Electricity generated
30 miles away has been turned on in
the shaft Of the consolidated California
and Virginia, and the great pumps
which are to clear the Comstock lode
Of water down to the lowest depths
are at work The great machines will
run without cessation until all the ac-
cumulated water is discharged. The
abandoned drifts which have been sub
merged more than six years will again
be accessible to miners. 1t is ex-
pected that an extensive body of ore
will be reached at the lower depths.
Harvey and Wall are taking out ore
on the Arizona. Mr.. Harvey has re-
Gently returned from Clifton where he
has been employed
The Stanley mill is running day and
night now upon ore from the Pinos
Altos Gold Mining properties. c. f.
Derbyshire is experimenting the run.
The old reduction plant Of the Dem
ing Mining & Milling company has
been sold to parties who expect to be-
gin improvements on It at once and
it will soon be in operation again.
j. A. Mccoy was in from the Tres
Hermanos district the latter part Of
last week, ordering supplies for his
mining work. He reports everything
progressing nicely in that district and
says there will be much development
work done there this summer.
w. C. Chandler has resumed opera
tions on the Mountain Key mine and is
at present taking out water from the
shaft. Richard Trevarrow has return
ed to the camp and has taken a posi-
tion lat the Mountain Key. Mr.. Chand-
Ter says it is his intention u work the
mine, both in developing and taking
out ore.
Concerning the copper market, the
Engineering and Mining Journal says.
Copper continues to rise, and the
price has already gone somewhat be-
yond anticipations. Demand continues
very good indeed, ard while some home
purchasers have been holdidg back q
little expecting a reaction, foreign
customers are buying largely. I'M
doubtedly the March returns will more
than Offset the comparatively light ex-
ports of the opening months of the
year. Consumption continues on an
enormous scale, and late purchasers
find it difficult TO secure metal for the
deliveries they want.

VILLAGE Trustees.

Yesterdays election passed off with.
out excitement of any kind, and the
old board Of trustees were all reelected
with the exception of A. Beals who
moved sway some time ago, and his
place was filed by the election Of J.
W. Hannigan. The vote was not large,
there being no opposition to any of the
candidates.

administration buildings, some where
near the little city Of Deming, where
they can have their own depot, on the
railroad, and such other improvements
as may be necessary for the initial
work and then gradually extend toward
the foothills, improving and beautify-
ing the grounds, erecting cottages and
providing tents for all who come. Hos
pital cars will be provided to bring pa
tients from other parts Of the union,
which will be in charge Of physicians
and nurses from their homes in the
various cities Of the United States to
their destination.
Great interest is being aroused all
over the union and all eyes are being
turned toward the beautiful Mimbres
valley in southwest New Mexico,
where this great institution is to be
located and in the center of which,
surrounded by small picturesque noun
tains, nestles the little city Of Deming,
whose pure water, pure air and health
giving attributes are unsurpassed in all
THE wide world.
Help, and lots Of it, is needed to
carry out the humane and benevolent
work of the association.
There are twenty million families in
the United States, every one Of whom
should be interested in the success Of
the great movement. First: Because
il is the duty we all owe to our con-
science, to do something to make the
world better and help suffering human
ity. Second: There is great selfish
interest to be considered because a
large portion Of these twenty million
families are directly or indirectly in
terested in some one or more of their
own afflicted, for whom they are
anxious to help, not only this, but by
providing for and removing from their
midst they not only save the lives OF
their own dear ones, but they remove
the contagion from their own commu-
mites and save hundreds who would be
effected by contact with those re-
moved. In this climate a case Of con-
sumption has never been known to
originate, and the disease does not
spread among the nurses and physi-
clans as it does in low attitudes. Third;
Patients can be cured here far more
economically than at home.
All donations, gifts and contribu-
tions can be deposited in the local
banks and transferred by them direct
to the treasurer, August Schohy, who
is president of the Missouri Trust Co.,
st. Louis, where every dollar will be
promptly accounted for and be applied
to the relief of those are not able to
help themselves. Regular member
ships are one dollar. and annual dues
one dollar. 1t is expected in this way
t. provide an annual re;e ue Of several
millions of dollars which, together with
the donations and endownments, will
provide for thousands Of these unfor-
tunate people and restore them to
health and useful citizenship.
1t is the earnest desire of the associ-
alton to be able to commence receiving
patients early this fall, and the coun-
try will be informed as soon as the as
sociation is ready to receive applica-
tions.

Motto:-Not charity, but duty we
owe to humanity.
One million, two hundred and fifty
thousand people are suffering from this
dread contagion, ninety per cent Of
whom are between the ages of 10 and
10 years. The annual death rate from
consumption is far greater than all
other contagious diseases combined.
In the state af New York the deaths
from this disease are over 40 daily, 80
of whom in the city of New York
alone, aggregating over $4,000 deaths
annually, and in the United States
over 100, 600 between the ages Of 10 and
20 perish annually from this terrible
scourge.
No wonder that the reports of health
officers and great physicians Of the
world have aroused to action this great
army of united workers, whose aim
and purpose it is to wipe out this fear
ful plague.
Can it be done?
The answer comes from the greatest
scientists and the most eminent medi-
cal men of the world that it CAN be
done. Nature mas provided the rem
edy climate, pure, dry air and pure
water, reasonable care in this climate
and observance of of ordinary health
rules.
Over 80 per cent in the first stages
and 65 per cent in the more advanced
stages will be cured. This is no ran
dun statement. The statistics of
New Mexico show the truth of this
most conclusively.
DR.. Loomis, health officer of the
city of New York, says that it is safe
is state that for every death from this
contagion that the disease is commu-
nicated to at least two others. Thus
il. the city Of New York, where the
average daily death rate is 30, the new
cases are double this number. Now,
follow up this ratio throughout the
United States and think for one
moment what the ultimate result will
be to this nation unless something can
be speedily done to check this great
invasion and destruction of human life
Experience has demonstrated beyond
all doubt that the old methods Of treat
ing the disease has been asignal failure
and olny tended to prOlong the suffer
ings Of the victims. And it is greatly
to the credit Of the grandest medical
minds in the world that they have, al
most unanimously, and unselhshly and
humanely, laid bare the claims of
quacks and charlatans, and have given
the public the true remedy.
The national colony and sanitarum
for consumptives has been organized on
the broadest and most humane princi-
pies. The institution will be governed
on semi-government military system.
Patients received will be required to
conform to the rules Of the association.
They will not be permitted to shut
themselves in hotels and houses, but
will be kept out in the pure, open, dry
air as much as possible. Lands will be
donated to churches, fraternal orders
and philanthropic individuals who de-
sire to erect memorial buildings or spe-
cial buildings for the use of their spe-
cial charges free of cost. The only
condition being that the health and
sanitary rules of the association must
be observed.
The plans Of the association are

is the intention to make what butter
is used at the home, instead of purchas-
ing it, as soon as the proper facilities can
be had. 1t was also decided to put in

the bottom are to be put in first class
condition. The deer that was recently

special appropriation from the state will
be needed to pay for the contemplated
improvements.
