VISITS ZINC PROPERTIES.
John J. Eiehkern of Hancock, Inspeots
Work at Zinc Mines.

| John j. Eichkern, of this city, is at
present at Dodd City, Arkansas, on "a
brief visit of inspection of the property
of the Arkansas and Superior Zinc
pool, in which a number of Calumet
and other copper country people are
interested. Mr.. Elchkern writes that
he arrived in Dodd City Thursday
noon and spent the afternoon with a
drilling machine by means of which
the ground is being explored That
which has been penetrated is a species
of marble, which, however. Is not Of
n commercial grade. The rock Is ex-
ceedingly hard and only five feet were
penetrated on the day mentioned, CIV
ing the hole a total depth of 81 feet
six inches in diameter.
The country all around is covered
with prospecting shafts where the peo-
pie that located claims had to prove
that they developed mineral before
they could get patents from the gov
eminent. About every ten acre lot
seems to have a shaft upon 1t.
Southeast OF Dodd City a party of
Hollanders took hold of a property a
short time ago and are now producing
ten to twelve tons of zinc ore every
shift and are now working double
shift as the market for the mineral
is pretty high. The natives of the To-
callty, it was said, nearly laughed
themselves sick at the foolish Dutch
men," as they called them, for taxi
inS hold OF the property but now they
are more than glad because they are
employing about forty men to each
shaft, which is the means OF distribut-
ing considerable money in the dis
trict.
The country resembles that between
Houghton and Greenland very much.
except that the Ozarks are not a con-
tinuous ridge, but a succession Of lof-
ty hills with deep valleys in all d.
rections. The railroad passes through
three tunnels in few miles, two of
which are three quarters of a mile
long.
