G,!d.siIver Ore Runnlng sI.sO Pound.

One of the richest gold and silver
strikes perhaps ever made in the
southwest is reported on the Clark
lease of the Cole & Goodwin group of
claims. The ore, land not the best of it
either, will run S1.5O per pound. An
assay,a report on which was given out
last week, shows that the ore contains
1858 ounces of gold and ,475 ounces
in silver. When it was first discov-
cred it was thought to be a silver
proposition, and was so reported in
Sundays issue of the Silver Belt.
Ore of a similar nature had never
been discovered in the territory and
old miners did not recognize the
presence of gold.
The strike was made in a shaft at
depth Of about ten feet from the
surface in a small streak associated
with commercial copper ore. The
mine had been opened as a copper
proposition. Going to the workings
last Thursday, Mr.. Clark discovered
that his force was throwing over the
dump a peculiar looking ore, which,
upon examination, he discovered was
very rich in silver. A test for silver
revealed the presence of other met
ais and gold run was made with the
result as given above. There has
been at least 500 pounds of this ore
taken from the shaft''and thrown over
the dump. 1t will be sacked and
carefully guarded.
The extent of the rich discovery is
not known. Work was suspended af-
ter the shot which threw up This rich
stuff. 1t will he resumed Immediate
ly to determine more fully the i'm
portance of the find. Mr.. Clark states
that there is a clearly defined streak
of this tellurium, and is sure that he
has a bonanza mine and the greatest
gold proposition in the territory

Bisbee Postal Receipts Increasing
Rapidly.

Postmaster Cassidy, who recently
made his annual report to the Post
master general at Washington, has
given out the figures for the sale of
stamps for that period, and as has
been usual with the Bishee postoffice
for many years, a substantial in
crease is shown. This, too, notwith-
standing the fact that half of the
time included in the report was dur
ing the financial depression.
This report shows that. the year
ending March 81, 1908, showed stamp
sales to the value of S34,Ol1.13, as
compared with S2S, 739. so for the year
ending March 81, 1907, an increase of
eighteen per cent. or S5,272.25.
The following figures for the past
four years show the marvellous in

Homes of Cement in Copper Country.

It has been suggested that the min
ing companies of the Calumet district
and of the entire copper country, for
that matter, build the homes of their
employees in the future of cement, en-
tirely. The plan has been met with
considerable interest, and, although
1t may never be taken up there Is
sure to be serious consideration of
the suggestion by the heads of the
, various big mining concerns of this
region. The type of the house sug
gested is that recently invented by
Thomas A. Edison, the electrical wiz
ard, who worked for some time on an
idea for the rapid construction of
cheap, though substantial domiciIes
for poor people. Mr.. Edison finally
involved a plan whereby a house
could be constructed entirely OF
cement, including all the. interior
walls, doorways, uprights, cellar
walls inside walls of the building
proper, etc, excepting of course, the
roof. Mr.. Edison's plan makes it
possible to build such a house in a
very short space of time. 1t has been
demonstrated that one can be CON-
structed complete, almost within a
single day, and that the building will
be much more substantial and just as
good or better than the ordinary
stone, brick or wood building
These cement houses according to
Mr.. Edison's plan are built in one
niece. The frames for the cement
are set up entire and filed, the work
being done in the space of twelve or
fourteen hours while the prospective
owner or resident stands by and
watches his new house grow into
shape. Then the roof is built of some
good fireproot material, is slapped
on, the wooden floors laid, the win
dow and door frames set in and the
glazier does his work, and there is
the house complete, excepting the
furnishing. Even the fire CRATES, if
there are to be any, are built of the
cement right along with the con-
struction of the walls.

Cananea's Prospects Are Looking Good

w. Fl. Lyons, who is an employe OF
the Bank of Cananea, arrived in
Tucson from the big Sonora copper
camp and will remain for several days
on a visit with friends. Mr.. Lyons
stated that conditions in Cananea
have shown considerable improve
ment and that the camp is not en-
tirely out of commission.
SIN fact, Cananea is lively town, "
said Mr.. Lyons. 1--WE have 1T the
present time about 200 men on the
payroll. Of course, in the most
prosperous days we had several thous-
and, and naturally when the reduc-
tion came it was felt in the town, as
everything had been going along
with rush and prosperity was evil
dent everywhere.
The Greene-Canauea company is
making big improvements on the
smelter. The old plant is being en-
tirely remodeled. When this work
is completed the smelling plant will
be one of the most complete in the
country. The latest Smelter machln-
cry Is being installed. This improve
ment will result in a saving in labor
and a consequent reduction in the
cost of treating the ores"
Mr.. Lyons said further that be-
tween 300 and 400 men are at work on
the Cananea Central property, which
was one of the last to be acquired by
the Greene-Canauea company. Ex-
tensive development work is being
carried on at the Cananea Central
with very satisfactory results, he
stated.
He added that no defuite date had
been given out as the time when

in his resignation as superintendent
about a mouth ago.
II. A. Collin, who until recently has
been in the employ of the Shannon
Copper company at Clifton, will Of
fciate as assistant superintendent.
Mr.. Collin has had many years of ex-
perience in the mining business and
will undoubtedly prove a valuable
addition to the working force of the
Arizona Commercial.
Patrick C. ONeill for the past two

feet in width, carrying good values
in gold and silver.
The change in the management of
the mine evidently means that it is

Small Fortune In Gold Bar.

What would to many people be q
small fortune was on exhibition last
week in the display window of Gold
berg Bros store in Phoenix, being a
bar of gold bullion worth 81, 500 from
the Gribalva Coarse Gold Mining
company's property ten miles north
of Wickenburg, in the Black Rock
district.
N. McCarver, who now holds a
lease on the Grijalva property,
brought the bullion down from Wick
enburg. He states that it represents
the mill result of 100 tons of ore run
through a mill in the past month.
An assay of the tailings has dis
closed to McCarver that the amount
of gold that he did not recover is
greater than that saved, the tailings
assaying $2S to the ton. He will in
stall a 25-ton cyanide plant at once
to handle the tailings.
The mill result and the assay of
the tailings show that the 100 tons of
ore taken out by McCarver carry S58
in gold to the ton, which is excep-
tionally rich ore for such a large
amount.
Thirteen years ago the Grijalva
property was worked by its Mexican
owners, who by the dry concentrating
process took out $50, 900 in gold while
they operated. Two years after this

Cauanea Outlook by Col. Greene.

The great mines of Canauea will be
in operation on or before 60 days.
The copper demand is increasing and
it seems there have been important
contracts for this metal.
In an interview had with Col. w.
G. Greene at his rooms in the Hotel
Saens, he said: "The working of the
mines was not completely shut down.
In the past months there has been a
force of 800 mechanical men working.
Before we had 5000 miners working
but the ones now are mechanics. who
are improving all the branches of the
machinery. They have duplicated
the capacity of the working ovens
and new ones have been installed.
Heretofore they used to melt 1850
tons per day and now there will be
melted 25OO tons par day. These
great installations have incurred d
great expense, but l am confident
that it will be repaid soou."
Mr.. Greene said their own railroad
in the mines has been completed
with an extension of 40 kilometers.
'The works at Cananea will start in
about two months and at that time |
will need 5000 miners. 1t will not be
a difficult matter to get them as there
is at present a great demand for
work. When the works are started
it will be kept up. The majority of
the copper that Cananea will produce
will be sold in Europe and the United
States, from where [ have received
propositions that have been accepted
already"

No One Likes A LOafer

,,Remember my son, said the late
Bob Burdette, ''you have to work,
whether you handle a pick or a set of
books, dig bitches or editor a news
paper. ring an auction bell or write
funny things, you must work. If YOU
look around, you will see the men
who are the most able to live the
rest of their days without work, are
the men who work the hardest Don t
be afraid of killing yourself with
oyerwork. 1t is beyond your power to
do that on the sunny side of 80.
They die sometimes but it's because
they quit work at 6 p. m. and didn't
get home till a. m. It's the interval
that kills, my son. The work gives
an appetite for your meals; it lends
solidly to your slumbers; it gives you
perfect and grateful appreci alton of
a holiday. There are young men who
do not work, but the world is not
proud of them. 1t does not know
their names even; it simply speaks of
them as old So-and. Sos boys. No
body likes them. That great busy
world dosen't know that they are
there. So find out what you want to
be and go and take Off your coat and
make dust in the world. The buster
you are the less harm are you liableto
get into, the sweeter will be your sleep,
the brighter and happier your holt
days and the better satisfied the world
will be with you"
