ZINC RECOVERY PLANTS.

To estimate a profit of $3.50 to S7 Ter ton on some 2O,0O0 tons of mate
 ial that not so many years ago would have been con sidered waste, too cost ly 10 ship from the mine and heavily Tenalized by smelters, is suggestive of the progress that has been made in ere treatment. Tbe expected profit
 II ted is calculated on middlings" rem the Daly-Judg@ m'no in Utah. which assays from 25 to 35et zinc, 2 10 go lead and to oz. silver per ton, and which will be treated at the new zinc recovery plant of the Grass ell Chemical Co. at Park City, Utah. WSat the Grasselli Co. will make on tLe deal is not known, but judging by the experience of similar plants in their early stages, the mechanical de fleets invariably reduce profits to a pcirt which would ordinar ly discour- age competition. Still the efforts of Inc Grasse'h Co. may prove more sue csssfgl thaa it's predecessors. and even if they don't the industry would no doubt benefit by the experience at Inc Park City plant
 Inc idenially attention might be called to the start ng up of the Snyder SiftttitI dL Nel.OI. British Columbia. which will handle zinc ores that have heretofore been clipped for treatment to lola. Kansas. and Pueblo. Colorado. The saving in freight and duty on the zinc ores sent to American smeiters will be not far from S30 per ton. It remains to be seen if the Snyder process as em- ployed n British Columbia and which was described in The Mining World for November g, 1907, vii prove a commercial success. If it fulfills the expectations of It's supporters. then the plant at Nelson, B. C.. will not want for zinc ores as there gre many Slocan silver-lead mines now iG'e which could be re-opened.
 Any venture that W Il aid in solving a problem of so great economic i'm pcrtance to mining as the separation of zinc from ores that are not Poasl 'zeo by smeliers' should be encour- aged.

PROPOSED GOOD ROADS
 ARE BADLY NEEDED

The Florence Blade states that an automobile road from Benson down the San Pedro river, via Mammoth and Florence to Phoenix is now en- gazing the attention of Cochise coun- ty autoists. A good wagon road now follows this route and it would re- quire but small expenditure on the road from Benson to Mammoth and from the latter piece to Florence, would convert 1t into an ideal auto thoroughfare. Only a few hundred dollars expended on the road be tween Florence and Mesa would make 1t first-class. It would be al most an airline from Benson to Phoe- nix by this proposed route. But au- toists would form tho smallest mum Der of beneficiaries of such a road. IL would make the most direct thor Jughfare, In fact the only practical route, from all parts of the north and central to the southern centers ot population of the territory. From Benson 10 Florence every mile of the road would pass through the centC
 of prosperous and populous agT' cultural and mining settlements and afford them an easy outlet to the
 
 vantage to which as tax payers and contributors to the general prosperity of the territory they are justly en. titled. All travel from the northern part to the southern part of the terri tory must first come to Phoenix and thence to Florence, as the surface conhguration of the country make this the only practical route for a general territorial road. From Flor ence the travel to Cochise and Ora ham counties would take the road to Mammoth and Benson, and the travel to Pima and Santa Cruz counties would take the road from Florence 10 Tucson, already a perfect automobile road, level as a ioor all the way. From Tucson they could proceed up the Santa Cruz valley to Nogales and intervening towns and mining camps. This would also be practically an air line from Phoenix to Tucson and No. gales. From this road, at Red Rock, there is a graded road out to the great shelter camp of Sasco, distant, eight miles. As before stated, il will cost but little to make this great ter ritorial thoroughfare perfect one and there is urgent necessity for the immediate completion Of it. No other public improvement would confer such general and continuous benefits as would this great thorough. fare. The road will call for wagon bridges across the Salt river at Tem pc and Tacross the Gila river at Flor ence, of course, as both of these streams are subject to regular flood periods each season and cannot be ''forded" for weeks at a time. The citizens of Phoenix and Tempe are now raising a fund by subscription for the purpose of constructing . wagon bridge across the Salt river at the latter place. As that section is populous and prosperous it Is am ply able to carry the undertaking to success. At Florence the conditions are different This Is a poor and small community at present and un able 10 raise funds for public i'm

provements. Furthermore. the entire territory is directly interested in the construction of a bridge here for the use and convenience of the new ter ritorial prison now building at this place. Every county will be com pelled to send it's criminals. sen. tenced to the territorial prison across the Gila river at Florence and delays fin crossing the stream would be expensive to the counties. to say nothing of the increased opportunity it would give prisoners to escape. The increased expense thus incurred would soon amount to more than the cost of a bridge. An appropriation of s19,0OO was made for this purpose by the Heating bill and the next leg islature should add $21.00O more to the appropriation, making the total s40.0OO. an amount greater than the highest estimate submitted by com. potent engineers for an absoluteiy safe steel bridge.

ENVOY FROM Fl PASOANS
 IS CO MING
C. A. Beers To Be Here In Day
 Or Two To Perfect Arrange
 ments for Excursion to Pass City Country Club Opening.

C. A. Beers, representing the Fl Paso Country club will be in B sbee this week to Grrange for the games which are to be played at the opening of the country club at the Pass Ch, the 18th of this month. He is doing al in his power to get the teams lined up in Douglas and Bisbee and says that this will be one Of the best con tests winch has ever been played in the southwest.
 The following. taken from the Doug las Dispatch upon this question, will be of interest to all:
 C. A Beers, member of tie staff of the Fl Paso Times and one of the first directors in the Fl PasO Country club, arrived in the city yesterday fol the purpose of awakening the inter est of Douglas and Warren Country club members in the formal opening of the Fl Paso Country club the m d. dle of this month. Mir Beers found the interest of the Douglas contingent wide awake and sitting up to take notice, but his visit and the warm aud hearty assurance which he gives of the welcome which awaits the visitors to the Pass c ty on the 18th. 16t1f anu l7th. is none the less appreciated, and the mere mention that he is from the Fl Paso Country. clubseannot but add 10 the warmth of the welcome that awaits him here.
 Mir. Beers called at the Dispatch Of flee yesterday afternoon and was much pleased to learn that a team was chos- en with applicants for position on it to spare, that the trip to Fl Paso had been looked forward to with pleasura- Lle interest for months and that Douglas will send a b g delegation to her older sisters coming out party He will remain in the city several days. will go up to Bisbee to see about the sending of a delegation. and to assure them Of the welcOm which also awaits them is especially anxious to arrange for tGe photograph ng of the Douglas team so that a picture CT be run in the Times during the visit of the Douglas contingent to the Pas City, as the DOuglas-El PasO match for the southwestern golf championship trophy is a feature of their opening celebration.
 Speaking of the new golf course the Fl Pasoan sad that it was a great improvement over the old and that with the opening of play on it ended the old permission of teeing up through the greens and that now the game of golf was played strictly on the rules He stated that the home tean would have but little advantage over Douglas in the way of familiarity with the course, and that from what he had heard of the Douglas team he thought a hot match was to be ex- pected. When told of the great stride the local players have made recently Mir. Beers expressed surpE' SC and stat ed that under those circumstances a Douglas victory would not surprise him in the least.

HOME IF THE
 COUNTRY CLUB
 OF Il PASOANS
Building Is lust Completed
 Valued at 45,000--Loca-
 ton Ideal-Formal Opening 18th inst. To Be Swell Affair
(EI Paso Times.)


 The new Fl Paso Country Club building. admirably situated on Grand View. is a monument to the enter prise of the men who compose it's membership and an evidence that tne Southwest is turning its attention to society and luxuries, as it has turned its attention to money making. The club both inside and out is probably the handsomest of it's kind west of St. Louis.
 The location is ideal. just far enough from the city to be out of the range of the noise and hustle. and on a site that affords a commanding view of the surrounding country.
 The new building replaces one near Washington park which was the first home of the club.
 The old home was remodeled into club house shortly after the club was organized. in April. 1906. The men most active Tn organizing it were E. E. Neff, Waters Davis anu Owen White.
 Mir. Neff was one of the principal promoters of the idea and he and Mir White circulated . list to secure members at an entrance fee of s15. After 100 members had pledged theI support, an old house and site near Washington park were purchased. Under the supervision of Neff and White the old house was remodeled and made habitable as a club house.
 The first board of directors which served during the infaney of the cluD is as follows: Waters Davis. E. E. Neff, T. M Wingo. o. P. White, c. A. Beers, F. Move, W. T. Hixson, s. J. Larkin. J. F. Williams, Van c. Will son and w. E. Race.
 As the membership grew and the club became more popular, the neces- sity of having a larger and more handsome home became evident. Then the members conceived the idea of having site on Grand View. Com. mittees were set to work and within a short time such site was found
 It did not take long to get to work, wth the result the Fl Paso Country Club Is one of the handsomest build ings in these parts.
 The club at present has a mem bership of 300, and 50 nonresident members. with forty on the waiting list. The initiation fee is $50 and the annual dues $50. They have a home valued at s45.l0O
 Although the home has been occu- pied almost ten days, the formal opening is not to take place until January 15, 16 and IT when a big goli tournament in which Bisbee, Douglas and Fl Paso will take part. will be played here. The opening will be a most suspicious one, and will surpass anything ever attempted by the club before. A big ball will be given on one of the nights and the visitors will be entertained during the three days Following the formal opening dances will be given at the club ev, cry Saturday night, both winter and summer

CREEK CHRISTMAS TODAY.

NEW YORK, Jan. 7.-The mem bers of the Greek colony in New York. whose numbers have been in- creasing rapidly in recent years, eel ebrated their Christmas festival to- day. Because the Julian calendar, by which the Greeks and Russians have conducted their affairs for many centuries, is fully thirteen days be- hind the one in general use in Amer lea, the Greek and Russian children are obliged to wait impatientIy for nearly two weeks after the neighbors have had their Christmas to cele- brate The Greek observance of Christmas as a rule is not a very elaborate affair. The exchange Of presents is deferred generally until the Easter celebration. The Greek usually spends his Christmas at home with his family, and never fails to attend at least one religious service during the day.

GOLD PRODUCTION lN Is:plA.

The output ct the Indian gold mines in October was 1882 oz. in excess oi the average fer the previous ninc months. Rut for nearly the whole oi the incresse fog that month the My. sore was responsible, owing to the starting of 30 additional stamps An, ether mine increased its output by s9 oz., obta'ned from the treatment of 100 tons more ore than in Septem- Der. While Gamenon, the Champion Reef, milled 160 tons more than in October, It's yield was only oz. larg. CT, and the treatment of 50 additia1al tons by the Balaghat only resulted In adding oz. to that min's output. Al lowing for an increased production in November and December equal to that of October, the total output of 1908 will not reach that of 1904. 6l6,S3S oz.; 62S,4I5 oz., of 1906, 577, ,26O oz-, and ..iil little more than equal that of 1907. 549.235 oz.

Will not be made until Wednesday
The Weather Bureau reports that there is like

north winds. The weather for Wednesday, Il
was reported last night would probably be fair,
while high winds promised for tomorrow
Should the wind from the north be gentle the
conditions will be ideal for the flights as the

Major General Wood TO take charge OF the ar
rangements by which every section OF New

OF the aviators at Governors Island.
Wireless telegraph will play the most impor-
tant part in giving the news OF the Hudson

contestants are ready for the flight the operator
at the island will inform the entire feet OF war
vessels and the offices of the wireless companies
Another code word will give warning To- the
operators in the navy yard and at the land sta
