Changes at Gold Road.

The Gold Road Mining company,
Mohave county, laid off between
seventy-live and eighty men at the
men will be worked in the property
to keep it in shape The hoist will
be kept in operation and the ore
broken in the slopes will be run to
the mill, that plant being kept in
operation by full force. 1t is esti-
mated that enough ore is now broken
in the mine to keep the mill in opera
tion for six months or more.
1t is the intention of the company
to make a complete change in the
machinery, both at the mine and
mill, the present gasoline power be-
ing replaced by electric motors. a
big holster is to be put on the main
shaft and more modern equipment
is to replace the present machinery
at all points. The mill is also to be
replaced by 4 more modern plant and
when all the changes have been made
the mill will have a capacity of ten
lnOuodHu luis OI VI luOulH.E. L HIS
will be more than double the present
capacity of the plant. 1t is also
probable that the ores will be
slimed and that a big gravity filter
will be put in place of the present
pressure filters. BY this arrange
ment a greater saving will be made
at less expense.
The Gold Road mine is one of the
greatest gold mines in the world and
the company has proven its value at
Il depth of 800 feet, where it shows a
great vein of ore, the values of
which are far richer than in any
other part of the mine. The COM
pany is to sink other shafts and up
raises are to be made from the deep
level to the surtace: here they will
be equipped with electric holsters.
Everything in and about the mines
and mill are to be electrIzed, the
power coming from the big plant at
Kingman. When all the changes
are made at mine and mill the output
of the mines will run about 100000
per month.-Kingman Miner.

SHANNON COPPER COMPANY.
Showing Lowest Cost In It's Career,
COincident With Better Ore Bodies.

Notwithstanding the low price al
which the shares of the Shannon
Copper company are selling, in com
mon with the balance of the copper
list, conditions at the mines were
never better.
The new furnace has been installed,
and although maximum production
is not being forced, the smelter is
outputting at the rate of 100000
pounds per month.
The management believes that for
some time to come all excessive con-
struction expenditures have been
completed, and that from now out
the property will show an ability to
mine it's copper and land the same in
New York at an outside cost OF III
cents per pound.
In connection with improvements
IN the operating department, there
has been a marked betterment re-
Gently in the copper contents of the
ore. The concentrating ores have
recently improved from an average
2.5 per cent. TO 80 per cent. The
smelling ores average about per
cent.
The company's finances are also in
good shape. During the past year,
after $3.50, 600 was disbursed in divi-
dends, S265, 900 was added to working
capital.
President Amster says: "The
Shannon mine is looking better than
ever before in its history, and our
plant is in better condition than ever
before to realize the best working re-
suits. Our manager writes US that
he can produce copper at the mine at
not to exceed 10 cents per pound.
sat the present time our cost of
mining, including development work,
will not average above $3.50 per ton,
aud it has been as low as s.. 20 per
ton. Our concentrating costs are
now down to 81 cents per ton, and 1
figure that our total costs, including
charges of every character, will not
exceed $3.50 per ton.
"This is very creditable showing,
and 1 am of the opinion that of all
the copper mines in the country,
ShAnnon's cost per pound is today
lower than the average.
SIN addition to other improve
ments, Shannon is making today d
larger saving of copper from its con-
centrates than ever before, or about
II per cent.
eve have today over 1000 share
holders. 1t is to be regretted that
the splendid condition of the mine,
its plant and its finances, should de-
velop at a time of such hysterical
conditions in the general stock and
metal markets" " - Boston News
Bureau.

Territorial Fair.

Unusual interest exists in various
parts of the territory in regard to
the third annual territorial fair
Der 11th to 10th. Many letters are
received daily at the office sometimes
amounting up in the hundreds and
making all kinds of inquiries and
often offering suggestions that are
decidedly beneficial, but all contain
| the sentiment of co operation that is
so essential to make any public en-
terprise a success. The writer's
seemingly understand without further
explanation that it is their fair, and
SO it is, it belongs as much to one
citizen of the Territory as to another
and belongs to us all individually and
collectively. We can feel proud of
oar achievements in the past and
though satisfactory will be enabled
by experience so obtained to accom-
plish even greater success. No in
dustry that is beneficial to our pro-
ductions has been overlooked. The
dairy interests have been given the
full attention to which they are en-
titled. AS a matter of illustration of
showing how little we know of our
resources how many of the residents
of our territory know that we manu-
facture the Lily Cream? Yet such is
the case and an advertising exhibit
will be given by them consisting of
trained Jersey COW harnessed to d
wagon and driven about the grounds.
Cows being milked by machinery is
another interesting feature that may
be seen at the fair in connection with
the dairy department.
That all may be entertained who
attend the fair, many forms of
amusement will be provided, the
most important being the harness
and running races. There are now
stabbed on the grounds in excess of
one hundred horses which are entered
in the race events, and there are
enough other horses entered which
are yet to arrive to swell the number
above two hundred. This is to be
the largest race meeting held this
year west of the Mississippi. 1t will
be productive of exceptionally fast
time and close finishes. In one event
in addition to others, there are five
horses entered that have been racing
in the Grand Circuit this season.
There are many of those entered
here that have made good records in
the Grand Circuit this year and all
who c)me to the fair will see the
fastest and best horses shown any
WHERE.
Arrangements have been made
this year to have the streets at the
fair grounds sprinkled 81 that there
will not be the usual amount Of dust
Do not miss taking in the greatest
fair ever held in the southwest.

Shift Boss Murdered.

The authorities at Cananea have
under arrest d suspect thought to lie
the murderer of Fred Bonham, who
was assassInated last week. Bonham,
who was shift boss at the Oversight
mine of the Greene-Cananea, was
shot and fatally wounded from am
bush, as he was on his way home from
work. The assassin escaped. Bon
ham and companion were on the way
home from work when 4 man sud-
denly stepped from the shadow at
the roadside, and placed pistol
against Bouham's abdomen, firing
twice. Then he ran, firing two more
shots at BOnham's companion to pre-
vent pursuit and made good his es
cape. Bonham was taken to a hospi-
tai where it was found his intestines
we're pierced fourteen times by balls
He had no chance for recovery and
died the next morning.
Bonham was married and has sew
eral children. He was one of the
most popular men in the camp The
shooting occurred but a short dis
tance from the residence of Mine
Foreman William NJ. Kelly, who was
one of the first to aid the wounded
man.

More Than Enough is Too Much.

To maintain health, d mature man
or woman needs just enough food to

sumption of more food than is neces-

cause of stomach troubles, rheuma-
tism and disorders of the kidneys.
If troubled with indigestion, revise
your diet, let reason and not appetite
