lean zone of ground was encount. t-ed in the shaft. and because poll q -s raided the metal market. It was identical with the formation cut by every deep shaft of the Amalgamated company in that camp. and the oper. ators went right on with their min ing. added new levels steadily, passed through the lean ground. anG now they again have the former sort of rich ores. and more of them than ever. They have also gathered in lot of new claims and added them to the former holdings of the com pany, observing their custom in this regard. until now they have very large holdings and right in the heart of the best mineralized portion Of this wonderful camp. The company Is making money. its shares are go- ing up in the market today. one of the exceptions to the generally slug gish list. and the annual report of the officers. soon to be distributed, will certainly please all concerned. These men had faith in North Butte. they know ground" and they win
 In the Ely, Nevada, camp. these Lake Superior copper miners took over Giroux. the indications looking lwell to them. There Was big work ahead. and many discouragements arose. There were strikes iund -hres, and when work was finally under vas there were excessive freight anh smelting charges that were pa;,rls prohibitye. But there was the Tore and its- value was appreciated. While Giroux contained a large acreage of lands well located, more was wanted and it has been obtained until nov the former Giroux has taken over several other properties in Ely and the whole has been brought under one head, the Coppermines Company. The new company will erect concentra- tor and shelter and proceed to get all there is in the ore for themseNes. As exploring work has proceeded new deposits have been found and sever al of the new properties are looking we'll On one of the claims of the old Coppermines company new vein has been shown that holds 2i feet of gold smelling ore.
 It was not so long ago that an em- inent "authority' on copper deposits predicted that Nevada Consolidated would be about whipped out in the next ten years. What foolish state ment Since then the Nevada Con solidated has shown up a deposit of ore of 100 feet in thickness, and but ting right up against GirouX claims There's enough ore in Nayada Con solidated to last for fifty years at the permines is credited with still greater tonnage. These formations are built up on big scale. and the Hines and granites of the Ely camp are the right kind and will be pro. ductive of ores indefinitely.
 These Lake Superior men are go ing to win with the Coppermines com. pany as they have at Bisbee and Butte. There's not the slightest doubt of it. They have enough al ready demonstrated in ores to prove it. and they are going to proceed in the right way so as to get all the profit for themselves. Copperminea will be an important concern in the copper list.
 And there are not many crowds fin the country that would have followed 1t so consistently and put up their money so freely.
 There are not many that would have pumped water from the Bisbee basin as did these men. When thou. sands were denouncing the mine as a "water-logged," worthless one these old copper miners were keep ! ing the pumps working and sending millions of tons of water down the mountainside that the mine might be opened, and borrowing millions to do it. And now it's a mine, a real one, rich and dividend earning. There was more than water in the earth al that location, and these men knew 1t.
 At Butte several properties known as Butte Coalition have also been made fine successes, all of them working and earning dividends.
 At Butte today { hey are putting down shaft on the Rainbow lode, their new company here being known as the Rainbow Lode Development company. It doesn't deriv0 It's title from any visionary, yapory prislnatic coloring after the manner of this phenomenon in the sky, but because the mineralized lode they are explor- ing describes great bow in travcrB- ing that section. The shaft is near ly 1000 feet below surface and they are now going to crosscut for the ore. Of course they expect to find 1t. That's what they are working for. If they do it will be another success. These Lake Superior copper min CTS. wliG.mine everywhere. have also much faith in their home district. in the one where they were born and
