Training.

Outing.
A soldier should be physically prepared
as well as mentally educated to perform
his duties. A regular course of physical
culture now recognized as highly bene-
fetal to men in any walk of life, is of still
greater Importance to the soldier on whose
Physical constitution depends the success
of campaign Military training Is wasted
if it cannot be present at the fight; a
good. sound physique will take it there; to
acquire this necessitates well-arranged
course of .ca1isthenics and athletic instruc-
ton, intelligently applied Athletics should
be a feature Of the military training of a
soldier, and persuasive policies to induce
him to participate in athletics has no
place in the relations of officers and men,
and should give way to orders prescribing
proper instruction. Athletics will make the
service more attractive to the men, will
increase the number of re- enlistmentS, and
will make the army more efficient.

Special to The Journal.
Winnipeg, Man, Aug. 31.-The weekly
crop report issued by the Canadian North
ern and Canadian Pacific shows a great inn
provement in crop conditions last week.
At many points harvesting has started
and will be general by next week.
The weather conditions, except for the
past two days, have been all that could
be wished for, and the report is that,
while in places rains which were
not needed have interfered with harvest,
there has been no damage done. At no
point will the rust do damage to the ex-
tent of more than 10 per cent. Frost
was reported at Oakville, the only point
so far visited.

 On Expanding PURCHASES CONTROL IN COPPER CENTER GROUP - ADJOlNS STANDARD ON THE EAST CONSIDERABLE WORK
 ALREADY DONE
 THERE.

A telegram was received here Mon- day last from President C. A. Ross of the Standard Consolidated, who is now in New York, conveying the information that he had. on behalf Of his company. that day purchased a control of the Copper Group, which consists of eight patented mines, ad joining the holdings of the Standard mines of the east. Considerable de- velc pment work has been done on these claims, showing ore of the same general character as that produced in the Standard mines. The newly ac- Quired property lies along the crest of the mountains east of the Standard, and will be opened through Standard o,kings at a great depth. The ore veins of the Copper Center run para llel with the Standard mines, with dip towards them. The trend of the ore veiws of the Standard mines are toward the Copper Center claims. hence it is reasonably certain that the veins will intercept each other on Standard ground. where large bodies Of ore undoubtedly exist. The pu- chase Of these claims gives the Stan dard Consolidated the control of the mountains on either side of the Stan dard basin, making it a most ideal and economical proposition. Tn all the Standard Consolidated now 23 claims in one solid group. (besides the 29 Coronado claims) which are noted as the producers of the richest copper ores in the district. or the ter ritory of Arizona Since commenc- ing work on the San Jose claim about three weeks ago. Manager Rosecrans has opened up a two-foot vein of glance which averages 42 per cent copper This vein will be cut by low CT workings, opening a body of ex- ceedingly rich ore which will be stopped later and brought 10 the railroad over the Standard tramway. With the acquiring of the Copper Center group the Standard Consolidated has been greatly strengthened, and can now be considered as one of the most prom is ing companies in Arizona.-Co1- per Era.

 The long delay by the court in rendering a decision has been the cause Of much speculation as 10 its meaning and considerable impatience among stockholders It would ap- pear now that the real object in de- ferring to render Q decision was to allow the Old Dominion company aided by a working agreement with Phelps, Dodge & Co, by which it was enabled to obtain sulphide ores cheap ly from Bisbee, and under Phelps Dodge management-to show what il could do in the way of the profitable production of copper.
