Tomorrow marks the close OF the spring
duck shooting season, and number of
hunters went out yesterday and today to
take last chance at tho festive bird.
Some who returned today reported only
ordinary luck, but ducks were reported
as being plentiful at the mouth OF Bear
river. This years spring shooting has
not been very great success The ducns
have been plentiful In some parts Of
the. country. but the sentiment against
spring shooting has kept many hunters
at home. II Is believed that the sentl-
ment IL growing and that before another
year rolls around spring duck hunters will
be few and far between.

Totals .54l .2H5 100 5G5,s2O 100
The total increase shown last year
was II, 525 tons. or Ia per cent.
Nearly one half Of this was from the
mi mes of North America outside of
the United States; that Is. from
Mexico aud Canada. South American
mines showed some gain. chiefly
owning to more active work In Chile,
aud not to the opening of new mines.
The European inscrease was nearly
all from Russia. while that of Asia
was from Japan. The gain in Africa
was due To the recovery Of mines IN
Namaqualand from the injuries in
fIicted in the BOer war. The output
of Australasia was stationary and we
do not see the promised gain from
new mines in New South Wales aud
Queensland. As for several years
past, the greater part of the pro-
ductiun was from pyrite deposits of
Mount Lyell. ia Tasmania.
In fact, the new sources of copper
supply opened in the past two or
three years are all ia North America.
