Life 10 Gain Riches.
As romantic and tragic a tale az

North was told recently when the par
ticulars of the death of Harry Curtis
Elliott president OF Hubbard Elliott
Copper Mines Developing company Of
Alaska, were learned from his broth
err. Albert j. Elliott of Chicago. The
latter's information comes in tele-

expert bent in the same race for

picked up in a mining land tangle.
Thomas T.. Cole mine owner. has an
option on a 2.700-acre copper field in
southeastern Alaska.
Harry Elliott was eating Thanks
giving dinner in New York when in
formation that the option would ex-
pire on Feb. came to him, and after
a hasty consultation with others )i
the company he left the comfort OF
his home To struggle with the hard
ships of the northland to investigate
the worth of the property with the
purchase in prospect. He wired "a
Seattle for guides and experts and
started. He had until Feb. / la return
with his reports TO Chicago.
From Tekil, Alaska. on Dec. "a he
sent a Christmas message to his wife
announcing the start of the expedition

At the Elizabeth shaft Elliott ana
Elizabeth swept the juggernaut of
snow. The rumble of the slide reach
ed the main camp and rescue party
set out at once. No trace Of the two
was found. A runner was dispatched

hundred miles away, and a dozen
woodsmen responded.
These men are securing the great
copper field in a last hope of finding
the two men, but. although the rela-
tives hope, the men of the north shake
their storm greyed heads and declare
that the life Of Elliott is lost in tho
race for riches.

CACTUS.

Globe, Jan. 12.-The Cactus Develop
ment company, 16 miles west OF
Globe. Ariz., has finished it's first
year of work and is to be succeeded
on January Is, 1910, by the Cactus
Copper company. Exploration began
November 80, 1908, with no CONNER
cial ore exposed. In the year that fol-
lowed commercial ore reserves were
created aggregating about 100000
tons which may be measured as ore
in sight, and is conservatively esti-
mated by the company's engineers that
upward of 100000 tons lie within
the squaredup openings which may
be called probable ore developed.
This has been accomplished by shaft
sinking and laterals. Two shafts have
been opened, the Pinto To depth of
Sal feet Con property in which Cactus
owns 81 per cent intcresD and the
Hamilton to n depth of 532 feet and
laterals have been extended at the 300,
400 and 500 foot levels of the Ham
ilton shaft sufficient to make the to-
tai underground openings approximate
~ 1000 feet The tonnage of ore re-
serves created within the first year of
work is signally successful and the
footage of openings is a worthy record
for q property connected with the rail-
road only by 16 miles of mountainous
wagon road.
Money is Ready.
Plans for financing the development
of the ore body have been completed,
and these will be carried into exc
cution when the transfer to the new
company is made. The Cactus Copper
company. organized under the laws
of Minnesota. has a capitalization of
