fired the last round of holes which would break out the remaining six feet of ground left between the bottom of the shaft and the top of the upraise.
 This shaft was filled to a depth of 700 feet with water and with the many long levels driven out from the shaft summed up over seven miles of water to flow through the Burleigh tunnel.
 When all was in readiness the fuse was lighted, which burned about fifty minutes before reaching the explosive. In the meantime the men rushed to the bulkhead and made their exit through the cylinder, closing both ends with two-inch steel plates secure ly fastened with bolts. This consum- ed only 12 minutes. They then made their escape through the tunnel, a distance of 5000 feet, gaining the en- trance just before the water came rushing out with tremendous force.
 It was calculated that the bulkhead would hold back the water and then it could be drawn of gradually through four-inch pipe which passed through the top of the bulkhead and out of the tunnel.
 When the explosion occurred it opened the shaft, as had been planned, but the water came with such force that it shot the cylinder through the bulkhead, shattering the bulkhead to fragments. The rush of water carried everything before it-timbers, rocks, and sand piled up in a confused mass, filling the Burleigh tunnel to within one to two feet of the top of its entire distance. Workmen have been remov- ing the debris for about 10 months and recently the cylinder was discovered. It was found that both steel plates were crushed as though they were pa- per. Manager Tarkington estimates the pressure was 5000 pounds to the square inch when the concussion of air struck the bulkhead.
 The cylinder has been placed on concrete base in front of the Burleigh mill as an object of curiosity to tour ists and others.-Denver Mining Rec ord.

Shift Boss Saves Miners by Quick
 Action During Fire.

The Pinos Altos mine, nine miles from Silver City, N. M., formerly own by the Hearst estate, but recently sold to the Rio Tinto Mining company, has been on fire for several days and the drift timbers and shafting in the man shaft are burning. The shaft was bulkheaded to stop the spread of the fire.
 Engineers F. W. Todd and A. A. Frank, of Fl Paso, left Saturday even- ing for the mine to assist in the work of fighting the fire.
 The Rio Tinto company, which owns the Pinos Altos mine, also owns valu- able mining properties near Terrazas. Chihsi. The company is composed of Messrs. Corrigan, Mckinney and con- pany, of Cleveland, Ohio.
 Had it not been for the thoughtful action of the shift boss, Wm. Fetch CT in rushing into the tunnel level and throwing timbers across the shaft, preventing the rapid spreading of the fire, the men in the fourth and fifth levels would probably have all met a

Water DemoIishes BuIkhead.

Last December when tbe Seven Thirty shaft at Silver Plume, Colorado, was unwatered, the management built a concrete bulkhead seven feet high. four feet wide and five feet thick in the crosscut tunnel driven from the main tunnel level to get directly under the Seven-Thirty shaft. A place was selected in the narrowest part of the tunnel about five hundred feet from where the upraise was driven to tap the bottom of the shaft, where there was solid granite walls on all sides of the tunnel, at which to erect this bulk head. It was made of reinforced con- crete with the steel bars extending in- to the granite walls.
 Through the center of thls solid ma sorry a steel cylinder with fingers on each end two inches thick was placed. This arrangement was a precautionary measure to protect the men when they

to suggest that the reason for the sud- den advance may be found in the eff forts of Indian interests, led by the India Specie Bank, to corner the market. If usually reliable Eastern authorities are to be given credence, these interests have accumulated about 30, ,000, ,000 ounces in the belief that fa- vorable crop prospects in India and an excellent general outlook in the Or tent would stimulate the demand for the metal. For time all went well, but telegraphic dispatches printed in coast papers last Sunday bring word that no less than seven of the leading banks of Shanghai, China, have failed, and so it may be safely assumed that at least a portion of the optomistic out look has been obscured.
 Every movement of the metal within the past year has indicated manipula- tion, rather than increased and legi- timate demand. The low price for the year was 48.1 in March; early in July there was an advance to 55 1-2 cents and a decline the following month to 5. As this editorial is writ ten, the quotation stands at fraction less than 56. Considering all the cir cumstances, the Mining Review sees no reason to change it's opinion that the only hope for sustained improve ment lies in an international agree ment that will establish prices and do something tangible to maintain them. Such a Announcement seems entirely beyond the pale of possibility just at this time, and so there is little reason to hope for material gain in price. Business, at least in so far as it affects the arts, has not shown any disposition to increase to any appreciable extent; silver will, therefore, in all probabil- ity drop back from whence it rose a few short weeks ago-and stay there till the market is 'rigged" again.

ArizOna-Cananea to Take up all of its Op.
 tiOns.

A Cananea dispatch says: This week word was received from the New York offices of the Arizona Cananea company that they have decided to take up all the options which they hold on the various properties in this district. This means that the corpora tion will begin operations on a large scale as soon as possible. David Miller of San Francisco, who has been here on business connected with the con- pany, stated that the company would undoU btedly begin operations by the first of the coming month, or at least by January l.
 The amount of property involved is considerable and includes the Huer- fana, Corrigidor, Morita, Creston, Native, Blight, Elena, Martini, Esco- ces, Pelon and Residual denounce- ments. All these properties lie to the Southeast of Cananea and were owned by separate companies, including the Miller company Southwestern Mining Company, Cananea Mining & Develop ment company, Consolidated Gold & Copper company, Red Cloud Copper company, and most of the holdings of the Ortega company
 Although the figures have not yet been made public, the October output of the Greene-Cananea company will be about the same as the preceding month, 3,5OO,OOO pounds. Six furnaces are now in use at the shelter and it is believed that this number will remain in use until the first of the year, when the plant will probably run with seven, on account of handling the Miami concentrates, preparations for the handling of which are now under way.
 The steel for the six new McDougal furnaces has begun to arrive and work on the steel building has been begun.
 A new property has recently been opened up in the Altar district in which Cananea parties are interested. Jack Kelly is in charge of the proper ty and this week he brought 1O5 sam pies winch averaged 31.SOS (U. S. Cyl per ton. The property is known as

Silver Prices Due to ManipuIation.

Two weeks ago, when silver quota tions were lowering near the 5Ecent mark, the Mining Review expressed the belief that the advance was ic- titious, being unwarranted by any improvement in the general tone of the market. Since then what we consider the inevitable decline has occurred, and it now begins to look as if the quotations would gradually drop back to the level from which it rose month or so ago.
 A close study of the situation seems

horrible death. As it was all escaped through the underground workings which connect the third level with the Aztec mine. The loss is estimated at fully 5OOOs. The shaft caved in and will take considerable work to place it in condition.
 James Corrigan, of Corrigan, Me- Kinney and company, who have the Pinos Altos mines under bond and op- tion, was on the ground at the time, having arrived that day in company with Capt. Murray, manager, of the Rio Tinto Copper company, of Mexico, and R. B. Hutchinson superintendent of the Corrigan, Mckinney and con- pany's operation at Terrazas, Mexico.
 The fire was started from a lighted candle carelessly left fastened in one of the mining timbers of the shaft at the tunnel Q3O) by the bucket-dumper. When he saw the timbers blazing up the shaft, he ran out and informed the shift boss, William Fletcher. Knowing that the o'clock shift had just gone on, and were down in the fourth and fifth levels, he ran back in the tunnel and piled timbers over the mouth of the shaft, thus checking the fires pro- gress until the men could climb by ladder to the third level, where they escaped through the Aztec workings.
 The second and third levels were bulkheaded to check the fire and to prevent the burning timbers, melted rails and the loose rock from falling on the men as they ascended the shaft to the third level. All escaped in safety, although many had hair breadth escapes.
 The fire shot up through the air shaft with amazing rapidity, the draft from the tunnel level flaming it into fierce cauldron of heat. The rails in the shaft were melted like wax, so fierce was the heat. The shaft from the tunnel level up, distance of l30 feet, was burned out and caved in. How far the fire extended below the tunnel level has not been ascertained as the bulkheads have not been re- moved and will not be until it is pretty sure the ire has been smothered. The Hearst is one of the main working shafts of the Pintos Altos mines and is 500 feet deep.- Bisbee Review.

Interest Taken in Pioehe.

Widespread Interest Taken in Pioche.
 The transfer of controlling inter- est in the Nevada Utah Mines & Smell ters corporation to Ernest R. Woolley and associates has created widespread interest and one can scarcely pick up Salt Lake or eastern financial papers without noticing some mention therein of Pioche or its mines.
 On this end, signs of revival are ap- parent on every hand. The Nevada Utah company is shaping things for operation upon large scale and this has encouraged others to take steps in the direction of a resumption of &C., tivities. The Nevada Utah plant at the Day mine has been undergoing an overhauling and by the time Sup't Parker returns from Salt Lake, which will be within a few days, it will be ready to be placed under a head of steam. The same condition exists at Raymond & Ely No. shaft, where S. F. Whitney and a corps of skilled me- chanics have been engaged for the past two weeks in putting the equipment in order. It is a matter of only few days until the plant will be in shape for business.
 The Pioche King company under the direction of Superintendent T. w. Bowen, is pushing development east and west from the shaft on the 8OO- foot level and the management has ex- pressed the utmost confidence that it is matter of only brief time until the objective ore reserves will have been reached. The Centennial Pioche company is pushing its shaft on to the deep. The Mendha company IS daily adding more tonnage to its already ex- tensive exhibit of available ore: while shipments are going forward at the usual rate. The Mendha company is now marketing some of the richest ore ever shipped from this property.
 The Consolidated Pioche company is pushing No. shaft to the deep as rapidly as men and machinery can do it. The management is working three shifts of men and last night the tim bermen were busy at the 125O-foot point below the surface. About forty feet additional will land the shaft to place where cross-cutting to the fa- nous Black Ledge will begin and on which level connections will be made with the old workings of the Raymond & Ely mine, where remains a wealth of low grade silver-lead-zinc ore, to say nothing of the high grade material awaiting the miner.
 News from the east affecting the fu- ture of the Pioche Consolidated is mo- mentarily expected for it is believed that the deal looking toward consoli- dation with the Nevada Utah has about reached the stage of consumma- tion. With the Prince in the new and powerful combination, there will be such an awakening on the other side of the Ely range that the average citi- zen at the present time cannot begin to realize.
 The Low properties, so-called, have been merged and advices from Salt Lake are to the effect that plans are well matured looking toward resum- tion of work at the Golden Prince and the Gold & Silver Prince, both of which are in the -Pioche Record.

The Copper Queen company has stopped work at the Maverick group and abandoned their camp there. The cause of the shutdown is not known here. It probably means the abandon ment of the option and bond under which the Copper Queen people were prospecting the group. It is said that other parties, sometime since, an- nounced that they would apply for a similar bond and option on the prop erty Tn case the Queen company should conclude to give up their bond and option.

 Fl Triunfo Consolidated company is busily engaged in installing it's 50 ton shelter. Arrangements are now be- ing made to make all their red brick on the ground on account of the great expense in freighting the material to the mine. A kiln of 100000 brick will be begun at once.
 w. Spencer Hutchinson, a promin- ent mining expert, is at present mak- ing an examination of the properties of the Mexican Metals company, To- cated in the vicinity of Magdalena.
 Reports from the San Geronimo mine, east of PoZa station on the Southern Pacific of Mexico, state that the new 100 ton mill has been com- pleted and that shipments of high grade concentrates will soon be made.
 Operations will soon be resumed by the Industrial Mining company, which owns property west of Carbo, in the Carnero mountains. A tunnel has al- ready been drifted in distance of 300 feet in solid limestone.
 A 75 ton smelter is being constructed at the Nina Mexico, in the Sahauripa district, which will be ready for oper- ation at the first of the new year.
 The Santa Eduviges mine, in the Sahuaripa district, has resumed oper- ations.
 Work is being rushed on the new 100 ton shelter ot the Sonora Copper con- pany at Cobre Grande, near Noria. An aerial tramway $500 feet in length will be installed which will convey the ore from the mines to the shelter. The tramway will have capacity of 500 tons daily.
 The Tharsis York company, oper- ating in the Nacoz>s-: district, near the Pilares mine, has this week awarded a contract for the sinking of a shaft to depth of 300 feet. Some work was done on this shaft previously and is now down about 80 feet.
 Work at the Tomlinson and Miles Announcements, which has been car ried on by Bendelari & Cook of Joplin, Mo-, has ceased for the time being. Assays recently taken from the veir, which is eight inches in the ledge, assayed 59.74 per cent copper, .0S ounce gold and 5O.4 ounces silver.
 A tunnel is being driven on the Taft Announcement in the Baragon district, between here and Nacozari, which is showing up well. It is in 90 feet and assays have been taken which run 125 ounces in silver and one ounce in gold. The Announcement contains six per- tinencias. The property is owned by Cananea men.
 Last week the board of directors of the Industrial Mining company held a meeting at Nogales at which they de- cided to resume work at their proper ty, the Mixed Metals mine, located 35 miles west of Carbo. Sufficient money has been raised to pay all outstanding indebtedness and to permit the devel- opment of the property.
 The Cadena de Cobra company, which owns POS acres in the Sahuaripa district, is making arrangements to re- sume operations. The property was recently examined by an expert and the company is now devising a way of raising the necessary money. The property is three miles from the Yaqui river, where a power plant can be in stalled at small cost.

Wheat is now locally quoted at
rs cents or a little better, insur-
ing a good profit to the grower.
1t remains to be seen says the
Weston Leader. whether or not
the grower will be contented
with a good profit. The lure of
dollar wheat is strong, but one
dollar is so much above a normal
price-a price alike just to the
producer and consumer-that last
seasons skyrocket record may
not be repeated by the market.
If the growers decide to specu-
late, and the market should fall,
catching them with much wheat
but no money, then we are apt
to see tight times" in Eastern
Oregon. The resources of the
local banks have been strained
in financing the harvest, and
they have had less assistance
than usual from the central
banks. If the growers "jar
loose" at the present good prices
then they are sure to make mon
ey, while at the same time cas-
ing the finantial strain in
their respective communities.
Guessing at the wheat market is
a fascinating yet dangerous d.
version. 1t has made fortunes,
and it has also made bankrupts.
If too many farmers hold their
wheat and guess wrong, it may
make a few bankrupts in East
ern Oregon this year, so closely
are commercial interests allied
with the farmer. The financial
chain has been weakened this
year through supporting the
carry over" from last year,
when some of the farmers were
not satisfied with big prices. but
wanted an exorbitant price.
Another strong tug this year
may break the chain.

WHY DO MEN ADVERTISE?

The man who conducts his
business on the theory that it
doesn't pay and he can't afford
to advertise, sets up his judge
ment in opposition to that of all
the best business men in the
world. Says an experienced ad-
vertising authority: with few
years experience in conducting
a small business on a few thous-
ands of capitals, he assumes to
know more than thousands whose
hourly transactions Aggregate
more than his do in a year, and
who have made their millions by
pursuing a course that he says
doesn't pay"
If advertising doesn't pay,
why is it that the most success
full merchants of every town,
large or small, are the heaviest
advertisers? If advertising
doesn't pay, who does the most
business? If it does not pay,
business firms in the world spend
millions in that way. Is it be-
cause they wish to denote those
millions to the newspaper and
magazine publishers, or because
they don't know as much about
business as the six-for-a-dollar
merchant who says money spent
in advertising is thrown away
or denoted to the man to whom
it is paid? Such talk is simply
ridiculous, and it requires more
than the average patience to dis
cuss the proposition of whether
advertising pays or not with that
kind of a man. His complacent
selfconceit is assuming that he
knows more than the whole
world, is slaughable, and reminds
US of the man who proved that
the world doesn't revolve by
placing a pumpkin on a stump
and watching it by night.
