HOPE FOR COPPERMINES
IN THE NEAR FUTURE

General Manager Gray of Copper
mines company is now in the east,
where he has been for some time
past in consultation with directors
and large stockholders of the COM
pany. Mr. Gray is anxious to re-
sumo operations, and as the company
Is not a producer of the red metal.
there would seem to be no good reas-
on why development work should
not proceed. A meeting of the di-
rectors of the company was to have
been held on the goth. at which time
1t was expected that orders would
be made to continue churn drilling
work. Mr.. Gray is expected home
in the ear future.-Ely Record.

STAMP MILL is NOW
OPERATING AT ROCHESTER,

Rochester has made good, and to-
day as you come up Rochester can
yon you can hear the sweetest
music known to a mining camp. 1t
is the dropping of the stamps of the
Forvilly Rochester Mining company's
mill. which started Wednesday. Oct.
IA. to grind out the high grade ore
taken from their property on Lin
coin Hill. The Forvilly Rochester is
a valuable mine, and will doubtless
make handsome returns for its own
ers.-Lovelock Miner.

AMERICAN MINING
CONGRESS At PHOENIX

The seventeenth annual conven-
ton of the American mining con-
gress, which will open at Phoenix,
Ariz., Dec. Z for a five-day session,
bids fair to be of great benefit, not
only to the state of Arizona, but to
the whole southwest.
Mining men from every part of TIN
United States will be present ~
large numbers and the difficulties
and problems now confronting the
metal mining industry will be
threshed out and valuable sugges-
tions offered by men who have made
mining their life work and aided
largely in the many improvements
effected in this great industry dur
ing the past few years.
The work of the United States Blu
reau of Mines so far accomplished
and plans for future work, especial
ly as affecting western metal min
ing, will be explained by the direc-
tor, DR.. Holmes, assisted by a corps
of assistants. 1t is probable that a
demonstration car will be sent to
Phoenix during convention week.
Metal mining must always be one
of the greatest, if not the greatest
industry in the western states, and
this is particularly true of those
states embraced in that section
known as the great southwest. The
coming convention offers an oppor-
tunity to bring before the country
the of this territory that
should not be neglected.
The program for the entertain
ment of delegates, now being ar
ranged by the local committee, while
not yet completed. embraces auto
mobile trips to the Roosevelt dam,
the great smelling and mining oper-
ations at Hayden and Ray, and such
other forms of entertainment as
gives assurance that every minute
not occupied with the sessions of
the congress will be spent in such a
hammer as to leave a lasting appre-
citation in the minds of the visitors
regarding the hospitality of the val
ley jewellers.

Mountain Lions Active

Five colts and several calves have
fallen victims to a pair of mountain
lions on the old ranch of Jack Long
street, owned by o. X. Reed, near
Silver Bow. forty miles east of To-
nopah. This is the first time in
years that mountain lions have come
so close to habitations and is be-
lieved to be due to the fact that
coyotes upon whom the animals de-
pend for food are scarce.

SALT LAKE TO HAVE

PROMINENT MINING MEN AND
MANUFACTURERS MEET TO
DISCUSS MATTER

Salt Lake is to have an elaborate
and permanent exhibit of the min
ing and metallurgical industries of
bring before the tourists the resource
es along these lines. enative plans
for the exhibit were discussed yes
terday at a meeting of prominent
mining men and manufacturers held
in the offices of the Manufacturers
association of Utah in the Vermont
building.
The following committee, COM
posed of Ernest Bamberger, repre-
senting the mining men; E. L.. Car
ter, representing the coal interests;
J. M. Bidwell, representing the
American Smelling & Refining COM
pany, and w. H. Eardley, represent
ing the United States Smelling, Re
filming & Mining company, will meet
today with L. B. Hampton, chair
man of the exhibit of the Manufac-
turers' association; o. H.. Hewlett,

ways and means for the installation
of the exhibit in the Vermont build
ing.
Upon the invitation of John Dern
a number of prominent mining men
and manufacturers met and the plan
was preached. The idea is to have
represented in paper macne and in
relief all of the mining districts OF
the state. The exhibit will be eight
feet wide, nine feet high and sixty
feet in length. 1t will occupy the en-
tire west end of the ground floor,
and it is planned to have the exhibit
a permanent one.
1t will be built up to represent
the various mountain ranges of the
various mining districts, and will
show the mining plants as we'll as
the metallurgcal establishments. An
attempt will be made to have each
district reproduced in miniature.
Along the lower edge of the eX-
hibit will be a series of showcases
containing various mineral speci-
mems from the mining districts.
These will be secured so as to show
the way in which the various miner
ais occur in the gangue.
The plan was enthusiastically re-
ceived by all those present, and the
matter of the advertisement thai the
state would be able to secure was
brought out by reference to the ex-
hibit hat was had during the jubi-
lee year in 1897, when, on the site
of the present Deseret News build
ing, a building that was devoted to
a general exhibit during the jubilee
and which contained a mining eX-
hibit, retained the mining exhibit for
six months after the other exhibits
had peer removed. The mining eX-
hibit became the center of attraction
of the tourists.

The best ropers and most daring
rough riders of the whole Southwest
will gather in Albuquerque during
the state fair this year, to take fea-
ture parts in an entirely new kind Of
Frontier day celebration, to be made
one of the most important events Of
the big first week of October. Back
in the days before cattle roping ex-
hibitions were made illegal some fine
roping and riding contests were seen
at Albuquerque during the fairs.
Clay McGonagle for years the Amer
lean champion roper was seen in
those days and few other stars OF
his caliber. But this year the best
men in the business from all over
the West are coming to take part in
the Frontier day ON Saturday, the
final day of the fair, in which only
the stars who have won out in elm
nation contests running during the
entire week. will take part. II really
will be u whole week of sports dear
to the Western heart. for each after
noon the trials will take place from
which winners will qualify for the
final contests on Saturday. MIN
Bile New Mexico native goats, said to
be the hardest of all animals to rope,
will be used in the roping contests
and in addition to the unbroken Nav
ajo ponies which 100 Indians will
bring from the reservations, some
famous Western outlaws have been
secured for the riding contests. The
elimination contests are open to
riders all over the West and entries
already are coming in. The Frontier
day celebration will make Saturday
instead Of one Of the slowest, one OF
the most exciting days Of the big an
nual carnival.

MARINE STATION REPORTS
 SUCCESSFUL 1914 SESSION

Seattle, Aug. 2O-More research
 work was done for publication at
 the Puget Sound Marine station in the session just closed than in all
 the 10 previous years of the sta tiou's history put together. The station, which is at Friday harbor
 is maintained and directed by the University of Washington in cooper ation with other institutions for lab ratory practice and study of marine forms of life. A report on this summers work has just been made to President Landes of the university by Dr. T. c. Frye, professor of bot any in the university, wbo was dir ector of the station this year.
 Twenty-Five different institutions were represented in the student body, according to Professor Frye's report. In all, 73 persons attend cd the session; of these, 43 were regularly enrolled students. Twenty eight of the students took class work only nine were in a class of and six devoted them selves to research solely.
 The educational preparation which the students had as a basis for their work at Friday harbor was un-. usually high this year. Five had masters degrees; 19, baccalaureate degrees; nine were college seniors, six juniors, one freshman and three 5ub-freshmen. Twenty-seyen of the students and instructors came frol Washington; 15 from Kansas, and seven from seven other institutions
 Of the whole attendance, 39 were women and 34 men, and among the students regularly enrolled the wo- men outnumbered the men about two to one. Several lectures sup Dlemeutary to the regular course were given by the instructors. Twen- .y-three students were at work on different problems, and six of them their work. One already has sent the results of his investi- eatiou to a journal for publication.
