OF knowledge. But a school or university might dis
cipline and train men and yet be as bare of any in
spirational influence, any refining quality, any power
OF stirring the soul, as the forest is bare of leaves when
the wind Of December sweeps through it. In its richer
sense, education is as much a matter of atmosphere as of
definite instruction; and an enthusiasm for any kind of
knowledge, shared by a group of undergraduates, is often
more contagious and fruitful for educational purposes
than the most thorough training in the classroom and

New Furnace Runs Smoothly at C.. "a

Last week the new 5OO-ton furnace
which was started at the Calumet and
Arizona smelter was reported to be
giving excellent results. This furnace
has the same ca pacity as the furnaces
of the Copper Queen and will handle
200 tons of ore daily more than either
of the old furnaces at the G. and A.
plant. Good speed was made in the
construction of this new furnace,
construction work requiring less than
sixty days after all the material was
on hand. No. 2 furnace, one of the
first to be put in service at the C. and
A. was allowed to cool and work started
on the enlargement of this furnace to
something like the capacity of the
new one, it being the intention to
overhaul and enlarge all the old
furnaces one at time, so as not to
interfere with production during its
progress. The furnace now idle had
been in continuous operation for
more than thirteen months and was
fully ready for attention in the way
of repairs.-AmeriCan

See Big Future for Nickenbere.

According to a special from p zoe
nix, papers are about to be signe II
Wickenberg for the transfer of the
McNeill-Willett group of five claims,
southwest Of the Vulture mine, in
in Maricopa county, for d consider
alton of $4,000.
J. G. Reed states that when he left
Wickerberg last week the negotia-
tions had been brought to close and
that all remaining to complete the
deal was the singing of the papers.
For several years the claims have
been owned by Dan McNeill and
Chas. Willett, and run high in lead
and silver values. About 300 feet of
development has uncovered several
we'll defined ore deposits.
Reed is enthusiastic over the min
ing conditions in and around Wicken-
berg. He says the sale of the Vul-
ture property to Boston capitalists
hls already started a revival in m n
ing that is bound to make Wicken-
berg the center of great activity in
the next year.
"The world is learning that we
have the mines, and that all it takes
to make them great is capi al for de-
velopment purposes" remarked
Reed. "Wickenberg is certain to be
the center of great mining district
We have known this for years, but
not until now have we seemed on the
eve of the big mining boom that is
to bring wealth to many and provide
work for thousands of miners"
In Wickenberg great Preparations
are being made for this activity in
the nearby districts, in several of
which are mining properties that are
bound to become important pro
ducers. Ice plants, smelling plants,
supply houses and such improvements
are being constructed a short dis
tance away from Wickenberg.

Wolverine Copper Costs tie Least.

Wolverine is producing copper at
the rate of 10000, 900 pounds for the
year. 1t is also stated that the cost is
not more than I cents per pound.
The Wolverines fiscal year ends June
30, so that it would appear conserva-
tive to estimate that the company
will average at least II cents per
pound for its product, thereby leaving
d profit of Cents per pound, or $780,
900. equal to $l1 60 cents per share on
the twelve months production: The
last dividend on the stock was $780,
making Sl2 30 for the year. Front
present operations he last declaration
can be maintained if indeed the old
rate of ST 30 is not re-estabished at
the next directors meeting.
The Wolverine is about the cheapest
producer at the Lake, its total cost
of copper has never risen as high as
8 cents In the past five years. and in
1905 the cost was close to cents,
Z 'er since the com pany was reorgan-
zed in 1900, and p 1t in working condi-
tion, it has been the best small mine
in the Lake region. We have pre-
pared comparison of the itemized
costs of production and it will be noted
that in the past four years little
or nothing has been spent for con-
structiou, says the Financial News.
This is probably due to the fact that
an enormous amount of construction
was thoroughly done in 1902. From
1903 to 1906 inclusive the cost per
pound at. the mine vas well under q
cents. The total cost in the six years

was only one Of many strange acts on
