 COMING DOWN
Flue Dust Pipe Line Joints Going Into Water Convey ance Business-Make Fine Stuff for Service.

So much is going on around Bisbee all the time that folks really don't notice when a landmark is attacked and starts On the disappearance trail. This same observation being occa- stoned by the fact that during the last few weeks several links Of the huge flue dust chamber pipe up the side of Copper Queen mountain in ront of the railroad yard have been separated from the original column and hauled away. They have gone down to the vacinity of the Sacra- mento shaft, swhere they have been placed in canyons from which wa ters are to be conveyed in future 1nder sort Of personally conducted 'Xcursion arrangement, the same be-
 ng desirable by reason of important improvements that win thus be pre- .ected and the consummation of which is important to the best interests of.
 he mining property and the some hun 1reds Of men who make their 'way in and ont fthe Sacramento each day.
 Gradually, 1t is to te presumed. the big flue dust pipe line up the Hillside will disappear. The links Of this line are around 70 feet each in
 ength-maybe more. They are some nine feet high inside. Some stove pipe this stun Being Of iron they have considerable weight and a whole lot of resistance. Combination of these lraiities. together with the capaciOus and smooth bore they have on the in- ,ide of tho shell, makes these flue dust joints a happy idea when it aCmcs to putting in semi or whole culvert systems around the canyons of the mining properties The use at the Sacramento is probably only the beginning, for the Copper Queen Is carving on an immense amount of surface work one place and another abctu it's properties, which S'peTln- tendent Hoigson, evidently expects to have in just a seXcellent and clean as a pin condition as he has his mines underground.
 The flue dust lines up the side ot Copper Queen mountain are about the last reminder Of the historic old shelter days in Bisbee, so far as uent,/construction goes Or course the alag dumps remain--in nart-but not for long. for they are moving these cut tO the smelter TO. retreatment and for the making of road ballast
 For long time it has been won dered why tine huge iron cylinders did not come down from the mount ain side. either by their own VollLioh Or on the suggestion Of the company hui they have stayed on, with the exception of the section which d'G several wears ago break loose and spoil the symmetry Of the Hue dus, chamber at the bottom of the hue through the brick walls of which the iron crashed without a pause. Later the company strengthened the anchor Ijn4 of the flue dust conveyors as tbey have since been deprived of the chance to make voluntary change f base. The fact ftheir remaining created the impression on some body's part that there was immense diFcultg sure Of attending the taking down O fthe joints. and the story be- came current that this was 9 feat that engineers had determined to be 
 1t is still current Also it has been attended by ngUnerdus applications ! to tho company for a proposition on the taking down of the lines. Most people have wanted to do the work II some sort of a salvage basis, The company has declined each offer with cut explanation. or. the latter there is probably plenty provided by the uses to which the iron is now being turned.
