Confirms Strike in Consolidated

F. l.. Morris, who arrived yesterday from Swansea, confirms the reported strike made in the Consolidated re- gently. and gives particulars of the zone where the discovery was made, besides displaying several samples of the ore.
 He states there is no question what ever of the imm ensity of the ore body determined, which has been opened for 100 feet on the 300 foot level. As says run to as high as 27 per cent. and the native metal predominates. De- velopment in the zone where this strike occurred is being rushed ener- getically to ascertain the extent of the ore body which up to Tuesday had not been passed through. The smelter has been shut down temporarily to h. stall the reverberatory furnaces, but when resumption takes place lively times are anticipated. The mine force consists of sixty-ive men. which will be added to as fast as new ground is opened up.-Prescott Journal-Miner.

To Solve Problem of
 Refractory Ore.

Extensive experiments have recently been in progress in behalf of the man. agement of the Manhattan Consoli- dated to discover an economical meth cd for successfully treating the re- fractory ore that was opened in large quantities several months ago in the Steiner lease on that property, and advices from officials of the company indicate that they are now sanguine of satisfactory solution of the prob lem within very short time.
 A roasting plan of burning out the arsenic, antimony and iron which in com bination baf1led attempts of the present milling methods of the camp, had been proposed, and much investi- gation has been made along those lines as well as others. Metallurgical tests have been made by some of the best experts in the United States, and it is now understood that it is proba ble that a purely chemical process will be evolved to successfully recover the values, and which will be less expen- sive than the standard cyanide meth cd. Further experiments are now being made to definitely determine just what can be accomplished in this line, and when this problem is thor oughly solved, it will at once open the mine to large production. There is an immense body of ore averaging about 1S$ per ton developed between the 100 and 200 foot levels of the Stetf- ner lease, but it's refractory character has made it impossible of treatment by standard cyanide or other methods now in vogue in this camp. Other wise this lease would have been one of the biggest producers of the district. Manhattan Post.

Copper.

Thompson, Towle x Co. say: It IS a conservative estimate that on the present copper buying movement of last month and this, total sales have aggregated between l50.00O, ,000 and 100000, ,000 lbs. pretty equally divided between Europe and this country, and prices have advanced under the stim- ulous of this buying from If B. to l5 IS cents. in fact the Calumet x Hecla advanced prices to l5 l-4 cents. and have sold all the copper they desire to at that price.
 It is apparent, therefore, that the decline in metal prices after sales of about 2OO,O0O,0OO lbs. of copper has been arrested and that under the stim- ulus of continued large consumption, higher prices may naturally be looked for.
 A very favorable producers report for March is Tn prospect. In recent three days period l2,00O,0OO lbs. of copper were shipped abroad.

The big de la Vergne engine that is to furnish power for the Frisco Gold Mines company, has been hauled out to the camp and will soon be in con- mission. Just what this engine will accomplish in the way of reducing power costs is unknown. One of the engines was used in Yavapai county for short time, but as it was at an elevation at which oil engines are not very efficient we cannot judge it's sue cess at lower altitude. The company is making many improvements and will develop electric power for all machines.

Daysey Mayme and Her Folks
BY FRANCES L. GARsIDE.

MO one on earth but mother
" can carry three suit cases. a
baby and a basket, and man
age six children and dog trailing at
her heels, and get to her destination
without losing one of them.
A man would lose half the children
and all his temper
There alighted from train one
morning a woman carrying a baby
on one arm; in her hands she held
three suit cases and a basket, and
there came trailing behind her six
children with open mouths and wide
eyes, and the last one dragged a dog.
The look of apprehension on the
faces of the hundreds behind the
gates, plainly telling a fear that they
might draw the party of eight and a
dog, lifted when the woman ap-
preached a policeman and made in
quiries for Lysander John Appleton.
The officer didn't know, but he was
plainly pleased to find out. He re-
turned in few minutes, gave her the
most minute directions how to reach
No. II Buncomb place, and assisted
her to car, even giving the conduc-
tor instructions.
The conductor had a car full. and
many passengers he let out too soon,
and others he carried blocks beyond
their destinations, but he was so So
licitous about the woman. seven chill
dren and dog that he stopped the
car in the middle of the street, and
personally helped the woman, seven
children and the dog off the car and
across the street to the front door,
In which kind act he was assisted by
all the passengers. Their kindness
did not cease here, for with encour-

At that moment the clerk whis-

to having his children vaccinated?"

Very well; if vaccination is not
