OF the company Is held. This meet.
Ing viii take place early In January.
Mr.. Rose was asked II there is a
possibility of the resumption of work
at the mines within a short time.
I'VE will resume work again at
the mines when copper advances two
cents more per pound" Mr.. Rose re-
marked. I'VE can ship copper at a
reasonable profit at Is cents per
pound and as soon as the price ad-
vanees to that Figure we will work
our properties again"
Conditions throughout the east are
growing better, Mr.. Rose remarked,
and he is of the opinion that 1t will
be but a short time until matters
again become normal. He is strong
ly OF the opinion that the copper mar
ket will continue to grow better and
that the price OF the metal will adj
vance steadily until it reaches a fig
ure at which the mining companies
can take out their ore at q fair
profit

ARIZONA GOLD AND SILVER.

The production of both gold and sill
yer in Arizona in 1906 was in excess
of that of 1905. according to the sta
tistfcs collected by the United States
geological survey.
The gold production amounted TO ST.
964,6S3, an increase of S165, 469. Some
what less than one-half Of this produc-
ton came from Yavapai county, which
includes the Prescott mining region.
Mohaye. Cochise and Yuma counties
come next, none of the remaining coun-
ties reaching the hundred thousand
dollar mark. In Mohave and Yuma
counties the larger part CT the gold is
derived from the silicous ores, while
in Cochise five-sixths Of the gold is
derived from copper and lead ores.
In Yavapai county somewhat more
than one-fourth is derived from sill
cious ores, the remainder from copper
ere. For the state as a whole, very
nearly the same amounts of gold are
derived from siiicious ores and brown
copper ores. The placer production
approximates $4,000, derived partly
from dry washings. on the whole the
mining industry experienced a success
full year. The mining Of silicious ores
yielded less than In 1905, but there
was an increase from copper ores and
also from lead ores. Unless fne pro
duction of silicious ores greatly in
creases there is reason to expect a
small decline Of the gold production in
1907.
Silver was produced in Arizona to
the amount of 3,026, 43S fine ounces, an
increase of A20,72G ounces. Cochise
county leads. but is closely followed
by Yavapai. each producing zoo coo
ounces. Next follows ella, with 1I0,
09S ounces. and Graham with 107.045
ounces. The great copper mines at
Clifton and Globe furnish a large part
of the silver output In Graham and
ella counties. The Cochise county
product is almost eyeuely distributed
between the copper ores Of Bisbee and
the lead ores OF Tombstone and other
camps. Silicious ores contribute also
a large amount Of silver recovered in
Yavapsi county. As the silver In .Ari-
IONA Is predomfnantly derived from
ton of fne copper output for 1907 will
copper ores. It is likely that a reduc-
adversely affect the output OF silver.

In ancient Ireland women always
went to war and fought in the front
There were also many professional fe-
male warriors or champions. such as
Etsine. Aife, Brefuc and Ness (mother

whom, like Medb or Naive, the war
like queen of Connaught, were also

IMPORTANT GOLD
STRIKE NEAR YUMA
Good Values In yellow Metal
Found-DeveIopmeht Work
Being Rushed.

YUMA, Dec. 26.-The excitement
felt among stockholders of the
Thumb Butte when Jack Hoffman
sent a Mexican down with ore sam
pies running from So TO $40 a ton
had good grounds for its inspiration.
]. Porter Moffett, president, and A.
B. Ming, secretary of the company,
arrived at 1 o'clock yesterday morn
ing on the tender of an engine from
the mines and will return to camp to-
morrow morning with fresh supplies.
The new strike is in quartz vein mat
ter in the Mystery shaft and is not
in any shape to tell much about It.
What they have is a pay strike or.
more properly speaking, number of
small stringers of tais rich quartz
which horns in a fashion that would
indicate that it will run several dol
lars a pound.
They are down only seventy-two
feet and it probably would be absurd
to crosscut or drift with these string
ers until they go to a greater depth.
With windlass they can go ten feet
deeper and their future work will
depend on developments as they pro
coed. By rights they ought to In
stall hoist and go zee feet. They
have 10000 shares of stock with
agents under time contract which
cannot be withdrawn and this win
more than pay for hoist.
When the gold horned from three
ounces of ore few nights ago was
exhibited at the Plantation party
CT Mexicans with an arastra started
to the mine to try TO get to mill the
dump on the shares Messrs. Ming
and Moffett caught the first train
out to Dome. had team in readiness
there and beat the Mexicans to the
camp by several hours.
The stringers run norta from the
shaft and would remain on the
Thumb Butte claims If they extended
for mile. Supt. Hoffman says it is
a fine prospect. He is handicapped
with only windlass at the depth to
which they have gone, but hopes to
go down another ten feet tdis week.
