EXTE \ n IS
SINKING
SHAFT

The management of the Bisbee Elk
tension made an important move yes
terday when they ceased the work Of
drifting on the present levels and
started work on sinking the shafts
deeper. This is the information
which was obtainable last night when
sixteen men who have been working
underground came in from the prop
erty. This leaves five men on the
work which is a sufficient force to
do the work of sinking.
A message came to Bowen and
Hubbard yesterday to send out rigs
to bring in sixteen men from the
Bisbee Extension property and these
were sent, leaving Bisbee shortly be-
fore 2:30 and returning little after
u last night. Then it was learned
what the cause of the lay-off Of so
large a proportion o fthe force was.
The Extension has been drifting
for some time past and has obtained
all the information which they re-
quired by that exploration work on
the present levels. 1t was therefore
determined to go down hundred, feet
further and to continue drifting on
that level along the lines indicated by
the results obtained from the drifting
work which as just been completed.
When the additional depth has been
obtained the work of drifting is to be
resumed and probably with larger
force of workmen.
With the machinery and equipment
which the Bisbee Extension now has.
it is practical impossibility to drift
and sink at the same time and hence
the lay-off of the sixteen underground
men.

COPPER MARKET
HAS DECIDED
DEMAND
BY Frank ]. Graf.
Member Duluth Stock Exchange.

MSMpST Ouutu OlVSN A~ASA's-1S
Today's copper market shows a de-
cided Improvement with better de-
mand for copper shares. The cop
per metaf farket remains unchanged,
however. Amalgamated, North Butte,
Copper Range and Old Dominion were
firm. Allouez, Centennial were the
features of the Boston list. The New
York list shows a much healthier
market for all Hartman stocks as
well as Steel common. The Curb list
shows very little change. Shattuck
which was very strong yesterday, was
not quite as active today. DEM Ari-
iona is firm at ATS. Sierra Con.
Mines shows better strength, sales
being made at IL. l firmly believe
that an exchange from Greene Can.
to Sierra Con. would be good move,
and there is every reason TO believe
that Sierra Con. will see 800 before
Greene Can. will sell at 1900, and
1t is easier to move 100000 shares
than it is to move 100000 shares.
Should Saturday and Monday be hol-
idays the market should show slight
reaction tomorrow.

Such speculations would seem to be-
long to the school of novelistic dream
ers of the future. However, they are
soberly advanced as matters not very
far over the future horizon by Col
Frederic y. Maude, c. B., a military
authority and lecturer in military his
tory at Manchester university, in Eng
land.
1t appears to Col Maude, writing in
the Contemporary Review, that the
invention of the electric gun is the
greatest discovery of the age. 1t is
the invention of Mr.. Simpson, former
ly known as a metallurgical expert 1t
is unlike any gun ever known, since It
has no recoil. The lay mind can
hardly conceive the possibility of a
projectile leaving a gun at terrific
speed, yet having no backward push.
Whether powder or compressed air
is used in the ordinary gun, there is
a powerful recoil, propoTtionate to the
charge and the weight of the weapon.
1t may be surmised that the electric
projectile is not driven, but drives it
self by means of propellers, constitut.
ing an aerial torpedo or self-directed
aeroplane of destruction.
There is no sound or smoke. The
initial velocity is 10000 feet a second.
This is travelling close to six miles a
second, a speed heretofore undreamed
of for projectile5 of any sort.
Half a mile second is about the
limit for powder-driven projectiles
The electric weapon is able to propeI
missiles OF any desirable dimensions
and weight up to 1000 pounds.
1t is imaginable that at a distance
of so miles the velocity would be suf
ficieDt to bore any battleship or build
ing with a solid proiectile, while the
mere conveyance of high explosives
at a greater range would be sufficient
ly destructive.
1t is assumed that 200 miles will be
the effective range At this estimate

ECONOMY IN A LONDON INN.
Doubtful" Fish Served to Those
Guests Who Have Cold in
tic Head.

Mr.. Craig Wadsworth, one Of the
secretaries to the embassy at London,
tells how an American, who was jour
neying through the midland counties
Of England, encountered in a certain
town rather pretentious inn, at which
he ordered turbot-a favorite dish in
those parts.
The American had had few days Of
dense fog, and his appearance and
manner perhaps showed that he had be-
come little wheezy in consequenceSof
the climate. He was, indeed, forced to
have frequent recourse to his handker-
chief.
When the turbot was brought the
guest fancied, even before it reached
his plate, that it was no longer fresh;
and an attempt to eat It confirmed that
impression. He called the proprietor,
who at once sent waiter for fresh
turbot and removed the Objectionable
dish.
II beg your pardon, sir" said the
inn-keeper, but we got the idea, sir.
as you came in, that you 'ad bad cold
in your cad, sir"
And suppose had? What would
that have to do with my being served
spoiled fish," demanded the indignant
traveller.
"Heverythink, sir. We as this rule

lost the flavor Of youth, as | may say

fish just as well. sir, and hoften they

WHERE WAS GARDEN OF EDEN?
learned Men Differ Widely In the
Location Of the First Dwelling
Place on Record.

Students of Biblical lore and geog-
raphers have located the Garden of
Eden in many places on the earth in
the last few hundred years. So ex-
cellent an authority on oriental his
tory as Prof Robert w. Rogers of the
Drew Theological seminary has def
nitely placed it in the circumscribed
region lying between the Iigris and
Euphrates. He says he does so with
the full authority of the Bible.
In the course of his oriental re-
search Prof. Rogers found that the
Biblical references to the Garden OF
Eden seemed to indicate that 1t must
have been In the region between the
two rivers mentioned He points to
the fact that in the Biblical story Of
Eden appears the statement that a
river watering the garden was divided
and became four heads, the last of the
four being Euphrates. The Euphrates
rises in the Armenian mountains. and,
uniting with the Tigris, flows into the
Persian gulf.
Christopher Columbus though. that
Eden was in Venezuela, and 30 in
formed the Spaniards. One or two
other explorers of years gone by con-
tended that the garden was on the
island of Ceylon, the reason being
simply that they found there a noun
tain called Adams Peak.
The search for the Holy Grail occu-
pied the time of the middle ages in
great part, but with the final abandon
ment of that quest the hunt for the
Garden Of Eden became a popular
pastime. In the early stages of this
it was located in many different
places, among them being Armenia,
Utopia, Atalantis, and a prehistoric
continent somewhere. One savant
placed il close to the African equator.
