ton district and is the principal cop per mineral of value. It occurs chiefly with pyrite in the altered porphyry, in granular or nodular masses or in veinlets traversing the mass. Messrs. Lindgren and Hillebrand write of this occurrence: Tt is never crystalized, but has an earthly or sooty appear ance and black color; cutting with a knife reveals the semi charac- ! ter and metallic luster In a few | small, massive veinlets the normal metallic luster and dark gray color appear on fractures. A fibrous or columnar structure of the mineral is known on small seams in shale from the Montezuma mine. The mineral prefers porphyry and the great bodies of ore now worked (19O4) all occur | in this rock, but it is not entirely unknown from the irregular deposits in limestone generally carrying cuprite and copper carbonates A partial analysis of massive chalcOcite from the MonteZuma mine, Morenci, gave 96 per cent copper sulphide, Gu S., and 2.4 per cent Fe iron sulphide, the latter probably mechanically ad- mixed
 "The chalcocite is everywhere, in this district, a secondary mineral formed by the replacement of pyrite by means of descending solutions of cupric sulphate. The deposition of the mineral was accompanied by the formation of quartz, chalcedony and kaolin. In the porphyry the chalco- cite ore. along the veins begins 100 to 200 feet below the surface and con- tinues to a depth of 400 feet, or even more, when it is usually replaced by pyrite, chalcopyrite and zinc blende" (Am. Jour. Science, Dec, 1904.)
 This mineral is found at various depths in the Copper Queen group of mines at Bisbee, and generally in tribution through masses of pyrite makes a workable ore.
 Chalcocite is found irregularly in the glance conglOmerate which ex- tends southward from Gold Hill, but not in sufficient quantity or concen- tration, to be remunerative.
 In the old mine, Cornelia shaft, at the AjO it is an important mineral Col Bean presented to the museum at the university, through W. P. Blake, an S0-pOund mass.
 Occurs in the Cobriza lime, Cababi district, Pima county
 CHAlCHUITE.
 The Indian name for the gem-stone corresponding to a turquOis. It is a hydrous phosphate of aluminium col ored by oxide of copper, and varies in color from green to greenish- blue
 and blue.
 Found in Turquois district, Dragoon mountains, near Gleason. In Mohave county, also, where there are exten- sive prehistoric workings at which Mir. A. B. FrenzeI of Colorado found many stone implements of mining scattered through the debris of an- cient pits.
 This gem-stone was held in high esteem by the aboriginal people of Arizona and New Mexico. and by the tribes of Mexico and South America

1 It was worn in the form of necklaces of discoid> beads or as pendants. It was also used in the form of tesserae for inlaying or for overlaying marine shells. Fragments of the gem may usually be found in the debris of former villages throughout Arizona It is highly prized by the Indians of today.
 cHALcoPYRITE.
 Commonly known, also, as "yelIow copper" or as Cooper pyrites." A suIphide of copper and iron; sulphur $50, copper 34.s, iron 3O.5. It may also, contain gold and silver, and iron pyrite, mechanically mixed.
 A common ore of copper abundantly distributed in the copper mines of Arizona. It may be found in nearly all of the chief copper mines, espe- cially below the zone of atmospheric oxidation and decay, and is generally associated with pyrite by which, and other minerals, the per cent of cop per in the ore is much reduced, pyrite often predOminating. It may be dis tinguished from iron pyrites by it's softness, being easily cut with a knife. It is represented by 3.5 to in the scale of hardness.
 | Among numerous copper mines where yellow copper is the chief ore we may mention the mines at Bisbee, at Globe and at Jerome, at the Twin Buttes and at other claims near Tue son. At LeatherwOod's in the Cata- linas it is closely associated with bornite. We find it in the claims about Dudleyville and the Christmas Gift, and in the lOdes of the Bryan group. Harris or Piety groups, and mines near Mineral creek, Ripley mining district, Pinal county.
 There are many occurrences in the mountains of the Santa Rita, espe- cially at Helvetia and Rosemont, and at the Total Wreck, Pima county.
 The Silver Bell district, west and north of Tucson, is another center of production of chalcopyrite, from the mines of the Old Boot, the Atlas, I'm perial company.
 In Tyndall district, Santa Cruz county, at the American Boy, at the Tia Juana and other claims
 Yellow copper ore is produced at the mines of the Clara Consolidated Gold & Copper Co, 17 miles north east of Bouse.
 At mines of U. S. Gold & Copper Co.,, in the Big Horn mountains, 32 miles southwest of Wickenburg.

Occurs in most of the deposits of galenite which have undergone de- composition by atmospheric agencies The sulphate is first formed and is then changed to carbonate, as shown in nodules from the Lost Gulch gold mines, near Globe, and in the Nam moth mine at Shultz, Pinal county. Occurs also at the Castle Dome mines, especially at the water level of the Railroad claim in association with wulfenite and vanadinite At the Manila mine. north end of the Huachucas, in a cave-like deposit from which many tons were shipped.
 In association with the galenite of Chiricahuas at Hands, and the Out look and other claims.
 At the Alice and adjoining claims at the Seven Cottonwoods, Pinal county.
 It occurs in quantity at the Morn ing lead mine, and at the Flux mine, Santa Cruz county, and in crystals at the Red Cloud mine, Silver district, Yuma county.
 cHALcANTHITE.
 "BIue stone," "blue vitrioI;" hy- drous cupric suIphate, sulphuric acid 321, cupric oxide SIS, water 36.1.
 At the United Verde copper mine this mineral occurs in considerable quantity. especially in the neighbor- hood of the burned -out stopes, where the ore was much enriched by the expulsion of the sulphur and its oxi- dation. Large masses were presented by the company and secured by Wm A. A. Johns, of Yavapai, for the min eral exhibit at the Fourth Territorial Fair, 1908. It was in large but very friable crystalline and stalactitic az gregates of a beautiful blue color, which attracted great attention. But the presence of copperas (melanterite) in portions of the specimens caused a change of color by oxidation.
 CHAICEDONY.
 Abundant in portions of the Gros- venor Hills in Santa Cruz county; also in amygdular (almond-shaped) nodules in the basaltic rocks of Tu- mamoc hill west of Tucson.
 A variety of chalcedony, colored bluish green and and blue by copper oxide, has attracted attention as a gem mineral, and has been brought lO iOllCG Oy hl5llllAdl O4 Globe, Arizona, who sent samples to the United States Geological Survey. The mineral is said to occur in small stringers in the Keystone copper mine in that district It varies in color from bright to pale blue, bluish- green and nearly apple green, resem- bling some chrysoprase. It bears some resemblance to the greenish colored chalchuite, but is more brill iant and translucent. It takes a high polish, is hard, and when well cut, en eabochon, and mounted forms a pleasing jewel.
 CHALCOCITE.
 Copper glance" "vitreous copper" cuprous sulphide; sulphur 20.22, cop per 7s.S.
 Common at most of the copper mines in Arizona when opened be- low the zone of atmospheric Oxida- ton. It is very common in the Cliff

 AGATE.
 Quartz, Silica, or Silicon Dioxide Oxygen 53.3, Silicon 46.7.
 This, a non-crystalline variety of quartz, occurs in banded layers of different shades of color, the result of deposition in cavities of rocks, usually of basalt; as, for example, in the hills west of Tucson, with chalce donic crusts and layers. See, also, chalcedony.

 CAlCITE.

aDoVe the lime quarry, Cll1tOn. CALclTE. Calcium carbonate. Carbon dioxide 440, Lime 56.0. Usually found as one of the vein stones or gangue in metaliferous veins, and is rarely found in good crystals in Arizona. At the Silver King 1t occurred in small obtuse rhombohedral crystals. "nail-head spar. strung. like beads. on silver filaments. or wire silver. Acute rhombohedra, the form known as "dog-tooth spar" are abundant in the Grand Canyon of the Colorado on the north side of the river, ac- cording to w. w. Bass. These crys- tals are amber colored and doubly terminated.
 At the Copper Queen mine, Bisbee. in the upper workings, calcite was abundant in the form of crystalline aggregates and in stalactites, often beautifully tinted green by the salts of copper.
 Calcite at the Ajo mine was the gangue of much native copper.
 In the Stonewall Jackson mine, Tombstone.
 III itdIly dll llle great tOpptI HlllcS, often in stalactites lining caverns.
 In the Naragansett copper claim, in obtuse rhombohedra, Rosemont, as the gangue of copper ore.
 CALICHE.
 Lime carbonate. Terrigenous trav- ertin.
 This term, "caliche." is given in the southwest to the widespread deposi- tion in the soil of a species of traver- tin which cements sand and bOulders into one mass resembling concrete. It appears to originate from the sub terraneous flow of water charged with lime carbonate. Such water ris- ing to the surface by capilarity is concentrated by evaporation and de- posits the lime carbonate.
 Chemical analysis, excluding the included sand and insoluble portions, resulted as follows:
 AnayIsis of Caiche. Calcium carbonate .7S.28 Magnesium carbonate ..,....... 2.13 Calcium silicate ................ 5.57 Aluminium silicate .............. 7.17 Ferric oxide ................... 1.SS Moisture .................... 1.2O
 
 good caustic lime and a strong mortar with sand which soon hardens.
 CERARGYRITE.
 "Horn Silver. Silver chloride, cho- rine 24.7, silver 75.3.... %. ... %. Q. Common in the croppings of veins Of rich ores of silver in greater or less quantity according to the abund- ance of the parent minerals.
 Found in the croppings of veins in Tyndall district, Santa Cruz county In the upper workings of the Cerro Colorado. It is cited by Dana as oc- curing in the veins of Fl Dorado Canyon, in San Francisco district, and in the Willow Springs district. At the Black Warrior mine and at the Peck mine, Yavapai (Hinton).

The case of the state versus Charles
Flush, accused of completely in rob-
bing Peter Willets, has been on trial
today and will probably go to the
jury this evening Wilets was re-
1ieved of $50 in the rear of the Parr
Bros. saloon the afternoon OF last
election day. Joe Parr and Sam Gas
ton were arrested for the crime and
on trial were convicted and given
long sentences. In an effort to save
themselves they tried to put the
blame for the crime on Charles
Flush. They failed in this but sue
ceeded in having Flush indicted for
completely in the robbery.
Flush was very nervous during the
progress of the trial today and SEEM
ed 10 take seriously the evidence that
was given against him. Several wit
nesses were placed on the stand to
show that Flush was in the saloon
about the time the robbery was COM
mitted and also that he had no mon
ey during the morning and early aft
ernoon. while later in the day he had

COLLEGES ARE TOO MUCH
GROUPED TO SHARE FUND
Chairman of General Educational
Board Makes a Report - Oregon
Schools Will Receive No Part Of
Rockefeller $4S, 1000, 900 Fund-Are
So Close Together That Their In
terests Are COnflicting-Likeiy No
Remedy. n

Portland, April 2O.-The colleges
OF Oregon will not share in the distri-
button of 100000 of the John D
Rockefeller fund. DR., Wallace But
trick, chairman of the general edu-
cational board, in a communication
to educators of the state declares that
the location of schools in oregon is
responsible. An area fifty by hun
dred and fifty miles includes seven
colleges of which the general board
takes cognizance. There are the state
university, McMinnville college, Will
liamette University, Pacific Univer-
sity, Dallas, Albany and Pacific COL
leges. The institutions would have
to scatter over a bigger area to get
part of the fund. No distribution of
money without a distribution of the
schools is the ultimatum of the board.
Buttrick says in his communica-
tion that the schools are so closely
located they cannot thrive because
their interests conflict. So far as can
be ascertained no Oregon college is
ready to tear down, move or construct
bigger buildings in order to get part
of the funds.

Through decision just given by
the registerer and receiver of the land
office at La Grande a signal victory
has been won by the entrymen who
filed on grazing land formerly in
cluded under the Umatilla reserva-
ton.
The decision given was in the case
of the government versus William
Roberts. The testimony in the case
was taken here in February, H. 7.
Jones, being representative Of the
government while Raley, Richards &
Raley appeared for the entrymen.
However the Roberts case is but one
out of 80 or 40 similar cases and in
each case the principal point at is
sue is the same.
This point is whether or not an en-
tryman must show that he has used
the land for grazing purposes. In
the past the department has held that
and the cases against Roberts ct al
were based on the allegation that the
entrymen were not using the land
themselves.
But under the decision given by
Registar Bramwell and Receiver
Eberhardt it is held that the entry
man has done sufficient in showing
that the land involved is grazing
land, regardless of whether or not he
has used it as such.
In local circles it is now taken for
granted that the land office will rule
the same with reference to all of the
cases that have been brought. These
are the Umatilla cash entry cases and
the evidence in the case was taken in
this city within the past six months.
1t is possible the government attor-
neys will take the case of Roberts be-
fore the commissioner general of the
land office for further hearing.

TRYING TO BREAK
PATTEKS CORNER

Chicago, April 2O.-What appar.
emily is a concerted effort to break
the Patten wheat corner was made
shortly after the opening of the pit
this morning. Enormous quantities
of wheat were dumped onto the mar
ket. and prices crumbled. May OPEN
ed at $1.26h and dropped to $1.25
Us, the lowest figure since the SEN
sational advance. Patten PERSONAL,
directed operations today, but failed
to get the figures back to the opening
level.
The bears this afternoon threw the
pit into an uproar by their terrific
raid, driving May wheat to $1.2Sh
and July to S112h. The bears con-
tinue to unload enormous quantities
from all directions and May dropped
another cent. Patten held the situa-
ton in land until noon when the
bears turned loose. May closed at
$1.24 and three eIghths
Asks Patten 10 Return Losses.
The pathetic feature of todays
trading was the visit of an aged wo-
man in Patterns office. She said:
my son lost all, having five thousand
dollars, in the pit, and you are re-
sponsibe for It. We are ruined and
7 have come to ask you to return the
money" Patten replied that he was
not responsible for her sons losses.

AT the same time a directory con-
tanning the name and address of every

Conditions for an unusually good
sheep year are at present very good.
Damage done by disease and preda-
tory animals Is most to be feared,
The predatory animal law passed at
the last session Of the legislature will

The year 1908 was not considered
very good, yet 100000 pounds Of
wool were produced, the fleeces aver
aging Sh pounds each, taken from o.
000,000 sheep. There are about g.
100000 sheep in the state now. Wool
is selling from IA to 20 cents a pound,
and the market Is good.
Tariff revision will not affect the
wool industry in oregon, Mr. Smythe
announced this morning. The only
change in the tariff will be made on
heavy third class wool, and this kind
of wool Is not produced in Oregon.
The cooperation Of the secretary
of agriculture will be solicited in con-
nection with the fight the state board

THREE CASES IN
BANKRUPTCY UP

Three bankruptcy cases came up
before Judge Fitz Gerald, as referee
in bankruptcy this morning. A meet
ing of the creditors of Nelson d.
Parkes and Charles P. Ford, were to
have been held this morning but
We're postponed until tomorrow, the
former at 2 p. m. and the latter at
10 a. m.
Witnesses We're also to have been
examined in the Johnnie Campbell
case, but this hearing was postponed
until o'clock this afternoon and is
now in progress. 1t is alleged by the
attorney for the creditors that the
young farmer turned over most OF
his assets to relatives before going In
to bankruptcy.
Judge Fitz Gerald has also approv-
ed of the sale Of the bankrupt stock
of the Pendleton Cloak and Suit
house. The store will probably be
reopeued Saturday.

PROBATION OFFICERS IL
ENFORCE DISCIPLINE AT DEPOT

Boys who have made a practice of
hanging around the depot at train
time, jumping on and off trains, will
be compelled to change their ways or
come to grief. Agent Schuyler has
complained to Judge Gilliland of the
juvenile court that the boys are not
only troublesome but are in danger
of getting injured. The court has
therefore instructed Probation Officer
Haley to round up the offending
youngsters and notify them as well as
their parents, that conditions must

CHILDREN OFFERED
TO PORTLAND AID SOCIETY

Robert E. Allen of Freewater, was
in the city today to have his two
nephews committed to the Boys and
Girls Aid society of Portland. In
turning the boys over to the Juvenile
court, Mr.. Allen stated that their
mother was dead and that their faith
er was dissolute and worthless, hav-
ing gone off and left the boys with
out anyone to care for them. Hav-
ing large family of his own and
being a poor man he did not feel able
to assume the additional burden so
asked the court to take charge Of the
boys.
One is IS and the other seven. Both
are bright looking little fellows and
the aid society will probably have no
difficulty in finding good homes for
both of them.
