PARKER AND PARKER
MINING ENGINEERS.

The many new things which have
appeared and the many new conditions
which have arisen in the course OF in
dustrial development in the Southwest
while they have not drawn the civil
and mining engineer away from the
beaten path OF established customs in
applying scientific principles in mis-
work, have brought him face to face
with many new problems, and he Is
doing class OF work in the Southwest
that he has never done before. These
new problems are met with in mining,
agriculture, in the generation OF power
for many purposes, in building, and i'm
work OF many descriptions. The sci
entific principles remain the same and
they are ready within the grasp of
the man who Is truly educated in the
profession. Hence it is seen that the
most enlightened and skilful class OF
engineers who have been necessarily
restrictel to the process, which long
custom and the requirements Of the
times enforced have readily adapted
themselves to the new conditions, asslm-
Hated all new ideas and quickly brought
the trumphs of material izatlon, where
only ideas and theories have prevailed
until the present day Of marvels in me-
chanical construction
James II. Parker and Morris b. Park
er OF El Paso are worthy OF mention
as gentlemen Of the fraternity who oc-

A. w. HOUCK-ASsAYER.

ing, when and wherein the assayer is
the most important and necessary indi-
vdual in the camp or in his laboratory.
wherever that may be. The value OF
the ores can only be determined through
the process OF analysis by the assayer
This should be done invariably before
the beginning OF operations in the
mine and the work OF the assayer
should go before the purchase OF any
mine or new discovery Is made. 1t is
we'll known to all mining people THAI
these are the rules with few exceptions.
The first requisite, therefore. of the as
says is that he be n man OF learning
and eXactness In his profession and.
in the second place, that he be Of well
known accuracy and moral rectitude.
However, the days Of the dishonest and
incompetent assayer are well nigh
passed and none of these is known In
this locality One OF the most rella-
bic 0ssaycrs In El Paso is A. w.
Houck, who has a laboratory OF eX-
cellent modern equipment at 403 North
Oregon street. He Is an accomplished
assayer and chemist, with extensive
experience In the practical work, hav-
ing the best reputation for the reliable
ity of his determinations. Mr.. Houck liz

MINING COMPANY.
PEACOCK COPPER

MINING COMPANY.
An investment in an Arizona copper
mine or prospect is almost certain OF
profitable returns and there Is less haz-
ard In such investments than in any
other kind of mining, while the profits
when they are realized arc larger. 1t
was with this understanding OF the
situation and with an excellent prop
erty in hand with plentiful ore in sight,
that the Peacock Copper Mining COM
pany was organized in this city about
one year ago. It's officers and di-
rectors are among well known and
highly responsible business men OF lei
Paso and Arizona, and the capital Of
the company is stated at $1,000, 900.
The company is incorporated under tho
laws OF the territory of Arizona, and
the mines are situated in Johnson, Co
chise county, Arizona. The organiza-
ton OF the Peacock Copper mining COM
pany comprises the following: j. A.
Bennett, president: w. S. McMath, vice
president and A. *. Henderson, secre-
tary and treasurer. Directors. A..
Bennett, f. NJ. Filler, A. II. Anderson,
G. T.. Holmboe, r. L. Nichols, w. S.
McMath and Ben X. Williams. The lei
Paso office is located at rooms 2 and
%, Bassett and Edwards building. Thus
far there has only been sufficient time
for prospect work, but the progress
and the discoveries made are Of a pos
tive and most encouraging character,
the results being already sufficient to
assure enhanced value to the compa-
nys stocks, which are now selling on
the market and are in favor with all
who know OF the rich prospects of
this location.

smelter was started UP in October and
continues to run smoothly, and pro

The Warrior properties were actively

The Miami mine is employing about
400 men, blocking out ore into SO foot

known that the Cole-Ryan interests
sought to obtain large holdings in this
property in order to control the treat
ment OF it's ores.
Clifton District.
The Clifton district was active dur
ing the entire year, with both mining
and railroad building going on every

general development of the district, and
made record year, working more mel

pump in December which assures plen
ty of good water for all purposes
Paradise District.
This is one OF the coming districts
of southern Arizona, and the year 1870!
brought in many new men and strong
companies. Like many other good dis
tricts in the southwest the slump OF
1907 caused the following year to be {
very quiet one in mining way, but tn,
year just closed witnessed a very strong
revival Of interest.
Much of the new money put into this
district during the year 1909 was from
Douglas, Bisbee and other Arizona min
ing centers, close enough to the dlstric
to afford opportunities for closely fol
lowing the development done and TN
fact that several strong companie
have taken over properties and will
work them during the year Is thu

SUPERIOR 6 BOSTON.

The product Of ore extracted from
the superior & Boston mine during
April was 35S.OO7 pounds Of copper
and 6.725 ounces of silver. The com
pany is continuing TO make shipments
of ore averaging nine per cent or be-
ter in copper at the rate Of so tons
daily. Nearly all this ore is stopped
from the Great Eastern vein on the
6OO-foot level. but some Of f. is OBJ
tanned from the Back oxide tunnel
near the Gardner SHAFT, where leas-
ers are extracting material averaging
seven per cent copper AMI having a
high iron content. As the Arizona
Eastern railroad is now building a
spur to the McGaw shaft, the Superior
and Boston should be equipped with
excellent shipping facilities within
two months. As there is a great
deal Of tres-le work to be done it is
not likely that the spur viii be COM
pleted until July. At present the
Superior * Boston is shipping ore to
the Old Dominion smelter By che way
OF the Arizona Commercial railway.

the main working shaft Of the Super
Tor * Boston mine. from which the
various levels win be established. will
be suns $50 feet below the sixth level.
AT poin- 112 feet below the sixth
station sets were put in preparatory
TO establishing the seventh level at
that depth Il is expected that the

eighth level by July /. and by that
time the ore body will have been
opened 10 tina. depth.
