In his seventy-ninth year DR.. Kemp
p. Battle keeps the same fatherly
watch over Battles Park that he
kept twenty-five years ago as Presl'
dent of the University. In his shirt
sleeves and with his own hands he
helped last week to lay off additional
walks in the Park. These walks
which are laid off back OF the athletic
field will be q source Of increasing
pleasure to students who take their
walks in the refreshing shades OF
Battles Park. One can now follow
continuous paths from the Meeting
OF the Waters by DrOmgO0ie's Tomb
to Piney Prospects. Battles Park
with its extended paths and wooded
seats, with its picturesque scenery,
historic associations and romantic
legends, is dearer still for the presi-
ding spirit OF "Old Pres"

essarily the advance in the smaller
ones will be the largest.
That there is something big brew
ing among the big copper interests
of not only this country but Europe
as well is unquestionable but as to
the exact status of the affair at pres
ent no ones outside of those direct
" involved in IL can tell. Eastern
financial papers and market letters
are bullying with reports of a curtail-
ment agreement having already been
formulated or going TO be and some
have wen given figures as 10 b
amount of the production of the red
metal TO be done away with. This
agreement is alluded to as a gentle
mans agreement and il is given as
an explanation of this that the agree
ment has been made between the big
copper lights personally in order that
they may not come in conflict with
antitrust laws. etc. The different re-
ports are so much in variance with
each other that whether all that has
been written and said on the subject
is fact or merely fancy is difficult TO
say ar this time. While II is possible
that announcements were a little pre-
mature there is little doubt that
there IS something doing and that
when the facts do leak out il will be
for the betterment of the prices of
all copper securities. With all this
taken into consideration We believe
that now is as good time as any TO
buy and have so advised our custo-
mers for some time. II is not neees-
sary TO look further than this dis
trict for what may be classed as ex-
cellent buys for there is nothing bet
ter in the entire list than Nevada
Con. and Giroux. We cannot too
recommend the purchase of
these two stocks and there are 9TH
among the Elys which bought
now and held will give forth even
greater profits on the amount in
yolyed.

COPPER STOCKS MAKE STRONG.
UPWARD MOVEMENT DURING WEEK

With astonishing rapidly another
turn has taken place in the market
and the reaction of the preceding
week and early part of that just pass
ed became an advance of goodly pro-
portions during the closing hours on
Saturday. As we predicted, the &C
ton of the market has not been a
continual upward grind. There have
been numerous small reactions but
all told prices have been consistent
y seeking higher levels. During
yesterdays short market. perhaps
the most noticeable gains of the week
were made all down the list and clos
ing quotations on a majority OF the
stocks we're the high points of the
week Weak spots we're TO be found
among the big stocks, the leaders
heretofore, and it is possible that a
reaction of ONE magnitude is due to
take place during the coming week.
: may be. however. that the general
list Is breaking away from the lead
erShips Of these few stocks 10 a large
degree and that the more serious ef-
fects Of these reactions will be felt
- them alone. These stocks which
have been the leaders are nearly all
highf-cost producers and il is a fact
that more OF the general list have fol-
love- n the wake Of Utah Copper.
Miami. Nevada Con. and others of
the more important low cost produc-
ing stocks IN the present upward
movement. II such be the case. the
nnal readjustment will find such
stocks as Amalgamated Copper
quoted al lower figures than before
the break began and the stock OF low
cost producing companies will have
appreciated in value to greater fig
ures than ever before. At any rate,
with all the watering that has been
in evidence taken out. the difference
