American smelling and Rcanins Com.
pany. which will install n series o'

eos, Of these various Improvements
will be enormous and Will bc an under
Sal,ius Of a pioneer nature. nothing OF
the Kind on such n huge scale hnS'
ing ever been attempted before In the
United States.
The zinc ores Of Colorado wcrc
formerly shipped abroad TO be treated.
They cama principally from Lcadsiilc
and tho San Juan country. and u ~
only recently that tho American smclt
Ing and Refining Company decided 10
treat these ores In Colorado. The COM
many has been working In a small way
for two or three years To pcrfcot
syrfcm for treating these ores. Thc
rctuj, has been that they have been
luyius a great deal Of zinc ore In this
sta,s and have raised the price TO tho
p,otiuccr Of this mineral about ss a
ION. Although tho cost Of labor In Colo
RADIO Ia three times as great as In
Eurnp.. the operation OF the zinc plant
in Pueblo. Incorporated rs the United
gta,ss Zinc Company and originated
ty the Gurscnhuims. has sent up the
mic, Of these ores and stimulated
their production to what promises TO
be a magnificent scale.
Eisht times as many men arc
YcavIrod to handle zinc ores as is
necessary to properly treat the same
tonnAse where zinc is not present. The
action Of the company was reecnty
taken by its board OF directors who
have under way plans for the greater
development Of the zinc industry o'
Colorado. Il Is probable that zinc
s.nei,cr will be established In Denver
10 encourage the production Of the
Northern Clear Creek district ores.
which, with the increased price OF
zinc. can be successfully handled.
4, Is said that the Increased market
for zinc ores will stimulate activiy
In a sco.s Of mining camps In the
,,s;c and have an Immediate effect
upon employment OF labor. The com.
rany is satisfied that the ores In
i,eadville, the San Juan country and
various other sections Of Colorado are
no valuable for their zinc contents
that what was formerly such low
grade ore ,ha, II could not he treated
with profit to the miner will now be
produced in abundance TO the benefit
Of ali concerned. The Innovation on
the par, Of the smei,er company means
more fo- Colorado than any action that
has been taken In the development OF
its mining industry for many years. A
vast sum Of money will be spent In
the development Of the zinc industry
and Colorado will become the central
sunp,y puint of the world for this metal.

BOUT A DRAW

There was just one good fight at the
Colna Athletic club in one Hundred and
Twenty-flfth street, last night. New York
city. That was between Bob Adler and
JEFF Dougherty. who met In the hnal
bout They fought savagely from the
clang Of the gong TO the finish OF the third
round.
After the ripple Of excitement early In
the night caused by the arrest OF several
clsb officials and two fighters. KID Fa-
bian and Young Conners, the hve hundred
members" OF the club settled back in
their chairs to be entertained by the
fghting members of the club
First OF the bouts were dull and listless
and the majority OF the crowd had TO
pinch themselves to keep awake To see
the final between Adler and Dougherty.
This proved TO be a give and take affair
and amply repaid the club members for
remaining to see the wind-up.
Both Adler and Dougherty punched,
smashed and upper-cut each other till
they were exhausted They were com
pletely worn out at the end OF the third
round and a draw" was the decision OF
the spectators.
Adler injured his arm in the first round.
But for this he might have had the better
of the fight.
kid" Fabian and Young Connors went
the limit with honors even. The bout be-
tween Jack Schaffer and Pete Sweeney
was stopped at the end Of the first round
because both had that tired feeling and
refused TO punch hard enough to bring the
color to their cheeks.
Willie Schoomaker and Jack Bonesan
were glad when the gong rang on the
third round and were content with a
draw. Jack Asher and Eddie Bonser were
willing to shake hands at the end Of
some slow lighting and TO talk over the
division OF the purse.
