Educational Notes.

The second meeting Of the county
teachers association was held at the
school house last Saturday. About
fifty teachers were present and a
large number of visitors. The pro-
gram was an interesting one and many
of the teachers took part in the dis
cussion Of the various topics. Litter
allure for Children" was the subject
Of an excellent paper read by Miss
Blanche Gebhart. 1t was freely dis
cussed and all agreed that taste for
good reading should be cultivated in
the child early la his life and that
care should be exercised in the selec-
tion Of the boots and stories read to
him. A very able talk was that OF
Prof. W. r. Arthur of Logan on "The
Teachers effortitoward Self Improve
ment." Young teachers should i'm
prove themselves by better prepare
tion for their work; older teachers
should broaden their intellectS by
reading and study, should do the pro-
fessional work outlined, should fully
acquaint themselves with the practi-
cal affairs OF life and live and teach 30
that their inildence will be felt in the
community. Prof. o. o. Young read
a verv able and interesting paper on
"lhe Duty OF the Teacher Toward
Moral aud Civic Instruction. II we
would have less corruption and crime
in our land, the schools must impress
a strong sense Of morality on our chill
dren and teach them greater respect
for our laws. misguided Energy In
the School Room" was the subject of
a paper by Prof. Charles Kelly Of Kir-
win, Many good thoughts were
brought out both as to energy OF the
teacher and that Of the pupil. A good
deal of wasted energy could be put to
good use II properly directed. Miss
Nettie Barber read a carefully prepar-
ed paper on Mythology in Litera-
ture." She brought out the beauty
and interest Of the old myths on which
many Of our best poems are based.
On the whole the session was very
helpful to the teachers. The next as
ISOLATION will be held during Normal.

The Pay for oovsrnmen, Work.

In regard to the compensation for
government work, intelligent obServa-
tion will probably confirm the cpl
gramat ic statement In the newspaper
witt icism that has lately gone the
rounds TO the effect that the pay Is
small for some public 0Gicials, but
that some poblic officials are small for
the pay AS a rule, the lower posi-
tlons in the government service are
paid more and the higher positions
less, than In private business. In
most of the offices advancement is
slower, but that is partly compensated
for by the fact that the.pay Is higher
on the whole In the earlier years A
man who has work d ten years for
Uncle Sam will probably have had a
gross income about equal to what a
man of similar abilities, working the
same length Of time, would have re-
csived from railroad company. At
the start his salary would have been
better than the railroad mans, but
the latter in all likelihood would have
caught up with him and outstripped
him in the ten.year period. In the
long run, one evens up with the other.
This statement applies to the general
departmental positions in Washing.

TILL SINKING AT SMELTER
THE ARTISAN WELL DOWN 67o FEET-NEW CRUSHER AT
 LIME QUARRY.

The artesian well at the Copper Queen smelter is now down 670 feet, and no bedrock has been struck yet. The flow continues at 200 gallons per minute, as it was when struck at a depth of about 450 feet. Hitherto the volcanic formation has been reached by the smelter people at a depth of 47S feet on the upper level, and they expected to reach it on the lower level at 500 feet, but at ITO feet deeper they have not yet touched it. This forma- ton constitutes the bedrock of the Sulphur Springs valley, and when it is struck in this well a much larger How of water is expected. When the present well is finished the machine will be moved to the lime quarry and a well sunk there. The machine is yet boring in sand and has been doing so for 200 feet
 A new rock cTusher is to be in- stalled al the lime rock quarry of very large capacity. It will be served with 150 horse power boiler and win have a capacity of 100 tons per hour, reducing the rock to a consistency of four inches. Additional kilns will be added. increasing the storage capacity to 5000 or 5000 tons.

Bisbee, Dec. IS.
 Failure of three banks in Chicago today, namely. the Chicago National, the Home Savings and the Equitable Trust Co.,, caused the Bisbee copper stock Jo decline, as these different hanks, although controlled by one party. were heavy holders of Bonanza coppers. and many were compelled to sell. and the whole lot was thrown on- to the market, stocks being offered al ridiculous prices, and mOneyed men bought up some very cheap stocks This failure also caused some quick business in the New Works. Amalga- mated dropping from $10O to S93, and North Butte from sS6 to ST7, but both stocks reacted.
 You could not sell gold brick today for 50 cents, and all you could do was to sit and wait, for it was absolutely useless to try and sell.
 Calumet & Pittsburg sold off as low as S37: L. S. & P. in large blocks was offered at $50. P. & D. changed hands at S2950, and Junction the same. Keweenaw also sold off, and the best bid that was obtainable was Sl5. but nothing under SIS came out
 Denn was offered at $25. American at $19.5O. Cochise is being offered in good lots at s7.o0.

OF HARD LUCK.

Judge c. R. Bostwick headed a par ty of seven looking into the gold mines and piacers of the Bacoachi district, Sonora, Mexico.
 Among the party were Maj. Geo. Byron Scammell, an old timer and one of ex-Gov. Oakes Murphy's staff, re- siding at present in Los Angeles; r. J. Abbott, president of the Intcrnation- al Ore & Treatment company, of San Francisco; W. C. Gates, Alaska. famil- iariy known as Swift Water Bill IG F. Anloff, San Francisco; J. E. Rog- CTS. San Francisco and c. NJ. Sanders Cananea, Mexico.
 The party was out for a week and had all kinds of accidents-wagons upset in Sonora river, luggage and lunch floating down stream, horses lstucki in the quick sand, and half the party wading to shore in water waia deep. pack animals floating off, sleep ing out of doors. breaking pole tongue: and walking into camp ten miles, etc These were only a few of Jh'
 punches that were handed to the par
 ty.
 There were three cameras in th' party and every time an accident oc
 cured it was a sure snap shot.

DAILY OUTPUT AT
 IMPERIAL IS 100 TONS.

At the Imperial company's mines near Tucson. which property is con ducted by the same management as governs work on the Tombstone Con. Co. the are shipments are 100 tons Jaily. They are 80 feet below the 50ofoot level, in high grade ore and are still sinking. The mine is devel- oping beyond expectation in point of ore bodies both in size and values. The management is now at work on plans for smelted and concentrating mill The capacity of the smelter will be 30e tons per day to begin with, but the plant will be constructed so that 3e0 ton units may be added from time to time as the development of the property may necessitate. During the first year. since the shipment of ore began. the output of the mine has been 10000 pounds of copper. The present rate of production is 600 900 pounds of copper per month.

RICH STRIKE MADE

The old Hanover mine near Han over which is owned by the Phelps Dodge people. reports rich strike the past few days.
 The Phelps-DOdge company has for the past three or four months been working quite a large force of miners on the property doing development work.
 A large body of high grade copper ore was uncovered and, while at the present time 1t is impossible to state the exact extent of the body. it is thought it is fully as extensive as the big strike that was made in this mine a few years ago. when S250,000 worth of high grade copper ore was taken out.
 The ore will run from 14 to 20 per cent copper.
