Lost Lead Found in Old Fortuna.

J. M. Drennen came in from For tuna last night, bringing interesting news from that thriving camp.
 Speaking of the discovery of the con- tinuation of the vein from which the ore was taken during the ownership of c. D. Lane, Mr. brennan states that the explorations for the continuation of the vein, which had been broken away through the agency of earth. quakes, had been made in several di, rections and the drift in the direction in which continuation lay stopped only a very few feet short of reaching the object of the search. In the course of time. perhaps assisted by decomposi- tion from atmospheric causes, the few feet of intervening rock fell away, re-. vealing the treasure so laboriously sought in vain.
 The operations now under way have already blocked out at least 10000 tons of ore, estimated to be worth 355 per ton
 The new management has turned the shafts and drifts of the old work. ing to account as reservoir for wa ter by building a concrete and rock dam in the canyon little above the mouth of the shaft.
 Thursday night a heavy rain fell in the mountains and half a million gal. Ions of water were impounded and stored in the shaft. This makes a considerable saving in the expense of pumping water for use in the camp and the mill.-Yuma Sun.

Washoe SmeIter
 Closed for a Week.

Butte, Montana, dispatch says The Washoe shelter of the Anaconda Copper Mining Co. was shut down Oct and will remain closed until next week. Some necessary repairs are being made to the hue system. The concentration is being kept going at full capacity and is taking care of the usual amount of ore from the Butte mines, so that. unless some unforeseen reasons arise, the mines will continue to operate on concentrating ore, and when the repairs at the smelters are completed the enforced curtailment of metal production will easily be made up from the accumulated concentrates. Meantime the Great Falls concentrator and shelter are going full capacity and carrying on part of the Washoe shelter load.
 The story, not infrequently put out by interests apparently associated with the Butte Ballaklava company, has been circulated again to the effect that settlement of the pending liti- gation with the Anaconda Company had been made and that the Ana. conda would take over the Butte Bul. laklava at a figure advantageous to the latter company Upon the strength of the story the stock of Butte-Bullaklava took a spurt, going up 2S to 4S share. c. F. Kelley, vice president of the Anaconda company and it's managing director, denies very positively that there is truth in the story.
 Davis Daily Copper has been con- pelled to shut down mining operations at the Colorado mine for several days because of inability to get cars for hauling ore to the shelter, the ore bins being full.
 The Butte, Anaconda Pacific Rail way, owned by the Anaconda company, is operating successfully by electric. ity from the mines at Butte to the Washoe smelter at Anaconda. All the equipment has been received. It is the first completed electrified rail road system in America.
 Early next spring there will be an other zinc producer in the field in the Elm Arlin, the property of former Senator w. A. Clark. Work has hnn l | t>N

The mill will | have capacity of l50 tons to start with, but before the summer is out it is expected that it will be enlarged to 500 tons day. Senator Clark has had | many difficulties to overcome before he commenced construction. One was the securing of sufficient water to operate the concentrator.

Electricity and Plant Life.

The theory has been advanced and
backed up by experiments which are
at least interesting. that pointed
leaves standing up at the top of grow
ing plants attract electricity from the
atmosphere and that such electric
forces aid materially in the growth OF
plants so equipped by nature. One in.
vestigator. r. E. Dimick of Almena,
Wis, reports that vegetables which
were well cultivated have shown a
smaller growth than the normal when
they had pointed wires stuck up
among them to act like lightning rods
in drawing off the electricity which
Mr.. Dimick believes to be attracte d
by points and needful to plant life.
