NEW ACTIVITY IS REPORTED
 AT LEADVItLE
Important Work In Mining h. duStry Reported Under Way Within the Last Ten Days or Two Weeks.
fspecial to the Reyiew. ]

TOMBSTONE. April [. = Parties coming in from Gleason and the Lead vile country report renewed activity in that section during the past few days in the mining industry, and this week will see other important work started. While the Leadyille proper ty, which was under option to the Cal umet & Arizona, is at present idle. there are a number of men at work on the Casey property, which is under bond from Martin Costello, and on which a second payment was made last month. On what is known as the No. 5 shaft the water has been pump ed out and a force of men are now at work determining the extent of the body of carbonate ore that has been opened up in the bottom of tae shafi. It is understood that the company will start new shaft on this property within a short time. On the Ger mainia claims that were recently bonded from William Cowan and Vii. liam Stevenson for S6.500. and on which a 10 per cent payment was
 made last week, the company has al ready sarted work. These claims join the original Leadville group, and AS cts~ACN Os AA4OHE N A.O sAi v iISNft
 ested that the main part fthe ore body that was uncovered in the Lead vile property just prior to the time of the expiration of the option lies in these claims, that is the apex. Be- sides this bond on the GeFmainIa group, the c. & A. people signed up an option on the Shattuck group for $S.700, which contains the April Fools claim and two others. These claims join the LeadvilIe. and are in close proximity. to the Casey group. The first payment on the Brown group, which is held on a S1OO,O0O option, becomes due within a short time, and calls for a payment of 10 per cent.
 1t comes from a reliable source that the Great Western Mining Company, the principal owners of which are J. w. Young, c. H. Young. J. Young, of Youngstown, O., and P. B. WarHe- kros of Tombstone, are to begin av- tive operations within the present week, and that a new shalt will be started on the property and consid- erable development work done. The
 old shaft is not in as good condition as it might be and cannot be used to advantage in the plans that have
 been made for the future develop ment. This group consists of num- Der of patented claims that adjoin

NEW CONCENTRAT0R
 AT THE SILVERBELl
It Will Be Handling Ore Early
 In the Summer,

TUCSON, Ariz., April S.-The new 2oO-ton concentrator of the Imperial Copper company at Silver Bell is be ing rushed to completion and will be handling ore early in the summer II is of the most modern construction costing about S150,000. Electric pow CT will be furnished by the Sascc plant.
 Mir. Dietz stated that, while at pres ent only smelling ore is being mined, large bodies of concentrating ore, run ming from 8 to 6 per cent copper, are blocked out and preparations are be ing made to mine on large scale through two three-compartment verti- cal shafts and the lately completed incline shaft.
 The ore for which the concentrator Is especially designed is chalcopyrite disseminated in porphyry, of which there are almost unlimited deposits.
 The Page tunnel, recently driven for transportation purposes, opened up a body of excellent smelling ore which is now being mined.
 The shelter at Sasco has been found entirely satisfactory. There have been no freeze-ups or accidents or any hlnu SlnCe Ine luiHe was blown in two months ago, an unusual ly good record for new shelter run ming on untried ore.
 Mir. Goodlow, who has charge of the smelter, expressed himslf as entirely satisfied with the results SC far obtained, and said it was the Tn tention of the company to erect an other furnace in the near future co handle concentrates
 During the last month the Imper ial furnace produced 100000 pounds of 99 per cent bullion, placing Silver Bell among the larger copper camps of the territory. With the comple ton of the improvements mentioned this output will be at least doubled.

 The stock market today has been another quiet one and all the mar kets show a lack of interest by the general public.
 The New York market shows only slight changes and trading is mostly professional. The Boston listed is sues presented a weakening tendency and most of these stocks sold on Iiat tionally.
 The curbs are holding firm, but there is a lack of active demand for these stocks. We learn that the Butte & Arizona is planning on more extensive development work as soon as they install another boiler. They intend to run another tunnel at a lower level than the present oae also to begin a winze from the present tunnel to depth of 400 Feet. This work should prove the property in good shape.

The old workings have been allowed to fill up with water and it is partly on this account that the new work will be started. Just what action will be taken will be definitely de cided in this city during the next few days, as all of the parties interested are here and the selection of sII- perintendent to take charge Of the work will be made.

Heavy Demand for Stocks Caused An Advance and the Closing Was at High Water Mark-Market Healthy.

 The New York market opened in splendid form with a heavy demand for stock, which soon caused an ad- vance in prices, the entire main list closing at about the high mark for the day. The Boston market oid not respond to the activity of the New York market, although the market acted well.

back some dispatches to his officials

first German celebrity to express his

established that precedent. He was

one day messenger brought to him
some dispatches marked urgent"
and which the messenger said were
so important as to warrant his in
terruption of the great mans holi-
day. This message he bore from the
chief department of state. Bismarck,
without opening the package, wrote
across it: ''You can send those docu-
ments to the devil; he never takes
a holiday; I do" And the messenger
carried the unopened package back
with him to Berlin. 1t is said that
when the kaiser heard of it he re-
marked: "4h, Bismarck has greater

SENSITIVE PLANTS.

A large number of species OF
plants have become sensitive to the
touch or blow of solid object in a
manner broadly analogous to the
touch reactions of animals. One
form of this reaction is exhibited by
plants which climb by the aid of
tendrils. Tendrils are usually long,
slender organs sensitive on one sur
face only, although in some species
the percipient cells cover the entire
surface. When one of these organs
comes into contact with a solid OBJ
ject the outer sensitive cells are slim
ulated and communicate an impulse
to cells not far distant and curva-
ture ensues within a second, or a few
seconds at most, which usually re-
suits in curling the organ around the
object.
