SUPERIOR G. GLOBE.

The station which is being made on
the 65O-f foot level of the vertical SMART
on the Superior g. Globe property OF
the Copper Hill district is nearly COM
pIeted. A force of men is now at work
putting in the timbers and as soon as
this work is done the sinking of a
SUNNI will be commenced. This stump
will be 25 feet deep. thus making the
bottom of the shaft 675 feet from the
surface,
Although it is difficult to foresee the
exact time at which the station and
stump work will be finished, it is es-
timated that in about two weeks 1t VIII
be possible to begin work on the cross
cuts to be driven northwest and south
east from the shaft to cut the lodges
very clearly defined by surface out
groupings. The northwest crosscut has
already been driven for about ten feet.
The nearest ledge shown by outcrop-
pings north of the shaft Is 400 rect
away while the Yuma ledge which dips
toward the shaft should be reached III
about 200 feet by prosecuting. AFTER
the driving of the crosscuts has been
initiated this work will be advanced

New York, Jan. 5.-Gossip last night
centered almost entirely on the result
of the presidents message. The story
received from Washington yesterday
that the president would recommend a
federal Incorporation act was received
very favorably. as 1t was felt that
such an act was being proposed In
lieu of proposing charges i'm the Sher-
man antitrust law. The concensus OF
opinion seems TO he that the admin
istration would do nothing that would
really injure business interests. As a
whole, the gossip regarding stocks was
bullish. II was said that there are
two factions i'm South Pacific board,
one OF which wants per cent divi-
dend and the other of which wants
per cent dividend. This would seem
TO insure per cent rate at least and

This shaft has been idle for 3 years

great flow of water encountered.
Since that time drifts have been run
from the Junction and Hoatson mines.
IL is the intention of the company to
make the Briggs the main hosting

the 1900 foot level OF the Hoatson

encountered i'm the region of the

EXPLORING FOR COPPER.
Red Metal Found in Numerous Places
Near Duluth.

The Duluth Herald says:
The announcement in the Herald
Dec. 2s that explorations for copper
are being conducted at Lester river
has started the old timers to calling
up "reminiscences and scientific men
to specializing on the prospects OF the
red metal being found in paying guam
titles in this vicinity. Float copper
in small quantities has been found all
over Duluth. one chunk, picked up at
Lester river some years ago, weighed
100 pounds. The only well defined VEN
heretofore known to exist, however
runs from the old Masonic temple 10
the new Y. NJ. c. a. building and the
amygdalo!d formation contains copper
i'm considerable quantities.
The fact that copper has been found
i'm Duluth is taken by some TO indi-
cate that there is a large vein of the
red metal i'm this vicinity. No very
extensive explorations were ever made.
In 1869 and 1870, drill was operated
at French river, but very little money
was spent before operations were dis
continued. Some work was done years
ago back of Grand Marais, but copper
was not such a factor in the CONNER
cial world at that time as it is now
and people were not so willing "a
spend money to explore and develop

There has been things doing on the
south side. and over in Ontonagon
way. during 1909, with the Lake cop
ner property as the sensation ana
center of attraction. This company
has opened runs of ground of unpre-
cpdented richness. containing values

amvgdaloid formation, the only other
property approaching it being the
Superior which had mill runs giving
three per cent. yield of mineral or on
mounds TO the ton but the high per-
ceutage was not maintained when
misunderstanding was inaugurated, ana
tho same will he true of Lake rock,
but as at Superior, the average VIII
he high enough, making, perhaps, a
new high record for the amygdalold
formations. The shaft is down over
SOo feet. or to the sixth level, and in
going down passed through an epidote
lode. which is apparently large, ana
very rich. In the meantime, the cross
cut is being run to cut the Lake lode
at the sixth level, and it viii be IN
teresting to note the length of this
crosscut before reaching the lode. what
is most desired at the Lake, is to
ascertain the strike and angle of the
big lode. 1t would settle the location
of "A second shaft and at the same
time enable adjoining or adjacent pro-
perties to determine where the Lake
lode might possibly be located. 1t Is
said that 100 tons of rock per day
from the Lake will be sent to Franklin
mill shortly, and after two or three
months of stamping, even 100 tons pei
day, something will be known of about
the average yield of rock from the

DEATH OF MRS, S. B. STUBBLE-
FIELD.

Mrs. Henrietta Stubblefeld, wife of S.
B. Stubbleheld, died at her home near
Brandon, last Saturday afternoon at 2
o'clock, at the age of 60 years, after a
long and patient illness. The funeral
occurred at by Creek Sunday afternoon
at 2 O'Clock, conducted by Rev. Bryan
Simmons, her devoted pastor.
None but those who have sat in the
shadow of the great bereavement can justly
weigh such sorrow as this. Those who
have gone into the valley of suffering
and stood for months by the side of a
loved one, as hope after hope dropped
away as the petals fall from a fading
flower, know that such anguish cannot
find solace in the tenderest words. She
who has gone forth could not be supported
on her solitary path by any earthly friend.
The husband with a devotion few men
are capable of, whose strength was given
sweetly, tenderly to this precious Invalid,
whose heroic devotion never faltered,
could not detain her by the, clasp OF
earthly love; but after the last word had
been spoken, the last sign of recognition
was gone, look of peace settled on her
face which proclaimed victory, and he
knew she was resting on mighty arm.
