CITRUS CROP RUINED.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. S-The cold
wave is broken, but the harms done,
and Southern California orange and
lemon growers have suffered a loss
of many millions of dollars in a few
nights of frost such as no person
now living may ever see again. While
the freeze continued last night it
was in lesser degree, the temperature
being about 6 degrees higher all
around, and little additional damage
was done.
Citrus men yesterday estimated
tho loss at from $15,000,00 to $24,-
000, 900, or a shortage OF 81 $50 to
"a 00t cars in what had been estdnat-
ed a a 42,5OO-car crop still on the
trees. This takes no account of the
damage to trees. which is admittedly
'h6 ANY.

NO PERMIT GRANTED.

The Post was i'm error last week
when it stated that Superintendent
0. L. Babcock had issued a permit to
the New La Paz Gold Mining COM
pany to do its annual assessment
work ON the reservation The article
should have read that Mr.. Babcock
had acknowledged in a signed state
ment the fact that the company's
claims were located on the reserva-
ton and that the matter was at
present in litigation. This was done
for the purpose of protecting the
company ON account of it's inability
to perform its annual work required
by law 1t is expected that the in
terror department will make some
arrangement at an early date where

IN USE HAULING ORE FROM
MINES OF ARlZONA.EMPIRE.

The entire force of miners en-
ployed at the Arizona Empire mines
are now at work repairing the old
road between the mines and Parker.
In all about thirty-five men are en-
gagged IN getting the old highway in
shape 20 permit the moving OFF, ore
from Gold Hill by means of auto
trucks. That the work is progress
ing very satisfactorily was indicated
Tuesday, when the first load of ore
was brought to town by auto truck
Both trucks are now bringing down
ORE and within the next few days
they will be able to make at least
two trips a day after the road has
been put in better condition.
General Manager P. E. Beam of
the Auto Delivery company has an
nounced that it is his intention to
put in service here nineteen more
White trucks as fast as needed. Sew
eral more trucks are expected to
arrive in about a week or ten days,
when the old road will be in con-
dition to permit additional hauling
Before the month has passed daily
tonnage of 100 tons will be coming
from Gold Hill for shipment to the

Upon the completion of the work
now in progress ON the old road, con-
struction of the new highway will
be resumed by the Arizona-Empire
company This new road will lessen
the distance to Parker about two and

The returns from the last carload
of ore. which was shipped to the
Swansea mselter several days ago,
We're received by General Manager
Mitchell Wednesday, and the thirty
tons Melted the company approx
mately $500
This shipment was made from the
Eagle tunnel Gold Hill ore is not
expected to run as high as this, but
Mr.. Mitchell anticipates that it will
average around $40 per ton. This es-
innate rs arrived at from the returns
of numerous assay samples taken at
the mine the past couple of weeks.
The ore at Gold Hill is being quar-
ried, and Il few men are able to
break sufficient ore daily to keep a
dozen trucks busy getting che pro-
duct to town.
Since beginning work on this prop
city the values have materially in
creased. At first it was believed an
ave, age of only $40 could be secured,
but later developments show that
the average is between $40 and $50
per ton. In spots some very rich

countered and it is not at all unlike

partly to the rise in price of the
metal, which averaged somewhat over
1c cents a pound, against 1875 cents
in 1911. Although Montana recorded
larger copper output, it retained
second place among the states in
1912, as Arizona had a much greater
inc tease.
Colorado Production.
The output of Colorado mines for
eleven months of 1912 and an esti-
mate for December, shows a decrease
ct $500, 900 for gold, an increase of
{; GEO ounces for silver, a decrease
Of 100000 pounds for copper, an in
crease of 100000 pounds for lead,
and an increase of 27,OOO,O 900 pounds
for zinc With increased market
prices for silver, copper, and zinc,
the values of the output in 1912 was
over $4,00O,00O greater than in 1911
So 900, 900 in zinc and $1,000, 900 in
silver, the increased value for lead
and copper about balancing the de-
crease for gold. The output for 1912
IS therefore estimated at approx
mately $1S,7O0,OO0 in gold, 5000, 900
fine oIrces of silver, 1929, 700 pounds
of copper, 74,6SO,OO0 pounds of lead,
and 12l, 100000 pounds of zinc, vall-
ed in all at nearly $36,50O,O0O.
The tonnage treated by the Globe,
I.eadville. Pueblo, Durango, and Sail
da s,nelters showed an increase for
the year Ore was also shipped to
the Murray, Garfield, and Midvale
PLANTS III Utah. An increased tom
mage of complex zinc ore and con-
cc1ltrates from Colorado and other
western states was treated at the
United States Zinc Co.'S plant at
Pueblo.
The output of Cripple Creek show
cd an increase of 100000 in gold
EARLY in 1912 the drainage by the
Roosevelt tunnel had lowered the
water i'm many of the large proper
ties Except the Golden Cycle and
Vindicator mines), so that an adj
ditional 100 feet in depth could be
worked, and an increased tonnage
was mined during the year.
New Mexico Production.
The production of gold in New
Mexico in 1872 showed a small in
crease over the output of $762,8O8
in 1911; the output of silver an in
crease of about 10000 ounces over
the production of 1854 $40 ounces in
1911; lead an increase of about IL
100000 pounds from the yield of near
ly 3,000,000 pounds in 1911; and cop
per an increase from 4.057 040 pounds
in 1911 to about 28,000,000 pounds
in 1912. The output of zinc made
little change in 1912 from the output
of 10,237,17 pounds i'm 1911 The
increase in the value of copper alone
adds over $4,00O,000 to the value of
the output of New Mexico.
The output of gold and SILVER from
the cyanide plants at Mogollon, So
zorro county, showed small increase
and a slightly increased output of
the precious metals was also deriy-
ed from the gold aid silver-bearing

highly probable that when complete
detailed returns are available, the
1912 figures will be somewhat en-
4 HANGED.
The latest available complete sta
tiStics show that there are ,181 pro-
ducing mines in California, of which
596 are deep mines and 5S5 placers,
including dredge, hydraulic, drift,
and surface claims.
For several years there has been a
gradual decline in the copper output
of California owing to the closing
down of large smelling plants by liti-
cation over damages by smelter
fumes. In 1912, however, an increase
in output OF copper is apparent over
the yield of 1911, Notwithstanding the
permanent cessation of operations in
1911 Of one of the vary large plants
of the state. This increase is due
to the materially enlarged output
from mines of two Of the large COM
panies owning their own smelling
plants, to larger shipments from other
mines which were producers in 1911,
and to the advent in the producing
column of certain new or reopened
mines which supplied high-grade ore
to the custom smelters. The agita-
ton on the part of farming communi-
ties over alleged damage by smelter
fumes has by no means ceased. and
the operations of three of the most
extensive smelling companies of the
state are seriously menaced
Nevada Production.
The total metal yield from ores
mined in Nevada during 1912 was
valued at nearly $36,5OO,O0O, which
is little over per cent greater
than the value for 1911.
The gold output forms the largest
part, or 371a per cent, of the total
value copper nearly 3413 per cent.
silver slightly in excess of % per
cent and lead and zinc each over 2
per cent
The Goldfield Consolidated, ac-
cording to published reports, was
producing about 10000 tons of ore
month, but the recovery from ore
treated decreased from $25.08 a ton
in January to $13.13 in September.
The Manhattan and Round Mountain
districts and mines in the Fairview
district increased their gold yield in
1912.
There has been steady increase
in the annual silver output of Neva-
da since 1901, when the production
began at the Tonopah mines. In 1912
the producers of Tonopah increased
the yield of ore from about 5000
tons to nearly 10000 tons weekly, but
the average silver content per ton de-
creased.
An increase estimated at II per
cent IN the pfOQuctlOn or copper, from
67,377, 518 pounds in 1911, to about
100000 pounds in 1912, is due to
the new smelter at Thompson ON cop
per ores produced chiefly from the
Mason Valley and Nevada Douglas
properties, i'm the Yerington district.
Nevada mines produced great
er tonnage of gold, silver. copper,
lead, and zinc ore in 1912. but it
was probably not over per cent
greater than the output of 1911,
which aggregated 4,132,721 tons.
Montana Production.
AS result of the increased prices
OF metals and the greater production

represents an increase of nearly SO

ductiOn since that of 1906 About 70
per cent of this value came from cop
per alone, about ~ per cent from
silver, nearly 6 per cent from gold,
and nearly per cent from zinc.
An estimated decrease of over 5
per cent in gold production brought
the output of 1912 down to about 49,

There was also an increase of
about 5 per cent in silver, from
nearly 100000 ounces in 1911 to
about 12,5O0,OOO ounces in 1912
Instead of curtailing the output of
copper, as in 1911, when nearly 273,-
OOO,O 900 pounds were marketed, the
production of 1912 was brought up
to about 310,000,OOO pounds, or near

tons. It can be bought conveniently
at any drug store for fifty cents or
one dollar a bottle, and those who are
already convinced of its merits buy
the dollar size.
It's mildness makes it the ideal medi-
icine for children, and it is also very
pleasant to the taste. It is sure in
its effect and genuinely harmless.
Very little of it is required and its
frequent use does not cause it to lose
its effect, as is the case with so many
other remedies.
Thousands can testify to its merits

BOTH TALL AND SH0Rl
Star Baseball Players Are of All
Shapes and Sizes
sms!! Man Is at Disadvantage In
Many Sports but Not in National
Game-Lajoie, Wagner and
Cobb Are Big Fellows.

Baseball players come in all shapes,
and sizes, The player on the averages
is between five and six feet in height
and weighs from 140 to 200 pounds.
He is fat, lean, stocky, angular-in
fact, he may come in any old build,
While small man Ia at disadvan-
tage in many other sports, perhaps
football most notably of all, this Is
particularly untrue of baseball, and it
has proven often that the size of the
player makes little, If any, difference
in the national game. Lajoie, Wagner
and Cobb, perhaps the three greatest
players who ever donned a spiked
shoe, happen to be big men, but this
is the exception to the mighty good
rule that size makes very little differ
ence in baseball. If you happen to be
prejudiced in favor of either long or
short players take a glance over the
four teams recruited from the Ma
