A. C. Werden, of Denver, who has
mining interests in the Gold Road
section, was in Kingman several days
this week. Mr.. Werden has been get

installation of machinery.
This week the big smelter at Hum
bolt shipped its first car of copper to
the refinery. The plant is said to be
working perfectly and ore. is coming
in in quantity to keep tine furnaces
constantly employed.
James F. Carter, president and gen.
eral manager of the Carter mines, is
in Kingman on business. This COM
pany has opened the vein to depth of
$50 feet, and have run crosscuts and
drifts $40 feet in length and have OPP
ened up large amount of ore. At
the so foot the drift shows a IL foot
vein that averages 12S gold per ton,
while the $50 level shows a vein of
from to feet wide that assays from
les TO 35S TO the ton. The vein at the
25Olevel is feet wide, but no drifting
has been done at that point. 1t is the
intention of the company to sink an
other lift and prove up the ground on
the 80 level. To do this the company
is putting $4,000 shares of stock on the
market at 10 cents, and the funds OBJ
tanned from the sale will go into the
new work and for betterments. It is
estimated that there is now in sight
in the mine many thousands of dollars
that could be readily recovered by
straight milling process, the gold in
the ores being very free and yielding
readily to amalgamation. Mr.. Carter
has been looking after the business of
the company at the mines the past six
or eight months and has been able to
accomplish a large amount of work
with the expenditure of small amount
of money.

Capital Mine is Soaking to Ship.

The camp at the Capitol Mines, Fl
Dorado district. presents a lively ap.
pearance these days, and development
work is being pushed as rapidly as pos
sible.
The company has recently completed
the construction of pipe line 1900
feet in length, and an abundance OF
water is now available at all the most
convenient points in camp.
The new building, which has been
erected to take the place of the one
destroyed by fire a few weeks ago, has
been completed. and is one of the best
arranged camp buildings in the dis
trict, and is supplied with all modern
conveniences.
Crosscutting for the vein has been
begun in the Iron shaft, at a depth of
200 feet, and the vein will doubtless be
encountered within u or 10 feet. The
vein changed its angle slightly at the
10O-foot level, while the shaft was con-
tinued on the same angle on which it
was started, which necessitates a short
crosscut into the foot wall for develop
ing the vein.
A shipment of two car loads of ore
will soon be made from the Sunny
., u,n claim, large portion of which
is already sacked and ready for haul
ing to Searchlight. and the necessaI y
amount to complete the shipment will
be ready by the time it can be ham

Strike at c. o. D. Mine.

This week the crosscut from the ITO
level of the c. o. D. mine struck the
main vein, having passed through a
number of stringers in driving across
from the shaft. Fourteen inches of
high grade shipping ore was cut, be-
sides two feet of milling ore. Drifting
was started on the vein each way and
this work will be pressed as fast as
men can do the work. The shaft is
500 feet west of the old shaft, which
leaves almost the entire distance be-
tween the old and new work virgin
ground. II is thought that the new
shaft is on what is known as the back
ledge, which if true, would give the
whole 500 feet of new ground. As
soon as slopes can be opened it is pro-
posed to begin the extraction of ore
but at the same time the shaft will he
continued to the 500 level. from which
point drifts will be run under the old
works and the mine thoroughly dra. u
ed and dried out so that the old slopes
can be pulled and the ores milled.
Next week the mill will be put in COM
mission and the ores in the dumps and
in the upper slopes dressed up for the
market. So far the mine promises to
be greater shipper of ore than in its
palmy days, when it. was one of the
big properties of the territory. The
new ore just opened up gives high
values in gold, besides the silver, lead
and zinc content. One of the streaks
in the crosscut is rich in lead. Mr..
Mclaughlin, general manager of the
property, believes he is opening up
one of the greatest mines in the ter
ritory and that it will be second to no
other shipping property in the county
within the next six months.

the Fullerton section of Orange county
will have a big sugar factory with
the coming year, judging by the me
ing of public-spirited citizens at
helm last week. at which a committee
of three was appointed to solicit funde
to raise $15O,OOO local capital needed to
secure the enterprise, which will cost
about $850000.
"The meeting was addressed by. Mr..
Hadsell, representing the Warner
Sugar Refining company of New York,
and a sugar refinery at Lyons, N. Y.
The latter factory will not be operated
in the future as a sufficient acreage
of beets could not be obtained, and it
is the purpose of the company. if it
can secure sufficient encouragement, to
move the best of the machinery from
the eastern plant to Anaheim.
"The cost of the proposed factory
will be $S5000O. 1t will have a capacity
of 600 tons a day, guaranteed to oper
ate about four months a year, COM
mencing the early part of July. To
keep the factory running the full ca
pacity during this time 5000 acres of
beets must be contracted for. The
management will have to look for at
least half this quantity to the beet

GOING EAST AFTER TIPS
FOR COLUMBIA HOSPITAL
New Institution to Be Finest in
Country-Work in
Progress

DR.. c. F. Drum, president or tne
General Osteopathic Hispital associa-
tion of Los Angeles, will leave for a
six weeks trip throughout the princi-
pal eastern cities for the purpose of
investigation the arrangement and
latest conveniences and methods of
operating followed in the leading hos
pitals of the east. While away he will
visit st. Luke's hospital in Chicago,
the German and University hospitals at
Philadelphia, and the Columbus and
Roosevelt hospitals in New York city,
acknowledged to be the most modernly
eouipped of any in the United States.
DR.. Drum expects to gather many
valuable ideas for incorporation in the
new columbia hospital which the Gen
era1 Osteopathic association is building
on the northeast corner of Orange and
Wilmer streets on one of the most
slightly locations in the southwest for
such an institution.
Work was begun last Monday on the
grading and terracing of the lot, and
men and teams will soon be engaged
in removing the earth for the basement
and foundation walls of massive con,
crete. These will be put in at once, and
will be ready for the superstructure
by the time DR.. Drum returns, about
the last of June.
Architect Norman F. Marsh has
practically completed the working
plans, and as soon as practicable work
will begin on the casting of the con-
crete structure. This will be strongly
reinforced with steel, and finished on
both the exterior and interior with a
