The operations at the Lulu mine,
which. as stated in the foregoing. IS
located near the Horn Silver property,
have been watched with a great deal OF
interest during the year This con-
Germ. the Lulu Mining company, has
been conducting very energetic cam

opening of some good ore bodies, show
ing shipping values. Following these
disclosures, the management installed
a new steam hosting plant and inaugu-
rated a plan of work along broader
lines. The ore was encountered on the
$50 level, and undoubtedly is an exten-
sion of the original Horn Silver vein.
In addition to doing development and
blocking out ore for future extraction.
the Lulu company is driving to connect
with the workings of the Horn Silver
mine, thus perfeeting the mine yentila-
ton system, as well as a matter Of

month some ore has been coming to
market and Manager William Hatfield
1: authority for the statement that reg
ular shipments could be maintained
Before spring rolls around again the
old upper and the new lower tunnel
workings should be connected and the
property should be made to produce
even better than it did in the early his
tory of the mine, which has record
for having produced many hundreds OF
thousands of dollars.
An Important Deal.
One of the most important deals Of
the year in Alta is that by which the
South Columbus and Alta-Quiney prop
critics have been consolidated and
brought under one management and in
one company, the South Columbus Com
solidated- These mines adjoin the Coz
lumbus Consolidated on the south. and
the management of the big company is
now in charge of the other. A treasury
Of 100000 has been provided for the de-
velopment of the consolidated proper
ties, and machine drills are now being
employed in opening up the ore-bearing
assures that had been previously cut
In the tunnels of the old companies.
Manager Tony jacobson declares that
he will have the property in the regu-
lar producing and shipping list during
the winter and spring. Thousands of
feet of work has already been per-
formed and the workings are now
stripping the edges of the country in
which the greater deposits of silver
and gold, copper and lead ores have
their chief abiding piece.
West Columbus Affairs.

prospecting with a view to determining
the best methods of opening the terri
tory and after finally persuading A. o.
jacobson, superintendent of the Column
bus Consolidated to accept the manage
ment, the running of a long tunnel was
decided upon. Manager jacobson at
once began the construction of build
tngs for the accommodation of the force
and the tunnel is now being crowded
in as fast as possible This tunnel is
not only designed by the management
TO open the West Columbus company's
mines, but it is also being run with a
view of eventually interesting other
valuable propositions bordering its
course between the Little Cottonwood
and American Fork slices of the dis
trict, and Will eventually be extended
clear through the mountain This will
afford drainage and economical oper-
ating facilities To several companies
and make it possible for them to land
their ores at q handy point for ship
ment down the canyon TO the valley

There are four shafts on the prop

The main shaft is nov more rnan 900

All of the machinery which has been

Starts Mining.
Mr.. Hodson after breaking home ties
to seek his fortune in the great un-
known outside the, family fireplace,
struck out for Tintic. where he en-
gagged in the mining business and soon
became familiar with all that is nec-s-
sary in IL successful mining operation
He handled several properties during
the three wears in which he was en-
gagged in mining in the district. This
was the beginning of his career as n
successful mining operator and he has
kept the pace up with increasing speed
ever since.
Bingham was the next move on the
mining checker board for the young CD
orator and he associated himself with
the Wall concentrating plant. which
did one of the largest custom bus
iBesses in this part of the country.
He acquired property here and ham
died it to such good advantage that he
was in a position TO branch out on a
larger scale soon afterward. and he
made for Idaho. Here ne handled sew
eral properties with success. One Of
them was the Lincoln mine, of which he
was the general manager. During his
management of the property he erecte!
the best mill on the property ami
equipped it with all the modern cleo
trical eonrivanccs.
Goes to Goldfield.
With the first blush of the GoIdneId
fever AR Hodson set out for the new
country and at once got into the heart
OF the rich fields. When the rich float
was found in the Fairview district,
early in February of last year, he start
ed out with many others to locate the
mother lode, He outdistanced his COM
petitors here, as he has been doing
since he left the family circle at Coal
vile. and located his townsite on it.
Tt is now one of the best mines in the
state, and that is saying a good deaf
for the size Of the fortune which Mr..
Hodson has been able to accumulate in
the comparatively short time in which
he has been in the mining business. If
he keeps on at the rate he is going,
there is no telling where the end of the
ciphers on his bank balance viii stop.
MIR. Morgan and Mr.. Rockefelled may
have to look to their laurels if HodsOn
continues at the pace he has been for
the past few months.
Mr.. Hodson is interested in several
other mining companies both in this
state and in Nevada. He is one of the
Youngest of the successful mining men
in this part OF the country and bids
fair to be at the top of the heap before
ne begins to take to the simple life.

UTAH COPPER COMPANY.
Magnitude of New Plant Gives Good
Idea of Camps Resources.


With the advent of the wondrous ac-
tivity which has come into the mining
operations of the country during the
past few years has come the demand
for more room and bigger plants to
handle the ore taken from the mines
of the camps in this district. The
smelters which have heretofore been in
position to take care of ali the ore
which has come out of the mines found
themselves crowded in the work some
time ago, but the managers in the
mining industry, unlike their brother
executives of the railroads, did not sit
supinely by and beWail the car short
age or ask for an investigation or even
present an excuse. They took off
the facilities fit the requirements of
the camp and the result is the erection
of another big smelter at Garfield by
the Utah Copper company In connec-
These two companies will have the use
of the big Garfield plant. which is one
Of the finest in the country and viii
have few rivals when it is completed.
A detailed description of the plant
viii give some idea of the magnitude of
the enterprise which these two mining
companies are carrying on and it is at
the same time an indication of the
resources of the camp for many years
to come.
Description of Plant.
The plant is designed for a capacity
of 5000 tons of ore per day
The general dimensions of the main
milling plant are coo feet by sos feet
This dimension includes what is known
as two sections. of 5000 tons capacity
each, both of which sections are ex-
actly similar.
To serve the two sections, there is
one receiving bin, in which ore will
be dumped from the mine. having ca
pacity of $4,000 tons, and one bin for
crushed ore, having a capacity of a.
900 tons; q total of &C, 0OC tons storage.
The mill, in itself, is divided generally
into three departments; coarse crush
ing, fine crushing and concentrating.
Each section has its own coarse crush
ing department, each department con-
tanning two No. 71s gyratory crushers
having a capacity Of 100 tons an hour
for each crusher. OF 400 tons an hour
total In each department are two
"a by 20 inch roughing rolls. In these
coarse crushing departments the ore is
crushed dry to three-quarters inch
size. General dimensions of these two
coarse crushing departments is sixty
feet square.
