New Cornelia Has Added S11,000,000 to Value of Calumet and Arizona

Based on the present selling price of the stock. and the gain in value of New Corneia bonds this property has already added over $11,0000O0 to the price of Calumet and Arizona, so that, based on the share value of the prop erty, New Cornelia has proved very important factor. Undoubtedly it's as- scciation with Calumet and Arizona has made New Cornelia all it is in the market. because it's value depends wholly On it's future activity.
 Calumet and Arizona took the prop erty after it had been turned down by several parties who did not care to take the risk of equipping it for the times there have been great improve ments made in the beneficiation Of quality of the ore it held. Since those Cres Of the porphyritic class, low grade, as they have generally been de- scrbed, but which. under treatments TOW applied, possess as great valCe as the higher grades in many mines.
 The fact that very large tonnages can be treated per day makes up for the advantages the higher grade ores l''fo0SS III hNhhtAtN pl iitlu per ton. Where ores can be mined with steam shovel from open cuts the cost of mileage is brought far below that of the underground mines with their deep shafts pumping of water, timbering. and the much that has to he observed in this plan of ore winning.
 New Cornelia will have very low mining cost due to the favorable con- dtions of the ore body. Many mill lien tons are above the level of the surrounding country, the ore outcrop rising to a height of nearly 150 feet above the desert floor in some places There IS practically no stripping of overburden, so that much of the orc can ne blasted from the sides of the outsrop and loaded by steam shovels directly into railway cars.

The Clean Up of Metals

The present generation has never tefore seen all the metals in such small supply. High and rising prices, with buyers asking for additional ship ments above their contracts and beg Elng for earlier deliveries, prove that demand exceeds production. Surplus stocks. for the first time in history, are exhausted in the case of copper. silver and even lead, and higher prices must be expected.
 When used as ammunition, copper. srelter and lead are no longer inde- Structible metals, to be used over again, and every foundering means the total loss of thousands of tons that must be replaced.

"Another Dab at Mining
 "Some time ago the Oasis comment ed upon the deleterious effect of the blue sky laws Cpon mine development, showing how in the efforts of law makers to reduce a gambling propOsi- ton to absolute business safety, they had diminished the exploitation .sand development of new mines, and driven from their profession hundreds of min ing engineers. while the classes in the schools ot mining engineering had fallen from hundreds to sceres.
 This week the Arizona Corporation commission has hit the mining indus t,N another dab. There has been pro mulgated q ruling that in no case will there be issued a license to sell stock tC any corporation without d provi- sion that all the treasury stock must be sold before the promoters shares may he offered for sale.
 There is a question whether any such ruling would be wise As point eG ou: in g former article many min ing companies are organized by men of limited means who have found good prospects and need money for develop ment. They sell treasury stock for funds to pay the cost of the work ID some instances they may need come money for their own personal use, and a sale of part of their shares gives it to them. All such. and there are hun dreds of them. are shut from realizing anything upon their property, by mak- ing legitimate sales of shares.
 Then in good properties there arises sometimes conditions in which there is no need to sell all the treasury stock The mine turns out so rich and valuable. the yield is so great that it reaches dividend paying basis before half of the treasury shares ! are sold. There have been such in- stances. The ruling would shut out ali sales of promoters shares, even with great value attached, and will ing purchasers wanting the stock. ! If regulation goes much farther the mining industry is doomed"

what she had heard to find out IL he
could or would solve the puzzling
problem.
While the girl was returning to the
show, Mrs. Lund and Chockro con-
tinued their deliberations. The plan
to put the Hindu In charge of the out
fit seemed most feasible, and having
written the letter, Mrs. Lund gave it
to Chockro.
Flip carried the naSvS of Doctor
Lund's death to the circls folk, where
the information quickly spread to all
departments. The rlLnager of the
show made a hurried start for the
Lund home, but when ne arrived Mrs
Lund sent word by the maid that she
was too overcome with grief to see

air.
In the confusion Flip was able TO
make little progress in his efforts to
reoch the struggling girl. The old
clown believed that If he could claim
her attention, that he might be able
TO pacIfy his half-crazed and greyious-
Nv afflicted child.
Suddenly by some strange Impulse,
peg turned from her attacks upon the
crowd and ran from the arena, toward
the dressing tents. The performers
had gathered there outside Of the ''big
top" and Peg ran into groups Of her
friends as she reached the back
door" Of the tent.
BY concentration Of sheer force, sew
eral of the men overpowered the girl
and literally threw her into one of the
smaller dressing tents. Flip hod
watched her leave the "big top" and
as fast as he could push his way
through the crowd, followed the girl
into the open.
"Shes in here, Flip" shouted the
men who had forced Peg into the
dressing tent. Go in after her, and
you may be able to handle her"
But as Flip entered one end Of the
tent, the girl fled screaming from the
opposite side. The show folk started
in pursuit followed her as she lodged
among the smaller tents, vaulting over
guy-ropes and scrambling in and out
among the various distractions.
When she finally disappeared they
| found her inside of a tent where
trunks and other baggage had been
| sitting on wardrobe box rocking
back and forth, moaning and crying
piteously. The show folk waited for
Flip to reach the tent, and then they
sent him inside with the hope that he
1 could now approach and soothe his
suffering child.
| The old clown approached very eau
tiously, while Peg still sobbed and
moaned. Flip crept up beside her and
slipped his arm around her waist.
Outside of the tent there was sud-
| den commotion-a small riot that at
tracted the attention of the perform
ers and called them away from the
tent where Flip was trying to soothe
his girl. A mob of spectators who
were seeking vengeance of Pegs sud-
den onslaught, had stormed the dress
ing tent.
The circus crowd, called to action
from a new quarter, hurried away to
combat the common enemy, and left
Flip alone to face the fury of his
still maddened girl. The old clown,
sure of his ability to control Peg, was
utterly unprepared for her sudden ac-
ton.
Flip had barely settled himself up
on the wardrobe case beside Peg,
when she suddenly attacked him with
greater fury than she had ever
shown before. Alone with the girl,
his cries drowned by the tumult raised
by the fighting and shouting mob out
side, the old man was quite at the
mercy of the Infatuated girl.
She sprang to her feet with tiger
like quickness. Snarling and grow
ling she grasped Flip by the throat
and bore him to the ground. Strug-
gle as he might the superhuman
strength of the maddened girl held
him completely at her mercy.
During the unequal struggle two
leering faces appeared at the entrance
to the tent and watched the fight with

The instant Mrs. Lund discovered

peeking through the portieres cover
ing the door, she contorted her face
into signs of agonizing grief and tear
fully approached her son with the In
formation that Doctor Lund had Just
that moment died. Her mock anguish
instantly swerved Peg and Flip from
their purpose, and young Lunds sin
cere sorrow made quick appeal to the
circus girls sympathies.
Peg spoke few consoling words to
Mrs. Lund and then drawing young
Lund gently aside, went with him to
the chamber where his stepfather lay
dead upon the floor. Left alone for
the moment with Mrs. Lund, the old
clown added his own condolences in
expressing his regret to the deceitful
and heartless woman.
Peg silently withdrew from the
death chamber and left young Lund
alone with his step-father's body.
Passing Mrs. Lund, as the woman hid
her face in mock grief, the girl sug-
gested to Flip that they leave the
house Of death and return to the
show.
In going through the entrance hall,
Pegs sharp eyes detected the Hindu
and one of his men sneaking through
an adjoining room. She whispered to
Flip to proceed alone, because she had
changed her mind and would see
young Lund again. The girl was anx-
ious that her daddy should not know
the reason for her sudden determine
ton, and she therefore left Flip with
out further comment and darted into
the drawing room.
Secretlng herself behind chair, the
girl was able to peek cautiously over
the high-backed rocker and observe
through a series Of connecting doors
that Mrs. Lund was in consultation
with the Hindu and his man. Watch
ing her opportunity, the girl crept
from room to room until she could
hear the conversation.

'Thats a good idea" Mrs. Lund re

GILBERT WITHDRAWS
HIS CANDIDACY
Especial eossssroaDsse. 70 Ao.sso JOURNAL

ESPECIAL Correspondence 70 MORNING JOURNAL
Roswell, n. NJ, June S.--One of the
most unexpected steps in a long and
bitter campaign came Tuesday when
J. c. Gilbert announced his with
drawal from the district attorneys
race. This following the announce
ment of withdrawal of X. X. Scott
and w. X. MeGill leaves the field
open to Robert Dow of Carlsbad.
Mr.. Gilbert said that he had found
that it would be a tremendous sacri-
flee for his friends in Curry and
Roosevelt counties to give him their
support under present conditions and
that he had decided to get out of the
race. Dow already had a lead of
more than 1900 votes in Chaves and
Eddy counties and it was believed that
ii was next to impossible for any one
of the other three candidates to over
come this in the two northern coun-
tics.
Mr.. Scott the present incumbent,
has not continued his campaign since
his defeat in Chaves and Eddy c9un-
ties but 1t was only a few days ago
that he made formal announcement of
his withdrawal. Mr.. Gilbert, after
the primaries in Chaves and Eddy
counties, went TO Curry county and
continued the campaigning which he
conducted in the two lower counties.
While politicians here did not believe
it possible for him TO overcome Dow's
lead the result was not regarded as
certain. Gilbert Kept up a strenuous
until a few days ago, when
he returned to Roswell aud today
made formal announcement OF his
withdrawal.
1t is believed here that this not
only makes the nomination of Dow
certain but also his election. The dis
trict is democratic by a large major
ity and If was only in the event Of
the nomination of a weak candidate
that it was thought the republicans
would make strong fight in the cam
paign this fail, for this particular Of
flee. The republicans will nov con-
eede this place. it is thought, without
a struggle.
