l struction being done, but as before
 stated, these are about all of small | dimension.
 l One might inquire regarding the la ] Dor conditions with reference to the building work Good mechanics in
 various lines are in demand, yet there seems to be a sufficient number of workmen on the ground, and there is no shortage of labor contemplated. Wages are good and there seems to be general satisfaction where the right thing is done, by both the employe and employer.
 Globe is a healthful place. and prob ably the best situated mining town of the size, in Arizona. The water is ex- cellent. Globe has been twice incorpn- rated and as often disincorporated. As an incorporated town, there would be organization that could effect many needed reforms. A thing now badly needed is a sewerage system.
 Globe, of course is primarily min ing town and has little else craE q general mining town atmosphere about it's life and business.
 Without the grounds of the OiG Do minion, the mines attracting the most attention arc those of the Arizona Commercial Copper Co, the Copper Hill mine, about three miles northeast, and the Black Hawk mile further out from the Copper Hill They now have 125 men at work in the mines, and 250 men at work on the construc- ton of a railroad from the mines to the O. D. smeIter, and this connecting with the road to Globe. The present force is working on the grading. The steel and ties have not arriv- ed. The principal use of the road is for the shipping of the ores. A gr Hat deal of ore has been shipped already but the cost is much greater than it will be with a railroad, and when completed there will be an increased force put into the mine. 4 depth oi SnO feet has been attained in the Copper Hill and 500 feet in the Black Hawk. The ore bodies proved up are satisfy ing. and the mines will doubtless come into the class of larger produces cf Arizona. A fine strike of F pec cent. carbonate has been encountered at the bottom of the Black Hawk Inc large lodes of ore in these mines av- craze four to five per cent. copper ard 30 to 40 per cent. iron. ..
 It is expected that work is soon to| be started on the promising property| of the Apache Consolidated Copper CO. located nine miles northeast of Globe It is an oxide of iron carrying to per cent copper at the present depth.

In the past ten months about 2O,OOO tons have been shipped by wagon to the O. D.. smelter It all averaged F per cent. copper.
 P. J. Cole. who was once mayor of Phoenix. is principal owner in a fine property located 20 miles south of Globe It is bonded and leased to the Globe Western Mining Go. There are twenty men at work. They have three feet of high grade sulphide at the bottom that gives the company much encouragement. Representatives are in Denver purchasing a 1OO-ton con- centrating plant. Near Coles proper ty are the Gibson mines, which al- ready have netted their owners one fourth Of d million dollars. A depth of 400 feet, on high grade chalc ,py1ite. has been reached
