plenty of help. Under these circum- stances, two working policies present. ed themselves to the directors, the | first being to mill on reduced scale and adopt an ultra-selective mining policy, and the second being to sus- pend milling operations for the pres ent and proceed with shaft.sinking in to the still deeper areas of the mine, in the hope of finding ore of higher grade. If the advisability of carrying out either of these working policies failed. the only alternative would be to close down all operations at the mine and so conserve the cash resourc. es of the Company until suitable op- portunity and time arrives for work. ing the mine on an enlarged scale, and increasing the capacities of the ore-reduction plant to 60,000 tons per month. After mature consideration it | was not considered sound mining policy to adopt strict selective-mln. ing method, whereby most if not the whole of the best ore reserves would be depleted in quite short time, leaving a balance of such poor ore as to render its profitable extraction an im possibility in the near future. To stop milling operations temporarily, and expend the cash resources of the Company in prospecting by shaft slnk- ing the still deeper improved areas, did not offer much attraction. for it seemed doubtful whether the deeper areas would. if proved, contain ore of a higher average value than 4$ per ton, even if these operations were con- fined to the Howard or richest part of the mine. It was therefore decided that, with the present pauclty of native labor, the continuance of mill ing operations was impracticable. that the present cash in hand was not suf- ficient to put the mine and mill into a condition to produce and treat 60,O00 tons per month, and that under the circumstances it was deemed best to suspend all work at the present and await the arrival of period. accom-. panied by conditions as to native labor and otherwise. and when it will seem possible to place the mine in per- manently satisfactory position Min- ing and Scientific Press.

The grade of the oil is very high, being 2S gravity, which commands about IS barrel. The feature of the birch No. is the continuity of its flow. After period of two years it is still producing about 1900 barrels day, bringing a revenue of as many dollars. No other gusher in California has huwed so long time. The we'll was assessed thls year by the Orange County Assessor at 1,000,000$ The company values it at twice that. Con- sidering the actual financial returns, this well has no equal in the state, as far as is known Close to we'll No. 5. on the Birch lease, is No. 6 which is down 3S40 feet and which would have been close rival of No. if two sets of drilling tools had not been lost in the casing These could not be re- covered and have impeded the free flow of the oil However No. 6 some- times produces as high as 6JO barrels of 2S gravity oil day without pun o. ing.

We'll Yields Big Profits.

The possibilities of big profits in the oil business are well illustrated in the story of famous Orange couuty well. as told ln Los Angeles Times
 Thirty miles east of Los Angeles in the Puente Hills of Orange county are the Brea Canyon oil fields. These fields have only recently been opened and are not as yet extensively de- veloped, but the two square miles on the north side of Brea Canyon in which fifty deep wells have been sunk are conceded to be among the richest two square miles of oil land in Cali fornia.
 Aside from the quantity of oil pro- duced. the value of these fields lies more in the high grade of the oil It is exceptionally we'll adapted for re- thing purposes.
 For ten years oil has been develop ed in Brea Canyon from a few shallow wells, but it was not until 1911 that the Birch Oil Company sunk it's fam ous No. we'll to depth of 396O feet and brought in gusher which flowed 24O0 barrels day, that the develop ment work started in earnest.
 The Birch No. is located high mp on a barren ridge overlooking Brea Caryon. It took three years to drill, at cost of nearly lOO,0OOS. From the time drilling started the work was | prosecuted without moments rest. Finally at 396O feet a stratum of oil sand was encountered, With an enor- nous gas pressure. Before the water in the well was blown out an adequate valve has been installed in the casing and when the gusher ''came in'' the entire supply of oil was saved and the | flow kept under control.

Johannesburg TransvaaI.

The prospects of deep mining on the Rand have not been improved by the recent closing down of the Jupiter mine. Of the three deepest mines on the Rand, namely, the Cinderella Deep, Simmer Deep, and Jupiter, the last has led the way. and the lowest point reached is over 5000 it. below the shaft collar. Of the other deep mines, it has also been deemed advis. able to suspen1 operations at the Gin derella Deep. while at the Sumner Deep, despite the fact that very large sums of money have been spent in its equipment, the results obtained are far from satisfactory.
 1t will be remembered that six months ago, at the last meeting of the shareholders of the Jupiter mine, the situation of the property was carefully explained, and it was announced that the board of directors was considering the advisabil of increasing the ca pdCiIN Ol Juo OTO EcuuCIlOu IFOtu O,OOO to ,000 tons per month, and SO enable the mine to earn increased profits with ore of a mine grade of HOS per ton. This scheme was de- .cided upon, and every arrangement made necessary for the successful carrying out of the enlarged scale of operations, even to the raising of the necessary capital, but the strike dis. turbances in July, and the consequent exodus of native labor. made it neces- sary that the board of directors should reconsider the position. Without an adequate supply of native labor, some doubt was expressed as to the possi- bility of carrying on profitable opera tions at the Jupiter mine on an en- larged scale, for it cannot be said that the natives are in any way fond of working in the deepest mines of the Rand, when, as a rule, only an ample supple of labor can be obtained when tho outcrop or shallower mines have

Large Scale Gold Mininq.

Juneau is fast becoming one of the great mining centers of the world. Across Gastineau channel the Tread well group of mines has long been fam
 ous for the low grade of ore and the great scale of the operations. The new central shaft is equipped for handling 5000 tons per day from depth of 5000 feet, and even more extensive opera tions may be expected. Tnls, however. is about to be surpassed on the nam land. In Silver Bow basin immedi- atsly back of Juneau is great gold. bearing lode that has been worked on small scale for number of years. Last year Mr. D c. Jackling and the
 late 4. F. Holden becaEs interested in the Alaska Perseverance mines at the south end of the lode and the Alaska Gold Mines Company was organized to finance large scale operations. Through it's subsidiary company, the Alaska Gastineau, a 6O ton mill is now being
 built and the mine is being rapidly prepared to furnish ore for this camp. Probable extensions are already fore casted The csntral portion of the lode is owned by the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company, in which Mr. F. w. Bradley and associates have a controlling interest We gave some account of this property in our issue of May 3l, and have the pleasure of print ing this week an authoritative state- ment as to the mining problems in, volved, written by Mr. Bradley. He tells much of technical interest and gives an insight into the conditions that permit planning work on the basis of milling l2,0OO tons per day for 100 years. Truly such gold mining is of new order. North of the Janeau is the Ebner property which, after nu- merous vicissitudes. has now been brought into some semblance of order as regards titles, and is under option in the interest of the United States Smelling Refining & Mining Con- pany. Tho ground is to be tested by a long deep-level adit, such as has been driven at the Juneau and the Perseverance, and, If development is favorable, another great producing unit may be expected. According to present plans, total daily production of more than 10000 tons may be ex- pected at Juneau within the next four years. This will furnish work for , something more than 30,000 men and will require d generation ot 40.- 900 horsepower, besides furnishing a market for machinery and supplies of the first order. All this may not be so romantic as finding another Cripple Creek" but the establishment of a practically permanent industry of this order in Alaska means more for that terrltory-Mining x Scientific Press.

In the spiritual exaltation of the mo-
ment he almost expected to find that
sweet face peering at him benignantly
from out the dim background. But he
could not see her, and he rose. re-

as TO her presence. God to him was
the universe, and his mother the un-
questionable means of communication
with the Providence that governed his
life. He would die rather than aban-
don that belief. Were It dispelled from
his mind he was quite certain that his
wealth would vanish with it. It was
no haphazard accident which had sent
the diamond-laden meteor headlons
from the sky. He was despairing. dy-
ing; his mother appealed for him; and,
behold! the very elements that con.
troll the world obeyed a mighty behest.
He began to work methodically. In
the first place, he lit a fire, for the
evening was chilly. Then he shook
his mattress and swept the floor, gath
ering into a heap all the tiny particles
with which It was Uttered. These he
collected in piece Of newspaper, and
folded them into a parcel, which again
he inclosed in a. stouter sheet of brown
paper finally tying the whole with a
yard of string he carried in his pocket.
