RATHER, IRON CAP
AND BOSTON.ARlZONA
Three Promising Mines That Are to
Help Make the Globe District
Famous.

NJ. ]. Galpin has received a letter
from his son VIII. formerly of Phoe-
nix. but now in charge of the devel-
opment of the Rather mine. five miles
from Globe, and two and a half miles
east of the the Iron Cap. of which the
elder Galpin has charge, or did have
until Ill health brought him back to
Phoenix three months ago. The Rat
tier is known locally in Globe as the
Iron Horse. the Rather company be-
ing formed few months ago by a
group Of Boston capitalists.
a three compartment shaft is being
sunk on the Rather and is now down
fifty-five feet. A steam hoist has been
bought capable OF operation to the
depth of 1900 feet. II is expected it
will be in position and ready for use
by the time the shaft has reached the
100-foot level.
The shaft is being sunk alongside a
Vein that crops twenty feet wide and
which on the surface has returned as
SAYS of 16 per cent copper and 1913
in silver When the 1O0-foot level is
reached a cross-cut will be run
through the vein and the level will be
otherwise opened up if the develop
ment discloses what is exIfcted. The
work is being driven as fast as pos
sible and Mr.. Galpin is trying to DEM
onstrate that he knows how to do
things. being already assured there is
something on the Rather worth do
ing.
NJ. ]. Galpin was asked how work
on the Iron Cap is progressing. that
property being not far from the Old
Dominion and United Globe mines on
the same side of Pinal creek, and the
same ore formations. it is supposed.

been informed that a nice body of ore
had recently been encountered but he
had learned no details yet. However
il is not the o. ID. and L. G.. veins
which it is expected will be developed
in due season. The Iron Cap is down
500 feet and there is about 600 feet
more of work done in crosscuts and
drifts.
Mr.. Galpin is also largely interested
in the Arizona Boston property which
is about twenty miles from Globe and
which is composed Of group of TWEEN
ty-five claims. located around the old
McMillen property. one of the early
producers in the district. That prop
erty itself is owned by other prop
critics but the Arizona Boston people
think they have something just as
good in the extensions. Work is be-
ing done on various of the claims but
no great depth has been attained the
openings being equipped only with
windlasses- However they are taking
out some fine ore and expect to equip
the property with machinery the COM
ing fall. This property is also
financed by Boston people as are the
other two. but they are three differ

New York. July 26.-There was a
marked shrinkage of the speculative
interest in the days stock market
which was distinctly dull. The fault
lay very largely with the Hartman
stocks which dropped out of their po-
sition of activity and strength. Some
part of the depression was excited by
the renewed weakness of the market
activity. This situation was given the
principal credit for the drop in the rate
OF market activity. Some effect Of the
depression was renewed weakness in
Erie and a drop of q in Southern
Railway preferred.
London copper was weak again to-
day but the strength of United States
Steel on the reported breaking of the
strike in the Lake Superior iron mines
was a sustaining factor in the metal
groups. Prices fluctuated with much
uncertainty all day but We're at a

FLORENCE DAVIS SATURDAY.
Elaborate Costumes and Superb Stage
Settings to be Seen With This Pro-
duction At the Academy.

No more appropriate costuming has
been seen on the stage in recent years
than that presented by Florence Da-
Wis In the successful comedy drama,
"A Question of Husbands" The cos
tunes have been selected with a due
and well conceived appreciation of
what may be called the ethics of
dressing. This Is also true of the
stage properties. all of which are
owned by Miss Davis, and provided
especially for her personal purposes.
They are elaborate to a degree 80 far
as relates to their application in the
unthreading Of the plot and they aid
In properly depicting the actual scenes
In such a manner that the scenes
themselves are practically created
into fact.
The acting of Miss Davis, who Is a
handsome woman both on and of the
stage, has been invariably commend
ed. This Is especially the case in "A
Question of Husbands" wherein the
naturalness of her Interpretation is
the greatest charm.
The dressings and stage properties
In the play wherein Miss Davis is the
central figure will be exhibited on the
stage on the evening OF Saturday.
