COPPER DEVELOPS IN
TIE COMANCHE CHIEF
WINZE WILL BE SUNK ON RICH
ORE BODY
Seventeen Per Cent Copper Carries
Heavily in Gold, Silver and Lead.
Management Will Push
Work

PARADISE, July 18.-The ore re-
Gently struck in the tunnel on the
Comanche Chief claim of the Capt.
John A. Duncan group proved to be
rich in copper. The returns from one
sample were as follows:
Gold 81, silver $1.50 copper 1712 per
cent, lead "a per cent.
This ore appeared in a little streak in
the bottom of the drift for ten or
twelve feet.
Arrangements are being made to sink
a winze on this rich ore on com
pleting the connection now being made
between the main crosscut tunnel and
the old 112-foot inclined shaft.
Sinking cannot be started for about
six weeks, however, as the shaft is
approximately forty feet distant and
the miners rate of progress in the
connecting drift is one foot day
only, which is as great as could be
expected in tine ground now being en-
countered.
The formation is lime at present. 1t
is not very hard, but breaks so easily
that great deal of tramming Is ne
cessary. Otherwise, better progress
could be made.
AS expected, the drift has passed out
of the ore. But, as it was in full
face of ore for thirty-tiYe feet pun-
ming along with the vein), and as some
of the ore encountered at a depth of
100 feet has been found TO be of very
high grade, the outlook is extremely
bright

COPPER CREEK CAMP
SCENE OF STRIKE ON
TOP OF A MOUNTAIN

PRESCOTT July 1S-H. L. Fritz is
in the city from his camp in the Copper
Creek section of the Hassayampa dis
trict arranging to start a tunnel on a
vein on the apex, where he discovered
rich gold ore three months ago. The
property is located nine miles south
of the city.
The vein cuts through a high noun
tain, Offering an admirable tunnel site
for it's development. Mr.. Fritz proposes
to run the tunnel along the vein a dis
tance of $50 feet, where he expects to
gain a depth of at least 500 feet. The
rich find was made on the summit of
the mountain. A shaft was sunk on it
to a depth of twenty feet. The ore
shows in place in the bottom and is
high grade The ore shoot in which the
find was made will be tapped at dis
tance of 700 feet from the mouth OF the
tunnel.
The vein is a new discovery, no work
having ever been done on it before, al
though the district has been run over
by miners and prospectors since the
early sos

DETcH-BREWER LEASE
PREPARES TO OPERATE

GOLDFIELD, July 18.-Work of
cleaning away the waste and prepar-
ing for further development in the old
stOpe of the Detch- Brewer lease on the
Daisy, now under sub-lease from the
Daisy Leasing company to Millard and
Jones. Is in progress, and within a
short time the exploring of the recent
find of rich rock will start in earnest
Samples from which assays We're made
gave values of from $17.20 to $l69.60,
The first was taken from the 132-foot
level, in the sulphides, while the lat
for was taken four feet from where
the original rich stuff was first dis
covered by the sub-leasers.
The ore coming from the old stope
is within 65 feet of the surface, and Is
an oxidized ore. 1t is at TINS point
that the real work of development Will
heein. and where it is expected ship
ments will start within a short time
after the work is started.

YELLOW METAL PASSES
TO EASTERN COMPANY

NEVADA CITY, July 1S.-AL Keller,
Alex. Mcmillan and others who have
been developing the Yellow Metal
quartz property near Bowman's Dam
for the last few years, have interested
a strong Eastern company in the mine
II. H. Jack of Pennsylvania, who was
here recently, was so well pleased with
the Yellow Metal that arrangements
were made to erect a ten-stamp mll
on the property.
1t will be but a short time before a
mill is purchased and taken to the
mine. as the operators intend to erect
it this summer and have it running be-
fore next fall.
The Yellow Metal has large VEN
full of minerals and tests have peeh
made showing it to be conner Iue
owners have every confidence in their
mine and believe that it will prove to
he one of the best properties IN the
INNER part of the county.
The mill will be run by electric
mower, as a plant will be built above
the mine, there being an abundance OF
water for generating power.

shipping their ore does not pay very
well, especially when the smelters are
over a thousand miles away, and
many attempts have been made to
reach a solution of this perpleXing
problem.
Experiments Fourteen Years
Mr.. Cram has been at work for four
teen years on his process, and has
finally succeeded in finding the chemi-
cal in the ore which comes out of the
mine and which will treat and extract
copper from any grade Of ore at one
third the cost of smelling.
The plant consists of an electric en-
CINE, automatic mixers and grinders,
and tanks. The ore is first sent through
the rock crusher, then into the auto
matte grinders, which pulverize 1t;
then into an automatic agitator, where
II is thoroughly agitated ana mlNeq
with a secret solution and sent into
the teaching tanks by gravity In
the tanks is a copper plate on which
the solution with the copper In IL Is
poured and by the aid of electricity Is
plated on the copper plates. After the
solution is passed to the last tank al
the copper has been taken out, ano
then the solution is pumped back into
the first tank and used again. ana sc

The cost is much cheaper than a
smelter and a plant can be erected fol

specimen of what can be done for the
expenditure. ..

and when the railroad is finished
everything will be in readiness to
handle the product on the basis now
outlined.
Work on the new railroad from
Bouse continues and Notwithstanding
the intense heat prevailing progress
is being made. About four and one

when the weather moderates it is the
purpose of the contractors to rush this
work ahead with all possible effort.
Bv September climatic conditions will

CONTRACTS TO WORK
GLADIATOR PROPERTY

WICKENBURG, July 1S-Lester
Jackson has returned from the Glad
iator and War Eagle mines in the
Bradshaw mountains, where he let a
contract for 400 feet of drifting on the
vein. The drift will be run on the 500
foot level from the Gladiator shaft. 1t
will tap the veins underneath an ore
shoot which crops on the surface dis
tance of 1900 feet along the apex. The
shoot has been stopped to the surface
for a depth ranging from 100 to 400
feet. The vein produced large ton
mage of high grade ore in the early
days of mining in the Bradshaw noun
tains.
The Gladiator and War Eagle vein
is considered important in the fissure
vein system of that part of the county

n EPORTS from Swansea are to the
X effect that the big smelter of the
~ Clara Consolidated Mining COM
pany is nearing completion. Adjust
ments are being made of all the ma
chinery at the place, and in few
months it will be ready for blowing in.
The plant is said to have capacity Of
treating 300 tons of ore in day,
and was constructed to especially
treat the ores of that property. The
tonnage ahead of the plant is said to
be abundant, and an estimate of the
bodies in sight in the stope gives a
supply of at least two years ahead.
1t is very probable that test runs
will be made to try out the various
mechanical features of the plant, be
fore starting up on permanent
basis. The Intention of the manage
ment is TO begin the practical op-
Grafton of the smelter as soon as
the railroad reaches the place, It be-
ing impracticable to operate it Oh
any scale other than testing, owing tg
wagon transportion in and out. In

INCREASE PRODUCTION
FOR MONTH OF JUNE

BISBEE. July 1S.-The copper pro
ducing properties Of Phelps, Dodge q
Co. turned out during the month OF
june 100000 pounds more than in the
preceding month, or total of ll2oo'ooo
pounds.
From the Copper Queen smelter there
were produced 100000 pounds Wnlcn
includes the output of the Moctezuma
copper company also owned by Phelps,
Dod.e & GO. This ore is shipped by
railroad some seventy miles to the
Copper Queen smelter. Some years ago
the Copper Queen smelter produced in
the neighborhood of 100000 pounds a
month.
The Detroit Copper company produced
approximately 100000 pounds, COM
pairing with 100000 pounds in May.
This output is about as large as this
company ever turned out in single

pounds of gravel, and every panning at
that particular point in the. drift gave
values ranging from S1.25 to as high as
twenty-six pennyweight a PAN The
gold is very coarse and ranges from tho
size of mustard seed to nuggets that
weighed sixteen pennyweight. At the
time of writing this the extent of this
rich deposit is not known, but even if
it is all taken out in day it is en-
tirely satisfactory to the people of
Manhattan, as it demonstrates that
there will be found pockets and de-
posits which will make the individual
operator wealthy. This is the best
gravel found SO far in the gulch and it
brings the center of high values about
one mile nearer the town.
The result of this discovery has been
to arouse local interest to a pitch not
heretofore attained. and already the
story has brought in persons from the
outside who wish to get in on some-
thing in the gulch

From present indications this week
has been the quiet before the storm
so far as society is concerned. While
there has been very few social affairs,
either of a formal or informal nature,
it is reported that every afternoon
and evening of next week is to be
filled with one or more events of a
social nature. Some are to be for
NAL, while others are to be decidedly
informal.
Mrs. c. ]. Smith of this city is in
receipt of an innvitation from Mrs.
F. W. Benson, wife of the governor
Of Oregon, asking her to assist Mrs.
Benson as hostess at the Seattle fair
June IS, the day the oregon building
is to be dedicated. Apparently the
proposition of Oregon hostesses at the
fair is still an unsettled one as a re-
suit of the controversy between Mrs.
Evans, as president of the Oregon
Federation of Woman's Clubs, and
President W. H. Wehrung of the
OIGkOll COLllDllSSlOlls LOIttl
is with Mrs Evans, as it is generally
known that she and her assistants
had spent much time in working out
an elaborate system of entertain
ment by the oregon hostesses, con-
sisting of club women, from every
city in the state, which would have
been a decided credit to oregon and
Oregon women. While 1t is possible
that the fair commission will succeed
in working out a system which will
be just as successful, there is much
doubt of it in the minds of Pendle-
tons club women.
One of the big events of the week
from the standpoint of those in the
younger set is the two-day picnic
which is now in progress in a grove
on Mckay creek, about six miles from
Pendleton. A jolly group Of high
school girls and former high school
girls, those who formerly belonged to
the local sorority, were taken to the
grove yesterday afternoon on a big
hayrack. The party is being chap
eroned by Mrs. T. NJ. Henderson. The
girls not only spent last evening in
the grove, but remained all night,
and will stay there all day today and
tonight and will not return home un-
til tomorrow afternoon. Tomorrow
they will entertain a number of boy
friends at a chicken dinner. This is
the second picnic by this crowd of
girls in the same place in as many
weeks, the success of last weeks one

Is being carried out on more elab-
