Timber Trouble In Anaconda.

One of the vexatious problems as they exist in the Anaconda mines Is explained by the following remarks of General Superintendent John Gillie of the Amalgamated, made before the legislative Investigating committee in Butte. MT. Gillie spoke at some length concerning the difficulties to be met and overcome and of the i'm provements that are being instituted to better conditions under which the miners work.
 The question of temperature is a diff icult one to overcome, said Mir. Gillie, primarily on account of the vast amount of lumber used and the kind of ore existing in the mines. The company uses yearly about 75,OOO,OOO feet of board measure, 275, ,OOO feet of sawed timber and about 25O,OOO round timbers. As soon as this timber yoes into the mine an oxidation com mences, practically amounting to bur, . ing Il. This consuming process may be distributed over period of any where from 20 to 40 years, but during this time the number of heat units in a stick of timber, if it have been given off the same as though it had been burned in a stove.
 In speaking of the character of the ore, Mir. Gillie stated that it is sul- phide or sulphur and other compounds designated as sulphides, and an oxid- ation is taking place in the rock itself, which also produces heat. The fact was also mentioned that the deeper into the earth operations progress the warmer it becomes.
 For sone years the Anaconda Co. has been devising plans to overcome the heat question, and during the past , few years many of the mines have been equipped with forced ventilation, at the present time over 750.0OO cubic feet of air per minute going into the hines.-New York Mining Age.

capital. It is entirely possible for three or four men working on a simple 'grub-stake' to discover a de- posiU and develop a profitable mine. We have known 120,OOOS ln dividends to be paid within eighteen months on an investment of less than l0.000S. The risk, however, is large, for here, as always, rich ores are irregular, perplexing to find and difficult to fol- low. The sheet-ground deposits are much more regular, though even in mining them managers have their troubles. The grade is low, the con- tent of the great horizontal beds of chert so far explored averaging ? to 1 per cent. Mining costs in sheet ground, because large-scale operations are possible, may be kept low, but the ore is difficult to mill, and the metal lurgical losses arc high. So far the sheet-ground mines, while contribu- ting largely to the output and offering much encouragement for the future, have not been cOnspicuOusly profitable. There is a widespread feeling that the fut re of th .i pin dis rict lies in the sheet-ground, and that it is to be a flu re of large scale operations, low costs, and steady production. If so, it will in-v tably he ut re in which corporations representing many stock holders replace small partnerships and individual operators. Zinc mining will be % IT. m re like r., per mining, but this is contigent upon a satisfa " price for spelter. In the long run this means that new uses must be found for the metal, since con- sumption per capita must be increas- ed if zinc is to gain in price and on other uetals. Temporarily prices will be influenced by such incidents as the withdrawal of American buyers from Mexico because of the insurrection, but in the long run the price ort will be governed by the demand for metal, and only those mines may work in which the grade of ore IS sufficient ly high to insure or promise profit Improvement in technology gradual! l CTS the line that marks of ore from rock, but in zinc the possibilities in the direction of improvement have been discounted to an extent not gen. erally recognized.-Mining & Scienti- fic Press

and the disastrous rate war with the Golden Cycle interests has cut down the margin of profit to the pres ent unsatisfactory basis. The fact that the Golden O cle's ores are large ly furnished by its own mines, while the U. s. Company is entirely depend ent upon custom ores gives the former the advantage, but there is Likelihood that some deal will be made before long with the Golden Cycle interests which will put things on more satis- factory basis. Results from the big drainage tunnel, while not as satisfac- tory to date as expected, do not mean that the tunnel is a failure. The eff ects of the 5000 gallon flow per min ute are beginning to be felt in the dis. trict and the further expenditure of 40, ,OOOS on the tunnel should greatly add to its efficiency. President Hawkins statement that develop ments of the last year have apparent ly proved that Cripple Creek is deep camp, and that perhaps more ore may be looked for in the depths below the present workings than has been ex- tracted or developed above, furnishes ray of hope for the future of the com Mining Age.

LONG Criminal TERM
COUNTY court over
TWO HUNDRED AND NINETEEN
CASES WERE DISPOSED OF
SINCE OCTOBER 81.

The longest criminal term that has
been held in the county for two years
came TO an end late yesterday after
neon, when the last case on the docket
was disposed of and the jury dis
missed for the term. The first Grim

tirued until November 4. The civil
docket was then taken up and ended
on November 25, when the criminal
docket was resumed and continued
until yesterday.
Two hundred and nineteen GRIM
inal cases We're set for trial and each
and every one was disposed Of either
by a trial, dismissal or continuance.
Possibly 200 of these were liquor"
cases, the state having had about half
and the city about half.
Only a rather small percentage Of
the cases were tried. and the prose-
cution got about so per cent convic-
tions.
Only two cases were tried yesterday
The appealed case of the city versus
Walter Rodgers was dismissed by the
city attorney after the case had been
tried. on the grounds that there was
not sufficient evidence to hope for a
conviction. The other case, that Of
the state versus G. w. Standfield, was
tried and the jury brought in a YER
dict Of not guilty.
The balance Of this week and up to
December 30 will be taken up with
hearing motions and demurrers.

HOG CHOLERA SERUM.
Quantity Can Be Obtained From A
and M. College.

saltwater, Okla, April II.
Editor Ardmoreite:
Dear Sir:-The Third Legislature,
recently adjourned, appropriated
$500 to be expended by the col
lege in the manufacture and distri.
button of hog cholera serum. The
college has been manufacturing Sc
rum in limited quantities for some
time and this has been used with
excellent results as a preventive of
cholera in hundreds of communities.
This serum is not cure.
With the increased funds available
for serum work the college is now
prepared to multiply the output Of
serum many times and we hope by
doing this to meet the expectation
of the legislature and to practically
stamp out the disease now so prev
alent in Oklahoma. Doses of serum
each and the amount received will
be placed in a revolving fund and
reinvested in the manufacture Of
serum. BY adopting this plan We
hope to cover all sections of Okla
hOma with a comparatively small
appropriation at our disposal. Some
states have provided large sums
for the campaign against hog chol-
era which has rendered it unneces-
sary to charge applicants for serum
sent out.
Your cooperation and assistance
in fighting this disease is desired
and requested The college will give
further information upon application.
Sincerely yours,
J. II. CONNELL, President.

manufactured h< the college will be
quadrupled within the next thirty
