LITTLE DAISY IS
 GROWING RICHER
(Jerome Copper Belt.)

1Hc OullCu AN4hNho-OH1 celebrated St. Patrick's Day by breaking into body of ore on the evening of the 16th of March, has continued in the development, and has, since that memorable day, made wonderful discoveries of ore and to- day she has passed beyond the pros pect and is a mine, ready to deliver the goods. The ledge opened up that day was on a crOsscut for a distance of over fifty feet without reaching the hanging wall. The man agement is now drifting on this ledge both ways. In the west drift, where one machine is now working the ore body is a wonder and grows bet ter with each days development. There is much to be said in favor of this company and General Man ager Fisher, who has worked inces- sanity, under the most trying cireum- stances, to place this mine in the class where he felt confident she be longed. Superintendent Cain has also proven himself an excellent mining man, with an unusual "seent" for ore. The ore pile on the new dump is growing and looks very good.
 The Hull and Cleopatra properties were visited this week and the out look for a bright future for them is very flattering. While both are but prospects on which a large amount of money has been expend- ed and in which many thousands of feet of tunnel and drift work have opened up minerals, which will no doubt lead up to large bodies of ore. Especially is this so of the Cleopatra, which now has a large body of good ore at the 1900 foot drift from the Dillon tunnel This ore has been stopped for distance of over one hundred feet, and has proven to be one continuous body, with now and then a break, but run ming again into ore. Not more than forty feet from where this stOping is going on is the winze, which was started on an ore body and as depth has been reached the ore has grown better, and now the winze is down fifty feet, from which they are drift ing north and south. Going north they have attained forty feet, going south forty-fve feet, and everything is in ore. The manner of working is very crude, all ore and water be- ing raised with windlass and buck ct. It is the intention to install a hoist if the work continues at this point
 The Cleopatra Copper company was organized in 1902, under the laws of Arizona, with a capitalization of $4,000,000, shares $l par, and plan ned, September, 1907, increasing the capitalization to $1O,OOO,O0O. There are thirteen claims, eleven patented, area eirea 200 acres, showing Assure and gash veins carrying ores asay- ing l to 65 per cent copper and to 800 ounces silver per ton, with fair gold values. The property is entered through the Dillon tunnel, which has reached a distance of 3,945 feet, and is making straight for a ledge which was encountered about 150 feet from the 1888 shaft. When this point is reached then connection will be made with the shaft seventy feet above and giving direct com munieation through the tunnel to the 1888. It will then be an easy mat ter to haul the ore through the tunnel, thence hoisting through the shaft and loading on cars for smell ter.

Will Close Alabama Bayou

From the newspapers We take
the following written from Baton
Rouge
"Victor nj. Lefebvre, president
OF the Atchafalaya Levee Board,
was in the city to-day, and left
here with State Engineers Kerr
and Smith to make an inspection
of the levees Of that district. Mr..
Lefebvre displayed the official
communication received by him
from the War Department rela-
tive to the matter of the closing
the upper aud lower mouths of
Alabama Bapou. The department
states in this communication that
all authorities agree that the Le-
wee Board has tho right TO close
the mouths of this stream, proyi-
ded the east fork is left open to
navigation. This matter decides
question which has given the
Levee Board some concern. Act
ing on its Interpretation of the
conditions, the board some time
ago let the contract for levee at
the point above referred to, and,
later some of the persons residing
in the parish of st. Martin, objec-
ting to the construction Of the le-
wee, raised the point that the
stream to be closed by the levos
was a navigable watercourse, and
hence the War Department was
appealed to prevent further action
OH the part of the Levee Board. "
This means that unless some le-
gal action or the Governor inter-
feres in our favor, the Alabama
Bayou will he closed and the re-
suit will he more water on our low
lands.

There was quaint old man In Man.
chester. England. who for many years
went by the unique name OF Gagadig
Gigadab. His original name was John
Smith. and for many years he brooded
over the possibilities OF mistaken iden.
tity involved In 1t. The name figured
frequently In criminal records. and he
became abnormally apprehcnsive lest
he might be confused with some of
the bad John Smiths. At last what he
feared so much actually happened
One morning the papers reported the
arrest of an accountant In a bank for
embeZzlement. and through some blum
der OF the reporter the identity OF the
embezzler was confused with the sub
Ject OF this article. who was also n
bank accountant. Then and there ne
determined TO assume n name like
unto no other ever borne by mortal
man. And in Gagadig GiGadab most
people will agree that he succeeded in
so doing. New York Tribune.

LEGALLY Better Of.

The creditors of the ancient king
had become so unpleaSantly insistent
that he resolved to put them where
they could trouble him no more. So
he invited them 10 great banquet.
and when they had Toasted and drunk
OF his prepared wine he instructed his
servants To convey them to his deepest
dungeons. And the next morning
when he went down to learn whether
his servants had done his bidding his
creditors raised their voices and en-
treated to be set free. But he remon.
strated with them. saying:
MY friends. you have no just cause
for complaint. Are you not better Off
I'm the eye OF the law than ever be

THE CAMERA OBSCURA.
From IL Was Evolved Our Modern Pho.
toqraphic Apparatus


The camera was invented by an Ital-
ian named Baptista Porta. though Il
was not at first used for photograph
ing. IL was in reality merely a dark
room. into which the light was admit
ted through Il little round hole In one
side. The rays OF light coming from
objects outside OF this room entered it
through this aperture and made a pic
ture on the other side OF the room
glowing in all the beauty and color OF
nature itself, but rather indistinct and
upside down.
This dark room was contrived by
Porta about the middle OF the sixteenth
century. He improved II later by
placing glass lens I'm the aperture
and outside mirror which received
the rays of light and reflected them
through the lens SO that the image
upon the opposite wall within was
made much brighter, more distinct
and In n natural or erect position. This
was really the first camera obscura, an
invention which Is enjoyed TO the pres
ent day.
Now our modern Photographic cam
era is merely a small camera obscura
I'm It's simplest form. carrying n lens al
one end and n ground glass screen al
the other. 1t Is, however often much
more complicated In its construction.
