some time. The property is one of the richest in the southwest and the management of the company has con- sistently declined to put it's metals on the market at such a price as has been obtained in recent years. When early in the fall of 1910 it looked as if the price of metal was about to ad vance, production began and ship ments were made to the Copper Queen smelters. The following June the company ceased production after hav- ing paid three dividends of IS each on the stock. This was because of the low price of the metal, and the direc- tors announced that the production would not be resumed until a better price prevailed. A force of 20 men has been retained ever since on the development work, and the company shipped only such oae as cane out of the mine incidental to this kind of operations.
 The Shattuck mine's ores run high CT than the average for the Warren district which contains much high grade ore. One of the largest and most important strikes of high grade ore that has been reported from any source has been in progress of develop ment in the Shattuck for more than a month.
 The Shattuck during the limited period it was producing distributed l. 050,000$ in dividends, and now has more than 300,000S in the treasury. This was done with shipments of about 100 tons per day. The ore re- serves in the mine have been greatly enlarged since the shut down and de- velopment work has been singularly successful.
 It is presumed that the Shattuck shelter will be located in Douglas as it is known that the company has long contemplated locating plant there. It is supposed that shipments pending the completion of the shelter will go to the Copper Queen plant. Review.

Ore is Opened Up
 at Gibson Mine.

At the Gibson mine nine miles west of Miami, the drifts on the fourth and fifth levels south are being advanced and it is reported that considerable shipping ore has been opened up ready for stoping, above the fourth level, where the vein is exposed for length of nearly 100 feet.
 Ore is being hauled by the company's teams to Miami where it is loaded on cars and shipped to the Old Dominion smelter.
 The work was delayed somewhat during the latter part of the week as the entire force of miners under Tip Henderson has been assisting In the rescue of Henry Peryman from the Cracker Jim shaft at the Five Points mine of Manitou Copper company Globe Silver-Belt.

Shelter Site to be Decided.

Sometimes it is necessary to go a long ways from home to get the news that is especially of local interest. Such happened to be the case in re- ference to the Shattuck shelter. Noth- thing has been given out locally as to plans and it is from Duluth that the latest information comes. The fol- lowing is from the News-Trbune:
 'Please put on night shift, secure shelter site at once and push all neces- sary work as fast as possible"
 The foregoing is part of telegram which Thomas Bardon of Ashland, president of the Shattuck Arizona Copper country, sent to L. c. Shat. tuck, general manager at Bisbee, last Sunday night. The news appeared in the copper gossip yesterday and means that the Shattuck mine is to not only begin production but that the con- pany is going to smelt its own ores in its own plant.
 News of importance has been ex- pected from the Shattuck people for

A Duluth dispatch says that nego- tiations for control of the Shattuck- Arizona property in Bisbee by the Phelps Dodge interests, are under way. The asking price is said to be several dollars per share in excess of what the Copper Queen people are willing to pay. Mr. Shattuck claims that the recent strike of high grade ore has added greatly to the value of the property.
 The company is capitalized for 350,- 900 shares, par l0S, and now selling around l9 l-2. It produced 4,lll,O00 pounds of ore in 1911 and paid Is divi- dends (the last being Jan. 20, l9lD, but the property has been shut down for six months.

Dispatches from Pearce state that in order to de- termine the exact kind of mil recuir- ed two carloads of the various ores from the mine have been sent East for analysis, and it is believed that work on the mill will be commenced by May 1.

The Mining Game.

From time to time the editor is in receipt of inquiries as to the value of such and such property in which per. sons have been asked to put their money. Now, all that can be said in answer to many of these queries is that the property is a prospect and that as such it stands as good chance as many others of making mine. No one can see into the ground. All that we have to guide us in prospect work is the indications. It may be that a showing on the surface will, with a
 little development, turn out to be of no value. The vein showing values at first may pinch out. But, this is not often the case. A vein showing any thing of much value is pretty certain, especially in Searchlight district, to become stronger and riches as depth is atalned. The only way to find out the worth of mine is to work it, and this cannot be done without money. And anyone wishing to put money in- to prospect must be willing and game enough to take chance, and if need be, be a good loser. It has been said that mining is gambling This is in sense true, but the chances are much different than those at the gambling table. And, then, if winning is made there is pretty sure to be good win hing.
 Most people unfamiliar with mining have an idea that all that needs to be done is to equip oneself with a pick and shovel ard go out and dig. This was at one time true in the good old pioneer days of California, when all one had to do was to pick out likely gray ell bed and sluice it out. But with quartz mining, such as in this district, conditions are altogether different Mining here is business, requiring money and business judgment. A shaft must be sunk, in most 200 or 300 feet. This cannot ia dsne with pick and shovel alone. Provision must be made for putting in hoisting plant, timbering the shaft so that it will be safe to work, pumping plant when water is encountered, and when the ore body is opened up reduction plant must be put in to get the precious met al out of the rock, or else provision must be made for transportation of the ore to reduction plant. Gold cannot be picked up here in the nugget form. It must be dug for, and when found means must be used to wrest it from the rock.
 And while the development work is going on money must be provided for the payment of wages and the purchase of supplies. Thus it can be seen that to mine successfully here, one must be willing to put in the money and not expect golden returns with the first stroke of the pick. But the history of Nevada has shown that this is the sort of mining that pays well. All the noted mines of Nevada are deep mines, and in almost every case, as depth is attained. values have increased and the dividends have been greater in proportion.
 The mining industry requires stick to-it-ivenCss. A man who is liable to get cold feet had better stay out of the game.-Searchlight Bulletin.
