Real Estate Dealings.
The week Just closing has shown much
activity In real estate circles and while
no large deals have been put through
there has been considerable trading In
small properties.
People continue to buy homes and this
constitutes the principal feature of the
trading In Ensley real estate.
Possibly the largest deal during the
week was the transfer of $1,000 worth of
property from the Peoples Realty COM
pany of this city. The deal was handled
by j. NJ. Perkins.
Building activity continues and the
week has shown marked progress all
along these lines. Several important bus
mess blocks in course of building are
rapidly nearing completion and construc-
ton of residences and small cottages is
going on rapidly in all sections of the city.

Another clever veterinary had a system
all his own. When he received an overfed
toy dog he would consign him to dis
used brick oven with crust of bread,
an onion and an old boot. When the
dog began to gnaw the bread the anxious
mistress was informed that her darling
was doing nicely" When it commenced
operations on the onion word was sent
that the pet was decidedly BETTER but

Some. months ago they discovered a large body or high grade copper ore in the Shamrock mine. MT. Arthur Murphy, Jr.- president of the company, came out from Boston and it was decided to ship the ore to Clifton for treatment. About fifteen tons per day is being shipped to the shannon Copper com pany's reduction works where it re- ceives treatment. The entire work is not confined to taking out shipping ore by any means, but a good force of men is kept busy developing other mines
 For a number of years Tom Larkins has been in charge of these mines. He has gone through all the discouraging processes that so often swamp young companies in a new and undeveloped region. To MT. Larkins' ability as a practical mining man and a stayer whom adverse circumstances do not discourage, may be attributed largely the success of this company. This dis trict is rapidly developing into an tx ceedingiy rich country.

At first the old San Juan shaft, which had nearly one hundred rect of water in it was depended upon for the supply. It did not take many days to exhaust this supply Then the old Greenough shaft was cleaned our and pumps put to work in that. and this proved to be insufficient. Then MT. Weber put a force of men to work sinking a well at Walnut Springs Here they have developed what is believed to be sufficient water for all purposes.
 On Monday a carload of pipe arrived m Satford and was immediately sent To the mines and is now being laid to conduct the water from the spring to the mill. The water has to be piped aDout a mile and half. When they get the connections all made the con centrator will be kept in constant or- Guardian.

 The new concern which lately ac- quiIed the property is under the man agement of the Manhattan Securities company of New York. with T. F.. Campbell as general manager who is conducting the operations in a miner like and scientific way with view of getting the mine in shape for economic operation on a pretentious scale.
 After his return from the property yesterday, MT. Campbell in conversa- ton with Journal Miner man. said: Our underground operations are at present confined to running No tun- nel ahead to connect with No. 9 shaft distance of 200 feet farther wesr along the vein. The shaft is now 127 feet in depth, and the tunnel will tan the vein at a depth of 1SS feet below the bottom of it. From this shaft which is known as the Redmond shaft some of the best ore ever found in the mine was taken in 1898 by Colorado miners. who had a lease on the ground. The pay streak in the tunnel is now five feet in width, and samples on the average SIP to the ton in gold Tn addition to this and associated with the paystreak four-inch vein of sul- ohide ore was recently uncovered which gave returns of $13O to the ton in gold, and which appears to be wid- ening out as the tunnel is being ad- vanced ahead. Since encountering this sulphide ore there has been a consider able increase in the water in the tunnel but not enough to interfere with the work. The water can be used to great advantage later, when work on the mine is far enough advanced to com mence the treatment of the ores at the mill
 This is the first water of any con- sequence ever struck in the mine. and coming as it does with the appearance of the sulphide ores, is a good indica- ton that the sulphide streak is a per manent one, and that the values will be much greater and more constant be- low the water level.

 The shaft which is four feet by eight feet eight inches in dimensions. says the Journal Miner. is now down to a depth of 176 feet, the values of the ore body showing continual improvement with depth. The ledge runs in a north easterly and southwesterIy direction dipping at an angle of about 8 de- grees to the west The ore body. which is considered a low grade prop osition, carries fair values in gold. siI- ver lead, and copper, and is consid- cred one of the most promising in the district.

J. F. Bartlett a well known miner who came in from the Huachucas Sat urday, reports that a Pittsburg com
 pany of which a MT. Currier is pres ident, will start development work on a large bunch of claims in Ash can yon this month. The president of the company will arrive here on or about the fifteenth instant and will lay out the work upon his arrival. MT. Bart lett has been in the Huachucas about two months and put in most of his time getting cured of a bad case of ptOmaine poisoning brought on by eat ing some spoiled canned corned beef.
 R. Ingram. who owns the Quincy group of claims situated about three miles northwest of Bisbee on the oth- CT side of the divide. arrived in the city Saturday from his camp. MT Ingram says he has been out doing the annual assessment work for the past six months. besides doing some general prospecting on the claims and has de- veloped an excellent surface showing Samples taken from one of the assess ment shafts show values as follows: Copper. S.5 per cent; gold, SS.2O, and silver 19 ounces. MT. Ingram is figuring on organizing a company to develop the claims.
 Another change in the formation has taken place in the Cochise shaft since Saturday and strong indication of ore is present in the shape of an in- trusion at the south end of the shaft of heavy mass of iron ore, carrying, in a limited quantity. copper and suI- phides. The iron ore is soft, being very much decomposed. and is evidently ledge matter. Whether the shaft is en- tering a large body of it cannot be +-T feet of sinking to find out whether it is in quantity or not. The next two blastings will probably tell the tale Bisbee Miner

TO KEEP YOUNG.

Never retire from active life if you can possibly avoid it; keep 'in the swim; keep the mind active; never refer to your advancing years or say "at my age'
 To preserve youth. you must have a variety of experience. The country woman at forty, although breathing a purer air and living on a more health fuI diet than the city woman, often looks fifty while the latter at the same But her mind is more active than that of her country sister; that is the secret of her more youthful appearance.
 Nothing else ages one more rapidly than monotony-a dead level existence without change of scene or experience. The mind must be kept fresh or it will age, and the body cannot be younger than the mind.
 Few minds are strong enough to over come the aging influence of the mo- notonOus life which rules in the aver age country home. City people have infinitely greater variety of life. They enjoy themselves a great deal more than country people. They work hard when a work. but, when they are through. they drop everything and have a good time. There is DO doubt that the theater in spite of it's many evils has done a great deal toward erasing the marks of age. People who Iaugn much retain their youth longer.-O. $.

Arizona Mines


Reliable reports received yesterday from the Iron King mine near Hum boldt indicate that the camp is again resuming it's old time activity. says the Journal Miner. over forty miners are now employed in the second and third levels in the mine, and shipments. av- eraging 100 tons, are being daily made to the plant of the Arizona Smelting company at Humboldt
 The profitable operation of this mine. which contains large bodies of medium g ade ores, was made possible by the market afforded by the blowing in of the plant of the Arizona Smelling com pany at Humboldt, and the indications now arc that the force will in a short time be considerably increased, and the output of the mine doubled.
