FULL FORGE WILL WORK
Situation Excellent in All De- partmentS Outlook for
 Greater Activity.
CAMP HAS RESUMED
 NORMAL CONDITIONS.

CANANEA. July 9.-The succession of Mir. Cole on the first of the month to the position of manager with the Can anea Consolidated Copper Co, brought no radical changes in the conduct of the work of his office and it is under stood that it will bring none With his familiarity with all the operations of the properties of the company, Mir. Cole has excellent equipment for car rying on the affairs of his office in a manner highly satisfactory and agreeable to all concerned. That he will do so there is not the slightest doubt among the many who are ac- quaintcd with the work he has ac- complished in the camp and who are in consequence his admirers and firm friends.
 Rumor early in the week told of many resignations from various de partments of the company as the re- suit of MT. Dwight's decision to retire, but MT. Dwight alone has so far step- ped out. Some resignations have been rendered, it Is known, but have not been accepted. Meantime things are running along as smoothly in the va rious departments as might be de- siIed and there will be DO change from this. In the mines the opera tive force is now fully restored to where it was at the end of May. En- tire satisfaction seems to prevail among the Mexican miners, and there are reasons for believing that better force than ever employed is now at work with no outlook for recurrence of friction. More men are being put on steadily and the prospects are that the fall will see the largest number employed under ground and in and about the reduction works that has ever been on the payroll in Cananea. The new men coming on are high class workmen with good records and will give the camp a better class of labor than ever before enjoyed.
 The smelter this months will in all Likelihood get back to normal produc- ton of something like six million pounds and will possibly exceed this mark. The mines are fully equal to doing so and if it is cared to crowd the smelter the higher figures can be attained, barring unforeseen delays oc- .casioned by need of repairs, which are at all times to be considered as con tingencies which may arise to occasion delay in any reduction works.
 While the mines are all looking well and steadily showing up increases in ore bodies and in values work on the surface is keeping pace. The mixing pit will at no distant date be ready for service in complete manner and other surface improvements are also coming along in satisfactory way. On the whole the situation with the C. c. c. Co, is excellent, a fact that is evidently appreciated abroad if the splendid manner in which the stock of the company has been holding steady in the last several weeks despite heavy declines sustained by many of the Eastern market issues may be taken as a guide. That it is the best sort of expression of confidence in the property and management is undenia- bly true.

FAKE HAIR PREPARATIONS.
Do Hair No Good, but Often Cause it
 to Fall Out.

Many hair preparations are flake" because they are merely scalp irri- tanrs. They often cause a dryness. making the hair brittle, and, finally. ltteles5. DandTuff is the cause of all trouble with hair. IL is a germ dis ease. The germ makes cutic1e scales as it digs 10 the root of the hair, where it destroys the hairs vitality, causing it to fall out To cure dan =druff, the germ must be killed. ''Dc- stroy the cause, you remove the ef- feet" Newbro's Herpicide is the only hai- preparation that kills the dan druff germ, thereby leaving the hair to grow hxuriantly.

ONE OF ROCK
EFELLER'S STORIES

This weather." said Cleveland
Baptist. reminds me OF an address
once heard John d. Rockefeller
make.
"Mr. Rockefeller was speaking of
the value OF little things-spare min
utes. spare pennies, and SO on.
HE told us how one of the littlest
things i'm the human line that he has
ever seen-a little new Office boy
had caused him. at the beginning OF
his career, to distrust a bookkeep-
or who afterward turned out 20 be
an untrustwothy man.
"This boy had come TO work in
Mr. Rockefeller's Office. He was a
bright little fellow and the chief
liked his looks.
"One hot August afternoon. rs
Mr.. Rockefeller was starting out to
collect n bill. he said kindly TO the
little boy:
"I suppose the bookkeeper has
told you what to do this afternoon
Yes, sir" answered the 10y,
am to wake him up when I see you

A DEAD ONE.


Breathes there a man with con, %
dead.
VINO never to himself hath said:
My trade OF late is getting bad:
I'll try mother ten-inch ad."
If such there be go mark him well:
For him no bank account will swell
NO angels watch the golden stair
To welcome home the millionaire.
Fhe man who never asks for trade
BY local line or ad displayed,
Cares more for rest than worldly
gain.
And patronage but gives him pain.
Tread lightly. friend; let no rude
sound
Disturb his solitude profound.
Here let him live in calm repose,
Unsought except by men he owes.
And when he dies. go plant him
deep.
That naught may break his dream
less sleep;
Where no rude clamor may dispel
The quiet that he loved so we'll
And when the world may know its
loss.
Place on his grave wreath OF moss.
And on a stone above: Here lies
A chump who wouldn't advertise"
