UNIQUE MINING
METHOD At RAY
Mountain is Gradually I'm
dermined and Allowed to
Settle Into the Earth.

Ray. Ariz., Nov. 3.-Many mining
companies have removed an entire
mountain of ore and many companies
have removed an immense amount OF
over burden to get at a mountain OF
ore but the Ray Consolidated Copper
company. of Ray is removing a noun
tain Of ore without removing the Dur
den material that lies above IT,
The method used is a system Of top
slicing, that is, the removal Of slices
from the top Of the ore body, support
ing the loose ground lying overhead
bv means Of timbers. after the slice rs
removed, the ground is allowed 10 sub
side and the next slice is attacked
In order to protect the workmen
from premature caVing. board IloOr
is laid and the caved ground falls upon
this floor. Then. wnen the next lower
slice is being removed, the board floor
serves as a roof and another floor IS
laid AS they go deeper, the mat OF
timber becomes greater and hence the
protection of the men is greater.
This system has been used Tor some
considerable time and gradually the
top of the mountain under which they
are working Q is getting lower ana
lower. It is now about 100 feet lower
than when the operations started. The
sinking Of the mountain top is gradual
and almost imperceptible except that
where Ray mountain, once fairly high,
had stood. is now but a hill, and in time
viii become almost level
1t looks TO the layman as though
this method Of removing slices OF ore
would be an expensive one, but the
Ray Consolidated people are extracting
5000 tons daily at cost OF less than
so cents per ton for the ore mined
They are making copper for a little
over s cents a pound, and are produc-
ing at the rate OF 100000 pounds
annually
The RAY Consolidated is more like a
manufacturing proposition, as they
have few OF the worries of ordinary
mining. having no new ore deposits TO
discover and develop. The plant is Lara
out and working almost autOmatically.
producing large quantities Of copper
at an exceedingly low price.

THAW'S TRIAL.

The average person would need to have the legal knowledge of judge of the supreme court of the United States in order to be able to under stand the Thaw case. He is now be- ing tried for conspiracy to escape from the Matteawan Insane asylum, but the defense is not allowed to introduce any testimony tending to show that the man is sane or insane although if he is still crazy the supposition on the should not be tried for a criminal offense but should be immediately sent back to where he escaped from
 Or the other hand it appears to be the contention of the counsel for Thaw that if he ever was insane that he has since been cured and is no longer danger to a community if allowed at large.
 Thaw was acquitted of the murder of Stanford White on the ground of insanity and there is no doubt but that he was mentally unsound or he would never have led the life he did nor have acted as he did. What effect his several months of liberty have had upon him is problematical. but it is being remarked by those who were present at his trial for murder and in the present case that he ap- pears to be an altogether different man now to what he was then, he being more quiet taking a more sen sible view of things and less lia ble to annoy his counsel It does not look as if he will escape punishment for escaping from Matteawan but what he will do after that case is disposed of is what is puzzIing the prosecutor as well as the lawyers for the defense. It is also annoying Thaw, who prob- ably realizes that if he is once more back in the insane asylum that he will not get another chance to escape and may stay there for the balance Of his life. It does not seem as if there are any more law points that can be raised in his behalf.

If he marries a law part her it. will always be because the IT, resistible force that impels marriages has been eXerted under unusual cir cumstances. In fact, when lawyers wed lawyers it would be better for their mutual happiness that they should practice apart and avoid all

Even under the new dispensation both man and wom- an will yearn for some sort of domes- tic peace, and what is true of lawyers welded to lawyers will be true also Of civil engineers, jewellers, editors, and importers.

For that reason we prefer to believe that the women who intelligently take up the wifes calling an ex ceedingly honorable one. will en- deaVor to encourage their husbands in thelr professional and commercial tasks, without bodily invading their ouslness fields. as competent and cherished wives have ever done. and that, the worlds affairs prospering as we have reason to hope they will decent husbands will continue to SUD- port their wives and upbuild their homes.

 In view consequently of the above hasty exposition of large subject, it is not true that priest and choir do all in Catholic churches, even if 1t IS the lonesome opinion of the Rev. MT. Bodley. The priest officiates at the sacrifice and the people are united with him by their presence before the altar and united with the sacri- flee by their faith and devotion. They take a part in the worship which Is consistent and compatible With as sistance at a great act of religious sacrifice. AS far as the choir is con- cerned it is not essential to our WoF- ship! You notice that in the above classical description of the Mass py Cardinal Newman no mention is made of choir. It merely stands in the same relationship to the Mass as re- gal garments to the person of the king The truth is that people and choir do not do all but that the alI is the Sacrifice of the Mass which is not only the essence of Cathollc worship, but the reason for every thing else in the Catholic church.
 It might seem to certain people that I am taking them rather ser iously; and their remarks rather too seriously Nothing new, however, has come out of St. Marks edifice The Catholic church in her long and glorious history never, yet had an enemy who knew her. and her chil- dren are never surprised to find them- selves misrepresented by people who are not acquainted with the essen tials of their faith or their Wor- ship.
