Cocoanut SEM Throuah MAUD.

A letter carrier in the Louisville
(Ky1 postofice was surprised to find
among the mail matter ready for his
distribution few days ago a large
cocoanut III all its natural hairy COW
erings. He thought at first that some
one was trying to play a joke on him,
but upon looking closely he discovered
that the cocoanut was duly stamped,
postmarked and addressed to a young
woman of his regular route. 1t had
been sent from a Florida town and
bore sixteen two cent stamps to cover
postage At one spot the hair had
been carefully scraped OF, revealing a
smooth surface. on which TIE address
was written IN ink. The unique mail
sparcel was promptly delivered TO the
young woman, and she later told the
postman that it had lost nothing of its
favor BY reason of its odd method Of
transmission.

tremely rich ore was being uncovered
at the Oregon King mine. Brown
got the information In a letter from
relatives in the Ashwood camp, and
within thirty. six hours hc was on his

to the property. Brown himself does
not believe that he would ever have

as soon as possible, and II no local
contingency arises, 1t Ii understood,
that actual construction will start as

LADD SMtLTfR WILL
BURN WOOD FOR FUEL

Zera Snow, formerly Of Salt Lake,
and now practicinR attorney at
Portland, is largely interested in the
Ladd Metals company, which markets
regular consignments Of copper mat
te to the valley points plants. The
Ladd company is now installing a
smelter In the Seven Devils district,
while the one now in operation Is
located at Mineral. The new plant,
according to a statement made by Mr..
Snow In Boise day or two ago, will
probably handle sixty tons Of ore per
day. The plant is being built
along new lines and In consequence
it's capacity can only be determined
In practice. 1t will be a combina-
tion Of reverberatory and stack
furnace, designed to utilize wood
for fuel. The ore is of such char.
scter that most Of the values can be
saved In the reverberatory. Wood Is
to be used for fuel owing to the i'm. ..
practicability Of getting coal and
coke from the outside.
Mr.. Snow said there would be
ample ore for the plant. While the
amount In sight so far was limited,
the fact Of the smelter being In op-
Grafton would stimulate mining and
lead to the opening of an adequate
supply. While there was rich ore
that would bear transportation to
distant points for treatment, there
were quantities carrying values too
low to be disposed of I'm that manner.
or the operations Of the new com
pany at Mineral, Mr.. Snow said
there had been some very rich strikes
recently In the company's mines, hut
the great bulk of the ore was ordinary
grade. Plans had been made for
changing the furnaces so as to utilize
coal for fuel In the place of coke.
With this change they would be able
to handle ores running rs low as six
per cent copper. whereas they cannot
now utilize ores that get much below
eight per cent. - Weiser Signal.

IMPERIAL IS UNDER
BOND AND LEASE

Lease and bond on the Eagle
Consolidated group, which embraces
the Imperial mine, was granted today
to McEwen, Arthur 4 McEwen.
John Arthur, Of the firm, has already
negotiated for the machinery re
quired and work will be started at
once.
A mill, 1t is stated, In practice
carefully thought out by nT. Arthur
for some years, will be installed.
This general policy will probably
prove profitable to many small mines
of the Cable Cove district, now that
there is smelter In Sumpter to take
care of the product Of their jiRs and
concentrators.
1t is understood that Captain Paul,
superintendent under the old mango
ment, will represent the owners aud
that shipping will begin almost i'm
