claims recently taken over under bond by the Cunningham Pass Cop per company, says the Journal Miner Considering the amount of the pur- chase price and that the deepest shaft on the ground is only 115 feet, the surface showing in gold and copper ore must be very promising, as the purchasing company took over the ground and made the first payment only after thorough examinations were made by competent mining en- gineers.
 A new working shaft will be start ed at once on the great ledge which can be traced the entire length of the claims, some of the outcrOp carrying values high enough to be considered in the shipping class. Hoisting ma chinery will be installed later and de- velopment rushed with all possible speed. The company now has 52 men at work on the Boone claims, a short distance from the Sosephi purchase and has property developed so that regular ore shipments can be made from it in the future. The Boone property was formerly known as the sOld, Bullard" mine, among the oldest locations in the district, next 10 the JoS.robi claims.

UNITED VERDE OUTPUT

Last months output from the Unit ed Verde Copper company mines was slightly in excess of 3,000,000 pounds of copper. The company is now operating full time as compared with 90 per cent of capacity last fall and early this year. Since March the company has been turning out from 2,5O0,O00 to S,0OO,OO0 pounds monthly The United Verde is mining from both of it's shafts, one of which is 1000 feet deep and the other about 300 feet A large part of the pro- duction is coming from the 5th, 9th Eth and Sth levels. For a while the United Verde was turning out it's copper without the use of roasting ores, but these ores are now being utilized as formerly. Costs in May it is understood, were somewhat low CT than in previous months of the current year, and in these costs no consideration is taken of the precious metal values in the ores. The ores in the United Verde mine are not so rich as they were twelve or fifteen years ago when, with gold and silver credited against operations, a very low cost resulted. At the present time, however, costs are not running far from last years average of 10 1-2 cents.

grade ore as found in the upper levels.
 The richest ore found in the mine is below the 500-fOOt level, in a winZe sunk from the level in the east drift, down to water level, 56 feet We have every reason to believe that 100 feet below the 5th level will show the ore to be very much higher grade as demonstrated by the winze sunl; to water level
 Our big shaft will be9 continued to a depth of 1000 feet and it is go- ing down at the rate of better than 100 feet per month. We will not cut station in the shaft until we reach water level, when we will go bacE, and cut a station at a depth of 454 feet; otherwise we would interfere with sinking the shaft. Our plant at the new shaft is now complete, with two large sinking pumps, new hoist. two 200 horsepower boilers, etc, and work is being pushed.
 We recently connected the 500 and 400fOOt levels by means of an upraise which is in good commercial ore all the way.
 We have every reason to believe that the Arizona Commercial will make one of the big mines of Ari- zona and every months development adds to this belief "

OLD DOMINION
The June Production and the Cam
 paign of Development.

The June production of old De- minion was about 3,500,0OO pounds. approximately the same as that for May. Between S5 and 90 per cent of this came from the companys own mines, and well over 90 per cent of the entire shelter output came from the rGlObe district, the only foreign ores being about 100 tons a day of sulphide ore from California. The month of May witnessed the lowest fuel consumption in the his tory of the company, and a very low smelling cost, about $2.7O a ton, and | it is hoped to reduce this still fur ther to $25O.
 Underground. the company is ex- tending it's 10th and 12th level drifts to the east, in the direction of United Globe. On these two levels, and par ticularly the 10th. another shoot of
 ore has been encountered, which while not so wide as the phenomenal shoot on the 14th level-is very rich in copper and carries good values in silver
 The deepest and most dangerous part of the dam. when Is being built in connection with draining the west ern part of the mine, has been com pleted. After this project is finished, the company will sink a two-com- pertinent vertical development shaft to open up that end of the property, which has not hitherto been readily available.
 old Dominion's campaign of ex- ItraOrCi:tary underground development
 has been broad'- planned, and hes
 been very expensive. It has bcsn carried on with two chief ends in
 view: to develop a supply or sul-
 phde ore sufficient 10 IGal@ the
 property independent of foreign ores, and to change the system of I.ining
 from vein drifts to fooot wall drifts.

prospects In one shaft 1S0 feet deep, a good grade of sulphide ore is eX- posed, and in another shaft, 10S feet, there is a 67-foOt crosscut ending in a vein of sulphide ore not entirely cut On another claim there is sul- phide ore in a ten foot hole.
 Originally the claims were located by J. N. McPherson, Joseph Faull and Harvey Towner, about three years ago.
 The King Trail Development com pany will resume the development by continuing the crosscut where the new vein was struck by the Globe Pinto company when it's means were exhausted.
 It is said by men who know the nrines of the country that the pros pect is an excellent one and the new management should make a paying mine of it in the near future.

The lceless lcebox.

Throughout the tropical and tenn Iord-over- during the hot summer months but now it is an open secret that there is rebellion in the kingdom and electricity has opened a way to freedom and independence. The ty- ranny of the ice-wagOn and the mon umental summer ice schedule must go. This is not another Celestial "tong-war" but an electrical develop ment which will be heralded with great delight by every householder and also with great consternation and regret by the ice trust.
 This is an age of horseless wagons. houses without chimneys, wooden stoves and why not the iceless ice box A new automatic artificial re-
 rrigerator has been invented which
 works independent from the iceman and his diminutive sample of crystal
 lized germ water. This entirely up
 tO-date machine produces its own coldness.
 The new refrigerator is operated by
 electricity and works automatically.
 In place of ice a cooling liquid" is
 circulated by a small motor driven
 pump. The scheme for keeping the ! !refrigeratOr cool is the same as used to make artificial ice. With the mot Or-driven pump ammonia is com | pressed to tine point at which the gas l iiquifies Qor pure ammonia is a gas) ] and the heat generated by this com
 pression is extracted with water jack cts. This liqUified gas is conducted | to the cooler through a pipe and al i lowed to expand in a coil Of course ! as the gas expands it absOrbs just as much heat from it's surroundings as was generated irl compressing it. This lowers the temperature of the interior nearly to the freezing point. From the expansion coil the gas is conducted back to the compressor ready for another sycle.
 The beauty of the electric refrig- orator is that it works absolutely automatically and with the perfection of economy. When the temperature in the "icebOX" rises above a certain point a tiny electric device starts the electric motor which circulates the cooling liquid.

shafts 300 and 265 feet in depth, re-
 spectively. The showing in the works
 is such as to warrant the expenditure of a large amount in further develop
 ment, as arge bodies of ore of good
 grade are uncovered.
 The plan of development involves
 the sinking of the 300 foot shaft to a
 depth of 500 or 1000 feet from where
 crosscut will be run to a point un- derneath the 265 foot shaft. Should the ore showing warrant, a raise will be run to connect with the 265 foot shaft on the Italian claim, which will be made a three compartment one and one of the main working shafts There are four large veins cropping on the surface covered by the thirty three locations comprising the group.
 The original holdings of the company consisted of fourteen claims, nineteen others having been added by General Manager Young since he started de- Ivelopment operations and satisfied himself of the wonderful possibilities of the veins, in all of which he has ore uncovered. It Is the general opinion of all mining engineers who have examined the ground that tle four large veins unite at q great depth forming one great vein in which an immense ore Ge9osit will be found
 The group is located five and a
 half miles west of Prescott on the crest of the divide between the Thumb Butte and Copper Basin I,s- tricts, a mile and a half south of Alto station on the main line of the IS. F. P. & P. railroad. In the ac- quisition and development of the icompany's claims to their present stage, MT. Young encountered many difficulties, not the loast of which was financing the company for con tinuous operation. The work was not affected in any way by the panic on the eastern money and stock markets of last fall and winter work being prosecuted steadily. He is deserving of great credit for his judgment in selecting the property out of a large number of others in spite of the fact that no mines were ever opened to any considerable depth in the vicin- ity. He proved that the lodges had continuity and depth.

 These two objects should be ac- cOmplished with in the next six months, when extraordinary expendi- ture should be at an end.

ARIZONA MINES

After an absence of three weeks in the east, where he attended a meet ing of the directors and stockholders, J. II. Farrell, general manager of the New England Arizona Mining company, has gone to his camp to re- sUme operations, temporarily sus- pended before he left, says the Pres colt Journal-Miner
 In conversation with a Journal Miner representative, Farrell admitted that he was instructed to go ahead with the development of the prop erty and continue the work accord ing to his best judgment.
 During my visit east" he said, "I was the guest of the president, treas urer and board of directors of the company. l was royalty entertained and return to camp to start work again with pleasant remembrances of the trip and knowing that I am asso- ciated with and in the employ of a group of square men who mean busf- ness. I met S59 stockholders of the company, all of whom are satisfied with my conduct of the company's affairs I am instructed to continue the development of the ground ac- cording to my best judgment and have ample finances to carry on the work.
 Sinking will be resumed in the shaft at once It is my intention to carry it at least to the 500 foot level before and drifting or crosscutting is started The shaft is now 325 feet deep with over 200 feet of drifting at the 300 foot level. A tank will be cut in one of the levels on the 300 near the station where a pump will be installed. All the water in the vein above this point will be pumped from there to the surface The wa ter developed deeper in the shaft will be taken care of in the usual way
 Tt is not improbable that the shaft will be carried to the 1000 foot level when drifts are started at the 800 as the/ hoisting plant has capacity enough for this depth.
 Three of the nine claims compris- ing the New England Arizona group of mines. are held under United States patent and the annual assess ment work on the others for this year is already finished.

FOR BIG BATTLES
Cans Nelson Mill and Moran
AtteII Bout to Take
Place Soon.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.-Patrons
of the ring are obliged, for the first
time IN many months, to divide their
attention between two contests of more
than ordinary importance, scheduled
for next Week-the International feath-
erweight event of twenty-three rounds
between owen Moran, of England, and
Abe Attell, of San Francisco, which
takes place at 3 o'clock Monday after
noon. and the third meeting between
Joe Cans and Battling Nelson, also a
championship event, which is scheduled
to go twenty-five rounds at Colma on
the afternoon Of Admission Day, Sep
tenber .. at $50 o'clock. Latest adj
vices from the training camps of all
-four participants indicate that in each
instance the men are likely to enter
the ring in good shape.
Betting on the Moran-Attell fight is
10 to 6ta, with the Englishman on the
short end, in spite of the fact that he
fought q very even draw with Attell
in their former meeting which took
in this city about eight months
ago. The odds in Wednesdays contest
are about 10 to 61a, with Nelson a
strong favorite.
