WOLVERINE q ARIZONA

Hope lives eternal, and were this not true many mines now active would not have been found for rears to come.
 It may be that Wolverine & Arizona may yet succeed. While there are very few of the original officer and directors who have held their shares through the long time the property has been undergoing search, yet there are a very few who have maintained that ore would be found and who have held on to their possessions stubborn ly. One of these Is copper country man who says he will stick If every one else lets go, says the Mining Ca zette. .-ii'sl Si EQa
 few days ago the diamond drill encountered a little ore of better grade than has thus far been shown. While the seam may not have been large 1t is a good indication as small seams often lead to big deposits in the Bisbee camp. Superintendent Roberts has sent the Calumet office of the com panv the following letter which tells of the finding of the drill:
 At depth of 40 feet We encoun- tered with the diamond drill a soft

 We were able 10 obtain only a small piece of core from the ten feet of soft ground. This assayed 5.S per cent copper.

We will now have to case the hole downward from depth of 357 feet to the bot tom. at f24 1-2 feet, in order to get a return flow of water to wash up the sludge from the drilllngs.

NEW SHAFT AT
 THE NORTH BUTTE Statement Made at Meeting h. diate Sleady Advancement of Resources in Property

At the meeting Of the directors of the North Butte when the g dividend was declared during the past week 1t was announced that a new shaft would be sunk. and some other very interest ing statements concerning the devel- opment of the property came out. The development work on all three veins in which ore bodies have been found on the North Butte property has hown enormous tonnage of ore re- serves. so that the directors deem 1t advisable to immediately proceed with the work of providing another outlet.
 For this purpose a new shaft will be sunk on the Berlin claim. The pro posed shaft will be located with ref erence to exploring the veins on the undeyeioped properties that the com pany owns. These veins and others to be developed give promise of being large and of the important permanent vein system in the camp.
 The new shaft will be equipped with the most modern machinery and so much of the earnings as may be nee essary will be appropriated to this new work.
 At the present time North Butte has but one shaft, from which it Is hoist ing between HOO and l200 tons of ore per day. Another shaft Is necessary before any very large expension can take place in the ore tonnage. No confidence is violated by the state ment that the company has in mind the ultimate treatment of between g. 900 and 5000 tons of ore per day.
 The failure to make the dividend larger than $2 was in order to accu- mulate larger surplus in anticipation of this and other heavy construction charges to be met during the coming year.
 Among other items which will call for construction funds, the Beglin claim, where the new shaft will be To- cated, has been explored by a cross cut running north from the Jessie in- to the Berlin at a depth of 100 feet. While little has been said regarding the Berlin developments, they are of a most important character and we un- derstand have resulted to the complete satisfaction of the North Butte man. apement

 Development has been confined to
 several shafts, the deepest of which
 has reached eighty-five feet, and to numerous open cuts. The main shaft is reported by MT. Mccullough. who is in charge of development, to be all in carbonate and black and red oxide ore. Crosscuts in both directions from the bottom of this shaft show thirty-seven feet of ore, sampling from per cent 10 l5 per cent. cop per. An open cut for 210 feet across the formation shows continuous ore of average commercial grade, with r2w smelling ores in good quantity. About 2000 tons Of shipping grade have been piled upon the various dumps by the former owner. and It was from one of these that the re cent shipment was made.
 MT. Compton and his associates pro- pose to sink at least 300 feet vertical | ly and expect to reach sulphide ores within that depth. A 20-horsepower hoist has just been shipped from here.

The stock that was the most attractive today was Cana nea Central, opening with bid of s2SS7, but this figure failed to bring out any stock at all. and soon the price ran up to ss2. and later sales were reported as high as $33.75.

Gideon Bush.

Gideon Bush.
Another Oakes boy has reached his
majority. On Thanksgiving day,
Gideon Bush passed the twenty-first
milestone, having spent the most of
these years in Oakes. Gideon started
to school when eight years of age and
in 1903 he finished his work in the
schools Of Oakes. In the fall of that
year he passed the teachers examina-
ton, received second grade certificate,
and taught for seven months during the
succeeding winter. The winter of 19O4-5
was spent in the University at Grand
ForSs. He was offered a position as
boolt6eeper at $50 a month but pre-
ferred to spend the time at home. His
first business venture was the running
of the pop factory during 1866 in
partnership with Paul Stanton. Dur
ing this time at home he studied type
writing and last summer took a govern
ment examination as bookkeeper and
clerk, receiving grade of "a per cent.
A few days ago he was offered a
government position in Panama at 500
per month and transportation from
New York. He prefers, however, to
remain in his present position in
Somers, Montana, at somewhat
smaller salary, but much less distance
from home. His friends in Oakes are
glad to know of his success.

Fremont, Sunday night.

Fremont, Sunday night.
Dear Mother: Since Sunday school
time today I've been spending every
moment I could find in reading in the
little book, "His Last Week." The
children are off to bed, and in the last
few minutes have finished reading
the verses which tell about Jesus on the
Cross. Oh, mother, no wonder the
sun hid its light from the earth when
that happened! And to think that all
this misery was borne by him in his
perfection, that we might be saved
from our sins. Tom came in, and found
me in tears; and when he asked me
what was the matter, we both just
sat down and read this lesson together;
and I'll tell you truly, mother, some of
the things we had on our minds as
being great burdens in our family life
just melted away when we caught a
glimpse of the burden Jesus Christ
carried.
Little did the scoffing Jews think that
in one sentence they both offered a
challenge and met it with their own
acknowledgment. Himself he could not
save-and still save others.
But, mother, l guess I wouldn' t make
a good student of theology. l haven't
got much heart to argue how or why
when I read this passage. Only one
thought stays with me through the hours,
and that is-For me! All the cruel hate
and mockery-for me! All the pain of
the scourging and the nails-for me!
All the breaking of his tender heart,
the love spent without return-for me!
There on Calvary the sinless One, dy-
ing that might through him be saved.
And here am I, follower of his, yet
following so far off!
My heart is too full. l can't write
about what it all means to me. AS
never before I've seen my Saviour on
the cross-for me! Till close my eyes
in sleep tonight, I must speak with
him; may do that, for he still pleads,
Father, forgive them; for they know
not what they do"
Your loving daughter,
Martha.

When he landed here he was worth

The Hill Awards.

Orange Judd Farmer: President Hill
has long been a persistent advocate Of
better farming. He has both practiced
and preached the gospel Of more live
stock in connection with grain farming.
His address before the Minneapolis
state fair this fall was along these
lines, and was one of the ablest ex-
hibits ever made of the necessity for
and the profitableness Of diversified
agriculture and more intensive farm
ing.
Mr.. Hill still further proved his faith
by last spring offering liberal prizes in
each congressional district of Mimi
esota and the Dakotas to those COM
petitors who keep the best managed
and best titled farms. The only condi-
tion was that each contestant should
not only keep at least 20 head of cattle,
but also should keep at least 20 head of
sheep, or at least that many swine.
Mr.. Hills idea was that the methods
and results on such farms when as
certained by an expert and presented
to the farmers of the west, should be
an object lesson that progressive
farmers would generally heed. The
management Of the contest was placed
in the hands of Orange Judd Farmer as
the agency best qualified to handle the
affair. Farmers were not called upon
to make any special reports, there was
no bookkeeping and neither inducement
nor opportunity to evade the rules,
because there were no rules. Each
farm entered for the prizes which had
the necessary amount of live stock to
entitle it to compete, was personally
visited and thoroughly studied by our
northwestern editor, cereal expert and
live stock authority, Prof. Thomas
Shaw of St. Paul, and he was accom-
panied by T.. A. Hoverstad as Mr..
Hills special representative.
