SiIver.

The silver market shows no material change in conditions or outlook. Quo- tations have varied but slightly from day to day with no special trend. There is believed to be large specu- latiye holding in anticipation of de- mand for the metal in the Far East. Whether these speculative holdings will come on the market before such a demands materializes is a question which cannot be answered as it de- bends entirely upon the holders abil- ity or willingness to carry their load.
 As there has been an apparent ex- cess of production oyer the consump- tion of the metal during the past year or two, commercial houses doing bus mess with silver using countries are watching the silver market closely Boston Commercial.

Good Smelter Returns.

The recent twenty-ton shipment of copper ore made by the Arizona Elm pire to the Hum boldt shelter averag- ed little better than sos per ton, and netted the company about 5O$ per ton, above treatment and transportation charges. This is considered an excel lent showing, and it is said that the Arizona Empire has many tons of the same character of ore in sight for shipment. The company contempates extensive development work in the fall, and regular shipments will be made to the smelter.-Parker Post.

Erecting Main SmeIter Stack.

A Douglas dispatch says:-Structural steel workers in the employ of the Calumet X Arizona company began work yesterday upon the main smoke stack of the new smelling plant. This will require several weeks to get in place. It will be 305 feet in height. It is supported by base of concrete and slag. The bottom diameter of the stack is forty feet.
 Structural steel upon the sampling mill of the new plant, which is five stories in height, has been completed. This, as well as the roaster dust cham Der, is up and riveted. The roaster flue is also erected, but not riveted.
 Concrete work for the Fines bed ding system, which will be one of the most modern portions of the smelter in it's Idea, will be completed this week. It will contain about 2OOO yards of concrete.
 Excavation will be begun this week for the blast tunnel, which will also be constructed of concrete.
 There are now 270 men employed in various branches of the work under way. There has been no shortage of labor in any department, and no such trouble is antici pated by the company. There have been no jars of any kind to disturb the even tenor of affairs and Superinte ndent of Construction Clark is feeling highly pleased over the out look for making record time upon the work in his hands.

Anaconda.

The Anaconda's 1ramway mine. which has been closed down for the past two months, has resumed opera tions. It was closed down to change the hosting engine from steam to compressed air, which necessitated new cylinders, bed plates and other changes, besides the installation of ample air storage boilers.
 Besides the main hoistng engine, the auxiliary hoisting plant also has been changed so as to operate with air. The Tramway is one of the larg- est producers in the Anaconda group.
 The next large mine to make the change will be the Pennsylvania. When asked when that mine would close, general superintendent Dunshee said that the reconstruction work on the Pennsylvania plant would start within two weeks.
 With the Tramway, the following mines are now hoisting with compress sed air made by electric power: High Ore, Mountain View, Diamond, Leon- ard and West Gray Rock.-Boston Commercial.
 The past few months have seen a marked increase in the working of sil. yer mines and prospects in this county. The "chlorider" is coming rapidly to the front, especially in Turkey creek district, where there are five small camps. and from which district ship ments of silver ore are of frequent oc- currence. In other parts of the county old silver mines carrying ores oe high grade are being worked, notably the Tiger, Swastika, Tip Top, Hidden Treasure and Zero. Gradually it is entering the inner consciousness of the miner that ore carrying POO ounces of silver at 50 cents per ounce, with a hy-product of lead or zinc in nearly every instance. is better than l00S gold ore-and is quite as easy to find in paying quantity. Silver has been be- littled for so many years that some people have acquired the habit of looking upon it as alueless-except when in the form of coin. As mat ter of fact, there is a better chance of profit in silver mining under present transportation facilities than there was forty years ago, with silver at 1.29$ and wagon haul of hundreds of miles. This is especially true in the case of the prospector who has ore averaging say 9O$ per ton, and who lacks the means for treating ore upon the round.-Prescott Courier.

NEW DRILL FOR
ARTISAN WELLS

FOR sinking oil and artesian wells
through hard rock new rotary drill,
bit. the invention of a Texas oil
producer. is coming into very gen.
eral use. Instead of scraping its
passage through rock. as did the
old one-piece bits. this new instru.
ment brushes its way downward at
rate many times that of the old
bit
me new drill is equipped with two
bits. one for dirt and one for rock
description of the new bit is of
interest, Beveled cones. similar to
beveled gears. set at an angle of
i've degrees above the horizontal
and working free from each other
on Independent bearings give the
toothed corrugations free play in do
ing their work When rock is en-
countered the dirt bit is replaced
by the rock bit which screws onto
the pipe by means of a large col.
lar. The pipe revolves with its total
weight resting on the rollers.
These are thus made to turn by
friction, and their hard steel teeth
powder the rock beneath rapidly. A
flow of water downward through the
pipe and up on the outside washes
away the powdered rock as fast as
it is produced A small pipe inside
of the collar contains lubricating
oil and metal float which forces
the oil through canals to the cones.
The hardest alloy steel is used in
manufacturing the bit The cones
are easily removed and replaced with
new ones when they have become
worn.

FIRE WLLEb fiMbEB.
More Durable Foy seme Purposes TAs4
 That From Green Trees.

That From 1Feen lCes$.
 Large bodies Of fire killed timber ip the west are now cut for fenceposts. says the Scientific American. The de mand for durable posts by ranchmeD has hiterto been met by the use of red cedar GunipeTusD, but its supply is now almost completely exhausted in a good many localities. The average life of n red cedar post Is about twenty years. while other species last only from three to ten years. Fire killed iodgepole pine when properly treated Eill last equally as long as red cedar. The forest service has demonstrated that dead timber treated with preserya- dyes nlay be utilized at moderate cost when compared with red cedar posts. which are expensive. Enormous quantities of dead timber in the west are being disposed of each year. which will considerably reduce the drain upon the forests The removal of this ma. terial leads to the improvement of con- ditions in the forests. because it less ems the fire hazard and insures quicker and better crops of young trees.
 In extensive burns in the west fire killed timber is often the only kind available. Its chief uses are for stuls tagging, fuel. house logs. lumber. mine props and railroad ties. In proximity to mine or to a spur of Eailroad dead wood has been used for many years for mine timberS and for cross ties. For mine props all species are used. In Colorado one mine alone uses approximately 4.fO0.000 board feet of dead timber every year. There are q great many mining camps that use dead timber exclusively because of its lightneSs, durability. stiffness. all due principally to it's better seasoning
 For many purposes fire killed timber is preferred to green timber because it is thoroughly seasoned and is in excellent condition for preservatiye treatment. as the moisture has com pletely eraporated which gives it more durability than green timber. It also renders it lighter, so that trans. portation charges are less. In parts of Colorado burned timber of all kinds is made into ties. some of the material having been burned over fifty years ago This timber is still standing on the stump and is said to be almost as hard as flint and very durable The species used are red fir. yellow pine. lodgepole pine. timber pine. Engel- mann spruce and blue spruce. It is asserted that dry ties last in many cases longer than green ties They hold a spike better. and tie plate does not cut into the wood SD seriously as it does in the case of q green tie.

The Fireprcof Building.

Nearly all modern industrial enter priseS are housed in buildings that are to some extent fireproof. The question may reasonably be asked. What con stitutes a freproof building: Nothing is more fireproof than furnace. and yet the decomposition of its contents by fire is its chief use Buildings must therefore not only be made of nonintammable material. but they must be so arranged that fire when started can be confined to one room or to the smallest possible space With this object in view they should be equipped with self closing metal doors and windows with wire glass or metal shutters. They should have automatic fire alarms, and above all an adequate sprinkler system Steel framing must be inclosed and protected with some material such as brick, tile. terra cotta or concrete. Under these conditions. with insurance on the contents. manufacturing enterprise is reason ably e.-Engineering Magazine.

EIGHT DEAD; 8 MISSING

ne government is 10 make q
rigid examination into the capsiz-
ing of a naval station boat off
Lake Bluff, ILL.,, yesterday.
Late this afternoon eight bodies
had been recovered. A govern
ment launch is trying to recover
the bodies of the three still miss
ing.
Chief,Gunner's mate w. Negus
took out the boat and "a recruits
yesterday without notifying the
officer of the day. He gave his
life for his mistake. He saved the
lives of two of the boys who
could not swim and was drowned
while going back formore.
The "a recruits begged Negus
to take them out in the boat yes
terday. Negus did not want to
do it, but all the boys were ex-
perienced, and he finally yielded.
A strong gale was blowing, and
there was heavy sea. Some of
the boys became seasick. Negus
turned the boat, and started for
shore. A wave struck the boat.
Two of the boys. frightened,
jumped overheard. In doing so,
they capsized the boat.
Commander Fullam has no
hope that any of the three miss
ing are alive. He does not even
expect their bodies will be recov-
