Solves Problem of Treat
 ment of Ores.

That new era faces the interests of the Venezia Gold Mines Company of Crook Canyon, appears from the statement of E. L. Tomlinson, super intendent, while in the city recently, who says that the main obstacle in treating the output has been overcome by the introduction of the new Kelley filter and Pachuca tank system of cya- hiding ores. For several weeks dili- gent testing of the ores has been un- der way, and the process, he says, is fattering success. In connection with arriving at an economical and satis- factory method to treat the ores of that and other mines in the same zone, various devices have been installed during the last few months, all giving unsatisfactory results, until the above system was provided. Mir. Tomlinson states that at Parral, Mexico, the ores are practically of the same mineral and geological character as the Ven ezia, and are treated by the process he has lately installed. The Bert filter plant, which was recommended by several millmen, and which is exten- sively used in this territory, giving successful returns, was dispensed with, being found impracticable to treat Venezia or any other porphyry ore, for the reason that the shines are so fine and sticky that they will not readily discharge from the filter cloths without the expenditure of additional capital for extra mechanical facilities. By the first of August, Mr. Tomlinson says, the new apparatus will be attach ed to the company's twenty stamp mill and permanent operation will be in- augurated.
 During the months that have passed while the company was arriving at a method to treat the ores, development has been maintained, showing over 100, ,OO0 tons of ore exposed, while sink ing and drifting in new work of late shows greater ore bodies oi nigh grade than ever before. MT. TOmlinson is very optimistic over the future of his company's interests. Thousands of tons of ore are available in that section and it is probable part of the plant will be placed at the disposal of sev- eral miners, who cannot afford ship ping from the lack of facilities to han dle their product.-Prescott Journal Miner.

Silver Prince His
 Splendid Showing

So satisfactory has been the outcome of operations by the Swastika Develop ment companp, in the Bradshaw noun tains, that F. L. Wright, the presi- dent, has been called from Los Angeles to make an examination of the prop erty, arriving yesterday. He will leave today for the camp. Mir. Wright is elated at the outlook, and in a brief review of the year and half of steady development, says that he sincerely be- lieves the making of a profitable pro- ducer is established. He bases this belief on the showing at the deepest point ever reached in the property.
 The main shaft is loca ed on the Silver Prince claim, which in pioneer days had reached a depth of 40 feet. It has been driven to a depth of 100 feet additional, and in drifting east from this point, the rich ores of other days have again been developed, under the old tunnel which forms an inter- esting condition and revives interest in the possibilities of the property. Mir
 Wright states that at present a two foot body of solid galena and lead car bonate ore has been determined, streaks of which carry immensely high values in silver. Considering that this is the first work done on that property after so many years have passed, Mir. Wright is convinced that the mine was not worked out, but is yet in it's infancy.
 Included in the interests of the Swas- tika company is the Black Warrior, also famed as a heavy producer in the early sos, and which adjoins the Silver Prince. Four claims are owned, three of which are patented, forming a par allel system, and the main Assure is easily traced through the two mines. The company has a low capitalization, and is a close corporation, with no stock on the market.-Journal- Miner.

Don't Go to Peru on Chances

In a recent conversation the Amer ican consular agent at Cerro de Parco informed me that while the mines could almost always use ex- perienced American miners who were willing and anxious to work, the ordin- ary, inexperienced pick-and. shovel man could not begin to live upon the daily wages for which they can secure Peru vian natives for this class of labor. This has been repeatedly verified in the cases of sailors and general wan derers that have landed at this port and worked their way up into the mines of Cerro de Pasco, Casapaico, Morococho, etc., only to find them selves 100 to 1S0 miles from Callao and without means of returning
 In sounding a warning of this kind it is felt a service will be done the mining companies and the class of peo- pie referred to. Retrenchment rather than expansion is the order of the day here in almost all lines, and people are being released instead of being en- ployed. As a general rule it is con- sidered distictly inadvisable for any one. in mercantile, mining, educa- tional, clerical, or other lines of work to come to this expensive country with out having secured in advance a guar anteed position from a responsible con- cern here. Further, it must be re- membered that nearly all of the mines are situated at very high attitudes, ranging from 6,0OO to l6,OOO feet. Not only should one be equipped for severe cold and dampness, but no one should undertake even to visit most of these mines without having been examined by a competent physician in the United States as to the condition of his heart and pronounced fit to withstand such attitudes; otherwise severe physical dangers are incurred.-Consul General Robertson, Callao.

quire a large force of mechanics for many months to complete, and with the heavy construction work which will be continued at the Copper Queen elter for the remainder of this year, the outlook F an unusually good fall business season for Douglas is Certainly very bright.
 Not only will the business men of this city have an increased trade at home, but there is prospect of increas- ing activity in the camps in Sonora tributary to this city. Our business men are already beginning to feel the benefits of increasing rad and they have every good reason to expect more benefits as the fall season approaches. All that the citizens of Douglas have to do is to re ain their old time public spirit, al this city i'll increase its pace on he roa to greater prosperity and will grow into the u etro oils of Arizo a.

magnitude of the plan. It is common report that the Ellison Ranching com pany bears a close relation to the Nor mon church, being located in Layton, Utah, and it is said that three agencies will work with the Southern Pacific in the extensive development of northern Humbolt.
 E. R. Harroun of the Silver State, who was in Reno yesterday, stated that he doubted the extension imme- diately of a road to Caldwell, Idaho, as reported, but that in conjunction with the purchase of the tract by the Ellison interest, it would not be sup prising if the road from Winnemucca to Caldwell will be built without little delay. This road will extend in the same general direction as the Caldwell road, but will strike nearer to the National district and in addition will make a connection with the Adams & Turner property, which has been creating something of a sensation in mining circles in the past few months
 Mir. Harroun says that the Adams 6 Turner property is turning out some wonderful values-as high as 125S a pound, with gold of ineness of IFS an ounce. Winnemucca is rapidly filling up with strangers, including mining men from all over the country, and the proximity of the Adams & Taylor ground-only four and half miles north over Winnemucca mountain, will be reflected in surprising prosperity for the county seat of Humboldt.
 McDermitt, the proposed terminus of the line now talked of, occupies a somewhat equivocal position from a geographical point of view. Part of the time the postofice IS in Oregon and part of the time in Nevada. It is on the Oregon-Nevada line and when J. K. Hacker was postmaster he made it McDermitt, Ore. Now W. O. Baker is postmaster and he designates it ''Mc Dermitt, Nevada. ."-JOurnal.

Iron Is Pronounced
 King of Metals

The very root of the electrical in- dusCry is iron. Without iron it is doubtful if the larger generators and the mighty motors could be built, for the powerful magnets upon which these inventions depend for their power are all made of soft iron either in the form of thin plates or long wires cov- cred with insulation.
 Nearly every one is familiar with the common horseshoe magnet, which is but piece of steel bent in the shape of a horseshoe and charged with mag netism. When a steel bar of this shape is rubbed against another mag net it is charged" and will remain so for long time. The magnet used in electrical machinery are of the in- duction type-that Is, the magnetism vanishes just as soon as the current is taken from them. If you wind a long insulated wire tightly around a soft iron core and send through this wire weak current of electricity the core will be instantly possessed Of strong magnetic qualities. This fact is the basis of all electric motors and gener- ators. The field coils are usually made of a soft iron core wound with yards and yards of insulated wire. When the current is sent through this wire the soft Iron core is turned into a power ful magnet, and this magnetic power is used to drive motors or to generate more electricity.-E Bulletin.

c. & A. Shelter Con-
 struction Has Begun

A Douglas dispatch of July 13 says: Preliminary work has been we'll start ed at the Calumet & Arizona shelter in this city. in connection with the proposed new plant of that company, which has been planned.
 There are now nearly one hundred men at work on excavations for found- ations and cutting ditches required for complete sewer system for the ac- commodation of the entire plat of ground to be occupied by the new plant and buildings connected with it.
 A vast amount of grading has been done and slag is now being deposited in the low places to give level plat for the buildings and surrounding grounds. To do all the preliminary work required will take two or three months, but by that time it is expect ed that all the detail plans will be com pleted and by early in the fall material for buildings and furnaces, reverbatory anu DldSI, IOdSLClo os CbSsf VIII AO OOubt begin to arrive and by the end of the present year the construction work will no doubt be well under way.

Utah Copper to put
 3 ShoVeIs at Work.

A Salt Lake City, dispatch says: Some time during the present month the Utah Copper company will put three additional steam shovels at work stripping the overburden from the de- posit on tho ground once the property of the Boston Consolidated company. This will bring the total number of steam shovels working on overburden to l9, and an average of two are kept at work on eating out the ore.
 The management has found that more economical and more efficient steam shovel work can be carried on by one shift utilizing the daylight in stead of trusting to artificial light at night. A steam shovel with a normal digestive apparatus is expected te eat away 10000 cubic yards of dirt per month by operating one shift daily, so before the first of August the manage menJ should be stripping away 3S0, 900 yards of waste dirt monthly, an opera tion that is of such magnitude that the average layman can scarcely ap- preciate it.
 Reports from the Garfield mills are to the effect that splendid improve ment has been made in efficiency with the addition of the new equipment. The Arthur concentrator is said by visitors to be making as perfect a de- gree of metallic saving as any mill op- erating on like ore in existence. And not only is this plant making a high percentage of extraction, but it is taking the increased tonnage as well. This is another new feature of porphy- ry milling. The argument was used at one time that the money in the bus. mess was due to the enormous tonnage handled, even though at the smaller rate of extraction. Now the plant is said to do both the work and saving, meaning still greater earnings.

Mormon Colony in
 Northern Nevada.

The purchase last week by the Ellison Ranching Company of 17,OOO acres known as Riley. Kings River ranch in northern Humbolt, promises to mean a great deal in the history of the development of that section of the state. The extension of new railroad from Winnemucca to McDermitt on the Oregon-Nevada line and the colon ization by the Mormon church of thou sands of settlers from Utah are said to be included in the plan.
 The tract of land sold, it is under stood, brought at least 1OO,OOOS and the sum paid is an indication of the

Mining Conditions

Mining, in the west, is in prosper ous condition, or the industry is de- pressed, according to the view of the situation as taken from different stand points. Since the panic of few years ago there has been a scarcity of money for prospect development; but, when 1t comes to heavy mining, there never was a period, before, when such big undertakings were being carried on as at the present time. In order to prove this assertion it is only necessary to point to activities in two or three Utah mining camps. Take Bingham, for in- stance. Nowhere else in the United States is such heavy work going on, and it would be hard to convince those interested in this great camp that mining was dull in that section. In Tintic district, also, more work is now going on there than ever before; and, there are at least a dozen camps in the state where extensive operation and development is the urder of the day. Ely, Nevada, is another point that is teeming with life and vigor, and in localities throughout the west so much activity is in evidence that it would be foolish to refer to them as being dull and lIfeless.
 The trouble with a great many is that they cannot distinguish the diff ference between stock speculation and legitimate mining; the difference be- tween the incorporation of a company with a capitalization of a million, on property of unknown value, and a min ing enterprise that is producing and paying dividends. Just at this partic- ular time the wildcat" is not attract i've. and so the disappointed promoter feels justified in saying that mining is dull. On the other hand, let the an- nouncement be mace that a sensational strike has been made, in virgin terri tory, and, if the report is verified, it is wonderful the way that money will pour into the new field for purchase and investment. All ot which goes to show that interest is not lacking in mining, and that the condition of the industry is good.
 Mining is what a man makes it. If he is willing to work in order to make a producer, he will find that mining is in prosperous condition. If he wants to sell prospect for a quarter of a million, or incorporate a heavy com pany on a property of doubtful value, he will find conditions depressed.-Salt Lake Mining Review.

A Phoenix dispatch says: The city council Tuesday evening awarded the contract for the installation of a com plete sewer system to the American Light and Water Company of Chicago. This will cost the city of Phoenix 4OO.- OOOS. According to the terms of the ordinance authorizing the bonds, the Chicago company becomes the pur- chaser ot the bonds at par and accrued interest.

music of some kind. There is music
at their festivities, and music at
times of sorrow. The national anthem
was written by the lately-deceased
King Kalakaua, the author of several
songs. The native instrument, the
ukulele, is a creation from the old
Hawaiian instrument, the ukeke. Or
iginally it was of two strings, with
no set tuning to it, and it was strum-
med with straw Now there are four
strings, and the instrument covers
every known chord in music. The
