The POWER OF A FLOWER
He who eau suppress worldly am
bitlon long enough To walk fourth in
the fields and become intimately ac-
quainted with the flowers, has made
worthy aud fortunate achievement
When he sees them spring up and de-
velop into beauty and make intelli-
gent provisions for the future he sees
theland of God busted with the earth,
and feels himself in touch with that
supreme intelligence undertaking all
CREATION. The evidence before him re-
Dukes atheism and he feels assured
that there is good God.
Oft from the way-side flowers we
pluck light
That throws guiding ray across the
night
Their function, form, and beauty
make us pause
To mediate on duty and Gods laws.
The Golden Rod, the clover, and the
corn
Plunge us in love all over, and we're
born
Again it seems to live the years anew.
And wipe away all remorse tears and
rue.

1t is understood that the United

company, has reduced the price of cleo
trolytic copper below 23c per pound.

reduction in the price of copper. said:
For the last two months We have been
doing practically no business in the

to make a radical reduction n prices.

and considerable development work has
been done on this property. A tunnel
in 500 feet has cut through a large body
of ore and the bore Is being extended on
to cut two other large deposits which
outcrop on the surface. Mr.. Garfield
has been in the district a great number
of years and has great faith. in its fu-
ture.
The Tum Tum group is named after
the lake by that name which is situated
only a short distance away. This group,
as we'll as the Garfield property. Is situ-
ated at the highest point of the Pueblo
range.
The Arizona group, belonging to A.
M. williams and associates. situated
near the Garfield property has great
outcrops Of copper ore. A 600-foot tun-
mel to tap these ore bodies at a depth
of 200 feet is being run at the present
time.
The Joe White group IL another prop
erty that has good surface showings.
The Hot Air group, belonging to Jack
Brady, like the many other claims. has
good surface showings.
Dan La Foy, Britts and Howard and
others have groups of claims that have
good s~howings.
Cooper and Maute have a group of
claims north of the Garfield property
and have one Of the big showings of the
district.

What appears to be one of the largest
copper belts in the world Is the section
extending from the northern boundary
of Humboldt county for twenty-five
miles nto Oregon. This large mineral
area commences near DEMO and follows
the course Of the Pueblo mountains.
Besides having great length the copper
belt Is over ten miles wide.
A. Ludin, who arrived in Winnemucca
from DEMO a few days age. brought In
a large lot of samples Of copper ore
which he will take East with him to
place on exhibition. The samples all
show a good percentage in the red metal.
besides carrying fair values In gold and
silver.
On the Markle and Furgeson group
three men are at work on a twelve-foot
ledge of copper ore, this being one OF
the best showing in the district.
On the Viking group, owned by A. ".
williams and associates, seven men are
at work developing the property. The
principal work going on at the present
time is a tunnel which is in 375 feet.
This tunnel is being run to crosscut the
large mineral belt. which shows i'm
mense bodies of ore on the surface.
Besides the long tunnel which is being
run, the property has been explored by
numerous pits and cuts. showing that
the copper ore covers a large area OF
territory. Mr.. Williams and associates
have a large number Of claims in the
group and expect to do a large amount
of development work.
The group belonging to the Thomp-
son brothers has a good showing and q
crosscut tunnel which is being run is In
$50 feet.
On the Mohawk group. belonging to
William McMasters, there has not been
very much development work done. but
the property has big showings of ore on
the surface.
