QUICKSILVER REDUCTION

The metallurgy of all three is practically the metallurgy of theiI sulphides, and the difference Of their metallurgical treatment arises from the different behavior of their respective ores. It is my purpose to trace with some particularity these differences. and observe to what var iatiors in practice they have led. In the opinion of most technical persons, the metallurgy of mercury is in backward state as compared with that of the others cited and this is in a certain measure true. They cite as eV- idence of this presumed condition the dearth of careful and thorough de- scriptions of processes, the lack oi published analyses of quicksilver ores and products, the time worn nomen- clature used by the trade. wherein the output of the furnace is estimated IT Tasks Ca flask contains 75, 76, or 7612 ID. according to the place of produc- tion) and especially the want of those accurate accounts of mining geology and operation tQ which we have be- come accustomed in connection witt the mining and treatment of the oth- CT metals.

Some Dividends

For the months of 1916 just ended,
 III companies have declared dividends totaling $46.1s0.2s6. This is sl0,340,-
 jS5 in excess of the dividends paid during the same period in the banner year 1913 and is s21.6SS,S04 greater
 than was paid in the same period in
 1915 The total amount paid by these
 companies since incorporation is s1,-
 l06, S3S, 1892, a return on the outstanding share capital of 13S per cent.
 When compared with the returns
 made in other industries it is not to be wondered at that shares of oper- ating mining companies are so at tractive to investors making returns as they did in 1915 nearly double those l made by railroads and national banks 1 combined, which year by the way, will fall far behind the 1916 record. And 1 that there is greater safety in mining investments than in general commer- 1 cial enterprises is evidenced by sta | tistics showing that where only 36 pel l cent of all legitimate mine investments
 fail, general commercial enterprises fail 10 the extent of 54 per cent (Mining and Engineering World).

put previous to that the rate had been S1.50 per share for three years and previous to that 50 cents or a dollar was paid
 The dividend for the first quarter of 1916 was $2.50 per share and it is ex- pected that the disbursement for the second three months which will short ly be declared, will be $3 and perhaps more. There has been some confus- ion among investors in looking over the record of Old Dominion as many fail to remember that the stock traded in is the holding company which de- bends for it's income on the receipts Of dividends from the two operating companies, ono being the Old Dominion of New Jersey and the other the United Globe and it is the combined earnings of these two companies that should he considered.

THE FUTURE OF COPPER
w. R. Allen, President of Boston & Montana Development Co.,, Ex-
 poets Prices to Remain Hiah

w. R. Allen, former lieutenant gov ernor of Montana. and president of the Boston & Montana Development Co in an interview with a representative of the Boston Financial News. says that in his opinion the fact that the copper market of this country was in the hands of a few large dealers was for the best interest to the copper trade. He added that he believed that in any commodity which was in gen. eral use. standardization was a favor able factor.
 With regard to the future of copper prices, MT, Allen said it was his opin- ion that the industry would witness satisfactory quotations for the next i've vars at least. and that he did not think the level for the metal would go below 20c a pound for number of years. He added that 40c copper might come. but expressed the hope that this could be avoided. as such z level would not be indicative of healthy conditions.
 He explained his view on the future as follows: World government and world policing thus far are merely matters of talk. No matter which side loses the war the vanquished will re- haoilltate their armies and navies Theoretically peace talk may be all right, but to ask the nations of the world to disarm just now would be like requesting the dismissal of the New York Police department and ask the city's citizens to be good. The time for disarmament has not yet ar rived. It takes copper metal to carry on war and 1t will take copper met. l al in peace times to rehaDilitate tn, | efficiency of the armies and navies O l the world.
 In my opinion, also, the time i
 coming when instead of hauling coa

Mrs. William p. Harper. director of the national federation or women clrbs. believes that the great task or the members of the clubs in the west is to see that things are not started wrong. Each section of the coun- try has its own, it's peculiar needs anu | conditions, which give the clubwomen Of that district or state some vital work to accomplish" she said in a re- cent signed article in the New York Evening Post
 Most of the movements" she
 writes need concerted action, and
 the federation of all the clubs of that section can best grapple with and ac- complish them.
 What could a few desultory clubs

 In the far west-"out where the
