STEEL TUNNEL SETS
 PROVE IMPRAC1|CAl

On April 22 the Copper queen III stalled in drift 3-101 on the soo ioo' level of the Holbrook, some steel tuh- nel sets as an experiment. These sets were composed of steel l beams OK 12 in. These were found to be i'm, nracficable in swelling ground, ana they were replaced by another steer set which consisted of double praeke, beams Sx2x14 in, and were connecteu together by steel pins 2 in. in diamster nv s in. long. These did not last as l long as the I beams, and are now be | ing replaced by the old standby ore gon fir, 12x12s.
 The I beams and the double brack a. heams twisted out of shape in three
 weeks time: then they squeezed eo rether. finally breaking.
 There are some of these sets in ths office as souvenirs of what the Cop
 ner Queen has to contend with. Aite these sets bend. twist or break the. . are only good for old scrapiron- Whii , inc 12x12 timbers after they are crush ,, ed or broken can be used as bulkhea { timbers. stulls. blocks or cribbing- l, Therefore the timber has proven tn 2 most economical, besides they last 2 most twc-thirds as long again as th a steel sets.

BUTTE, Mont, July 31.-A sensa- tional rumor is current here of i'm. pending litigation between the Amal- gamated and w. A. Clark. Amalga- mated has served notice on Clark to cease mining beyond certain lines 1T. the Stuart and Original mines, the only big producers now owned by MT. Clark. Amalgamated claims ore un- der some unusual boundary conten- ton. Clark has refused to pay any atteation to the notice. as for years the largest portion of his ore has come from points beyond the lines in question. The rumor is we'll found- ed. but the interested parties refuse to discuss 1t.

 shsftuek and Oenn.
 Latest reports from the Shattuck are that the ore bodies are opening up better every day on the 500 level. where the body had been opened in a isoatherly direction in No. II crosscut. The work in No. II has progressed over 300 feet southerly and nearly 25D westerly, and several raises have been put at this level to determine how far the ore body will carry. No. 9 has been put up to the fifth level and shows a thickness of the ore bods here of 55 feet This was firss thought better than would be the av- craze, but such has not proved to be the case, as No. 19 raise has been pst up beyond the fifth level, and is still carrying the same grade of ore. The ore taken out in this develop ment work has averaged IT per cent or better With copper at 13 cents this ore should net 5000 per ton and nef the company approximately s6,, 000 900, and these figures are based solely on the ore body so far as open ed up only.
 On the 700 level work is going on in crosscut No. 2, and on this and the 500 level about 75e.0oo tops of ore running to 10 per cent fs in sight. while on the 300 level 50 fo 55 feet of { 411s per cent sulphides have been opened.
 The DeRn is still in good ore on the 1250 level, and its crosscuts and drifts and the ground is the bes. yet worked By this mine. Still better results are expected with 100 or 200 feet more depth. as indicated by the fine results that are obtained in the nearby Juno tion shaft on the fourteenth and fif- teensb levels. As 1t is now Denn is ready to ship and pay its way on de- velopmept work. which was not possi. tle heretofore.

ACTIVITY IS DISPLAYED. IN COPPER ClDfEN SHAFTS
 Latest Report cd Shattvck and Denn Proper ties is EEnouraeme as to Amount of Commercial Ore Available

Tl< pas: weas showed more activity in and around the Copper Queen shafts than it has for some time, which should be very encouraging news
 At the Lexssll .thes are showing mp some great bodies of sulphides on fhe 1900 level and haze connected with the winxe which was sunk from the 1900 levd some time agp. This winze WAS in ore all the way down and as the 1400 has ore in the bottom of the shaft that means that nbe Low ell must so down fnrter to get in un- der these ore bodies. The drift from the Sacramento to the Lowell, n the 400 is being driven from both eBds. This will be used for motor track to haul the ore to the Sacramento. At the present time the Lowell is produc- ing 1000 cars of ore a day. which is 200 cars better than they ever did be- fore.
 The Sacramento.
 At the Sacramento shaft the ma D hoisting shaft of the Queen. they are Mting more ore than ever, and there is considerable developing work going on at this place. This shaft is now passing the 1900 mark. and will go OF down to the 1700, whes the 1900 sta tioH will be cut and the ore pockets put in for the skips. On the 40e they are running two prospect drifts. one back up under Sacramento Hill and the other out under the Johnson Addi- tion.
 The Spray.
 At this shaft they are taking down the big steel shaft house, which gives this place different appearance. The removal of this house gives better mine ventilation. which is very i'm. portant factor for greater production The underground workings of this shaft has cooled off wonderfully. and now the Spray has the reputation of being the best place to work in.

ouSlv have done SO in the secrecy OF
the club, as they call 1t; they would
not be seen drinking publicly, but
thev do it in the club rooms.
Up to 1850 there had been no pro-
hibition in Name. In that year there
in the penitentiaries of that State
100 convicts. or III conyicts to ev-
cry million of population. Between
1880 and 1860 prohibition became
the law of the State, and in the lat
ter year the number of criminals had
increased to 225, or 35S to every
million of population. The number
OF criminals further increased in
1870 to 261, in 1880 to 4O3 and in
1904 to 1876, or 10 700 convicts for
every million of population.
There were, therefore, III Maine
in 1904. after fifty Years of prohibi-
ton, more than tom times as ma0y
criminals for every million popula-
ton as there were in the same State
before 1t had prohibition.
The United States census,
show that three only of the !
of the Union have ever suffered Il
decrease in population One of these,
Nevada, is mining State exclusive
ly, and the tluctuation in its popula-
tien is due to the transient nature of
mining population, which comes and
goes us mining excitement arises or
subsidies.
The two other States suffering a
decrease in population, Maine and
New Hampshire, We're prohibition
States, and the loss occurred during
a decade OF intense prohibitory agi-
tation. This might seem merely in
cidental, if it were not given signiti-
canoe by the more general fact that
all States, without exception, which
have adopted prohibitory laws nave
increased in population less Rapidly
after their adoption than before, and
also by the fact that in ajority Of
the States the repeal of the law was
followed by al increased percentage
of growth in population over that
enjoyed by them under prohibition.
These statements could be demon
strated by an analysis of the census
reports, but it would consume too
much space to make the demonstra.
ton. FARMER No ,.
