The Good Luck is running its
usual amount of high grade ore.
The sales from this mine demand
the highest prices and show so
good a grade of ore as to escape
any penalty for iron or moisture
grading 80 per cent or over.
The parties who are promot-
ing the Joplin, Oklahoma and
Western steam Railroad from
Joplin to Bartlesville, Oklahoma,
informed us that active work
will be started on this road with
in the near future. The princi-
pals interested expect to be in
this vicinity during the first halt
of this month.
The Mason mine is under OPP
ton, and as soon as an inspec'
ton can be made, it is expected
that this property will be put In
to operation.
1t is rumored that the Lucille
has leased its mine and mill and
that this property will join the
producing list at once.
E. F. Sweeney & Sons are max
ing a good record at the McAll-
lister mill, where they are opera
ting at full capacity.
Actual mining began at the
Quincy Mining Cos property this
week.
The top bents were put into
position during the past week,
on the big Petersburg mill. The
two hoppers are ready for ore.
Machinery is arriving every day
and much of it is being set into
position. Everything is being
done to complete the mill during
the present month. This will be
a big help in increasing the
camps output.

$Io,455,734.oo

Prices of zinc ore varied from
S4l.00 for the low grade ores to
S44.5O for high grade ores. Top
price was $47.00.
Lead was strong at $4,000.
The zinc ore surplus has been
reduced until now the shelters
must depend on the actual pro-
duction each week for their sup
ply. This would lead to the be-
lief that much higher ore price
must be maintained in order to
encourage the opening up of the
idle mines. While the iron trade
and also the steel trade is run
ming only to about 60 per cent OF
their capacities at the present,
the orders that are now being re-
ceived is only a hand to mouth
system of purchasing, simply
showing that the trade is not
satisfied with present conditions
and will not go into the market
to any extent until this uncer-
tainty has been removed, even
though their goods may cost
them more at that time.
This lack of confidence perme-
ates all lines of business, and We
feel it most keenly in the lead
and zinc business.
AS soon as the cause OF this
hesitancy is removed the prices
for ores will have to advance to
Get the operators to push their
present production and to encour-
age others who are now idle to
start producing again.
Several cars of fine ore are now
ready for loading at the Eastman
mill. The underground develop
meut at this property is showing
an immense body of ore to the
west. The tread of this big ore
body is to the west, underneath
what is known as the Abrams
Hill.
Since the raise in ore prices,
much activity is being shown IN
he camp. Several active deals
are now under way, With good
indications Of an early closing.

AFTER A FORTUNE
 HID IN HIS CELLAR
Waterford Man Brought to State Hos
 pital.

Quaker Hill and the northern part of Waterford lost picturesque char acter Wednesday night when Henry Smith, known throughout that section as the oil man, was taken to the Nor wfch State hospital at instance of the Waterford authorities. Smith has lived recently in the small house near the trolley turnout just south of Richards grove, keeping house by himself and making living selling oil.
 Little is known of his family or antecedents, though it is said he had a wife, from whom he separated years ago. He was a pensioner hay ing served in the civil war and been wounded in the head. This wound in his head left effects from which he never fully recovered and he was long known as an eccentric, but lately his eccentricities had taken a dangerous turn and after his last escapade the town authorities thought 1t was no longer safe to leave him at large.
 He got the idea. in his brain that a boulder in the cellar of the house where he lived concealed a vast treasure and if he could get at it his remaining years might be spent in ease and plenty. The boulder was of such size as to baffle any attempts at removal, except with dynamite or some such explosive, and when work was begun near his home he got an idea some of the dynamite used by the construction workers would help win his fortune. He tried to buy some of the explosive. but was unable to do so and was finally caught making an attempt to appropriate it and this decided his neighbors that he was not of his acts to the selectrnen brought action on their part

Hoicomb Ie- ported that he and Lewis Sperry, who represented the attorneys for the va rious interests on the other side could not agree on a committee. The attor- ney general wanted all lawyers and the other side wished a lawyer for chairman and business men for the other n1embe $ ef the committee.
 The atforI.ey general said that he feared that if business men were se- lected there would be a danger of aT- pointing persons interested in some prefer to have the judge appoint these at large and without regard to the lists submitted by the representatives of the bridge.
 The following tentative list was sub mitted by the attorney general: nim A. filling, Leonard M Daggett, James H. Webb and George D. Watrous, of New Haven; Donald T. Warner of Salisbury.
