Mr.. Givens is one of the old

years. Like theLouisville peo-

played wonderful patience and
nerve and held on to his proper

his reward is coming to him in a
substantial way. And after all
that is what counts in any bust

invest $40, 100000 in the dry
goods business and if he clears
twenty per cent per year he
thinks he has done well. Yet

or $1,000. 90 in the. mining bust
ness in Crittenden county and
to make SO, 10000 or
SIS, 600. 90 each and every year.
Such business cannot be done in
Crittenden county nor in any
other mining district. Of course
occasional strikes seem to prove
the contrary, but they are not
the rule. 1t takes as much
sound business judgment to run
a spar mine as it does to run a
dry goods store, and it might
pertinently be added that it
takes as much money for one as
the other.

The Commodore Mining Com
pany is now operating one of the
greatest spar mines in this dis
trict- II is claimed by good
judges that they have more ore
in sight, that is blocked out I'M
derground. than any other mine
in the district. A strong Opt
mism coupled with push, energy
and money has carried this mine
on until the cash money returns
are now coming back into the
pockets Of the owners. They
certainly deserve commentator.
The Commodore Mining Com
pany have 400 tons number one
gravel spar in Marion on tha
railroad yard ready for ship
ment. This Company is now
mining from 20 to 80 tons of
spar daily. Their mine is equip
ped with the very latest ma
chinery some of which is an in
novation TO the district Their
washing apparatus is different
from any other. They use shak-
er screens and from the spar is
fed onto a hand picking belt
three feet wide which is the
only enc we know of anywhere.
They have sunk to a depth of
100 feet and are still going
down. The spar at the bottom
is better than any bove and the
vein is 8 to % feet in width.
From three to seven wagons are
in daily use hauling the ore to
the railroad. The Company is
owned by Louisville Capitalists.
They first started on the j. c.
b. MEXICAN land. This prop
erty is not operated now. Those
in the Company at this time are
Mr.. Edward F. w. Keiser, Theo.
Keiser, Leo. Klerer. Fred Len
hardt, and Henry A. J. Pulus.
The mine is under the direct
management of Mr.. J. B. White

Rumor. 1t is rumored, mind
you merely rumored, that the
old Lucille property located on
the railroad here in Marion,
which produces good grade of
spar, is be opened up right
away and put On a working
basis. The Harth Bros, of
Caseyville and Paducah are the
main owners and hackers of this
enterprise. We have not been
in communication with them nor
do we have any knowing, there

Interest IN MINIMIZING CIRCLES BECOM-

Everything Now Indicates the Recognition Of Old Ctenden thu
Richest Fuor Spar Lead and Zinc District in the World and
to More than Double All former Outputs

The Editor of this paper has
been taken to task quite frequent
" of late, because of a lack of
mining news in these columns.
Now Mr.. Editor has said nothing
to the writer of these notes about
il, nor made any complaint: but
we think we understand his side
Of the case. All questions have
two sides you know.
The most an Editor can do
when he is raped on, is to look
pleasant. Editors come nearer
really carrying out certain IA
nous scriptural injunction than
any other class of mortals. They
have to. No other course is
open. The scriptural injunction
referred to is turning the second
cheek when smitten on the first.
If Editors would always bristle
up and take notice to everything
their lives would be one whirl-
wind battle from the editorial
sanctum to the grave. There
fore we remark that the lack of
mining news in these columns is
the fault Of mining men and
those interested in this mining
district. Instead of giving the
news TO the paper the rule has
been TO hide il from the Editor
and he is generally the last man
TO find out about a new mineral
strike. an unsual production Of
some mine or any other news
that would be of interest. II
the mine workers. mineral men
and all those interested in this
mining field will write Mr..
Gaines. telephone Mr.. Gaines,
coat sleeve Mr.. Gaines and give
him the news he will print and
be glad to do so. II is too much
to expect him to go forth armed
with a pistol to hold up and a
crow bar to open the mouths of
those who have news TO give
II each one who has the better
ment Of this district at heart
will cooperate in these matters
things will look better and be
better.
