BUSY ON THE COPPER RIVER

The Great Northern Is doing wig orous and systematic work in the expectation of opening up immense bodies of low grade ore, says the Cordova Alaskan. Although this com pany has only been operated two sea sons, MT. Devenney, the manager. states that they have nearly 2,O0O the Porcupine, where they are work ing loo men. On the kotsina they employ 40 men.
 They have two large tunnels about 300 and 600 feet respectively, and have commenced to do considerable cross-cutting. In prosecuting their work MT Devenney states that six Adams electric drills are in use, with capacity of twenty feet of tunnel per day. He says that it is the in tention of the company to continue work throughout the winter. The ore that the Great Northern company is working in Is chalcopy- rite, that when pure contains 34 per cent copper. What Is consider ed low grade in this ore at the pres ent workings is below 10 per cent. 1 The president of the company, E. F. Gray, who is now at the mines, was formerly connected with the famous Nevada Consolidated, at Ely, Nev.
 He practically discovered that cele brated low grade property that ran from to 3 per cent. in copper, and yet made it's owners wealthy. And it is said that one-half of the copper properties around Butte contain less than } per cent. in copper. So it can readily be seen what a low grade property in the Copper river coun try means.
 When asked about the reported strike of a body of high grade ore MT. Devenney stated that it was not the policy of his company to give out any information as to values. He says the company is financed by wealthy New York capitalists, who have no stock for sale or any fav- ors to ask of the general public. AS a consequence they feel that they should be allowed to conduct their private business without taking the general public into their confidence. In order that no misstatementS shall get circulated they prefer to say nothing until they are in a position to mine and ship ore.
 MT. Devenney did not hesitate to express the opinion that the coming of the railroad would mean a won derful activity in the copper fields. He believes that it will result in the opening up and development of many new operations. One great drawback has been the cost and in convenience of getting supplies into the country. He says that his com DdlS lOOh III 1OU lOuS idSl SS@iSOll, starting in December from Valdez and working until May first before the last ton was landed on the Por Ui'ine.
 MT. Devenney states that consid erable work has been done in the neighborhood of his company's prop erty, notably the Mccarthy property between the Big Horn and Porcu pine. He states that George Davi- son has a good force of men at work on the Finch group at the head of the Kuskalina, and that he gives good reports of the seasons work. MT. Davison is looking after the de- velopment work of the Finch, West over, Golden Eagle, Snowbird, Dill man and Gilahina groups.

Swallowed q Squirrel.

Rattlesnakes seem to be more
numerous this year than for some
years past. At least we hear Of more
of'them. A ,shorts time ago Messrs-
". H. c. Thompson. and D S. Thomp-
son were out hunting not far from
Branchrille when they found big
rattlesnake coiled up in the bushes
ready for business. Before he had a
chance to do any harm he was kill
ed. 1t was found that the monster
had twelve rattles and a button,
which indicated that it was thirteen
years old. His snakeship had dined
quite heartily, as full grown cat
sgu!. sci was found in its stomach.

SPOT CASH FOR COTTON.
That Is the Way Our Buyers Buy
an Tho;r Cation

The Orangeburg correspondent OF
The News and Courier says the pub
lication daily Of so many of the cot
ton markets Of the State is appre-
;ciated here by cotton sellers and
buyers. The prices paid here have
not been complained of, and are said
to be the top Of the market.
There are a. humber of buyers
here, and competition is sharp. 1t
must not be overlooked that the
spot, cash is paid for every pound Of
the staple sold here. Therefore, it
is not always fair to this market to
compare its prices with some others.
But The News and Courier's daily
market reports will enable the far
mers to see what is going on in the
cotton trade and assist them in OBJ
tanning the best prices.
We. are glad that the correspond
ent called the attention of the pub
lie to this matter. Many Of the quo
tations given from the other towns
may be for cotton taken in for a
debt, in which cent OF more above
the price where, cash is paid for cot
ton, as is done on this market. Au-
gusta is one of the best cotton mar
kets in this section, and we notice
that the. prices paid by 0rangeburg
buyers are generally about the same
as paid by the Augusta buyers;
