Asbestos Found Near Copper
 Basin.

The Copper Basin mineral belt has added another mineral to its list, in the discovery of asbestos, recently made by Joseph Hobbs. The ground has been located by MT. Hobbs and his partner, Fred Williams, who have a group of gold claims in the same vicinity. The mineral occurs in big dyke of serpertine, and is situated about three miles due north of Copper Basin and about one-half mile from Cottonwood spring. Samples of the asbestos which Mr. Hobbs brought to Prescott show flores about four inches in length. Within space of twelve feet there are five seams of the asbes- tos. the largest seams being about four inches in width. That the sec tion immediately south and west of Prescott is one of the most highly min- eralized zones in the west is indicated by the large number of minerals all ready discovered in that field, those which we call to mind being gold. sil- yer. lead, zinc. cinnabar, asbestos, molybdenum and copper. Mr. Hobbs believes that he will soon be able to also report the existence of bed of valuable fire clay In the Copper Basin section.-Prescott Courier.

County Assessor George Truman spent d couple of days at Ray this week aud while there had occa ion to visit the Owens mining claims m the Mineral Creek mining district known as Gold King and Gold Nugget No. }, over which the big law suit was waged in the superior court of this county last week. Mir. Truman brought back d specimen of ore about the size of a the precious metal, in fact the sample will assay as high as l5O,000S to the ton. The vein uncovered at the point from where the sample was taken is about three inches wide, but its depth and length have not been determined. MT. Truman also brought down small sample of ore taken from the 60- foot level on the Higgins property that shows 200S to the ton. If these prop. critics hold out to anywhere near the surface showing Mineral Creek will become the greatest gold mining camI the world has produced. That many fortunes will be made in this district
 is d foregone conclusion. Already cap. ital is looking toward the new gold field and it is safe to predict d big rush there before the summer is over Florence Blade.

Must Pay Double Price.

A special to the Boston Commercial from Butte, Montana, says: The Butte Duluth Mining company is not going to have It's ore mined by contract after all. A contract has been awarded by which private firm was to mine and deliver the ore at the mill at IS cents a ton, and the equipment was brought to the mine and was ready for install Butte miners union called on the man. agement and announced that it could not be done, being against the rules of the union.
 So the scheme had to be abandoned and the company continues to break down and tram the ore by day labor and mule power. However, under the rules of the union, it is said, the con- pany may put in d steam shovel sys tem of its own, and this will be done in time; in fact. arrangements are al ready under way; but it will neces- sarily be sometime before the outfit can be purchased and delivered.
 It is now costing the company from 8 to 50 cents ton to mine ard deliv- CT the ore at the mill. When the Du- luth plant was first put into operation a contract was made with miners to do the mining at 6l cents ton, and that was satisfactory to the union; the men made good pay at it. Later the company took the work over and has been doing the mining at cost as low as 34 cents ton.
 Gradually the Butte Duluth is re- ducing it's operating costs to mln- imum. Recently an electric motor system for carrying away the tailings was instituted and that work is done at cost of about two cents ton. i've expect that with the operation of the new l000-ton crushing plant, the installation of the new battery of teaching machines and the steam shov- el mining system, that we will be able to show results in the cost of produc- ,ng copper that will be most astound- ing,' said Supt. Sherwood "The real effect of the improvements ano econo mics that we are making will not be known until the latter part of the coming summer. when the figures will speak for themselves"
 It is expected that the new crusher and teaching plant will be in operation within a week. Three of the five teaching machines are in position and the other two will be in place within ten days. A new battery of 10 cells in the electrolytic cellhouse have been put in operation. making 40 cells now in use. Work on the new cellhouse has begun. The building is to be 190 feet long. paralleling the old cellhouse. For the purpose of reducing the cost of mining for the present the company will install the trapping system.
 The April showing of the Butte Duluth broke all previous records There were mined and milled 3464 tons of ore, 7S,3S0 pounds of copper produced, and 22,000 pouads of cement copper. The acid consumption per ton was l5 per cent less than in any former month.

cally TO Ossining. The section between
Hastings and Peekskil is very largely
occupied by large estates, and the activ-
ity in this regard has been exceptional
during the last year.
In this section of Westminster County
are numerous country clubs and broad
educational facilities. both private and
public The St. Andrews golf links are
widely known The Ardsley Country Club
is one of the largest and one Of the finest
clubhouses in the suburbs. The purchase
Of the Elliot F. Shepard estate, just
north Of Tarrytown, by the Sleepy Hollow
Country Club. has made one Of the most
magnificent out-of-door clubs in the
world. The residence on this estate alone
has cost more than 100000. and large
sums have been spent in the building Of
Italian gardens and beautifying the prem
ises.
Altogether. Westchester County, along
the Hudson. from New York City's boun-
Diary line to the gateway Of the Highlands
at Peekskill. enjoys certain unusual nat
ural advantages. Its outlook upon Amer
ica's finest river In the most impressive
part of It's course is che that the most ar

IN this section, and has built

landholders IN this section. and has built
a number Of extensive country houses
which he has sold or leased to his friends.
Practically all Of this district has been
absorbed in these large estates. and the
development OF small homes has been
forced further up the river.
Typical of the substantial nature Of the
growth of the Hudson River section is
Park Hill situated in the southerly part
of Yonkers. Park Hill is one of the most
beautiful residence parts in the nearby
suburbs, situated as it Is on the crest Of
one of the highest hills OF this section.
The westerly portion OF this park COM
mands excellent views of the Palisades,
the Hudson and surrounding country,
sloping to the eastward. Magnificent
country views are obtainable. Park Hi!
comprises approximately 30 residences,
costing from $1,000 TO so. 900. and Is devel-
oped by the American Real Estate Com
pany, with all improvements Installed.
In Yonkers are many residences built
within the last year among the most pre-
tentious being the estate OF ]. NJ. Thomp-
son. on North Broadway, which will cost
when finally completed upward Of mill
ion dollars The estate OF Billie Burke az
Ha ngs-on- Hudson has been completely
rebuilt within the last year and is now
one of the show places of the section.
Hastings on-Hudson has enjoyed most
phenomenal growth recently. the popula-
ton being increased lis per cent In the
last four years.
River View Manor. which is practically
part OF the village situated on the rolling
hiIlsides and commanding some OF the
most unlimited views Of the Hudson, the
Palisades and the Ramapos, has had
remarkable building activity, 1872 houses
having been erected on this property and
occupied by the owners. These residences
have cost from 1900 TO $1,000 each. and
the promise of equal activity in the build
ing line for the coming year is eXcep-
t,onal. This property comprises some 2o'
acres, formerly the Hengrer and Flower
estates. and has been developed with
every public utility and modern conven-
fence, which is largely. no doubt respon-
sible for its tremendous and substantial
growth. Forty-three houses were erected
in the year 1918. The completion or the
paving of Warburton avenue from the
