WILL ERECT MANSION
ON "ARD3N CRAIG

The building OF the mansion at
Arden Craig" the country home be-
ing established by X. C. Neiu on the
Applesate ranch purchased by the
Young Scotchman last winter. is to
commence at once, and the structure
will easily occupy the premier posi-
tion among Rogue river valley pal
aces.
Messrs. NJ. V. Sutherland and f. H.
May arrived in the city from Portland
Tuesday evening, the former the en-
gineer and contractor under whose
direction the plans for the building
were made, and the latter the super
intendent who will have charge of
building operations. These gentle
men left for the Applegate Wednes-
day morning.
The blueprint plans for the build
ing indicate not only a structure Of
architectural beauty, but of conven-
fence of arrangement as we'll 1t VIII
be 76X35 feet in. size, with two stor-
les and basement. The basement will
be of concrete, and will contain laun-
dry, drying room, servants apart
ments, boiler room, etc. The first
floor of the main structure will be
built of Newberg tapestry brick, laid
in Finnish bond, giving a most beau
tiful effect, while the second floor
will be English "half-timbered, plas-
tered.
The first floor will contain the
main living room. 1Sx32 feet in size,
from which will open an office and a
reception room. This floor will also
contain kitchen, dining room and sun
parlor, while the sleeping apartments
will be on the second floor The attic
will be finished for store rooms.
A pergola-effect porch, ten feet
wide will run along the entire length
OF the building. Roofing will be of
metal tile.
All floors will be of hardwood, oak
being used, and the plans call for
curly birch, red gum, sycamore and
quartar-sawed Circassian walnut but
Mr.. Sutherland says that the woods
may be changed, and native lumber
used in part. The second floor rooms
will be enamelled in white and old
ivory.
Messers Sutherland and May in
formed the Courier that all labor and
material possible will be obtained
here at Grants Pass, local people be-
ing given first chance in every in
stance in furnishing supplies, or in
taking the minor contracts. 1t is eX
pected that it will require from three
to four months to complete the build
ing operations, hut the work will be
crowded in the hope that it will be
done by the time Mr.. and Mrs. Neil
return from Scotland in late October
The site for the house is on a beau
tiful oak-coyerad knoll neal
the Applegate bridge. and back &
hundred yards from the county road
The grounds were arranged under the
direction of Mr.. Sutherland, who lef
the oak-wooded effect as far as pos
sible. Later drives will be laid ou
about the grounds. and the genera
landscape improved where nature car
be improved upon
The water tower will be erected a
this time also, but the other out
buildings will not be erected till thu

Old Qonininn.

Old Dominion is increasing its pro-
duction by treating larger tonnage
Of its lower grade ores. Having an
excess Of smelter capacity. IL is one of
the few copper mining companies in
a position TO do this. Last year il
mined and treated coo and 700 tons OF
ore daily This has been Increased
now 10 from $50 to l,200 tons.
As result of treating lower grade
ores, and of being obliged To reduce
the working day of its miners from
nine TO eight hours. and also of a 25
cents a day advance in wages, the cost
Of Old Dominion's copper will prob
ably be somewhat higher during the
last half Of this year. For the first
six months Of 1912 it's copper cost
was under nine and half cents.
With a ten-cent cost and "A pro-
duction Of 100000 pounds annually.
which should easily be possible next
year, and Tx cent metal market.
old Dominion would earn 1915 a
share for its stock. Scarcity of labor
is the only thing that is standing in
the way of a larger output at the
present time
Underground Developments at the
Old Dominion have been of a very
favorable character. At a point about
loo feet east from the main work
ing shaft the big easterly ore body
was crosscut recently on the 10th
level Cat vertical depth Of about T.
200 feeD, the deepest level in the
mine. The crosscut shows 10 or ~
ieet of IL per cent ore and Is or 20
feet OF good concentrating material.
This is not new ore body but the
same one that has been opened and
mined for a length Of 900 feet on
levels above In the 10th level cross
cut this ore is much more basic. car
rylng less silica and more sulphur
ana IRON fuxing elements that are of
great value to old Dominion.
The Taylor group of claims. adjoin-
ing the United Globe property on the
north. has recently been purchased by
old Dominion. The claims were talk
en- over on the principle of providing
in advance for the future. A cross
cut is being driven even now. how
ever which undoubtedly will be con-
tinued into this ground.
The management plans to increase
gradually but steadily the company's
productive and earning capacity. More
extensive underground development
and the 5o0-ton addition to the con-
contractor. which should be completed
next spring. will put the company in
position TO produce between 10000
600 ana 100000 pounds of copper
annually. Some Of the friends of
Old Dominion believe that within two
years the stock will be worth and sell
for 800 share. on this decline the
stock should be bought.
