Plan Smelter For
TheF'ife Property

DOS CABEzAS, Ariz, Nov. o.
Plans for the building of a smelter at
the property of the Fife syndicate in
the Hill Top district are being consider
ed by r. o. Fife of Kansas City, who
has charge Of the work at the Hill Top
mine. Work of driving a 5000 foot
tunnel through the mountain is prac-
tically complete and the company is
preparing to drive another tunnel 100
feet lower in order to block out the
ore, which runs from one and one half
to ten per cent copper, and from 20 to
so per cent lead The formation also
carries good silver values. Over $780,
600 worth of machinery has been order
ed by the company, which is building
road from the mine to Rodeo, N M,
18 miles distant.

OLD MINE

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Nov. 2.-Pitts-
burgh capitalists backed by over ST.
100000 have taken over the McCabe-
Gladstone mines at McCabe, near
Humboldt, and will bring the property
to high state of operating efficiency
The deal followed an examination of
the property by Carl H. Wolf, presi-
dent of the Newark Bay Smelling and
Refining company of Newark, N. j. one
of the leading independent smenting
plants of the country. Pumps capable
of handling 10000 gallons of water a
day are to be installed at the mine,
which has been idle for years. Next
to the Congress mine, the Gladstone
McCabe was the richest gold producer
in Yavapai county, it's output in years
past being estimated at close to $5,-
100000. When the shaft reached the
sulphide zone the ores became too
complex for the reduction processes
in use at that time. Now, it is be-
lieved, the base ores can be success
fully treated.

EMPIRE STRIKE BIG

PARKER, Ariz., Nov. 9.-Hundreds
of tons of high grade copper ore run
ming from 80 to 40 per cent in copper
with gold values of from $40 to $50 a
ton have been uncovered by the Ari-
zona-Empire Copper Mines company
at Treasure hill. Altogether over 700,-
900 tons Of ore are in sight, all of which
is estimated good shipping ore. Re-
Gently a body of high grade ore was
opened to a width of twenty feet on the
sides Of the mountain. The company
has expended over $4,000 in road con-
Parker within the next rev weeks, at
the rate Of 100 tons day.

WENDEN SHAT 7
IS now DOWN
FIT TY F e 7

WENDEN, Ariz., Nov. 9.-Promis-
ing indications that ore will be struck
at depth have been encountered in
the shaft at the property of the Wen
den Copper company. At a depth of
fifty feet the shaft is in good looking
ore, not however, of big value. The
material is soft except on the foot
wall side. which is granite, hard and
smooth The contract work has been
completed, and work is to be carried
on hereafter by the company. The
hoist has been set up and the gall
lows frame finished so that the COM
pany can begin operations without
delay Superintendent Ormsby says
there is no doubt but that ore will be
found in the crosscut on the 100
level, which it is expected will shortly
be authorized A party of mining
men from Jerome who visited the
property last week went to Phoenix
and trid to buy Wenden stock, but
none was offered. Failing to obtain
any in Phoenix, they returned to
Jerome.

was recently taken over by D. M.
Locey and associates. Mill runs
are being made from all the zones in

WILDCATS ARE
STILL SCRAPPY

1T takes more than a deafeat to
kill Arizonas spirit" is the popular
slogan of the student body of the
University of Arizona. The Varsity
eleven returned last Monday from
California where they suffered defeat
at the hands of the Whittier team,
| and were received by Arizona's col
lege men and women as if they had
been victorious.
In losing a game in which they had
led for three periods did not leave
the varsity in the best Of spirits, but
as the student body accepted the re-
suit as avictory, rathrthanadefeat, en-
suit as a victory rather than de-
feat the team was able to do so and
are going about their practice with
renewed vigor and determination.
Although the Arizona Wildcats"
have four hard games yet remaining
on their schedule, they are lending
all their efforts to the preparation
lOT LIE s5dIIlc Will IliS ANOW 4AOAANN
Aggies on Friday Nov. 18th. The
Aggie game is always a headliner
and the u. Of A. is bound to win
it this year. Lose all games if ne
cessary, but defeat the Aggies," is the
war cry of the Wildcat team and
their supporters.
New material has appeared on the
field since the team returned from
California. Four stars of fame of
last year, who have been unable to
turn out because of heavy courses,
have listened to the call of college
spirit and are on the field prepar-
ing for the coming trays. Meredith,
Hodgson and Reggs are all new foot
ball men, and are showing good stuff
on the practice field. Renaud, last
year "A" man, has also donned foot
ball armour for Arizona.
Coach McKale is working hard
with his squad and intends to turn
out a team that will surpass the one
that the started the season in every
way. With the new sertngth Ari-
zona's Wildcats are looking forward
to winning every other game this
season.

SMEITERS GIVE
TRUE RETURNS

The idea seems prevalent among
men operating small properties in
mining districts of Arizona that the
smelters and custom mills have, in
many cases, given false returns on
ores that are sent in for smelling and
treatment With a view to ascertain
ing the facts Of the case, the Arizona
State Bureau of Mines has conducted
an investigation and has found that it
would be utterly impracticable for any
smelter or mill to so falsify it's meth
and still give the shipper one-half Of
the sample to allow check assays to
be made Bulletin No. 26 of the Ari-
zona State Bureau of Mines was writ
ten with the idea of showing the small
shipper how to sample, so that he may
sample his ores before shipment to
ascertain the correct value, thereby
having check on the smelters. Smilt
er methods of sampling are given in
considerable QeCall, SO LnaC the reaO0f
may determine for himself that, owing
to the great changes in the routine
and the large number Of men who
would be concerned in any falsifying
system, the smelters could not afford
to give incorrect returns.
1t must also be considered that when
the Copper Queen mine, for instance,
ships to the Copper Queen smelter,
the smelter purchases the ore precisely
the same as they do the ore Of the
man who ships ten tons, and the
sampling and umpires are done under
the same conditions.
Details as to the smelter methods of
sampling are given in Bulletin No. 26,
Arizona State Bureau Of Mines, en-
titled mill & Smelter Sampling," by
H. J. Stander and may be obtained by
writing Charles F. Willis, Director,
Arizona State Bureau Of Mines, Tue
son, Arizona.
