Police DOES Useful in Parks.

In the Amsterdam and Harlem
parks and woods the police dog is in
valuable and has already saved many
woman and child from molestation
The idea that such dogs are about
causes a wholesome dread in the
minds of would-be criminals. 1t is
hoped that The Hague will also soon
be favored with canine additions to
the police force, for the extensive
parks and woods are often rendered
dangerous by tramps and other unde.
sirable individuals.

CENTENNIAL IN
MORE GOOD ORE

A new discovery, the second since
work was begun a week G yester-
day, was made on the property of the
Ely Centennial Copper company Sun
day, when a very promising vein of
copper ore was encountered in the
tunnel being driven. The new find,
which is a blind vein, no signs of it
being visible on the surface, runs
parallel and about one hundred feet
down the hlIl from the big ledge on
which a strike was made a few days
previously.
The new ledge just encountered
dips to the east and first showed up
in the bottom of the tunnel against
the black lime hanging wall. AS
work proceeds, the showing in the
face improves, and conditions are
present to indicate that the discovery
is n of Importance. In several days
time 1t will be possible to gain some
idea of the extent of the find. Work
continues with all possible despatch
on the first strike made OF the prop
erty and there is a steady improve
ment. A shaft will be started as soon
as the present plan of fully exploring
the lodges on the surface is COM
pleted.

MARKETS, MINING AND METALS
ELY CON. WILL
BEGIN SHIPPING

S. M. Levy, president and general
manager of the Ely Consolidated
Copper Co., returned to his head
quarters in Salt Lake City yesterday
after a stay of several days inspect
ing the company's property here. He
was much pleased with the condi-
lions prevailing and announced that
he expects to make another visit in
the next fifteen days. Speaking of
the Ely Consolidated, Mr.. Levy said:
THE property continues to look as
good as anticipated, in fact, better.
We have started a Wine on the ore
on the 400 foot level from the Bril-
liant shaft, principally for the pur-
pose of getting a more accurate idea
of the dip of the ore so that we can
get it more expeditionsly on a new
lower level, which VIZ propose to
run. The shaft has a total depth of
625 feet, but the location of the new
level will depend upon the dip of the
ore as disclosed in the Wine just
started. However, it is probable that
the new level will be run from the
500-foot station. We will sink the
winze to the water Level and then put
in pumps to drain the water, which
is 200 feet deep in the shaft. We will
then follow the ore further down and
run the new level.
1--WE are also preparing to begin
shipments. The first car will prob
ably go out this week and following
shipments will most likely be on
tinuous. This first shipment of ore
from the Brilliant workings will be
SEN to the Salt Lake market. The
assays run we'll and in making the
first shipment we wish to determine
the average of the ore. The values
of gold and silver are good and, If
they hold up, will alone pay all ex-
penses.
''In the lack shaft, there is a
marked improvement. We have just
encountered a vein in a crosscut
forty feet from the shaft on the 400
level. 1t will require several days
more work to determine its extent
and Importance. This crosscut was
run with the expectation of catching
the vein on the dip but it has been
found standing perpendicular. We
have not yet gotten assay returns on
the new find, but the same vein in a
drift at depth of 375 feet gives re-
tuTuS VI lIOLu "a W ~ pei SCht III
copper, with small gold and silver
values.
Just as soon as we can get a dia-
mond drill, we propose to drill in the
bottom of the lack shaft. 1t is our
wish to get a drill of sufficient capac-
ity to sink four or five hundred feet.
Drifts are being run both ways on
the $50 foot level of the American
shaft on a very promising assure
vein, showing high values in lead
| and silver. A recent assay taken
! across IS inches contained So per
cent lead and 81 ounces in silver.
Capper values around 7h per cent
have been obtained from the same
vein but at a different point in the
drift. We have drifted 40 feet on
this vein so far, following the foot
wall, with no hanging wall exposed

The market opened quite weak
yesterday, although this was nothing
unsual as the opening and closing
days of each week have long been
given credit as the weak sisters"
All of the issues showed small de-
clineS, but there was nothing alarm
ing in their downward tendency. We
predict the return to form in every
one of the local issues before the mid
die of the week. Calumet and Nc
Donald again showed considerable
activity, in spite of the markets gen
eral shortcomings and Ely Centennial
bids fair to rival them all as soon as
this issue finds it's way into the
trading.

C0PPERS ARE
GOOD TO BUY

The weeks opening indicated
h~esitancy; also it looked as if there
hight be more shorts and weak ones
to shake out before resumption of
the upgrade movement for a pro
tracted period. More strength is
looked for today. Coppers at pres
ent prices represent excellent buys.
They may be bought a little cheaper
before the next high level is moved
to, but whether SO or not they will
show handsome profits before the end
of the year if taken around present
prices.
