go to the creamery and get the top

cash at ones by waiting for test.
Such an enterprise as this should
have the unqualified support of the
farmers and all the business men of
Madison. Rowland q Rogness will

The repair casting for the big en-
CINE at the power plant reached Bris-
tol this morning by express but was
not transferred to the south train
and therefore will not arrive in
Madison until tomorrow morning.
Upon arrival of the casting it is hoped
to place it in position so that the entire
city may have electric light service by
the last of the week. The big engine
has been out of commission about ten
days. and while the plant was able
to supply service for the business sec
ton. the residence portion of the city
has been compelled to resort to kero-
sene loamps for lighting. This has
been a great inconvenience. as people
using electric lights are not usually
prepared to switch to the lamp without
more or less inconvenience. One thing
about the breakdown at the plant, it
has revived the sale of lamps at the
stores.

GREAT FIND MADE IN. MINE IN M0HAVE
 COUNTY
Quartz Taken From 45o Level of Boundary Cone Contained
 Nuggets of Great Size.

Phoenix, May 29.-Newss of the dis coverY of ore running $100,O0O to the ton, in the Boundary Cone mine, Mo have county, was brought to Phoenix l by H. L. Harris and J P. Gideon, who arrived this morning from King man and registered at the Commer- 1 cial.
 i When the day shift of miners went to work, Saturday morning, it was found that quartz taken from the 45O ! foot level by the night shift, and thought to be waste material, carried i nuggets worth $40 to $1O0 each. Many of the large nuggets were pick ed from the broken quartz and it was found that the remainder of the mass was filled with gold chespas. Hurried assays showed that the ore averaged over $1OO,0OO a ton
 The ore was found about 100 feet east of the main shaft on the 450 foot level. The shoot that was be- ing followed ran about $50 to the ton. It was thought that the quartz on each side of the shoot was worthless but the night miners accidentally shot into a streak of quartz carrying values higher than any ore ever be- fore found in that district
 As soon as the day miners discover ed the gold they reported their find to the superintendent, man named ,Vassar, who immediately took steps to have the rich ore guarded. Miners from many miles around fiocked 10 the Boundary Cone, anxious to look at the quartz.
 Mohave county's mineral formation is very peculiar. There is what is called the old andesite'' and over that several hundred feet of newer andesite, deposited hundreds of years later by volcanic action. Until the last year or two it was thought that the values in Mohave mines did not go below the contact, but this theory has been proven incorrect in several mines including the Boundary Cone This present strike is far below the contact.

MINE TAXATION IN
 COCH|sE COUNTY
Some Changes under Assessment Plan
 Have Already Been Adopted.

Tombstone Ariz., May 29.-As a. result of the visit of the state tax con- mission to Cochise county, some changes under the new assessment system adopted will appear on the Cochise county rolls beginning this year.
 The commission has several i'm portant assessment innovations to in troduce, but owing to the fact that the assessment for 1912 is nearly completed in the various counties, the matter that is receiving the first consideration of the commission is the assessment of producing mines throughout the state to replace the bullion tax law just repealed. An equitable distribution of the tax is proposed on the basis of the past years gross production and other da- ta available to the commission. It is not known as yet just how much in- crease taxation the Cochise rolls will show on this item, but it is expected to show a considerable increase, al though a decrease of nearly $2,O00,00 in total gross production is reported by the mines of the county the past year, the Tombstone district showing a material decrease because of litiga- tion pending and the local shut down of last year.
 The matter of improvements, rel;t- tive value of producing mines and data bearing on producing mines as followed in other states is being con- sidered by he commission who are also basing their principal estimates on the gross output. With the com pletion of commission plans the Co chiSe assessment will, it is under stood, show a considerable increase this year.

IN THE MI NE s CAMERON MAkESB| MINING DEAL IN
 THE EAST
Has Gievn Option on Rich Grand Can yon Properties Which Will Enrich Former Delegate to Congress
 By $5, ,ooo, ,0Oo.

Having closed two mining deals, which will net him over $5,00O,000, Ralph Cameron, builder of the Bright Angel Trail into the Grand Canyon, and Arizona's last territorial delegate in Congress, arrived in Phoenix last week directly from the east. He has given bonds and options on 35 miil- ing claims just off the trail, in the Canyon. The purchasers intend to place immense milling plants on the ground and to construct an electrical plant that will generate between 15,- GOO and 10000 horse power.
 A Philadelphia syndicate has taken over seven claims near the Indian Gardens, half way from the rim to the bottom of the canyon. Twenty eight claims, little farther down to- ward the Colorado, have been bonded by New York investors, who have d. ready organized company and are planning to install necessary ma chinery.
 At present representative of the Philadelphia syndicate are in Denver purchasing machinery for a big mill which will Fbe in operation within a few months. Machinery of peculiar type is required to concentrate the gold bearing sand.
 Electric power is to be developed
 
 dian Gardens into Pipe Creek. There is drop of HOO feet at this place. The power will be used to operate the milling plants and will be sold to other persons who require it. Cam eron hopes to utilize it to pump water from the Gardens to the rim; from the rim it will be conducted by gravi- ty pipe lines to a spot just outside the three mile limit established by ha amt uvhn ho y,A Canyon was made national park, where be plans to conduct a model stock farm
 The bonds and options taken by the Philadelphia and Ney York capl- talists run for a year, at the end of which they will either relinquish the property, or pay Cameron something over $5,000,000. He has not the slightest doubt that they will take up the options, for they have sent some of the most renowned mining ex- perts in the world co look over the ground and report. It was upon their reports that the two big deals were closed. Mir. Cameron did not send any mining experts of his own along with. the examining engineers he sent only guide, who did not know who the engineers were or what they wanted.
 I have always said that 1 would make more money out of the Grand Canyon than any other man" Mr. Cameron said at the Adams. The Bright Angel Trail has been only a side issue with me-
 It was in 1884 that Ralph Cameron first went into the Grand Canyon. In 1887 he returned to prospect and located some of the claims involved in the present deals. In 1890 he be- gan work on the Bright Angel Trail, and in 1891 it was completed. Other claims were located from time to time till he had a total of 35, seven in one group and 2S in another, some are lode claims and others are locat- ed as placers.
