the case at the symphony concerts.
As one member OF the fraternity says,
the better support the concerts are
given, the lower the prices OF the
tickets for the next series will be.
Those who have heard much classical
music should attend, for apart from
the other features OF the concerts,
there is an educational value at

 So far Inspiration has fully develop ed about 10,000. 900 tons of ore, which is understood to average ? per cent copper and over, and the possible ore indicated by scattered drill holes over wide area is estimated all the way from 3e,00O,00 to 40,000,oo0 tons.

 i Miami is understood to have iL- lcreased it's developed ore to about tf6 900 .V00 tons which will average ap proximately 25 per cent copper. The management satisfied as a result l of it's experimental concentrating

 The outstanding 6Ss.000 shares of Miami stock is selling in the market lfor 3l3,760. 900. equivalent to 80 cents Iper ton for it's developed ore.

this property and much more will have to be invested before a pound of ore will be marketed.
 This body of ore that the Cleveland Cliffs company is to mine lies under a large tamarack swamp To make its shaft safe it was made of concrete, a great circular opening put down to the rock ledge. Then shere is the rock to cut through, drifts to run and much to be done underground to properly prepare for mining the ore deposit, Heavy pumps are needed, heavy machinery to cope with anl the elements that here will be met.
 In the modern methods of equip ping and operating copper mines vast amount of capital is necessary. The dats of the rich mass mines that had great showing near grass roots have gone by. None of this class are now beig found. Copper mines need deep shafts and very expensive ma chinery. They also demand mills and smelters. The price of the metal is
 very low and we have been insisting that 1t would be a wonderfully fine
 thing for the copper industry if an important percentage of it's mineral could be handled by concern whiea
 would be to it as Steel has proved to iron If enough of the metal could be used so it would steady the market | it would be much better than the suicidal policy that has been in vogue for several years. Such an opinion may be in opposition to the laws which have for their intent the regu. lating cf money. but there is no doubt about the wisdom of the plan.
 Combined capital is even more Lee essary 10 the opening and operating of copper mines than in those Of iron ore, because there is rarely an in stance in which the sum needed tc get a copper mine ready for business
 does not reach several millions. Il ! also needs several years time. Imag i inc a lot of poor men trying, to gel

 Ray Consolidated will probably is- sue s3,000.o00 Of convertible bonds to raise money for the complet:or of it's S,O00-ton concentrator and it's smel ter, and to supply it with sufficiesi working capital so it will not find it necessary to ask for advances on its copper from the selling agency. There is now every prospect that this com pay will be able to produce between 75, ,o000, 900 and 100,o00,000 pounds of copper annully, at a cost Of less than nine cents.
 Tae 100000 shares of Ray Consol- dated now outstanding at s2O a share has market value of $24, 4,0o0,000 This will be increased to $27, ,000,00 by the proposed bond issue, equiva- lent to about 3S cents ton for the 70, ,0Oo, 900 tons of ore already develop ed in the property. Its proved ore will probably be increased to 100000, 900 tons by the exploratory work now under way. Its ore averages 217 per cent copper, and forty pounds should be recovered from each ton of ore, yielding profit of $l-2o a ton, or more than three times what the developed ore is now selling for in the market. There should be a profit of Approximately $75i0o0. 900 on the extraction and treatment of the ore now developed in the Ray property, provided that the copper is sold at an average of oily 13 cents pound.

The Copper Queen is getting ready for a vast amount of construction work during the next year, incident to the installation of two reyerber- atory furnaces and a number Of McDougal roasters. A large amount Of structural steel is now on the ground for the required buildings and the site for this addition to the plant is now being cleared and lev eIed and necessary tracks put in place. This addition to the Copper Queen plant will cover site ooo feet long and 100 feet wide. No def mite estimate could yet be made as to the time it will require to com plete this work but it will require many months prehaps one and a half years. In connection with the reyerberatory furnaces and roasters a new stack will be required oi about the same capacity as the one which now accommodates the fur
 naces and converters. More thai five thousand square feet is oeint

WALKER SEES BOOM FOR THE
 INSPIRATION
(By Geo. L. Walker)

Copper is stronger. Lake is now Is cents and electrolytic is 12 3-4 pound. Domestic consumers are showing an increased disposition to buy, and foreign consumers are pur- chasing heavily. Although great many rumors are in circulation to the effect that the brass business is get ting slack there is absolutely reli- able information which goes 10 prove that the consumption of copper is still steadily increasing both in this coun- try and in Europe.
 The figures presented by the Cop per Producers association, covering the month of September, were even more favorable than expected. The American surplus decreased 2e,0s'S 531 pounds, ana the worlds visible surplus showed a shrinkage during the month of about 2S0, ,00o, 900 pounds There was a heavy increase in ex ports. and only a slight decrease in domestic deliveries. Reduction and 
 imports were much smaller. The gen eral turn for the better. indicated by this report was brought about wira- out the aid Of the production cur- tailmenx which began about two months ago and which could not have been effected in September refinery output. The Producers reports or the coming several months. therefore should show much larger decreases .n the worlds surplus and before next year is far advanced the statistical position of the metal should again be very strong.
 Consumption will go on increasing as long as the metal remains at it's present low price level: and this. of course will be necessary in order tc absorb the existing surplus of copper tAe. accumulated old metal in the
 hands of dealers and the current
 heavy production. It is now very plain

Under it's provisions we have seen this iron ore business developed in a practical manner at great volume. We have witnessed a transformation in our former methods of conducting this business that has brought great good to the communities in which these big mines are operated.
