Plans for Water.

An unusually dry season, delay In
completing its reclaiming plant ana
an accident 10 the portion OF the lat
ter already in commission caused a
slight shortage OF water supply at the
Chino concentrator during the past
quarter, but this did not materially
Interfere with production. II has led
the mana cement 10 decide to begin
Immediately the development OF the
additional water supply which was
purchased some months ago. IN
doubtedly il is the intention OF the
mana cement to enlarge the COM
pany's conccntrator after this new
water supply Is available.
During the three months under re-
view Sl,5Io, 900 OF Chino bonds were
converted into stock, leaving only
1854. 500 outstanding. This was done
because the stock, on which divi-
dends at the rate OF IS are now paid,
yields twice the income that the
bonds do the latter being convern-
BILE into stock at $50 per share.
Taken as a whole, the quarterly re-
port just issued shows that Chino is
making satisfactory progress BY the
end OF this year the company should
be producing copper at the rate Of
1000 900 pounds monthly at cost of
cents q pound. With the metal SELL
Ing at l6 cents this would mean
earnings OF SOS per share annually
on its capital stock. Even when this
Is accomplished there will be still
greater possibilities ahead.

Ray Operations.

or course Ray is not doing nearly
as we'll now as II will after its min
ing operations get well into the richer
portion OF its ore deposit. The ore
now being mined from the top OF the
ore bed is running only 1.70 TO LA
per cent whereas the average grade
of It's demonstrated S0,000.000 tons is
go per cent Ii the mill were
handling go per cent ore now the
actual recovery per ton would be
about thirty pounds OF copper
The eighth and last section OF
RAYS concentration will be completed
this month II is probable, there
fore. that the daily tonnage OF ore
treated during the last half OF the
year Will average around 1900 tons.
There is reason for the belief that the
total capacity OF the mill can be
raised eventually to 10000 tons daily.
At present Ray Consolidated is
earning a the rate of SEQ per share
on its stock and paying S1.50 an
nually in dividends Otherwise
stated il is earning 11.55 per cent
and paying per cent on the current
selling price OF its shares. In view
OF the fact that 1t IS getting these
results before the property has fully
emerged from the development and
constructive stage, that II is still
treating ore much below the aver
age grade of It's deposit and that a
further considera BILE Increase OF out
put and reduction OF copper costs are
only a little way ahead Its stock
should prove q most excellent invest
ment and a highly profitable specu-
lation.

Ted" the pustoffiee cat, which had
for the past seven or eight years Kept
the number of rats and mice in the
mum, is no more, or, as the Count Of
Monte Cristo would say. he has
ceased to exist" The date OF the
cats demise was Saturday evening.
and II is understood that he went hence
by special delivery at the hands of
the young messenger at the office who
attends to that branch of the service
and who was bribed for the paltry
amount of 20 cents, raised by contrib
ution on the part of the night clerks
at the office, to remove the cat. The
exact location of the cats final resting
place has not been given out, but it
is said that the eXecutioner has fur
nished a written guarantee that the
cat won't come back Ted was not
a handsome cat, and it has been said
that he was SO homely that his moth
er disouned him when but kit, but
he was a good ratter, and it was be-
cause of that fact that he held his job
at the federal building. Advancing
age. however, coupled with chronic
dyspepsia were proving more or less
oG deterrent to Ted's comfort. and
rather than to have him experience
the discemforts of a cold winter it
was decided that it would be much
better if his going hence were brought
about at a time when the tints OF
autumn We're still upon the foliage.
and the warmth of Indian summer in
the air. And he went.

aEce Of Columbus day, with about 100
seated at the banquet tables.
The banquet commenced at 8 2. NJ

lows:
You are here tonight to celebrate
a purpose, you are here 10 celebrate

together for purpose. 1t is fitting tina
lyon should celebrate this day because

loWsbip bul ii Is in the influence o.
the order to which you belong"
The wonderful feat that the grea
dHseoverer Of this land accomplished
his one predominant thought. and th'
success attained was thoroughly dis
cussed by the speaker. Rev. Mr. Draif
pictured the great drama of Column
bus. as he termed it, in the diseov
cry of this land in three scenes. Mr.
Drain is a speaker of pleasing person
atty and he was frequently interrupt
ed during the course of his talk by
bursts of applause.
