through GAG SA1VpeaOu " SYSTEM
for Identification Of y. s. Soldiers
and Sailors.
A few weeks ago Inspector
Mclaughlin of the New York City De
tective Bureau received remarkable
evidence of the value of thumb-print
identification. A letter was brought
70 him through the malls from London
containing the picture and record of
a noted criminal whose thumb-print,
with his name and description, was
sent to London to test the efficiency
of this new method of recording dis
tinguishing marks of criminals BY
means of the thumb-print alone the
English police identified the criminal
captured by the New York police,
whose record In England includes eight
imprisonments on charges of larceny.
The prisoner was caught by Inspector
Mclaughlin in the corridor of the
Waldorf-A Hotel in April There
were no charges against him in this
country at the time, but the Inspector
decided that his captive was an En-
glish 'crook" 1t was found thattwo
patrons of the hotel had been robbed
and the prisoner was detained for q
luufOuSu lnNtotlSuLtOH VI LIS case.
Meanwhile the Inspector sent the
thumb-print to London and the reply
brought a photograph of the 'crook"
and duplicate photograph of his
thumb-print and his record.
THE BERTILLoN SYSTEM.
For some time the criminal bureaus
of prominent cities have been using
the Bertillon measurement system
which also includes making two pho
tographs of the suspicious character,
but the French system and photo
graphy have fallen short in many
cases, as a scheming criminal can
adopt various subterfuges to cheat the
law, but there is no way Of changing
the character of his thumb-print, for
there are no two people whose thumbs
are exactly alike, and each person has
his own individual thumb-print whose
character remains the same from the
day of birth to the end

ODD WEDDING SPEECHES.
A Number That Were Delivered in
Dumb Show and Some That
Were Sung.

The recent wedding in New York at
which the bridesmaids were representa-
tive of six nationalities, and each felici-
tated the bride in the language OF her
own country, was an odd affair, but
probably not so well received as the
speech of a young Englishman who was
called upon to propose the toast, THE
Bridesmaids" Apprised of his ordeal
in advance he had devised an escape, and
with the single statement that silence
was golden he brought from his pocket
set of gold bangles, which he bestowed
upon the attendants of the bride.
At a wedding feast at Dol, in Nor
mandy, the demand for speech result
ed in the production of guitar, upon
which the speaker accompanied himself,
while he chanted the praises Of the bride.
Had he stopped there all would have
been well, but he changed to a praise Of
his store, and the guests threw him out
Of the house.
Doubtless a similar fate should have
befallen the sharpshooter who wrote the
name of the bride upon the wall with
pistol bullets, to the serious damage of
the wall paper. Almost as odd was the
performance Of German music hall
performer. who, when called upon for
entertainment, mounted the table upon
his hands and balanced himself upon
glasses, cups and other furnishings.

cHILpREN,s BILL oF FARE.
Curious Table Which Was Furnished
by Woman School Inspector
Of London.

The decision Of the board OF educa-
ton that children under five ought not
to be sent to school is on the safe side,
although much adverse criticism has
been poured upon it, says the Church
Eclectic. BY way of answer to these
critics the board has issued volume
containing memorandum by their
chief inspector OF elementary schools,
and reports by Ave women inspectors
who had been instructed to inquire in
to the whole matter. The chief inspec-
tors summary verdict is that there is
no intellectual advantage from school
instruction under Ave." and that un-
suitable rather than insufficient feed
ing is responsible for sickly chill
dren." With reference to this latter
point there is curious table furnished
by one of the women inspectors, Civ
ing the choice of 46 children who
were asked what they would buy for
dinner If provided. with penny and
told to purchase it themselves.
Thirteen chose fish and potatoes;
FIVE, fish only: five, potatoes only; two,
peas and potatoes; three, pease pud-
ding; five, soup; two, meat and pota-
toes; four, pudding; one, Christmas
pudding; one, apple pie; one, jam
roll; one, jam tart; one, rice, one,
cheese; one, apples.
Pickles and even raw onions figure
largely in the diet OF the slum chill
dren Of London, and for this the ig-
norance of the mothers is clearly to
blame.
} At present many parents seem to
need education far more even than
the children.

COPPER FIGURES
 MAKE INTERESTING READING

With the production of the first six months of the year on which to base ones calculations a number of esti mates have already been made of the approximate copper output of Arizona for this year. It appears from the in formation available that 100000, ,00C pounds of copper will probably be pro duced, this estimate being obtained from monthly output reports of the various mines and districts as follows
 Bisbee district, 12,5O0,OOO pounds United erde, S,OOO,OOO pounds; Arizo na Copper Co, 5000, ,OOo pounds; Globe district, exclusive of Mexican ores 2.500, 600 pounds; Detroit Copper Co.,, 1,750,000 pounds; Shannon, 1,250,00O Silver Bell. 500,000 pounds; Arizona Smelling Co.,, 100000 pouIsE.
 It is probable that some of these es- inmates are low, as the June output of the Old Dominion plant at Globe is over 3,000,000 pounds. The output of the Copper Queen for June was just about S,000,000. The new 200-ton smelter at Helvetia which will doubt less add to the grand total for the territory.

MT. Nit chell insists that the company has worked from the first under the han dicap of too small a capitalization for the size of the property. Fully sew enty-fiye per cent of the $1,000,000 bonds issued by the La Dicha and Pa cific Railroad company have been sub scribed by stockholders of the Nit chell Mining company and the bal ance was taken up in Wall street. The bonds bear six per cent interest and are convertible within three years into stock of the Mitchell Mining com pany at par, with bonus of fifty per cent.
 La Dicha is a camp that has at tracted a great deal of attention from mining men of late. Reports of won derful richness have reached here with such frequency and persistence that it has created stir in mining circles.

Weekly Resume of Mining News From Oldest Copper :.
 Field in Arizona.
Cooper Era.l

Three shifts are now employed in the Chase Creek company's prop cTty. The big tunnel has now been driven HOO feet, and Is being pushed aE the rate of 50 feet per month. Su, perintendent Stevens reports that the whole face of the tunnel is in sulphur, iron and copper, and he realizes that he is on the verge of important dis coveries. The property is looking bet
 ter now than it ever did in its past history. The ground is now so hard
 that it does not require timbering, which is quite a saving to the con- papy. The company has a sufficient amount of work done to secure pat ents on more than half it's holdings.
 The claims were surveyed during the present summer, and will be patented during the coming year.
 Shipments were commenced last week from the Ash Peak mines to the Shannon smelter. It is expected that between four and five hundred tons monthly will be shipped to the shannon. The value of the ore is in the silver it contains, though its principal value to the smelter is for the silica it carries. being crushed and used for converter lining. The company is now in position to pro- duce a much larger homage than that taken by the shannon, hence it is likely that shipment will be made to Douglas, where silica is also i'll demand. being shipped in from Globe. The Ash Peak company is now in a position to develop it's property from the income derived from ore ship |ments. It is also likely that the company will soon commence the erection of a cyanide plant, whereby it will be able to treat all of its low grade ores without the expense of shipping. The company has been op- erating several years and has we'll developed property, and is pushing exploration work as fast as possible. In addition to its low grade ores it also has a mine which is producing ore that will average from $40 to s400 per ton in silver.
 Ambrose Burke. who is perhaps more largely interested in property in the Copper Mountain district than any other individual in the district, was down from his camp this week, and brings some encouraging reports from that section of, the camp. He is kept busy the entire year with a small force of men on assessment work on his own claims. or on claims in which he is largely interested. He reports that section of the camp as livening up materially since the ad- vsnt of the Gold Belt Development company into the district.

Best of the Coppers Selling Too Low Greene Copper Fight
 Won by Colonel Greene

Last week the report was circulated
 freely here and in New York that Colonel Greene had taken to himself certain lands on which he had pre- viously allowed an option by the Greene Consolidated to expire and had then traded these lands with the Can
 anea Central company for stock for his own account. This report made
 it appear that Colonel Greene was de- Ifrauding Greene Consolidated stock
 holders. In view of tine actual facts of the case. it seems to me that the local news bureau which has appar- ently acted as the press agent of the
 bear clique in Greene stock, and which
 published the rumor referred to, and
 also one that the company's product had dropped to 2,500,000 pounds in
 the month of July, now owes an apol- ogy to Colonel Greene as well as to
 the stockholders of the Greene Con- solidated company, and to it's own
 subscribers, who purchase the publi-
 cation with the supposition that they
 are buying reliable and unbiased news. Colonel Greene has unquestionably won the big fight that has been made against his management of the Greene Consolidated company. The stock
 holders will stand by him in the fu-
 ture, as it will be perfectly apparent
 to them now that he is ambitious to
 make Greene Consolidated a great property of tremendous earning ca- pacity. The bear party, which is still
 short on big lot of Greene Consoli- dated stock, and which has been large
 ly responsible for the misleading re- ports circulated. is now planning, understand, to have an old lawsuit affecting the ownership of the Cobre Grande ore body reopened. The bears evidently think that this will cause selling of the stock and enable them to cover their contracts at lower prices. It can be said on excellent authority, however, that new interests with large financial resources have been heavy buyers of Greene Consoii- dated recently; and, taking all the factors into consideration. it seems 10 me that the stock is in a stronger po- sition now than 1t ever has been pre- viously
 The July production of Greene Con- |solidated was 4,060,O00 pounds of cop
 per, and there was a 100 per cent
 Increase in the recovery of silver val ues. While in MeXco. President Greene acquired 14,000 acres of ad- ditional mineral lands for the con- pany, which is believed to possess great value. Greene directors will meet next Wednesday for dividend action. It is quite probable that the stock may be put on a 50 cents per share quarterly, for the present, un- til an opportunity has been given to fully recover from the effect of the recent strike and riot. Regardless of the dividends paid, however, the re- cent developments in connection with this company should cause the stock to advance to as high prices, at least, as it has ever sold in the past. If there ever was doubt about the com panys future it has now been re- moved.

LA pIcHA MINES.

The Mitchell brothers and their Cal ifornia associates, who operate the mines of La Dicha Mining and Smelt ing company in Guerrero, report a profit for the concern for less than six months steady work of $237, ,904 This result was arrived at by figuring the price of copper at fl cents at the mine.
 George Mitchell, president of the company, reports that the ayerage coprer ro If IT treated was eight cent and the cost of pro ducing copper matte has not been over three and one-quarter cents. The cost of converting the matte into copper he estimates at one-half cent per pound. The balance sheet of the operating company shows a prop erty account of s590,317 and other as sets of $271, 1,421.
 Among the new improvements pro jected by the company is 50x15 5t furnace and another converter stand One stand has just been completed and placed in operation. When the
