A. Lefave met with quite a serious , accident while grinding the head of a Hammer in the machine shops. The handle of the hammer struck the <belt, which drove the hammer down between the stone and the casing, forcing MT. Lefave's right hand onto the stone which was revolving at the rate of 12O revolutions per minute. The stone tore the flesh from the bones of the hand and knuckles, but it is not thought that the injuries will be of permanent nature.

 The plant is in good condition and the average daily output of the past two months of over 100000 pounds of copper will probably be maintained. The supply of coke on hand amounts to about $500 tons and is daily being augmented.-Belt
 On June l the Standard Copper mines paid a dividend of 2 cents per share, after which it had something more than $l5,O00 in it's treasury, and was free from indebtedness. The same statement showed that the Standard Consolidated company had more than S6OO0 on hand. A proposi- ton has been made by the Standard Consolidated company to allow all | Coronado shareholders who traded their holdings for Consolidated to ex- change their Consolidated shares for Coronado shares, at the same ratio in which they were received The Coronado shareholders, it seems, al ways thought they got the worst ot the deal, while on the other hand the shareholders of the Standard Copper mines who went into the Consolidated company imagined that they were the ones who got the worst of it by the Consolidated company taking over the Coronado property. Some months ago the Consolidated sold controlling interest in the Coronado company to the Shannon company for $50, ,OO0, and an agreement with the Shannon company to spend a like amount of money on the devel- opment of the property, whicl con- tract is being carried out. Should the former owners of Coronado shares trade back their Consolidated shares for Coronado the interest of the Consolidated company il the Coronado would be pretty wellwiped out, and the treasury of the C,nsoli- dated company would be strngth- ened by the exchange. This exihange of stock was probably arranyed be- cause both parties to the. original deal seemed dissatisfied. Tn: Stan dard Copper mines are nov doing better than they have done ia nearly two years. The tonnage is being in- creased and the ore is of a 4Rch bet ter grade than last year. 4he ERA is of the opinion that the directors would have done better to have ap- propriated the money pail out in dividends to further deyelpment of the property. While it is kIown that European shareholders have been persistent in their demaLls for a dividend, it is also true tht they do not understand the situation, and that their interests would gave been enhanced more by the deRlopment of the property than by thipayment of the dividend. The div%end will not materially benefit tSe selling price of the stock while tn opening of new ore bodies on the property would enhance the value.

LOCAL MINES AND MINING.

The output of the Old Dominion smeher for the month of May was over 3,1OO,OOO pounds of blister cop per, which is the largest production for any one month in the history of the company. The furnaces were in actual operation only 294 days and for twelve days of that period were operated with reduced blast, while the large blower engine was being remodeled. There was run through the furnaces during the month 3S,- 900 tons of ore, slag and lime rock.

No history Of music in Anterior will be
complete that does not make Use Of the two
volumes published by A. c. McClurg & Co.
Of Chicago, Theodore Thomas: Musical
Autobiography edited by George p
Upton. There may be difference OF opinion as
to the standing OF Thomas as a musician OF

he directed. That he filed a large place in
the musical life Of the country and especially
Of New York in the years when the taste
for orchestral music was developing no.
body can deny. His place In musical his
tory Is fixed; fixed in New York, too, though
Cincinnati and Chicago, naturally enough,
strive to claim him as their own.
The first hundred pages Of Mr.. Upton's
book are taken Ip with Theodore Thomas
own autobiography, an interesting story,
with some strange omissions, with some
not wholly charitable comments, but COW
ering the period from 1850 to the end Of the
century, back Of which there is little enough
to tell for New York, at least. A touching
account Of his last illness by Mrs. Thomas
follows. Then Mr.. Upton takes up tho tale
and completes the acc cunt with his own
"reminiscences OF Mr.. Thomas he has also
added instructive notes to the autobiogra-
ply. This makes up the first volume.
The second volume Is a record. 1t con-
tains a judicious and well made selection
from the 10000 programs in Thomas's
collection, followed by list Of composers
and works first introduced by him to the
American public. It is a monument to
Thomas and the work he did, and must
be consulted by every writer on music in
America.
At the same time the criticism may be
made that the selection Is made from Mr..
Upton's and the musicians point Of view
that Thomas's best efforts we're in the
introduction OF classical and modern or
chestral music In the days Of the Central
Park garden concerts he did not despise
popular music, and perhaps those concerts
did as much for New York's musical taste
as the Philharmonic and the symphony
concerts.
The two volumes are illustrated with
portraits OF bygone concert room celebri-
ties. They tell a story that will interest
old New Workers, we fancy, even more
than Thomas later admirers in the West.

Five years ago Mr.. j. Storer Clouston
wrote an amusing tale, The Lunatic at
Large, which is now republished by F. M.
Buckles Co. It is a story that is often
amusing, but which depends almost wholly
on horseplay for its funniness. The lunatic
and the manner in which he gets out Of his
predicament are interesting, but the luna
tics actions when at large would certainly
warrant his being shut up, The story

ism We fear that Mr.. Harold MacGrath
steers pretty close to the wind in THE
Princess Elopes" CThe Bobbs-Merrill Com
pany) The placing Of an impossible tale
in mythical feudal land has not been copy
righted. however. and Mr.. MacGrath tells
his short story glibly enough to carry the
reader along. He goes 80 far as TO reintro-
duce the straw berry mark TO current fiction.
Seldom have we come across more
unpleasant young woman than Miss Frances
Aylmar Mathews has created for her heroine
In The Marquise's Millions Funk Wag-
nails Company. She starts rather need

common cheat, but her nerve fails her.
The ladies' and gentlemen in the tale are
made ridiculous and the criminals are
vulgar as well.

fusion the reader might excuse, for that

but the author could not clear her heroine
Of a murder charge in court, and the love

An excellent and original story by Mr.
A. Z. W. Mason, -Four Feather" which
was favorahly reviewed when il first ap-
peared, has been added to the paper novel
series published by the Macmillans. It is far
superior to most Of the stories that have

In the tale; what knowledge u obtained

moves and those Of his detectives is kept
In suspense skilfully. The book Is by no
means fawless; after he has finished, the
reader may ask himself whether there is
sufficient motive to account for the be-
havior OF the prosecuted or even for the viii
lians atrocities, but he will not think Of
that till the end. There IL a lack Of dis
tinction, too, about the book, but we cannot
have everything in a detective story, and
Of its kind this is a very good and skiHul

nothing absurd in Coryat's account Of what
