Mends a Tiny Hole


 "If kettle has tiny hole just begin- ming to leak, put some water into it, let it come to a boil, drop couple of pinches of cornmeal into it and let it boil few minutes more. It will stop the leaking almost immediately. l mended a teaket- tie in this way over year ago, and it has~not leaked so far It's a good thing to know in case of an emergency.
 "WILLINC CORNERITE"
 An unoommonly good thing to know if it will work every time the kettle begins to leak. I do not comprehend the philos- ophy of the remedy, it is true, but long ago learned not to doubt the assertion of trustworthy witness, because I did not at once understand the working of the principle that brought about surprising results. Our scientific students are invited to explain how the cornmeal stops a hole Tn the kettle. Housewives are invited to try the method upon leaky vessels and to report.

NEW SME[TER IS
GOING UP RAPIDLY

MIAMI, Ariz., April 2.-Thc con-
struction of the international Smelling
& Refining company 3 smeltcr, which is
to be one Of the largest and most COM
plete in the world is proceeding with
great rapidity. The total cost Of the
plant viii approximate $2,500,000.
Tons of earth and stone are being
the steam shovel which was last week
moved from the new reservoir of the
Inspiration Consolidated Copper COM
pany. said to be the largest privately
owned reservoir in the southwest. The
grading is being done by Macarthur
Brothers company under contract. The
contract calls for the preparing of
ground for three plots and a railroad
track it is estimated that tho work
will keep the steam shovel busy for
the next month.
The concrete floors for the new
smelter warehouse have been laid and
the interior of the warehouse office
The warehouse should be finished with
in two weeks.
The excavation for the foundation
of the 300-foot chimney Of the rever-
beratory furnaces has already reached
considerable depth. The building of
the chimney will soon be under way.
In connection with the building Of
the reverberatory furnaces, it will be
necessary to build temporary railroad
track, as plans of the management call
for bringing the molten metal a dis
tan@e of twelve miles, and hauling it
up the present switchback to the new
smelter site is not easy. Just how this
Stag and metal will be held in molten
condition during the long trip from
Globe to Miami is matter not easily
understood by the layman, Tho pots
can be placed on the cars without great
difficulty, but how they are to be kept
warm has not been explained.
One hundred and eighty concrete
piers have been put in position for the
bedding bins.
Work of assembling the material for
the smelter is progressing rapidly under
the direction of Superintendent Louis
r, Wallace. From two to five carloads
Of material arrive daily, and the
amount would be largely increased
were it possible to get as fast delivery
as is desired.

BIG SIX CONF F|RMED
Committee Named by Direc.
tors Reports East Vein Ore
Body Phenomenal.

The committee appointed by the di-
rectors Of the Lynn Big Six Mining
company last week to investigate the
reported strike Oh the Blk Six claim
has reported. For two weeks past let
ters have been received by a number
of persons In this city that phenomenal
paintings have been obtained from the
east vein, Very little information has
been obtainable from Mr.. Marshall, the
president and general manager, who has
been absent from the property the
greater part of the month. When
asked. the reply has invariably been
that the superintendent s reports would
be given out in due season, but that
partial and exaggerated reports would
be misleading and harmful.
The bars are now down and the state
mcnt is made by the board s committee
that the most phenomenal strike made
In Nevada III years has now been made
on this east vein at the 200.foot level.
The east vein, the secretary says, was
encountered at the 200 level after drift
ing 200 feet south Of east. Rich
tance of thirty feet here and there in
the vein and at a distance Of 23l feet
from the station there is a two-foot
vein of quartz extending to the south,
which is widening as drifting pro.
crosses. In obtaining a conservative
average for this two-fcet vein all sam.
pies showing free gold to the eye were
excluded and the assayer reports SIG
$53.60, $3.50 and $3.50 to the ton
The very high grade Of course does not
appear regularly. and is properly left
out in the sampling for the present.
The extent of the property, as re-
ported. is most extraordinary The
vein probably extends the entire length
Of the claim, as shown by open cuts
and shafts, is more than 200 feet in
depth, and how much more cannot be
conjecturcd.
The excitement at the camp, the com
mittee reports, is running high. The
miners are all stockholders and are re.
fusing all offers to sell when approached
by the people Of Carlin.

GETH||V LE ROY ORE
HIGH IN SILVER
Assays From Silver Island
Mine Show Over 275
Ounces.

In addition to the work being done
bv contract in it's new Green Tree tun-
mel. contract for 300 feet of which was
let few weeks ago, the Gethin LIE Roy
Mines company of Silver Island, west
of the Great Salt lake, is actively en-
gagged in a campaign OF development
and production on company account.
High up the steep, rocky and fissurcd
side of The mountain. 1900 feet from
the portal of the tunnel on the Gethin
lie Roy vein, and at an elevation OF
about 500 feet greater, the company is
doing some very interesting work. Here
on the main bssure or mother lode
shaft has been sunk TO a depth OF
eighty feet. and from tho bottom OF
this a drift run west on the vein has
ore, q far average sample. OF winch
lust brought in from the mine and as
sayed gives values as follows: Gold,
0o ounce: silver, 279.3 ounces; lead,
T22 per cent; copper. l.20 per cent.
This ore comes from point near the
intersection of the Gethin LIE Roy lat
era vein, which runs a little east of
north up the mountain, and the mother
lode whose general course is east and
west, This point is about 1900 feet
above where the vein was first opened.
The loading of a car from this deposit
is about completed at Wendover and it
is expected to arrive in the local mar
ket tomorrow. The smelter returns
from this consignment will be awaited
with interest
From the Gethin lie Roy vein tun-
mel. about 200 feet from its portal, a
crosscut was run l40 feet to a parallel
vein on which n drift was run into the
mountain. An average sample from a
point tbirty-fivc feet in on this drift
gave values as follows: Gold, .05
ounce; silver, 92.3 ounces; lead, Al per
cent; copper, $40 per cent. This ore
came from depth of about 175 feet
on what is known as the open-cut vein.
Twenty feet west Of this another vein
or lateral fissure on which IN surface
workings the ore runs $50 to $50 no
work except surface work has been
done on this vein.
The Green Tree tunnel, 300 feet of
which is under contract, is now in
twenty.one feet, and its face already
shows mineralized condition, with
three inches of vein matter already
opening up.
The ground on which the Gethin lie
Roy and other mines and prospects in
that vic ciniiy are located is scanned with
an elaborate system of fissure veins,
the great mother lode running nearly
east and west and sending off numer
ous lateral fissuTes whose general di-
rcction is north and south, 1t is an
interesting section Of the country and
one rich with promise in mining way.
