Robert Bridges stands rather apart from
the current of modern English verse, but
his work has had great influence in a select

.BUTTE'S PRODUCTION
. OVER BILLION DOLLARS
PROBABLY LARGEST FOR A SIM
LIAR AREA, IN THE EN-
TIRE WORLD.

Butte has produced more mineral
wealth than any camp in the United
States, probably more wealth thon
Iany similar area in the world. Vi,-A
gina City, New. with it's famous Com
Istock ledge, would probably come sec
ond in the United States, with to-
tai production variously estimated be-
tween three quarters of billion and
5000. 900, coo. The following, from a
recent issue of the Butte Miner. gives
iod of 30 years.
"Since 1880, when the Anaconda
mine was opened as a silver property,
but quickly developed into u copper
yielded an estimated total of 7,000,-
100000 pounds of copper, having u
gross value Of $9SO,0 ,000, 900. based on
an average price Of IA cents per
pound. The Butte ores carry 2 Ii
cents in silver and gold for each
pound of copper giving total Of $l75.-
900, 900, and total value in copper,
silver and gold of s1.155,o00o0o.
In 1912 the Butte mines produced
s21,115,l7o pounds Of copper, against
a7O,a87 ,Ge9 In 1911; 27S,715536 in 1910.
3o6,147.6l6 In 1903 and 2es,272.4ao IN
1908. While the copper production "t
1872 marked new high record. II
greater reserve was created than was
known in the Butte mines in years.
During the past year the mines of
Butte produced a25NO,ooo pounds Of
blister copper, or more than 25 per
cent of the worlds supply the copper
alone producing a revenue of s57,ss7,-
500. The gold and silver in the cop,
per has a value Of $S,125,000, MAXIM,
gross output of the copper mines of
Rutte $65,S12,500. The market value
Of the zinc product Of the camp dur
ing The year amounted to close TO $o,-
900. 900. 1t Is conservatively estiin-
lated that the zinc output for the com
ing year will exceed $20,oo0,000 In
gross value.
"By the mining companies operating
in Butte at the present time there
are employed on the surface and un-
derground approximately 10000 men.
The average wage scale Is "a per day
for miners and muclSers. while sD'-
face men receive an average Of $3.50
per day. The payroll Of Butte
amounts to more than s1.5o0,00o

A few days ago press dispatches
from Washington announced that the
senate finance committee had agreed
upon a raise of tariff duties on lead

the duty on lead in ore is / IL cents

The Underwood bill, as 1t originated
in and passed the lower house of con-

per pound, one third of the present
rate. On zinc it provided duty OF

ROCHESTER MAKING GOOD.
Steady and Increasing shipments OF
Ore.

Early this year there was a bic
rush to Rochester canyon, Nevada, IN
the Humboldt range. an old minera
district 30 miles southeast of Love
locks, on the Southern Pacific railroad
This, from a recent issue of the Gold
field Tribune, indicates that the cami
is making good:
1.-The seventeen carload of ore has
been shipped from Rochester distlic
and the returns made, says th'
Rochester Miner. 1t is difficult I
this time. for lack of data, to make {
close estimate as to the value of tht
ore thus far shipped.
"rhe average carload has been 3.
tons and the value Of the ore ha'
ranged anywhere from $50 to $1,000 t.
the ton. It is believed that S35 is 8
tair average,
"This means that the shipments
from the new camp Of Rochester have
already reached SS5,751. Practical,
all of this ore has been sent out with
in the past two months. The ship
ments are expected to reach mp INT
the hundreds of tons a day after this

The Blue Star group is located
close to the South Fork and south of
it. east of the mouth Of Pine creek
Much of the development already
accomplished has been upon ledge
carrying six or seven feet of milling
ore the shoot known to be nearly 400
feet in length. Nine hundred feet Of
this work in drifts and crosscuts has
been done from 30ofoo shaft The
total development to date, shaft, tun-
nels, drifts and crosscuts, amounts to
$500 feet.
The present shaft to the bottom Of
the sump, is $40 feet deep. 1t is pro-
posed to sink 800 feet deeper, aud
with this purpose In view the prop
erty Is now being unwatered The
water Is now lowered to the drift
from the 500 n-fnot level. and it will nor
be long till actual sinking is under
way. The property has been idle for
some time past. The company has
been somewhat in debt but financial
arrangements have been and are be-.
ing made to take care of this and also
accomplish the extensive development
outlined above. The total expendt-
ture on the property to date is close
to $4,000
The Blue Star has good equipment
for the work in hand and good accom-
modations for the men employed. II
has good engine house and double
boilers and engines. comfortable
boarding and bunk houses. dry house
and also q barn.
All the timber and tagging neces~
|sary for the proposed new work is on
the ground and ready for use. Tha
ore showing on the property is good
and evidently, as in case of numerous
developed mines in the camp, all thar
is needed is further depth. The work
will be pushed as rapidly as possible
TO the 600 foot level.
