viii American Women Be Stirred?
1t is rather odd that English women,
who have the name of being conserva-
tive and retiring, should furnish the
most pronounced illustration of suf-
frage agitation. The "suffragette"
movement, carried to the extent of
violent protest and resulting in the ar
rest and punishment of a number Of
ladies of rank and high social stand.
Ing who participated in the demon
stration, is still in vivid remembrance,
nor has 1t subsidized. In fact, the "suf.
fragettes" appear to be in some re-
spects more determined than ever.
They are even sending out mission
aries to stir up the American women
to revolt" One of them has arrived

suffrage won in number of states
and qualified suffrage in various other
sections. American women, often rep
resented as impulsive and hasty, in
reality as a whole show calmer judy
ment and are more deliberate in &C.

Books for All Ages.

The publisher who advertises
''books for all ages" tacitly recognizes
that the seven ages of man cali for
different intellectual food. The pic
lures and fairy tales for children and
the philosophy and criticism for
serene old age are accepted as mat
ter of course. But the debatable land
il that between Is and Is, aud this es-
pecially for girls. It is highly unde-
sirable for Mary that she should read
everything at hand. It is equally un-
desirable for the man of letters that
he should be restricted in his product
to the book suitable for the sweet girl
graduate. AS life opens before her
she should have books which will in
terpret it for her. Meantime, for the
men and women who are in the midst
Of life's actual struggle, there should
be other books-no less delicate
through covering larger field. The
demand of mature men and women
who rely upon the imaginative writer
to help them in their relations with
other folk is not for wicked books.
Nothing could be less to their pur-
pose. A clever novelist has recently
said that our time asks mot brutal
books, not indecent books, but truth
full books" American mothers may
learn from French mothers what
girls should and should not read. They
must also learn how to make pro-
hibition effective without its being
either irksome or suggestive of diso-
bedience. When a girl once discovers
that her mothers book fits her no bet
ter than her mothers bonnet it will be
a gain for girlhood and for literature.

METAL OUTLOOK HAS DECIDEDLY IMPROVED
THE LEADING PRODUCERS AGREE IN OPINION

BOSTON. May 23.-All the lead
ing copper interests mere unite in
the statement that the copper metal
situation shows distinct improvement
not only for export. but for domestic
consumption.
The foreign demand not only re-
mains undated. but is on the in
crease rather than otherwise and
shows indication of still heavier
demand from England and the Con
tinent.
Germany in particular is using a
great deal of the metal. as many
trolley line projects are under way in
that country and there are large
order for locomotives.
Private adyices from Europe re-
eeiyed this morning state that the
copper consumption in Germany for
the first three months of this year
was n per cent larger than for the
corresponding period last year. and
that in England the increase was
fully 40 per cent larger, and in
France Is per cent larger
The domestic demand. while show
ing improvement, still remains small
and far from satisfactory, but the
conditions are such that the CONF
plete market revival. it is thought.
may occur almost any moment.
Should the restoration of conf
dence become pronounced there
would undoubtedly be rush to buy
copper such as has always character
lied the market under similar con
ditions as now prevail.
1t can be stated that one of the
largest consumers in the country.
who has carried at least 25,0O0,00O
pounds of copper when the price was
at 25 cents pound. is at present
carrying not over 100000 pounds
but will be in the market for very
large amount if business generally
should improve.
Buyers bo.h for domestic use and
export are fighting any raise and
endeavoring to break prices to 2 u
cents, with the intention of adding to
their stock if possible. Thus far they
have succeeded in holding it at OF
below Is. but under present con
ditions there seems To be, according
to producers opinion. little chance OF
forcing lower values.
Copper interests regard the easier
money market and the new railroad
financing as large factors of favor
= able character to the copper market
With the revival of business, manu-
features of all kinds must be directly
benefited and this. in turn, will affect
: directly the copper metal.

of the preceding year.
AS to Russia. the condition of
production, as well as of consumption
have undergone a very material
change when compared with the pre-
eeding year. According to the figures
communicated to us by competent
Russian firms in the copper trade.
the production has risen from TO-
700 tons to 5000 tons-i. e. by
more than 40 per cent. Imports, on
the other hand, receded to one-third

though not to very considerable ex-
tent. Her copper exports in 1907
amounted to 1900 tons, as against
400 tons in 1906 and in 1905.
simultaneously the consumption
of copper in Russia has declined by
$500 tons, or pa per cent. Ac-
cording to the opinion prevailing in
expert circles, the development of
Russia's copper production is likely
to make further progress during the
next few years. If this opinion
should be verified by events without

VALUABLE MINING LAW POINTS
WESTERN AUTHORITY ENTERS UPON THOROUGH
EXPLANATION OF GENERAL REGULATIONS AS TO
SELECTION OF CLAIMS AND GROUND THAT COMES
UNDER THE HEAD OF MINERAL LANDS-FACTS
WORTH REMEMBERING

The following article written by A
H. Ricketts,. well known mining
lawyer of San Francisco and printed
in the Engineering & Mining Journal
gives very valuable information:
The first mining act, that of 1866,
passed by the congress Of the United
States was silent as to placer claims.
This omission was remedied by suisse
quent Legislation GS70.) The
present mining act, the statute of
1872, provides for both lode and
placer locations. defines the character
of the deposit. which may be located
in each class, declares what surface
and sub-surface rights shall attach
thereto. and the form of surface To-
cation each may have. II omits to
state what shall constitute dis
coyery" or what may be a sufficient
marking of the claim.
This act applies to certain portions
of the United States that are public
lands; and in some of those states
there is no statutory distinction be-
tween mineral and non-mineral land,
and all public land therein may be
acquired under the general land laws.
Where the mining law is applicable il
is not the geological form of the
selection SO much as whether under
the terms of the law it is subject to
location as lode or placer claim, or.
for that matter, subject to location at
all. For instance cinnabar, which
does not usually occur as a lode.
must be located as lode claim; and
marble. although occurring as strata
In solid rock, must be located as a
placer claim. Iron and coal, If lying
within the limits of certain congress
sional land grants. cannot be io-
Gated.
1t is essential that the mineral de-
post shall be located under the laws
applying to the kind of deposit to

CONSUMERS TAKE NOTICE Of ELY COPPER

yelop from a copper importer to a
copper exporter, During the near
future. however, Russia will not be in
position to bring her copper i'm
ports to a full stop. Those imports
consist almost exclusively of cleo
trolytic copper. which the cleo
trolytic works now operating
in the country are unable to produce
in the required measure. But in
view of the fact that copper shipped
to Russia has to pay a considerable
import duty-about f32 per ton
the transition from the condition OF
copepr importing to that of cop
per exporting country must. as
matter of course, be assisted by APP
propriate economic measures. With
this end in view, the Russian copper
producers have formed an eleetrolytie
copper refinery in Russia.
Neither as to shipments to China,
nor as to the copper consumption of
that country during 1907 is it pos
sible as yet to give definate statistics.
The United States exported In 1907
1900 tons to China. as against 2200
tons for the preceding year while
Chinese imports from Japan amount
ed in 1907 to 1900 tons, against
$500 tons in 1906. How far this in
crease in Chinese imports has actual
ly entered into the consumption there
cannot as yet be correctly ascertain
ed, figures relating to re-exports OF
copper from China for 1907 not be-
ing available as yet. In 1906 those
re-exports amounted to 1900 tons. so
that during that year only about 500
tons became part of the Chinese con-
1t is. however, a fact all
ready ascertained that during 1907
the re-exports from China were
rather unimportant. Another cir
cumstance which deserves to be
pointed out is that China of late has
in a much larger measure
as buyer of copper.

to the validity of either. Yet, the

Although by its terms the mining
act would seem to have been broad
enough to authorize the location of
any mineral substance, not rock i'm

and the land department so restricted

specially provided by act of August
| 4, 1902, and act of Feb. 1881
respectively, that land chiefly valu-
able for building stone or for
petroleum or other mineral oils may
be located as placer claims. There is
no particular Specification to be at
tached to the use of the word Chief
iy IN such acts, as no land is proper

the mineral occurring on it make If
