COINED A BIG WORD.
Little One Wanted to Pick tho "Un.
derchiIdrenabie" Flowers.

When the first little granddaughter
was big enough to want to pick the
garden flowers, the grandparents tried
every guileful means to save their pet
posies from devastation. A truce was
reached when 1t was agreed that Har-
riet should let the garden plants alone
and pick only "children's flowers" a
descriptive name bestowed at once
alike on dandelions, buttercups,
daisies and clovers. After this there
was peace in the family. One day
Katherine, the newest granddaughter,
was contentedly pulling grasses while
grandmother shipped off blossoms
from the forget-me-nots. Katherine
remembered that fresh flowers had
not been gathered for the dinner ta-
BILE. She ran over to grandmother and
promptly coined one of the longest
words a four-year-old ever used.
GRANDMOTHER" she begged, cant
pick the underchildrenable flowers
for dinner?"

MEETS DEATH AT PIOCHE.
Il. Il. Hennifer is Killed While Trying
to Board n Cage.

A distressing accident occurred
Tuesday evening last when e. e.
Hennifer, miner employed by the
Nevada-Utah corporation, was in
stantly killed by being caught be-
tween the cage and timbers in the
No. / shaft, says the Phoebe Re-
cord. 1t seems that Hennifer, with
Messrs. Dean, Mann and Bolen, were
working on the bottom level. The
shaft foreman told Hennifer to get
on the cage and go up the shaft and
repair a leak in the air pipe. 1t is
the usual custom in the mine for the
men to get on the cage before ring
ing, but in this instance it was not
done. Hennifer was standing on a
block of wood and evidently thought
he was on the cage. He rang the
bell and when the cage started re
discovered his mistake and made an
effort to board the cage while it was
in motion, with the result that his
head was caught between the cage
and a set of timbers, killing him in
stantly. His neck was broken and
one side of his head crushed.
The deceased leaves wife and
seven children, who are residing in
Stockton, Utah, with the exception of
the eldest son, who was here at the
time of the accident. The remains
We're shipped Wednesday morning to
Salt Lake, where interment took
place.

Closing Down Utah SmeIt-
ers Because of Liti9a-
ton Means Much Loss.
NOT WITHOUT HOPE
For the future...Salt Lake Writer
Points Out Situation May be
Tided Over-.-A. 5. & R. Co.

The Salt Lake Tribune says: AS
one looks back in history with ad-
miration for the splendor and power
of the cities of Babylon and Nineveh,
and with astonishment that they have
utterly persisted from the face of the
back to the past few months of pan
icky conditions following the most
wonderful era of prosperity this
country ever experienced. How this
unparalleled prosperity could drop so
suddenly to present conditions is
something that the average man can
not understand. Conditions now are
bad enough, and each day brings with
it some new item to bear the situa-
ton and make men worry. The an
nouncement that the United States
Smelling, Refining & Mining COM
pany is making preparations to close
its smelter cast additional gloom over
this city Friday, and practically ev-
cry one was of the opinion that we
are to experience a very trying win
ter.
But the situation from a smelling
standpoint is not as black as fear has
painted it; there is abundant reason
for optimistic opinions and convic
lions, and they should be emphasized.
In case the United States smelter and
the Utah Consolidated plant botn
join the Bingham Consolidated in it's
present condition of idleness. Utah
still has the American Smelling &
Refining company to rely on, the
company having made it's peace with
the farmers as far as the Murray
plant is concerned. While such lin
tied conditions naturally will lessen
materially the reduction of outside
ores in the Salt Lake valley, the
mines of Utah still will have an am
pie outlet for their ores.
The large Garfield smelter of the
American Smelling e Refining COM
pany will take care of the great cop
per producers of Utah, these being
the Utah Copper company, the Boston
Consolidated, the Newhouse or Gao
tus, probably the Ohio Copper COM
pany and others scattered through
the state, until such time as other
smelters can be erected according to
plans now well under way. The Muir
ray smelter of the American COM
pany is a general custom plant, with
a capacity of 1900 tons a day. and
as soon as the money market be-
comes settled in normal channels this
Murray smelter can take care of all
the silver-lead ores of Utah, as well
as the so-called dry or quartz ores.
1t is also believed by students of
the situation that the United States
company will be enabled by a modifi-
cation of the decree of the court to
operate it's lead furnaces, as it al
ready has installed at an expense of
not less than $150,000 complete
playhouse system, which is said to
exclude absolutely the emission of
lead and arsenic particles from the

smokestaeks, thereby obyiating any
chances of injury TO the farms and
stock of the farmers in this valley.
1t is obvious that, by means of the
large smelling facilities the Ameri
can Smelling e Refining company
has installed in or around Salt Lake
City,, most if not all the ores pro-
duced in the mines of Utah can be
smelted in the future as they have
been in the past. The Utah Consoli
dated company, in the same category,
as far as the law suit is concerned,
as the Unietd States company, OPP
Grated it's large smelter exclusively
for it's own ores. The Bingham Con-
solidated plant, now practically cold,
operated largely on the ores from its
own mines, and the closing down of
the Utah Consolidated plants and the
Bingham Consolidated plants will be
of little effect as far as the general
producers of ores are concerned.
And account should not be lost of
the fact that both the Bingham Con-
solidated (Heinze) and the Utah
Consolidated companies are planning
to erect new shelters on the shares
of Great Sa. Lake. Plans in the
former case are already lnlSHeu, anu
plans in the latter case will be fin
ished before Christmas. Nothing can
prevent these plants from completion
just as soon as the money situation is
sufficiently adjusted to give conf
dence a chance to raise its head in
the land. No one cognizant of the
great resources in the Utah Consol-
idated properties at Bingham, and of
the many years of usefulness ahead
of this organization, can doubt the
desire of the officials of the company
to properly handle their ores. And
no one realizing the great demand
for smelling facilities from Utah and
states other than Utah, and tributary
to Utah smelling plants, doubts the
wisdom of the Heinze custom smelter
plans.

mining public. Reports coming in
from this property of late have been
of a most gratifying character and
have been duly emphasized by
the exhibit of rich gold rock made
during the past few days by Manager
G. w. Watts, who has been in Salt
Lake to confer with his associates
The property is responding splendidly
wherever work is being done, Mr..
Watts reports, and in that portion of
the ground being operated by the
company the Wine is rapidly APP
preaching the sulphide zone, where it
is anticipated, ore carrying the SEN
sational values Characteristic of some
other mines in the district that are
more extensively developed. In the
meantime, some extensive bodies of
mill ore are being developed in this
particular portion of the mine.
Ten leases are working on one of
the Eclipse companys claims. All of
them are on well defined veins; eight
of them are being pushed vigorously
and on several of them, ore is being
sacked for shipment. The fact that
practical and experienced miners are
willing to work such small lots as
250x350 feet of ground-which is the
size of each lease-and spend their
own money in the development of
them, is a condition which lends much
encouragement to shareholders.
Mr. Bishoff, one of the directors of
the Seven Troughs Mazuma Hills Min
ing company, owning property adjoin-
ing the Eclipse directly on the south,
is in the city with high grade ship
ment of ore. The last lot, it has been
learned, averaged better than $3.50
to the ton in gold and Mr.. Bishoff
expects that the lot now
at the sampler will even show up bet
ter results. Another shipment is
ready and will probably arrive at one
of the valley sampling plants some
time next week. In all probability
the Mazuma Hills will become reg
ular shipper. The company was or
ganized as close corporation and
outside of the small lot sold out of
the treasury right at the beginning,
none of the stock has ever reached
the public. 1t is controlled by a
wealthy syndicate of Colorado mining
men, who cleaned up snug fortunes
in Cripple Greek.

OLDEST GOLD NINE

Frank O'Byrne, one of the pioneer
contractors from Rhyolite, accompa-
MED by his son, Professor j, f.
O'Byrne, returned to camp this week
says the Bullfrog Miner. Mr.. Byrne
and family spent the summer in Colo
RADIO, but will make Salt Lake their
residence in future. Mr. Byrne has
numerous properties and mining in
terests in the district.
The son, who is mining engineer,
was formerly professor of mining at
the University of Georgia at Dahelon-
ega, and consulting engineer for the
Dahelonega Water, Power and Mining
company, operating in that vicinity.
He still retains the latter position
but resigned the former to become
more actively engaged in mining.
The Dahelonega mine is perhaps
the oldest in the United States. The
first double eagles coined were from
Dahelonega gold. They were minted
at Dahelonega and bore the letter
3D. as a mint mark.
