improvements at the Stanley.

few days ago Superintendent
Wolf of the Stanley mine was visited
by President Brownlee and Treasurer
Cunningham of the Stanley Mines
COMPANY, who made careful inspec-
tion of the company's property, says
the Idaho correspondent of the Daily
Mining Record.
Mr.. Wolf was instructed to take i'm
mediate steps to thoroughly repair and
partly remodel the Salisbury MILL
which will be placed in commission at
the earliest possible moment. He was
also instructed to install drainage
boxes throughout the entire length of
the road adit, in order to prevent wa
ter from flowing into the workings
below the collar of the main shaft.
These workings are to be completely
unwatered, repaired and extended,
with view of operating the property
to its former capacity.
1t is said that it is the intention OF
the Stanley Mines Company to make "A
series of tests in the Salisbury mill
when it has been repaired, after which
a new mill, designed to treat between
80 and 100 tons a day in the most eco
nomical manner, will be erected. With
such an addition the plant at the Stan
ley mine will be one of the most COM
plete in the district.
The largest addition of mining prop
erty made by the Stanley Mines Com
pany within the last two years, now
aggregating eighty-nine patented
claims, promises to become an enter
prise of huge proportions, and the

NEWS FROM THE MINES AND MILLS
Activity In the San Juan.

Every indication now points to one
of the very best seasons that San Juan
county has ever had in the mining in
dustry. Each day, says the Silverton
correspondent of the Daily Mining Rec
ord, brings it's story of some property
reopened, some mine which has in
creased it's force, or some new property
to be thoroughly explored and devel-
oped.
The Old Hundred has recently made
very material increase in its work
Ing force. Under the management OF
Mr.. Maxwell the mine is being system
atically developed and large quantities
of ore are being blocked out.
The Hamlet Mining and Milling
Company, which recently reopened the
mine, has put the mill in operation.
Large quantities of fine milling ore are
already blocked out in the mine. A
fine streak of good ore was discov-
cred there last winter just before the
property was shut down. 1t is unques-
tionable that the mine can supply
much more ore than the mill can han
die. The company plans to double the
milling capacity in the near future.
The preliminary work on the new
Kittimas mill is going forward as
fast as it can be pushed by Superin-
tendent w. A. Kearns, who is in
charge of that part of the work. 1t
is hoped to get this mill completed
and ready for operation during the
early summer.
Superintendent John Kremmerer Of
the Peerless San Juan has returned
from the East and will Immediately
resume operations on the group
of claims belonging to that company.
The rumor is persistent that mill is
to be erected by that company in the
near future.
On the lower tunnel of the Little
Nation, property situated just above
Howardsville, Henry Frecker last fall
struck a vein of ore about six feet in
width. This same vein has been
struck in two other levels on the
property. AS soon as the ore bodies
are sufficiently blocked out it is the
intention to erect a new mill to han
die the product.
The Green Mountain has settled
most of it's Indebtedness and will re-
open the property in the immediate fu-
ture. 1t will only be a matter of a
very short time before the mine and
mill will be running with full force.
The Green Mountain, at the time of
suspension of operations, has large
quantities of ore in the mine ready for
treatment.
The new mill contracted for by the
San Juan Smelling and Refining Com
pany for the Henrietta will be erected
by the Colorado Iron Works Company
during the present season.

Will Open Newell Tunnel.

Negotiations looking to a resump-
ton of work in the Newell tunnel.
penetrating Grouse mountain. in the
Cripple Creek district, have been en-
tered into between the eastern bond
holders of the Buffalo & Cripple Creek
Gold Mining Company and local mining
men. The mining company. in addi-
tion to ownership OF the Winner lode
mining claim, patented property on
the southern slope of Beacon hill, holds
a twenty-year lease on three blocks of
ten acres each on the Grouse Mountain
school section penetrated by the bore.
The tunnel already driven for a dis
tance approximating ! ,250 feet, has cut
numerous mineraliZed dykes and veins
carrying low values, and 1t Is believed
possible under the existing low treat
ment rates to at least assist In the
expense of operating the bore by the
mining of this low-grade ore. At a
point 1000 feet In the tunnel one OF
these dykes is from thirty to fifty feet
wide and values have been obtained
therein OF an average value of little
under one-half ounce of gold to the
ton. An expert examination of the diff
ferent leads will be made as soon as
working permit Is obtained from the

secured to enter and sample the tun-

High Endowment.

One of the highest and best enjoy
ments comes through what is done for
others. This is believed in theoreti-
cally, but seldom practically If a man
has money, he imagines that the way
to enjoy it is either to keep and accu-
mulate it or to spend 1t on personal
gratification; yet he misses the very
finest of its delights when he refuses
to share it or its benefits with others.
So with our time, our talents and our
thoughts-kept to ourselves, or used
simply for our own delectation, they
do not give us a 1.-THE of the real en-
joyment that they afford when we use
them literally for the benefit Of the
family, or friends, or the community.

Bio Glaciers.

The big glaciers are among the fea-
lures which make Switzerland ia
nous and attractive to tourists. Visit
ing and inspecting these vast accumu-
lations of ice are invariably on the
program of the more hardy men and
women who seek diversion in that
picturesque country, and along with
mountain climbing give ample oppor-
tunity for adventure and for testing
endurance and skill. Recently fears
would disappear in time, since, as was
alleged, they gave strong evidence of
melting away. But the scientists
have been investigating carefully and
the result is comforting assurance
that the glaciers are all right, and
likely to stay indefinitely. The ap-
parent changes are explained by the
fact, as alleged. that glacier action is
variable, being subject to periodical
changes which cause the icy masses
TO expand and contract at intervals
The glaciers, say these learned men,
may be so ext ended for space of so
years or so as to cover ground from
which there had been recession, and
then in turn may show plainly per-
ceptible shrinkage. There is not like
ly to be much variation on the aver
age, and the glaciers are pretty GER
tain to remain permanent features for
ages to come. The same principle,
says the Troy IN. " Times, ap-
plies to some famous glaciers of the
western hemisphere, including the
mighty Muir glacier of Alaska, and
the world bids fair to remain in pos
session of the present supply of frigid-
fty. Even the ice trust cannot collar
all of the product

A Matter Of Comparison.

The Camp Bird company, Of Ouray,
Colorado, owned by English capital.
is employing total of about $50 men,
and is earning at the rate of better
than $1,O00,000 year net. In other
words, the labor of each man nets the
company on the average $1,000 a year.
The product of the Camp Bird is gold
consequently, that fact does not need
to convince patrons as to the merit
or Its output. We doubt IL there is
any industrial enterprise in the world
employing like number of men and
making $1,OOO,OO0 a year profit out of
the operations. We are willing to ad-
init that the Camp Bird is an excep-
tion to the general rule. 1t is very rare
that mines make good to the same ex-
tent, and it is seldom that, where they
do make good, they employ such
small force of operatives. But the
Camp Bird is one of the illustrations
that proves conclusively that there is
always a chance to get into a big thing
and to reap profit far above the aver
age. There is also another phase that
should be taken into consideration by
investors, and that is that the mines
that make the most money are not al
ways the mines that have the greatest
ore reserves or the best ore averages.
Business management is the basic
necessity of success in mining lines.
Finding ore IS very necessary, but max
ing the greatest amount of profit on
the ores is just as essential. The same
principles that underlie success in rail-
roading, in manufacturing, or in mer-
chandising, must also govern mining
operations. The particular lure about
mining is that it may pay profit far
in excess of the average; 100000
worth of work may prove failure or
bonanza. Geology and metallurgy
and the other branches of mining sci
ence are ever striving to reduce failure
to the minimum and advance success
to the maximum. Where rich ore re-
serves are broken into, the property
will pay greatly added percentage
without necessarily calling for any
more expenditures or investment. But
this gambling feature should become
entirely subservient to keen business
management. The administrative af-
fairs of mining corporation usually
tell the story of the success of the
proposition.-Daily Mining Record.

Long Tramway In Alaska.

The Bonanza is to build an aerial
tram $4,000 feet long at cost OF $125,'

There is, probably, no human fac
ulty that is more in need of faithful
and patient cultivation than the judg-
ment. for there is none that has more
complications to deal with or more
difficulties to overcome Nevertheless,
there is, perhaps, none which receives
less systematic discipline, or upon
which people are generally less will.
ing to expend labor and thought. They
train their children's memory, exer-
else their powers OF expression,
school them In habits of industry, en-
durance, patience and self.control, but
seldom discipline their Judgment or
teach them how to draw correct con.
clusions. That they suppose. says
the New York Weekly, is something
which time and experience will do for
them. yet, when they see what hasty
opinions and ill-advised judgments are
continually formed by older people,
they might infer that some definite
education in this respect was neces.
sary for both young and old.
