THE COPPER QUEEN.
Some Late News From One of the
Worlds Greatest Copper Mines.

II the existing reputation of the
Copper Queen as a magnificent pro-
ducer is to be eXcelled in Arizona, il
is quite evident that she will have to
make new record herself. says the
Bisbee Review. The old smelter in its
last days seems TO be turning out the
red metal in greater abundance than
ever before, while the mighty prepara-
tions for breaking and reducing Gre
would indicate infallibly that the big
Copper Queen is still in short dresses
Aside from the heavy surface inn
proyementS a the Spray and Hol-
brook, and the completion of the new
compartment in the Holbrook shaft,
the most important work consists in
blocking out for the mammoth smell
ter and connecting the different pro-
ducing properties by drifts The
Queen people are not assembling that
mighty forest of steel and brick and
tufa at Douglas for a blind.
They are preparing to turn out cop
per and Bisbee will have to turn in
most of the ore.
Much greater work is In progress
at the Lowell and Gardner than the
public is aware of. The recent report
that the new hoist would be placed
on the Gardner would seem to be full
~ justified by appearances. and
drifting has made such progress that
with permission of the management
one may take an underground
buggyride in the near future, from
the Gar to the Lowell, subject to the
necessity of shifting from one level
TO another on the interesting trip.
From existing indications, the great
Queen system is strictly in the race

ter that detail with the calm and COM

BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTS FATE.
Marie Antoinette's Harp to Be Sold in
New York.

The course Of events can never be
foreseen. AS the beautiful Queen Ma
rie Antoinette of France once sat in
her boudoir in the Little Trianon play
ing her harp. a gift of her husband
King Louis XVI. she certainly did not
think that a few wears later the world
would see her being carried to the scat
fold by her enraged people. AS hor
dainty fingers struck tuneful chords
she did not dream that her property
would be spread almost over all the
world. and that more than 100 yeare
after her death this beloved harp would
find a resting place in some art collel'
ton in country far over the ocean.
But this is to be the fate of the beau
tiful instrument. Marie Antoinette's

THE OIL SHELTER AT MAYER
Still in Experimental Stage but lndi-
cations Are Favorable.

The repairs and alterations on the
hydro-carbon oil burning smelter of
the Ct. A. Treadwell company, at
Mayer, having been completed. the
smelter was started up again last
Thursday and up to Saturday evening
was still in operation, giving good
satisfaction. AS this is the first
smelter of the kind ever built, the
operation of it is being watched with
great interest by parties interested in
mining. AS yet it is still in the ex-
perimental stage but the indications
are very favorable for success. The
heat furnished by the oil burner is
most intense, and will do the work re-
quired of it all right, the alterations
required being on other parts of the
smelter. E. D. Treadwell who is in
charge of it has great faith in its sue
cess, and he says he has enough ore
in sight now to keep it in operation for
a year without opening up any new
ground.

Some Mistletoe Rules.

Mistletoe is sacred because its ber-
ries grow in clusters of three-emblem-
attic of the Trinity. They used to wear
bits around their necks as a safeguard
from witches. but in modern times it
leads us toward witches of a more at
tractive kind. The maid that was not
caught and kissed under the mistletoe
at Christmas would not be married
within the year, so the tradition goes.
According to the old rules the cerc-
mony is not properly performed unless
berry was pulled off after each kiss
and presented to the maid. When the
berries were gone the privilege ceased.
