The Shawnee Herald gives the peo-
PIE of that city some wholesome ad-
v:ce which we reproduce below for
whatever 1t may be worth to Chicka-
sha:
"Cet-rich-quick schemes have been
the ruin of many an individual. and
many community.
1T seems that when once man or
a number of men fall under the influ-
ence of the hope Of speedily acquiring
wealth, ordinary occupations no long
er have any attraction for them The
Usual transactions by which a mod
crate amount Of money may be made
seem TO small, too insignificant. They
cannot wait; some big turn must be
made. by which the whole problem
may be solved by one stroke. And as
a consequence, the real road to sue
cess, that Of steady. consistent effort,
within the limits of their ability, is
passed by, and success is not accom-
plsshed.
"Ihe salvation Of such man or
community. is the realization of the
folly Of such methods, and return
to sanity.

Quarries in Cochise County

1t may be news to a great many south
western people to learn that one, Of
the largest marble deposits in the
United States exists in the Chiricahua
mountains in Cochise county, southern
Arizona. Experts who have examined
the field pronounce the Stone equal in
variegated coloring and texture to the
best commercial marble. A few years
ago a Colorado operator, John G. Kerr,
shipped a carload Of the marble to Den
yer. where it was made into samples,
and placed on exhibition in eastern
cities, attracting the attention of deal
ers to its superior qualities and finish.
Mr. Kerr's enterprise resulted in the
formation of a company to operate the
quarry on an extensive scale. Roads
were constructed, and heavy trac-
ton engine installed to haul the ma
chinery to the ground.
There is now an improved power
plant of ESQ horse power capacity, two
50-ton derricks, three channelling ma
chimes, number of drills, saws, rub

Despite Mexican Trouble

of $4,000 a month, In other words it
has paid dividends Of five cents a
share and will probably continue to do
so for several months hereafter. The
normal dividends have been half a pei
cent.
During May, 1.167SO7 tons of ore
were mined assaying 1854 ounces silver
per ton. Of this there was a recovery,
by concentration of 1882 per cent, and
by cyaniding of T4.11 per cent. The es-
timated gross value Of the 4e,515 fine
ounces of silver bullion in bars during
the same month was s52,549.5O, and the
gross value of the 16,035 fine ounces of
silver in the contracts was $16,997.10.
The receipts from hospital rents and

CLARA CONSOLIDATED
MAKES IMPROVEMENT
Extensive Development of
Property in Arizona Is
Under WAY.

The Clara Consolidated Goldfish
yer and Copper Mining company.
which purchased property located in
Yavapai county. Arizona, known as the
Clara, has arranged for the interchange
Of ores between the Humbolt and Swan
sea plants to SECURE fuxing ores which
will be started at once.
Since the company purchased the
property 1000, 600 tons of ore have been
established, and the smelter, and. p
miles Of railroad built from Bouse to
Swansea at an approximate expendi-
ture of 1900, 900. A new No. IL blower
will be Installed in the next few days
which will increase the treatment ca
pacity 10 $50 or 500 tons a day.
It is also the purpose of the manage
ment to install e Stag steam generating
plant. thereby using the waste heat in
the Stag for steam. This new power
will reduce by the use Of carbonaceous
fuel, the cost Of ore treatment at least
IS percent. The use of coke in smelling
Will be entirely eliminated by the new
furnace and Stag steam generator.
At the power house new 500 horse
power boiler is being installed, increas-
ing the horse power to 1900. Fifty
thousand gallons Of water are being
pumped from the mine daily and as
depth is reached the flow increases. A
switchback at the smelter is nearing
completion which VIII eliminate the
rehandling Of custom ores, coke and
timbers for the mine. The new A foot adj
ditioR to the converter building has
been completed. The mine has been
proved to a depth of 110S feet by cIlurn
drills and is still in the oxide zone.
1t is estimated that sulphides will not
be encountered until a depth of 1900
feet is gained
