CIRCULATING IN COPPER.

The copper companies seem to bs getting afraid of the speculator, and well they may. That copper has a tremendous future few will dispute;
 ,at it now presents a splendid field - legitimate investment all who are
 uiliar with mining are aware; but t 1t can be injured by fictitious in
 ions of stock, instead of earnest .. r. honest efforts at production, is an
 0lute certainty. Commenting up-
 ,his subject, the Wall Street Jour
 says that the United Metal Selling .-npany has disposed of quite a large -rcentage of the possible production = the Amalgamatcd Copper com Gny's mines. l. can be said that AmaIEamatej interests are scTUtin.Z- ing inquiries very closely in efforts to eliminate speculative purchases as far as possible. With the tendency oa copper upward, the disposition Of cer- tain dealers is 10 acquire large amounts of copper and hold for high CT prices and the AmalgamaJed c9u- lSA4+s III fA t--s z--a't age Of the metal, is seeking to protect customers by keeping copper out of speculative hands.
 It is not only to the advantage of the steady buyers of copper to keep it out of spectators hands, but it is all so greatly to the advantage of the pro jucers. When speculators begin to dip in they retire copper from the steady consuming market in a slump. It is obvious that this will have a very -demoralizing effect on production. It will cause the price of copper to suo- denly slump downward and create ficticious reaction in price. This re- Action will probably catch the produc- ing mines loaded up with copper pro- duced at a higher price cost. and pro suit in disastrous losses, or force them to carry their productions until the market seeks it's level. which may not be for many months. By all means. bona fide mines should fight speculation in copper and exert every effort to keep a constant. steady de- mand, such as now prevails. As long as conditions exist as they now are copper will be a big money maker and the mines by exercising caution. can control. not only the supply. but the demand.

EX-GOVERNOR RECOVERS
 HIS PRETTY LADY LOVE

About eighty men were camped in the valley at wc.G on the Hume. Be tween the lower dam and Wicken- burg eighty-four bodies were found.
 At the headquarters house, under a great cottonwood. Miss Hanlon, now Mrs. Brodie and to whom no compli- ment could do justice, Miss McCarty, domestic, John Milliken, company hostler, and MT.

On the night of the 22nd the two men went down and guaged the river. It was falling. They returned and told the ladies to retire regularly and get substantial rest as they believed the danger to be over. The women and Milliken did so. Red man. however. with the instincts of a tenderfoot, which he was, kept prowl- ing about the building until about 2:30 in the morning when he heard the rumble of doom. Rushing back into the house he uueeremoniously jerked all three of the sIeep.ng people out of bed.
